AGRADECIMENTOS Foi bastante árduo, porém gratificante, o caminho que me trouxe até estas páginas. Observar o número de amigos e amigas que estiveram sempre mandando, apesar dos relativos distanciamentos, boas energias, recados e apoio não é algo superficial, e amplamente me agrada fazer um panorama e listá-los aqui. Com estas páginas, poder me tornar doutora após onze anos de Ufes é uma honra e uma grande responsabilidade que eu preciso e quero dividir com os meus amigos. Muito me frustra a possibilidade de esquecer de alguém nestas linhas, pois a tese e o empenho em terminá-la, com o tempo nem sempre ajudando, me fazem correr o grave risco de simplesmente não nomear todo mundo que foi importante na minha trajetória. Não pense que fui má: se você deu o seu apoio de alguma forma, espero do fundo do coração que se sinta agradecido. Nos momentos mais difíceis, pessoas que nem sempre foram tão próximas a mim apareceram e me auxiliaram de um modo substancial. Então, se está procurando o seu nome aqui, receba meu agradecimento: Valeu, de verdade, pessoal. Importante para mim iniciar agradecendo primeiramente à Capes por fornecer a bolsa que viabilizou a minha estada na Pós-graduação, desde o mestrado. Que esse mecenato seja ampliado para cada vez mais pessoas, que a sociedade perceba a importância de continuar na luta pelo investimento na educação e na qualificação dos profissionais dessa área. A luta, que se desdobra na importância de que os gastos da União sejam democratizados, deve ser contínua. Leni Ribeiro Leite (Ufes), minha orientadora, merece um lugar de destaque nos agradecimentos, por ter tido a maior paciência comigo durante todo esse processo e também por confiar inteiramente em mim. Obrigada por me ensinar que as relações acadêmicas podem ter uma tonalidade aprazível, bem como por representar para mim um dos maiores exemplos de intelectual, de professora e de ser humano. Que a nossa parceria, estabelecida não no doutorado, mas desde quando iniciei as minhas primeiras aulas de latim, perdure e seja mais perene que o bronze. Agradeço igualmente a Gilvan Ventura da Silva (Ufes), não só por suas indispensáveis críticas e sugestões na etapa da Qualificação da Tese, mas por ter me orientado na graduação e no mestrado, ajudando a me construir como professora e pesquisadora. Seus ensinamentos me foram e sempre serão essenciais. Também agradeço imensamente à Charlene Miotti (UFJF), pesquisadora que eu admiro pela postura e excelência, por suas análises e dicas na Qualificação e também pelo aconselhamento e pela leitura crítica do meu trabalho em várias oportunidades nos encontros do Proaera. Da mesma forma, agradeço a Paulo Martins (Usp) pela honra de compor a minha banca, também ele outro pesquisador de grande distinção e que também sempre oportunizou grandes discussões que, sem dúvidas, enriqueceram a minha percepção sobre o mundo antigo. Agradeço também a Belchior Lima Neto (Ufes), por aceitar fazer parte da minha banca e por ter sido sempre uma inspiração, por sua trajetória como um admirável pesquisador e professor. Toda a minha gratidão a Stephen Harrison (Corpus Christi College, Oxford University), pela disponibilidade em participar da minha banca e por ter me recebido tão bem em Oxford no período do meu estágio-sanduíche. Obrigada pelos encontros, pelo debate e por me proporcionar a realização de um sonho, que era o de poder estar em tão renomado lugar dialogando com tanta gente importante da área. Sem dúvidas uma experiência que vou levar para a vida toda. Agradeço também os membros do Proaera, grupo que esteve sempre presente no processo de composição da tese e que me deu suporte e me fez perceber que o ambiente acadêmico pode ser sério e ao mesmo tempo leve, que podemos contribuir com os trabalhos mais diversos, crescendo juntos, sem vaidades. Um agradecimento especial aos sempre gentis professores Anderson Zalewski (UFRGS), Juliana Bastos Marques (UniRio) Fabio Fortes (UFJF), que nos diversos encontros sempre me deram assistências das mais diversas, nos papos informais ou nos círculos de debate. Meu muito obrigada a todos os funcionários do PPGHis, sempre muito solícitos e prestativos durante todos esses anos. Obrigada também aos professores da Ufes, que me auxiliaram de uma forma ou de outra desde 2007, me motivando a ser uma melhor aluna e profissional todos os dias. Gostaria de fazer uma menção especial aos mestres que por suas posturas como professores me inspiraram, animaram e conduziram até aqui: Josemar Lírio, Fábio Muruci (Ufes), Sergio Feldman (Ufes), Maria Amélia Dalvi (Ufes), Rogério Rosa (Udesc) e Raimundo Carvalho (Ufes). Agradeço profundamente a Caroline Gomes e Natan Baptista, em cujas linhas não me é possível expressar o quanto vocês são imprescindíveis na minha vida, estando comigo nos momentos mais alegres e nos mais tristes. Obrigada a Carol por me mostrar a forma mais pura de empatia com as pessoas ao nosso redor, e de como ser uma mulher intensa, destemida e sem fantasia. Obrigada, Natan, por ser a pessoa mais disposta que eu conheço, por me inspirar com a sua determinação e talento. Também nesse combo integro Karla Constâncio, parceria elementar nesses momentos finais, compartilhando comigo muitas madrugadas de estudo, debate e cupuaçu. Vocês representaram para mim nesse momento algo maior que o significado básico no que é amigo e família. Aos membros do Proaera-ES, pelo apoio acadêmico e emocional, por serem os melhores companheiros de pesquisa que uma pessoa pode ter. Faço menção especial aos que se tornaram meus amigos no decorrer dos anos de pesquisa: Kátia Giesen, Luiza Carvalho, Marihá Castro (Ifes), Iana Cordeiro e Alessandro Carvalho. Obrigada pelas loucuras e momentos sublimes, por me fazerem sentir sempre em casa no nosso laboratório e fora dele. Agradeço também a Ana Gabrecht e Thiago Zardini (Saberes), por me inspirarem sempre e serem sempre companheiros com quem eu sei que posso contar. Obrigada pelas parcerias e por sempre confiarem no meu trabalho, desde sempre. Obrigada a todos os funcionários do NOOC (North Oxford Overseas Centre), que tornaram a minha estada em Oxford extremamente divertida. Aos amigos que fiz em Oxford e que levo para toda a vida: obrigada Adir Fonseca Junior e Alex Mazzanti Junior, por todos os momentos divertidos e por terem sido tão acolhedores, por terem sido meu alicerce quando achava que nada daria certo. Também agradeço a Barbara Distefano, Daniel Fernández, Ália Rosa, Francisco Cidoncha, por terem compartilhado

  • Introduction: Missing Years
    Cambridge University Press 0521855829 - Caesar’s Legacy: Civil War and the Emergence of the Roman Empire Josiah Osgood Excerpt More information Introduction: missing years As a youth, the future emperor Claudius set out to write the recent history of Rome and, with initial encouragement from Livy, then the greatest living historian, produced an account that began with the assassination of Julius Caesar. Some were less supportive. Claudius’ mother, Antonia, and grandmother, Livia, repeatedly criticized his efforts; he could not write as frankly as he wished. Thus warned, Claudius left in his final version the assassination and its immediate aftermath, but omitted everything that 1 happened in the civil wars that followed: an eloquent silence. This book is in one sense an effort to recover what Claudius left out and why. Its reader will have to face up to the killing squads, the land confiscations, the famine, the propaganda, the agonizing dilemmas of these years. But I have not set out to write the kind of political narrative Claudius would have produced. For if the emperor has been one inspiration, another has been Vergil, whose first and ninth Eclogues exemplify how civil war swept through the lives of ordinary Italians during Claudius’ missing years. My work too aims to retrieve the men and women who fought and endured the bloody struggles that beset the Roman world under the triumvirate of Mark Antony, Octavian, and Lepidus. It is all too easy in writing about these years to focus only on high politics and constitutional questions, and the results become depressingly top-heavy.

  • 11Ffi ELOGIA of the AUGUSTAN FORUM
    THEELOGIA OF THE AUGUSTAN FORUM 11ffi ELOGIA OF THE AUGUSTAN FORUM By BRAD JOHNSON, BA A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University © Copyright by Brad Johnson, August 2001 MASTER OF ARTS (2001) McMaster University (Classics) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: The Elogia of the Augustan Forum AUTHOR: Brad Johnson, B.A. (McMaster University), B.A. Honours (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Claude Eilers NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 122 II ABSTRACT The Augustan Forum contained the statues offamous leaders from Rome's past. Beneath each statue an inscription was appended. Many of these inscriptions, known also as elogia, have survived. They record the name, magistracies held, and a brief account of the achievements of the individual. The reasons why these inscriptions were included in the Forum is the focus of this thesis. This thesis argues, through a detailed analysis of the elogia, that Augustus employed the inscriptions to propagate an image of himself as the most distinguished, and successful, leader in the history of Rome. III ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. Claude Eilers, for not only suggesting this topic, but also for his patience, constructive criticism, sense of humour, and infinite knowledge of all things Roman. Many thanks to the members of my committee, Dr. Evan Haley and Dr. Peter Kingston, who made time in their busy schedules to be part of this process. To my parents, lowe a debt that is beyond payment. Their support, love, and encouragement throughout the years is beyond description.

    FORM, INTENT, AND THE FRAGMENTARY ROMAN HISTORIANS 240 to 63 B.C.E. By GERTRUDE HARRINGTON BECKER A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2008 1 2008 Gertrude Harrington Becker 2 To Andy 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many have helped me on my journey through the long Ph.D. process. Writing is often a lonely and isolating task but I was lucky never to feel alone. For that I owe thanks to a multitude of friends who cheered me, colleagues who read my work, my department (and Dean) at Virginia Tech which allowed me time off to write, and parents who supported my every step. I also thank the many women who showed me it was possible to complete schooling and a Ph.D. later in life, in particular my mother, Trudy Harrington, and my mother-in-law, Judith Becker. Above all, I thank my family: my children, Matt, Tim, and Trudy for their regular brilliance; and my husband, Andy, who is my center, cornerstone, and rock, this year, the past 21 years, and more to come. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ...............................................................................................................4 ABSTRACT .....................................................................................................................................7 1 EARLY ROMAN HISTORIOGRAPHY: PAST AND PRESENT .........................................9 2 FOUNDERS AND FOLLOWERS: EARLY ROMAN ANNALISTS IN GREEK ..............37 Annales

  • P. Fay. 19, Hadrian's Memoirs
    P. FAY. 19, HADRIAN’S MEMOIRS, AND IMPERIAL EPISTOLARY AUTOBIOGRAPHY* During one of their expeditions in the Fayoum at the turn of this century the Oxford scholars Grenfell, Hunt and Hogarth discovered a few hun- dred papyri — most of them in bad condition — at Ûmm el cAtl, a small village in the northeast corner of the former Arsinoite nome. At first they thought little of their papyrological finds there, but in time the results proved to be very productive after all, both as to content and method- ologically1. One papyrus is of particular interest to us: the verso of a taxing-list contains, in a hand of the end of the second century A.D. at the latest, a text purporting to be a letter of the emperor Hadrian to a ‘Dear Antoni- nus’, who can hardly have been anyone else than Hadrian’s successor Antoninus Pius. The papyrus fragment — which is now in the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago — measures 22 by 10.3 cm. It is damaged on the left and right sides, so that the beginnings as well as the ends of lines are lost; the size of the lacunae at the beginning can be determined with a fair degree of certainty, whereas the amount of text lost at the end is much harder to estimate. The text consists of twenty lines in all — actu- ally fifteen lines, the first five being repeated at the bottom — and is written in two different hands: the first fifteen lines in a clear cursive, the final five in a large irregular uncial.

  • To Augustan Rome
    EMPIRE OF THE IMAGINATION : THE POWER OF PUBLIC FICTIONS IN OVID ’S ‘R EADER RESPONSE ’ TO AUGUSTAN ROME by Nandini B. Pandey A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Classics in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Kathleen McCarthy, Chair Professor Erich S. Gruen Professor Ellen Oliensis Professor Albert Ascoli Spring 2011 © Nandini B. Pandey May 2011 ABSTRACT Empire of the Imagination: The Power of Public Fictions in Ovid’s ‘Reader Response’ to Augustan Rome by Nandini B. Pandey Doctor of Philosophy in Classics University of California, Berkeley Professor Kathleen McCarthy, Chair The idea of an ‘Augustan discourse’ represents a valuable step forward from the twentieth-century belief that Augustus ruled through patronage and propaganda, insofar as it better accommodates the polyvocality of the literature of his age as well as the delicacy of the princeps ’ political position between republic and empire. I seek to expand on this approach by drawing literary works into more thoroughgoing dialogue with contemporary ‘texts’ in other media, including coins and architecture, and by treating all these as examples of reader responses to Augustus that both construct and reflect public interpretations of the emperor. This work focuses in particular on Ovid’s readings of the visual iconography of the principate, arguing that these influenced both ancient and modern historians’ conception of Augustus as the master architect of his own public image. My project is inspired by poets’ creation of a sense of professional rivalry between themselves and the princeps , particularly Ovid’s portrayal of Augustus as a fellow manipulator of fictions.
