Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics
Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics The eighth-century revolution Version 1.0 December 2005 Ian Morris Stanford University Abstract: Through most of the 20th century classicists saw the 8th century BC as a period of major changes, which they characterized as “revolutionary,” but in the 1990s critics proposed more gradualist interpretations. In this paper I argue that while 30 years of fieldwork and new analyses inevitably require us to modify the framework established by Snodgrass in the 1970s (a profound social and economic depression in the Aegean c. 1100-800 BC; major population growth in the 8th century; social and cultural transformations that established the parameters of classical society), it nevertheless remains the most convincing interpretation of the evidence, and that the idea of an 8th-century revolution remains useful © Ian Morris. [email protected] 1 THE EIGHTH-CENTURY REVOLUTION Ian Morris Introduction In the eighth century BC the communities of central Aegean Greece (see figure 1) and their colonies overseas laid the foundations of the economic, social, and cultural framework that constrained and enabled Greek achievements for the next five hundred years. Rapid population growth promoted warfare, trade, and political centralization all around the Mediterranean. In most regions, the outcome was a concentration of power in the hands of kings, but Aegean Greeks created a new form of identity, the equal male citizen, living freely within a small polis. This vision of the good society was intensely contested throughout the late eighth century, but by the end of the archaic period it had defeated all rival models in the central Aegean, and was spreading through other Greek communities. -
The Naming of Moscows in the USA
Names, Vol. 37, No.1 (March 1989) The Naming of Moscows in the USA Irina Vasiliev Abstract Since 1800, at least forty-seven populated places in the United States have borne the name Moscow. The reasons for having been so named fall into four classes of placename type: commemorative, anticipatory, transfer, and mistake. The stories of these communities and their namings tell much about the growth of this country, the flow of in- formation within it, and each community's perception of itself. ***** The names Berlin, London; Moscow, and Paris evoke images of European sophistication and Old World charm. Here in the United States, these and other European and classical names have been applied as place names to communities that bear no resemblance to the original cities. We have all seen. them on our road maps: the Romes and the Petersburgs, the Viennas and Madrids. They have become commonplace to us. And there are many of each of them: not just one Rome, but thir- ty-five; not just one Cairo, but twenty-one. So the questions come up: Why were these communities named what they were? Who·were the people behind the naming? What were the reasons for the names they chose? It would be too large a task to examine all of the Old W orldnames that have been used across the United States in the last two hundred years. However, I have been able look at one name and determine the reasons for its widespread use. The name that I have chosen to look at is Moscow. -

Poverty, Charity and the Papacy in The
TRICLINIUM PAUPERUM: POVERTY, CHARITY AND THE PAPACY IN THE TIME OF GREGORY THE GREAT AN ABSTRACT SUBMITTED ON THE FIFTEENTH DAY OF MARCH, 2013 TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE SCHOOL OF LIBERAL ARTS OF TULANE UNIVERSITY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY BY ___________________________ Miles Doleac APPROVED: ________________________ Dennis P. Kehoe, Ph.D. Co-Director ________________________ F. Thomas Luongo, Ph.D. Co-Director ________________________ Thomas D. Frazel, Ph.D AN ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the role of Gregory I (r. 590-604 CE) in developing permanent ecclesiastical institutions under the authority of the Bishop of Rome to feed and serve the poor and the socio-political world in which he did so. Gregory’s work was part culmination of pre-existing practice, part innovation. I contend that Gregory transformed fading, ancient institutions and ideas—the Imperial annona, the monastic soup kitchen-hospice or xenodochium, Christianity’s “collection for the saints,” Christian caritas more generally and Greco-Roman euergetism—into something distinctly ecclesiastical, indeed “papal.” Although Gregory has long been closely associated with charity, few have attempted to unpack in any systematic way what Gregorian charity might have looked like in practical application and what impact it had on the Roman Church and the Roman people. I believe that we can see the contours of Gregory’s initiatives at work and, at least, the faint framework of an organized system of ecclesiastical charity that would emerge in clearer relief in the eighth and ninth centuries under Hadrian I (r. 772-795) and Leo III (r. -

Pinzgauer 716 Mk
PINZGAUER 716 MK Manufacturer: BAE Mobility & Protection Systems Product type: Auxiliary Vehicles Name: Patrol Vehicle Pinzgauer is a high mobility all-terrain 4x4 and 6x6 military utility vehicle manufactured in Guildford, Surrey, United Kingdom, by BAE Systems Land Systems. The Pinzgauer has been manufactured in the United Kingdom since the year 2000, originally by Automotive Technik Ltd (ATL). Before then the Pinzgauer was produced by Steyr- Daimler-Puch in Graz, Austria (hence the name, based on an Austrian breed of horse). ATL has since then been acquired by Stewart & Stevenson Services, Inc. in 2005, which in turn became a subsidiary of the aerospace and defence group Armor Holdings, Inc in May 2006. One year later Armor Holdings was itself acquired by BAE Systems. The original prototype was produced in 1965 and production began in 1971, as successor of the Haflinger. This first generation model was produced until 1985 by Steyr-Daimler-Puch. The Pinzgauer is one of the most capable all-terrain vehicles ever made. While it is not as fast as the HMMWV, it can carry more troops. Even the smaller 710M can carry 10 people, or two NATO pallets. Both the 4x4 and 6x6 models can tow 5,000 kg on road, and 1,500 or 1,800 kg, respectively off-road. It has a range of over 400 km on one tank of fuel or nearly 700 km with the optional 125-litre tank. The first generation Pinzgauer is available in both four-wheel drive (model 710) and six-wheel drive (model 712) versions. The Pinzgauer was also designed to be reliable and easy to fix, so it is shipped with an air-cooled dual-carbureted engine. -
