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.

  • The Biblical Concept of Beauty
    THE BIBLICAL CONCEPT OF BEAUTY HERBERT RAND In many instances the Bible ascribes some measure of physical beauty to a personality in a narrative. It will be seen that the purpose is not merely to round out depiction of a character or description of appearance, but also to introduce a factor that will move the narrative along to its next stage. – יפת ות אר וי פת מראה] It is stated that Rachel is shapely and beautiful yefat to'ar v'yafat-mareh ] (Gen. 29:17) and then follows the statement of Jacob's great love for her. Rachel's son Joseph is described as well-built and handsome. The Bible uses the same four adjectives, inflected for gender, to describe him: yefe to'ar v'yefe mareh (Gen. 39:6), and this is a prelude to the desire of Potiphar’s wife and her attempt to seduce him. When he rebuffed her, she cried "rape" and saw him off to prison. This in turn led to Joseph being called upon to interpret the dreams of Pharaoh of good [again yefot mareh ] cows and ears of grain, and of poor ones, and being appointed governor over Egypt (Gen. 41:1-14). Below are some of the references to beauty and physical endowment that may recall to the reader how the pleasing appearance of the personality led to subsequent events. 1. Sarai: Abram tells her '. what a beautiful woman you are ' and the Egyptians find her to be very beautiful (Gen. 12:12, 14). 2. Rebekah: because she is beautiful (Gen. 26:7).

This journal provides a forum for Mississippi University for Women students to present their original research on the Middle Ages and Renaissance and is sponsored by the Medieval and Renaissance Studies Minor in the Department of History, Political Science, and Geography. The articles in this journal arise from the Medieval and Renaissance Studies Research Symposium that took place on April 7, 2017 on the campus of The W. This issue includes five articles, related to both history and literature, examining life, death, power, and love in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. First, Tera Pate, who just graduated with a B.A. in English discusses the use of the word “crown” in Shakespeare’s Richard III and I Henry IV. Second, Lauren Harmon, a rising sophomore in History, compares the power of two queens (Eleanor of Aquitaine and Matilda of Scotland) using letters to and from powerful religious men. Third, Morrigan Hollis, a rising junior in English and History, argues that despite Guinevere’s bad reputation in modern culture, her role in Le Morte d’Arthur showed power and agency.

Mr. Theodore Irving, in his valuable history of the "Conquest of Florida, " speaking of the astonishing achievements of the Spanish Cavaliers, in the dawn of the sixteenth century says " Of all the enterprises undertaken in this spirit of daring adventure, none has surpassed, for hardihood and variety of incident, that of the renowned Hernando de Soto, and his band of cavaliers. It was poetry put in ac- tion. It was the knight-errantry of the old world carried into the depths of the American wilderness. Indeed the personal adventures, the feats of individual prowess, the picturesque description of steel-clad cavaliers, with lance and helm and prancing steed, glittering through the wildernesses of Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and the prairies of the Far West, would seem to us mere fictions of ro- mance, did they not come to us recorded in matter of fact narratives of contemporaries, and corroborated by minute and daily memoranda of eye-witnesses." These are the wild and wondrous adventures which I wish here to record.
