Newman The Editor welcomes contributions, which should not normally exceed twenty double-spaced typed pages, on any topic relevant to the elucida- tion of classical antiquity, its transmission or influence. Consistent with the maintenance of scholarly rigor, contributions are especially appropriate which deal with major questions of interpretation, or which are likely to interest a wider academic audience. Care should be taken in presentation to avoid technical jargon, and the trans-rational use of acronyms. Homines cum hominibus loquimur. Contributions should be addressed to: The Editor, Illinois Classical Studies, Department of the Classics, 4072 Foreign Languages Building, 707 South Mathews Avenue, Urbana, Illinois 61801 JOHN LEWIS HELLER Professor Emeritus of the Classics, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Preface The current issue of Illinois Classical Studies is dedicated to Dr. John Lewis Heller, Professor Emeritus of the Classics at the University of Illinois and, from 1949-1966, Head of Department. A portrait will be found at the front of this volume, and a vita and list of publications at the end. John Heller's patience and self-effacing kindliness are known to us all. Called from Minnesota in 1949, following the shock of W. A. Oldfather's untimely death, he guided the Department during one of its most brilliant periods. His role as maieutikos and mentor in this renais- sance of our studies both on and off campus was fittingly recognized at the national level in 1966 by his election as President of the American Philological Association. Since his retirement, he has characteristically been busier than ever, and at long last has found time for the publication of his eagerly expected major works on Linnaeus, a fine example in our age of cross- disciplinary research! His gracious wife Suzanne has supported him over the years in bearing all the burdens of his calling and offices. The Department here and scholars from across the country and world join in saluting their honored colleague. Ad multos annos! With this issue, the editorship of Illinois Classical Studies passes from its founder. Professor Miroslav Marcovich. The new editor takes this opportunity of expressing the inadequate thanks of the Department of the Classics for Professor Marcovich's heroic labors in our day in the service of classical scholarship. No one who has not wrestled with problems of finance, format, presentation, balanced contributions, edit- ing, can fully appreciate the delicacy, subtlety, calm as well as firmness and bold resolution which Professor Marcovich has brought to his task. The seven numbers over which he has presided and the continuing lively growth of our journal will be his testimonial. Si monumentum requiris, circumspice. viii Preface The incoming Responsible Editor would like to acknowledge the help of his Advisory Committee, Professors Bright, Browne, Jacobson and Gotoff. The reader will notice that a change has been made to a different format, thanks to the use of the UNIX* computerized typeset- ting system. Our typist has shown energy and determination in coping with a new keyboard. Frances Stickney Newman has devoted countless hours to the complex problems of formatting and presentation of demanding texts. Without her assistance this whole project would have been unthinkable. Timely advice was always forthcoming from Mr. Edmund DeWan of the Computing Services Office, University of Illi- nois; special thanks are also offered to Debbie Hudson and Darlene Hawkins for keeping the project moving. Professor Brian Dutton of the Department of Spanish, Italian and Portuguese offered help at crucial moments. Dr. William Plater, Associate Director of the School of Humani- ties, inspired our metamorphosis and deserves particularly warm thanks for his generous support and advocacy of the new technology. His aid has been indispensable. These changes are meant to serve a purpose. It is not for nothing that the professorship of Latin is, in certain Scottish universities, still known as the professorship of Humanity: and certainly the greatest humanist whom the new Editor had the privilege of encountering as a student was also a Latinist, Eduard Fraenkel. Just as Ennius was inter- preted as speaking of himself when he described the friend of Geminus Servilius, so Fraenkel may be thought to have reflected his own deepest ideals when he described Wilamowitz: Nor are there here (nor, for that matter, in anything that Wilamowitz wrote) any departmental barriers. For him there was no such thing as a watertight compartment of textual criticism, another of historical grammar, another of metre, another of history of religion, another of ancient law, and so forth. No single subsection of the technique of research was allowed to get the better of the rest: they had all to be subservient and to co-operate to one purpose only, the adequate in- terpretation of the text in hand. These names are rightly and fittingly placed at the threshold of this new issue. When we forget their universality, we forget what makes our studies humane. Nisi ad regulam, prava non corriges. J.

SIDNEY ALLEN Languages with fixed stress accents display a variety of positional rules. The initial syllable is stressed, for example, in Icelandic, Gaelic, Czech and Hungarian; the second syllable in some Amerindian languages; the final syllable in Armenian and many Turkic languages; the penultimate syllable in Welsh, Polish, and generally in the Bantu languages; the antepenultimate in Macedonian. Some languages show varying degrees of departure from the norm (generally connected with grammatical fac- tors); and, as even the above selection illustrates, the rules may differ within a genetic group, thus implying changes of rule within the history of a given language. In Armenian also internal evidence points to an earlier penultimate stress.' In some other languages the position of the accent, though fixed, is subject to more complex rules, and Latin is a well-known example of this type. Although it is commonly referred to as the 'penultimate' rule, the penultimate syllable is in fact only stressed (in words of more than two syllables^) if it is heavy, that is, if the syllable contains a long vowel or has a closing consonant, as re.la.tus or re.fec.tus: otherwise the stress falls on the antepenultimate, whether heavy or light, as no.mi.na, cbr.po.ra, do. minus (and for this reason this type of accent will be referred to throughout as 'penultimate' in quotation marks). By this rule the final syllable is never stressed, and indeed its non- involvement may be seen as even more completely exclusive. The condition for the accentuation of a light (antepenultimate) syllable in Latin is that it must be followed by a light; the fact that a light 'On Celtic and on Balto-Slavic cf. J. Kurylowitz, Problemes de linguistiqiw iiuio- eiiropeenne (Wroclaw 1977), pp. 219 note 62, 223 ff. ^Disyllables require special consideration, and might best be treated in the context of a theory mentioned in the following note. 2 Illinois Classical Studies, VIII. 1 penultimate is not stressed even if the final is light (e.g. *facile) could therefore be interpreted to mean that the final not only is itself unac- centable but also may not participate in the accentual environment.^ The few exceptions to the non-accentuation of the final syllable result from historical shortenings by contraction, syncope, or apocope of words in which the accent was formerly penultimate: thus e.g.

  • MONEY and the EARLY GREEK MIND: Homer, Philosophy, Tragedy
    This page intentionally left blank MONEY AND THE EARLY GREEK MIND How were the Greeks of the sixth century bc able to invent philosophy and tragedy? In this book Richard Seaford argues that a large part of the answer can be found in another momentous development, the invention and rapid spread of coinage, which produced the first ever thoroughly monetised society. By transforming social relations, monetisation contributed to the ideas of the universe as an impersonal system (presocratic philosophy) and of the individual alienated from his own kin and from the gods (in tragedy). Seaford argues that an important precondition for this monetisation was the Greek practice of animal sacrifice, as represented in Homeric epic, which describes a premonetary world on the point of producing money. This book combines social history, economic anthropology, numismatics and the close reading of literary, inscriptional, and philosophical texts. Questioning the origins and shaping force of Greek philosophy, this is a major book with wide appeal. richard seaford is Professor of Greek Literature at the University of Exeter. He is the author of commentaries on Euripides’ Cyclops (1984) and Bacchae (1996) and of Reciprocity and Ritual: Homer and Tragedy in the Developing City-State (1994).

    Synoikism, Urbanization, and Empire in the Early Hellenistic Period by Ryan Anthony Boehm A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Emily Mackil, Chair Professor Erich Gruen Professor Mark Griffith Spring 2011 Copyright © Ryan Anthony Boehm, 2011 ABSTRACT SYNOIKISM, URBANIZATION, AND EMPIRE IN THE EARLY HELLENISTIC PERIOD by Ryan Anthony Boehm Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology University of California, Berkeley Professor Emily Mackil, Chair This dissertation, entitled “Synoikism, Urbanization, and Empire in the Early Hellenistic Period,” seeks to present a new approach to understanding the dynamic interaction between imperial powers and cities following the Macedonian conquest of Greece and Asia Minor. Rather than constructing a political narrative of the period, I focus on the role of reshaping urban centers and regional landscapes in the creation of empire in Greece and western Asia Minor. This period was marked by the rapid creation of new cities, major settlement and demographic shifts, and the reorganization, consolidation, or destruction of existing settlements and the urbanization of previously under- exploited regions. I analyze the complexities of this phenomenon across four frameworks: shifting settlement patterns, the regional and royal economy, civic religion, and the articulation of a new order in architectural and urban space. The introduction poses the central problem of the interrelationship between urbanization and imperial control and sets out the methodology of my dissertation. After briefly reviewing and critiquing previous approaches to this topic, which have focused mainly on creating catalogues, I point to the gains that can be made by shifting the focus to social and economic structures and asking more specific interpretive questions.

  • The Panel Abstracts
    The Outskirts of Iambos Panel Proposal While the genre of Iambos is most commonly thought of as an archaic Greek phenomenon, iambic poetics seems to rear its ugly head throughout classical antiquity and beyond. In the typical literary-historical accounts, Iambos proper is deployed to describe the work of Archilochus, Hipponax, Semonides and other, more shadowy characters who inhabit the archaic Greek poetic landscape. Those poets who do compose iambic verses in later periods, e.g., Callimachus, Horace, etc., are seen purely as imitators or adapters—their archaic models contribute significantly to the interpretation of their iambic poetry. Of course, in the case of Callimachus and Horace, this derivative status is based on the poets' own words (cf. Call. Ia. 1.1- 4 and Hor. Ep. 1.19.23-25). The question arises, then, why focus attention on the derivative nature of a poem? Is this simply a symptom of the anxiety of influence or does it have a more integral role to play in the iambic mode? Given the liminal character of the archaic Greek iambographers, this panel examines such derivativeness as constitutive aspect of Iambos from the earliest period. In short, the archaic Greek iambographers tendency to showcase, in their poetry, their own faults and failings, their distance from Greek cultural and poetic norms, can be seen as an essential feature of the iambic mode and, as such, is used and transformed in subsequent iambicizing texts. This panel will investigate the implications of this self-consciously distant aspect of iambic poetics by looking for ways in which the iambic mode is marshaled in texts that seemingly lie outside the purview of what is traditionally considered authentic Iambos (i.e., limited to that composed in archaic Greece).

  • Literary Quarrels
    Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics (1) The Cicala's Song: Plato in the Aetia Benjamin Acosta-Hughes University of Michigan, Ann Arbor Version 1.2 © Benjamin Acosta-Hughes, [email protected] (2) Literary Quarrels Susan Stephens Stanford University Version 1.0 © Susan Stephens Abstract: Scholars have long noted Platonic elements or allusions in Callimachus' poems, particularly in the Aetia prologue and the 13th Iambus that center on poetic composition. Following up on their work, Benjamin Acosta-Hughes and Susan Stephens, in a recent panel at the APA, and in papers that are about to appear in Callimachea II. Atti della seconda giornata di studi su Callimaco (Rome: Herder), have argued not for occasional allusions, but for a much more extensive influence from the Phaedo and Phaedrus in the Aetia prologue (Acosta-Hughes) and the Protagoras, Ion, and Phaedrus in the Iambi (Stephens). These papers are part of a preliminary study to reformulate Callimachus' aesthetic theory. 1 The Cicala's Song: Plato in the Aetia* This paper prefigures a larger study of Callimachus and Plato, a study on which my Stanford colleague Susan Stephens and I have now embarked in our co-authored volume on Callimachus.1 Awareness of Platonic allusion in Callimachus is not new, although its significance has not really been appreciateda close reading of the two authors remains a real desideratum, and it is indeed this need that we hope our work will one day fulfill. The main focal points of the present paper are two passages of Callimachus, and two passages of Plato, that, read together, configure a remarkable intertextual dialogue on poetry, reading, and the inspired voice.
