  • BEATRICE EILEEN DE CARDI Beatrice Eileen De Cardi 1914–2016
    BEATRICE EILEEN DE CARDI Beatrice Eileen de Cardi 1914–2016 BEATRICE DE CARDI, WHO DIED on 5 July 2016 aged 102, achieved the remarkable feat of filling in many of the gaps in our knowledge of the archaeological record over a vast area which stretched from the Persian Gulf to the Khyber Pass. She was able to do this mainly by survey, and then went on to establish the relative chronology of some of the new wares she identified by means of judicious excavation. In addition, she traced some of the connections between her new sites and other better-known ones which provided absolute dates for the new material. She achieved all this without the benefit of permanent institutional backing and never held an academic post, although she was generally acknowledged to be a talented and professional archaeologist. Unusually, she had a second parallel life, until her official retirement, as an outstanding administrator. After retirement she devoted herself solely to archaeology. Beatrice was born, just before the outbreak of the First World War, on 5 June 1914, to a Corsican father and an American mother. She was the second of two daughters. She claimed that one of her earliest memories is of being in the cellar of their house in Ealing during an air raid with her mother dressed in what sounds like full evening dress. Apart from this the war had little impact on her. From an early age Beatrice wanted to be a ballet dancer and, although ill health prevented this, the training she received may well have been the reason for the upright posture and slightly imperious air which stayed with her all her life.1 1 The information on B de C’s life until she joined the Council for British Archaeology comes from an interview she gave to Dr P.-J.

Dissertation Advisor: Professor Jan Ziolkowski David Wilson Ungvary Verse and Conversion: Poetship, Christianity, and the Transformation of the Roman World, AD 400-700 Abstract This dissertation presents a cultural history of Christian Latin poetic authorship from the late Roman through the post-imperial period. It analyzes the evolution of Latin verse-writing habits, authorial practices, and routines (i.e. “poetship”) within contemporary Christian discourses surrounding spiritual self-formation, self-presentation, and behavior, and in the context of social and political reconfigurations during the period of Roman imperial transition from roughly AD 400 to 700.
