Brainy Quote ~ Marcus Aurelius 036 Brainy Quote ~ Marcus Aurelius 036 “Reject your sense of injury and the injury itself disappears.” ~ Marcus Aurelius 036 ~ Ok "Abaikan rasa lukamu dan luka itu sendiri akan hilang." ~ Marcus Aurelius 036 ~ Ok Apakah Anda pernah mengalami luka fisik? Kemudian, apakah Anda pernah merasakan luka batin? Manakah yang lebih menyakitkan? Menurut sebagian besar orang yang pernah mengalaminya, luka fisik akan sembuh dalam beberapa minggu atau mungkin dalam beberapa hari. Sementara, luka batin belum tentu sembuh dalam sekian bulan bahkan bertahun-tahun setelahnya. Dengan demikian, mereka menyatakan luka batin jauh lebih sakit dan lebih lama dibandingkan luka fisik. Namun, luka manapun yang pernah Anda alami, Anda memiliki kendali untuk mengabaikan rasa sakitnya. Sehingga, luka itu dapat hilang dari rasa walaupun sesungguhnya ia masih ada. Demikianlah pernyataan yang pernah disampaikan Marcus Aurelius, seorang kaisar Romawi dan pemimpin militer, hidup dalam rentang tahun 121-180 M, lewat quote-nya, ‘Reject your sense of injury and the injury itself disappears.’ Secara bebas diterjemahkan, ‘Abaikan rasa lukamu dan luka itu sendiri akan hilang.’ Rasa sakit merupakan pengalaman yang tidak dapat dihindari oleh manusia sebagai makhluk yang hidup. Kita tak dapat selalu memperoleh keadaan atau merasakan suasana yang seturut kemauan kita. Kita mungkin saja tersakiti oleh sesuatu hal atau oleh orang lain, baik teman, saudara, atasan, kolega, atau bahkan oleh anak, keponakan, atau orang-orang yang lebih muda dari kita. Namun, rasa sakit itu tergantung pada kita. Bila kita membiarkan ia menguasai fisik dan jiwa kita, ia akan terus bersemayam di dalam diri kita. Tetapi, bila kita mampu mengendalikan atau menguasainya, maka kita dapat mengabaikan bahwa ia ada. Sehingga, kita terbebas dari rasa sakit manapun, baik sakit fisik apalagi sakit batin. Brainy Quote ~ Marcus Aurelius 004-036 Page 1 Kemampuan kita mengabaikannya adalah satu-satunya cara untuk tidak ‘berkubang’ di lumpur rasa sakit. Ketika kita merasakan rasa sakit, sesungguhnya karena kita mengijinkannya menyakiti diri kita. Namun, bila kita mampu menguasainya dengan seolah-olah bahwa ia telah tiada, maka itulah faktanya bagi kita. Bangkitlah! Lanjutkan hidupmu! Jangan terus berada dalam kondisi rasa sakit. Hidupmu dalam kendalimu. Maka, kendalikan rasa sakitmu. Abaikan dia, maka ia tidak akan bersemayam lama di dalam hati dan pikiranmu. Indonesia, 22 Januari 2019 Riset Corporation --- Marcus Aurelius Biography.com Scholar, Emperor, Military Leader (121–180) As Emperor of Rome from 161-180, Marcus Aurelius kept the empire safe from the Parthians and Germans, but is best known for his intellectual pursuits. Synopsis Marcus Aurelius was born on April 26, 121, in Italy, and was chosen by Emporer Hadrian to be his eventual successor. In 161, Aurelius took control of the Roman Empire along with his brother Verus. War and disease threatened Rome on all sides. Aurelius held his territory, but was weakened as a ruler after the death of his brother Verus. His son Commodus later became co-ruler in 177, only three years before Aurelius died on March 17, 180. Early Life Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius was born on April 26, 121, in Rome, Italy. Known for his philosophical interests, Aurelius was one of the most respected emperors in Roman history. He was born into a wealthy and politically prominent family. Growing up, Aurelius was a dedicated student, learning Latin and Greek. But his greatest intellectual interest was Stoicism, a philosophy that emphasized fate, reason and self-restraint. Discourses, written by a former slave and Stoic philosopher Epictetus, had a great deal of influence over Marcus Aurelius. His serious and hard-working nature was even noticed by Emperor Hadrian. After his earlier choice for a successor died, Hadrian adopted Titus Aurelius Antoninus (who would be known as Emperor Pius Antonius) to succeed him as an emperor. Hadrian also arranged for Antoninus to adopt Marcus Aurelius and the son of his earlier successor. Around the age of 17, Marcus Aurelius became the son of Antoninus. He worked alongside his adopted father while learning the ways of government and public affairs. Entry into Politics In 140, Aurelius became consul, or leader of the senate—a post he would hold two more times in his lifetime. As the years passed, he received more responsibilities and official powers, evolving into a strong source of support and counsel for Antoninus. Aurelius also continued his philosophical studies and developed an interest in law. Along with his burgeoning career, Aurelius seemed to have a contented personal life. He married Faustina, the emperor’s daughter, in 145. Together they had many children, though some did not live for long. Best known are their daughter Lucilla and their son Commodus. Brainy Quote ~ Marcus Aurelius 004-036 Page 2 Becoming Emperor After his adoptive father died in 161, Aurelius rose to power and was officially then known as Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Augustus. While some sources indicate that Antoninus selected him as his only successor, Aurelius insisted that his adopted brother served as his co-ruler. His brother was Lucius Aurelius Verus Augustus (usually referred to as Verus). Unlike the peaceful and prosperous rule of Antoninus, the joint reign of the two brothers was marked by war and disease. In the 160s, they battled with the Parthian empire for control over lands in the East. Verus oversaw the war effort while Aurelius stayed in Rome. Much of their success in this conflict has been attributed to the generals working under Verus, especially Avidius Cassius. He was later made governor of Syria. Returning soldiers brought some type of disease back with them to Rome, which lingered for years and wiped out a portion of the population. As the Parthian War ended, the two rulers had to face another military conflict with German tribes in the late 160s. German tribes crossed the Danube River and attacked a Roman city. After raising the necessary funds and troops, Aurelius and Verus went off to fight the invaders. Verus died in 169 so Aurelius pushed on alone, attempting to drive away the Germans. Challenges to His Authority In 175, he faced another challenge—this time for his very position. After hearing a rumor about Aurelius being deathly ill, Avidius Cassius claimed the title of emperor for himself. This forced Aurelius to travel to the East to regain control. But he did not have to fight Cassius as he was murdered by his own soldiers. Instead Aurelius toured eastern provinces with his wife, re-establishing his authority. Unforunately, Faustina died during this trip. While once again battling the German tribes, Aurelius made his son Commodus his co-ruler in 177. Together they fought the northern enemies of the empire. Aurelius even hoped to extend the empire’s borders through this conflict, but Aurelius didn't live long enough to see this vision to completion. Marcus Aurelius died on March 17, 180. His son Commodus became emperor and soon ended the northern military efforts. Marcus Aurelius, however, is not best remembered for the wars he waged, but for his contemplative nature and his rule driven by reason. A collection of his thoughts have been published in a work called The Meditations. Based on his Stoic beliefs, the work is filled with his notes on life.

To date, his name is well-maintained in antiquity. An eager follower of Stoicism, his philosophical ideals and writings were all compiled and preserved in a dairy for over ten years, which is known to the world today as ‘Meditations’. At a time when battle and malady destabilized the Roman empire from all sides, Aurelius made sure that he was every bit the emperor his people wanted him to be, by protecting them from the callousness of the Germans and the Parthians. As a young boy, it is believed that this powerful leader was in fact, an earnest child and took to music, drama, literature, the sciences and geometry to keep himself busy. In his youth, he studied philosophy with fervor for the next couple of decades and also developed an interest in law, which earned him the position of the leader of the senate. During his reign as the emperor, he fought the northern nemeses along with his brother, Verus and son, Commodus and began to expand his empire’s borders despite all the war pandemonium. Today, he is remembered for his writings, reflective nature and his statute driven by cause. Childhood & Early Life • Marcus Aurelius was born on 26 April 121 into a wealthy, prominent family in Rome, Italy. He was extremely bright as a young boy and was a dedicated student, tutored by many private educators. • He was passionate about literature, music, Latin and Greek, but took great interest and absorbed himself in the works of the Stoic philosopher, Epictetus, who had a great influence over the Roman emperor’s ideologies from very early on. This sort of intellectual dedication was noticed by the- then emperor, Hadrian. • After Hadrian’s former choice of heir passed away, he adopted Titus Aurelius Antoninus to succeed him as emperor. Hadrian also organized for Antoninus to embrace and take young Aurelius under his wing at the age of 17.

  • Roman Population Size: the Logic of the Debate
    Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics Roman population size: the logic of the debate Version 2.0 July 2007 Walter Scheidel Stanford University Abstract: This paper provides a critical assessment of the current state of the debate about the number of Roman citizens and the size of the population of Roman Italy. Rather than trying to make a case for a particular reading of the evidence, it aims to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of rival approaches and examine the validity of existing arguments and critiques. After a brief survey of the evidence and the principal positions of modern scholarship, it focuses on a number of salient issues such as urbanization, military service, labor markets, political stability, living standards, and carrying capacity, and considers the significance of field surveys and comparative demographic evidence. © Walter Scheidel. [email protected] 1 1. Roman population size: why it matters Our ignorance of ancient population numbers is one of the biggest obstacles to our understanding of Roman history. After generations of prolific scholarship, we still do not know how many people inhabited Roman Italy and the Mediterranean at any given point in time. When I say ‘we do not know’ I do not simply mean that we lack numbers that are both precise and safely known to be accurate: that would surely be an unreasonably high standard to apply to any pre-modern society. What I mean is that even the appropriate order of magnitude remains a matter of intense dispute. This uncertainty profoundly affects modern reconstructions of Roman history in two ways. First of all, our estimates of overall Italian population number are to a large extent a direct function of our views on the size of the Roman citizenry, and inevitably shape any broader guesses concerning the demography of the Roman empire as a whole.

  • Expulsion from the Senate of the Roman Republic, C.319–50 BC
    Ex senatu eiecti sunt: Expulsion from the Senate of the Roman Republic, c.319–50 BC Lee Christopher MOORE University College London (UCL) PhD, 2013 1 Declaration I, Lee Christopher MOORE, 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. 2 Thesis abstract One of the major duties performed by the censors of the Roman Republic was that of the lectio senatus, the enrolment of the Senate. As part of this process they were able to expel from that body anyone whom they deemed unequal to the honour of continued membership. Those expelled were termed ‘praeteriti’. While various aspects of this important and at-times controversial process have attracted scholarly attention, a detailed survey has never been attempted. The work is divided into two major parts. Part I comprises four chapters relating to various aspects of the lectio. Chapter 1 sees a close analysis of the term ‘praeteritus’, shedding fresh light on senatorial demographics and turnover – primarily a demonstration of the correctness of the (minority) view that as early as the third century the quaestorship conveyed automatic membership of the Senate to those who held it. It was not a Sullan innovation. In Ch.2 we calculate that during the period under investigation, c.350 members were expelled. When factoring for life expectancy, this translates to a significant mean lifetime risk of expulsion: c.10%. Also, that mean risk was front-loaded, with praetorians and consulars significantly less likely to be expelled than subpraetorian members.

  • 7 the Roman Empire
    Eli J. S. Weaverdyck 7 The Roman Empire I Introduction The Roman Empire was one of the largest and longest lasting of all the empires in the ancient world.1 At its height, it controlled the entire coast of the Mediterranean and vast continental hinterlands, including most of western Europe and Great Brit- ain, the Balkans, all of Asia Minor, the Near East as far as the Euphrates (and be- yond, briefly), and northern Africa as far south as the Sahara. The Mediterranean, known to the Romans as mare nostrum(‘our sea’), formed the core. The Mediterranean basin is characterized by extreme variability across both space and time. Geologically, the area is a large subduction zone between the African and European tectonic plates. This not only produces volcanic and seismic activity, it also means that the most commonly encountered bedrock is uplifted limestone, which is easily eroded by water. Much of the coastline is mountainous with deep river valleys. This rugged topography means that even broadly similar climatic conditions can pro- duce drastically dissimilar microclimates within very short distances. In addition, strong interannual variability in precipitation means that local food shortages were an endemic feature of Mediterranean agriculture. In combination, this temporal and spatial variability meant that risk-buffering mechanisms including diversification, storage, and distribution of goods played an important role in ancient Mediterranean survival strategies. Connectivity has always characterized the Mediterranean.2 While geography encouraged mobility, the empire accelerated that tendency, inducing the transfer of people, goods, and ideas on a scale never seen before.3 This mobility, combined with increased demand and the efforts of the imperial govern- ment to mobilize specific products, led to the rise of broad regional specializations, particularly in staple foods and precious metals.4 The results of this increased con- It has also been the subject of more scholarship than any other empire treated in this volume.

  • The Impact of the Roman Republican Army
    PART ONE THE IMPACT OF THE ROMAN REPUBLICAN ARMY Luuk De Ligt - 9789047430391 Downloaded from Brill.com09/28/2021 03:05:09AM via free access ROMAN MANPOWER RESOURCES AND THE PROLETARIANIZATION OF THE ROMAN ARMY IN THE SECOND CENTURY BC Luuk De Ligt Demographic developments In his account of the run-up to the passing of the lex Sempronia agraria of 133 bc Appian repeatedly underlines the military and demographic rationale of the Gracchan land reforms. In chapter 8, for instance, he describes Tiberius Gracchus as making a powerful speech in which the people of Italy (Italiotai) were characterized as excellent ghters but also as declining into poverty and depopulation. Similarly, Tiberius Gracchus is said to have defended his proposal by rhetorically asking whether a citizen was not always a better man than a slave, and a soldier more useful than a non-soldier. The same demographic and military theme is found also in Appian’s description of the undoing of the Gracchan reform programme, as a result of which ‘the numbers of both citizens and soldiers diminished still more’.1 At rst sight the census gures for the period 163–130 bc seem to tell a similar story: whereas the censors of 164/3 bc were able to reg- ister some 337,000 adult male citizens, the census gure for 130 bc is only 319,000. Although a decrease of less than 20,000 in more than three decades may not seem huge, the general trend for these years is in sharp contrast to the steep increase indicated by the census gures for the rst 35 years of the second century bc.
