M.DCC.KCII. \\ TO HIS GRACE HENRY, DUKE OF BEAUFORT. MAY IT PLEASE YOUR GRACE, IT has been long objeded to the mo- dern method of education, that fo great and valuable a part of youth is fpent amid ft the ruins of Idolatry ; whence an early taint and corruption (hard to be got over) both in principles and morals, has fometimes enfued. Indeed the Heathen Theology is fo interwoven with the writings of the ancients, and makes fo large a part of claflical learn- ing efpecially, as to be utterly infepa- rable from it. He, therefore, who fhall efFedlually dived it of the marvellous, leaving it rational and accountable, and, at jv I>EDICATION. at the fame time, make the whole fub fervient to the caufe of virtue and true religion, will be allowed to have rendered an acceptable fervice to man- kind. Such was the attempt of the inge- nious author of this work. It mud be admitted, that he has in great part fucceeded. Had he lived to revife it carefully, and to prepare it for another edition, all foreign afliftance had pro- bably been necdiefs. As it is, what feemed wanting, or the effefl of inad* vertency and error, I have endeavoured to fupply and amend. Having thus done what I could for this adopted offspring, it is time that I recommend it to a better and more able benefador, whofe further fupport may be of ufe towards its fettlement in the world. And my acquaintance with the goodnefs of your Grace's fpirit on manv DEDICATION. ^ many occafions, leaves me no room to doubt, that you will take this orphan alfo into your protedion. Indebted to your Grace's illuftrious houfe for all that I am, thither every grateful confideration is wont to dire£l my views and affedions. An apprehen- fion which then (truck me, that fuch a performance might be particularly fer- viceable to your Grace, firfl inclined me to liften to the overtures which were made for preparing another and more complete edition of this work ; againft which my little leifure, from other im- portant avocations, had elfe determined me. When, therefore, I fat down to examine the contents of it, and faw evi- dently the general ufefulnefs of the de- fign, I could with-hold no longer the little affiftance which I was capable of giving. Your Grace's name will bring it to the public teft. If then it (hall appear in fome fort to anfwer the intent, A 3 and \i DEDICATION. and be poffefled of intrinfic worth enough to fave it, I fhall find my great and leading expedation anfwered in the fame degree ; which was, that it might be improved into fomething agreeable and ufeful to your Grace; an end, which will ever principally command the attention of May it plcafe your Graci, Your Grace's moft dutiful, And devoted humble Servant, WILLIAM COOKE. THE THE PREFACE. WiE have here no defign to raife the repu- tation of this work, by depreciannsr the many others that have already been pubhihed on this fubjed ; it is fufficient for us to fay, that we have followed a plan entirely new, and, at ihe fame time, fuch an one as appeared to us much more ufeful, more rational, and lefs dry thau any that has gone before it. As all works of this kind muft necelTarily con- fift of materials colleded from other authors, no ex pence, no labour has been fpared; the mod celebrated works on this fubject have been con- fulted and compared with each other, and it has frequently happened, that fcattered hints, widely difperfed, have ferved to clear up the moll dif- ficult and intricate meanings, to a degiee of de- monftration; but amongft all the authors to which we have had recourfe, we mufl here parr ticularly acknowledge the great advantage we have received from that ingenious gentleman, the Abbe Pluche, in his biftory of the heavens. But viii PREFACE. But ns that learned anJ valuable writer feem: now and then to have carried nnatters a little too far» the reader will find lefs ufe made of him than in the firfl: edition. We have been careful to allow all things ;o evidence and reafon ; but as little as mi^^ht be to conje6ture. We have aifo r-^ceived fome ufeful hints from the Abbe B.uiicr's mythologv. But it behoves us efpecial- ly, to ack.no wledt^e the great fervice which we have received from the writings of the learned Bochart, Pignorius, Cafalius, Kircher, I '-^(ius, Montfau9on, and others, who have profe. " to treat of the Phoenician, Fgyptian, Greek, a Roman antiquliics. Some acquaintance with the heathen gods and the ancient fables, is a necelTary branch of polite learning, as without this it is impoiTible to obtain a competent knowledge of the Claillcs ; impof- fible to form a judgment of antique medals, fta- tues, or paintings; or even to underftand the per- formances of the moderns in thefe polite arts. Hence thefe ftudies have been generally ef- teemed neceOTary for the improvement of youth; but in works of this kind, fufficient care has not been taken to unfold the origin of the heathen gods, which has generally been rciftaken. Some imagining that they had been kings and princes ; others, that they were the various parts of nature; and others, that they were the patriarchs and heroes of th.e Jewil"h nation. But each of ihefe b-ive been found equally contrary to truth, when applied to the pagan theology, though fome of the r fables have been embclliflied with rr.any circum^ar.^e: relaced iu the Mofaic biftory. In worlLS PREFACE. )X works of this kind, no care has hitherto been taken to give the leaft intimation of abundance of circumllanccs neceflary to be known; and a perfon reads the hiftory of the gods without finding any thing added, that can help him to unravel the myfleries he meets v/ith in every page, or to entertain the leaft idea of the religion of their worOiippers. The Greeks were entiiely ignorant as to the origin of their god-, and incapable of . tranfmit- ting their hiflory to pofterity. Herodotus in- forms us, that the gods of llie Greeks were ori- ginally brought from Kgypt and Phoenicia, where they had been the objeBs of religious worfhip before any colonies from thefe countries fettled in Greece. We ought then to fearch in Egypt and Phoenicia for the origin of the gods ; for the gods whofe worfhip was chiefly promoted by the Egyptians, and carried by the Phoenicians over all the coafts of the world then known. The firft Egyptians, unacquainted with letters, gave all the informations to the people, all the rules of their cordu<Sl, by erecting figures, eafily uiiderAood, and which fervid as rules and orders neceffary to regulate their behaviour, and as ad- vertifements to provide for their own fafety. A very few figures diverlified by what they held in their hands, or carried on their heads, were fuf- ficient for this purpofe. Thefe were ingenious contrivances, and, fuch as were abfolutely necef- fary in a country, were the leaft miftake in point ©f time was fufBcient to ruin all their affairs. But X PREFACE. Hut thefe Egyptian fymbots, giving way to the eafy method of reaping inftruftion from the ufe of letters, which were afterwards introduced, foon became obfolete, and the memory of foiie particular virtues ftill remaining, they were re- vered as the images or reprefentations of fuperior and friendly beings, who had frequently delivered ihein from impending dangers, and foon were vvor{hipped as the gods of iheir fathers. Their hirtorits were wrote in verfe, and embellifhed with fictions founded on ancient traditions. The p;ie(is of oifFerent cour.tries increafed the delu- fion ; they had read the Mofaic hi (lory, or at least, h ' d heard that the fons of God had con- verfation with ihe daughters of men, and from hence, nHuenced by lufl or avarice, cloaked ihfcir own debaucheries, and fometimes thofe of princes and great men, under tho'e of a god; and (he poer^ whenever a princefs failed m point of modcfty, h;ad recou'fe to the fame method, in order to (holier her reputation frojn vulgar cenfure. By this mean:, the deities in after times were faid to live in various countries, and even in far diftant ages. Thus there became three htmdied Jupirers, an opinion derived from there being a number of places in which, in dilferent a^^es, Jupiter was faid to have lived, reigned, and perfor;ned fomeextraordinai y a<^ions, which an- cient fable*-, the fiQ:ions of the poets, and the artifices of the piiefis had rendered famous.

Between the French Revolution and the fall of Napoleon Eros’s portrayals shift from the Rococo’s mischievous infant revealer of love to a beautiful adolescent in love, more specifically, in love with Psyche. In the 1790s, with Neoclassicism in full force, the literature of antiquity was widely read by the upper class.

Trego B.A., University of South Florida, 2001 M.A. University of Cincinnati, 2004 Committee Chair: Holt N. Parker Committee Members: Peter van Minnen Kathryn J. Gutzwiller Abstract This analysis will look at the narration and structure of Plutarch’s Agesilaos. The project will offer insight into the methods by which the narrator constructs and presents the story of the life of a well-known historical figure and how his narrative techniques effects his reliability as a historical source. There is an abundance of exceptional recent studies on Plutarch’s interaction with and place within the historical tradition, his literary and philosophical influences, the role of morals in his Lives, and his use of source material, however there has been little scholarly focus—but much interest—in the examination of how Plutarch constructs his narratives to tell the stories they do.

  • Luxury at Rome: Avaritia, Aemulatio and the Mos Maiorum
    Roderick Thirkell White Ex Historia 117 Roderick Thirkell White1 University College London Luxury at Rome: avaritia, aemulatio and the mos maiorum This article sets out to put into perspective the ancient Roman discourse about luxury, which our extant literary sources almost universally condemn, on moral grounds. In it, I aim to define the scope and character of Roman luxury, and how it became an issue for the Romans, from the end of the third century BC to the beginning of the second century AD. With the aid of modern thinking about luxury and the diffusion of ideas in a society, I shed light on the reasons for the upsurge in luxurious living and, in particular, on how luxuries spread through the elite population, an issue that has been largely neglected by modern scholars. Books and articles on Roman luxury have been primarily concerned with examining the discourse of contemporary writers who criticised luxury;2 analysing the nature of Roman luxury;3 analysing the nature and impact of sumptuary legislation;4 or comparing the luxury of the Romans with that of other cultures.5 The only significant article dealing specifically with the diffusion of luxury is a provocative piece by Andrew Wallace-Hadrill, the focus of which is, however, limited and specific.6 For a series of moralising Roman authors, the second century BC saw the beginning of the corruption of the traditional stern moral fibre, as they saw it, of the Republic by an influx of 1 Roderick Thirkell White’s academic interests are concerned with aspects of the economy of the ancient world, primarily the late Roman Republic and Early Empire, with a focus on consumer and material culture.

    The History And Antiquities Of The Doric Race Vol. 1 By Karl Otfried Müller The History And Antiquities Of The Doric Race Book I. History Of The Doric Race, From The Earliest Times To The End Of The Peloponnesian War. Chapter I. § 1. Earliest Settlement of the Dorians in Thessaly. § 2. Description of the Vale of Tempe. § 3. Of the Passes of Olympus. § 4. And of Hestiæotis. § 5. The Perrhæbians. § 6. The Lapithæ. § 7. Limits of the Territory in Thessaly occupied by the Dorians. § 8. Contents of the Epic Poem Ægimius. § 9. Doric Migration from Thessaly to Crete. § 10. Relation of the Dorians to the Macedonians. 1. “From early times the Dorians and Ionians were the chief races of the Grecian nation; the latter of Pelasgic, the former of Hellenic origin; the latter an aboriginal people, the former a people much addicted to wandering. For the former, when under the dominion of Deucalion, dwelt in Phthiotis; and in the time of Dorus, the son of Hellen, they inhabited the country at the foot of Ossa and Olympus, which was called Hestiæotis. Afterwards, however, being driven from Hestiæotis by the Cadmeans, they dwelt under mount Pindus, and were called the Macednian nation. From thence they again migrated to Dryopis; and having passed from Dryopis into Peloponnesus, they were called the Doric race.” This connected account cannot be considered as derived immediately from ancient tradition; but can only be viewed as an attempt of the father of history to arrange and reconcile various legends. Nor indeed is it difficult to discover and examine the steps of the argument which led him to this conclusion.
