    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-46011-8 — Seneca: Selected Letters Seneca , Edited with Introduction and Notes by Catharine Edwards Excerpt More Information INTRODUCTION 1 SENECA’S LIFE AND WORKS Born at Corduba (modern Córdoba in southern Spain) between 4 bce and 1 ce into a wealthy equestrian family, Seneca the Younger (hereafter S) was the second son of Seneca the Elder, an acclaimed rhetorician who wrote treatises on declamation, and of Helvia (addressee of Ad Heluiam matrem, written during S’s exile). Though little is known of his life before 41 ce, he studied rhetoric at Rome and claims to have been attracted to philosophy at an early age, citing as his teachers the Stoic Attalus, as well as Sotion and Papirius Fabianus. After a period in Egypt, S returned to Rome in 31 ce, where some time later he secured election to the quaestorship (thus entering the senate), and established a reputation as a brilliant orator. After eight years in exile on the island of Corsica for alleged involvement in the adultery of Gaius’ sister Livilla (Dio 60.8), he was recalled to Rome on the initiative of Claudius’ new wife Agrippina to serve as tutor to her 12-year-old son, the future emperor Nero.1 S was closely associated with Nero for more than a decade, going on to serve, when Nero succeeded Claudius in 54 ce, as his adviser and speech- writer. S’s treatise De clementia, addressed to the new emperor, dates from soon after his accession and offers the young emperor a philosophically informed model of the proper relationship between ruler and subjects.2 A powerful igure at the imperial court, S held the suffect consulship in 56 ce.

  • Apocalypses and the Sage. Different Endings of the World in Seneca
    ARTÍCULOS Gerión. Revista de Historia Antigua ISSN: 0213-0181 http://dx.doi.org/10.5209/GERI.63869 Apocalypses and the Sage. Different Endings of the World in Seneca Francesca Romana Berno1 Recibido: 9 de abril 2018 / Aceptado: 29 de octubre de 2018 Abstract. This paper deals with apocalypse, intended as a revelation or prediction related to the end of the world, in Seneca’s prose work. The descriptions and readings of this event appear to be quite different from each other. My analysis will follow two main directions. Firstly, I will show the human side of the question, focussing on the condition of the sage facing the universal ruin in the context of the macroscopic narrative structure of most passages, and on the differences between the Epicurean and the Stoic view on this point. Secondly, I will turn to the descriptions of the end of the world which we can find in the Naturales Quaestiones. I will argue that Seneca’s choice of flood or conflagration as representations for the apocalypse are not haphazard, but may be motivated by a subtle political narrative, and thus linked to the Stoic struggle for taking part in the governing of the state. In particular, the end of book three represents a flood which probably alludes toTiber’s floods. Keywords: Seneca; Final flood;ekpyrosis ; End of the world; Fire of Rome; Tiber’s flood.

  • Fecunditas, Sterilitas, and the Politics of Reproduction at Rome Angela Grace
    FECUNDITAS, STERILITAS, AND THE POLITICS OF REPRODUCTION AT ROME ANGELA GRACE HUG A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN HISTORY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO DECEMBER 2014 © ANGELA GRACE HUG, 2014 Abstract This dissertation is a cultural history of the role of human fertility – fecunditas – in Ancient Roman society c. 200 B.C. – A.D. 250. I ask how the Romans chose to understand human fertility, how they sought to preserve and encourage it, and how the absence of fertility affected their marriages, their families and their political careers. It is an investigation of the place of fertility in the Roman cultural consciousness. Using a wide range of sources – literary, epigraphic, papyrological, juridical, and numismatic – I argue that the Romans conceptualized fecunditas (fertility) not just as a generic female quality, but as one of the cardinal virtues that all married women were expected to embody. A woman’s fecunditas could be evaluated and judged according to how many children she bore, how often she became pregnant, and how many of her children survived into adulthood. Although fecunditas was constructed as a female responsibility, élite Roman men were able to take advantage of having a fertile wife. Official benefits, such as those accrued by law under the ius trium liberorum, the rights of three children, brought one level of honour. An élite man could also exploit the fecunditas of his wife to increase his own social capital. In return, women of proven fertility were thought to deserve conjugal loyalty from their husbands and ought not to be divorced.

  • Masters of Eloquence and Masters of Empire: Quintilian in Context
    Masters of Eloquence and Masters of Empire: Quintilian in Context A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Classics of the College of Arts and Sciences by Kyle Helms A.A. Santa Fe Community College B.A. University of Florida M.A. University of Iowa M.A. University of Cincinnati April 2016 Committee Chair: Daniel Marković, Ph.D. Abstract This dissertation focuses on the curious situation of the Latin rhetor Marcus Fabius Quintilianus (b. ca. 35 CE). In the early 70s CE, Quintilian received an annual salarium of 100,000 HS from the emperor Vespasian. As a result, Quintilian is commonly cited in classical scholarship as Rome’s “first public professor of rhetoric” or “first state professor.” But while this feature of Quintilian’s biography is often repeated, it is seldom explained. Essentially, previous scholarship has offered two interpretations of Quintilian’s situation, either creating a genealogy for public higher education in the first century CE, or emphasizing imperial euergetism and liberalitas. While the latter approach is on the right track, it does not explain why a Latin rhetor in particular should have been the object of such benevolence, and nearly all scholarship on the topic emphasizes the novelty of Quintilian’s situation, but without sustained inquiry into historical precedents. This study reconsiders this problem by examining the relationship between Latin rhetorical education and Roman political power diachronically, beginning with the advent of Latin rhetors in the 90s BCE and concluding with Quintilian himself.

  • Éloquence Déclamatoire Et Éloquence Philosophique Au Ier Siècle Ap
    Ítaca. Quaderns Catalans de Cultura Clàssica DOI: 10.2436/20.2501.01.38 Societat Catalana d’Estudis Clàssics Núm. 28-29 (2012-2013), p. 21-43 Intempestiua philosophia? Éloquence déclamatoire et éloquence philosophique au Ier siècle ap. J.-C Charles Guérin Université Paul Valéry - Montpellier III Institut universitaire de France ABSTRACT Whereas Cicero and Seneca the younger always argued in favor of a rigid stylistic distinction between philosophy and oratory, this conceptual barrier does not seem to have been as widely accepted as they would both have wanted: besides their philosophical virtues, philosophers could also be praised for qualities of expression that Cicero or Seneca would have thought entirely irrelevant to the philosophical sermones or disputationes. As Pliny’s letters would later show, philosophical and oratorical styles could be min- gled, or could at least influence each other. This article analyzes these two tendencies —rejection or influence— by taking into account the point of view of the declamatory tradition from the 1st century CE onward and by fo- cusing on Seneca the Elder’s approach to the problem. Using Seneca’s com- mentaries on Albucius Silus and Papirius Fabianus’ declamations, it tries to show that while he boldly rejected any kind of philosophical influence, Sen- eca regarded the declamatory way of speaking as the perfect path to achieve an effective philosophical style. The scholastici thus tried to assert their prac- tice as a training equally fit for any genre of prose expression.

  • Tacitus, Germanicus and the Kings of Egypt. (Tac
    TACITUS, GERMANICUS AND THE KINGS OF EGYPT. (TAC. ANN. 2.59-61)* ‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!’ Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.1 In Book Two of Tacitus’ Annals, Germanicus visits Alexandria and then tours the Egyptian chora. On leaving Alexandria he journeys first to Canopus and a nearby mouth of the Nile, then to the ruins of ancient Thebes. Various other sites arrest his attention: the colossus of Memnon; the pyramids west of Memphis; Lake Moeris; and finally the deeps in the Nile near Syene and Elephantine. The episode is rather odd. Tacitus reports several of Germanicus’ other touristic diversions, but this is by far the most detailed account of the young prince’s sight-seeing activities. Yet the narrative of what Germanicus saw outside of Alexandria has no obvious implications for the general flow of events in Book Two. One could accuse Tacitus of having slipped into the mindless compilation of facts, but there is clear selectivity and artistic arrangement in the account: Tacitus chooses to mention only a few of the sites Germanicus visited; he gives special emphasis to Thebes; and he presents the stops after Thebes out of geographical order.2 This is more than an antiquarian account of a journey. The * A version of this paper was read in May 2008 at the Annual General Meeting of the Classical Association of Canada in Montréal. I thank all those present on that occasion who offered constructive comments.

  • (Oxford World's Classics) Seneca, Tobias Reinhardt, John Davie
    oxford world’s classics DIALOGUES AND ESSAYS Lucius Annaeus Seneca (c.1bc–ad 65) was born in Corduba, Spain, and educated in Rome. Plagued all his life by ill health, he embarked on a political career after a stay in Egypt. In 41 he was exiled by the emperor Claudius and only returned to Rome in 49, when he became tutor to the young Nero. Together with the prefect of the Praetorian Guard Sextus Afranius Burrus, he acted as a senior adviser to Nero until 62, withdrew to private life, and was forced to commit suicide in 65. He had taken up writing as a young man. His earliest extant treatises date from the period before his exile. He continued to write throughout his life and was particularly productive in his final years. His treatises are recognized as the most important body of work on Stoicism in Latin. He also wrote the Letters to Lucilius and several tragedies, the earliest extant specimens of the genre in Latin. John Davie is Head of Classics at St Paul’s School, London. He is the author of a number of articles on classical subjects and has recently translated the complete surviving plays of Euripides for Penguin Classics (four volumes).
