Talismans Against Tsunamis: Apollonius of Tyana and the Stelai of the Herakleion in Gades (VA 5.5) Manuel Álvarez Martí-Aguilar
Talismans against Tsunamis: Apollonius of Tyana and the stelai of the Herakleion in Gades (VA 5.5) Manuel Álvarez Martí-Aguilar HE HERAKLEION IN GADES was a religious centre famous throughout the ancient world.1 According to T the local accounts collected by Posidonius of Apamea and transmitted by Strabo (3.5.5–6), the origin of the sanctuary dated back to the time of the city’s foundation by colonists from Tyre, which is currently dated to the ninth century B.C.2 The sanctuary was dedicated to Melqart, the most important god of the metropolis and the new colony, who is identified in 1 Among the extensive bibliography, the most notable are A.

Theogony Translated by Hugh G
Hesiod: Theogony translated by Hugh G. Evelyn-White (1914) [Note: the letters ll refer to lines.) (ll. 1-25) From the Heliconian Muses let us begin to sing, who hold the great and holy mount of Helicon, and dance on soft feet about the deep-blue spring and the altar of the almighty son of Cronos, and, when they have washed their tender bodies in Permessus or in the Horse's Spring or Olmeius, make their fair, lovely dances upon highest Helicon and move with vigorous feet. Thence they arise and go abroad by night, veiled in thick mist, and utter their song with lovely voice, praising Zeus the aegis- holder and queenly Hera of Argos who walks on golden sandals and the daughter of Zeus the aegis-holder bright-eyed Athene, and Phoebus Apollo, and Artemis who delights in arrows, and Poseidon the earth-holder who shakes the earth, and reverend Themis and quick-glancing Aphrodite, and Hebe with the crown of gold, and fair Dione, Leto, Iapetus, and Cronos the crafty counsellor, Eos and great Helius and bright Selene, Earth too, and great Oceanus, and dark Night, and the holy race of all the other deathless ones that are for ever. And one day they taught Hesiod glorious song while he was shepherding his lambs under holy Helicon, and this word first the goddesses said to me -- the Muses of Olympus, daughters of Zeus who holds the aegis: (ll. 26-28) `Shepherds of the wilderness, wretched things of shame, mere bellies, we know how to speak many false things as though they were true; but we know, when we will, to utter true things.'

Julian, Plutarch, and the Dangers of Self-Praise Lea Niccolai
Julian, Plutarch, and the Dangers of Self-Praise Lea Niccolai T WAS IN THE INTEREST of Julian as emperor to present his own actions and decisions in the best possible light and to Iseek acceptance of his policies by providing his readers with an idealised image of himself. However, as a rhetorician aware that his audience included men of lofty rank and high literary standards, he also knew of the dangers of explicit self-praise. This paper aims to deepen the enquiry into the issue of Julian’s rhetorical (self)awareness by providing a closer look at his argu- mentative techniques and at the unusual context in which they were employed, given that his addressees were also his subjects. In particular, I will propose that Julian’s political writings show the influence of a model of an unexpected nature, that is, of a source of rhetorical inspiration not stemming from the environ- ment of rhetorical training: Plutarch’s De se ipsum citra invidiam laudando, a short moralistic treatise in which Plutarch, touching on the theme of self-praise with unparalleled sensitivity to the social and political consequences of the practice, offers sugges- tions on how to pursue self-promotion without exposing oneself to charges of arrogance and conceit. Praise (and self-praise) in late antiquity When in his Confessions Augustine praises God for bringing home to him the “misery” associated with court flattery,1 his statement does not represent a sudden disclosure, to unaware readers, of the moral dubiousness of panegyrics, for audiences 1 Conf. 6.6.9: quomodo egisti ut sentirem miseriam meam die illo quo, cum pararem recitare imperatori laudes, quibus plura mentirer et mentienti faveretur ab scientibus.

About Rivers and Mountains and Things Found in Them Pp
PSEUDO-PLUTARCH ABOUT RIVERS AND MOUNTAINS AND THINGS FOUND IN THEM Translated by Thomas M. Banchich With Sarah Brill, Emilyn Haremza, Dustin Hummel, and Ryan Post Canisius College Translated Texts, Number 4 Canisius College, Buffalo, New York 2010 i CONTENTS Acknowledgements p. ii Introduction pp. iii-v Pseudo-Plutarch, About Rivers and Mountains and Things Found in Them pp. 1-24 Indices pp. 24-32 Canisius College Translated Texts p. 33 i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The cover image is Jean-Antoine Gros’s 1801 painting “Sappho at Leucate,” now at the Musée Baron Gérard, Bayeux (http://www.all-art.org/neoclasscism/gros1.html, accessed June 10, 2010). Though Pseudo-Plutarch has men alone, not women (who choose the noose), fling themselves from precipices, the despair that supposedly drove Sappho to leap to her death from Mt. Leucate is a leitmotif of About Rivers and Mountains and Things Found in Them. Thanks are due to Andrew Banchich and Christopher Filkins for their assistance with a range of technical matters and to Ryan Post, who read and commented on drafts of the translation. ii INTRODUCTION In the spring of 2007, I suggested to four students—Sarah Brill, Emilyn Haremza, Dustin Hummel, and Ryan Post—the preparation of an English translation of ΠΕΡΙ ΠΟΤΑΜΩΝ ΚΑΙ ΟΡΩΝ ΕΠΩΝΥΜΙΑΣ ΚΑΙ ΤΩΝ ΕΝ ΑΥΤΟΙΣ ΕΥΡΙΣΚΟΜΕΝΩΝ, better known, when known at all, by its abbreviated Latin title, De fluviis, About Rivers. Their resultant rough version of a portion of About Rivers, in turn, provided the impetus for the translation presented here. However, while the students worked from Estéban Calderón Dorda’s text in the Corpus Plutarchi Moralium series, for reasons of copyright, I have employed what was the standard edition prior to Dorda’s, that of Rudolph Hercher.1 Only the ninth-century codex Palatinus gr.

Classical Myth As Thematic Image in King Lear and Antony and Cleopatra
CLASSICAL MYTH AS THEMATIC IMAGE IN KING LEAR AND ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA By Freda Elizabeth Ward Submitted as an Honors Paper in the Department of English THE WOMAN'S COLLEGE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA GREENSBORO, NORTH CAROLINA 1952 PHLFACE Tnis paper is primarily a study of myth as it appears in King Lear and Antony and Cleopatra. A minor consideration is given to thematic imagery, its appearance in two early plays, and to mythology in general as it appears in Shaxespeare's plays. The investigation of Antony and Cleopatra has been conducted partly on the suggestions of others, especially Dr. Marc Friedlaender, but tne study of King Lear is my own research. In the two other plays that are briefly considered for their imagery, 1 have relied on the information collected by others, adding some instances of my own. TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter Page I.

ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA 38 BIBLIOGRAPHY 58 Chapter I SHAKESPEARIAN IMAGERY An image is a linguistic device that presents by comparison or analogy with some other object a picture of an impression, emotion, or idea which comes to the poet. The image may be a word or group of words, and it may be a simile, a metaphor, or a word naving various levels of interpretation. The image is used to transmit more vividly to tne reader the idea of the poet. Because emotions and associations are aroused within the mind of the reader by the image, there is greater sensitivity to the idea of the poet.

Always Look on the Bright Side of Death Violence, Death, and Supernatural Transformation in Ovid’S Fasti
ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF DEATH VIOLENCE, DEATH, AND SUPERNATURAL TRANSFORMATION IN OVID’S FASTI A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY ANNA EVERETT BEEK IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY CHRISTOPHER NAPPA, ADVISER FEBRUARY, 2015 copyright 2015 Anna Everett Beek ABSTRACT Ovid’s Fasti, in its elaboration of mythic stories and the aetia of Roman religious practices, exhibits a marked correlation between violence and supernatural transformation: people who experience acts of intense violence such as rape, assault, and bodily mutilation are transformed by the experience into gods or other supernatural beings. In fact, within the Fasti, nearly all apotheoses have an episode of violence as a catalyst, and moreover nearly all violence results in transformation. Although rape (and some other forms of violence) in the Fasti has been examined extensively by other scholars, previous studies have focused on the perpetration of violence, while this dissertation examines the consequences of the event, how the victims fail to re-integrate to society and are removed by being ostracized, exiled, killed, transformed, or even apotheosed because a return to their former lives is impossible. Some of the prominent examples treated are Romulus, Anna Perenna, Ino, Callisto, and Lara. Special attention is paid to how this overarching pattern differentiates the Fasti from Ovid’s best known collection of mythic transformation stories, the Metamorphoses. The Metamorphoses does provide several episodes of apotheosis (such as those of Hercules, Aeneas, Romulus, and Julius Caesar), and those episodes share certain structural elements that recur in similar episodes in the Fasti: in many cases, the character in question is put in life-threatening danger, which is averted at the last minute by divine intervention and transformation into divinity.

Dionysius Areopagites: a Christian Mysticism?
Hieromonk Alexander (Golitzin) Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA DIONYSIUS AREOPAGITES: A CHRISTIAN MYSTICISM? I. Introduction: A Controversial Figure The mysterious author who wrote under the name of Dionysius the Are- opagite sometime around the turn of the sixth century has been the subject of theological and scholarly controversy for half a millenium.1 With a few re- cent exceptions, this controversy has been limited to the Christian West. It began properly with Martin Luther’s explicit dismissal of «Dionysius» (whom henceforth I shall refer to without the inverted commas) as plus platonizans quam christianizans, «more a Platonist than a Christian», and his warning to «stay away from that Dionysius, whoever he was!» I am myself expert in neither the Reformation generally nor Luther in particular, but I think it not inaccurate to say that he read Dionysius as perhaps the advocate par excel- lence of a theologia gloriae, which is to say, a theological perspective which effectively makes superfluous the Incarnation and atoning death of God the Word, and which does so because it assumes that the human mind of itself is capable, at least in potential, of achieving direct contact with the deity. The great doctor of the Reform saw this pernicious attitude, so in opposition to his own theologia crucis, as especially embodied in the little Dionysian trea- tise, The Mystical Theology, which he read as an example less of truly Chris- tian piety than of an appeal to the autonomous human intellect, hence: «Shun like the plague that Mystical Theology and other such works!» Ever since Luther, though here I should add that I am over-simplifying somewhat, Di- onysius has been by and large a «non-starter» for Protestant theology and devotion, while Protestant scholarship, in so far as it deals with him at all, remains generally — or even emphatically — unsympathetic.2 1 I will be referring to the Greek text of Dionysius in two editions, PG 3, with the column numbers, and, in parenthesis, the page and line numbers of the recent critical edition: Corpus Dionysiacum.

Paideia – i.e. Greek culture, comprising, amongst other things, language, literature, philo- sophy and medicine – was a constituent component of the social identity of the elite of the Roman empire: as a number of influential studies on the Second Sophistic have recently shown, leading members of society presented themselves as such by their pos- session and deployment of cultural capital, for example by performing oratory, writing philosophy or showcasing medical interventions.1 As the ‘common language’ of the men ruling the various parts of the empire, Greek culture became a characteristic of, and thus a de facto condition for, leading socio-political positions.
