  • The Classical Mythology of Milton's English Poems
    YALE STUDIES IN ENGLISH ALBERT S. COOK, Editor VIII THE CLASSICAL MYTHOLOGY OF Milton's English poems CHARLES GROSVENOR OSGOOD, Ph.D. NEW YORK HENRY HOLT AND COMPANY igoo Ss9a Copyright, igoo, BY CHARLES GROSVENOR OSGOOD, Ph.D. J^ 7/SS TO PROFESSQR ALBERT S. COOK AND PROFESSOR THOMAS D. SEYMOUR — PREFACE The student who diligently peruses the lines of a great poem may go far toward a realization of its char- acter. He may appreciate, in a degree, its loveliness, strength, and direct hold upon the catholic truth of life. But he will be more sensitive to these appeals, and receive gifts that are richer and less perishable, accord- ing as he comprehends the forces by whose interaction the poem was produced. These are of two kinds the innate forces of the poet's character, and certain more external forces, such as, in the case of Milton, are represented by Hellenism and Hebraism. Their activ- ity is greatest where they meet and touch, and at this point their nature and measure are most easily dis- cerned. From a contemplation of the poem in its gene- sis one returns to a deeper understanding and enjoyment of it as a completed whole. The present study, though it deals with but one of the important cultural influ- ences affecting Milton, and with it but in part, endeav- ors by this method to deepen and clarify the apprecia- tion of his art and teaching. My interest in the present work has found support and encouragement in the opinions of Mr. Churton Collins, as expressed in his valuable book.

  • 6 the God Liber and the Republican Notions of Libertas in the Late Roman Republic
    6 The god Liber and the Republican Notions of Libertas in the late Roman Republic I This essay focuses on the Roman god Liber and its relation with the notion of libertas in the first century BC. A very powerful, and prima facie convincing, explanation of this relation is, in the words of one of the most authoritative scholars in the field, that ‘by name and by nature, Liber is the god of freedom … Though many explanations were offered by ancient sources to account for his name, the simplest and most obvious was an ideological one: Liber a libertate. Political freedom, libertas, was the defining quality of the Roman Republic, achieved by the expulsion of Tarquin and under threat ever after,’ and which found its divinisation in Liber.1 a notable exception Raaflaub 2000 in Hansen birthday, 257. Il punto non e’ sbagliato, ma richiede revision. Non si tratat della political liberty di provocatio. However, when analysing the evidence at our disposal, it is possible to observe that Liber is conceived as enacting different forms of liberation: Liber frees the individual from worries and fears, frees the soul from the constraints of a mortal body, and frees the semen, both male and female, in sexual union.2 As Anthony Corbeill brilliantly put it, Liber was conceived as fulfilling the role of both the Realiser and the Liberator.3 Building on recent works that move away from a linear development of Liber in Rome as an Italic deity of subversive traits, gradually tamed in the third and second century BC through a process of Hellenisation, and considering

  • On Why the Slingshot Against the Correspondence Theory of Truth Misfires
    ISSN 1393-614X Minerva - An Internet Journal of Philosophy 10 (2006): 28-34 ____________________________________________________ On Why the Slingshot against the Correspondence Theory of Truth Misfires Arhat Virdi Abstract According to the correspondence theory of truth, a statement is true just in case it corresponds to the facts. The slingshot argument demonstrating that there can be only one fact is understood by some philosophers to deliver a coup de grâce to the correspondence theory. Others, however, seek to deflect the slingshot by appealling to Russell’s non-referential theory of definite descriptions. I argue that the slingshot argument is immune to semantical considerations concerning definite descriptions. The slingshot argument is valid. However, I also argue that this fails to demonstrate the untenability of the correspondence theory of truth. According to the correspondence theory of truth, a statement is true just in case it corresponds to the facts. For instance, the statement that snow is white is true just in case it corresponds to the fact that snow is white. The theory has invited a number of criticisms and counter-arguments. Among them is the so-called ‘slingshot argument’. This demonstrates that (at most) there can be only one fact. In rendering the notion of fact redundant, the argument is thereby taken to cripple the correspondence thesis in positing entia non grata. Given that the mechanics of the argument rest on minimal logical machinery and appears to cripple a venerable philosophical thesis in one fell swoop, one sees why the David and Goliath metaphor has been employed. Donald Davidson, for example, has long been convinced by all this, advocating ‘[t]here is good reason, then, to be skeptical about the importance of the correspondence theory of truth.’ (Davidson 1999: 106).
