Conceptions of Disease Contagion in Ancient Literature by Katherine Marion Bernadette Smith a Thesis Submitted to the Graduate P
Conceptions of Disease Contagion in Ancient Literature By Katherine Marion Bernadette Smith A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in Classics in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada August 2013 Copyright © Katherine Marion Bernadette Smith, 2013 Abstract The “seeds of disease” theory that emerged in Europe during the Renaissance period was not an entirely novel concept at the time. Humans were aware of the contagious properties of certain afflictions long before it was possible for them to observe the microorganisms responsible for disease transmission, and ancient authors had already speculated about the existence of imperceptible creatures as a cause of illness. This thesis will show that through ancient literary works of every type permeates the recognition of disease contagion not only between humans, but also between animals of the same species, animals of different species and between humans and animals. Chapter One will examine cases of intra- species infection, beginning with those that do not specify precisely the manner in which the illness in question is passed from one being to another. Instances in which particular factors are noted as contributing to the spread of disease will also be presented, followed by examples highlighting the recognition of intra-species infection in animals. Chapter Two will address the three varieties of inter-species infection of which ancient people were evidently aware: zoonosis, anthroponosis, and xenoosis. Chapter Three will explore the prevalent belief among the ancients that uninterred corpses incited pestilences. Chapter Four will discuss ancient views concerning the contamination of drinking water, as well as cases of deliberate infection with disease— ancient precursors to bioterrorism. -

Renaissance Heraldry by Jennifer Kathleen Mackenzie a Dissertation
Renaissance Heraldry by Jennifer Kathleen Mackenzie A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Italian Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Albert Russell Ascoli, Chair Professor Frank Bezner Professor Beate Fricke Professor Diego Pirillo Summer 2017 Renaissance Heraldry ã 2017 by Jennifer Kathleen Mackenzie Abstract Renaissance Heraldry by Jennifer Kathleen Mackenzie Doctor of Philosophy in Italian Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Albert Russell Ascoli, Chair Heraldry is well-defined and, almost by definition, a narrow subject; a “feudal language” with codified rules, attributes, and a history that in its broad strokes has been told many times. Originating in medieval Europe around the invention of full-body armor, the culture of jousting and tournaments, notions of heredity, strong corporate institutions, and the practice of genealogy, it was common throughout the so-called ancien régime. Its fortunes are widely thought to have declined in the Italian Renaissance because of its incompatibility with some of the very features that have characterized the Renaissance as a distinctive cultural configuration and revolution, including the rise of the humanism, the emergence of the individual, the emancipation of the artist, and the return to classical antiquity. Renaissance Heraldry calls these theses into question with evidence of the vitality of heraldic forms in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries in Italy; and with evidence that the definition and history of heraldry as we know them today are constructions of certain strands of Renaissance culture. This was tied to the humanists’ construction of the very concept of the Middle Ages.
