  • Introduction: Medea in Greece and Rome
    INTRODUCTION: MEDEA IN GREECE AND ROME A J. Boyle maiusque mari Medea malum. Seneca Medea 362 And Medea, evil greater than the sea. Few mythic narratives of the ancient world are more famous than the story of the Colchian princess/sorceress who betrayed her father and family for love of a foreign adventurer and who, when abandoned for another woman, killed in revenge both her rival and her children. Many critics have observed the com­ plexities and contradictions of the Medea figure—naive princess, knowing witch, faithless and devoted daughter, frightened exile, marginalised alien, dis­ placed traitor to family and state, helper-màiden, abandoned wife, vengeful lover, caring and filicidal mother, loving and fratricidal sister, oriental 'other', barbarian saviour of Greece, rejuvenator of the bodies of animals and men, killer of kings and princesses, destroyer and restorer of kingdoms, poisonous stepmother, paradigm of beauty and horror, demi-goddess, subhuman monster, priestess of Hecate and granddaughter of the sun, bride of dead Achilles and ancestor of the Medes, rider of a serpent-drawn chariot in the sky—complex­ ities reflected in her story's fragmented and fragmenting history. That history has been much examined, but, though there are distinguished recent exceptions, comparatively little attention has been devoted to the specifically 'Roman' Medea—the Medea of the Republican tragedians, of Cicero, Varro Atacinus, Ovid, the younger Seneca, Valerius Flaccus, Hosidius Geta and Dracontius, and, beyond the literary field, the Medea of Roman painting and Roman sculp­ ture. Hence the present volume of Ramus, which aims to draw attention to the complex and fascinating use and abuse of this transcultural heroine in the Ro­ man intellectual and visual world.

  • Apollonius Rhodius Argonautica 4 and the Epic Gaze: There and Back Again
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Nottingham ePrints Helen Lovatt Apollonius Rhodius Argonautica 4 and the epic gaze: There and back again The visuality of Apollonius Argonautica is complex and fascinating, and impor- tant for understanding that of later Greek and Roman epic.1 The Argonautica features in The Epic Gaze as the epic that wouldn’t, a refusenik of the epic genre, a counterexample.2 This chapter explores the particular visuality of Apollonius in more depth, by focusing on book 4 and its continuities and diver- gences from the previous books.3 William Thalmann, using the poetics of space, produces a reading of the Argonauts as a force for order, a representa- tion of Greekness, closely interlinked with Greek colonisation.4 Although he is careful to bring out the negatives, the difficulties and the confusions, this is an unusually positive reading of the Argonautica, rather in the same vein as Tim Stover’s reading of Valerius Flaccus.5 Space and visuality are closely relat- ed, and Thalmann illuminates processes of gazing in Apollonius, partly draw- ing on, or parallelling, the work of Alex Purves.6 In contrast Sistakou’s evoca- tion of the Argonautica as “dark epic” calls up a different visuality, one centred on darkness, fantasy and horror.7 In this chapter I re-examine gaze and vision in Apollonius by thinking about the difference between the explorers’ gaze and 1 See also Kampakoglou, this volume.

  • FHS Poem of the Day: Martial Epigrams 7.19
    FHS Poem of the Day: Martial Epigrams 7.19 Today I’d like to share my favourite poem by one of my favourite poets, Martial. You can find the poem Latin on the left and with my own English translation on the right. fragmentum quod vile putas et inutile lignum, A fragment which you would think a cheap and useless plank, haec fuit ignoti prima carina maris. This was the first keel on the unknown sea. quam nec Cyaneae quondam potuere ruinae What neither the Cyanean ruin [the Clashing Rocks] nor the more sullen frangere nec Scythici tristior ira freti. Wrath of the Scythian sea could shatter long ago, saecula vicerunt: sed quamvis cesserit annis, The ages have conquered: yet, although it has fallen to the years, sanctior est salva parva tabella rate. The small tablet is more hallowed than the ship unharmed. Marcus Valerius Martialis wrote over 1,500 epigrams (short, sharp and often witty poems) at the end of the first century AD. Originally from Bilbilis (near modern Catalyud) in Spain, Martial travelled to Rome in his youth to practice his poetry, which frequently scrutinised, insulted and/or flattered his contemporary Romans. He is widely considered to be the inventor of the modern epigram. Amongst other things, Martial was a mover and shaker in ancient Rome – he writes poems to several notable individuals including the emperors Titus, Vespasian and Trajan and the letter-writer Pliny the Younger (who recorded the events of the eruption of Mt Vesuvius in AD 79). Thus he was very well- connected to the authors of his own age, which is particularly relevant for today’s poem.

  • Masking Epic: Bacchic Imagery in Valerius Flaccus’ Argonautica
    Masking Epic: Bacchic Imagery in Valerius Flaccus’ Argonautica The Argonautica of Valerius Flaccus begins with the promise of immortality: fatidicamque ratem…quae/…flammifero tandem consedit Olympo (Argo.1.2-5). By opening the seas, the Argo and its crew will achieve star status, a place among the gods and in the epic canon. In the face of this challenge, Jupiter’s exhortation to his sons – Hercules, Castor, and Pollux – reinforces the centrality of labor to the pursuit of glory: tendite in astra, viri…./…sic ecce meus, sic orbe peracto/ Liber et expertus remeavit Apollo (Argo.1.563-7). As a demigod, Bacchus, in particular, represents a specific type of heroic profile: epic achievements that win everlasting fame, a model neatly tailored to the Argonauts’ self-perception and their author’s ambitions to literary immortality. Bacchus also, however, brings with him the potential to divert the Argonauts’ storyline away from its epic triumph. Through a brief survey of Bacchus’ role in the Argonautica, this paper explores Valerius’ thematic use of Bacchic images to illustrate the tragic potential inherent in the Argonauts’ epic journey to the East. For the crew, Bacchus functions as a military exemplar, returning in triumph from the conquest of the East (Argo.1.563-7, 3.538-40, 6.137-40); Jason himself compares his mission to Bacchus’ (Argo.5.495-7). As a demigod who wins apotheosis through a civilizing journey, Bacchus represents the path to epic triumph that the Argonauts hope to follow. The Argonauts see only his militaristic aspect, without taking into account the alternative blueprint he also represents, and their narrator would also prefer to stay on a martial track.

  • ANIMALS and ANIMAL-HUMAN DYNAMICS in VALERIUS FLACCUS' ARGONAUTICA
    1 ANIMALS and ANIMAL-HUMAN DYNAMICS in VALERIUS FLACCUS’ ARGONAUTICA. Anne Tuttle Mackay University College London Ph.D., Greek & Latin 2 3 Declaration. I, Anne Tuttle Mackay, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 4 5 Abstract: Animals and Animal-Human Dynamics in Valerius Flaccus’ Argonautica. Animals have come into their own as subjects for research across the Humanities, and recent work focuses on animals in classical culture, animal imagery in different literary genres, and even animal empathy in Greek literature. My thesis, however, is among the first sustained studies on animals—their representation, poetic function, and interactions with humans—in a single work. The study is backgrounded by research on the Argonautica itself; animal similes; the cultural significance of animals in Rome; and representations and development of animal subjectivity in Latin literature. I analyze a significant proportion of VF’s animals in diverse contexts, and divide the thesis based on those contexts. I first look at similes, for example, like those which highlight the individual experience and development of birds, and those which explore the relationship between epic tradition and portrayals of animals like lions. Animals interacting with humans in the narrative feature in the second half, as victims of human violence—e.g. a sacrificial bull—or as companions and partners, like war-dogs and -horses. My methodology blends several approaches, examining animals and their relationships with humans, via intertextual and narratological analysis and aspects of empathy, reception, and (occasionally) a wary, self-conscious anthropocentrism.

  • The Fault Was in Their Stars: Evil, Forewarning, and the Ekpyrosis in Valerius Flaccus’
    The Fault was in their Stars: Evil, Forewarning, and the Ekpyrosis in Valerius Flaccus’ Argonautica In this paper I examine the relationship between the nature of evil and astral justice in Valerius Flaccus’ Argonautica. The presence of evil in the world of the Argonauts is undeniable, but it is not limited to the wicked actions of their foes, I argue that it is an incipient force about to engulf their whole mythic universe. Valerius characterizes evil in the poem as cosmic by setting his version of the myth well into the Iron Age. In Apollonius’ Argonautica, which Valerius is clearly reworking, the Gigantomachia is a recent event, the Argo is not the first ship, and the final fall of Troy, traditionally understood as the event that ushers in the Iron Age, is at least a generation away. Valerius, however, follows the Roman tradition that identifies the Argo as the first ship that heralds the Iron Age. I argue that Valerius connects the mythological Ages of Man to the Stoic cycle of creation and destruction so that the voyage of the Argo is set right before the ekpyrosis. Important to Valerius’ construction of evil as cosmic is the Stoic notion that human society is directly bound with the fate of nature. Additionally, Valerius expresses the Stoic notion of forewarning through natural phenomena. In particular, I examine the forewarnings of the heavenly bodies and contend that the references to the constellation Virgo, the Pleiades, and the star Sirius all predict the destruction of the world, perhaps even brought on by the voyage.

I approach this broad topic primarily from the angle of mythological variation— that is, the competing and sometimes contradictory versions of individual myths which are an inherent component of the Greek and Roman mythological system. In Greece, myths and their variants played an important role in interfacing religion with politics. Through three “case studies” on the works of Ovid and Valerius Flaccus, I demonstrate different ways in which Roman poets, too, could utilize the pluralities of the tradition for their own poetic and political ends.

    EXEMPLARIA CLASSICA Journal of Classical Philology 23, 2019, xx-xx ISSN 1699-3225 DIALOGUES BETWEEN GENRES. THE SELF-AWARENESS OF FLAVIAN LITERATURE1* CECILIA CRIADO University of Santiago de Compostela [email protected] This volume is a collection of papers presented at the conference I generi letterari nell’età dei Flavi. Canoni, trasformazioni, ricezione, held in Turin, September 2013. As is inevitably the case with collective books in which studies delivered at meetings of researchers are published, the volume suffers from a certain imbalance; papers on the epic genre practically equal in number those devoted to other genres (literary history, encyclopaedism, oratory, epigram and occasional poetry). As Federica Bessone and Marco Fucecchi point out in the Introduction, the aim of this book is not to offer theoretical redefinitions of the concept of ‘genre’ but to show the complex interrelations that the Flavian poets establish between the genres consecrated by their predecessors. Many of the contributions herein give ample space to immanent literary history. This is logical, in the sense that literary self-consciousness is a prototypical feature of the Flavian authors. They proudly recognise the scope of their innovations and their ability to confer the status of high literature on the new genres that they create or recreate; and, above all, they are aware of their mastery in putting polyeideia and uarietas into practice. All this means that, in the Flavian age, the boundaries between genres are blurred to an unprecedented extent. Yet it is also the reason why Flavian authors adopt a constant self-positioning towards previous and contemporary Greek and Roman production and, hence, through their explicit or oblique literary statements, that they are reliable spokespersons of an immanent approach to the history of Greco-Roman literature.
