The Whole Works of Roger Ascham THE WHOLE WORKS OF EOGER ASCHAM, NOW FIRST COLLECTED AND REVISED, WITH A LIFE OF THE AUTHOR; BY THE REV. DR. GILES, FORMERLY FELLOW OF C. C. C. , OXFORD. VOL. III. LONDON: JOHN RUSSELL SMITH, SOHO SQUARE. 3864. PRINTED BY BOWDEN AND BRAWN, 13, PRINCES STREET, LITTLE QUEEN STREET, HOLBORN, LONDON. PKEFACE TO VOL. III. OF the first work contained in this volume, "A Report and Discourse of the Affairs and State of Germany, <kc" I have seen but one edition afac-simile separate ; of its title is prefixed to our reprint of the work. It is in small quarto, and has no date; but it is known to have been printed in 1552, and again in 1570. The copy which I have seen, is in the British Museum, and has furnished, besides many smaller cor rections, more than one whole sentence that had been omitted in the last edition of the English Works, 8vo, 1815. 2. The School-master also is here printed from the " English Works of Roger Ascham," collated through out with the earlier editions, which have furnished several important corrections of the text. This work was first published by Mrs Ascham, small 8vo, 1570, after her husband's death : a fac-simile of IV PREFACE. the title to that edition is prefixed to the work in the present reprint. The School-master was again printed in 1571, 1573, 1579, 1583, 1589, these editions vary very little the one from the other. It was again published, with notes by the Rev. James Upton, London, 8vo, 1711, and reprinted 1743. The work is also found in the English Works of Roger Ascham, and has lastly been carefully edited "by John E. B. Mayor, M.A., Fellow of Saint John's College, Cambridge; London, Bell and Daldy, 186 Fleet Street, 1863, fcap 8vo." The notes in this edi tion are most elaborate, and must cause every reader to regret that the able and learned editor did not extend his plan by giving us a complete edition of his favourite Ascham's works. The notes found in the last London edition of the works have been all retained, with some few corrections and additional references. 3. The Poemata, which first appeared in one of the early editions of the Epistolce, edited by Grant, were afterwards omitted by Elstob and others, but are here restored. They add nothing to Ascham's classical reputation nor, on the other hand, do they detract from it; for, notwithstanding the great stir made in those times about classical learning, there had been a PREFACE. V great falling off, owing to the revival of the native English tongue under the Lancastrian and Tudor kings. Those poems might be retained, if only to show that poetical licences, if not false quantities, formed a great part of the stock-in-trade of those who then cultivated the Latin muse. But there may be another reason, still for their whilst the more sad, preservation ; for, names of Ravaillac, Fenton, and other murderers, have been immortalized by the fame, not of themselves but of their victims, it is also clear that the making of these unlucky hexameters caused the untimely death of Roger Ascham. 4. The Oration 011 the life and death of Ascham, is as perfect a specimen of the bombastic style used in such compositions as we can easily meet with. It is, however, a great guide to the facts and dates of Ascham's life, and though lengthy and repulsive in its Latinity, could not with propriety be left out. It was first published by Grant as an introduction to his first edition of the Letters. 5. Seven Letters by Giles Ascham, son of the Royal Tutor, are now first published from the Lans- downe Collection in the British Museum. They are written in the same querulous style which the father always used, when soliciting money from the Queen and others who were his patrons. VI PREFACE. 6. The volume ends with a Glossary of words which either are now out of use, or have been modified in their pronunciation or otherwise. The idea is taken from Mr Mayor, who, in his valuable notes to the Scholemaster, has pointed out the good that might be got if such a plan were generally followed by those who bring out new editions of our old writers.

JOHN ASTLEY TO R. ASCHAM. NOW find true by experience, which I have oft heard of others, and sometimes read myself, that men make no such account of commodities when they have them, as when they want them. I mean this by our friendly fellowship together at Cheston Chelsey, and here at Hatfield, her Grace's house; our pleasant stu dies in reading together Aristotle's Rhetoric, Cicero, and our free with honest Livy; talk, mingled always mirth ; our trim conferences of that present world, and too true judgments of the troublesome time that followed. These I commodities now remember with some grief, which we then used with much pleasure, besides many other fruits of friendship that faithful good-will could afford. And these thinkings cause me oft to wish, either you to be here with us, or me to be there with you : but what wishing is nothing else but a vain wail ing for that which will wanteth, I will cease from and seek the true for this sore wishing, remedy ; and that is, whilst we meet again in deed, in the mean while to ease our desires with oft writing the one to the other. I would, indeed, I had been partaker, in your company, of that absence out of your pleasant your country ; and REPORT OF GERMANY. because I was not, I pray you let me be partaker, by your letters, of some fruit of that your journey. hear of stirs in those and the We great parts ; how emperor, a prince of great wisdom and great power, hath been driven to extreme shifts and that the ; by policy of mean men, who were thought to be his friends, and not by the puissantness of others who were known to be his open enemies. I know you were wont in marking diligently and noting truly all such great affairs : and you know likewise, how desirous I am always to read any thing that you write. Write therefore, I pray you, that we your friends, being at home, may enjoy by your letters a pleasant memory of you in that time whilst you be absent abroad. Fare well in Christ. From Hattield, xix.

That part of your letter from Hatneld, decimo nono Octob. renewing a most pleasant memory of our friendly fellowship together, and full of your wonted good-will towards me, I an swered immediately from Spires, by Fraunces the post : which letter, if it be not yet come to your hand, ye might have heard tell of it in Mr. Secretary Cecil's chamber in the court. As concerning the other part of your letter for your wish to have been with me in this mine absence from and for to be made my country ; your request, partaker of stir of these times here in by my letters the Germany ; surely I would you had your wish : for then should not I now need to bungle up yours so great a request, REPORT OF GERMANY.

  • Profile of a Plant: the Olive in Early Medieval Italy, 400-900 CE By
    Profile of a Plant: The Olive in Early Medieval Italy, 400-900 CE by Benjamin Jon Graham A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2014 Doctoral Committee: Professor Paolo Squatriti, Chair Associate Professor Diane Owen Hughes Professor Richard P. Tucker Professor Raymond H. Van Dam © Benjamin J. Graham, 2014 Acknowledgements Planting an olive tree is an act of faith. A cultivator must patiently protect, water, and till the soil around the plant for fifteen years before it begins to bear fruit. Though this dissertation is not nearly as useful or palatable as the olive’s pressed fruits, its slow growth to completion resembles the tree in as much as it was the patient and diligent kindness of my friends, mentors, and family that enabled me to finish the project. Mercifully it took fewer than fifteen years. My deepest thanks go to Paolo Squatriti, who provoked and inspired me to write an unconventional dissertation. I am unable to articulate the ways he has influenced my scholarship, teaching, and life. Ray Van Dam’s clarity of thought helped to shape and rein in my run-away ideas. Diane Hughes unfailingly saw the big picture—how the story of the olive connected to different strands of history. These three people in particular made graduate school a humane and deeply edifying experience. Joining them for the dissertation defense was Richard Tucker, whose capacious understanding of the history of the environment improved this work immensely. In addition to these, I would like to thank David Akin, Hussein Fancy, Tom Green, Alison Cornish, Kathleen King, Lorna Alstetter, Diana Denney, Terre Fisher, Liz Kamali, Jon Farr, Yanay Israeli, and Noah Blan, all at the University of Michigan, for their benevolence.

INDEX OF PERSONS page 300 INDEX OF ARTISTS page 306 PREFACE HE first and only catalogue of the collection of medals formed by Gustave Dreyfus appeared in I93 I. Its author was Sir George Hill, who had studied the collection in depth when it was still T in Dreyfus' hands in the Boulevard Malesherbes in Paris. In a prefatory note, Hill observed that 'keenly as Gustave Dreyfus appreciated all his beautiful things, he had a particularly soft place in his heart for the Italian medals, and ... he would have agreed with the German critic who declared that the medallic art was par excellence the art of the Renaissance, the expression of the quintessence of the spirit of that age.' The preface continues with the tribute: 'His was perhaps the finest collection that has ever been in the hands of a private collector - the "perhaps" might be omitted, but that it is difficult to range the great collections in a true perspective.' Thanks to the Kress Foundation, the Dreyfus collection of medals was not dispersed, like so many other medallic collections, but is preserved intact in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, where it bears out Hill's claim to be regarded as the finest private collection of medals ever to have been formed.

  • 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.

A freeborn citizen son of a freedman of Antoninus Pius and an Ulpia could not have been born before 138. If it can be assumed that he lived for 36 years, reaching the rank of centurion in the army and a post in charge of pack animals, this inscription must date from the last years of M.

His mother Ulpia Marcellina, with a nomen from two reigns earlier than that of her husband and a cognomen that is rarely servile, was most probably freeborn, whether or not the latter had been manumitted at the time of their marriage. 1402 T.

  • Freedom from Passions in Augustine
    UNIVERSITY OF HELSINKI FACULTY OF THEOLOGY FINLAND FREEDOM FROM PASSIONS IN AUGUSTINE Gao Yuan 高 源 ACADEMIC DISSERTATION To be publicly discussed, by due permission of the Faculty of Theology at the University of Helsinki in Lecture Hall 13, University Main Building, on 4 November 2015, at 12 noon Helsinki 2015 ISBN 978-951-51-1625-3 (paperback) ISBN 978-951-51-1626-0 (PDF) Copyright © Gao Yuan (高源) https://ethesis.helsinki.fi/en Cover: Wang Rui and Gao Yuan Juvenes Print Oy Helsinki 2015 ABSTRACT This study presents a general overview of Augustine’s insights into passions as well as his approach to the therapy of emotions and their sanctification. Attending to various phases of his writings, this work explores the systematic structure of Augustine’s tenets on passions and on the freedom from passions in the context of his philosophical and theological convictions on the issue of amor sui and amor Dei. The analysis begins by examining Augustine’s language of passions and the doctrinal connections between Augustine and his predecessors. I provide a survey of Augustine’s usage of emotional terms and criticise the position that Augustine suggested a dichotomy between passio and affectus as well as the claim that none of Augustine’s Latin terms can be justifiably translated by the modern term “emotion”. On the basis of terminological and doctrinal observations, I clarify the general features of Augustine’s psychology of passions in Chapter 2. In addressing the issue of how Augustine transformed his predecessors’ therapy of passions and their ideal of freedom from emotion into his theological framework in Chapter 3, I examine a series of related concepts, such as propatheia, metriopatheia, apatheia and eupatheia, to determine how he understood them in various stages of his philosophical and theological thinking.

They are intended to provide the student with con­ venient materials for the proper understanding of the relations that progressively subsisted between it and the Roman Empire. If this volume is found satisfactory, and meets with success, it will be followed by a reconstruction of the anti-christian polemic of Celsus, to be succeeded by other volumes on the Early Apologists, the first authentic martyrdoms, and a General Sketch of the attitude of the Roman Administration towards the Christian religion, and in particular a separate treat­ ment of the reign of Marcus Aurelius in this respect.
