Quorum multos ipse con- tuli, Parisinos dico plerosque et Valentianos et Bam- bergensem 787 et Turicensem 78 et, quos eximia biblio- thecae praefectorum comitas Francofurtum transmittendos curauit, Leidenses Vossianos q. 33 et q. 69. Reliquos uirorum doctorum beneuolentiae et humanitati debeo, qui auxilium suum large mihi praestiterunt. Hoiderus enim nunc quoque suam mihi operam non deesse voluit misitque et ex Leidensibus quaedam et Valentianos 396 et 389 et multa Caroliruhae nunc seruata a Scotis mo- naciiis scripta. Idem quae Noltius ex codicibus Bruxel- iensibus 1828 — 1830 et 5657 enotauerat meo usui con- cessit. Hagenus quoque ex codicibus Bernensibus multa mihi contulit, cf. c. 483, 672, al. Porro Martinus Hertz codicem Rehdigeranum S. L 6. 17 et Guilelmus Hartel Vindobonensem 2521 a me rogati inspexere Conradusque Bursian quae ex Parisinis 7533 et 8093 enotauerat mecum communicauit. J. Adert Geneuensis quas Duebneri amici collationes possidet perhumaniter ultro mihi obtulit e uti ; quibus paucis quibusdam potui, quae suis locis inuenies. Gasto Boissier denique c. 718 cum codice Parisino 13026 contulit et paucula quaedam praecipue ad c. 393 spectantia Lucianus Mueller misit. Quibus uiris omnibus gratias maximas laetissime testatas es§e uolo. IV PRAEFATIO Sed et codicem Isidori Beilouacensem statim hic memorandum puto, qui est fons carminum 690—715 hodie deperdilus. cf. praef. fasc. I. p. XXXIII sq. Ex sacerdotis cuiusdam Bellouacensis codici epistola , quae Parisino 11677 saeculi XVIII initio scripto, uarias Isi- dori codicum et quidem fol. 94 — 141 Etymologiarum S' Isidori Hyspolensis episcopi ex hibliotheca Capiiuli ecclesiae cathedralis S^ Silvj Bellouacensis circiter an- num 1715 enotatas lectiones continenti addita est, hunc codicem Isidori nono decimoue saeculo scriptum esse comperi. Quem periisse dolendum est, cum multorum carminum sine dubio antiquorum adeoque ad bona anti- quitatis tempora referendorum (equidem sane non uideo cur poetarum nomina his carminibus inscripta in su- spicionem uocanda sint) unicus fons extiterit. Dissipata est bibliotheca Beiiouacensis ex magna parte iam pro- ximo ante ciuiles Gallorum turbas saeculo hodieque unum tantum ecclesia codicem possidet. Magnus eorum numerus el partim quidem per ipsum cathedralis illius capitulum in bibliothecam Parisinam peruenit, quos Leo- poldus Delisle codicum bibliothecae praefectus officiose mihi indicauit^): sed nullus eorum Isidorum continet. Fuit autem Bellouaci codex Isidori anno 1664, id quod ex catalogo eo anno exarato constat, quem idem mihi Delislius monslrauit. Quare cum multos alios Belloua- censes codices hodie in uicinorum hominum manibus esse ille indicasset, ne quid intemptatum relinquerem, ipse m. Julio a. 1869 Bellouacum profectus comiterque a uiris eruditis exceptus, sed desiderii mei nequaquam compos factus sum, Qua occasione oblata sacerdotem Barraud laudibus iustis libenler prosequor, qui praeter ceteros officiose quamquam frustra rei meae operam dedit.

PKAEFATIO V quarum in illis regionibus est omnium oculis proposuit, quae codicum quoque inde a saeculo VII scriptorum olim ecclesiae catliedralis nunc domini Le Caron de Trous- sures sat magnum numerum exhihuit; nam ibi quoque quod optaui nequidquam quaesiui. Multum et difficultatis et dubilationis habere codi- cum ordinem ad temporum quibus scripti sunt rationem redigendum constat; id quod eo magis intellexi, quod diuersis iudiciis nitendum mihi erat: modo enim oculi raei, modo bibliothecarum catalogi, modo quae uiri docti hic illic dixere iudicii ansam praebuerunt. Sed eius difficultatis euitandae uiam uidi nuilam, neque uero multum (si tamen aliquatenus) a recto me aberrasse spero. Omnia carmina omnesque carminum fontes me nosse non audeo affirmare; auxilium uirorum doctorum in re difficillima (nec ut puto inutili) olim imploraui^); gaudebo eliam si, quae forte non obtulerunt, postea succrescent; diligentiae uero laudem si qua est mihi detrectatum iri non credo. In re critica factitanda et ipse quantum potui praestare studui — nec tamen in eis praesertim quae libris recentioribus debemus ueras lectiones pro interpolatis ubique indagari posse arbitror — et insigne auxilium eo nactus sum quod Francis- cus Buecheler u. cl. singulas schedas inspexit coniec- turasque suas plurimas, inter quas esse emendationes palmares multas apparebit, mecum communicauit: cui non possum quin debitas publice quoque gratias agam. Huius praefationis duplex est consilium, primum ut de fontibus carminum quae scitu digna uisa sunt sed quae in ipsorum adnotatione non adscripsi, me- morem, deinde ut carminum quae ex anthologia expunxi rationem redderem. Sunt sane, fateor, a me quoque ^dmissa, quae ab ajitiquitate aliena putauerim, in qui- hus cum adfirmare et negare pariter in promptu sit, traditam rationem sequi maluerim. Quaenam ea sint, <locebunt indices. 2) cf. praef. I p. VIII.

The Development of Early Imperial Dress from the Tetrarchs to the Herakleian Dynasty General Introduction The emperor, as head of state, was the most important and powerful individual in the land; his official portraits and to a lesser extent those of the empress were depicted throughout the realm. His image occurred most frequently on small items issued by government officials such as coins, market weights, seals, imperial standards, medallions displayed beside new consuls, and even on the inkwells of public officials. As a sign of their loyalty, his portrait sometimes appeared on the patches sown on his supporters’ garments, embossed on their shields and armour or even embellishing their jewelry. Among more expensive forms of art, the emperor’s portrait appeared in illuminated manuscripts, mosaics, and wall paintings such as murals and donor portraits. Several types of statues bore his likeness, including those worshiped as part of the imperial cult, examples erected by public 1 officials, and individual or family groupings placed in buildings, gardens and even harbours at the emperor’s personal expense.

    r ( - ( r ~s IMPERIAL VIRTUES IN SUETONIUS' CAESARES ,. K. R. BRADLEY ~··. The Johns Hopkins University An argument has been made that Suetonius' use of virtue-terms reflects criticism of the emperor Hadrian; this article argues the reverse; it suggests instead that the use of virtue-terms should be attributed to the development in the ideology of the principate of imperial virtues, on which Sue toni us could draw as one means of assessing his biographi­ cal subjects. A noticeable feature of Suetonius' Caesares is the frequent use and mustration of virtue-terms to demonstrate aspects of ( character. This is not altogether surprising given that virtue­ } terms were deeply connected with the traditionally moralistic nature of Roman historiography and that, in an increasingly ( political sense, even under the Republic associations had begun to develop between powerful individuals and certain isolated virtues: Sulla and felicitas, Caesar and clementia provide two I well known instances of this. It is worthwhile, however, to ( examine some of these usages in Suetoniu-s, not least because ) the possibility of con temporary allusiveness is thereby intra­ duced; any historical work is naturally subject to the influence of developments or tastes prevalent at the time of writing, and when Hadrianic allusions have been detected in Tacitus' Annales m (1) the same might be anticipated for the Caesares. An ap­ ·.; proach of this kind must of necessity be subjective especially ,j. since the literary tradition for Hadrian is not above reproach. (2) Nonetheless, the minimal appearance in the Caesares of words which served as predominant Hadrianic coin legends (annona, felicitas, liberalitas, providentia, clementia, concordia, iustitia, pietas, sal us A ugusti, securitas,) and their association in the main with malipn·ncipes has formed part of an argument that Suetonius and Hadrian felt a mutual, deep antipathy; (1) R.

COINS AND MESSAGES: AUDIENCE TARGETING ON COINS OF DIFFERENT DENOMINATIONS?* By OLIVIER HEKSTER Some Romans were aware of the images and legends on their coins. Passages from various literary texts make this clear. The examples are well known. The Gospel of Matthew, for instance, tells us how: “They brought him a denarius, and he said to them, ‘whose portrait is this? and whose inscription?’ and they said to him: ‘Caesar’s’. Then he said to them, ‘Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s’.”1 Sceptics could still argue that this passage actually shows a lack of awareness of images on coins from the part of the public, as the emperor’s portrait and inscription needed pointing out. Arrian, however, in a famous passage, goes further and explicitly connects value judgements on individual emperors with their particular coins. He takes it entirely for granted that people were aware of which emperor was depicted on which coin: “The stamps with which a man comes imprinted on his disposition [are] like the stamps we look for on coins too: if we find them we accept their value, if we don’t, we chuck them out. ‘Whose stamp does this serterce bear? Trajan’s? Take it. Nero’s? Chuck it out, it will not pass, it is rotten.’” (Arrian, Discourses of Epictetus 4.5.15-17) Even if people did not ‘chuck out’ the coins of ‘evil emperors’ (and they probably did not), the emphasis on awareness of the individuals depicted on coins is striking.

University of Sussex Wendy Watson: Candidate for Doctor of Philosophy (DPhil) The Art of Personification in Late Antique Silver: Third to Sixth Century AD Summary This thesis examines the extent to which, in an artistic context, personifications, and allegorical figures and scenes, were embedded in the culture of Late Antiquity from AD 300 to 600. ‘Personification’ can be read both as a noun and a verb, and I explore it in both senses. My examination is carried out through a series of case studies of figurative imagery on contemporary silver plate.

    The Belly and the Limbs: Reconsidering the Idea of a Plebeian “State Within the State” in the Early Roman Republic DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Gregory George Pellam, Jr. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Professor Nathan Rosenstein, Advisor Professor Greg Anderson Professor Kristina Sessa Copyright by Gregory George Pellam, Jr. 2012 Abstract This dissertation offers a reevaluation of a long-standing model for the early history of the Roman Republic. Modern scholars have generally believed that the Roman plebs in the first two centuries of the Republic (roughly the fifth and fourth centuries B.C.) was essentially a revolutionary political organization, dedicated to increasing the rights and opportunities of plebeians and overthrowing the patrician monopoly over political, social, religious, and economic power. According to this model, a series of institutions which were dominated by patrician authority (the consulship, the senate, the centuriate assembly) represented the state, and the plebeian organization created its own institutions to mirror these (the tribunes and aediles of the plebs, and a plebeian tribal assembly). Further, the plebs established for itself an administrative center for its political activities on the Aventine hill. They even created their own cult center in the temple of Ceres, Liber, and Libera, to mirror the “state” cult of Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva on the Capitoline. This plebeian organization is often referred to in modern scholarship as a “state within the state”. It is shown, however, that the evidence for the plebeian “state within the state” does not stand careful scrutiny.
