GENERAL INTEREST A World Divided A global history of human rights in a world of nation-states that grant rights to some while denying them to others Once dominated by vast empires, the world is now divided into close to 200 independent countries with laws and constitutions proclaiming human rights—a transformation that suggests that nations and human rights inevitably developed together. But the reality is far more problematic, as Eric Weitz shows in this compelling global history of the fate of human rights in a world of nation-states. Through vivid histories drawn from virtually every continent, A World Divided describes how, since the eighteenth century, nationalists have struggled to establish their own states that grant human rights to some people. At the same time, they have excluded others through forced assimilation, ethnic cleansing, or even genocide. From Greek rebels, American settlers, and Brazilian abolitionists in the nineteenth century to anticolonial Africans and Zionists in the “In this magisterial and riveting work of global twentieth, nationalists have confronted a crucial history, Weitz chronicles the gradual, uneven, question: Who has the "right to have rights?" A World and disputed emergence of contemporary Divided tells these stories in colorful accounts focusing norms of international human rights from the on people who were at the center of events.

Reviewed by Herb Hirsch, Professor of Political Science, L. Douglas Wilder School of Government and Public Affairs, Virginia Commonwealth University; Co-Editor, Genocide Studies and Prevention At first glance, a book that is a critical analysis of US culture might appear not be relevant to the study and prevention of genocide. This would be a profound mistake. Chris Hedges’ analysis is not only applicable but important. Hedges, author of the National Book Critics Circle–nominated War Is a Force That Gives Us Meaning (2002), has given those who consider themselves genocide scholars much to think about and to apply to their concerns.

  • 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.

  • THE PONTIFICAL LAW of the ROMAN REPUBLIC by MICHAEL
    THE PONTIFICAL LAW OF THE ROMAN REPUBLIC by MICHAEL JOSEPH JOHNSON A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Classics written under the direct of T. Corey Brennan and approved by ____________________________ ____________________________ ____________________________ ____________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October, 2007 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Pontifical Law of the Roman Republic by MICHAEL JOSEPH JOHNSON Dissertation Director: T. Corey Brennan This dissertation investigates the guiding principle of arguably the most important religious authority in ancient Rome, the pontifical college. Chapter One introduces the subject and discusses the hypothesis the dissertation will advance. Chapter Two examines the place of the college within Roman law and religion, giving particular attention to disproving several widely held notions about the relationship of the pontifical law to the civil and sacral law. Chapter Three offers the first detailed examination of the duties of the pontifical college as a collective body. I spend the bulk of the chapter analyzing two of the three collegiate duties I identify: the issuing of documents known as decrees and responses and the supervision of the Vestal Virgins. I analyze all decrees and responses from the point of view their content, treating first those that concern dedications, then those on the calendar, and finally those on vows. In doing so my goal is to understand the reasoning behind the decree and the major theological doctrines underpinning it. In documenting the pontifical supervision of Vestal Virgins I focus on the college's actions towards a Vestal accused of losing her chastity.

  • Lucan's Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulf
    Lucan’s Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2014 Reading Committee: Catherine Connors, Chair Alain Gowing Stephen Hinds Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Classics © Copyright 2014 Laura Zientek University of Washington Abstract Lucan’s Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Catherine Connors Department of Classics This dissertation is an analysis of the role of landscape and the natural world in Lucan’s Bellum Civile. I investigate digressions and excurses on mountains, rivers, and certain myths associated aetiologically with the land, and demonstrate how Stoic physics and cosmology – in particular the concepts of cosmic (dis)order, collapse, and conflagration – play a role in the way Lucan writes about the landscape in the context of a civil war poem. Building on previous analyses of the Bellum Civile that provide background on its literary context (Ahl, 1976), on Lucan’s poetic technique (Masters, 1992), and on landscape in Roman literature (Spencer, 2010), I approach Lucan’s depiction of the natural world by focusing on the mutual effect of humanity and landscape on each other. Thus, hardships posed by the land against characters like Caesar and Cato, gloomy and threatening atmospheres, and dangerous or unusual weather phenomena all have places in my study. I also explore how Lucan’s landscapes engage with the tropes of the locus amoenus or horridus (Schiesaro, 2006) and elements of the sublime (Day, 2013).

  • Forbidden to Enter the Ara Maxima: Dogs and Flies, Or Dogflies?*)
    FORBIDDEN TO ENTER THE ARA MAXIMA: DOGS AND FLIES, OR DOGFLIES?*) by CHRISTOPHER MICHAEL MCDONOUGH Of the numerous oddities connected with the worship of Hercules at the Ara Maxima, surely the strangest is the exclusion of ies and dogs. Pliny the Elder writes, Romae in aedem Herculis in foro Boario nec muscae nec canes intrant (HN 10.79). Solinus, who generally follows Pliny,1) expatiates upon this idea, remarking (1.11), Suo quoque numini idem Hercules instituit aram, quae maxima apud ponti ces habetur, cum se ex Nicostrate ...inmortalem conperisset. Consaeptum etiam, intra quod ritus sacrorum, factis bovicidis, docuit Potitios, sacellum in Boario foro est, in quo argumenta et convivii et maiestatis ipsius remanent. Nam divinitus neque muscis illo neque canibus ingressus est. Furthermore, Hercules likewise set up an altar to his own godhood, an altar called the Greatest by the ponti Vs, after he discovered from Nicostrate ...that he was immortal. The enclosed shrine—within which he taught the Potitii the rites of worship after the bull-sacri ce— is in the Forum Boarium, in which the signs of both his banquet and his majesty reside. For, in a divine manner, it may be entered there neither by ies or dogs. Plutarch, on the other hand,—apparently drawing on Varro,—men- tions only an exclusion of dogs, asking ( RQ 90 = Mor. 285 E-F), DiŒ tÛ tÒ „HrakleÝ ginom¡ nhw yusÛaw llon oéd¡ na yeÇn ônom‹zousin oéd¢ faÛnetai kævn ¤ntòw tÇn peribñlvn , Éw B‹rrvn ßstñrhken ;2) Why is no other god mentioned during the sacri ce to Hercules? And why is it that no dog is seen within his enclosures, as Varro records? *) A version of this paper was read at the one hundred and twenty-eighth meet- ing of the American Philological Association in Washington, D.C., December 1992.

  • Classical Philology and Theology Edited by Catherine Conybeare , Simon Goldhill Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-49483-0 — Classical Philology and Theology Edited by Catherine Conybeare , Simon Goldhill Frontmatter More Information CLASSICAL PHILOLOGY AND THEOLOGY Modern disciplinary silos tend to separate the fields of classical philology and theology. This collection of essays, however, explores for the first time the deep and significant interactions between them. It demonstrates how from antiquity to the present they have marched hand in hand, informing each other with method, views of the past and structures of argument. The volume rewrites the history of discipline formation, and reveals how close the seminar is to the seminary. catherine conybeare is Leslie Clark Professor in the Humanities at Bryn Mawr College. She is an authority on the Latin texts of late antiquity, and is the author of four books, including The Laughter of Sarah: Biblical Exegesis, Feminist Theory, and the Concept of Delight (2013). She is also the editor of a new series for Cambridge University Press, Cultures of Latin from Antiquity to the Enlightenment. simon goldhill is Professor of Greek at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of King’s College. He is one of the best- known writers on Greek literature and cultures, publishing almost twenty books and numerous articles on texts and topics from the whole span of antiquity and its reception. His books have won three international prizes and have been translated into ten languages. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-49483-0

    Webster 1132 24/10/03 10:02 am Page 444 TOM WEBSTER Stanford University Webster 1132 24/10/03 10:02 am Page 445 Thomas Bertram Lonsdale Webster 1905–1974 TOM WEBSTER was born on 3 July 1905. He grew up in London, and lived there for twenty years in middle and later life, when he was Pro- fessor of Greek in the University at University College, the scene of much of his most fruitful work. For seventeen years before that, he was Hulme Professor of Greek at Manchester, taking up his appointment at the age of twenty-six, as the University recalled with pride and affec- tion when it made him, in 1965, an honorary Doctor of Letters. He began his academic career with eight years (mainly) at Oxford, as an undergraduate and then a young don at Christ Church, with a fruitful interlude at Leipzig; he ended it with six years at Stanford, as Profes- sor of Classics and then Emeritus. At and after the end of the First World War he was a schoolboy at Charterhouse; during the Second World War he served as an officer in Military Intelligence. He died on 31 May 1974 after a terminal illness of some six weeks, active until then as ever. A photograph taken at Stanford accompanies this memoir.1 It shows the Emeritus Professor in his element, in a classroom. He looks much as many people knew him from early middle age onwards ‘incredibly close to the man as he was in 1939’, as one former pupil writes. If the image suggests a tall, spare figure with (in later years) a scholar’s forward stoop, so much to the good.
