    A KÉT MOESIA LEGIOEMLÉKEINEK JELENTŐSÉGE ALSÓ-PANNONIA HADTÖRTÉNETÉBEN. A marcomann háborúk daciai vonatkozásaival foglalkozva, akaratlanul is ki kellene terjeszkednünk azokra a leletekre, melyek Alsó-Pannonia területén a két Moesia légióival megannyi kérdőjelként sorakoznak elénk s melyeknek értelmezése csakis Dacia rokon leleteivel kapcsolatosan kisérthető meg. Mielőtt tehát a bonyolultabbnak mutatkozó daciai emlékcsoport had- történeti magyarázatába fognánk, lássuk először is: liogy mikor s minő rendeltetéssel kerülhettek a Közép-Duna mellé a két Moesia helyőrségébe tartozó légiók eme képviselői ? A közfelfogás szerint a Krisztus után 106-ban kitört és tíz esztendőn keresztül szörnyűséges nyomort, pusztulást támasztó marcomann háborúk katonai mozgalmaival hozza nagy általános- ságban kapcsolatba ezeket a legioemlékeket, a nélkül azonban, hogy az időpontra nézve közelebbi meghatározásokkal rendel- keznénk. A marcomann háborúk kitörését pedig általában a parthusok ellen L. Verus társcsászár személyes vezénylete alatt részben a dunamelléki helyőrségből összeállított haderővel foly- tatott háború egyenes következményeinek minősíti a történet- írás.

  • Naming Effects in Lucretius' De Rerum Natura
    Antonomasia, Anonymity, and Atoms: Naming Effects in Lucretius’ DRN Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics Antonomasia, Anonymity, and Atoms: Naming Effects in Lucretius’ De rerum natura Version 1.0 September 2009 Wilson H. Shearin Stanford University Abstract: This essay argues that selected proper names within Lucretius’ De rerum natura, rather than pointing deictically or referring with clear historical specificity, instead render Lucretius’ poem vaguer and more anonymous. To make this case, the essay first briefly surveys Roman naming practices, ultimately focusing upon a specific kind of naming, deictic naming. Deictic naming points (or attempts to point) to a given entity and often conjures up a sense of the reality of that entity. The essay then studies the role of deictic naming within Epicureanism and the relationship of such naming to instances of naming within De rerum natura. Through analysis of the nominal disappearance of Memmius, the near nominal absence of Epicurus, and the deployment of Venus (and other names) within the conclusion to Lucretius’ fourth book, the essay demonstrates how selected personal names in De rerum natura, in contrast to the ideal of deictic naming, become more general, more anonymous, whether by the substitution of other terms (Memmius, Epicurus), by referential wandering (Venus), or by still other means. The conclusion briefly studies the political significance of this phenomenon, suggesting that there is a certain popular quality to the tendency towards nominal indefiniteness traced in the essay. © Wilson H.

  • Prosopografía De Los Tribunales De La Plebe Durante La República Arcaica
    PROSOPOGRAFÍA DE LOS TRIBUNOS DE LA PLEBE DURANTE LA REPÚBLICA ARCAICA (494-287 a.C.)* por L. SANCHO ROCHER Los siglos V y IV de la Roma republicana se caracterizan por el desa­ rrollo de lo que se denomina enfrentamiento patricio plebeyo y que conduce a la instauración del Estado republicano clásico. Es esta una etapa de consti­ tución paulatina de los elementos que activan la máquina de la República y en ella aparece un componente imprescindible de la misma, el tribuno de la plebe. Los tribunos son en principio, los representantes de un grupo social mar­ ginado de las tareas políticas y, cuya organización social y actividades econó­ micas aparecen como radicalmente distintas de los de la oligarquía patricia. La labor que desempeñan, sin embargo, conducirá a un sector de la plebe a la identificación casi total con parte del patriciado, haciendo que «plebe» ad­ quiera unas connotaciones distintas: los pobres, y los mismos tribunos de la plebe, funciones que abarcan el ámbito de la ciudad. El estudio prosopográfico de los tribunos que ejercieron su función entre el 494 y el 287 cobra importancia tanto en relación con la composición del orden social que dirigen como respecto a la extracción de la que procedían los que eran erigidos en defensores de la plebe. Por lo demás, los modernos estudios de prosopografía han logrado muchas veces esclarecer momentos os­ curos de la historia republicana. Existen precedentes de inestimable valor que deben ser utilizados como premisas en cualquier intento de este carácter. Las obras que a continuación señalaremos guardan cierta relación temática entre sí.

  • De Nominibus Epitome
    De nominibus epitome Iulius Paris 1. Varro simplicia in Italia nomina fuisse ait existimationisque suae argumentum refert, quod Romulus et Remus et Faustulus neque praenomen ullum neque cognomen habuerint. Qui ab eo dissentiunt aiunt matrem eorum Ream Silviam vocatam, avum Silvium Numitorem, fratrem eius Amulium Silvium, ac superiores Albanorum reges Capetum Silvium, Agrippam Silvium, posterioresque duces Mettium Fufetium et Tutorem Cloelium vocatos. Nec contenti his ad Sabinos transgrediuntur; Titum Tatium, Numam Pompilium et patrem eius Pompium Pompilium, eiusdemque regionis principes enumerant Pustulanum Lauranum, Volesum valesium, Mettum Curtium, Alium Fumusilleaticum. E Tuscis citant Lartem Porsennam, ab Aequiculis Septimum Modium, primum regem eorum, et fertorem Resium, qui ius fetiale constituit. In hunc modum Varronis sententia subruitur. 2. Romanos autem arbitrandum est maxime ab Albanis et Sabinis multiplicandorum nominum consetudinem traxisse, quoniam ab illis orti sunt. Omnia autem, quae ad unum quemque nostrum definiendum excogitata sunt, eandem vim significandi hominis obtinent. Quod proprie ita dicitur, hoc distat, quia eo gens cognoscitur, ideoque dicitur gentilicium. Cetera ordine variantur: nam quod praeponitur praenomen, quod post fertur cognomen, quod ad ultimum adicitur agnomen est. Quorum series non ita, ut exposui, semper servata est: animadverto enim in consulum fastis perplexum usum praenominum et cognominum fuisse. Dictum Postumum Cominium Aurundum et Postumum Aebutium Helvam et Vopiscum Iulium et Opitrem Verginium Tricostum et Paulum Fabium Maximum. Quin etiam quaedam cognomina in nomen versa sunt, ut Caepio: namque hoc in Bruto nominis locum obtinuit. 3. Gentilicia nomina Varro putat fuisse numero I, praenomina circa XXX. Pueris non prius quam togam virilem sumerent, puellis non ante quam nuberent praenomina imponi moris fuisse Q.
