Diverse peoples acquired economic and political hegemony, they imposed laws, customs and artistic models which merged with pre-existing backgrounds and styles which then expanded throughout Northern European and African countries. Ideas from the East, such as science, religion and artistic models, fil- tered throughout the Mediterranean. Nomadic populations reached Mediterranean shores and so cultures and customs were brought to- gether for several centuries in a relatively small circle. It was on the edges of the Mediterranean where the two fundamental ideas of gar- den design, the formal and the informal, were created and confronted each other. Here, the garden became the idealization of a perfect and immutable world, the mimesis of nature.

  • Aphrodite on a Ladder

    Aphrodite on a Ladder

    APHRODITE ON A LADDER (PLATES 17-19) N JULY OF 1981, in Byzantinelevels above and west of what was soonto be identified as the Stoa Poikile, the excavatorsof the Athenian Agora found two joining fragmentsof a Classical votive relief (P1. 17:a).1 The relief is framed by simple moldings: taenia and ovolo at top and a plain band at the right side. In the pictorial field is preservedthe head of a young woman carved in low relief. She gazes down to the left at a vessel raised in her right hand. Her head is coveredby a short veil. Above and behind the veil are two rungs and the vertical supports of a ladder whose upper end disappearsbehind the frame. Although frag- mentary and weathered, the relief provides a precious document for the study of Classical relief sculpture, and its unusual iconographygives a valuable clue to the identity of one of the deities worshiped in the area. Most of the figure'sprofile is broken away, but the carefully carvedlines of the lips and eye show that the sculptor took pains to give her delicate features. Her hair, where it ap- pears below the veil, is mostly worn away. Along the side of her face appear waves of hair with a scallopedcontour. No trace of her ear is preserved.It was either very small or hidden beneath her hair. Folds of the veil cross her head in bifurcating linear patterns of rounded ridges. Below her hair two folds fall down along her neck, while others, from the hidden right side of her head, blow out behind in sweeping curves.

    Designing Women: Aristophanes' Lysistrata

    Aristophanes’ Lysistrata 37 DESIGNING WOMEN: ARISTOPHANES’ LYSISTRATA AND THE “HETAIRIZATION” OF THE GREEK WIFE* SARAH CULPEPPER STROUP INTRODUCTION Aristophanes’ Lysistrata is a comedy of political and sexual negotiation and of what happens when complementary but distinct spheres of social interaction—the polis and the oikos, the public and the private—are torn apart and turned inside-out by protracted and seemingly ineluctable warfare. Produced, most probably, at the Lenaia of 411,1 this unusually topical drama offers an alluring reversal of the more standard comic representation of female sexuality as implicitly destructive to the civic body, forging in its place a fantasy world in which strictly proscribed sexual negotiation might * Various drafts of this article have benefited greatly from the criticisms and advice of numerous readers. I am indebted to, among others, Ruby Blondell, Mary LeBlanc, and two especially helpful anonymous readers for Arethusa. Thanks are due also to Jeffrey Henderson and Christopher Faraone, who forwarded to me manuscript versions of their own work on the topic, and to Andrew Stewart and Christopher Hallet, for their generous help with my use of the visual material. Any errors that remain are my own and should not be credited to my kind and conscientious readers. 1 A secure dating for this drama is difficult. As Henderson 1987.xv–xviii argues, however, the internal evidence of the play—the attitudes, assumptions, and arguments of the characters—in addition to the evidence given in the eighth book of Thukydides (though admittedly problematic in chronology at some places) will support a date of 411. For fuller discussions of dating, see Sommerstein 1977 and Westlake 1980.

    Production at Doccia Between 1790 -1847 and Royal Commissions for the Lucca Palaces

    PRODUCTION AT DOCCIA BETWEEN 1790 -1847 AND ROYAL COMMISSIONS FOR THE LUCCA PALACES By Atidrcina d’Agliano Production at the Doccia manufactory in the last decade of the 18th century was particularly influ­ enced by the taste for the antique, which affected the development of the Tuscan manufactory in two principal directions. On the one hand there was the influence of the taste for classical ruins introduced through prints by French artists working in Rome in the circle of Piranesi1, and on the other hand the archaeological discoveries made in Naples, and the dynastic links between the Neapolitan and the Florentine courts, which added extensive Neapolitan iconographical sources to the Doccia repertoire2. In 1785, the extremely good relationship between the Marchesi Ginori and the Neapolitan sovereigns inspired Ferdinand IV of Naples to send Lorenzo Ginori the first two volumes of the most valuable publication to be printed in Naples, Le Antichitd di Ercolano esposte. This was a collection of prints repre­ senting the frescoes and statues brought to light during the archaeological excavations at Hercula­ Figure 2.

    Women in Aristophanes' Lysistrata

    Courtesans Reconsidered: Women in Aristophanes’ Lysistrata LAURA MCCLURE University of Wisconsin [email protected] Scholarship on Aristophanes’ Lysistrata over the last three decades has almost without exception supported the view that the play models its portrayal of the sex-striking wives on hetaeras. Henderson first proposed that the teasing delay tactics of Myrrhine in the seduction scene resemble those of a courtesan1. He subsequently hypothesizes that the play, with its emphasis on female bibulousness, sexual appetites, adornment and depilation, may have been based on the hetaera comedy of Pherecrates2. 1 — Henderson 1987: 177 concludes that her «skillful wheedling, teasing, and coquettishness were surely more characteristic of hetairai than of wives» and further views Cinesias as «a customer bargaining with a bawd for a girl’s services». He believes the original audience would have identified the scene as such due to their familiarity with courtesans. However, Dover 1972: 160 observes that the play conspicuously avoids any mention of non-marital sex, while Stroup 2003: 42 remarks, “it is worth noting that neither the word hetaira, nor indeed the word for any other ‘formally recognized’ sex worker (pornê, aulêtris) appears in this comedy”. I gratefully acknowledge the thoughtful comments of the two anonymous readers which lead to a much improved version of the paper. The Greek text throughout is taken from Henderson’s 1987 edition of the play. 2 — In attempting to explain the origins of the female comic characters in this play, Henderson hypothesizes the hetaera comedy as a prototype and further expands on his view of the young wives as hetaeras, stating «certainly his characterization of the young wives is much closer to the comic EuGeStA - n°5 - 2015 COURTESANS RECONSIDERED 55 Stroup further describes the women as «pseudo-hetaerai» based on the play’s «vivid sympotic imagery and sexual innuendo» (Stroup 2004: 41).
