The Devil's Dictionary
THE DEVIL’S DICTIONARY BY AMBROSE BIERCE NEW YORK & WASHINGTON THE NEALE PUBLISHING COMPANY 1911 COPYRIGHT, 1911, BY The Neale Publishing Company CONTENTS PREFACE A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z PREFACE The Devil’s Dictionary was begun in a weekly paper in 1881, and was continued in a desultory way and at long intervals until 1906. In that year a large part of it was published in covers with the title The Cynic’s Word Book, a name which the author had not the power to reject nor the happiness to approve. To quote the publishers of the present work: “This more reverent title had previously been forced upon him by the religious scruples of the last newspaper in which a part of the work had appeared, with the natural consequence that when it came out in covers the country already had been flooded by its imitators with a score of ‘cynic’ books—The Cynic’s This, The Cynic’s That, and The Cynic’s t’Other. Most of these books were merely stupid, though some of them added the distinction of silliness. Among them, they brought the word ‘cynic’ into disfavor so deep that any book bearing it was discredited in advance of publication.” Meantime, too, some of the enterprising humorists of the country had helped themselves to such parts of the work as served their needs, and many of its definitions, anecdotes, phrases and so forth, had become more or less current in popular speech. -
Divine Riddles: a Sourcebook for Greek and Roman Mythology March, 2014
Divine Riddles: A Sourcebook for Greek and Roman Mythology March, 2014 E. Edward Garvin, Editor What follows is a collection of excerpts from Greek literary sources in translation. The intent is to give students an overview of Greek mythology as expressed by the Greeks themselves. But any such collection is inherently flawed: the process of selection and abridgement produces a falsehood because both the narrative and meta-narrative are destroyed when the continuity of the composition is interrupted. Nevertheless, this seems the most expedient way to expose students to a wide range of primary source information. I have tried to keep my voice out of it as much as possible and will intervene as editor (in this Times New Roman font) only to give background or exegesis to the text. All of the texts in Goudy Old Style are excerpts from Greek or Latin texts (primary sources) that have been translated into English. Ancient Texts In the field of Classics, we refer to texts by Author, name of the book, book number, chapter number and line number.1 Every text, regardless of language, uses the same numbering system. Homer’s Iliad, for example, is divided into 24 books and the lines in each book are numbered. Hesiod’s Theogony is much shorter so no book divisions are necessary but the lines are numbered. Below is an example from Homer’s Iliad, Book One, showing the English translation on the left and the Greek original on the right. When citing this text we might say that Achilles is first mentioned by Homer in Iliad 1.7 (i.7 is also acceptable). -

Ovid's Elegies
MARLOWE'S POEMS OVID'S ELEGIES P. OVIDII NASONIS AMORUM, LIBER PRIMUS ELEGIA I Quemadmodum a Cupidine pro bellis amores scribere coactus sit We which were Ovid's five books now are three, For these before the rest preferreth he; If reading five thou plairist oftediousness, Two taten away, thy labour will be less. With Muse prepared I meant to sing ofarms, Choosing a subject fit for fierce alarms. Both verses were alike till Love (men say) Began to smile and took one foot away. Rash boy, who gave thee power to change a line? We are the Muses' prophets, none ofthine. 10 What ifthy mother take Diana's bow? Q~m (•• •J sit: In what way he was forced by Cupid to write about love instead of war. 1-4 ~ f. .J IeJs: Ovid's first edition ofthe Amonr contained five books; he reorganized them into three books for the second edition. The personification of the inanimate objects (i.e.• giving them the faculty ofspeech) is a figure ofspeech known as "prosopopoeia:' 5 Mme (.. .Jarms: The opening word ofthe Amonr (arma) is also the opening word ofVirgil's Aeneid. Thus Ovid shows his intent to write martial epic. Also, Marlowe mentions the muse at the be- ginning, as is customary, but Ovid does not. 7 Love: when capitalized, and often when not capitalized, denotes Cupid (also called AIDor or Eros). 7-8 Both f. .J away: The meter of Latin (and Greek) marcial epic is da€tylic hexameter. Cupid takes a foot away from the second line, leaving what is called an elegiac distich (couplet): a dactylic hexameter followed by what is called a dactylic pentameter. -
