  • Miracles in Greco-Roman Antiquity: a Sourcebook/Wendy Cotter
    MIRACLES IN GRECO-ROMAN ANTIQUITY Miracles in Greco-Roman Antiquity is a sourcebook which presents a concise selection of key miracle stories from the Greco- Roman world, together with contextualizing texts from ancient authors as well as footnotes and commentary by the author herself. The sourcebook is organized into four parts that deal with the main miracle story types and magic: Gods and Heroes who Heal and Raise the Dead, Exorcists and Exorcisms, Gods and Heroes who Control Nature, and Magic and Miracle. Two appendixes add richness to the contextualization of the collection: Diseases and Doctors features ancient authors’ medical diagnoses, prognoses and treatments for the most common diseases cured in healing miracles; Jesus, Torah and Miracles selects pertinent texts from the Old Testament and Mishnah necessary for the understanding of certain Jesus miracles. This collection of texts not only provides evidence of the types of miracle stories most popular in the Greco-Roman world, but even more importantly assists in their interpretation. The contextualizing texts enable the student to reconstruct a set of meanings available to the ordinary Greco-Roman, and to study and compare the forms of miracle narrative across the whole spectrum of antique culture.

INTRODUCTION: QUESTIONS OF CATEGORIES* The title of this paper quotes a phrase from Jean-Pierre Vernant’s discussion of the Gorgon that focuses on the ways in which representations of the gorgoneion (a Gorgon mask) were depicted as “disrupting the features that make up a human face,” producing “an effect of disconcerting strangeness that expresses a form of the monstrous that oscillates between two extremes: the horror of the terrifying and the hilarity of the grotesque” (1991.113).1 This portrayal ushers the reader into a murky world of concepts of alterity: as Vernant puts it, the Gorgon’s mask “expresses and maintains the radical otherness, the alterity of the world of the dead, which no living person may approach” (1991.121), and his analysis reveals this otherness as comprising a network of ideas that associate not only the realm of the dead, but also night, some particular qualities of the female, and monstrosity.

  • 6 Ways to Give Oaths Extra Sanctity I.C
    6 Ways to give oaths extra sanctity I.C. Torrance There were various ways in which the solemnity of an oath could be increased. The most common include the invocation of one or more particularly appropri- ate deities to witness the oath, the swearing of an oath in a location of religious significance (such as in a temple, at an altar, or in front of a god’s statue), and the performance of an oath-sacrifice. The pouring of libations must also have accom- panied oaths frequently since, although there are, relatively speaking, not a large number of references to libations being added to oaths in our sources, one of the commonest Greek words for a sworn treaty or alliance, spondai, also means “libations”.1 Interstate treaties were often inscribed on stone and displayed in the vicinity of an important temple, as Andrew Bayliss has discussed.2 Gestures could also add solemnity to an oath. Raising the hands or a sceptre to heaven, striking the ground, clasping hands and drawing blood all occur in our texts. Rarely an unusual ritual is added as a representation of the oath-curse on the would-be perjurer, such as the burning of wax images or the sinking of lumps of iron in the sea. These function as engineered reminders of the punishments for oath-breaking, and in some cases consequences for perjury are spelled out in human terms. This too was a way of adding solemnity to an oath, and the issue will be touched on briefly here but will be discussed in more detail in §12.2.

It is available to view only. This item is subject to copyright. LILITH – A MYTHOLOGICAL STUDY * TRACEY LOUISE SMITH * THESIS ACCOMPANYING CHRYSALIS A Thesis submitted to the University of Bedfordshire, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master Of Arts by Research in Creative Writing * Submitted December 2008 1 Abstract Lilith – A Mythological Study is the accompanying thesis to my creative piece, Chrysalis, a novel which centres on the protagonist Melissa and her possession by the demoness Lilith. My thesis is an exploration of Lilith throughout mythology, from her early incarnations in Mesopotamia, through Christian texts, to Jewish folktales, looking at how the various elements of her legend, namely as a succubus, demoness and child killer, have evolved. Here I also explore a number of other myths which portray demonised female figures, and compare them to Lilith, posing the question: is Lilith such an archetypal character that she sparks similar myths across the ancient world, or is it merely that strong women were easy to demonise in male-dominated religions? In order to answer this, I go on to study how Lilith’s femininity has contributed to her myth, and how women in general have been demonised by patriarchal and religious societies. Through this I also touch upon the subject of feminist representation by discussing the concepts of the ‘other’ and abjection, and how Lilith has become an icon for modern feminist movements.

    ARISTOPHANES: FROGS 1ST EDITION PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Judith Affleck | 9780521172578 | | | | | Aristophanes: Frogs 1st edition PDF Book During the parabasis Aristophanes presents advice to give the rights of citizens back to people who had participated in the oligarchic revolution in BC, arguing they were misled by Phrynichus' 'tricks' literally 'wrestlings'. Dionysus and Greek Fantasies of Salvation. Though Euripides first blasts Alcibiades, Aeschylus responds with the advice to bring him back, bringing the subtle allusions to a clearly stated head and concluding Aristophanes' point. When he arrives at the shore, Dionysus meets up with Xanthias, who teases him by claiming to see the frightening monster Empusa. He highlights the play's unique portrayal of the figure of Dionysus, the Eleusinian mystery cult, and the question of life after death. Aristophanes is widely credited with having elevated the classical art of comedy to the level of legitimacy and recognition that only tragedy had hitherto achieved, and producing some of the most intriguing works of literature to survive from classical Greece in the process. We are very thorough and honest in reviewing and rating the items we sell. Aeschylus responds with the river Spercheios , Death, and two crashed chariots and two dead charioteers. Frightened, Dionysus trades clothes with Xanthias. This is the point of the first choral interlude parodos , sung by the eponymous chorus of frogs the only scene in which frogs feature in the play. Segal suggests that this deviation gave a tone of seriousness to the play. According to Kenneth Dover, the structure of The Frogs is as follows: In the first section Dionysus' has the goal of gaining admission to Pluto 's palace, and he does so by line A contest is held with Dionysus as judge.

    A WWF COMMISSIONED REPORT PREPARED BY POSEIDON AQUATIC RESOURCE MANAGEMENT LTD REPORT AUGUST 2011 Sustainability A Blueprint for moving toward sustainable tropical © GUSTAVO YBARRA© GUSTAVO / WWF-CANON shrimp trawl fisheries - Foreword - Whilst there is widespread agreement that bottom trawling for tropical shrimp presents an urgent conservation problem, the complexity of these fisheries, both environmental and socio/economic, has often thwarted effective conservation efforts. The purpose of this WWF–commissioned report is to address this complexity by providing a set of management guidelines that, if adopted, will serve as the foundational measures from which lasting sustainability can later be achieved. The management guidelines presented here should not therefore be viewed as a definitive WWF vision of what should constitute sustainability in tropical shrimp trawl fisheries, nor should full adoption of these guidelines necessarily mean a fishery will be sustainable. For this, there are many areas that need to be fully addressed, such as issues of habitat protection, habitat restoration and strengthening protection to endangered, threatened and protected species, for example. However, it is WWF’s hope that these generic guidelines, when regionally applied, will provide an important pathway to help tropical shrimp trawl fisheries adopt better management practices that will eventually allow them to operate in a fully sustainable manner.

  • Gods on the Comic Stage Rachel Frances Dowe Bachelor of Arts (Honours)
    Gods on the Comic Stage Rachel Frances Dowe Bachelor of Arts (Honours) A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2018 School of Historical and Philosophical Inquiry ABSTRACT The gods of Aristophanes share many of the vices of mortals, while his comedies make fun of their worship. It is striking that the old comic poets could depict the gods in such a sacrilegious matter, because the Athenians, outside of the theatre of Dionysus, certainly prosecuted individuals who engaged in such sacrilege or otherwise promoted unconventional religious beliefs. This thesis carefully studies Aristophanes’ depiction of the gods as well as how it confirms or distorts conventional religious beliefs. While Bowie (1993) is a seminal study of the rituals that served as a background to old comedy, only a small amount of work has been done on this genre’s depiction of gods and humanity’s relationship with them. This thesis argues that the festival license that the old comic poets enjoyed extended to the divine realm. Their sacrilegious treatment of gods was thus part of the aischrologia that was usually directed at prominent citizens. While good work has certainly been done on festival license, the sacrilegious dimension of it has hardly been explored. This thesis also shows how, in depicting the gods, Aristophanes relied on the conventional religious beliefs of theatregoers. The result was, paradoxically, that old comedy consistently confirmed such popular beliefs rather than encouraging their abandonment. The impiety present on the comic stage was also moderated by the genre’s implicit acknowledgement of divine power.

  • Heracles and Heroic Disaster by Katherine Elizabeth Lu
    Heracles and Heroic Disaster by Katherine Elizabeth Lu A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Studies) in the University of Michigan 2013 Doctoral Committee: Professor Ruth Scodel, Chair Professor Sharon Herbert Professor Richard Janko Associate Professor Francesca Schironi © Katherine Elizabeth Lu 2013 For my parents, Calvin and Florence Lu, who first taught me the importance of the text ii Acknowledgements A project such as this relies on the efforts of many people. First and foremost, I thank my advisor, Ruth Scodel. Her wisdom and willingness to push the implications of my ideas have been invaluable. The insightful and incisive criticism she has offered has, for many years now, sharpened my thinking and writing. I owe a large debt of gratitude to Richard Janko. His meticulous reading and comments have greatly improved this study, from its origins to its completion. His love for the Greek world and excellent scholarship have inspired me throughout my graduate training. I thank Francesca Schironi, who asked crucial questions of my work and then pointed me in the right directions. And I am grateful to Sharon Herbert. Her good humor and expertise in Greek vase painting supported this work, each in its own way. Arthur Verhoogt provided wise and practical counsel at each stage in my graduate education; without him, I fear for the choices I would have made. Michelle Biggs made every day at the University of Michigan a little smoother. My years spent at Michigan were made pleasurable by the company of many fine classicists, historians, archaeologists: Evelyn Adkins, Emily Bembeneck, Matt Cohn, Alex Conison, Anne Reidmiller Cooper, Jenn Finn, Carolyn Gersh, Joe Groves, Tom Landvatter, Karen Laurence, Charlotte Maxwell-Jones, Matt Newman, and Jared Secord.
