  • Hesiod Theogony.Pdf
    Hesiod (8th or 7th c. BC, composed in Greek) The Homeric epics, the Iliad and the Odyssey, are probably slightly earlier than Hesiod’s two surviving poems, the Works and Days and the Theogony. Yet in many ways Hesiod is the more important author for the study of Greek mythology. While Homer treats cer- tain aspects of the saga of the Trojan War, he makes no attempt at treating myth more generally. He often includes short digressions and tantalizes us with hints of a broader tra- dition, but much of this remains obscure. Hesiod, by contrast, sought in his Theogony to give a connected account of the creation of the universe. For the study of myth he is im- portant precisely because his is the oldest surviving attempt to treat systematically the mythical tradition from the first gods down to the great heroes. Also unlike the legendary Homer, Hesiod is for us an historical figure and a real per- sonality. His Works and Days contains a great deal of autobiographical information, in- cluding his birthplace (Ascra in Boiotia), where his father had come from (Cyme in Asia Minor), and the name of his brother (Perses), with whom he had a dispute that was the inspiration for composing the Works and Days. His exact date cannot be determined with precision, but there is general agreement that he lived in the 8th century or perhaps the early 7th century BC. His life, therefore, was approximately contemporaneous with the beginning of alphabetic writing in the Greek world. Although we do not know whether Hesiod himself employed this new invention in composing his poems, we can be certain that it was soon used to record and pass them on.

  • Salmacis, Hermaphrodite, and the Inversion of Gender: Allegorical Interpretations and Pictorial Representations of an Ovidian Myth, Ca
    Chapter 3 Salmacis, Hermaphrodite, and the Inversion of Gender: Allegorical Interpretations and Pictorial Representations of an Ovidian Myth, ca. 1300–1770 Karl Enenkel Introduction: The Ovidian Myth and Its Gender Narrative Although from antiquity on, the concept of the nymph has included a great variety of minor deities connected with different local cults and various habi- tats, all nymphs seem to have in common that they were imagined as young, beautiful, gracious girls, and that they were thought to behave in a female and feminine way; if attached to Diana, they were believed to act as virgins. The myth of Salmacis, however, refers to a different kind of nymph: a nymph that excels in the inversion of “normal” gendered behaviour, and that was thought to have caused the disturbing bodily phenomenon of Hermaphroditism.1 The myth as it was depicted and interpreted in the early modern period is entirely based on a literary invention by Ovid, in his Metamorphoses (IV, 288–388).2 Ovid’s highly imaginative story, however, does not give an account 1 On the physical and medical phenomenon of Hermaphroditism in Greco-Roman antiquity and in the Renaissance (which in itself will not be the topic of this contribution) cf., inter alia, Brisson L., Sexual Ambivalence: Androgyny and Hermaphroditism in Graeco-Roman Antiquity, transl. J. Lloyd (Berkeley, California U.P.: 2002; originally French, Paris: 1999); Long K.P., Hermaphrodites in Renaissance Europe (Aldershot: 2006); Duval Jacques, Des Hermaphrodits […] (Rouen, David Geuffroy: 1612). 2 Except for Ovid’s narrative in his Metamorphoses, there are no Greek or Latin sources from antiquity that provide other substantial versions of the myth.

  • God Is Transgender
    GOD IS TRANSGENDER In what was an intellectual high for the New York Times, the Gray Lady printed an op- ed article titled “Is God Transgender?” by a New York rabbi named Mark Sameth. Related to a man who “transitioned to a woman” in the 1970s, Sameth contends that “the Hebrew Bible, when read in its original language, offers a highly flexible view of gender.” He puts forward many historical examples of gender fluidity in the Hebrew scriptures, in order to maintain that religion should not be put in service of “social prejudices” against transgendering. His treatment of the Bible amounts to excellent scholarship. Proposing that the God of Israel was worshipped originally as “a dual-gendered deity,” the rabbi asserts, that the etymological derivation of Yahweh is “He/She” (HUHI). His argument requires that the Tetragrammaton be read, not from right to left (as Hebrew always is), but from left to right: The four-Hebrew-letter name of God, which scholars refer to as the Tetragrammaton, YHWH, was probably not pronounced “Jehovah” or “Yahweh,” as some have guessed. The Israelite priests would have read the letters in reverse as Hu/Hi—in other words, the hidden name of God was Hebrew for “He/She.” Some biblical scholars say that “Yahweh” is derived from the third-person singular of the verb “to be” (hayah), whether a qal imperfect (“he is” or “he will be”) or the causative hiphil imperfect (“he causes to come into being, he creates”). This view is confirmed by numerous lines of evidence: the interpretation given in Exod 3:14 (“Say to the sons of Israel, ‘ehyeh [‘I am’ or ‘I will be’ (who I am/will be)] sent me to you”); the use of shortened forms of Yahweh at the end (“Yah” or “Yahu”) or beginning (“Yeho” or “Yo”) of Hebrew names; the spelling “Yabe” known to the Samaritans; and transliterations “Yao,” “Ya-ou-e,” and “Ya-ou-ai” in some Greek texts.

    A REPORT ON A SMALL COLLECTION OF SHRIMPS FROM THE KENYA NATIONAL MARINE PARKS AT MALINDI, WITH NOTES ON SELECTED SPECIES by A. J. BRUCE Heron Island Research Station, Gladstone, Queensland 4680, Australia With 23 text-figures The marine caridean fauna of East Africa has been little studied. Prior to World War 1, German authors produced a number of general studies but the emphasis of these papers was on crabs. Most of the carideans are reported from Zanzibar. Hilgendorf (1869) reported two unidentified species of Alpheus from Zanzibar. Pfeffer (1889) reported Coralliocaris graminea also from Zanzibar and in 1894 Ortmann added the hippolytid Saron marmoratus. Lenz (1905) reported three pontoniine shrimps, two hippolytids and six alpheids from Zanzibar. In 1905 also, Nobili reported Gelastocaris paronae from Zanzibar. The first World War terminated these studies and there seems to have been little further interest until Taramelli (1955) reported again on the crustacea of Zanzibar, recording five species of shrimps, three of which were not previously recorded. The present study is based upon the results of collecting from shallow water in the Casuarina Point and Watamu National Marine Parks at Ma- lindi, Kenya, over a period of three days during spring tide conditions, in March, 1973. Collections were kept as generalized as possible and no special efforts were made to concentrate on special habitats. A total of 67 species are represented in the material collected, but these are considered to represent only a small portion of the total variety present. The collection is noteworthy for the presence of a number of rare or little known species as well as one new species, but also for the absence of a considerable number of common and well known shrimps that have been found to be widespread on East African coasts.

There are several quite long series from this source, retaining the alphabetical order in which they were arranged, Nos. 215-312, 403-423, 541- 562. It is correspondingly poor in poems from Meleager s Stephanus (Nos. 313-338). It contains a good deal of the Alexandrian Palladas, a contemporary of Hypatia, most of wliich we could well dispense with. The latter part, from No. 582 07iwards, consists mostly of real or pretended in- scriptions on works of art or buildings, many quite unworthy of preservation, but some, especially those on baths, quite graceful. The last three epigrams, written in a later hand, do not belong to the original Anthology.

  • The Meditations by Marcus Aurelius (One of Two)
    The Meditations by Marcus Aurelius (one of two) Introduction This document is a commentary of sorts on the Meditations by Marcus Aurelius which consists of twelve short books. The intent is to enable the reader to approach the text in the spirit of lectio divina. This is phrase is usually reserved for reading the Bible and other Christian literature in a slow, meditative fashion, but it can be applied to an ancient philosophical text. The text at hand achieves this by inserting key transliterated Greek terms which includes cross references to the same word or similar words. Usually the last reference to a particular word or phrase is employed, working backwards. The Meditations is a late example of Stoic philosophy and can used as an introduction to it. The English text of George Long was downloaded from http://classics.mit.edu, The Internet Classics Archive. An updated version of the Long edition may be found in the Dover Thrift Edition (1997). BOOK ONE 1.1. From [para: alongside, in the sense of being present to Verus. Each section of Book One begins with this preposition.] my grandfather Verus I learned [not in Greek text] good morals [kaloethes: kallos & ethos: beauty custom or disposition] and the government of my temper [aorgeton: lack of anger; orge: natural impulse or temperament]. 1.2. From [para] the reputation [doxa: opinion, estimation] and remembrance [mneme: or mention, a living presence as opposed to mere memories] of my father, modesty [aidemon: bashfulness; can also pertain to a sense of shame] and a manly character [arrenikon: pertaining to the masculine gender and connotes robustness].

  • The Expressive Prepuce: Philo's Defense of Judaic
    The Studia Philonica Annual 31 (2019): 127–161 THE EXPRESSIVE PREPUCE: PHILO’S DEFENSE OF JUDAIC CIRCUMCISION IN GREEK AND ROMAN CONTEXTS* THOMAS R. BLANTON IV As it has been thoroughly documented in a number of works, from Menahem Stern’s monumental Greek and Latin Authors on Jews and Judaism, first published in 1974, to Andreas Blaschke’s exhaustive treatment in Beschneidung: Zeugnisse der Bibel und verwandter Texte (1998) and Simon Claude Mimouni’s La circoncision dans le monde judéen aux époques grecque et romaine (2007), the history of circumcision as portrayed in Greco-Roman literary sources commenting on Jews and in Jewish literature itself is well known.1 What is not frequently brought into discussions of Jewish circum- cision, however, is the wealth of evidence from Greek art and comedy and Roman visual humor, where we discover elaborate systems of signification attached to the phallus, and more specifically, to the prepuce and exposed * Earlier versions of this paper were presented in a public lecture at the University of Fribourg on Oct. 11, 2018, and at the “Abraham as Ritual Model” workshop held at the Kleine Synagoge under the auspices of the Max-Weber-Kolleg für kultur- und sozial- wissenschaftliche Studien, University of Erfurt, on Dec. 17, 2018. My gratitude goes to Sandra Jaeggi and Philippe Guillaume for organizing the public lecture, to Philippe for his kind hospitality after the lecture, and to Claudia Bergmann, with whom I organized the workshop in Erfurt. Much of the research for this paper was completed as a fellow in the Research Centre “Dynamics of Jewish Ritual Practices in Pluralistic Contexts from Antiquity to the Present” at the University of Erfurt from July through December, 2018.

  • The Characters of Theophrastus, Newly Edited and Translated by J.M
    THE LOEB CLASSICAL LIBRARY EDITED BY T. E. PAGE, LITl-.D. E. CAPPS, PH.D., LL.D. W. H. D. ROUSE, i.ttt.d. THE CHARACTERS OF THEOPHRASTUS HERODES, CERCIDAS, AND THE GREEK CHOLIAMBIC POETS (except callimachus and babrius) THE CHARACTEKS OF THEOPHRASTUS NEWLY EDITED AND TRANSLATED J. M. EDMONDS LATE FELLOW OF JESUS COLLEGE LECTURER IN THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE LONDON: WILLIAM HEINEMANN LTD NEW YORK: G. P. PUTNAM'S SONS MCMXXIX PA PREFACE The Characters of Theophrastus are a good wine that needs no bush, but it has been bottled anew, and new bottles may need a word of recommendation. The mere existence of an early English translation such as Healey's would hardly justify an archaistic rendering, but the Character, in the hands of Hall, Overbury, and Earle, has become a native genre, and that, I think, is enough to make such a rendering the most palatable. And this style of translation, taunts of ' Wardour Street ' notwithstanding, has a great advantage. Greek, being itself simple, goes best into a simple style of English ; and in the seventeenth century it was still easy to put things simply without making them bald. A simple trans- lation into our modern dialect, if it is to rise above Translator's English, is always difficult and often unattainable. In preparing the text I have discarded rfluch of my earlier work, in the belief, shared no doubt by many scholars, that the discovery of papyrus frag- ments of ancient Greek books has shifted the editor's PREFACE bearings from Constantinople to Alexandria. With the ' doctrine of the normal line,' exploded by A.
