In 181 BCE Eumenes II had the enormous altar “built on a hill above the city to commemorate the victory of Rome and her allies over Antiochos III the Great of Syria at the Battle of Magnesia (189 BCE) a victory that had given Eumenes much of the Seleucid Empire.

  • Making Is Thinking
    MAKING IS THINKING Poetic Pursuits in Architectural Design A research thesis by Cameron Walker In the MSc Architecture track at TU Delft Explore Lab 24 January 2018 Abstract I thank Peter Koorstra, my research tutor, for his kindness, when I needed This research is the culmination of philosophical and practical pursuits. It it most and the freedom to pursue my passions. is my attempt to tackle the often-held view that intellectual thought is of superior motive to making. This has been a philosophical condition since I would also like thank Robert Notrott and Hubert Van der Meel for the time of Plato, and evermore amplified by ‘thinkers’ such as Hannah their patience and understanding during the process. Arendt, who’s relatively recent work positioned that there are those that make, Animal Laborans, and those who think, Homo Faber—the former being he/she who know not what they make, and the latter being the judge of the thing made from material labour and practice.1 With such a distinction came the advancement of the intellect, and the reduction of the poet, and in this shift human beings were denied the fullness of their corporeity. Disassociated by philosophy, this research pursues that philosophy. I attempt to reposition making as very much part of the human being’s capacity for thinking, that the two were once indissociable, not just in architecture, but all thinking. That making is the crux of thinking’s origin and has the ability to be equally relevant to it’s present. Regarding the notion that ‘making is thinking’, I owe credit to Richard Sennett, who coined the term in his book The Craftsman.His term became my title, and founded the essay presented here in part I.

  • Eusebius' Exegesis Between Alexandria and Antioch
    EUSEBIUS’ EXEGESIS BETWEEN ALEXANDRIA AND ANTIOCH: BEING A SCHOLAR IN CAESAREA (A TEST CASE FROM QUESTIONS TO STEPHANOS I) Claudio Zamagni* Eusebius’ Exegesis between Alexandria and Antioch Since the last comprehensive monograph on Eusebius by David Wal- lace-Hadrill, the exegesis of the bishop of Caesarea has been under- stood through his auspicious definition: Eusebius as an exegete has to be placed, like his city, between Antioch and Alexandria, halfway between the literal and the allegorical exegesis.1 Within such a frame- work, Carmel Sant has tried to settle a developing line in Eusebius’ career as an exegete. At its outset, under the influence of Pamphi- lus and Origen, Eusebius’ exegesis leans mainly toward the allegorical reading. Later, in the period between his appointment to the epis- copacy of Caesarea and the Council of Nicaea, there is a tendency to balance in Eusebius, and allegorical exegesis is perfectly offset by the ‘literal’ exegesis. Finally, in his last phase, which includes the * I am grateful to Aaron Johnson, University of Chicago, for his helpful suggestions about this paper and for his precious revision of my English. A big part of this essay is based on my dissertation, Les Questions et réponses sur les évangiles d’Eusèbe de Césarée. Étude et édition du résumé grec (Lausanne – Paris, 2003). 1 D.S. Wallace-Hadrill, Eusebius of Caesarea (London: Mowbray, 1960), 96–97 (American edition: Westminster, MD: Canterbury Press, 1961). These convictions are driven by an analysis of Eusebius’ philological and exegetical works related to the Bible (see ibid., pp. 59–99). This comprehension of Eusebius’ exegesis has also been recently confirmed by the remarkable study on the Commentary on Isaiah by M.J.

  • Dalibor Vesely and the Primacy of Orality for Someone Fortunate
    Dalibor Vesely and The Primacy of Orality For someone fortunate enough to have been Dalibor Vesely’s student, it is probably impossible not to feel that some manner of propitious destiny was at work. Dalibor’s thought always appeared to his interlocutors with the force of certainty, as the clearest embodiment of an incandescent alétheia, in the ephemeral present of seminars. These spoken words have marked and often guided my academic and research work – with a force that no one simply reading his words out of a book can comprehend. I came from Mexico City to Colchester in 1973. I was 23 years old -- with a professional degree in "architectural engineering" (basically architectural training with a technical emphasis), little professional and life experience, and yet with sincere questions about the cultural significance of architecture. Only later was I to realize that my questions, back then ill-defined in terms of an appropriate "style" or "space concepts," strongly resonated with my teacher's long-standing concerns. In my case, these questions were paradoxically propitiated by a very defective architectural education. My schooling, unabashedly functionalistic despite some expressed social interests, revealed to me the inadequacies of any sort of architectural practice that would not be able to respond to the manifold and rich cultural heritage of the hybrid hispano-meso- american cultures that constitute modern Mexico. I already suspected that a more responsible practice, however, could not be a simple formal historicism: I was committed to modernity and this created perplexing problems; so I concluded that I had to study much more seriously before I could be an architect.

  • Alexandrian and Antiochene Exegesis and the Gospel of John
    ALEXANDRIAN AND ANTIOCHENE EXEGESIS AND THE GOSPEL OF JOHN ALEXANDRIAN AND ANTIOCHENE EXEGESIS AND THE GOSPEL OF JOHN By MIRIAM DECOCK, M.A., B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Miriam DeCock, December 2018 McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2018) Hamilton, Ontario (Religious Studies) TITLE: Alexandrian and Antiochene Exegesis and the Gospel of John AUTHOR: Miriam DeCock, B.A. (Briercrest College), M.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Peter Widdicombe NUMBER OF PAGES: viii, 327 ii Lay Abstract In this thesis I seek to provide an answer to the question of whether there were two distinct schools of scriptural interpretation in the two major centres of Alexandria and Antioch in the church of late antiquity. Traditionally scholars have characterized the Alexandrian exegesis as allegorical or spiritual and Antiochene as historical or literal. In recent decades, scholars have sought to do away with the distinction, tending to focus on the school members’ shared training in rhetoric and grammar. I argue that the traditional distinction ought to be maintained, but I draw attention to a critical distinction between the two schools, namely, the ways in which the exegetes of the two centres apply Scripture to their respective church settings. I demonstrate this by comparing the interpretations of five passages from the Gospel of John by two Alexandrian authors, Origen and Cyril, and two Antiochenes, John Chrysostom and Theodore of Mopsuestia. iii Abstract In this thesis I argue, against much recent scholarship on early Christian exegesis, that the traditional distinction between the two exegetical schools of Alexandria and Antioch, the allegorists and the literalists respectively, ought to be maintained.

  • The Growth of Greek Cities in the First Millennium BC
    Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics The growth of Greek cities in the first millennium BC Version 1.0 December 2005 Ian Morris Stanford University Abstract: In this paper I trace the growth of the largest Greek cities from perhaps 1,000- 2,000 people at the beginning of the first millennium BC to 400,000-500,000 at the millennium’s end. I examine two frameworks for understanding this growth: Roland Fletcher’s discussion of the interaction and communication limits to growth and Max Weber’s ideal types of cities’ economic functions. I argue that while political power was never the only engine of urban growth in classical antiquity, it was always the most important motor. The size of the largest Greek cities was a function of the population they controlled, mechanisms of tax and rent, and transportation technology. © Ian Morris. [email protected] 1 The growth of Greek cities in the first millennium BC Ian Morris (Stanford) 1. Introduction Greece in 1000 BC was a world of villages. Most people lived in communities of just a few dozen souls; even the largest settlement, Athens (Figure 1), was probably just 3,000 to 4,000 strong. But at the millennium’s end, the Greek east Mediterranean boasted some of the largest cities in pre-industrial history. Alexandria, Antioch, and Seleucia-on-the- Tigris probably each had 250,000-500,000 inhabitants. Figure 1. Sites in the Aegean mentioned in this chapter In this chapter I discuss the size of Greek cities and the implications of their growth. I identify three major transitions: 2 Figure 2.

    GREEKS IN PTOLEMAIC EGYPT: INTER-CULTURAL INFLUENCES IN NAUKRATIS by Simon W. Payne Submitted to the Faculty of The Archaeological Studies Program Department of Sociology and Archaeology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts University of Wisconsin-La Crosse 2012 Copyright © 2012 by Simon W. Payne All Rights Reserved ii GREEKS IN PTOLEMAIC EGYPT: INTER-CULTURAL INFLUENCES IN NAUKRATIS Simon W. Payne, B.A. University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, 2012 This study analyzes the interactions between Greek colonists and native Egyptians at the site of Naukratis through the material remains found there. Initial excavations by Petrie and Gardener are discussed as well as recent ones by Coulson and Leonard. This study aims to understand any change in material use of household goods by the Egyptians and Greeks living in the city by comparing them to a paradigm of typical Egyptian goods at the time. iii AKNOWLEDGEMENTS Thanks are due to the members of the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse faculty and student community who inspired me to become an archaeologist.
