  • Iudaea Capta Vs. Mother Zion: the Flavian Discourse on Judaeans and Its Delegitimation in 4 Ezra
    Journal for the Study of Judaism 49 (2018) 498-550 Journal for the Study of Judaism brill.com/jsj Iudaea Capta vs. Mother Zion: The Flavian Discourse on Judaeans and Its Delegitimation in 4 Ezra G. Anthony Keddie1 Assistant Professor, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada [email protected] Abstract This study proposes that the empire-wide Iudaea capta discourse should be viewed as a motivating pressure on the author of 4 Ezra. The discourse focused on Iudaea capta, Judaea captured, was pervasive across the Roman empire following the First Revolt. Though initiated by the Flavians, it became misrecognized across the Mediterranean and was expressed in a range of media. In this article, I examine the diverse evidence for this discourse and demonstrate that it not only cast Judaeans as barbaric enemies of Rome using a common set of symbols, but also attributed responsibility for a minor provincial revolt to a transregional ethnos/gens. One of the most distinctive symbols of this discourse was a personification of Judaea as a mourning woman. I argue that 4 Ezra delegitimates this Iudaea capta discourse, with its mourning woman, through the counter-image of a Mother Zion figure who transforms into the eschatological city. Keywords Iudaea capta/Judaea capta − Flavian dynasty − 4 Ezra − Roman iconography − Jewish-Roman relations − Mother Zion − apocalyptic discourse − First Jewish Revolt 1 I would like to thank Steven Friesen and L. Michael White for their helpful feedback and insightful suggestions on earlier versions of this study. © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, 2018 | doi:10.1163/15700631-12494235Downloaded from Brill.com10/06/2021 11:31:49PM via free access Iudaea Capta vs.

  • Breeders Used by CT Pet Stores
    Breeders used by CT Pet Stores Based on testimony submitted to the Task Force Concerning the Sale of Cats and Dogs at CT Pet Shops from Inhumane Origins by Karen Rasmussen, Wilton, CT 12/4/2013 Research method In Connecticut, a Certificate of Origin must accompany each dog sold or offered for sale in Connecticut pet shops. Such Certificate must identify the name and address of the breeder and broker of the dog, and be filed with the CT Department of Agriculture. CT Gen. Stat. 22-354 (b). The information listed in the Certificates is then plugged into USDA’s breeder and broker database to obtain the size of each operation and complete violation history. Photographs have been obtained from the USDA through FOIA. Format This report provides an alphabetical listing of 335 breeders who had USDA violations during the period 2010 – 2012. Each breeder was used by at least one pet shop in Connecticut. In 2012, over 600 breeders supplied Connecticut pet stores. 335 of these had USDA violations. 156 were unlicensed. 1 Adkins, Don & Kathleen 43A3998 2010 Anderson, Linda C. 42A0207 Disgusting reports 2010, 2011, 2012 Asmussen, Pam 46A0409 SIXTEEN violations at 5/12 pre-license inspection Bagley Sr, Gary 43A5573 2010.

    FALL / WINTER 2019 J with Hopkins SalesUNIVERSITY Partners PRESS I have been involved in the Association of University Presses since my fi rst job as a marketing assistant in scholarly publishing in the early 1980s. Therefore, it has been easy for me to take for granted the willingness of my university press colleagues to share information at the AUPresses Annual Meeting and, once the internet was invented, to continue conversations online all year long. And so, many of you will not be surprised by how excited we are to introduce a collaborative new entity called Hopkins Sales Partners. By pooling our resources and building scale, we know that university presses can be more successful in meeting our missions to disseminate knowledge far and wide and be fi nancially responsible in the process. Building new sales opportunities together with our sister presses seemed only natural to us here at JHUP. Barbara Kline Pope circa 1990. We welcome Wesleyan University Press, Northeastern University Press, Family Development Press, University of New Orleans Press, and Central European University Press to Hopkins Sales Partners and invite you to discover their exceptional books on pages 90–107.

All the other guys got to take home goldfish in little plastic bags. I won him because I guessed there were three hundred and forty-eight jelly beans in Mrs. Fargo's jar. Really, there were four hundred and twenty-three, she told us later. Still, my guess was closest. "Peter Warren Hatcher is the big winner!" Mrs. Fargo announced. At first I felt bad that I didn't get a goldfish too. Then Jimmy handed me a glass bowl. Inside there was some water and three rocks. A tiny green turtle was sleeping on the biggest rock. All the other guys looked at their goldfish. I knew what they were thinking. They wished they could have tiny green turtles too. I named my turtle Dribble while I was walking home from Jimmy's party.

  • Literary Interactions, AD 96– 138
    CJ-Online, 2019.02.02 BOOK REVIEW Roman Literature under Nerva, Trajan and Hadrian: Literary Interactions, AD 96– 138. By ALICE KÖNIG and CHRISTOPHER WHITTON, eds. Cambridge, UK: Cambridge University Press, 2018. Pp. 473. Hardback, $135.00. ISBN 978-1- 108-42059-4. Table of Contents as there a particular Zeitgeist in the literary culture after Domitian? How did literary figures think of themselves, their predecessors and their contemporaries under the first three of the “five good emper- ors”?W What sort of literary and cultural interactions are apparent in the authors active from the 90s to 130s CE? The eighteen contributions of this volume ad- dress these questions and more through a variety of interpretative and methodo- logical lenses, with intertextual and New Historicist readings driving a majority of the essays (although the contributors often want to stress how they have moved past “the snake pit of intertextuality”).1 The editors give a “manifesto” for the volume: “Literary Interactions is a call to work harder at reading high-imperial texts in their mutual context, and to attend to their dialogues (and lacks thereof) in as many ways as may be profitable” (28). As a whole, the volume succeeds in spades; while contributors stress the interactions between Pliny and Martial prominently and expectedly, there are also strong claims for Juvenal, Quintilian, Tacitus and Frontinus as especially important representatives of the illustrative “interactions” under consideration. The first group of essays focuses on literary connections. Whitton’s “Quintil- ian, Pliny, Tacitus” opens with a reflection on his title “Quite a pretentious title, to be sure” (37) that sets the reader up for the self-conscious style of his compelling essay.

  • The Empire Strikes: the Growth of Roman Infrastructural Minting Power, 60 B.C
    The Empire Strikes: The Growth of Roman Infrastructural Minting Power, 60 B.C. – A.D. 68 A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Classics of the College of Arts and Sciences by David Schwei M.A., University of Cincinnati, December 2012 B.A., Emory University, May 2009 Committee Chairs: Peter van Minnen, Ph.D Barbara Burrell, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Coins permeated the Roman Empire, and they offer a unique perspective into the ability of the Roman state to implement its decisions in Italy and the provinces. This dissertation examines how this ability changed and grew over time, between 60 B.C. and A.D. 68, as seen through coin production. Earlier scholars assumed that the mint at Rome always produced coinage for the entire empire, or they have focused on a sudden change under Augustus. Recent advances in catalogs, documentation of coin hoards, and metallurgical analyses allow a fuller picture to be painted. This dissertation integrates the previously overlooked coinages of Asia Minor, Syria, and Egypt with the denarius of the Latin West. In order to measure the development of the Roman state’s infrastructural power, this dissertation combines the anthropological ideal types of hegemonic and territorial empires with the numismatic method of detecting coordinated activity at multiple mints. The Roman state exercised its power over various regions to different extents, and it used its power differently over time. During the Republic, the Roman state had low infrastructural minting capacity.
