Introduction: Medea in Greece and Rome
INTRODUCTION: MEDEA IN GREECE AND ROME A J. Boyle maiusque mari Medea malum. Seneca Medea 362 And Medea, evil greater than the sea. Few mythic narratives of the ancient world are more famous than the story of the Colchian princess/sorceress who betrayed her father and family for love of a foreign adventurer and who, when abandoned for another woman, killed in revenge both her rival and her children. Many critics have observed the com plexities and contradictions of the Medea figure—naive princess, knowing witch, faithless and devoted daughter, frightened exile, marginalised alien, dis placed traitor to family and state, helper-màiden, abandoned wife, vengeful lover, caring and filicidal mother, loving and fratricidal sister, oriental 'other', barbarian saviour of Greece, rejuvenator of the bodies of animals and men, killer of kings and princesses, destroyer and restorer of kingdoms, poisonous stepmother, paradigm of beauty and horror, demi-goddess, subhuman monster, priestess of Hecate and granddaughter of the sun, bride of dead Achilles and ancestor of the Medes, rider of a serpent-drawn chariot in the sky—complex ities reflected in her story's fragmented and fragmenting history. That history has been much examined, but, though there are distinguished recent exceptions, comparatively little attention has been devoted to the specifically 'Roman' Medea—the Medea of the Republican tragedians, of Cicero, Varro Atacinus, Ovid, the younger Seneca, Valerius Flaccus, Hosidius Geta and Dracontius, and, beyond the literary field, the Medea of Roman painting and Roman sculp ture. Hence the present volume of Ramus, which aims to draw attention to the complex and fascinating use and abuse of this transcultural heroine in the Ro man intellectual and visual world.

Early Greek Alchemy, Patronage and Innovation in Late Antiquity CALIFORNIA CLASSICAL STUDIES
Early Greek Alchemy, Patronage and Innovation in Late Antiquity CALIFORNIA CLASSICAL STUDIES NUMBER 7 Editorial Board Chair: Donald Mastronarde Editorial Board: Alessandro Barchiesi, Todd Hickey, Emily Mackil, Richard Martin, Robert Morstein-Marx, J. Theodore Peña, Kim Shelton California Classical Studies publishes peer-reviewed long-form scholarship with online open access and print-on-demand availability. The primary aim of the series is to disseminate basic research (editing and analysis of primary materials both textual and physical), data-heavy re- search, and highly specialized research of the kind that is either hard to place with the leading publishers in Classics or extremely expensive for libraries and individuals when produced by a leading academic publisher. In addition to promoting archaeological publications, papyrolog- ical and epigraphic studies, technical textual studies, and the like, the series will also produce selected titles of a more general profile. The startup phase of this project (2013–2017) was supported by a grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Also in the series: Number 1: Leslie Kurke, The Traffic in Praise: Pindar and the Poetics of Social Economy, 2013 Number 2: Edward Courtney, A Commentary on the Satires of Juvenal, 2013 Number 3: Mark Griffith, Greek Satyr Play: Five Studies, 2015 Number 4: Mirjam Kotwick, Alexander of Aphrodisias and the Text of Aristotle’s Meta- physics, 2016 Number 5: Joey Williams, The Archaeology of Roman Surveillance in the Central Alentejo, Portugal, 2017 Number 6: Donald J.

LE MIE MEMORIE ARTISTICHE Giovanni Pacini
LE MIE MEMORIE ARTISTICHE Giovanni Pacini English translation: Adriaan van der Tang, October 2011 1 2 GIOVANNI PACINI: LE MIE MEMORIE ARTISTICHE PREFACE Pacini’s autobiography Le mie memorie artistiche has been published in several editions. For the present translation the original text has been used, consisting of 148 pages and published in 1865 by G.G. Guidi. In 1872 E. Sinimberghi in Rome published Le mie memorie artistiche di Giovanni Pacini, continuate dall’avvocato Filippo Cicconetti. The edition usually referred to was published in 1875 by Le Monnier in Florence under the title Le mie memorie artistiche: edite ed inedite, edited by Ferdinando Magnani. The first 127 pages contain the complete text of the original edition of 1865 – albeit with a different page numbering – extended with the section ‘inedite’ of 96 pages, containing notes Pacini made after publication of the 1865-edition, beginning with three ‘omissioni’. This 1875- edition covers the years as from 1864 and describes Pacini’s involvement with performances of some of his operas in several minor Italian theatres. His intensive supervision at the first performances in 1867 of Don Diego di Mendoza and Berta di Varnol was described as well, as were the executions of several of his cantatas, among which the cantata Pacini wrote for the unveiling of the Rossini- monument in Pesaro, his oratorios, masses and instrumental works. Furthermore he wrote about the countless initiatives he developed, such as the repatriation of Bellini’s remains to Catania and the erection of a monument in Arezzo in honour of the great poet Guido Monaco, much adored by him.

The Scramble Round 4 Finals
The Scramble Round 4 Finals 1. One of these artifacts with arms is known as a tevavor, while Momik, credited with the design of Noravank Monastery, designed many of these. The most extensive collection of these artifacts is at Noratus, while the biggest one in the world is located in Jugha, in modernday Azerbaijan. Listed in 2000 under UNESCO, these objects often have rosettes and botanical motifs, in addition to crosses. For the point, name these Armenian “crossstones” which are ubiquitious in Armenian cemeteries. ANSWER: khachkars 2. The last speaker of one of these languages died in 1992 and had lived in the Balikesir region of Turkey. In one of these languages, referring to wara and bara would suggest that one is speaking directly to a man about his horse and in the second case, a woman. Many speakers of these languages now live in Jordan, Iraq, and Egypt, and Ubykh has no native speakers. Including such languages as Abaza and Kabardian, the eastern group includes the Nakh languages. For the point, name this language group. ANSWER: Northwest Caucasian languages 3.One musical group performing in this language was called Zugasi Berepe, whose founder Kazim Koyuncu (Koyoonjew), sang a popular song called “Didou Nana.” A newspaper in this language, Agani Murutsxi (murutskhi) recalls Iskenderi Tzitasi’s 1929 newspaper, Mch’ita Murutsxi, or “Red Star.” Spoken in towns like Findikli and Hopa, it is written in a Latin alphabet, and most of its speakers are Muslim. For the point, name this Georgian language, spoken in Turkey mostly near Rize (reezay).

Passion, Transgression, and Mythical Women in Roman Painting
The Lineup: Passion, Transgression, and Mythical Women in Roman Painting BETTINA BERGMANN Mount Holyoke College [email protected] Pasiphae, Phaedra, Scylla, Canace, Myrrha – five mythological women who commited crimes of adultery, incest, treason, bestiality, and suicide – once adorned the walls of a small room in a second-century villa outside Rome. About one third lifesize and dressed in pastel colors, each figure stood alone against a white background, identified by the Latinized Greek name painted beside her head as well as by a posture of distress and a tell- ing attribute of self-destruction. Today the five women hang in separate, gilded frames in the small Sala degli Nozze Aldrobrandini of the Vatican Museums, where they are routinely overlooked by visitors gazing at the more famous Roman frescoes above them, the Aldobrandini Wedding and the Odyssey Landscapes1. 1 — This was held as a keynote lecture at the conference “Feminism & Classics VII: Visions in Seattle”, in May 2016. I am grateful to Jacqueline Fabre-Serris and Judith Hallett for their invitation to publish it and to Kathleen Coleman, Susanna McFadden, and Claudia Lega for their help. The frescoes have received little scholarly attention: Biondi (1843) 14-25; Nogara (1907) 55-59; Andreae (1963) 353-355; Micheli (2010). Since my lecture a succinct description of the frescoes has been published in Newby (2016) 189-194. EuGeStA - n°7 - 2017 200 BETTINA BERGMANN This distinctive group poses an immediate question: why would a second-century villa owner wish to embellish a domestic space with five (and perhaps more) anguished females? To modern eyes it seems puzz- ling that interior decoration would showcase dangerous women holding the ropes and daggers with which they will shed their own blood.

Horror and Amazement: Colossal Mythological Statue Groups and the New Rhetoric of Images in Late Second and Early Third Century Rome
Originalveröffentlichung in: Barbara Borg (Hrsg.), Paideia: The World of the Second Sophistic, Berlin 2004, S. 105-129 Horror and amazement: Colossal mythological statue groups and the new rhetoric of images in late second and early third century Rome RALF VON DEN HOFF Cultural phenomena of the second and early third century CE, which are con- ventionally placed in the category of ‘Second Sophistic’, have been studied both in terms of their socio-political implications, and as a discourse of identity con- struction, especially among the elites of the Greek east.1 In this context, only some aspects of the visual arts have been analyzed as signs of a ‘Greek Renais- sance.’2 In a broader sense and as far as the city of Rome was concerned, the nexus of visual culture and the Second Sophistic was only of minor interest.3 Thus, it is still a desideratum to describe this relationship beyond references to paideia in the restricted sense of knowledge of Classical Greek culture and to concepts like ‘Greek influences’ or classicism, which were elements of Roman culture long before the second century CE.4 It is clear that the Second Sophistic is also defined by new interests in elaborated form, rhetorical performances and entertainment. Hence, it is fruitful to compare visual and textual phenomena in terms of their modes of depiction and means of addressing the audience – that ———————— 1 See in particular: Bowersock, 1969; Bowie 1970; Anderson, 1993; Woolf, 1994; Swain, 1996; Schmitz, 1997; Bowie, 2000; Goldhill, 2001; Stephan, 2002, 199-222. 2 Walker, 1989; see also von Mosch, 1999 (for the relevance of coins); Galli, 2001 (for sanctuar- ies and images of pepaideumenoi); Baumer, 2001, 90-93 (for a new interest in classical votive re- liefs); cf.
