  • Some Problems in Prosody
    1903·] Some Problems in Prosody. 33 ARTICLE III. SOME PROBLEMS IN PROSODY. BY PI10PlCSSOI1 R.aBUT W. KAGOUN, PR.D. IT has been shown repeatedly, in the scientific world, that theory must be supplemented by practice. In some cases, indeed, practice has succeeded in obtaining satisfac­ tory results after theory has failed. Deposits of Urate of Soda in the joints, caused by an excess of Uric acid in the blood, were long held to be practically insoluble, although Carbonate of Lithia was supposed to have a solvent effect upon them. The use of Tetra·Ethyl-Ammonium Hydrox­ ide as a medicine, to dissolve these deposits and remove the gout and rheumatism which they cause, is said to be due to some experiments made by Edison because a friend of his had the gout. Mter scientific men had decided that electric lighting could never be made sufficiently cheap to be practicable, he discovered the incandescent lamp, by continuing his experiments in spite of their ridicule.1 Two young men who "would not accept the dictum of the authorities that phosphorus ... cannot be expelled from iron ores at a high temperature, ... set to work ... to see whether the scientific world had not blundered.'" To drive the phosphorus out of low-grade ores and convert them into Bessemer steel, required a "pot-lining" capable of enduring 25000 F. The quest seemed extraordinary, to say the least; nevertheless the task was accomplished. This appears to justify the remark that "Thomas is our modem Moses";8 but, striking as the figure is, the young ICf.

  • Horace - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Horace - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Horace(8 December 65 BC – 27 November 8 BC) Quintus Horatius Flaccus, known in the English-speaking world as Horace, was the leading Roman lyric poet during the time of Augustus. The rhetorician Quintillian regarded his Odes as almost the only Latin lyrics worth reading, justifying his estimate with the words: "He can be lofty sometimes, yet he is also full of charm and grace, versatile in his figures, and felicitously daring in his choice of words." Horace also crafted elegant hexameter verses (Sermones and Epistles) and scurrilous iambic poetry (Epodes). The hexameters are playful and yet serious works, leading the ancient satirist Persius to comment: "as his friend laughs, Horace slyly puts his finger on his every fault; once let in, he plays about the heartstrings". Some of his iambic poetry, however, can seem wantonly repulsive to modern audiences. His career coincided with Rome's momentous change from Republic to Empire. An officer in the republican army that was crushed at the Battle of Philippi in 42 BC, he was befriended by Octavian's right-hand man in civil affairs, Maecenas, and became something of a spokesman for the new regime. For some commentators, his association with the regime was a delicate balance in which he maintained a strong measure of independence (he was "a master of the graceful sidestep") but for others he was, in < a href="http://www.poemhunter.com/john-henry-dryden/">John Dryden's</a> phrase, "a well-mannered court slave".

Andromache has spoken the prologue (1–55), followed by dialogue with a maidservant (56–90) and further soliloquy (91–102), from which she proceeds to sing an unusual elegiac lament (103–16).1 This in turn serves as a proem to the Parodos,2, whose first stanza contains ——— * Mnemosyne 54 (2001), 724–30. 1 The transition from speech to song without speaker-change is already unusual. There are no other elegiacs in tragedy; but the words ἐλεγεῖον (the earliest attestations referring to epitaphs) and ἔλεγοϲ (first attested of elegiacs in Calli- machus) are certainly cognate. A hypothesis of precedents in 7th–6th century N. Peloponnesian poetry (D. L. Page in Greek Poetry and Life (Oxford, 1938), 206–30) is plausible, but does little to account for the form here. More certainly relevant are the elevated quality of dactylic metre (with epic colour) on Andromache’s lips; the appropriateness of repetition in threnody (here ‘epodic’); and (last but not least) the juxtaposition of 103–16 with 117 ff.

  • An Introduction to Latin Literature and Style Pursue in Greater Depth; (C) It Increases an Awareness of Style and Linguistic Structure
    An Introduction to Latin Literature and Style by Floyd L. Moreland Rita M. Fleischer revised by Andrew Keller Stephanie Russell Clement Dunbar The Latin/Greek Institute The City University ojNew York Introduction These materials have been prepared to fit the needs of the Summer Latin Institute of Brooklyn College and The City University of New York. and they are structured as an appropriate sequel to Moreland and Fleischer. Latin: An Intensive Course (University of California Press. 1974). However, students can use these materials with equal effectiveness after the completion of any basic grammar text and in any intermediate Latin course whose aim is to introduce students to a variety of authors of both prose and poetry. The materials are especially suited to an intensive or accelerated intermediate course. The authors firmly believe that, upon completion of a basic introduction to grammar. the only way to learn Latin well is to read as much as possible. A prime obstacle to reading is vocabulary: students spend much energy and time looking up the enormous number of words they do not know. Following the system used by Clyde Pharr in Vergil's Aeneid. Books I-VI (Heath. 1930), this problem is minimized by glossing unfamiliar words on each page oftext. Whether a word is familiar or not has been determined by its occurrence or omission in the formal unit vocabularies of Moreland and Fleischer, Latin: An Intensive Course. Students will need to know the words included in the vocabularies of that text and be acquainted with some of the basic principles of word formation.

BARKHUIZEN University of Pretoria ARCHILOCHUS FR. 34 WEST The trimeter is quoted by Apollonius Dyscolus because of the short final iota in &[.. ucrEJ[ and he gives no indication of the context. It is not surprising, therefore, that critics have postulated a variety of contexts, and it is the purpose of this note both to assess their arguments and to defend what seems to me to be the likeliest interpretation. In 1846 Friedrich Schneidewin,l who has been followed by many others right up to the present, saw in this fragment a reference to the myth of the Centaur Nessus who ferried Deianeira across the river Euenus. Nessus is addressing Deianeira and &t-ttcrEl[ is said to have a 'doppelsinnige Bedeu­ tung'. Schneidewin does not elaborate on the nature of this ambiguity, but presumably he means that Nessus, who was accustomed to demand pay­ ment (t-ttcr96c;) for his ferry-service,2 was prevailed upon in this instance to provide his service without a fee and that he spoke this line to Deianeira just before he attempted to violate her: In other words, Nessus is say­ ing that if he cannot have his usual t-ttcr96c;, he will have Deianeira herself instead.

Odes 2. 11.21 Not the least task for the recent bimillennial commemorations of Horace's death was to clarify his relations with half the human race.'^ Are they typified by a certain crudity in understanding the iambic genre? Archilochum propria rabies arnmvit iambo (Horace, A. P. 79). The student of the iambos is confronted with a paradox. On the one side, the exponent of the iambic style par excellence for Greeks and Romans alike is certainly Archilochus, notorious for his aggressive ("rabid") attacks on the daughters of Lycambes, which ultimately, as was said, drove them and their father to suicide. On the other, the misty origins of the pre-literary iamb are linked with Eleusis and the successful effort by lambe to reconcile Demeter to the loss of her daughter, Persephone. It seems unlikely that lambe can have prevailed on the grieving goddess by abusing in any Archilochian sense the ways of women—or of anyone else, since that would have served only to intensify an anger already intense enough. Yet the commentators knew it was from her name that the iambos took its origin. ^ In its ' Aii; Ei; Tov auxov ouk av Ejipaiiii; poov.
