I have considered elsewhere the Tiburtina’s reception by its medieval audience.1 My observations in this paper, however, concern a new aspect of the Latin text - its early history. Much remains to be said about this topic, since, as has been rightly remarked: ‘the history of the family of texts that for convenience’s sake we call the Sibylla Tiburtina is still imperfectly known’.2 This is perhaps not surprising: with roots in late antiquity, the Tiburtina’s text evolved over a remarkably long period.

It explores the complex manner in which these central Italian cities both emulated and rejected the political and cultural hegemony of Rome through the ideological and performative reinvention of its cult icons. In the twelfth century the powerful urban center of Tivoli adopted Rome’s grandest annual public event, the nocturnal Assumption procession of August 14-15, and transformed it into a potent civic expression that incorporated all sectors of the social fabric. Tivoli’s cult of the Trittico del Salvatore and the Inchinata procession in which the icon of the enthroned Christ was carried at the feast of the Assumption and made to perform in symbolic liturgical ceremonies were both modeled on Roman, papal exemplars.

PREFACE Latin poet has been translated into verse, in this at more often than Horace. No country least, statesmen Perhaps the long list of poets, scholars, and who from generation to generation have tried their hands at the task may suggest the reflection that part of its fascination must consist in its insuperable difficulties. The humbler part of translating him into prose has been scantily attempted in England, though the example has been set us in France. By translation into prose I understand that which has been done for Virgil by for Conington and more lately by Mackail, Homer by Lang and his coadjutors, or again in part for Dante by Dr. Carlyle ^ translation which, while literal in the sense that is in its , every thought exactly represented _>--.^_^j4/<-^ ^ proper order, tone, and emphasis, has also just so much^^ of literary form that it can be read by a modern reader without distress, I and understood without perpetual reference to the and that Horace's original ; (to adapt own expression) if in the process the author be necessarily dismembered, the fragments can at least be recognized for those of a poet.

  • 043-Santa Maria in Aracoeli
    (043/41) Santa Maria in Aracoeli Our Lady at the Heavenly Altar Santa Maria in Aracoeli is the city church of Rome, a 13th century minor basilica and former convent church on the Campidoglio. The church is dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary of the Heavenly Altar ("Aracoeli"). The basilica is built on the lower of the two peaks of the Capitoline Hill, called the Arx, on the site of the Temple of Juno Moneta. It is sandwiched between the splendor of Michelangelo’s Renaissance masterpiece of urban architecture, the Campidoglio, and the awkward enormity of the Victor Emmanuel Monument.

    CAVES OF WONDER: THE LEGITIMACY OF THE GROTTO AS A SUBTERRANEAN LANDSCAPE ELEMENT by VANESSA D. BERNSTEIN (Under the Direction of Marianne Cramer) ABSTRACT This thesis explores the relevance of the grotto as an architectural type through time and will propose design possibilities for continuing this tradition in the twenty first century. Specifically, it investigates grotto works from the classical period through the twentieth century. Emphasis will be placed on the form, meaning, and purpose of the grotto as an underground chamber or passage. This thesis also considers the grotto as a platform for theoretical speculation on the implications of designing below the earth’s surface. The final component of the thesis is a design application comprised of three stories with corresponding collages that portray the design process for grotto inspired structures.

  • Stephen J. Shoemaker: the Apocalypse of Empire
    Plekos 21, 2019 531 Stephen J. Shoemaker: The Apocalypse of Empire. Imperial Eschatol- ogy in Late Antiquity and Early Islam. Philadelphia, PA: University of Pennsylvania Press 2018 (Divinations: Rereading Late Ancient Reli- gion). 272 p. $ 59.95. ISBN: 978-0-8122-5040-4. In his latest monograph, Stephen Shoemaker develops in greater detail the arguments he advanced in two recent publications, which investigated early Byzantine eschatology and its impact upon earliest Islam.1 The monograph also continues and supplements his controversial book “The Death of a Prophet”,2 which followed in the footsteps of the classical study “Hagarism” by emphasizing the importance of non-Muslim sources when investigating the origins of Islam.3 There he argued that earliest Islam was an eschatolog- ically minded faith community that awaited the imminent end of the world. In the “Apocalypse of Empire” he attempts to demonstrate more pointedly that nascent Islam originated in the late antique matrix of imperial eschatol- ogy. His argumentation is based on a synoptic treatment of Jewish, Christian, Zoroastrian, and Muslim literary sources, upon which he applies methods from Biblical criticism. The book is structured into six chapters, each of which advances a partial argument in support of the overall thesis. This re- view summarizes each argument and evaluates its soundness, coherence, and utility to the central claim “that earliest Islam was a movement driven by urgent eschatological belief that focused on the conquest – or liberation – of the biblical Holy Land” (1). In the introduction (1–9) Shoemaker points out that his thesis ultimately aims to discard the enduring disposition in contemporary scholarship to counterpose imperial expansionism and eschatological expectations.

  • THE MEDIEVAL LEGEND of the LAST ROMAN EMPEROR and ITS MESSIANIC ORIGIN by Paul J. Alexander Long Before Christianity Establishe
    THE MEDIEVAL LEGEND OF THE LAST ROMAN EMPEROR AND ITS MESSIANIC ORIGIN By Paul J. Alexander Long before Christianity established itself as the majority religion of the Roman Empire, Judaism and Christianity developed an interest in the Last Things. This interest is recorded in writings later recognized as canonical (Daniel, 2 Thessalonians ii, Matthew xxiv, Revelation), and in works that never or only sporadically obtained such recognition: apocryphal or pseudepigraphic writings such as Enoch, Ezra or Baruch. To these eschatological texts there was added in the seventh century another apocalypse that, without displacing the earlier material, rapidly made its influence felt in many areas of the medieval world, especially the Byzantine Empire. This was the Revelation of Pseudo-Methodius.1 The Latin version of this text and, to a lesser extent, its Greek model have long been known to scholars; but it was only recently recognized that the Greek text was itself the translation of a Syriac original composed, as I have argued elsewhere, in the latter half of the seventh century in or near Singara in (eastern) Mesopotamia. The complete Syriac text was discovered not long ago by Michael Kmosko in a sixteenth- century Vatican manuscript, Codex Syriacus 58.2 The seventh-century Greek translation of this Syriac com-position has been rendered not only into Latin but also into Church Slavonic. It thus made its impact on medieval literature, not only on the Latin Ludus de Antichriste and on the Russian Primary Chronicle, both of the twelfth century, but also on a considerable body of later prophetic literature in the West.

  • A History of Apocalyptic Thought
    History 382W/482. Apocalypse Now . and Then: A History of Apocalyptic Thought Thursdays, 2:00-4:40 Bausch & Lomb 106 Professor Laura A. Smoller office: Rush Rhees 369A office hours: T 10-12 and by appointment (via Zoom) email: [email protected] This seminar examines the history of beliefs about the end of the world in the western Judeo-Christian tradition. We will examine such topics as the birth of apocalyptic thought, the medieval development of various aspects of traditions about the End (such as the figure of Antichrist and millenarian traditions), apocalyptic influences on Europeans’ initial contact with and colonization of the New World, millennial movements of the last two centuries (such as the Millerites and the Mormons), and contemporary apocalyptic scenarios. A major theme of the course will be the flexibility of apocalyptic language, its ability to interpret various historical situations, and its power to move people to acceptance or action. Week 1. August 27. Introduction to the course and assignments; overview of the history of apocalyptic thought This week will introduce students to the course, its format, and the semester’s assignments. In addition, a lecture will offer an overview of the history of apocalyptic thought and movements, from biblical times through to the present day. The assigned reading (which, this week only, may be completed after class) offers a similar overview, also addressing the development of scholarship about apocalypticism (up to the year 1999, when Grafton’s article was originally published). Research: Finding a topic; beginning research. 2 Reading: Anthony Grafton, “From the Stacks: The Millennia-Old History of the Apocalypse,” The New Republic, July 15, 2014 (originally published November 8, 1999), http://www.newrepublic.com/article/118702/anthony-grafton-left-behind-and-apocalyptic- thinking.
