Quotational Practice in Two Bilingual Treatises on Love by Gérard of Liège Cum dicit auctoritas: Quotational Practice in Two Bilingual Treatises on Love by Gérard of Liège Adham B. Azab Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 © 2019 Adham B. Azab All rights reserved Abstract Cum dicit auctoritas: Quotational Practice in Two Bilingual Treatises on Love by Gérard of Liège Adham B. Azab “Cum dicit auctoritas: Quotational Practice in Two Bilingual Treatises on Love by Gérard of Liège” is the first dedicated study of two oft discussed and poorly understood thirteenth-century love treatises known mainly for their unusual, syntactically integrated mixture of Latin and Old French. In addition to providing the first complete translation into any modern language of the treatises—Septem remedia contra amorem illicitum valde utilia (Seven Very Useful Remedies for Illicit Love) and De divino amore (On Divine Love, formerly Quinque incitamenta ad Deum amandum ardenter)—this dissertation aims to shed light upon Gérard’s practice of quotation, particularly as it pertains to the construction of authority. Each chapter takes a particular category of quotation as its subject, and shows not only how that category functions within Gérard’s treatises, but also how it may inform current scholarship in medieval studies. The first chapter contains the translation of both treatises. In the second chapter, “The Poetic Practice of Gérard of Liège in De divino amore,” I reexamine the Old French refrain corpus in light of what I call Gérard’s “refraining”—a poetic and quotational practice that bridges the sacred-profane divide in his treatise De divino amore. The third chapter, “Cum vulgo dicitur: Proverbs and the Language of Authority,” concerns the changing relationship of linguistic authority between French and Latin in the thirteenth century. The fourth chapter, “Quoting and Rewriting the Church Fathers: The Making of Thirteenth-Century Authority,” examines some of the most emotionally disturbing and striking quotations in Gérard’s treatises in order to explain how Gérard establishes his own authority; in addition, this chapter presents a new perspective on the concepts of auctoritas and authorship as they pertain to medieval religious texts. In the fifth and final chapter, “Septem remedia amoris: Classical Latin Poetry in the Treatises of Gérard of Liège,” I focus on Gérard’s much maligned first treatise—the Septem remedia contra amorem illicitum—to uncover its deep, Ovidian underpinnings, and I ask why Classical Latin poetry is almost entirely absent from the second treatise, De divino amore.

Bibliography ............................................................................................................. p. 330 i Acknowledgments These words represent the end of a six-and-a-half-year journey that has been by turns harrowing and felicitous. I imagined that I would find great relief in writing them, but instead, my mind is aswirl with the names of all of the people I want to thank, and I am tormented by my inability to find the language to thank them. How can I thank the people who made it possible for me to achieve a dream I wrote down in a time capsule in elementary school? And given the magnitude of the sacrifices they have made on my behalf, how could I dare even think about assuaging my anxiety by taking the easy way out—writing something like, “Words are not enough to express my gratitude to the following people,” and being done with it? Although words are truly not enough, I will try to find some nevertheless. I begin by thanking my family. My father and mother, Andy and Paula Azab, risked their long-term physical and financial health to give me the privilege of higher education, which they did not have. My achievement is theirs. In addition, I am grateful for my uncle and aunt, Mohamed and Resi Abdelrahman, who helped to fund my undergraduate education when my parents fell on especially hard times. Second, I give my hearty thanks to my Vergil, my former advisor at Tufts University, Professor Vincent J. Pollina, who encouraged me to declare a French major just a few weeks into my first semester, and who became my intellectual father. Over the years, I have tried in vain to live up to his example. One day, likely in my second year at Tufts, Professor Pollina said, “Perhaps we’ll make a medievalist of you yet!” to which I replied, “Jamais de la vie !” But here I am. Third, I thank the community of scholars who have nurtured my research—above all, the co-sponsors of my dissertation, Professor Carmela Vircillo Franklin in the Department of ii Classics, and Professor Eliza Zingesser in the Department of French and Romance Philology. I am grateful to Professor Franklin for teaching me how to appreciate (and love) medieval Latin literature, for helping me to come closer to my philological ideal, and for her immense generosity. I do not know how many times she welcomed me into her office or took calls on short notice so that I could discuss pressing concerns and linguistic obsessions with her. As for Professor Zingesser, from the beginning of her time at Columbia—while teaching multiple new courses and working on numerous research projects—she provided the prompt, detailed feedback and rigorous structure that I needed in order to be able to complete this dissertation. I am honored to be her first advisee and am entirely certain that I would not have completed this program in six and a half years, or perhaps ever, without her wisdom and guidance. I also extend my thanks to Professor Neslihan Şenocak, Professor Eleanor Johnson, Professor Susan Boynton, Dr. Consuelo Dutschke (RBML), Professor Marc Smith (École nationale des chartes), Professor Emeritus Christopher J. McDonough (University of Toronto), Professor Frank T. Coulson (Ohio State University), Dr. Michiel Verweij (Bibliothèque royale de Belgique), Pierre Gandil (Médiathèque du Grand Troyes), Professor Nicole Bériou (IHRT), and her student, the Abbé Christophe Lefebvre, all of whom provided me with critical insight into different dimensions of my project. In addition, I owe a special debt of gratitude to Professor Evelyn “Timmie” Birge Vitz at NYU for helping me to see precisely how I might write a dissertation on Gérard’s practice of quotation. The brainstorming sessions we had while I was at the prospectus-writing stage enabled me to devise an outline that I was actually able to hold to, and I continue to consider myself very fortunate for that. Fourth, I would like to thank the institutions that have funded my research—namely, the Department of French and Romance Philology, the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, and iii the Medieval Academy of America. Within my department, I thank Professor Pierre Force and Professor Souleymane Bachir Diagne for their kindness and leadership. Furthermore, I thank Benita Dace, Isabelle Chagnon, and Meritza Moss, who all guided and encouraged me from the very beginning of my time at Columbia. Dr. Pascale Hubert-Leibler, my friend and mentor, taught me everything I know about teaching, and much more besides—many of my best ideas took shape in conversation with her, and her experience helped me to learn from many of my failures in and out of the classroom. Beyond the borders of Morningside Heights, the Medieval Academy of America awarded me the prestigious 2017-2018 Étienne Gilson Dissertation Grant, which gave me the means to perform critical research in Paris; I am most grateful for the Medieval Academy’s support of my project, and to be associated with the immortal Étienne Gilson. Fifth, I have been blessed with some of the best classmates anyone could hope for. Kat Balkoski, Kalinka Alvarez Courtois, Rose Gardner, Sarah Myers, Inés Nam, and Dr. Ruen- Chuan Ma have been loyal friends in trying times and true thought partners, though we all study different material. I am proud to be able to call myself their friend and colleague. Finally, I return to my family in thanking Peng Xu for loving and caring for me even as I became an increasingly difficult and unlovable person. One day a few years ago, as I was struggling to write and wondering aloud, in frustrated tones, for whom I was really writing this

Published by the University of Cape Town (UCT) in terms of the non-exclusive license granted to UCT by the author. University of Cape Town Abstract The Facta et Dicta Memorabilia of Valerius Maximus, written during the formative stages of the Roman imperial system, survives as a near unique instance of an entire work composed in the genre of Latin exemplary literature. By providing the first detailed historical and historiographical commentary on Book 9 of this prose text – a section of the work dealing principally with vice and immorality – this thesis examines how an author employs material predominantly from the earlier, Republican, period in order to validate the value system which the Romans believed was the basis of their world domination and to justify the reign of the Julio-Claudian family. By detailed analysis of the sources of Valerius’ material, of the way he transforms it within his chosen genre, and of how he frames his exempla, this thesis illuminates the contribution of an often overlooked author to the historiography of the Roman Empire.

  • The Genius of Roman Law from a Law and Economics Perspective
    THE GENIUS OF ROMAN LAW FROM A LAW AND ECONOMICS PERSPECTIVE By Juan Javier del Granado 1. What makes Roman law so admirable? 2. Asymmetric information and numerus clausus in Roman private law 2.1 Roman law of property 2.1.1 Clearly defined private domains 2.1.2 Private management of resources 2.2 Roman law of obligations 2.2.1 Private choices to co-operate 2.2.2 Private choices to co-operate without stipulating all eventualities 2.2.3 Private co-operation within extra-contractual relationships 2.2.4 Private co-operation between strangers 2.3 Roman law of commerce and finance 3. Private self-help in Roman law procedure 4. Roman legal scholarship in the restatement of civil law along the lines of law and economics 1. What makes Roman law so admirable? Law and economics aids us in understanding why Roman law is still worthy of admiration and emulation, what constitutes the “genius” of Roman law. For purposes of this paper, “Roman law” means the legal system of the Roman classical period, from about 300 B.C. to about 300 A.D. I will not attempt the tiresome job of being or trying to be a legal historian in this paper. In the manner of German pandect science, let us stipulate that I may arbitrarily choose certain parts of Roman law as being especially noteworthy to the design of an ideal private law system. This paper discusses legal scholarship from the ius commune. It will also discuss a few Greek philosophical ideas which I believe are important in the Roman legal system.

  • Justinian's Redaction
    JUSTINIAN'S REDACTION. "Forhim there are no dry husks of doctrine; each is the vital develop- ment of a living germ. There is no single bud or fruit of it but has an ancestry of thousands of years; no topmost twig that does not greet with the sap drawn from -he dark burrows underground; no fibre torn away from it but has been twisted and strained by historic wheels. For him, the Roman law, that masterpiece of national growth, is no sealed book ..... ... but is a reservoir of doctrine, drawn from the watershed of a world's civilization!'* For to-day's student of law, what worth has the half- dozen years' activity of a few Greek-speakers by the Bos- phorus nearly fourteen centuries ago? Chancellor Kent says: "With most of the European nations, and in the new states of Spanish America, and in one of the United States, it (Roman law) constitutes the principal basis of their unwritten or common law. It exerts a very considerable influence on our own municipal law, and particularly on those branches of it which are of equity and admiralty jurisdiction, or fall within the cognizance of the surrogate or consistorial courts . It is now taught and obeyed not only in France, Spain, Germany, Holland, and Scotland, but in the islands of the Indian Ocean, and on the banks of the Mississippi and St. Lawrence. So true, it seems, are the words of d'Agnesseau, that 'the grand destinies of Rome are not yet accomplished; she reigns throughout the world by her reason, after having ceased to reign by her authority?'" And of the honored jurists whose names are carved on the stones of the Law Building of the University of Pennsyl- vania another may be cited as viewing the matter from a different standpoint.

  • Anglo-Saxon Constitutional History
    Roman Law 10/6/2020 page 1 THE LAW OF THINGS 1. For Gaius, and to a not much lesser extent Justinian, the law of things is divided into three parts: things (res) __________________________________|_______________________________ | | | acquisition of acquisition per universitatem acquisition and single things (mostly succession including extinction of obligations. legacies and fideicommissa [trusts]) GI.2.19–96 GI.2.97–289,GI.3.1–87 GI.3.88–225 Acquisition per universitatem requires explanation. It means acquisition of things in a mass, or more colloquially things in a bunch, and it refers to someone’s entire estate, both the property and the obligations, thought of as passing as a whole, usually when the person died. We haven’t done much different. This is roughly 1st-year property, wills and trusts (with a dash of bankruptcy), and 1st-year contracts and torts. The first and third parts are relatively easy and fun. The issues ought to be familiar, even if the specific resolutions are not. The middle part is long and complicated. We’ll deal with it in the next lecture. 2. Let us try to burrow into the distinction between property and obligation, because it is clear that the intermediate category is where it is because it includes both property and obligations. We should be careful. Our word ‘property’ is derived from Latin proprietas, but that word is not nearly so common in legal Latin as ‘property’ is our legal language.1 Gaius probably would have understood what we meant if we asked him what separates proprietas from obligatio, but he might not have.

  • “Riders in the Chariot”: Sons Accompanying Their Fathers In
    1 ‘Riders in the Chariot’; Children Accompanying their Fathers in Roman Triumphs Bruce Marshall ASCS Honorary Secretary / Macquarie University [email protected] It is a generally held view in the modern literature, based on a few pieces of ancient evidence, that it was a common practice for the children, especially sons, of a successful general who had been awarded a triumph to accompany their father in his triumphal procession. One such recent example is the work on triumphs by Mary Beard who writes: It seems to have been, or become, the custom that the general’s young children should travel in the [triumphal] chariot with him, or, if they were older, to ride horses alongside. We have already seen Germanicus sharing his chariot in 17 CE with five offspring. Appian claims that Scipio in 201 BCE was accompanied by ‘boys and girls’, while Livy laments the fact that in 167 BCE Aemilius Paullus’ young sons could not – through death or sickness – travel with him, ‘planning similar triumphs for themselves.’1 But there is such a small number of examples that it might be worth testing the validity of this common view about children accompanying their fathers in triumphs. The earliest example relates to Q. Fabius Maximus Rullianus, five times consul between 322 and 295 and three times triumphator. During one of his triumphs he is said to have held his little son in his arms (Val. Max. 5.7.1). Despite his advanced age, he served as a legate to his son, Q. Fabius Maximus Gurges, consul in 292, in his campaigns in Samnium.

  • Occupation and Acquisitive Prescription
    The European Journal of International Law Vol. 16 no.1 © EJIL 2005; all rights reserved ........................................................................................... Argument from Roman Law in Current International Law: Occupation and Acquisitive Prescription Randall Lesaffer* Abstract In his Private Law Sources and Analogies of International Law (1927), Hersch Lauterpacht claimed that many rules and concepts of international law stemmed from private law. He also showed that it was common practice in international adjudication and arbitration to look for inspiration there. The rules of private law that had found their way to international law were often common to the great municipal law systems. Many had their origins in Roman private law. This article examines whether and how the International Court of Justice has made use of Roman law rules and concepts. Roman law can be thought to fulfil its role as a source of inspiration for international law in three ways. First, it might have served as a direct historical source during the formative period of the modern law of nations. Second, it might have served as an indirect historical source because of its enduring impact on the great municipal law systems afterwards. Thirdly, it might still be considered ratio scripta, the expression of a timeless and universal law. For the purpose of examining which of these roles Roman law plays in the eyes of the ICJ, the analysis is restricted to two examples of private law analogies: occupation of terra nullius and acquisitive prescription. 1 Introduction The Law of Nations is but private law ‘writ large’. It is an application to political communities of those legal ideas which were originally applied to relations between individuals.1 * Professor of Legal History, Tilburg University; Professor of Law, Catholic University of Leuven.
