  • Eunuchs in the East, Men in the West? 147
    Eunuchs in the East, Men in the West? 147 Chapter 8 Eunuchs in the East, Men in the West? Dis/unity, Gender and Orientalism in the Fourth Century Shaun Tougher Introduction In the narrative of relations between East and West in the Roman Empire in the fourth century AD, the tensions between the eastern and western imperial courts at the end of the century loom large. The decision of Theodosius I to “split” the empire between his young sons Arcadius and Honorius (the teenage Arcadius in the east and the ten-year-old Honorius in the west) ushered in a period of intense hostility and competition between the courts, famously fo- cused on the figure of Stilicho.1 Stilicho, half-Vandal general and son-in-law of Theodosius I (Stilicho was married to Serena, Theodosius’ niece and adopted daughter), had been left as guardian of Honorius, but claimed guardianship of Arcadius too and concomitant authority over the east. In the political manoeu- vrings which followed the death of Theodosius I in 395, Stilicho was branded a public enemy by the eastern court. In the war of words between east and west a key figure was the (probably Alexandrian) poet Claudian, who acted as a ‘pro- pagandist’ (through panegyric and invective) for the western court, or rather Stilicho. Famously, Claudian wrote invectives on leading officials at the eastern court, namely Rufinus the praetorian prefect and Eutropius, the grand cham- berlain (praepositus sacri cubiculi), who was a eunuch. It is Claudian’s two at- tacks on Eutropius that are the inspiration and central focus of this paper which will examine the significance of the figure of the eunuch for the topic of the end of unity between east and west in the Roman Empire.

Tijdschrift over het Midden-Oosten, Noord-Afrika en islam. Abstract Recent historiography has demonstrated how Istanbul became part of a European media landscape in the seventeenth century. This article argues that European coun- tries not only targeted the Ottoman Porte but also tried to reach Arabic-speaking audiences in other major Ottoman cities, such as Aleppo. It does so through an anal- ysis of a remarkable source, an Arabic manuscript pamphlet written by a Frenchman in Aleppo in January 1673, which tells the story of the exploits of Louis xiv in the Dutch Republic during the Year of Disaster.

  • Emperors and Generals in the Fourth Century Doug Lee Roman
    Emperors and Generals in the Fourth Century Doug Lee Roman emperors had always been conscious of the political power of the military establishment. In his well-known assessment of the secrets of Augustus’ success, Tacitus observed that he had “won over the soldiers with gifts”,1 while Septimius Severus is famously reported to have advised his sons to “be harmonious, enrich the soldiers, and despise the rest”.2 Since both men had gained power after fiercely contested periods of civil war, it is hardly surprising that they were mindful of the importance of conciliating this particular constituency. Emperors’ awareness of this can only have been intensified by the prolonged and repeated incidence of civil war during the mid third century, as well as by emperors themselves increasingly coming from military backgrounds during this period. At the same time, the sheer frequency with which armies were able to make and unmake emperors in the mid third century must have served to reinforce soldiers’ sense of their potential to influence the empire’s affairs and extract concessions from emperors. The stage was thus set for a fourth century in which the stakes were high in relations between emperors and the military, with a distinct risk that, if those relations were not handled judiciously, the empire might fragment, as it almost did in the 260s and 270s. 1 Tac. Ann. 1.2. 2 Cass. Dio 76.15.2. Just as emperors of earlier centuries had taken care to conciliate the rank and file by various means,3 so too fourth-century emperors deployed a range of measures designed to win and retain the loyalties of the soldiery.

  • Was a Text of the Ordo Urbium Nobilium Quite Unli
    SOME MANUSCRIPTS OF AUSONIUS When Ferrarius prepared the second edition of Ausonius (Mediol. 1490), his one supplement to the works printed by Girardinus in the first (Ven. 1472) was a text of the Ordo Urbium Nobilium quite unli- ke what stands in modern editions: not only does it omit some sections and alter the order of others, but it presents the long sections on Nar- bonne and Bordeaux incomplete and largely in prose. According to Fer- rarius, Georgius Merula found these excerpta,ashe calls them, in the li- brary of St Eustorgius, Milan. A later hand also added them to T, Leid. Voss. Lat. Q 107 (chart. xv), which editon regard as the best manuscript of the family that produced the ed. Ven. 1472 (l). Hence a rash identi- fication of T with Merula's Eustorgianus (2). ln 1908 Sabbadini showed that at some date before l3l0 Benzo of Alessandria found in the chapter library at Verona a manuscript that contained the Ordo and the Ludus'Septem Sapientum (3). Lo and be- hold, Benzo's quotations from the Ordo agreed with Ferrarius's text, prose and all (4). Hence much discussion of the relationship between the Veronensis and the Eustorgianus (5). The Eustorgianus still exists. Arrange Benzo's quotations not in the traditional order of sections, as Sabbadini did, but in the order of Sab- (1) Whether it deserves this reputation will be the subject of a laler article;but A. Pastorino, Opere diDecimoMagnoAusonio, Torino 1971,2O34, isobviouslyska- ting on thin ice when he treats T as the lone representative in the Ordo oî a family that it represents with about twenty other manuscripts elsewhere.

  • 1 the Best of the Macedonians
    The Best of the Macedonians: Alexander as Achilles in Curtius’ History of Alexander Traditionally, Quintus Curtius Rufus’ History of Alexander, the main Latin source for the reign of Alexander the Great, has been studied primarily from a historical perspective, with the majority of scholarship being devoted to the historian’s date and sources (e.g., Dosson 1887, Tarn 1948, Atkinson 1980, Hammond 1983). More recently, however, scholars have become increasingly aware that Curtius’ work, like all ancient historiography, contains a marked literary dimension as well, and, as a result, have begun to study the work from a more literary perspective (e.g., Currie 1990, Baynham 1998, Spencer 2002). Following in this growing tradition of literary scholarship on Curtius, I seek in this paper to shed light on one particular aspect of Curtius’ complex, but underappreciated, literary design: his portrayal of Alexander as a second Achilles. While based on historical fact, Curtius’ depiction of Alexander as Achilles serves, I argue, a particular literary purpose, namely, to highlight the dark side of Alexander’s character—his ira and his vis—and, thereby, to reinforce the central moralizing theme of the work as a whole. In the first section, I present the case for Curtius’ depiction of Alexander as Achilles. To begin with, I consider the passages where Curtius makes the Alexander-Achilles connection explicit: (i.) Alexander at the siege of Gaza, where Curtius compares Alexander’ act of dragging Betis’ body around Gaza to Achilles’ act of dragging Hector’s body around Troy (Curt. 4.6.29); (ii.)

The introduction is followed by four different translations: translation of a text about tourism where Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, is described, translation of an article about literature from a monthly magazine, translation of a text describing how much money Croatia earns from foreign productions and translation of an article about breweries in Prague.
