  • OCTAVIU´S ETHOS in the TV SHOW ROME (HBO) Camilla Ferreira
    Received: July 30, 2019 | Accepted: Octobre 30, 2019 OCTAVIU´S ETHOS IN THE TV SHOW ROME (HBO) Camilla Ferreira Paulino da Silva1 Abstract The present piece composes the framework known within the Classical Studies as a reception analysis, that is, a study that, as presented by Martindale (2006, p. 1-2), links the ancient world and other historical periods, showing that ancient discourses are not confined in their own time, having a complex chain of connections between them and the most diverse media, including television, as here uit is analyzed. In this process, it is emphasized that the relations between the old statements and their later appropriations are produced at the point of reception, in which the reader is essencial in the interpretive process. In this article, I look at the character Otavio from HBO's Rome series, seeking to highlight the application of an ethos proposed for the character, of an intelligent boy, prodigy, demonstrating an element already used in the Ancient literary tradition to make up the image of the future princeps. To do so, I use Bourdieu's concept of cultural capital to argue about the process of creating the show, and I also make use of some ancient texts, such as Suetonius' Life of Augustus and Cicero’s Phillipics.

  • The Womanizing of Mark Antony: Virile Ruthlessness and Redemptive Cross-Dressing in Rome, Season Two
    THE WOMANIZING OF MARK ANTONY: VIRILE RUTHLESSNESS AND REDEMPTIVE CROSS-DRESSING IN ROME, SEASON TWO Margaret M. Toscano This essay explores the way Roman masculinity functions as a signifier for imperial potency and domination, vulnerability, and loss, in Season Two of the acclaimed HBO-BBC series Rome. I argue that the development of the character of Mark Antony is pivotal for understanding how gender and sex are used as metaphors for the movement of power and redemption within the story. After the death of Julius Caesar, the eternal city erupts into mad chaos and a ruthless grab for power. Only those with steel nerves and blades can survive in this environment. Raw, masculine strength is needed to take control. What is respected in this context fits with tradi- tional Roman notions of maleness – the ideal of the strong, “invincible warrior,” who penetrates with but is not penetrated by his sword and his penis.1 Softness and vulnerability are not just despised as womanly; they presage the loss of empire. In her essay, “Spectacle of Sex: Bodies on Display in Rome,” Stacie Raucci argues that what is original about the way sexuality is treated in Season One of the HBO-BBC series is the way “the virtue and strength of men are contingent upon sexual prowess, and their arena is the bedroom, not just the battlefield.”2 She further argues that Mark Antony is “the pri- mary sex symbol of the series” and that it is “by exhibiting his body, not by fighting, that Antony demonstrates his virility.”3 Something fundamental about this equation changes, however, during the second season of Rome, 1 Octavian uses the term “invincible warrior” in Episode 8 to describe the ideal Roman male.
