The aim of the present work is the traduction and commentary of the book xlvii of nonnos' dionysiaca. . Nonnos of panopolis is a poet of the vth century p. C. Who wrote a christian poem, the paraphrase de l'evangile selon saint jean, and a pagan epic, the dionysiaca, composed from 48 books. In the book xlvii, dionysos, victorious over the indians, comes back to greece. After thebes, he arrives to attic, where he teaches vine-growing to the countryman icarios ; then he goes to naxos where ariadne has just been forsaken by theseus and he marries her ; probably a few years later, he goes to argos, hera's city, and must face perseus ; but the war doesn't happen : hermes reconciles the heroes and argos honours dionysos and ariadne (turned into stone by perseus). Book xlvii is very representative of the variety of nonnos' style because of the diversity of the episodes : pastoral, love and war.
