  • Profile of a Plant: the Olive in Early Medieval Italy, 400-900 CE By
    Profile of a Plant: The Olive in Early Medieval Italy, 400-900 CE by Benjamin Jon Graham A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2014 Doctoral Committee: Professor Paolo Squatriti, Chair Associate Professor Diane Owen Hughes Professor Richard P. Tucker Professor Raymond H. Van Dam © Benjamin J. Graham, 2014 Acknowledgements Planting an olive tree is an act of faith. A cultivator must patiently protect, water, and till the soil around the plant for fifteen years before it begins to bear fruit. Though this dissertation is not nearly as useful or palatable as the olive’s pressed fruits, its slow growth to completion resembles the tree in as much as it was the patient and diligent kindness of my friends, mentors, and family that enabled me to finish the project. Mercifully it took fewer than fifteen years. My deepest thanks go to Paolo Squatriti, who provoked and inspired me to write an unconventional dissertation. I am unable to articulate the ways he has influenced my scholarship, teaching, and life. Ray Van Dam’s clarity of thought helped to shape and rein in my run-away ideas. Diane Hughes unfailingly saw the big picture—how the story of the olive connected to different strands of history. These three people in particular made graduate school a humane and deeply edifying experience. Joining them for the dissertation defense was Richard Tucker, whose capacious understanding of the history of the environment improved this work immensely. In addition to these, I would like to thank David Akin, Hussein Fancy, Tom Green, Alison Cornish, Kathleen King, Lorna Alstetter, Diana Denney, Terre Fisher, Liz Kamali, Jon Farr, Yanay Israeli, and Noah Blan, all at the University of Michigan, for their benevolence.

Without Dr. T., Eric, Jay, and Maryanne, my academic career would have never begun and I will forever be grateful for the opportunities they gave me. At Michigan, guidance in negotiating the administrative side of the PhD given by Kathleen and Michelle has been invaluable, and I have treasured the conversations I have had with them and Terre, Diana, and Molly about gardening and travelling. The network of gardeners at Project Grow has provided me with hundreds of hours of joy and a respite from the stress of the academy. I owe many thanks to my fellow graduate students, not only for attending the brown bags and Three Field Talks I gave that helped shape this project, but also for their astute feedback, wonderful camaraderie, and constant support over our many years together. Due particular recognition for reading chapters, lengthy discussions, office friendships, and hours of good company are the following: Michael McOsker, Karen Acton, Beth Platte, Trevor Kilgore, Patrick Parker, Anna Whittington, Gene Cassedy, Ryan Hughes, Ananda Burra, Tim Hart, Matt Naglak, Garrett Ryan, and Ellen Cole Lee.

  • Freedom from Passions in Augustine
    UNIVERSITY OF HELSINKI FACULTY OF THEOLOGY FINLAND FREEDOM FROM PASSIONS IN AUGUSTINE Gao Yuan 高 源 ACADEMIC DISSERTATION To be publicly discussed, by due permission of the Faculty of Theology at the University of Helsinki in Lecture Hall 13, University Main Building, on 4 November 2015, at 12 noon Helsinki 2015 ISBN 978-951-51-1625-3 (paperback) ISBN 978-951-51-1626-0 (PDF) Copyright © Gao Yuan (高源) https://ethesis.helsinki.fi/en Cover: Wang Rui and Gao Yuan Juvenes Print Oy Helsinki 2015 ABSTRACT This study presents a general overview of Augustine’s insights into passions as well as his approach to the therapy of emotions and their sanctification. Attending to various phases of his writings, this work explores the systematic structure of Augustine’s tenets on passions and on the freedom from passions in the context of his philosophical and theological convictions on the issue of amor sui and amor Dei. The analysis begins by examining Augustine’s language of passions and the doctrinal connections between Augustine and his predecessors. I provide a survey of Augustine’s usage of emotional terms and criticise the position that Augustine suggested a dichotomy between passio and affectus as well as the claim that none of Augustine’s Latin terms can be justifiably translated by the modern term “emotion”. On the basis of terminological and doctrinal observations, I clarify the general features of Augustine’s psychology of passions in Chapter 2. In addressing the issue of how Augustine transformed his predecessors’ therapy of passions and their ideal of freedom from emotion into his theological framework in Chapter 3, I examine a series of related concepts, such as propatheia, metriopatheia, apatheia and eupatheia, to determine how he understood them in various stages of his philosophical and theological thinking.

  • The Matron of Ephesus 1 Petronius, Satyricon, 111-112
    The Matron of Ephesus 1 Petronius, Satyricon, 111-112 Created by E. DeHoratius Below you will find a complete text of Petronius’ Matron of Ephesus story. Following this ‘clean’ text is an annotated text with notes. It is important, however, that you become accustomed to confronting Latin and just Latin, as opposed to the stilted, noted, glossed Latin that you are often presented. Use these ‘clean’ texts for study, review, and most importantly, translation in class. DO NOT WRITE ON THIS TEXT; DO NOT CORRUPT IT. Practicing a passage, after you have pre- pared it, on a blank text such as this is the best way not only to know it but also to become a better reader of Latin. Petronius, Satyricon 111-112, the Matron of Ephesus (1) Matrona quaedam Ephesi tam notae erat pudicitiae, ut vici- narum quoque gentium feminas ad spectaculum sui evocaret. (2) Haec ergo, cum virum extulisset, non contenta vulgari more funus passis prosequi crinibus aut nudatum pectus in conspectu frequentiae plangere, in conditorium etiam prosecuta est de- functum, positumque in hypogaeo Graeco more corpus custo- dire ac flere totis noctibus diebusque coepit.(3) Sic afflictan- tem se ac mortem inedia persequentem non parentes potuerunt abducere, non propinqui; magistratus ultimo repulsi abierunt, complorataque singularis exempli femina ab omnibus quintum iam diem sine alimento trahebat. (4) Assidebat aegrae fidissima ancilla, simulque et lacrimas commodabat lugenti, et, quotiens- cumque defecerat, positum in monumento lumen renovabat. (5) Una igitur in tota civitate fabula erat: solum illud affulsisse verum pudicitiae amorisque exemplum omnis ordinis homines confitebantur, cum interim imperator provinciae latrones iussit crucibus affigi secundum illam casulam, in qua recens cadaver matrona deflebat.(6) Proxima ergo nocte, cum miles, qui cruces asservabat, ne quis ad sepulturam corpus detraheret, notasset sibi lumen inter monumenta clarius fulgens et gemitum lugentis aud- isset, vitio gentis humanae concupiit scire quis aut quid faceret.

If this volume is found satisfactory, and meets with success, it will be followed by a reconstruction of the anti-christian polemic of Celsus, to be succeeded by other volumes on the Early Apologists, the first authentic martyrdoms, and a General Sketch of the attitude of the Roman Administration towards the Christian religion, and in particular a separate treat­ ment of the reign of Marcus Aurelius in this respect.

THE General Editor of The Cambridg-e Bible for Schools thinks it right to say that he does not hold himself responsible either for the interpretation of particular passages which the Editors of the several Books have adopted, or for any opinion on points of doctrine that they may have expressed. In the New Testament more especially questions arise of the deepest theological import, on which the ablest and most conscientious interpreters have differed and always will differ. His aim has been in all such cases to leave each Contributor to the unfettered exercise of his own judgment, only taking care that mere controversy should as far as possible be avoided. He has contented himself chiefly with a careful revision of the notes, with pointing out omissions, with vi PREFACE. suggesting occasionally a reconsideration of some question, or a fuller treatment of difficult passages, and the like.

  • Pragmatics of Fraus: Encoding and Decoding of Deceit in Seneca's Troades Andthyestes
    Pragmatics of fraus: Encoding and Decoding of Deceit in Seneca’s Troades and Thyestes Lavinia Scolari 1 Introduction The Latin language has a broad range of words covering the semantic area of ‘deception’ and ‘trick’.1 Among them, fraus occupies a central position in the dramaturgical contexts as a recurring pattern of tragic plots.2 Scholars have pointed out that it expresses the general notion of deceit but also the concept of ‘harm through deception’.3In fact, the basic meaning of fraus is ‘injury’ or ‘dam- age’ (malum, quod quis facit uel patitur, damnum, iniuria), as the connection to the roots of Greek θραύειν (‘to break’) and τιτρώσκειν (‘to wound’) corroborates;4 therefore, fraus is a ‘detriment’ that implies a certain measure of ‘fraudulent responsibility’. In other words, it denotes a ‘deceit’ or a ‘stratagem’,5 in which the notio nocendi (‘the notion of doing harm’) prevails and it comprises con- ducts involving guilt which are therefore liable to punishment: accedit quod iniuria fallendo fit (‘it occurs that one commits an outrage by deceiving’).6 Frequently, fraus is combined with dolus, especially in non-legal texts, where they are, to some extent, interchangeable (one need only think that fraus corresponds to dolus malus in ThLL’s definition).7 Nevertheless, they represent independent concepts: the former conveys the notion of ‘damage’ or ‘harm’ (like in the expression sine fraude), confirming its strictly negative (moral) sense; by contrast, the latter, which communicates the idea of ‘mali- cious intent’ (like in the expression dolo malo, ‘evil device’ or ‘artifice’, hence ‘fraud’, ‘deceit’),8 may also have a positive connotation, even if the negative sense is predominant.

  • The Singer in the Ecclesiastical Hierarchy
    The Singer in the Ecclesiastical Hierarchy The Early History of the Order Kaija Ravolainen STUDIA MUSICA 59 2014 © Kaija Ravolainen 2014 Doctoral dissertation University of the Arts Helsinki Sibelius Academy DocMus Doctoral School Studia Musica 59 Juvenes Print – Suomen Yliopistopaino Oy Tampere 2014 ISBN 978-952-5959-77-2 ISSN 0788-3757 Abstract The present study examines the origin and the early phases of the ecclesiastical order of the singer, nowadays generally called cantor. The constitutive regulations concerning the order derive from the late fourth century in the canons of the Synod of Laodicea and the Apostolic Constitutions. The order of the singer was established in eastern Christendom, while in the West, it never was added to the ranks of the ecclesiastical hierarchy. There, the members of other ecclesiastical grades answered for the psalmody, although allusions to singers occasionally appear. The study period extends to the seventh century CE. The development of both ecclesiastical singing and the hierarchy is treated from the beginning of the history of the Church. This is necessary for identifying the standing and the role of the singer, whose order emerges rather late in comparison with other ecclesiastical orders. One of the earlier orders belongs to the reader, who is considered to have preceded the singer, but also to have been one, as all reading was performed in recitation. The study also aims to define why a separate order of the singer was needed, if the reader was able to execute these duties as well. The materials include both normative – the canons of ecclesiastical councils and synods, and church orders – and descriptive sources, the latter consisting primarily of the texts of the patristic authors.
