© 2015 Andriy Fomin ALL RIGHTS RESERVED © 2015 Andriy Fomin ALL RIGHTS RESERVED HOW DIO WROTE HISTORY: DIO CASSIUS’ INTELLECTUAL, HISTORICAL, AND LITERARY TECHNIQUES by ANDRIY FOMIN A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Classics Written under the direction of Sarolta Anna Takács And approved by New Brunswick, New Jersey January 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION How Dio Wrote History: Dio Cassius’ Intellectual, Historical, and Literary Techniques by ANDRIY FOMIN Dissertation director: Sarolta Anna Takács This dissertation explores the process of history-writing by Dio Cassius through comparative literary-historiographic analysis. By examining Dio’s Roman History as an integral historiographic endeavor, the dissertation attempts to reconstruct Dio’s overarching methodology. This task is achieved through the analysis of Dio’s own editorial asides and the comparison of Dio with parallel historical accounts, as well as by means of observing consistent features in Dio’s compositional design. The dissertation addresses such aspects of Dio’s methodology as his critical approach to sources, his principles involved in selection, reworking, and presentation of the historical material, his treatment of variant versions, and his use of literary allusions. A more in-depth discussion is devoted both to the role which dreams, portents, and prodigies, as well as wisdom expressions play in the system of causation developed by Dio, and to the historiography of Dio’s speeches. The dissertation revisits the traditional preconceptions regarding Dio’s extensive reliance on Thucydides, and in particular subjects to a systematic critique the hypothesis that Dio shared a Thucydidean pessimistic view of human nature, perceived as a constant. The dissertation analyzes the multi-step procedure of Dio’s causation and his emphasis on ii retrospective logical analysis of the motivations of influential individuals which determine the outcomes of the historical events. A systematic treatment of the typology, function, and patterns of presentation of speeches in Dio is undertaken in the concluding part of the study. This discussion revisits the traditional dichotomy in interpretation of Dio’s speeches (whether they are just rhetorical set-pieces akin to the progymnasmata of the rhetorical schools or they truly represent the author’s own views) and points toward new interpretative directions which take into consideration other types of intellectual discourse of the period, including those formed by the system of formal rhetorical education. The dissertation draws a portrait of the historical work of Dio Cassius as a mirror of the intellectual and cultural preoccupations of his own time. It treats the Roman History of Dio Cassius as belonging simultaneously to many intellectual orbits: in cultural sense, to both the Greek and the Roman worlds; in generic, linguistic, and literary sense — both to the traditions of classical Attic historiography and to new intellectual trends brought forth by the spirit of the Second Sophistic. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The idea for this project was conceived in Ukraine, begun in the USA, and completed over many years in different parts of Europe and in the United States. Many people whom I have met in different academic contexts helped me — directly and indirectly — to shape my ideas about this research devoted to investigating the mind of Cassius Dio. I value highly the input of each of them without exception, be it a simple comment or words of encouragement, but it is impossible to mention all their names here. First and foremost, I feel endlessly indebted to my dissertation director, Professor Sarolta Anna Takács, for her insightful ideas, comments, and advice, which challenged me to take intellectual risks, as well as for her unquenchable and contagious optimism and unending support, which guided me through this intellectual journey. I would like to express my warmest gratitude to Professor Thomas J. Figueira, my first reader, who, assisting me during each stage of writing, taught me always to adhere to high standards of scholarship and helped me to refine sharp edges in both expression and scholarly attitudes. Professor Serena Connolly was equally supportive throughout all these years, providing me with guidance as both my reader and graduate director. I am honored to have Professor Ian Rutherford as my outside reader, and I would like to thank him for the valuable comments that he has offered. Needless to say, without the help of all my advisors this project could have hardly been brought to completion, but I am solely responsible for any of the flaws or shortcomings this dissertation may still contain. iv This research has been subsidized by Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey (Transliteratures Fellowship, 2006-2012), the American School of Classical Studies at Athens (Martin Ostwald Fellowship, 2010-2011), the American Research Center in Sofia (Pre-Doctoral Fellowship, 2012-2013), University of Konstanz and the state of Baden- Württemberg (Baden-Württemberg Stipendium, Summer 2012 and 2013). Many people in different ways have contributed to the success of this project. I greatly appreciate the continuous support and encouragement provided by Vice-President Joanna Regulska at Rutgers University. I am thankful to Dr. Eric De Sena at the ARCS, where a good one-third of the dissertation was completed. Professor T. Corey Brennan has shared with me many perceptive ideas, which helped me identify the direction for my research. I would like to extend my thanks to Prof. Cynthia Damon for suggesting constructive comments during a session at the 144th Annual Meeting of the American Philological Association in 2013. I cannot omit mentioning my friends, among whom are Mr. Charles A. George, often the first listener and critic of my most daring ideas, Dr. Maxim Polonsky, whose brotherly support is hard to overestimate; also Mr. William G. Wickey, Mr. Kostyantyn Chuyeshov, my unforgettable ASCSA companions, especially Dr. Jeffrey Rop, friends from ARCS year in Bulgaria; my family, friends, and teachers in Ukraine and beyond. And last but not least: I just wish that Professor Valeriya Latysheva, my university ancient history teacher, who back in 1996 first inspired me to think about Dio Cassius as an object for research, could now see the fruit of this endeavor, the seed of which she planted. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract of the Dissertation……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ii Acknowledgments………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. iv Table of Contents……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….... vi List of Illustrations………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… viii Note on Translations…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. ix Introduction……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. 1 Chapter One: Dio’s Methodology and Methods for Studying Dio……………………………………………….. 21 1.1.

  • Calendar of Roman Events
    Introduction Steve Worboys and I began this calendar in 1980 or 1981 when we discovered that the exact dates of many events survive from Roman antiquity, the most famous being the ides of March murder of Caesar. Flipping through a few books on Roman history revealed a handful of dates, and we believed that to fill every day of the year would certainly be impossible. From 1981 until 1989 I kept the calendar, adding dates as I ran across them. In 1989 I typed the list into the computer and we began again to plunder books and journals for dates, this time recording sources. Since then I have worked and reworked the Calendar, revising old entries and adding many, many more. The Roman Calendar The calendar was reformed twice, once by Caesar in 46 BC and later by Augustus in 8 BC. Each of these reforms is described in A. K. Michels’ book The Calendar of the Roman Republic. In an ordinary pre-Julian year, the number of days in each month was as follows: 29 January 31 May 29 September 28 February 29 June 31 October 31 March 31 Quintilis (July) 29 November 29 April 29 Sextilis (August) 29 December. The Romans did not number the days of the months consecutively. They reckoned backwards from three fixed points: The kalends, the nones, and the ides. The kalends is the first day of the month. For months with 31 days the nones fall on the 7th and the ides the 15th. For other months the nones fall on the 5th and the ides on the 13th.

AUTHOR OF MODERN AND ANTJENT GEOGRAPHY FOR THE USE OF SCHOOLS. STEREOTYPED BY J. HOWE. PHILADELPHIA: BLANQHARD AND LEA. 1851. G- PREFATORY NOTE INDEX OF DR. BUTLER'S ANTIENT ATLAS. It is to be observed in this Index, which is made for the sake of complete and easy refer- ence to the Maps, that the Latitude and Longitude of Rivers, and names of Countries, are given from the points where their names happen to be written in the Map, and not from any- remarkable point, such as their source or embouchure. The same River, Mountain, or City &c, occurs in different Maps, but is only mentioned once in the Index, except very large Rivers, the names of which are sometimes repeated in the Maps of the different countries to which they belong. The quantity of the places mentioned has been ascertained, as far as was in the Author's power, with great labor, by reference to the actual authorities, either Greek prose writers, (who often, by the help of a long vowel, a diphthong, or even an accent, afford a clue to this,) or to the Greek and Latin poets, without at all trusting to the attempts at marking the quantity in more recent works, experience having shown that they are extremely erroneous.

  • The Role of Internal Politics in American Diplomacy
    Horace’s Mythological Lexicon: Repeated Myths and Meaning in Odes 1-3 Blanche Conger McCune Augusta, Georgia B.A., Wheaton College, 2007 M.A., University of Virginia, 2009 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Classics University of Virginia May, 2014 i ©Copyright by Blanche Conger McCune All rights reserved May 2014 ii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines repeated mythological references in the first three books of Horace’s Odes. Several mythological figures occur more than once in the Odes; those studied in this dissertation are Daedalus and Icarus, Prometheus, Tantalus, Hercules, and Castor and Pollux. I argue that in Odes 1-3 recurrent myths constitute part of a personal lexicon, a mythological vocabulary Horace uses to speak about themes such as hubris, poetry, and immortality; for example, Daedalus and Icarus, Prometheus, and Tantalus are consistently linked with immoderation, and Hercules and the Dioscuri are consistently emblematic of complementary aspects of Augustus’ rule and of his future deification. This mythological lexicon can be read across poems so that the interpretation of a mythological figure in one poem can aid in understanding the use of the same mythological figure in another poem, and the collective effect of all of the uses of that figure is itself something that can be analyzed and interpreted. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The first word of thanks goes to my advisor, Jenny Strauss Clay, whose Odes seminar in the spring of 2010 first taught me how to love this seemingly impenetrable poet. She has consistently supported and guided me, since I first embarked on this project, even during one year when neither of us was in residence in Charlottesville.

  • The Cambridge History of Greek and Roman Warfare
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-78273-9 - The Cambridge History of Greek and Roman Warfare, Volume 1: Greece, the Hellenistic World and the Rise of Rome Edited by Philip Sabin, Hans van Wees and Michael Whitby Frontmatter More information THE CAMBRIDGE HISTORY OF GREEK AND ROMAN WARFARE Warfare was the single biggest preoccupation of historians in antiquity. In recent decades fresh textual interpretations, numerous new archaeological discoveries and a much broader analytical focus emphasizing social, economic, political and cul- tural approaches have transformed our understanding of ancient warfare. Volume i of this two-volume History reflects these developments and provides a systematic account, written by a distinguished cast of contributors, of the various themes underlying the warfare of the Greek world from the archaic to the Hellenistic period and of early and middle Republican Rome. For each broad period devel- opments in troop-types, equipment, strategy and tactics are discussed. These are placed in the broader context of developments in international relations and the relationship of warfare to both the state and wider society. Numerous illustrations, a glossary and chronology, and information about the ancient authors mentioned supplement the text. This will become the primary reference work for specialists and non-specialists alike. philip sabin is Professor of Strategic Studies in the Department of War Studies at King’s College London. His main academic interest concerns the analytical modelling of conflict, and he is the author of Lost Battles: Reconstructing the Great Clashes of the Ancient World (2007) and coeditor (with Tim Cornell and Boris Rankov) of The Second Punic War: A Reappraisal (1996).

Hellenistik Çağ, dengelerin sürekli olarak değiştiği ve kargaşanın yoğun olarak yaşandığı bir dönemdir. Bu kargaşa ortamının yarattığı fırsat, isyan hareketlerine zemin hazırlamıştır. Bu bağlamda çalışmamız, Hellenistik Dönem’in başlangıcından sonuna kadar geçen zaman dilimi içerisinde Anadolu’da ortaya çıkan isyanları, ayaklanmaları ve direnişleri sebep ve sonuçlarıyla incelemeyi hedef edinmiştir. Anadolu’daki otorite boşluğu, çeşitli taleplerle meydana gelen isyan hareketlerine yol açmıştır. Ele alınan gelişmeler, kitlesel olarak ortaya çıkan isyan hareketleridir. Bu dönemde meydana gelen isyan hareketleri siyasi, sosyal ve ekonomik yönden ortaya çıkan taleplere bağlı olarak gelişmiştir. Hellenistik Çağ’da iktidara karşı girişilen isyan hareketleri görülmektedir. Bunun yanı sıra kargaşanın yaygın olarak sürdüğü bu dönemde orduda çıkan ayaklanmalara da şahit oluyoruz. Hellenistik Çağ’da meydana gelen savaşlar ve mücadeleler, kentleri olumsuz yönde etkileyen gelişmeleri de beraberinde getirmiştir.

Hellenistik Çağ, dengelerin sürekli olarak değiştiği ve kargaşanın yoğun olarak yaşandığı bir dönemdir. Bu kargaşa ortamının yarattığı fırsat, isyan hareketlerine zemin hazırlamıştır. Bu bağlamda çalışmamız, Hellenistik Dönem’in başlangıcından sonuna kadar geçen zaman dilimi içerisinde Anadolu’da ortaya çıkan isyanları, ayaklanmaları ve direnişleri sebep ve sonuçlarıyla incelemeyi hedef edinmiştir. Anadolu’daki otorite boşluğu, çeşitli taleplerle meydana gelen isyan hareketlerine yol açmıştır. Ele alınan gelişmeler, kitlesel olarak ortaya çıkan isyan hareketleridir. Bu dönemde meydana gelen isyan hareketleri siyasi, sosyal ve ekonomik yönden ortaya çıkan taleplere bağlı olarak gelişmiştir. Hellenistik Çağ’da iktidara karşı girişilen isyan hareketleri görülmektedir. Bunun yanı sıra kargaşanın yaygın olarak sürdüğü bu dönemde orduda çıkan ayaklanmalara da şahit oluyoruz. Hellenistik Çağ’da meydana gelen savaşlar ve mücadeleler, kentleri olumsuz yönde etkileyen gelişmeleri de beraberinde getirmiştir. Kentler, başka bir askeri gücün saldırısına karşın direniş haklarını kullanarak kendilerini savunmuşlardır.
