 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 96.9.5
Burton goes on to suggest in a useful discussion that unlike Callimachus, whose women tend to be represented as sorrowing, subordinated or weak, Theocritus' poetry is filled with strong, controlling mothers and other powerful, erotic women, whereas the male characters in Theocritus (and in much other Hellenistic poetry) are often sexual ambiguous.
87-8, Burton argues, is undermined by the crudeness of his remarks and their inappropriateness to the ceremonial context; by thus disauthorizing the bystander's critical voice, the poem "discourages the complacency of an unreflecting reader's mocking stance" (108).
In Burton's view, the hymn, and the poem as a whole, may be read as "defying the cloistered limitations of the Alexandrian academy and suggesting that the aesthetic experience might yet have an active, public, and liberating effect in the world" (144).
