Loeb Classical Library LOEB CLASSICAL LIBRARY 2020 Founded by JAMES LOEB 1911 Edited by JEFFREY HENDERSON LOEB CLASSICAL LIBRARY Founded by JAMES LOEB 1911 Edited by JEFFREY HENDERSON Dear Friend of the Loeb Classical Library, Over a century ago, James Loeb designed his iconic volumes with an eye to easy portability, “of a size,” according to the early advertisements, “to fit in a gentleman’s pocket.” But while the coronavirus pandemic has drastically curtailed travel worldwide, it is conversely their ability to transport readers to another time and place that feels more valuable than ever. Under such circumstances, the appearance of Gareth Schmeling’s new Loeb edition of Petronius’ Satyricon and Seneca’s Apocolocyntosis is particularly welcome. Replacing the early and problematic texts and translations by Michael Heseltine and founding General Editor W. H. D. Rouse, respectively (with frequent revisions by the latter’s successors E. H. Warmington and G. P. Goold), these fresh versions of two Roman satires in prose and verse take us on a rollicking ride from Campania to Cortona, and from Olympus to the Under- world. For those of us who miss the conviviality of communal dining along with the thrill of the open road, the former also includes the hilarious Cena Trimalchionis, replete with unusual and interesting Latin vocabulary to suit all tastes. (Dormouse, anyone?) Their appetites whetted by this amusing jaunt through Italy, readers hungry for more expan- sive Mediterranean travels can treat themselves to two more somber (and sober) historical narratives: J. C. Yardley’s Livy, History of Rome, Volumes VI–VII chronicle the Second Punic War not just in the Romans’ native peninsula, but also throughout Spain, Sicily, Greece, and Macedonia, while Brian McGing’s Appian, Volumes IV–VI complete his Loeb edition of this important and relatively neglected author with five books on Rome’s civil wars that unfold on battlefields across the empire. Finally, for those who simply cannot get enough rhetoric and medicine in these tumultuous times, Gisela Striker and Ian Johnston prescribe thoughtful antidotes for escapism in their new editions of Aristotle and Galen, respectively.

  • Citations in Classics and Ancient History
    Citations in Classics and Ancient History The most common style in use in the field of Classical Studies is the author-date style, also known as Chicago 2, but MLA is also quite common and perfectly acceptable. Quick guides for each of MLA and Chicago 2 are readily available as PDF downloads. The Chicago Manual of Style Online offers a guide on their web-page: http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citationguide.html The Modern Language Association (MLA) does not, but many educational institutions post an MLA guide for free access. While a specific citation style should be followed carefully, none take into account the specific practices of Classical Studies. They are all (Chicago, MLA and others) perfectly suitable for citing most resources, but should not be followed for citing ancient Greek and Latin primary source material, including primary sources in translation. Citing Primary Sources: Every ancient text has its own unique system for locating content by numbers. For example, Homer's Iliad is divided into 24 Books (what we might now call chapters) and the lines of each Book are numbered from line 1. Herodotus' Histories is divided into nine Books and each of these Books is divided into Chapters and each chapter into line numbers. The purpose of such a system is that the Iliad, or any primary source, can be cited in any language and from any publication and always refer to the same passage. That is why we do not cite Herodotus page 66. Page 66 in what publication, in what edition? Very early in your textbook, Apodexis Historia, a passage from Herodotus is reproduced.

  • Conceptualizing and Theorizing Peace in Ancient Greece*
    Transactions of the American Philological Association 139 (2009) 225–250 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Conceptualizing and Theorizing Peace in Ancient Greece* Brown University “ Pointless Wars” (2008). As it happens, my address focuses on a different di- mension of the same problem. Although I will explore mostly Greek ideas, I could easily have chosen Roman ones too. In the late republic, after centuries of almost incessant warfare and the conquest of a huge empire, both Cicero and Sallust tried hard to demonstrate that intellectual achievements (in rhetoric, law, and history) had as much merit as those of the statesman and general. As Sallust puts it, “It is beautiful to do good for the res publica, but neither does it lack distinction to speak well: it is possible to gain renown in peace as well as in war (vel pace vel bello clarum fieri licet); both those who were doers (qui fecere) and those who wrote about the deeds of others are praised * This is a slightly revised version of the paper I delivered at the Annual Meeting of the APA in January 2009; the only major change is the addition of a section on the role of thoughts about peace in other Mediterranean societies. I presented versions of the same paper at the European Social Sciences and History Conference in Lisbon in February 2008, in the Classics Department at Brown University in March 2008, at a meeting of the European Network for the Study of Ancient Greek History in Trento in September 2008, at a colloquium on “Maintaining Peace and Interstate Stability in the Greek World” (organized by Julia Wilker at Harvard University), and at the University of Münster, both in May 2009.

Dissertations (2009 -). 740. http://epublications.marquette.edu/dissertations_mu/740 INVESTIGATIONS OF WORTH: TOWARDS A PHENOMENOLOGY OF VALUES by Dale (D.J.) Hobbs A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, WI August 2017 ABSTRACT INVESTIGATIONS OF WORTH: TOWARDS A PHENOMENOLOGY OF VALUES Dale (D.J.) Hobbs Marquette University, 2017 The purpose of this dissertation is to provide a clear and compelling account of the existence and nature of values within a phenomenological context. Values such as beauty or virtue are certainly a major part of our experiential lives. After all, what would life be worth if we could never describe a painting as beautiful, for example, or a beverage as delicious? Nevertheless, understanding what these values are on their own terms has historically been a rather difficult task. Certainly, they are not ordinary objects that could be seen or heard, touched or tasted, like the physical objects to which they seem to be connected in some mysterious way. In this dissertation, I argue that a phenomenological approach enables us to give a solid account of the role that values play in experience. Working in dialogue with Husserl and other phenomenologists and related thinkers (especially Max Scheler and Nicolai Hartmann), as well as with recent commentary, I develop my own account of values as lying on the phenomenological “horizons” of experience.

  • Politics, Competition, and the Courts in Democratic Athens Susan Lape*
    The State of Blame: Politics, Competition, and the Courts in Democratic Athens Susan Lape* Abstract Politics in democratic Athens routinely spilled over into the courts. From an Athenian perspective, this process was fundamentally democratic; it allowed the courts to provide a check on the power of individual political leaders and contributed to the view that the courts were the most democratic branch of Athenian government. That said, there were some downsides to transferring the scene of politics to the courts. When political issues and rivalries were brought into the courts, there was a tendency to render them into the court’s adversarial rhetoric. This translation of political issues into the polarizing language of judicial rhetoric in turn impoverished political reasoning and the political process. This study examines this broad process by first reviewing the culture of competitive honor that informed Athenian political and judicial practice, and then by examining how it operates in one famous and exceptionally competitive political trial in which politics and policy-making are center stage: Demosthenes’s prosecution of Aeschines for misconduct on the embassies leading to the Peace of Philocrates between Athens and Philip II of Macedon. The arguments and emotion strategies in this case indicate that intra-Athenian competition, both in and out of the courts, inflected the way foreign policy issues were conceptualized and understood, and was a factor in Athens’s inability to formulate a coherent policy and response to Philip of Macedon in the context of the Peace of Philocrates. * * * In the United States, the judicial system is supposed to be inoculated from political con- cerns, even though this is often more an ideal than reality.

  • Ten-Day Armistices in Thucydides , Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies, 33:4 (1992:Winter) P.329
    ARNUSH, MICHAEL, Ten-Day Armistices in Thucydides , Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies, 33:4 (1992:Winter) p.329 Ten-Day Armistices in Thucydides Michael Arnush HUCYDIDES OBSERVES that in the summer of 421/420, TAthens and Boeotia were observing a ten-day truce (5.26.2: £KExnptav OEX"~EPOV ~yov). But although he makes several other references to this and to other ten-day armistices (5.32.5, Corinth's failure to obtain one from Athens; 6.7.4, between Athens and the Thracian Chalcidice; 6.10.3, between Athens and some of Sparta's allies, presumably Boeotia and the Chalcidice), Thucydides does not provide specific details of the character of these truces. Andrewes' commen­ tary, which supplements Gomme's initial work, postulates a definition for this type of cease-fire: presumably a truce made in the first instance for ten days and thereafter terminable at ten days' notice by either side. A truce which needed explicit renewal every ten days would require an unconscionable amount of travelling by envoys ... and one tacitly renewed every ten days would involve risks of miscalculation.1 This interpretation misrepresents and incorrectly explains Thucydides' understanding of a ten-day cessation of hostilities, for the evidence suggests that during the Peloponnesian War poleis explicitly renewed truces every ten days; and it may be suggested that proxenoi may have been responsible for the formalities involved. If correct, this affects our understanding of proxenoi and the nature of diplomatic relations in the late fifth century. A discussion of these truces in their historical and political contexts requires first a thorough understanding of the terms I A.

  • The Agenda of Libanius' Hypotheses to Demosthenes
    The Agenda of Libanius’ Hypotheses to Demosthenes Craig A. Gibson F SCHOLARLY INTEREST AND ACTIVITY are an accurate indication, Demosthenes was alive and well in late antiquity. By the time of Libanius (A.D. 314–ca 393),1 readers of this 700-year- Iold classic were well served with secondary treatments of all kinds: rhetorical commentaries and handbooks, biographies of the orator, philological and historical commentaries, special literary studies, lexica to individual speeches (both alphabetical and non-alphabetical), and alphabetical lexica to the Attic orators as a whole. But outside the classrooms of the grammar- ians and rhetoricians, students of Demosthenes had no basic guide to the more than sixty items in this unwieldy corpus. It was to satisfy some such market as this that Libanius com- posed one of his earliest known works: a set of introductions, or “hypotheses” (Ípoy°seiw), to Demosthenes’ speeches.2 1 On Libanius’ life and writings see J. H. W. G. Liebeschuetz, Antioch: City and Imperial Administration (Oxford 1972) 1–39. Bibliography for the years 1954–81 may be found in G. Fatouros and T. Krischer, edd., Libanios (Darmstadt 1983) 275–280. 2 Text: R. Foerster, ed., Libanii Opera VIII (Leipzig 1915) 575–681. References to the hypotheses here will append the modern number of the Demosthenes ora- tion, e.g. Hyp. 25.4 [59]. Libanius was not the only ancient scholar to compose hypotheses to Demosthenes. According to the Suda, Posidonius of Olbiopolis in the second century (S 2109, discussed under 2108) and the rhetor Numenius in the first (N 518) also wrote them.

  • I Advise War. I Advise Peace: Polemological Thought in Rhetorical Speeches of the Classical Period
    Krakowskie Studia z Historii Państwa i Prawa 2018; 11 (3), s. 393–411 doi:10.4467/20844131KS.18.026.9052 www.ejournals.eu/Krakowskie-Studia-z-Historii-Panstwa-i-Prawa MARCIN NIEMCZYK University of Rzeszów I Advise War. I Advise Peace: Polemological Thought in Rhetorical Speeches of the Classical Period Abstract Polemology, as a science of studying war, is in the interest of representatives of most fi elds and academ- ic disciplines. In a special way, this kind of refl ection should be sought at the very source of Europe’s culture, that is, in the political and legal thought of Ancient Greece. In turn, part of this research should be the study of rhetorical speeches of the classical period, whose goal was to create incentives to war, or which, on the contrary, advised making peace. Given the above, the aim of this article is to attempt to look at the war rhetoric as an issue at the crossroads between diff erent disciplines. The incentive for such an approach is given by the so- called counselling speeches about war and peace by such speakers as, for example, Lisias, Aeschines, Isocrates, Cleon, Diodotus, Andocides, and Demosthenes. It is also worth noting that funeral speeches by such eminent personages as Gorgias, Lisias, Plato, Demosthenes, Pericles, and Hyperides also con- stituted part of the war rhetoric of Ancient Greece. These speeches are not only a manifestation of rhetorical art, but as they refer to such ideas as freedom, democracy, Panhellenism, or just war, they become a valuable source material for scholars dealing with rhetoric, as well as for historians of politi- cal and legal doctrines.
