Comments[edit]

Was Eurydice whom Orpheus loved, one of the Napaeae? L Hamm 01:21, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bogus category: "Nymphs haunting forests, groves, and glens." is all Harry Thurston Peck had to say. An invention in Nonnus, Dionysiaca? A Renaissance invention? Essentially a poetical ludibrium of listmakers, not a real feature of the Greek or Roman imagination. Yes?--Wetman 21:45, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I checked the ever-reliable The Theoi Project and Napaeae only shows up on one page: in the section on early divisions by authors before the accepted divisions were created in folklore, and in the dictionary box (sorry, I can't remember the author/book). The only other source I recall that mentions Napaeae is Pierre DuBois's The Great Encyclopaedia of Faeries, and that's not much of a source, as most fairy descriptions in that book come from French Romanticist authors. 24.14.198.8 05:27, 22 June 2007 (UTC) Chris G.[reply]
