Nemi: V. 1 Free FREE NEMI: V. 1 PDF Lise Myhre | 160 pages | 18 Mar 2008 | Titan Books Ltd | 9781845765866 | English | London, United Kingdom NEMI Method Summary - The town's name derives from the Latin nemusor "holy wood". In antiquity the area had no town, but the grove was the Nemi: v. 1 of one of the most famous of Roman cults and temples: the Temple of Diana Nemorensisa study of which served as the seed for Sir James Frazer 's seminal work on the anthropology of religion, The Golden Bough. In Marcantonio I Colonna gave to Nemi the "Statuti e Capituli del Castello di Nemi", the first city statute with rules and regulations to observe. It was a famous place of pilgrimage in the Italian peninsula. The temple complex covered an area of square meters. Historical Nemi: v. 1 suggests that worship of Diana at Nemi flourished from at least the 6th century BCE [4] The temple was abandoned at some point in the late Roman Empire period. If still in use by the 4th-century, it would have been closed during the persecution of pagans in the late Roman Empire. Portions of its marbles and decorations were removed. The area of the temple was gradually covered by forest and generally left undisturbed for centuries. Amateur archaeological excavations of the site began in the s. Possibly in connection with the cult of Diana Nemorensis, Roma emperor Caligula built several very large and costly luxury barges for use on the lake. One ship was a shrine dedicated to ceremonies for the Egyptian Isis cult or the cult of Diana Nemorensis, designed to be towed, Nemi: v. 1 the other was a pleasure boat with buildings on it. After Caligula's overthrow, the boats were scuttled. The ships were rediscovered during the Renaissancewhen architect Leon Battista Alberti is reported to have attempted to raise the ships by roping them to buoyant barrels. While ingenious, this method proved unsuccessful, because of extensive rotting. This was just one of many attempts to relate himself to the Roman Emperors of the past. The ships were exposed by lowering Nemi: v. 1 lake level using underground canals that were dug by the ancient Romans. They were destroyed by fire on 31 Mayit is disputed whether this was Nemi: v. 1 by defeated German forces retreating from Italy at the end of World War II or accidentally by squatters taking refuge in the museum building. Surviving remnants from the excavations as well as replicas are now displayed in the Museo Nazionale Romano at the Palazzo Nemi: v. 1 in Rome. The ship hulls survive today at Museo delle Navi Romane, Nemi. Nemi is famous for its wild strawberries, which are smaller and sweeter than commercially grown varieties. Nemi's strawberries are grown on the sides of the volcanic Nemi: v. 1, which creates a microclimate that retains the warmth of the sun and provides a wind shield. Nemi conducts an annual festival of strawberries. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. This article is about town in Rome. For other uses, see Nemi disambiguation. Comune in Lazio, Italy.

  • La Latinità Di Ariccia E La Grecità Di Nemi. Istituzioni Civili E Religiose a Confronto
    ANNA PASQUALINI La latinità di Ariccia e la grecità di Nemi. Istituzioni civili e religiose a confronto Il titolo del mio intervento è solo apparentemente contraddittorio. Esso è volto a mettere in relazione due contesti sociali tanto vicini nello spazio quanto distanti per impianto culturale e per funzioni politiche: la città di Ariccia e il lucus Dianius. Del bosco sacro a Diana e della selva che lo circonda si è scritto moltissimo soprattutto da quando esso costituì il fulcro di un’opera straordinaria per ricchezza ed originalità quale quella di Sir James Frazer1 Su Ariccia, invece, come comunità cittadina e sulle sue istituzioni politiche e religiose non si è riflettuto abbastanza2 e, in particolare, queste ultime non sono state messe sufficientemente in relazione con il santuario nemorense. Cercherò, quindi, di svolgere qualche considerazione nella speranza di fornire un piccolo contributo alla definizione degli intricati problemi del territorio aricino. Ariccia, come comunità politica, appare nelle fonti letterarie all’epoca del secondo Tarquinio, il tiranno per eccellenza, spregiatore del Senato e del popolo3. Al Superbo viene attribuita una forte vocazione al controllo politico del Lazio attraverso un’accorta rete di alleanze con i maggiorenti del Lazio, primo fra tutti il più eminente di essi, e cioè Ottavio Mamilio di Tuscolo, che è anche suo genero (Livio I 49); è ancora Tarquinio che, secondo le fonti (Livio I 50), indirizza la politica dei Latini convocando i federati in assemblea presso il lucus sacro a Ferentina4. La scelta del luogo non è casuale. Il bosco sacro è stato localizzato nel territorio di Ariccia, ma esso viene considerato idealmente collegato con il Monte Albano, cioè con il centro sacrale dei Latini, 1 La prima edizione dell’opera, The Golden Bough, risale al 1890.

  • Castelli Romani” (Roman Castles) Are a Group of Towns in the Province of Rome
    EUROPE ITALY GENZANO DI ROMA LAZIO The “Castelli Romani” (Roman Castles) are a group of towns in the province of Rome. The area of the “Castelli” occupies a volcanic and fertile area characterized by ancient settlements and flourishing agriculture. The old crater is now occupied by two lakes, Lake Nemi and Lake Albano. The recent name Roman Castles derives from the villages built around some villas and palaces where rich noble families spent the summer. The “Castelli Romani” are: •Albano Laziale •Ariccia •Castel Gandolfo •Colonna •Frascati •Genzano di Roma •Grottaferrata •Lanuvio •Lariano •Marino •Monte Compatri •Monte Porzio Catone •Nemi •Rocca di Papa •Rocca Priora •Velletri EVENTS “CASTELLI ROMANI” PARK HISTORICAL GEOLOGICAL INFORMATION INFORMATION UPPER SECONDARY SCHOOL: LICEO SCIENTIFICO “GIOVANNI VAILATI” ““CASTELLICASTELLI ROMANIROMANI”” REGIONALREGIONAL PARKPARK Genzano and its surroundings are included in the area of the “Castelli Romani” Regional Park .

The “Infiorata” The most important attraction is the “Infiorata”, a folkloristic and religious exhibition known all over the world. The “Infiorata” has taken place on Sunday following Corpus Domini since 1778. It consists of a huge flower carpet divided into many images that covers the street that joins the cathedral with the main square. Many famous artists have contributed to the “Infiorata”. A masked parade walk on the flower carpet. The people wear traditional clothes that date back to the 17th century. At least 350,000 flower petals, in addition to earth, beans and sometimes wood cuttings, are necessary to make the carpet.

  • Temples with Transverse Cellae in Republican and Early Imperial Italy
    BABesch 82 (2007, 333-346. doi: 10.2143/BAB.82.2.2020781) Forms of Cult? Temples with transverse cellae in Republican and early Imperial Italy Benjamin D. Rous Abstract This article presents an analysis of a particular temple type that first appeared during the Late Republic, the temple with transverse cella. In the past this particular cella-form has been interpreted as a solution to spatial constraints. In more recent times it has been argued that the cult associated with the temple was the decisive factor in the adoption of the transverse cella. Neither theory, when considered in isolation, can fully and con- vincingly explain the particular forms of both Republican and Imperial temples. Rather, it can be argued that a combination of pragmatic and above all aesthetic considerations has played a major role in the particular archi- tecture of these temples.* INTRODUCTION archaeological evidence, even though the remains of the building itself have never been excavated.

  • Roman Images of Diana Bettina Bergmann Mount Holyoke College
    ! "! A Double Triple Play: Roman Images of Diana Bettina Bergmann Mount Holyoke College John Miller’s study of Augustan Apollo inspired me to return to Paul Zanker’s The Power of Images in the Age of Augustus (1988), a book that demonstrated the immense potential of an interdisciplinary approach rather than exclusive focus on any one artistic mode. Nearly a quarter of a century later, this session continues to grapple with the challenges of interdisciplinarity and assessment of the Augustan era. Miller’s subtle analysis of poets’ intricate language invites a renewed consideration of the relationships among texts, sites, and images. The operations that he describes -- conflating, juxtaposing, allusion, correspondence, association – can be related directly to the analysis of topography and monuments as well. I also would like to extend his recommendation to “analyze variations in light of one another” and consider visual images of an elusive figure in his book, the divine twin Diana. The goddess appears, often as an afterthought, literally placed in parentheses after a mention of Apollo, until she assumes prominence in Miller’s insightful treatment of the saecular games (Chapter Five). As I will argue, however, in the visual environment of Augustan Rome, she would have been impossible to bracket out. While the goddess, fiercely independent, often appeared alone, in the second half of the first century B.C.E. she became a faithful companion of Apollo. Diva triformis The late republic and early empire saw an explosion of images of the divine sister, who, like Apollo, evolved into a dynamic, shape-shifting deity, slipping from one identity to another: Hecate, Trivia, Luna, Selene, even Juno Lucina.

  • Evocatio Deorum
    Evocatio deorum SOME NOTES ON THE ROMANIZATION OF ETRURIA By PATRICK BRUUN Evocatio deorum is an institution known in antiquity in the Roman and in the Hettite religions. It has therefore been regarded as part of the common Indo-European heritage. It is uncertain to what extent the Etruscans had inaugurated the evocatio in their world of religious practices. Sugges- tions that the Etruscans transmitted the institution of the evocatio to Italy and Rome have been taken to prove the Asiatic origin of the Tyrrhenoi. In this context, however, these theories are of little interest. Basically evocatio is a kind of vow. In a trial of strength between two opposing armies, most frequently in the course of a siege, the Roman com- mander (because evocatio in our sources appears as a Roman institution, the subject, the agent is always a Roman) invokes the assistance of the tutelary god of the besieged, in fact evokes him urging him to desert his people and promising him a sacred precinct, temple, cult and devotion in Rome. Now you may ask what on earth this has to do with the subject of our symposium. I would look at it in the following way: Evocatio is a precaution, or a weapon against the enemies of the Romans. The efficacy of this weapon was based on the Roman belief in a firm connex- ion between the gods on the one hand and the territory or the society, the state, protected by them on the other. A study of the evocation is conse- quently apt to shed light on the religious foundations or motivation of the state according to Roman views.

A thesis submitted to the Division of Research and Advanced Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of Classics of the College of Arts and Sciences 1999 by Alexandra L. Lesk Blomerus B.A., Dartmouth College, 1995 M.St., University of Oxford, 1996 Committee: Professor C. Brian Rose (Chair) Professor Jack L. Davis 1 ABSTRACT At some point in the fourth century B.C., anatomical votive terracottas began to be dedicated in sanctuaries in central Italy. Thousands of replicas of body parts have been found in votive deposits in these sanctuaries, left to deities as requests or thank offerings for healing. The spread of the anatomical votive terracotta phenomenon has been attributed to the colonisation of central Italy by the Romans. In addition, parallels have been drawn to the similar short-lived phenomenon at the Asklepieion at Corinth where models of body parts were also dedicated in the context of a healing cult. After a general introduction to the historical and physical context of the anatomical votive terracotta phenomenon, this thesis examines the link to Corinth and suggests how the practice was first transmitted to Italy. Votive evidence of early date and peculiar typology found in situ from the sanctuary at Gravisca on the south coast of Etruria suggests contact with Greeks who would have been familiar with the practice of dedicating anatomical votive terracottas at Corinth.

  • Understanding Style and Identity in the Mediterranean Oikoumene The
    L. Ricci 6176607 [email protected] Understanding style and identity in the Mediterranean oikoumene The case of the sanctuary of Aesculapius at Fregellae Luca Ricci BA 1 L. Ricci 6176607 [email protected] Summary The sanctuary of Aesculapius at Fregellae provides a useful case study to understand the complex dynamics of cultural interaction and formation. The thesis will study its forms and what they could have meant at a socio-cultural level. While this question has already been addressed before, the approach followed static, linear conceptions of cultural interaction. Here, a more dynamic framework will be adopted, taking into consideration the heightened connections between local and “global” realities. What this implies is that Fregellae, as a local reality, could assert its own presence within the wider Mediterranean landscape without being a passive pawn in the hands of supralocal forces. The sanctuary will reflect these dynamics at an architectural level, whereby “global” elements that belong to a Mediterranean oikoumene are combined with localised architectural developments according to “glocalising bricolage.” At a more socio-cultural tier, the sanctuary embodied these local-“global” dynamics by conveying different ideas of self-portrayal at different levels: local, regional and pan- Mediterranean.

  • Julia DYSON the Oleaster at the End of the Aeneid the Aeneid's
    Julia DYSON The Oleaster at the End of the Aeneid The Aeneid's penultimate episode in the human sphere (12.766-90) has puzzled readers ancient and modern. While he is chasing Turnus, who is compared to a hunted deer, Aeneas' spear gets stuck in the stump of Faunus' sacred tree, a wild olive (oleaster) on which sailors "saved from the waves" had hung votive offerings before the Trojans cut it down. This paper argues that the episode is vital to Virgil's program of allusions to Roman cult, especially those of the deified Aeneas and of the Rex Nemorensis. The paper first addresses the question that puzzled Servius Auctus (ad 12.768): Why are rescued sailors making offerings to a rural land divinity? L. A. Holland suggests, plausibly, that Virgil is alluding to Faunus' shrine on the island in the middle of the Tiber (Janus and the Bridge [Rome, 1961] p. 168). But this does not explain why Virgil chooses to recall that shrine here, in the middle of a land battle. The incongruous mention of shipwrecked sailors may in fact be intended to remind the reader of the tradition surrounding Aeneas' own death. It was well known to Virgil's ancient readers that Aeneas was worshipped at a shrine by the Numicus river, into which (by most accounts) he fell, and his body was never found. Allusions to this tradition are as important to the Aeneid as the death of Achilles is to the Iliad; as the death of Hector predicts and prefigures that of Achilles, so the sacrificial death of Turnus points to that of Aeneas.

    SPECULUM DEAE. PROPAGANDA PÚBLICA Y LEGITIMACIÓN DE LA MATRONA IMPERIAL Speculum Deae. Roman State propaganda and the legitimation of Imperial Matron ALMUDENA DOMÍNGUEZ ARRANZ* Universidad de Zaragoza RESUMEN: El recurso a las alegorías ha sido y sigue siendo un hábito frecuente en todos los períodos históricos, y desde la Antigüedad se impuso como un modo de reivindicación de valores y de difusión de la ideología del po- der. Revisamos en este artículo el significado que tuvo la diosa Diana/Ártemis en la casa de Augusto y como in- fluyó en el proceso de legitimación de la dinastía que ejercieron las princesas imperiales. Palabras clave: Apolo, Diana, princesas imperiales, Augusto, Saint-Maurice d'Agaune, Hermitage. ABSTRACT: The use of allegories has been and still is a very common resource in all historical periods, for, from ancient times on, it became a tool to claim values and disseminate ideology. In this paper, we deal with the mean- ing of the Goddess Diana/Artemis at the augustean house and her influence over the legitimation process of the imperial princesses, Augustean. Key words: Apolo, Diana, imperial princesses, Augustus, Saint-Maurice d'Agaune, Hermitage. El recurso a las alegorías identificadas con deidades matronales En este trabajo, queremos centrar nuestro objetivo de análisis en el modo cómo se construye la propaganda imperial que utiliza a las matronas para articu- lar la política y la ideología del estado, tomando como referencia dos objetos de prestigio que exhiben escenas simbólicas donde, en apariencia, se incluyen per- sonificaciones de divinidades que son pilares fundamentales en la política del principado de Octaviano, Apolo y Diana.1 El recurso a las alegorías ha sido y sigue siendo un hábito muy frecuente en todos los períodos históricos, su origen está en la Antigüedad, y se ha ido impo- niendo progresivamente como un modo de reivindicación de valores y de difu- * Catedrática de Arqueología.
