  • Seriously Playful: Philosophy in the Myths of Ovid's Metamorphoses
    Seriously Playful: Philosophy in the Myths of Ovid’s Metamorphoses Megan Beasley, B.A. (Hons) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Classics of The University of Western Australia School of Humanities Discipline of Classics and Ancient History 2012 1 2 For my parents 3 4 Abstract This thesis aims to lay to rest arguments about whether Ovid is or is not a philosophical poet in the Metamorphoses. It does so by differentiating between philosophical poets and poetic philosophers; the former write poetry freighted with philosophical discourse while the latter write philosophy in a poetic medium. Ovid, it is argued, should be categorised as a philosophical poet, who infuses philosophical ideas from various schools into the Metamorphoses, producing a poem that, all told, neither expounds nor attacks any given philosophical school, but rather uses philosophy to imbue its constituent myths with greater wit, poignancy and psychological realism. Myth and philosophy are interwoven so intricately that it is impossible to separate them without doing violence to Ovid’s poem. It is not argued here that the Metamorphoses is a fundamentally serious poem which is enhanced, or marred, by occasional playfulness. Nor is it argued that the poem is fundamentally playful with occasional moments of dignity and high seriousness. Rather, the approach taken here assumes that seriousness and playfulness are so closely connected in the Metamorphoses that they are in fact the same thing. Four major myths from the Metamorphoses are studied here, from structurally significant points in the poem. The “Cosmogony” and the “Speech of Pythagoras” at the beginning and end of the poem have long been recognised as drawing on philosophy, and discussion of these two myths forms the beginning and end of the thesis.

Samuel CHRONOLOGICAL SUMMARY I. The pre-ministry of Samuel—A boy in the tabernacle A. Hannah was his mother. 1. Her prayer for her son a. Samuel was born as a result of God’s answering Hannah’s prayer and touching her barren womb (1 Sam. 1:2, 19, 20). b. He was promised to the Lord even before his birth (1 Sam. 1:10-12). c. He became the second of two famous Old Testament Nazarites. Samson was the first (Judg. 13:7, 13-14; 1 Sam. 1:11). 2. Her presentation of her son—After he was weaned, Hannah dedicated him in the tabernacle (1Sam. 1:23-28). B. Eli was his mentor. 1. He then was raised for God’s service by the old priest Eli in the tabernacle (1 Sam. 2:11, 18, 21).

    Lucan’s Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2014 Reading Committee: Catherine Connors, Chair Alain Gowing Stephen Hinds Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Classics © Copyright 2014 Laura Zientek University of Washington Abstract Lucan’s Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Catherine Connors Department of Classics This dissertation is an analysis of the role of landscape and the natural world in Lucan’s Bellum Civile. I investigate digressions and excurses on mountains, rivers, and certain myths associated aetiologically with the land, and demonstrate how Stoic physics and cosmology – in particular the concepts of cosmic (dis)order, collapse, and conflagration – play a role in the way Lucan writes about the landscape in the context of a civil war poem. Building on previous analyses of the Bellum Civile that provide background on its literary context (Ahl, 1976), on Lucan’s poetic technique (Masters, 1992), and on landscape in Roman literature (Spencer, 2010), I approach Lucan’s depiction of the natural world by focusing on the mutual effect of humanity and landscape on each other. Thus, hardships posed by the land against characters like Caesar and Cato, gloomy and threatening atmospheres, and dangerous or unusual weather phenomena all have places in my study. I also explore how Lucan’s landscapes engage with the tropes of the locus amoenus or horridus (Schiesaro, 2006) and elements of the sublime (Day, 2013).

  • Elkanah 1 Samuel 1-2 by Bob Young
    Elkanah 1 Samuel 1-2 By Bob Young Introduction 1 Samuel 1—with Samuel as the lead character, on our way to David. Samuel becomes the foremost leader of Israel after Moses/Joshua and before David. Samuel is the bearer of God’s word (3:19-21), the administrator of justice (7:17), and is responsible for much of the life of Israel. As we come to this chapter, it is clear that we must not hurry to David. The narrative of Samuel’s birth and youth (ch. 1-3) is a single literary unit. Analyzing this section, we see at the center the Song of Hannah [1:1-28; 2:1-10; 2:11-4:1a]. Every assertion from Samuel’s birth (1:3-28) to the dream theophany (3:1-10) to the authorization of Samuel (3:19- 21) shows Yahweh at the center of Israel. All are creatures of God’s sovereignty and agents of God’s future. As we begin the book, Israel is waiting, a marginal community, marginalized by the power and pressure of the Philistines, politically weak, economically disadvantaged. There is also a moral and theological dimension to Israel’s problems--moral chaos (cf. end of Judges), undisciplined religion, brutality. To solve this problem, we move behind the great men, and locate the origin of Israel’s future and the source of its “great leaders” in the family of Elkanah, specifically in noting a bereft, barren wife named Hannah. This is an Ephraimite family, a solid pedigree, but the mother is barren with no prospect of children.

  • Texts: Malachi 3:1-4; Luke 1:68-79; Philippians 1:3-11; Luke3:1-6
    Texts: Malachi 3:1-4; Luke 1:68-79; Philippians 1:3-11; Luke3:1-6 Advent begins new year in the church and for most of the coming year we are going to read the gospel of Luke. Beginnings are important, and Luke begins with the story of the angel Gabriel foretelling the amazing birth of a baby boy, who is destined for great things in the story of salvation. This birth is remarkable not because the boy’s mother is a virgin, but because she is old. She is Elizabeth, the wife of Zechariah, a priest in the temple. Hers is a story that we find throughout the Bible – the story of a woman who thought that she could not have a child, but who then finds out that she will give birth to a very special son. The story of Elizabeth and Zechariah reminds us of Sarah and Abraham, whose son Isaac was the heir to God’s promise. It reminds us of the story of Hannah and Elkanah, whose son Samuel was dedicated to God’s work. This time, here in Luke’s story, Zechariah, like Abraham, prays for what seems to be impossible. So Gabriel comes to bring the good news that his prayer has been answered and that he and Elizabeth will have a son, whose name is to be John. But Zechariah, like Abraham and Sarah, doesn’t actually believe that the answer is yes, and he questions the angel. Gabriel responds by taking away Zechariah’s voice, striking him mute, unable to speak.

  • THE ENDURING GODDESS: Artemis and Mary, Mother of Jesus”
    “THE ENDURING GODDESS: Artemis and Mary, Mother of Jesus” Carla Ionescu A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN HUMANITIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO May 2016 © Carla Ionescu, 2016 ii Abstract: Tradition states that the most popular Olympian deities are Apollo, Athena, Zeus and Dionysius. These divinities played key roles in the communal, political and ritual development of the Greco-Roman world. This work suggests that this deeply entrenched scholarly tradition is fissured with misunderstandings of Greek and Ephesian popular culture, and provides evidence that clearly suggests Artemis is the most prevalent and influential goddess of the Mediterranean, with roots embedded in the community and culture of this area that can be traced further back in time than even the arrival of the Greeks. In fact, Artemis’ reign is so fundamental to the cultural identity of her worshippers that even when facing the onslaught of early Christianity, she could not be deposed. Instead, she survived the conquering of this new religion under the guise of Mary, Mother of Jesus. Using methods of narrative analysis, as well as review of archeological findings, this work demonstrates that the customs devoted to the worship of Artemis were fundamental to the civic identity of her followers, particularly in the city of Ephesus in which Artemis reigned not only as Queen of Heaven, but also as Mother, Healer and Saviour. Reverence for her was as so deeply entrenched in the community of this city, that after her temple was destroyed, and Christian churches were built on top of her sacred places, her citizens brought forward the only female character in the new ruling religion of Christianity, the Virgin Mary, and re-named her Theotokos, Mother of God, within its city walls.
