Anyway I hope you enjoy this months eclectic mix of articles and info. Change Of Logo... We have changed our logo! Our previous logo was based on an eagle from the back of an Italian Mus- solini era coin. The new logo is based on the leaping boar image depicted on the antefix found at Chester. Two versions exist. The first is for a white back- ground and the second for black or a dark back- ground. For our logo we have framed the boar in a victory wreath with a purple ribbon. We tried various colour ribbons but purple worked out best - red made it look like a Christmas wreath! I have sent these logo’s to a garment manufacturer in the UK and should have prices back shortly for group jackets, sweat shirts and polo shirts.

  • Brogitaros and the Pessinus-Affair Some Considerations on the Galatian Background of Cicero’S Lampoon Against Clodius in 56 BC (Harusp
    GEPHYRA 15, 2018, 119-133 Brogitaros and the Pessinus-Affair Some Considerations on the Galatian Background of Cicero’s Lampoon against Clodius in 56 BC (Harusp. Resp. 27–29) Altay COŞKUN I. The Romanness of Our Perspective on Ancient Pessinus The sanctuary of Kybele Agdistis in Pessinus is considered to be one of the most famous of ancient Anatolia, if not the ancient world at large. Most recent research is, however, increasingly skeptical of its alleged Phrygian past, or at least of any renown that the cult place might have enjoyed beyond the narrow confines of the Gallos Valley so early in time. Scholars are thus ever more inclined to take seriously the lateness of the material, literary and epigraphic evidence. Some of them now believe that the foundation of the so-called temple state may well have happened as late as the 3rd century. I have suggested elsewhere that we should put more trust in Strabo’s brief account on Pessinus, because he seems to be hitting the nail when he claims: “Famous has the sanctuary been made by the Romans, when they sent for the statue of the throned goddess (aphidryma) from there, following the oracles of the Sibyl, just as in the case of the statue of Asklepios at Epidauros.”1 The reference to the aphidry- ma is certainly anachronistic, for we know that the Roman ambassadors brought home an aniconic meteorite (baitylos) in 205/4 BC.2 This concession notwithstanding, the main allegation is still con- sistent with the rest of Strabo’s report, namely that the architectural splendor of Pessinus was owed to the Attalid kings, and that the humble remains of a great Phrygian past have to be sought outside the Gallos Valley on the banks of the Sangarios River.3 Assoc.

  • Calendar of Roman Events
    Introduction Steve Worboys and I began this calendar in 1980 or 1981 when we discovered that the exact dates of many events survive from Roman antiquity, the most famous being the ides of March murder of Caesar. Flipping through a few books on Roman history revealed a handful of dates, and we believed that to fill every day of the year would certainly be impossible. From 1981 until 1989 I kept the calendar, adding dates as I ran across them. In 1989 I typed the list into the computer and we began again to plunder books and journals for dates, this time recording sources. Since then I have worked and reworked the Calendar, revising old entries and adding many, many more. The Roman Calendar The calendar was reformed twice, once by Caesar in 46 BC and later by Augustus in 8 BC. Each of these reforms is described in A. K. Michels’ book The Calendar of the Roman Republic. In an ordinary pre-Julian year, the number of days in each month was as follows: 29 January 31 May 29 September 28 February 29 June 31 October 31 March 31 Quintilis (July) 29 November 29 April 29 Sextilis (August) 29 December. The Romans did not number the days of the months consecutively. They reckoned backwards from three fixed points: The kalends, the nones, and the ides. The kalends is the first day of the month. For months with 31 days the nones fall on the 7th and the ides the 15th. For other months the nones fall on the 5th and the ides on the 13th.

  • F.F. Bruce, "Babylon and Rome," the Evangelical Quarterly 13
    F.F. Bruce, “Babylon and Rome,” The Evangelical Quarterly 13 (October 15th, 1941): 241-261. Babylon and Rome F.F. Bruce [p.241] I It cannot seriously be denied that most of the features of advanced Catholic1 ritual have little or no direct warrant in the New Testament. It is frequently urged in support of such ritual that it can be traced in unbroken sequence back to the fourth century. “No sooner did the primitive Church emerge from the centuries of persecution, and acquire freedom from external repression, than it gave full and wonderful expression to its devotional spirit in elaborate and beautiful Symbolic ways.”2 Antiquity, however, is no guarantee of apostolic authority, especially as there is a gap of nearly three centuries between apostolic days and the introduction of the greater part of these ritual practices into the Church. Indeed, far from our being able to find Scriptural authority for these practices, all the available evidence on their provenance goes to show that they were taken over into the Church from the various Mystery cults which were so popular throughout the Roman Empire in the early centuries o£ our era. The appeal to the Fathers cannot take the place of an appeal to the Apostles. “The most honoured of the Fathers were men whose minds were impregnated by the superstitions of Pagan religion, or the subtleties of Pagan philosophy.... They were ‘near the fountain’ of Christianity, forsooth; yes, but they were nearer still to the cesspool of Paganism. And inquiry will show that it is to the cesspool that we should attribute every perversion of the truth which to-day defaces what is called the Christian religion.”3 The proof of the descent of Catholic ritual from the Mysteries is not the object of this paper; for such proof, the reader may consult such works as R.

  • Eclogae, Pur Discostandoci Da Alcune Scelte, Come Segnalato Nel Commento, Che Riguardano Essenzialmente Interventi Sul Testo Che Non Ci Sentiamo Di Condividere
    Introduzione Il testo L’edizione a cui ci riconduciamo per tutta l’opera ausoniana è quella del Green, The Works of Ausonius, Oxford 1991. L’edizione del Green, che costituisce ad oggi un riferimento imprescindibile per gli studi su Ausonio, e che ha il merito non da poco di aver portato chiarezza nella confusione che regnava nelle citazioni dell’opera del poeta bordolese1, si segnala anche per i progressi nella questione testuale, per l’attenzione nella valutazione dei codici e per la serietà della sezione critica, e i suoi molti meriti non sono offuscati da alcune perplessità che lascia a proposito dei numerosi emendamenti, non sempre giustificati dalla necessità2. In questo lavoro ci rifacciamo ad essa per il testo e per l’ordinamento delle eclogae, pur discostandoci da alcune scelte, come segnalato nel commento, che riguardano essenzialmente interventi sul testo che non ci sentiamo di condividere. Inoltre Green espunge dal corpus delle eclogae la dedica a Drepanio, che apre il gruppo 19-25 nei codici, ritenendo che essa non fosse destinata ad accompagnare il Liber3, e su questo punto ci troviamo a dissentire. Se ne discuterà nel commento, ma accennare già adesso alla questione ci sembra necessario, poiché gli argomenti che ci persuadono hanno una certa rilevanza che si riflette sull’interpretazione dell’opera4. 1 Cfr. L. Mondin, Dieci anni di critica ausoniana, «BSL» 24, 1994, p. 200: «Una più razionale ridistribuzione dell’eterogeneo corpus ausoniano secondo lucidi criteri di genere e di affinità contenutistica rende complessivamente più fruibile l’edizione e risolve in buona parte il problema delle citazioni, finora oscillanti tra la numerazione progressiva dei componimenti secondo l’ed.

  • Mothers' Day 2013 UU Talk
    Mother’s Day Initially, I would like to acknowledge a sermon, which I have drawn on in part, by Steve Edington of UU Church of Nashua, US. He maintains that in his experience ‘the sermon topic most avoided’ is the one about mothers on Mothers’ Day! Why? Praise mothers too much and too uncritically and you invite criticism from anyone who has some unpleasant issues they do not want to be reminded of; if you refer to any of these types of issues you then have criticism from those who do not have any of these issues and don’t need to hear of them. Then you may have women who aren’t mothers, by choice or circumstance and are not needing to hear about the virtues of motherhood or even those who aren’t greatly thrilled about motherhood – then there is the traditional family structure mothers, the single mothers, the same sex mothers etc etc who need to be acknowledged. He feels that the topic becomes a minefield and has decided the way to go is to talk about the history of Mothers’ Day. This is the path I had decided to follow when preparing for this talk on Mothers’ Day and before reading this particular sermon. Spiritual Origins of Mothers Day The traditional practice of honouring motherhood is rooted in antiquity when societies tended to celebrate Goddesses and symbols of motherhood rather than actual mothers.
