RICHARDSON ( N . ) (Trans.) Prudentius' Hymns for Hours And 574 THE CLASSICAL REVIEW therefore, ‘word for word’, but what it sacrifices by that lack it makes up for in poetic flu- ency and literary polish, while maintaining a fundamental faithfulness to Juvencus’ Latin text. One can get a sense of the foregoing from the opening lines of the Praefatio: Inmortale nihil mundi conpage tenetur, non orbis, non regna hominum, non aurea Roma, non mare, non tellus, non ignea sidera caeli. Now, McG.’s pentameters (p. 34): The universe has nothing without end – not earth, not realms of men, not golden Rome, not seas, not land, not stars that burn above. The phrase mundi conpage must be paraphrased – but it is an awkward phrase even in Latin, and one might suggest that McG.’s rendering smoothes out the line in a way that does minimal violence to the source-text while improving its readability for an English audience. The translation is preceded by a substantial introduction (pp. 1–33) that does an excel- lent job of setting up the poem and its author, about whom we know extremely little. McG. usefully situates the ELQ within the classical genre of epic, but also discusses the significant ways in which the author’s Christian faith impinges upon his handling of the genre (‘[t]here will never be “pessimistic” readers of the ELQ as there are of the Aeneid’, p. 19). As a biblical poet, Juvencus conforms much more closely to the biblical text than his epigones (McG. helpfully gives the references for each pericope in the margins), and in the main follows Matthew’s Gospel. Nevertheless, he is at the same time a highly allusive poet. Thus there is immense value in McG.’s lengthy annotations (pp. 113–273). Here he tracks differences from Juvencus’ Old Latin text of the Bible and intertextual references to other works of poetry, particularly Virgil. The nature of the commentary does not permit extended analysis – though McG. often makes brief remarks that put readers on the scent of Juvencus’ allusive programme – but the notes prepare the ground for more work in this area in the future. In sum, this volume, Juvencus’ first appearance in English, is excellent and will benefit newcomers and veterans of late Latin poetry alike. Hillsdale College E.J.

In fact, his work was popular and widely appreciated into the early modern period – Richard Bentley called him ‘the Virgil and Horace of the Christians’ (Christianorum Maro et Flaccus). Yet Prudentius has since been relegated to the outer reaches of readerly interest and attention, particularly in the Anglophone world. R. has done his part to change this state of affairs. His excellent translation of Prudentius’ Cathemerinon captures the poet’s virtues and should inspire audiences to want to read more Prudentius. The Cathemerinon is a twelve-work cycle of hymns in lyric metres: the first six comprise hymns for different times in the day, while the second six are varied but seem largely organised around the liturgical year and the major events of Lent, Easter, Christmas and Epiphany. With significant skill, R. performs the translator’s task of transmitting the character and essence of the original. His translation is itself lyric poetry that enables Prudentius’ verse to inhabit a new language and to live again in it. A considerable part of R.’s achievement lies in his use of metre. R. translates either in a strict metre or in a looser but still recognisable metrical pattern; he varies his metres, more- over, to reflect Prudentius’ own lyric polymetry. R. follows Prudentius by rendering the first and last pair of poems in the collection (as well as C. 10) in four-line stanzas of iambic dimeter. Prudentius framed the Cathemerinon in that manner to link his work to the iambic dimeter hymns of Ambrose. Much as Prudentius utilised form to create continuity between him and Ambrose, R. bridges the distance between his translation and Prudentius through rhythm and structure. This goes a long way towards preserving the quality and feel of the original. R. reproduces Prudentius’ metres in other poems as well (C. 6, 7, 9). Yet even when he does not so adhere to his source, his formal patterns, coupled with his lexical choices, are such that he succeeds in creating Prudentian poems in English. This is translation at a high level, in which the translator exhibits artistic sympathy with his predecessor and takes on his voice, rather than just rendering his words. It would have been useful to have a facing text of the Latin, so that those with the language might easily compare R.’s version with Prudentius and thus see immediately how he reconstitutes his source. The series to which R.’s Cathemerinon belongs, however, does not print the Latin text in any of its titles. R. also provides a valuable introduction and notes to the Cathemerinon. The intro- duction orients newcomers to Prudentius by presenting an overview of his life, œuvre, literary and historical contexts, and the Cathemerinon; experienced readers of the poet, however, will also benefit from R.’s perceptive and economical account. The notes summarise the content of each poem and elucidate varied details. R. discusses themes and imagery and treats a range of other topics, including biblical parallels, church/doctrinal history, liturgical practices and Prudentius’ echoes of classical poets and late-antique authors. In a preface to an edition of his complete works, Prudentius states his wish to fly forth to heaven, the place to which his quick tongue also tends (quo tulerit lingua sono mobilis ultimo, praef. 45). In this sublunary realm, however, he could not have sought a better destination for his lingua mobilis than R. His translation of the Cathemerinon is a keen pleasure and a major achievement.

  • Jordanes and the Invention of Roman-Gothic History Dissertation
    Empire of Hope and Tragedy: Jordanes and the Invention of Roman-Gothic History Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Brian Swain Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Timothy Gregory, Co-advisor Anthony Kaldellis Kristina Sessa, Co-advisor Copyright by Brian Swain 2014 Abstract This dissertation explores the intersection of political and ethnic conflict during the emperor Justinian’s wars of reconquest through the figure and texts of Jordanes, the earliest barbarian voice to survive antiquity. Jordanes was ethnically Gothic - and yet he also claimed a Roman identity. Writing from Constantinople in 551, he penned two Latin histories on the Gothic and Roman pasts respectively. Crucially, Jordanes wrote while Goths and Romans clashed in the imperial war to reclaim the Italian homeland that had been under Gothic rule since 493. That a Roman Goth wrote about Goths while Rome was at war with Goths is significant and has no analogue in the ancient record. I argue that it was precisely this conflict which prompted Jordanes’ historical inquiry. Jordanes, though, has long been considered a mere copyist, and seldom treated as an historian with ideas of his own. And the few scholars who have treated Jordanes as an original author have dampened the significance of his Gothicness by arguing that barbarian ethnicities were evanescent and subsumed by the gravity of a Roman political identity. They hold that Jordanes was simply a Roman who can tell us only about Roman things, and supported the Roman emperor in his war against the Goths.

  • Review Juvencus and the Death of the Messiah: a New Commentary
    Histos 11 (2017) xii–xvi REVIEW JUVENCUS AND THE DEATH OF THE MESSIAH: A NEW COMMENTARY Michael Müller, Tod und Auferstehung Jesu Christi bei Iuvencus (IV 570–812). Unter- suchungen zu Dichtkunst, Theologie und Zweck der ‘Evangeliorum Libri Quattuor’. Palin- genesia 105. Stuttgart: Franz Steiner Verlag, 2016. Pp. 413. Paperback, €68.00. ISBN 978-3-515-11340-3. onty Python’s ‘Life of Brian’ finds an ancient analogue in Juvencus’ Evangeliorum libri IV, which likewise appealed to contemporary taste, M this time by turning the Gospel-tale into soberly Virgilianesque hex- ameters. This sempervirent story culminates in the Messiah’s death and resur- rection, which as the meat-and-potatoes of the Christian message form the subject of M(üller)’s study: his book is in effect a commentary on Juvencus 4.570–812. M’s ‘Introduction’ (14) promises us a ‘philological’ commentary which is both ‘umfassend’ and ‘solide’. This commentary is divided into thir- teen pericopes. The first pericope is the denial of St. Peter. The very first scholium in this first pericope’s first section (Peter’s first denial) bodes ill for this ‘philological’ commentary by starting off with two philological foul-ups (22): while M’s quis posset fallere amantem (Aen. 4.296: instead read fallere possit) impairs Virgil’s sense and scansion, Martha talis vox (Juvenc. 4.375: instead read Marthae) reduces this Juvencan phrase to scansional and syntactic mumbo-jumbo. In the second sec- tion of this first pericope (Peter’s second denial) the apparatus to M’s text (574: limine) fails to record the variant lumine, which is however discussed in the en- suing commentary, where M’s odd in limina solis (27) is a mistake for Virgilian sub limina s.

T Today, Ovid’s famous work is one of the touchstones of ancient literature, but we have only a handful of scraps and quota� ons to show how the earliest medieval readers received and discussed the poems—un� l the Munich Bayerische Staatsbibliothek clm 4610. This commentary, which dates from around the year 1100 is the fi rst systema� c study of the Metamorphoses, founding a tradi� on of scholarly study that extends to the present day. Despite its signifi cance, this medieval commentary has never before been HE published or analysed as a whole.

    EVIDENCES OF CHRISTIANITY. BY WILLIAM PALEY, D.D. A NEW EDITION. 1851. LONDON: PRINTED BY W.CLOWES AND SONS, STAMFORD STREET. THE HONOURABLE AND RIGHT REVEREND JAMES YORK, D.D., LORD BISHOP OF ELY My LORD, When, five years ago, an important station in the University of Cambridge awaited your Lordship's disposal, you were pleased to offer it to me. The circumstances under which this offer was made demand a public acknowledgment. I had never seen your Lordship; I possessed no connection which could possibly recommend me to your favour; I was known to you only by my endeavour, in common with many others, to discharge my duty as a tutor in the University; and by some very imperfect, but certainly well-intended, and, as you thought, useful publications since. In an age by no means wanting in examples of honourable patronage, although this deserve not to be mentioned in respect of the object of your Lordship's choice, it is inferior to none in the purity and disinterestedness of the motives which suggested it. How the following work may be received, I pretend not to foretell. My first prayer concerning it is, that it may do good to any: my second hope, that it may assist, what it hath always been my earnest wish to promote, the religious part of an academical education. If in this latter view it might seem, in any degree, to excuse your Lordship's judgment of its author, I shall be gratified by the reflection that, to a kindness flowing from public principles, I have made the best public return in my power.
