Virgil’s dactylic hexameters are recited not so much and not only to tell of the sport at the time of the Greeks, of the funeral games in honor of Anchise, of the regattas or of the fight which, at the time, were closer than ever to sensitive metaphors of war, as much as to stage the actor-athlete grappling with the rhythm, with the breath, with the interruptions of the race. And at the same time the feet, the arsi, the ictus or the thesis, are recited not so much and not only to remember the Virgilian poem or the swimmers of the Dionysiacs, but to mark the rowing, the hook, the arm stroke, the heartbeat of the athlete-actor.
