Hadrian and the Greek East
HADRIAN AND THE GREEK EAST: IMPERIAL POLICY AND COMMUNICATION DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Demetrios Kritsotakis, B.A, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Fritz Graf, Adviser Professor Tom Hawkins ____________________________ Professor Anthony Kaldellis Adviser Greek and Latin Graduate Program Copyright by Demetrios Kritsotakis 2008 ABSTRACT The Roman Emperor Hadrian pursued a policy of unification of the vast Empire. After his accession, he abandoned the expansionist policy of his predecessor Trajan and focused on securing the frontiers of the empire and on maintaining its stability. Of the utmost importance was the further integration and participation in his program of the peoples of the Greek East, especially of the Greek mainland and Asia Minor. Hadrian now invited them to become active members of the empire. By his lengthy travels and benefactions to the people of the region and by the creation of the Panhellenion, Hadrian attempted to create a second center of the Empire. Rome, in the West, was the first center; now a second one, in the East, would draw together the Greek people on both sides of the Aegean Sea. Thus he could accelerate the unification of the empire by focusing on its two most important elements, Romans and Greeks. Hadrian channeled his intentions in a number of ways, including the use of specific iconographical types on the coinage of his reign and religious language and themes in his interactions with the Greeks. In both cases it becomes evident that the Greeks not only understood his messages, but they also reacted in a positive way. -

The teachers of the Connecticut Writing Project are exceedingly proud to present the 21st volume of Connecticut Student Writers. The pages of this year’s magazine emanate pride. Over 1,000 Connecticut students, grades kindergarten through twelve, took such pride in their writing that they submitted hundreds of stories, poems, essays, and plays for publication. The 78 pieces selected for publication reflect our students’ strong sense of pride in their imaginations, their writing, and themselves. The Connecticut Writing Project‐Storrs congratulates the young writers whose work is published in the 2009 Connecticut Student Writers. Furthermore, we would like to thank the writers’ parents and teachers for their proud support and encouragement. -

Advances in Apple Breeding for Enhanced Fruit Quality and Resistance to Biotic Stresses: New Varieties for the European Market
PROTECTION OF GENETIC RESOURCES OF POMOLOGICAL PLANTS AND SELECTION OF GENITORS WITH TRAITS VALUABLE FOR SUSTAINABLE FRUIT PRODUCTION Journal of Fruit and Ornamental Plant Research vol. 12, 2004 Special ed. ADVANCES IN APPLE BREEDING FOR ENHANCED FRUIT QUALITY AND RESISTANCE TO BIOTIC STRESSES: NEW VARIETIES FOR THE EUROPEAN MARKET Silviero Sansavini, Franco Donati, Fabrizio Costa and Stefano Tartarini Dipartimento di Colture Arboree, Viale Fanin 46, University of Bologna, ITALY Phone: +39 0512096400 Fax: +39 0512096401 e•mail: [email protected] (Received November 5, 2004/Accepted January 20, 2005) ABSTRACT The current trends and future prospects for apple breeding in the newly enlarged 25•member European Union (EU) are reported. The last twenty years have seen a marked rise in both the number of breeding programmes and of the cultivars they have released. The main objectives of these efforts have focused on resistance to diseases like scab, mildew and fire blight and on enhanced fruit quality in its broadest sense•appearance, sensory traits, storability and shelf•life. While there are many new scab•resistant apples, their appeal to mainstream consumers is notably restricted. Yet the future appears to hold much promise for these programmes. The use of new biotech tools should accelerate the development of novel varieties while saving time and reducing work loads. Indeed, several stations have already introduced marker• assisted selection (MAS) for monogenic traits and QTLs are increasingly important in segregating polygenic traits. Expectations are high that with efforts like the EU’s new HiDRAS Project traits involved in fruit quality (ripening, softening, acids, sugars, flavour, polyphenols and other antioxidant compounds) can be controlled. -
