  • Theosophic Study by Roy Mitchell Theosophic Study
    Theosophic Study by Roy Mitchell Theosophic Study by Roy Mitchell Document Initially published by The Blavatsky Institute, Toronto FOREWORD "All occult study is based on the fact that when one asks a question, he creates in mind a vortex into which ideas swirl." This sentence contains the seed idea of the series of articles, Theosophic Study, by Roy Mitchell which have been collected in this booklet. It is a book of practical guidance for working students and will be of special interest to those students of Theosophy who have passed through the stage of the first enthusiasm which results from early contact with Theosophical ideas, and are now desirous of selecting their own way across the many fascinating fields of investigation which open up before the serious student. There does come a time when desultory reading, dipping into this and that aspect of the Ancient Wisdom, no longer satisfies. The student undergoes a change in mental polarity. He no longer wishes to read in order to absorb the ideas and thoughts of other persons; he desires to pursue a particular line of study for himself, to collect data, to work over the information he gathers, and to formulate his own ideas. This, of course, is as it should be; each student is required to make his own way 'by self-induced and self-devised efforts'. Mr. Mitchell, from his wide experience as a working student, offers many practical suggestions for systematizing one's efforts and projecting the work in such a manner that ideas are consolidated and that from each consolidation, new avenues of enquiry are opened.

  • Stoics and Epicureans for the 'Modern Market': How Athenian Educators Re-Tooled the Old City’S 'Modernist Schools' for Republican Rome
    Athens Journal of History - Volume 3, Issue 4 – Pages 265-274 Stoics and Epicureans for the 'Modern Market': How Athenian Educators Re-Tooled the Old City’s 'Modernist Schools' for Republican Rome. One of a Trilogy of Studies in the Marketing of Athenian Education to a 'newer' Ancient World By David P. Wick After the crisis caused when Rome expelled Greek thinkers and teachers in 161 of the old era, the momentum Athens still held a destination for students from the Mediterranean west, and Rome in particular, lay mostly with the old schools whose names everyone recognized. It was the two more "modernist" schools of Athens - the self-defined scientists and life-gurus of the Epicurean "Garden" and the anthropology-driven philosophers and political thinkers of the Stoa that were most vulnerable to this assault. Today, we remember almost all the great leaders and thinkers of the late Roman Republic and the "Principate" empire it would rapidly become as Stoics, but it was the Epicurean "Garden" that began the last decades of the Republic both notorious and fashionable. Though Epicurus himself had argued that in stressful times like these the true study was of ways to harmonize or cure angst in the human soul, 1st Century Epicurean teachers split, teaching a spiritual science of contemplation and retreat, or chasing a sort of scientific, audience-based media expertise for power-hungry students. Modern classicists may associate the Stoic school with images of retired contemplation, harmony, even mysticism, but Romans of the Late Republic expected the Stoa to retail "no nonsense" political and anthropological expertise.

Beholding the scene are Lucretia’s father and husband, along with Lucius Junius Brutus. After this event, Brutus would lead Rome to exile the Tarquin tyrants and to found the Roman Republic, becoming one of its first two consuls. For the Lucretia story, see Livy 1.58. For other treatments of Lucretia’s death, see Augustine, City of God (book 1, chapters 16–20), and Shakespeare’s The Rape of Lucrece. In his “argument” before the poem, Shakespeare explains the significance of what followed Lucretia’s death for Rome: “With one consent they all vowed to root out the whole hated family of the Tarquins; and bearing the dead body to Rome, Brutus acquainted the people with the doer and manner of the vile deed, with a bit- ter invective against the tyranny of the King: wherewith the people were so moved, that with one consent and a general acclamation the Tarquins were all exiled, and the state government changed from kings to consuls.” On consuls, see More’s Epigram 198, pp. 113–14. ii c OncernIng The beST STATe Of A cOmmOnWeAlTh and the new island of Utopia, a truly golden handbook, no less beneficial than entertaining by the most distinguished and eloquent man T hOmAS mOre, citizen and sheriff of the famous city of London — —— ——— — ePIgrAmS of the very famous and very learned man T hOmAS mOre, in large part translated from the Greek ii iii cOnTents Paratexts 1* Letter of Erasmus to John Froben .

  • Divine Man of Cynicism in Late Antiquity
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Jagiellonian Univeristy Repository Divine Men and Women in the History and Society of Late Hellenism Cracow 2013 Andrzej Iwo Szoka Jagiellonian University SALUSTIOS — Divine Man of CYNICISM IN LATE ANTIQUITY In the reconstructed Philosophical History of Damacius, which is our main source of repainting the circle of late platonic philosophers and their world in the 5th and early 6th century, the author mentioned Salustios of Emesa. In a few places Damas‑ cius gave this person the name of Cynic. He said: “His [Salustios’] philosophy was along the lines of Cynicism” (kunikèteron dќ ™filosТfei), and in another passage: “As a Cynic philosopher Salustios (Ὁ Saloύstioj kun…zwn) did not follow the well ‑trodden path of philosophy, but the one made jagged through criticism and abuse and especially through toil in the service of virtue1. According to his opinion, in the modern historiography Salustios is called the last Cynic philosopher of the antiquity, the last heir of philosophy and spiritual movement which was founded by the famous Diogenes of Sinope in the fourth century BC. He was not only the last one, but also the only Cynic philosopher known by name after 4th century who is described by sources. In the times of the Roman Empire cynicism was a vital philosophy, but also it be‑ came the widespread social movement which Giovanni Reale named the Phenomena of the Masses2. On the one hand, we have the Cynicism of well ‑educated philosophers like Demetrius — a friend of Seneca, or Dio of Prusa.

  • Reaves Dissertation FINAL Submission II
    Gnosis, Witness, and Early Christian Identities: The “True” Martyr in Clement of Alexandria and Gnostic Traditions Pamela Mullins Reaves A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Religious Studies Chapel Hill 2013 Approved by: Elizabeth A. Clark Bart D. Ehrman David Lambert Zlatko Plese Randall G. Styers Abstract PAMELA MULLINS REAVES: Gnosis, Witness, and Early Christian Identities: The “True” Martyr in Clement of Alexandria and Gnostic Traditions (Under the direction of Dr. Bart D. Ehrman) This project examines three early Christian texts that reflect diverse approaches to suffering and martyrdom in the late second and early third centuries—Clement of Alexandria’s Stromateis, Book IV; the Coptic Apocalypse of Peter (NHC VII,3); and the Testimony of Truth (NHC IX,3). These texts question the value of suffering and construct distinctive means of “witnessing” Christ, which do not prioritize or promote a suffering death. Seeking a basis for these perspectives, this project considers the Christological views of each author as well as evidence for emerging, diverse Christian identities in the texts. In all cases, Christ reveals the proper path for the “true” Christian, but suffering is not central to it; his own distance from suffering confirms this. Limiting the significance of his death, each author emphasizes Christ’s instruction, centered on individual progress toward gnosis. Strom. and Testim. Truth, specifically, promote control of the passions as a central aspect of the development of the Christian self.

  • The Ecclesiastical History of Eusebius of Caesarea by David John Devore A
    Greek Historiography, Roman Society, Christian Empire: The Ecclesiastical History of Eusebius of Caesarea By David John DeVore A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Susanna K. Elm, Chair Professor A.A. Long Professor J. Rebecca Lyman Professor Carlos F. Noreña Spring 2013 1 Abstract Greek Historiography, Roman Society, Christian Empire: the Ecclesiastical History of Eusebius of Caesarea by David John DeVore Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology University of California, Berkeley Professor Susanna Elm, Chair “Greek Historiography, Roman Society, Christian Empire: the Ecclesiastical History of Eusebius of Caesarea” addresses a major shift in Roman social, political, and religious history at the pivotal turn of the fourth century AD. When Christianity was legalized in 313, the Christian church of the eastern Roman Empire, where the pagan Licinius ruled as emperor until the Christian Constantine defeated him in 324, remained in an insecure position. The Greek- speaking eastern Roman elite of this period only admitted outsiders to their circles who displayed a civilized manner of life inculcated in the elite Greek educational curriculum (paideia), the kind of life embodied by Greek philosophers. It was, I argue, to depict this newly legalized Christianity as the models of the philosophical life that Eusebius of Caesarea wrote the first history of the church in the 310s AD. Whereas Eusebius’ Ecclesiastical History is usually studied for its intra-Christian discourse, this study considers the History as a Greek text aimed at Roman elites.

  • Arguments for Marriage in Clement of Alexandria's Stromateis II–III
    Graeco-Latina Brunensia 21 / 2016 / 2 DOI: 10.5817/GLB2016-2-18 Arguments for Marriage in Clement of Alexandria’s Stromateis II–III Jana Plátová (Palacký University, Olomouc)* Abstract This article analyses Clement of Alexandria’s treatment of authorities in his treatise on mar- ČLÁNKY / ARTICLES riage (Strom. II, 23, 137, 1 – III, 18, 110, 3). It shows that Clement widely quotes not only biblical authorities, but also classical authors; in his practical theology he puts great emphasis pri- marily on Paul the Apostle, Plato, and Aristotle. The article includes an overview of all of the sources (direct quotes, paraphrases, allusions) that Clement uses in his interpretation and also presents the treatise as a significant source of a large amount of fragments of both classical and early Christian literature. Keywords Clement of Alexandria; techniques of quotation; Clement’s Stromateis as source of fragments; patristic exegesis of Scripture; sexual ethics; marriage; self-control (enkrateia); heterodox Christians of 2nd and 3th century παῖδες δὲ ἀνδρὶ κατθανόντι κληδόνες γεγάασι. φελλοὶ δ̓ ὣς ἄγουσι δίκτυον, τὸν ἐκ βυθοῦ καὶ κλωστῆρα σῴζοντες λίνου… (Aeschylus, Choeph. 505–507 in: Clement of Alexandria, Strom. II, 23, 141, 3)1 A discourse on the Christian virtues in the Clement’s Stromateis serves as a platform for his thoughts on the usefulness of marriage. Love is, according to Clement, a virtue through which Christians get closer to God, their Creator; thus, it stands on the top of his pyramid of virtues. This love, a reflection of God’s love towards men, is not moti- vated by fear or desire to get favour; it is free from any ulterior motives.
