ROMAN POLITICS DURING the JUGURTHINE WAR by PATRICIA EPPERSON WINGATE Bachelor of Arts in Education Northeastern Oklahoma State
ROMAN POLITICS DURING THE JUGURTHINE WAR By PATRICIA EPPERSON ,WINGATE Bachelor of Arts in Education Northeastern Oklahoma State University Tahlequah, Oklahoma 1971 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1975 SEP Ji ·J75 ROMAN POLITICS DURING THE JUGURTHINE WAR Thesis Approved: . Dean of the Graduate College 91648 ~31 ii PREFACE The Jugurthine War occurred within the transitional period of Roman politics between the Gracchi and the rise of military dictators~ The era of the Numidian conflict is significant, for during that inter val the equites gained political strength, and the Roman army was transformed into a personal, professional army which no longer served the state, but dedicated itself to its commander. The primary o~jec tive of this study is to illustrate the role that political events in Rome during the Jugurthine War played in transforming the Republic into the Principate. I would like to thank my adviser, Dr. Neil Hackett, for his patient guidance and scholarly assistance, and to also acknowledge the aid of the other members of my counnittee, Dr. George Jewsbury and Dr. Michael Smith, in preparing my final draft. Important financial aid to my degree came from the Dr. Courtney W. Shropshire Memorial Scholarship. The Muskogee Civitan Club offered my name to the Civitan International Scholarship Selection Committee, and I am grateful for their ass.istance. A note of thanks is given to the staff of the Oklahoma State Uni versity Library, especially Ms. Vicki Withers, for their overall assis tance, particularly in securing material from other libraries. -

New Evidence on the Death of Philo of Larissa (Pherc
New evidence on the death of Philo of Larissa (PHerc. 1021, col. 33,42 -34,7) 1. Introduction Philo of Larissa (159/58 or ca. 147 -84/83) was the last distinguished representative of the so-called sceptical Academy.1 He succeeded Clitomachus as scholarch in 110/09 BC and fled from Athens to Italy on the eve of the Mithridatic War and Sulla’s siege of Athens (88 BC). In Italy, Philo lectured on philosophy and attracted a lot of young noblemen, amongst them Cicero.2 A lot of valuable information about Philo’s life can be found exclusively in the final columns of Philodemus’ Index Academicorum (PHerc. 1021, col. 33,34). Although several improvements that could be made to the text since Dorandi’s edition (1991) have been published,3 a fragmentary passage between the report of Philo’s death and the mention of a person who obviously succeeded or deputised him during his absence continues to represent a puzzle to scholars (col. 33, 44 –col. 34,2). This is all the more regrettable if we take into consideration that the content of these lines could have a significant impact on the suggested supplements in the surrounding context and the whole syntax. In any case, the lines seem to contain a pivotal statement about either Philo or another Academic. * I am grateful to Tobias Reinhardt, Tiziano Dorandi, Holger Essler and Myrto Hatzimichali for valuable comments and suggestions. Furthermore I would like to thank Dirk Obbink for giving me the opportunity to discuss this paper in his Literary Papyrology class (Trinity term 2016, Oxford). -

Theophrastus and His World by Paul Millett Cambridge Classical Journal: Proceedings of the Cambridge Philolog- Ical Society, Supplementary Volume 33
Theophrastus and His World by Paul Millett Cambridge Classical Journal: Proceedings of the Cambridge Philolog- ical Society, Supplementary Volume 33. Cambridge: The Cambridge Philological Society, 2007. Pp. x + 188. ISBN 978--0--906014--32--5. Cloth $90.00 Reviewed by Ivo Volt1 University of Tartu, Estonia [email protected] The relative thinness of this book is deceptive, as the amount of information it offers is enormous. The 117 pages of main text are supplemented by 41 small-print pages of endnotes, altogether 314 of them, offering innumerable details from textual remarks to biblio- graphical data and, of course, various suggestions and interpretations. This makes the reading of the whole ‘essay’ (as the author himself repeatedly calls his book) quite an enterprise even for someone who is fairly well acquainted with scholarship on Theophrastus. From the title of the book, readers might expect a broad study on Theophrastus and his scholarly contribution, including the field for which he is most famous, viz. botany. Thus, for those interested in the history of natural sciences, it could be disappointing to find out that the book is rather a full-length treatment of Theophrastus’ Characters, which, as the sleeve-note mentions, ‘aims to locate this influential work with respect to the political and philosophical worlds of Athens in the late fourth century’. It does contain a few references to Theophrastus’ other scientific work but the focus is clearly on the Characters.2 At that, Millett’s study is a must for everyone dealing 1 The reviewer apologizes for the lateness of this review. -

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 -
1 the Politics of Fraud: a Seruilius Casca in Livy Paul Jarvis in the Late
The Politics of Fraud: A Seruilius Casca in Livy Paul Jarvis In the late second century BCE two wealthy members of the publicani committed an audacious fraud against the state. They had received the contracts for army supplies in 215 BCE, during a crucial period of the Second Punic War.1 The paper examines Livy’s account of this incident and its aftermath, in which he records the methods employed to condemn the malefactors, and the efforts of the one man prosecuted to save himself. The objective is twofold: i) to analyse Livy’s account of the political influence that the publicani displayed throughout this incident, and ii) to examine the misleading account of the tribune C. Seruilius, to whom Livy attributes the cognomen Casca. The identity and actions of this C. Seruilius ‘Casca’, a tribune of 212, have no small bearing on the incident. Ernst Badian’s brief analysis relies too heavily on a chronological argument; on this basis he unjustly dismisses the caution displayed by the senate in dealing with the unfolding events. Before proceeding it is worthwhile to discuss the approach and relevant terminology. First, the approach taken. The investigation of the evolving political power of the publicani as a class is feasible due to this instance of conflict. The publicani rarely constituted anything like a modern political party or even a Roman factio.2 It is only when a threat was perceived to their pursuit of profit that sufficient numbers of the publicani would unite to exert political influence.3 The same is true of the senate in this conflict: to use the term collectively and imply a unified front is almost always hazardous; the senate was the public expression of an oligarchy dedicated to fierce personal and factional competition.4 Nevertheless, the instance investigated comprises a serious enough conflict to crystallise for a time the fundamental differences and objectives of the two groups. -
