CONCLUSION 70 APPENDIX A 72 APPENDIX B 76 BIBLIOGRAPHY 84 PREFACE The aim of this thesis is to evaluate Petronius' skill in character-portrayal as it is revealed in the Cena Trimalchionis. The introductory section contains a brief discussion concerning the place the Cena Trimalchionis occupies in the Satyricon, the character of Trimalchio's town, the seating arrangement at the banquet, and the portrayal of freedmen by contemporary writers. Next, the main topic is dealt with, Petronius' skill in character­ drawing. The characters in the Cena are individually discussed and appraised. In the first chapter, for the banquet scene W.B. Sedgwick's edition is ueed; for the other sections of the Satyricon,Michael Heseltine's in the Loeb Library. In the other chapters and in the appendices the references are usually to Sedgwick's edition; the few exceptions are indicated in the foot-notes. 1. INTRODUCTION 1. Petronius: The Satyricon and the Cena Trimalchionis Gaius Petronius, a description of whom Tacitus has left in his Annals!1 ) is considered by most scholars to be the author of the Satyricon, the work containing the Cena Trimalchionis. Although most of his life was passed in idleness and luxury, Petronius possessed great ability. This he proved as proconsul of Bithynia and later as con­ sul. An authority on pleasure, he became a close companion of Nero's. His influence with the emperor, however, arous­ ed the jealousy of Tigellinus. Charged with conspiracy against Nero's life and believing destruction inevitable, he committed suicide. Only a small portion of the Satyricon is extant, fragments of books fifteen and sixteen. The work is a satiric romance relating the disreputable but amusing adventures of three unprincipled young men: Encolpius, a student of rhetoric, whom Petronius makes the narrator throughout the work, his friand Ascyltos, and the boy Giton over whom the two friends are constantly quarrelling. In sorne of their escapades an important role is played by Agamemnon, a professor of rhetoric. This individual is (1) Tacitus, Annals, XVI, chs. 18-19. 2. asked to Trimalchio's banquet and Encolpius and Ascyltos, who are his students, are included in the invitation. Over one third of the extant portions of the Satyricon are devoted to the Cena Trimalchionis. In sorne respects this episode may be considered as another adventure of the three rogues for they are actually present at the banquet and participate in the activities there. However, since their ro1es are so sma11 (the principal actors being the host, the hostess, and the other guests), the Cena Trima1chionis is more in the nature of a digression 11ke the story of the Matron of Ephesus(2) and the poem on the Civil War of 49 B.C. (3) 2. Character of Trimalchio's Town Cum ae, Naples, and Puteoli have al1 been suggested as the scene of the Cena Trima1chionis. Of the three cities, Puteo1i seems to have the strongest case. (4 ) How­ ever, no certainty can be reached in this much disputed question; nor is it necessary for the purpose of this thesis. The social atmosphere in a11 three must have been very much the same. It is sufficient for our purpose to (2 ~ 111-112 (3 119-124 (4) The~ takes place in a Roman colony (44.12). Of the three possibilities, only Puteoli seems to have been a colony in Petronius' day. G.

All the signs in his house are written in Latin. He regards Greek as a foreign tongue; when sorne entertainers recite se­ lections from Homer, he reads from a Latin version for the benefit of his guests.(ll) His fluteplayer is taught to play Latin music and his troupe of comedians present Atel­ lan farces.(l2 ) He even considers himself an authority on Latin literature.(l3) The city of the Cena is situated so close to the ( 5 ) 81.

The market i& described as crammed with goods,(l6) and Trimalchio has become wealthy from his trading activities.(l7) Lichas, a marchant of Tarentum, has his ship call at the busy port.(là) With these characteristics, the city makes a very appropriate setting for the Cena Trimalchionis. An im­ portant commercial centre is just where we would expect to find Trimalchio and his friends; for trade and industry in the Roman Empire were mostly in the hands of freedmen auch as these. 3. Dramatis Personae of the Banquet Those present at the banquet are:- 1. Trimalchio, the giver of the feast 2. Fortunata, his wife 3. Habinnas, a mason 4. Scintilla, his wife 5. Diogenes, a wealthy freedman (14) 90. (15) 99. (16) 12. (17) 76.8-9. (18) 101. 5. 6. Proculus, an undertaker 7. Hermeros, a friend of the host's S. Echion, a rag-dealer 9. Dama, a freedman 10. Seleucus, a freedman 11. Phileros, a freedman 12. Ganymede, a freedman 13. Niceros, a freedman 14. Plocamus, a freedman 15. Agamemnon, a professor of rhetoric 16. Encolpius, the narrator 17. Ascyltos, his friend Basides Menelaus, the assistant of Agamemnon,and Giton, the servant of Encolpius, there are at the banquet a number of slaves to do the work and provide entertain- ment: 1. Carpus , the carver 2. Daedalus, the cook 3. Cinnamus, the steward 4. C~oesus, a favorite of Trimalchio's 5. Dionysus, a young boy 6. Stichus, a slave in charge of Trimalchio's burial clothes 7. Philargyrus 8. Cario 6. Although these slaves are minor figures in the banquet scene, they play a significant role, for they are involved in incidents introduced to bring out their master's character. 4. The Seating Arrangement Nine people reclined in a triclinium, a set of three couches placed around three sides of a square table with the fourth side left open to allow the slaves to wait upon the guests. Since at Trimalchio's banquet there had to be places for seventeen people, two triclinia must have been used. A number of elues in the Cena make it possible to deduce with some certainty the position of each person at the triclinium where the most important guests were reclining. The persons in this group were probably seated in the order shown in the following diagram. imus medius summus in in in medio medio medio Habinnas Agamemnon Encolpius Scintilla Be-rmeros imus in sumrnus in imo summo Fortunata medius in imo Proculus Ascyltos medius in summo -...J imus in imo Diogenes Trimalchio summus in • summo Detailed arguments for this seating arrangement are given in Appendix A s. At the other triclinum the less important guests reclined: Dama, Seleucus, Phileros, Ganymede, Echion, Niceros, and Plocamus. There are not enough elues in the Cana to decide the position of each guest at this tri­ clinium. 5. Portrayal of Freedmen by Contemporary Writers Trimalchio was a member of the freedman class, whose rise was such a prominent feature of the early Roman Empire. The usual way by which a former slave improved his lot was to engage in business and this was the method Tri­ malchio chose. Since the Roman nobility was forbidden both by law and by sentiment to participate in trade and com­ merce, there wCALexcellent opportunities in the field for former slaves. The rise of this group to wealth and pro­ minence attracted the fierce resentment of contemporary writers and provided a wonderful mark for satire. In his Germania Tacitus reveals his persona! feel­ ings concerning freedmen. He congratulates the great northern tribes which vigorously check their former slaves.

BENNETT Goldwin Smith Professor of Latin in Cornell University Quicquid praecipies, esto brevis, ut cito dicta Percipiant animi dociles teneantque fideles: Omne supervacuum pleno de pectore manat. —HORACE, Ars Poetica. COPYRIGHT, 1895; 1908; 1918 BY CHARLES E. BENNETT PREFACE. The present work is a revision of that published in 1908. No radical alterations have been introduced, although a number of minor changes will be noted. I have added an Introduction on the origin and development of the Latin language, which it is hoped will prove interesting and instructive to the more ambitious pupil. At the end of the book will be found an Index to the Sources of the Illustrative Examples cited in the Syntax. C.E.B. ITHACA, NEW YORK, May 4, 1918 PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION. The present book is a revision of my Latin Grammar originally published in 1895. Wherever greater accuracy or precision of statement seemed possible, I have endeavored to secure this. The rules for syllable division have been changed and made to conform to the prevailing practice of the Romans themselves. In the Perfect Subjunctive Active, the endings -īs, -īmus, -ītis are now marked long. The theory of vowel length before the suffixes -gnus, -gna, -gnum, and also before j, has been discarded. In the Syntax I have recognized a special category of Ablative of Association, and have abandoned the original doctrine as to the force of tenses in the Prohibitive. Apart from the foregoing, only minor and unessential modifications have been introduced. In its main lines the work remains unchanged.

    Greek Grammar Section B Greek Grammar Second Edition © 2003-2017 www.TimothyMinistries.info Page B - 1 Greek Grammar Language is the light of the mind. John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) Language is not only the vehicle of thought, it is a great and efficient instrument in thinking. H. Davey Some Koine Greek Background The Koine ( = “common”) Greek of the Bible and early Christian writings was preceded by Classi- cal Greek (until 323 BC) and followed by Medieval Greek (after AD 330). Koine arose as the com- mon dialect of the armies of Alexander the Great as they broke through national boundaries, and mixed cultures on their eastward march to Mesopotamia. Koine Greek is based upon Classical Attic Greek, and has elements of other Greek dialects mixed in. The names of the letters in the Greek alphabet are meaningless other than signifying their referent and beginning with the sound that their letter makes. This is because the Greek alphabet was adapted from the Phoenician-Semitic alphabet. “The Greek letters used in the most ancient inscriptions are, as to form, essentially the same as the corresponding characters found in Phoe- nician inscriptions and on Hebrew coins” (E. A. Sophocles, 1854). The earlier Semitic letters were pictograms that meant something. The West Semitic word Aleph, for example, meant ox, and the letter Aleph represented a bovine head with horns. The ancient meanings of these pictograms did not carry over into the corresponding Greek letters. © 2003-2017 www.TimothyMinistries.info Page B - 2 Greek Grammar Contents Some Koine Greek Background .................................................................................... 2 Abbreviations ............................................................................................................... 5 Conjunctions And ἵνα Clauses......................................................................................

    a journal of McFadden, Thomas. 2018. *ABA in stem-allomorphy and the general linguistics Glossa emptiness of the nominative. Glossa: a journal of general linguistics 3(1): 8. 1–36, DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/gjgl.373 RESEARCH *ABA in stem-allomorphy and the emptiness of the nominative Thomas McFadden Leibniz-Zentrum Allgemeine Sprachwissenschaft (ZAS), DE [email protected] In this paper I examine patterns of irregular allomorphy in nominal stems sensitive to case in a number of nominative-accusative languages. I will argue that the data surveyed reveal a certain regularity in the distribution of irregularity across the cases in that they conform to what I call the Nominative Stem-Allomorphy Generalization. One irregular stem form is always found in the nominative (and in other cases that may be systematically syncretic with it), with all other cases sharing a single other stem form. I will show that this subsumes a clear instance of a *ABA pattern, and in fact is even more restrictive, as it also shows *ABC and (qualified) *AAB. I will situate these findings relative to recent work on *ABA patterns and on case-sensitive irregularity in noun and pronoun suppletion, and then will build on that prior work to propose an account for the generalization in terms of a structured representation of nouns and case categories interacting with locality conditions on allomorphy. Keywords: stem alternations; allomorphy; case; nominative; *ABA 1 An introduction to the pattern from Tamil Nouns in the Dravidian language Tamil follow a generally agglutinative pattern in their inflection.1 As can be seen in Table 1, the case markers are easily segmentable, and the same ones attach to all nouns (with minor differences based on animacy).2 The form of the noun stem that these suffixes attach to is mostly constant, aside from the application of regular rules to ensure phonological well-formedness.

  • ONE, TWO, MANY LATINS: an INVESTIGATION INTO the RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN the PRONUNCIATION of LATIN and LATIN-ROMANCE DIGLOSSIA By
    ONE, TWO, MANY LATINS: AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PRONUNCIATION OF LATIN AND LATINROMANCE DIGLOSSIA by KEVIN RICHARD ROTH (Under the Direction of Jared Klein) ABSTRACT From the modern perspective the divide between Latin and the Romance Languages is so well established that one is tempted to regard such a development as inevitable. The terms “Vulgar Latin” and “Classical Latin” are so familiar that it is easy to imagine that the former changed over time into the Romance Languages while the latter remained the same. This scenario, however, does not take into account the ability of languages to be sufficiently elastic that the written form can retain archaic grammar and vocabulary while the spoken form advances. The preponderance of surviving evidence supports the view that Latin and forms of Romance were not consciously distinguished from one another until the Carolingian Renaissance c. AD 800. This eventual dichotomy seems to have been prompted, not by natural development, but rather by a reform in the pronunciation of Latin that was promoted at this time by the monk Alcuin. The new pronunciation eventually occasioned written forms of the Romance Languages.
