12 “To Free-Town, Our Common Judgement Place”: Commoners in Romeo and Juliet Barbara Mather Cobb Murray State University lthough the bulk of Shakespeare’s plays open with characters of the noble class on stage, fi ve open with commoners. A In each case, the commoner characters direct our gaze and focus our attention on the issue at hand. The device is used frequently throughout Shakespeare’s canon: the commoner character is presented matter-of-factly and sympathetically, with little affect and sometimes with little development, and thus serves a similar role to that of the Chorus in a Sophocles play, leading a commoner audience member to recognize the nature of the confl ict in the play at hand. In Coriolanus we meet an angry crowd, Citizens who are starving and who blame Caius Martius, who will become Coriolanus, for their condition. Although some scholars argue for an ambivalent audience response to this protagonist, using evidence from points later in the play, a commoner audience member would be attuned to his fl aw, his culpability, his propensity toward ego and selfi shness because they identify with the commoners who describe him this way in this fi rst interaction with these characters. Timon of Athens and Julius Caesar both begin with tradesmen: in Timon, a Poet, Painter, Jeweler, and Mercer comment on Fortune and on those whom Fortune favors, like Timon, already precursing his fall as Fortune’s wheel turns; in Julius Caesar, a Carpenter and Cobbler celebrate Caesar, prepossessing the audience toward compassion for the leader besieged by other leaders envious of his power and popularity.

Sanders, Dean of Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT This is a study of the correspondence and published writings of three-time Democratic Presidential nominee William Jennings Bryan in relation to his role in the anti-imperialist movement that opposed the US acquisition of the Philippines, Guam and Puerto Rico following the Spanish-American War. Historians have disagreed over whether Bryan was genuine in his opposition to an American empire in the 1900 presidential election and have overlooked the period following the election in which Bryan’s editorials opposing imperialism were a major part of his weekly newspaper, The Commoner. The argument is made that Bryan was authentic in his opposition to imperialism in the 1900 presidential election, as proven by his attention to the issue in the two years following his election loss.

The Commoner Issue 13 Winter 2008-2009
In the beginning there is the doing, the social flow of human interaction and creativity, and the doing is imprisoned by the deed, and the deed wants to dominate the doing and life, and the doing is turned into work, and people into things. Thus the world is crazy, and revolts are also practices of hope. This journal is about living in a world in which the doing is separated from the deed, in which this separation is extended in an increasing numbers of spheres of life, in which the revolt about this separation is ubiquitous. It is not easy to keep deed and doing separated. Struggles are everywhere, because everywhere is the realm of the commoner, and the commoners have just a simple idea in mind: end the enclosures, end the separation between the deeds and the doers, the means of existence must be free for all!

Modernity, Cosmopolitanism, and the Emergence of Middle Classes in Tonga
Modernity, Cosmopolitanism, and the Emergence of Middle Classes in Tonga Niko Besnier “The Embarrassment of the Middle Classes” A recurrent issue in our understanding of the transformations experienced by Pacifi c Island societies, and societies of the developing world in gen- eral, is the extent to which traditional social arrangements (eg, rank-based systems, inequalities predicated on colonialism, or local forms of egalitari- anism) are being displaced by social-class structures. A focus on these his- torical transformations demands that we address what constitutes a social class—an almost unsolvable problem, but nevertheless one for which we are fortunate to have a distinguished intellectual genealogy. The work of two of the founding fathers of modern-day social science, Karl Marx and Max Weber, can be understood as lifelong projects to understand social inequality in the West in terms of social-class stratifi cation. Yet, as social scientists, we continue to have diffi culties apprehending social class, par- ticularly in contexts that are not traditionally viewed as the locus of class hierarchies. This article seeks to address these diffi culties in the context of one Pacifi c Island society, Tonga. The problem is particularly acute when one deals with the middle classes, as opposed to the working or elite classes—those who are betwixt- and-between, caught in a liminal position that, like other forms of liminal- ity, are supposed to go one way or another, while in fact they remain in suspension. This suspension is particularly pertinent to the “middleness” of the middle classes and renders their very nature unstable, in contrast to the solidity that Marx attributed to both the proletariat and the bour- geoisie, groups whose self-consciousness is fi rmly ingrained in their identi- ties, and who theoretically have little trouble fi nding a common “enemy” The Contemporary Pacific, Volume 21, Number 2, 215–262 © 2009 by University of Hawai‘i Press 215 216 the contemporary pacifi c • 21:2 (2009) whose interests are opposed to their own.

Slavery in the Roman Economy
Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics Slavery in the Roman economy Version 1.0 September 2010 Walter Scheidel Stanford University Abstract: This paper discusses the location of slavery in the Roman economy. It deals with the size and distribution of the slave population and the economics of slave labor and offers a chronological sketch of the development of Roman slavery. © Walter Scheidel. [email protected] Building on Greek and Hellenistic institutions, ancient Rome created the largest slave society in history. 1 There are several reasons for defining the Roman Empire as a slave society, above all in its Italian core but also to varying degrees in its subject territories. Slaves, numbering in the millions and widely dispersed, accounted for a non-trivial share of its total population. In key areas, slaves were not merely present but supported what has been termed a ‘slave mode of production,’ a mode that rested both on an integrated system of enslavement, slave trade, and slave employment in production, and on “the systematic subjection of slaves to the control of their masters in the process of production and reproduction.” 2 Most importantly, Rome counts as a slave society in terms of the structural location of slavery: dominant groups, once again above all at the core, relied to a significant degree of slave labor to generate surplus and maintain their position of dominance. 3 Since the role of slavery in central productive processes turned Rome into a ‘slave economy’ just as the widespread domination of slaves as a primary social relationship made it a ‘slave society,’ these two terms may be used interchangeably, especially in those strata where slaves and ex-slaves continuously enveloped owners and patrons and mediated their interaction with the freeborn population.

The Origin of Social Classes, Profession and Colour in the Indo- European Societies and Ancient Persia
Journal of Anthropology and Archaeology June 2014, Vol. 2, No. 1, pp. 109-127 ISSN: 2334-2420 (Print), 2334-2439 (Online) Copyright © The Author(s). 2014. All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development The Origin of Social Classes, Profession and Colour in the Indo- European Societies and Ancient Persia Dr. Behzad Moeini Sam1 and Babak Aryanpour2 Abstract The ancient Persian society was traditionally divided into three or four different classes. Experts believe that this shared legacy went back to the Indo-European periods with its foot print, in turn, traceable in the Indo-European societies’ belief system. The important question, however, is whether these classifications were the results of such religious beliefs and their gods, or attributable to some other social factors. What role did the colours play in this classification? The Sasanian period constitutes the cardinal source of our information. We are, however, trying to find out: The origins of this classification, The nature of influence, and the role that, the element of colour played in this classification, Whether such classification was identical and uniform amongst all ancient Persian dynasties. Keyword:Ancient Iran, Colour, Class, Indo-European, Profession Introduction Some scholars study an individual’s social standings both vertically and horizontally.Vertically speaking, a person is positioned within the family, clan or tribal unit. 1 Assistan Professor at History, Azad University of Najaf Abad, Isafahan, Iran 2 PhD Candidate at History, Azad University of Najaf Abad, Isafahan, Iran 110 Journal of Anthropology and Archaeology, Vol. 2(1), June 2014 An individual can also be studied from a horizontal point of view which is the person’s work, profession and production.

Material Expressions of Wealth and Social Class at Aztec-Period Sites in Morelos, Mexico
Ancient Mesoamerica, 27 (2016), 133–147 Copyright © Cambridge University Press, 2016 doi:10.1017/S0956536115000334 MATERIAL EXPRESSIONS OF WEALTH AND SOCIAL CLASS AT AZTEC-PERIOD SITES IN MORELOS, MEXICO Jan Marie Olsona and Michael E. Smithb aEdmonton, Alberta bSchool of Human Evolution and Social Change, Arizona State University, P.O. Box 872402, Tempe, Arizona 85287-2402 Abstract We analyze residential architecture and domestic artifacts as expressions of wealth, prestige, and social class at three Aztec-period settlements in Morelos, Mexico: Capilco, Cuexcomate, and Yautepec. House size, as expressed in both floor area and construction volume, shows a strongly bimodal distribution that we interpret as marking elite and commoner residences. We test this interpretation with two artifactual indices of household wealth. One is designed to maximize the elite-commoner distinction in each setting, but is not directly comparable among contexts. The other is a simpler generic wealth index that can be compared among sites and across time. We also consider variability within the commoner class in house size and artifact inventories. While some degree of variation is present, the extent of variation is minor in comparison to the level of elite-commoner differences. INTRODUCTION Although these authors do not provide citations for the “many ar- chaeologists” or their findings, they go on to suggest that: Was there a major gulf in standards of living between Aztec nobles and commoners? The luxuriant lifestyles and great wealth of kings and high nobles, as described in many ethnohistoric documents, “when archaeologists examine the material record, the variation contrast greatly with the modest economic situation of peasants seems to be distributed along a continuum of quantity and and urban commoners as suggested by archaeological excavations quality, suggesting the existence of a continuum of social differ- of houses.
