In fact,the number of studies on the historical features of the contacts between Ancient East and West has grown in recent years, as testified by certain works.³ However,evenifweare sat- isfied with our level of knowledge of historicaland economic connections,we cannot saythe same for the history of thoughtinits various facets.For instance, ancient evidence about connections among ancient Roman, Greek, and Chinese authorsisvery poor.But,inthe XVIIth and XVIIIth centuries, the Jesuit fathers, such as Ricci, Intorcetta, and Longobardi, described and discussed in manypas- sages of their books the thoughtofChinese philosophers and writers by using their ownculturalmemoriesascultivated Western men. These writers were well-versed not onlyinChristian textsand the Vulgate, but alsoinCicero, Sene- ca, Plutarch, and manyother ancient authors. They read ‘their’ China, ‘their’ Korea, and ‘their’ Japan with the eyes of men deeplyrooted in their culture, mak- ing comparisons – implicit or explicit – between Confucius, Meng Zhou, and Roman writers.Moreover,they composed their books in Latinand had thus to develop effective linguistic strategies to allow Western readers to understand Eastern thought.

With Roma Sinica,wehope to build a meaningful contribution to the composition of this history.Morethanjust aser- ies, Roma Sinica sets out to open new perspectivesincomparative studies, taking amultidisciplinary approach within the humanities and offering scholars inter- ested in this field an opportunity to exchangeideas, to discuss their work, and to have it published by apublisherasprestigious as De Gruyter. The first step of this project was the international conference held in Turin on September 5-6th, 2017,with the title, “Confucius and Cicero: new ideas for an old world, old ideas for anew world.” The organizers approachedtwo pivotal figures of Eastern and Western civilization from an unusual angle. While Latin Jesuit sources seem more frequentlytobring together Seneca and Confucius, pa- pers in this volume have taken original approachestosearch out connections be- tween the twothinkers thatare not always so clear. The volume opens with an introductory section whereFritz-Heiner Mutschler (Comparing Confucius and Cicero:Problems and Possibilities)addresses the sub- ject of the conference, examining in depth the meaning and value of an inquiry into the opportunities and limits of the comparison between Cicero and Confu- cius. His concluding remarks are worth noting: “The comparison between Con- fucius and Ciceromay not be without pitfalls, but if it is done with circumspec- tion and caution towards hasty conclusions it can teach us much, not onlyabout the two individuals but also about the two cultures to which they belong.” The second section creates, as it were, the philosophical background from which acomparison between Confucius and Cicerocan develop. Tongdong Bai (ThePrivate and the Public in the Republic and in the Analects)draws acompar- ison between Plato’s Republic and Confucius’ Analects,two essential texts of po- litical philosophyinWestern and Eastern Culture, exploring which model can better account for the conflict between the privateand the public spheres.G. Parkes (Confucian and Daoist, Stoic and Epicurean. Some Parallels in Ways of Liv- ing)looks for possible opportunities of comparison between the philosophical ideas of the Stoics,Epicureans,and Daoists. Parkes’ perspective devotes great attention to modernproblems of ecology and the survival of the Earth. Jungsam Yum(Mind and Ritual in the Xunzi)carefullyexplores the meaning of Li 禮,rit- ual, going beyond Confucian boundaries in order to encounter Xunzi’sthought. The third section dealswith problems of translating Confuciusinto Latinas ameans of making his thought accessible to Western readers. M. Ferrero(The Latin translations of Confucius’ Dialogue – Lun Yu –.Acomparison of key con- cepts), in an extensive and rich paper,examines the translation choicesofkey Chinese conceptsinto Latin proposed by Ruggieri, Couplet,Zottoli, Cheung, and othertranslators from the end of XVIthcentury.

  • The Development of Sacrosanctum Concilium Part 2 Or, How to Grok
    The development of Sacrosanctum Concilium Part 2 - a presentation by Seán O’Seasnáin on becoming familiar with Vatican II and the Liturgy with a focus on Chapter 4 of What Happened at Vatican II by John W. O’Malley The Lines Are Drawn - The First Period (1962) or, How to grok Sacrosanctum Concilium (SC) while avoiding moonbats and wingnuts from the vantage point of a young Irish friar in formation at the time of Vatican II The four aggiornamento modernization principles identified by John W. O’Malley p140f 1) ressourcement 2) adaptation 3) episcopal collegiality and 4) active participation (Ch.4 of What Happened at Vatican II) are correctly described by O’Malley as fundamental and traditional principles. In a harsh and pedantic review of What Happened at Vatican II the late Richard John Neuhaus, on one hand gives O’Malley back-handed compliments for his balanced analysis, and in the next sentence rushes in to castigate him with misleading accusations of presenting the ‘discontinuity’ perspective of the council. Neuhaus writes dismissively: “What Happened at Vatican II is a 372-page brief for the party of novelty and discontinuity. Its author comes very close to saying explicitly what is frequently implied: that the innovationists practiced subterfuge, and they got away with it” [10]. I would have to credit Neuhaus with providing a reminder here of how appropriate the ‘moonbat’ and ‘wingnut’ designations are when it comes to critiques of Vatican II and the liturgy. He writes: “In the decades following the council, many liberals made no secret of their belief that aggiornamento was a mandate for radical change, even revolution.

Statuto, art. 8) PRESENTAZIONE Carissimi Soci dell’ABS, questo Bollettino esce nell’Anno paolino e nel 150° anniversario della fondazione della Congregazione salesiana. Una duplice ricorrenza, che sollecita l’ABS a un rinnovato impegno nel servizio alla Parola di Dio, ai Confratelli e all’intera Famiglia salesiana, alla Chiesa. Nel presente numero la prima parte, come al solito, è dedicata alla vita dell’Associazione. Grazie all’interessamento dei rispettivi Consiglieri, siamo riusciti a raccogliere molte notizie delle tre regioni (Americhe, Asia e Oceania, Europa e Africa). Purtroppo non ci hanno mandato notizie diversi soci, che pure stanno lavorando in campo biblico. Speriamo di avere più materiale per il prossimo anno. Uno spazio specifico è riservato alle nostre Pubblicazioni. Scorrendo i titoli, si rimane impressionati per la mole di lavoro anche editoriale, frutto dello studio e delle iniziative pastorali dei nostri Soci. Anche a questo riguardo, molti dati sono unicamente “scritti nel cielo”. Chissà se, anche in ritardo, non troveranno la strada del nostro Bollettino di collegamento! Ci è sembrato bello in questo Anno paolino dare spazio a un paio di contributi riguardanti l’Apostolo: il primo del Presidente ABS (Paolo pastore. Una lettura salesiana), il secondo tratto da una recente pubblicazione dello Studium Theologicum di Gerusalemme (Saint Paul and Don Bosco, di don Michele Ferrero). Tra le Esperienze - alcune di esse sono registrate nella rubrica “Vita dell’Associazione - meritava di essere segnalata quella del nostro don Lanfranco Fedrigotti, Presidente del Hong Kong Catholic Biblical Institute.

  • How Did the Romans Really Crucify Jesus? Richard Binder, September 27, 2020 (Edited March 14, 2021)
    How Did the Romans Really Crucify Jesus? Richard Binder, September 27, 2020 (edited March 14, 2021) This article is the conclusion of a secular exploration of an event that some people devoutly believe happened, while others deny the very existence of its central character. That event, or non-event, was the crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth. You can find the complete series of articles at this Web address: http://www.richardspens.com/?crux= For nearly two millennia, the method by which Jesus of Nazareth was crucified has been a subject of speculation by Christians, archaeologists, historians, and others whose interest might be based on little or nothing more than curiosity. There exist countless religious paintings, sculptures, and corpora on crucifixes, and there exist also many ancient writings describing crucifixion as practiced by the Romans. This article is an attempt to pull together several applicable threads of information with the purpose of describing without religious bias just how Jesus’ crucifixion was carried out. One thing we can be sure of is that Jesus’ death on the cross did not appear as it is portrayed in depictions intended for veneration by the faithful, typified by the three images shown here—for it was horrifyingly unsuited to that purpose. In this article, I shall refer to works of this type as “traditional” depictions. The Ancona Crucifixion, by Crucifixion from an English A modern Roman Catholic crucifix Titian, 1558 psalter, c. 1225 All three of the above images show nails through Jesus’ palms, one nail holding both feet to the front of the cross, and Jesus wearing a loincloth and hung on a Latin cross.

Michael White Steven J. Friesen No Longer a Slave: Manumission in the Social World of Paul by Michael A. Flexsenhar III, B.A., M.T.S. Report Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin May 2013 Dedication In memoriam Janet Ruth Flexsenhar mea avia piissima Abstract No Longer a Slave: Manumission in the Social World of Paul Michael A. Flexsenhar III, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2013 Supervisor: L. Michael White The Roman Empire was a slave society. New Testament and Early Christian scholars have long recognized that slaves formed a substantial portion of the earliest Christian communities. Yet there has been extensive debate about manumission, the freeing of a slave, both in the wider context of the Roman Empire and more specifically in Paul’s context. 1 Cor. 7:20-23 is a key passage for understanding both slavery and manumission in Pauline communities, as well as Paul’s own thoughts on these two contentious issues. The pivotal verse is 1 Cor. 7:21. The majority opinion is that Paul is suggesting slaves should become free, i.e., manumitted, if they are able. In order to better understand this biblical passage and its social implications, this project explores the various types of manumissions operative the Roman world: the legal processes and results; the factors that galvanized and constrained manumissions; the political and social environment surrounding manumission in Corinth during Paul’s ministry; as well as the results of manumission as it relates to Paul’s communities.

  • Thesis Draft 3.23.2014.Docx
    Cicero and Caesar: A Turbulent Amicitia by Adam L. Parison June, 2014 Director of Thesis/Dissertation: Dr. Frank E. Romer Major Department: History Though some study into the relationship between Cicero and Caesar has occurred, it is relatively little and the subject warrants more consideration. This is a significant gap in the historiography of late republican history. This thesis examines and attempts to define their relationship as a public amicitia. By looking at the letters of Cicero, his three Caesarian speeches, and his philosophical dialogue de Amicitia, I show that the amicitia between these two men was formed and maintained as a working relationship for their own political benefit, as each had something to gain from the other. Cicero’s extant letters encompass a little more than the last twenty years of Cicero’s life, when some of the most important events in Roman history were occurring. In this thesis, I examine selected letters from three collections, ad Quintum fratrem, ad Familiares, and ad Atticum for clues relating to Caesar’s amicitia with Cicero. These letters reveal the tumultuous path that the amicitia between Cicero and Caesar took over the years of the mid-50s until Caesar’s death, and , surprisingly, show Cicero’s inability to choose a side during the Civil War and feel confident in that choice. After Caesar’s victory at Pharsalus in 48, the letters reveal that Cicero hoped that Caesar could or would restore the republic, and that as time passed, he became less optimistic about Caesar and his government, but still maintained the public face of amicitia with Caesar.
