Excursions Four excursions have been arranged for delegates on Friday afternoon. Castle Drogo ‘The last castle to be built in England’, this remarkable granite building, set above the Teign Gorge, is a surprisingly warm and comfortable family home, now owned by the National Trust. Commissioned by retail tycoon Julius Drewe, it was built in the 1910s and 1920s from designs by Sir Edwin Lutyens. The castle took many years to complete, with the First World War and the economic downturn causing many delays, and borrows styles of castle-building from the medieval and Tudor periods, along with more minimalist contemporary approaches. A notable feature is the encasement of the service staircase, around which the main staircase climbs. The defensive characteristics of Castle Drogo are essentially decorative and, behind the imposing façade, poignant family keepsakes sit alongside 17th-century tapestries. The dramatic Dartmoor setting in which it sits can be appreciated from the delightful formal garden and rhododendron valley. Knightshayes Court One of the finest surviving Gothic Revival houses, built in the lush landscape of mid-Devon, Knightshayes Court is a rare example of the work of the eccentric and inspired architect William Burges. Built for the grandson of pioneer lace-maker John Heathcoat in 1869, the house is an exciting architectural experience, with extraordinary ‘medieval’ romantic interiors, rich decoration and ceramics. Since the National Trust took over guardianship of the house in 1973, it has sought to recover and restore as many of Burges’s fittings as possible, including some ‚sparkling‛ ceilings, such as that in the Drawing Room, which was discovered in 1981, having been boarded over as early as 1889. Outside of the house, the restored and fully productive organic kitchen garden is a 5 treat for everyone who enjoys local produce. The vast garden beyond, which was the Heathcoat Amory family’s great passion, is renowned for its rare trees, shrubs and seasonal colours. Killerton House Killerton is an 18th-century house with a hillside garden in Broadclyst, near Exeter, owned by the National Trust since 1944. At over 2,590 hectares, the Killerton estate is one of the largest the Trust has acquired. A steep wooded hillside within the estate includes the remains of an Iron Age Hill fort, which has also yielded evidence of Roman occupation. The house itself, built for the Acland family in 1778, now brings to life generations of the Acland family as the National Trust displays it as a much-loved and comfortable family home. It is also home to a collection of 18th- to 20th- century costumes, originally known as the Paulise de Bush collection, exhibited in period rooms. The garden, created in the 1770s by John Veitch, one of the leading landscape designers of the time, features magnolias and rare trees, as well as an ice house and early 19th-century summer house. St Peter’s Cathedral, Exeter Saint Peter’s Cathedral is an Anglican Cathedral and seat of the Bishop of Exeter. Work on the Cathedral began in 1114 and it was consecrated in 1133, but the pair of massive towers is all that remains of the original building today. The late medieval rebuilding was started by Bishop Bronescombe in the 1270s and was completed in the 14th century, and the West Front is decorated in the style of the period, with the lowest tier of figures displaying some of the finest medieval figure sculptures in England. The carving is particularly well-preserved in the South Porch, where there is a scene of the Annunciation and a Nativity scene opposite. The upper row of figures with Christ and the 12 apostles at the centre was added in about 1460-80. The Cathedral has the longest unbroken stretch of Gothic stone vaulting in the world. Other features of particular interest include the Bishop’s Throne, one of the finest pieces of woodwork of the late 14th century; an astronomical clock made in 1376; and original glass in the East Window. The excursions to Catsle Drogo, Knightshayes Court and Killerton house will begin at 1pm and packed lunches will be provided for those who have booked lunch. Coaches will leave from Holland Hall, and they will return there by 4.30pm. Delegates taking the guided tour of Exeter Cathedral should meet at the Cathedral at 2pm. You may wish to walk into the city or take the D bus from campus and ask for the stop on Queen’s Street (next to Marks & Spencer). For those not going on excursions, there will be a screening of the 2011 film The Eagle in Newman C in the Peter Chalk Centre from 2pm on Friday. There will also be an opportunity to sign-up for a guided tour of the city’s recently refurbished Royal Albert Memorial Museum. The sign-up sheet will be available on Wednesday and Thursday at the conference desk in the Peter Chalk Centre and places are limited. Academic Programme Papers: Sessions will follow the usual format of the Classical Association Conference with papers of 20 minutes followed by 10 minutes for discussion. We hope that you will understand that with so much on offer, you may find clashes between things that interest you, but you are welcome to move between rooms and panels at the end of individual papers. Any last-minute changes to the programme that follows (due to illness etc.) will be advertised on the conference noticeboard in the foyer of the Peter Chalk Centre. For chairs and speakers: So that we can keep to time and allow people to move between sessions, we would ask that papers are kept strictly to 20 minutes with a further 10 minutes for discussion.

  • The Politics of Roman Memory in the Age of Justinian DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the D
    The Politics of Roman Memory in the Age of Justinian DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Marion Woodrow Kruse, III Graduate Program in Greek and Latin The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Anthony Kaldellis, Advisor; Benjamin Acosta-Hughes; Nathan Rosenstein Copyright by Marion Woodrow Kruse, III 2015 ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the use of Roman historical memory from the late fifth century through the middle of the sixth century AD. The collapse of Roman government in the western Roman empire in the late fifth century inspired a crisis of identity and political messaging in the eastern Roman empire of the same period. I argue that the Romans of the eastern empire, in particular those who lived in Constantinople and worked in or around the imperial administration, responded to the challenge posed by the loss of Rome by rewriting the history of the Roman empire. The new historical narratives that arose during this period were initially concerned with Roman identity and fixated on urban space (in particular the cities of Rome and Constantinople) and Roman mythistory. By the sixth century, however, the debate over Roman history had begun to infuse all levels of Roman political discourse and became a major component of the emperor Justinian’s imperial messaging and propaganda, especially in his Novels. The imperial history proposed by the Novels was aggressivley challenged by other writers of the period, creating a clear historical and political conflict over the role and import of Roman history as a model or justification for Roman politics in the sixth century.

  • The University of Exeter<Br>
    News from the Universities The University of Exeter Initiatives in local, regional and community history The University of Exeter now operates on two separate campuses, Streatham Campus in Exeter and, since 2005, Tremough Campus near Falmouth, Cornwall. History at Exeter has expanded considerably in the last decade, partly as a result of the opening of the Tremough campus. There are now 27 full-time staff based at Streatham and another 10 in Tremough, with research interests extending from early Medieval Britain to post- Communist Eastern Europe. In the last five years there has also been a considerable intensification of activity in local and regional history, as History has sought to forge links with local community groups, institutions and other charitable and business organisations. In many respects staff at Tremough have taken the lead in developing these connections. A strong civic dimension has been developed within the History cluster at Tremough, with significant engagement with the Cornish community at a variety of levels. This was based initially on the long-standing work of the Institute of Cornish Studies, part of the University of Exeter but part-funded by Cornwall Council, and located in Cornwall well before the establishment of the Cornwall Campus. Since the early 1990s, the Institute has focused on issues of identity in modern Cornwall, which it has explored through a variety of methods—for example, biography, demography and oral history—and which has led among other things to the establishment of strong links with the overseas Cornish diaspora and to the publication of the annual volume Cornish Studies (University of Exeter Press).

  • Hadrian and the Greek East
    HADRIAN AND THE GREEK EAST: IMPERIAL POLICY AND COMMUNICATION DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Demetrios Kritsotakis, B.A, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Fritz Graf, Adviser Professor Tom Hawkins ____________________________ Professor Anthony Kaldellis Adviser Greek and Latin Graduate Program Copyright by Demetrios Kritsotakis 2008 ABSTRACT The Roman Emperor Hadrian pursued a policy of unification of the vast Empire. After his accession, he abandoned the expansionist policy of his predecessor Trajan and focused on securing the frontiers of the empire and on maintaining its stability. Of the utmost importance was the further integration and participation in his program of the peoples of the Greek East, especially of the Greek mainland and Asia Minor. Hadrian now invited them to become active members of the empire. By his lengthy travels and benefactions to the people of the region and by the creation of the Panhellenion, Hadrian attempted to create a second center of the Empire. Rome, in the West, was the first center; now a second one, in the East, would draw together the Greek people on both sides of the Aegean Sea. Thus he could accelerate the unification of the empire by focusing on its two most important elements, Romans and Greeks. Hadrian channeled his intentions in a number of ways, including the use of specific iconographical types on the coinage of his reign and religious language and themes in his interactions with the Greeks. In both cases it becomes evident that the Greeks not only understood his messages, but they also reacted in a positive way.

  • Herodotus in the North? Reflections on a Colossal Cauldron (4.81)
    Herodotus in the North? Reflections on a Colossal Cauldron (4.81) Stephanie West Nearly 150 years ago J.W. Blakesley, in the introduction to his commentary, protested against anachronistic assumptions about the manner in which Herodotus gathered his material: ‘Every one accustomed to the facilities which the present time offers involuntarily attributes to any individual of the same social position with himself similar methods of effecting any given purpose — unconsciously forgetting the entirely different conditions of so­ cial existence which an interval of more than 2000 years implies’. In par­ ticular, the modem reader tends to underestimate the problems of travel. ‘The mere difficulties and dangers of locomotion were enormous. Until the time of Alexander the seas swarmed with pirates, and the land with banditti (Polybius, iii 58, 59). The only countries to which there is any satisfactory evidence of Greek visitors having resorted for the mere purpose of gratifying an intelligent curiosity are Lydia (under the reign of Croesus) and Egypt, with both of which places there existed direct commercial relations of con­ siderable importance. Where this was the case, the interest of the states whose revenue was increased by levying duties upon the merchants would induce them to render the access of foreigners something safer. But on the other hand, the very same interest would tend to confine traffic to certain definite channels, and to fetter it by arbitrary rules enforced in the most summary manner ... Admitting our author to have been as naturally inclined to travel as an Englishman of the present day, his means of gratifying this passion must have been very limited’.1 We might suppose that travel is substantially easier nowadays than it was in the mid-nineteenth century, and the difference from mid-fifth-century Herodotus, with a commentary by the Rev.

  • MONEY and the EARLY GREEK MIND: Homer, Philosophy, Tragedy
    This page intentionally left blank MONEY AND THE EARLY GREEK MIND How were the Greeks of the sixth century bc able to invent philosophy and tragedy? In this book Richard Seaford argues that a large part of the answer can be found in another momentous development, the invention and rapid spread of coinage, which produced the first ever thoroughly monetised society. By transforming social relations, monetisation contributed to the ideas of the universe as an impersonal system (presocratic philosophy) and of the individual alienated from his own kin and from the gods (in tragedy). Seaford argues that an important precondition for this monetisation was the Greek practice of animal sacrifice, as represented in Homeric epic, which describes a premonetary world on the point of producing money. This book combines social history, economic anthropology, numismatics and the close reading of literary, inscriptional, and philosophical texts. Questioning the origins and shaping force of Greek philosophy, this is a major book with wide appeal. richard seaford is Professor of Greek Literature at the University of Exeter. He is the author of commentaries on Euripides’ Cyclops (1984) and Bacchae (1996) and of Reciprocity and Ritual: Homer and Tragedy in the Developing City-State (1994).
