  • Representing Roman Female Suicide. Phd Thesis
    GUILT, REDEMPTION AND RECEPTION: REPRESENTING ROMAN FEMALE SUICIDE ELEANOR RUTH GLENDINNING, BA (Hons) MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy DECEMBER 2011 Abstract This thesis examines representations of Roman female suicide in a variety of genres and periods from the history and poetry of the Augustan age (especially Livy, Ovid, Horace, Propertius and Vergil), through the drama and history of the early Principate (particularly Seneca and Tacitus), to some of the Church fathers (Tertullian, Jerome and Augustine) and martyr acts of Late Antiquity. The thesis explores how the highly ambiguous and provocative act of female suicide was developed, adapted and reformulated in historical, poetic, dramatic and political narratives. The writers of antiquity continually appropriated this controversial motif in order to comment on and evoke debates about issues relating to the moral, social and political concerns of their day: the ethics of a voluntary death, attitudes towards female sexuality, the uses and abuses of power, and traditionally expected female behaviour. In different literary contexts, and in different periods of Roman history, writers and thinkers engaged in this same intellectual exercise by utilising the suicidal female figure in their works. ii Acknowledgments I would like to thank the Arts and Humanities Research Council for providing the financial assistance necessary for me to carry out this research. The Roman Society also awarded a bursary that allowed me to undertake research at the Fondation Hardt pour I'etude de I'antiquite classique, in Geneva, Switzerland (June 2009). I am also grateful for the CAS Gender Histories bursary award which aided me while making revisions to the original thesis.

  • Map 43 Latium Vetus Compiled by L
    Map 43 Latium Vetus Compiled by L. Quilici and S. Quilici Gigli, 1995 Introduction The environs of Rome have undergone enormous changes from antiquity onwards, caused more by human intervention than by natural phenomena. Changes were already occurring in the archaic period as the region's population increased; these earliest phases of urbanization have been considerably illuminated by recent research. The changes intensified in Late Republican and imperial times, when urbanization reached a level unique for antiquity. Building activity connected with the city extended far enough into the countryside to link with construction centered upon surroundings towns. Thus the towns on the Tiburtine, Praenestine and Alban hills, as well as Ostia and Antium on the coast, were considered suburbs of the metropolis. After antiquity, by contrast, the region was almost deserted except in the hills. In the Late Middle Ages and subsequently, the spread of malaria and the extension of a pastoral economy reduced it to little more than a wilderness littered with the ruins remaining from an earlier era. By definition, there is some difficulty about showing settlements of different periods on a single map. We have marked those that can be located with either certainty or a fair degree of probability. At this scale no attempt is made to include every small settlement, let alone the whole complex infrastructure of the area. But we do mark cultural features notable for their size, state of preservation, or historical significance. These include large Late Republican and imperial villas, and the greatest monumental tombs. Inevitably, many estates, villas and tombs (some of them far from negligible) have had to be omitted.

  • Human Rights, Social Welfare, and Greek Philosophy Legitimate

(USA) Online ISSN: 2249-460x & Print ISSN: 0975-587X Human Rights, Social Welfare, and Greek Philosophy Legitimate Reasons for the Invasion of Britain by Claudius By Tomoyo Takahashi University of California, United States Abstract- In 43 AD, the fourth emperor of Imperial Rome, Tiberius Claudius Drusus, organized his military and invaded Britain. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the legitimate reasons for The Invasion of Britain led by Claudius. Before the invasion, his had an unfortunate life. He was physically distorted, so no one gave him an official position. However, one day, something unimaginable happened. He found himself selected by the Praetorian Guard to be the new emperor of Roma. Many scholars generally agree Claudius was eager to overcome his physical disabilities and low expectations to secure his position as new Emperor in Rome by military success in Britain. Although his personal motivation was understandable, it was not sufficient enough for Imperial Rome to legitimize the invasion of Britain. It is important to separate personal reasons and official reasons.

Astronomical Orientations in the Roman Centuriation of Tunisia Amelia Carolina Sparavigna Politecnico di Torino Abstract The centuriation, also known as limitation, was the method used by the Roman surveyors for subdividing the land in a regular chessboard of fields, created by a grid made of parallel and perpendicular roads and canals. Here we discuss the limitation of Tunisia and the existence of some astronomical orientations of the grids, that is, orientations towards the direction of the sunrise on solstices or moonrise on lunar standstills.

  • Sustainability and ‘The Fall of the Western Roman Empire’: Grain, Labor Markets, and Military Policies
    Sustainability and ‘The Fall of the Western Roman Empire’: Grain, Labor Markets, and Military Policies Master’s Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Graduate Program in Ancient Greek and Roman Studies Dr. Cheryl Walker, Advisor In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Ancient Greek and Roman Studies by Hunter M. Bruno May 2018 Copyright by Hunter Bruno © 2018 ABSTRACT Sustainability and ‘The Fall of the Western Roman Empire’: Grain, Labor Markets, and Military Policies A thesis presented to the Graduate Program in Ancient Greek and Roman Studies Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Waltham, Massachusetts By Hunter M. Bruno The issue of societal sustainability is relevant to both modern and ancient civilizations. Ancient Rome was defined and influenced by the issue of sustainability because it was integral to the fundamental structure of the Roman society. In the 5th Century CE, the fall of the Western Roman Empire took place because of consequences that resulted from the issue of sustainability. The societal factors of grain production, military policy, and labor markets all served to influence the sustainability of the Roman West. Roman military policy defined the nature of the Roman economy and established the type of labor system that it employed. Free and unfree labor markets structured the agrarian economy and formed the Roman system of internal taxation and rent collection. Local and commercial grain producers were relied upon to maintain the populations of the Roman West, uphold the Roman military, and sustain the growing servile populations.

This painful recycling of history should make him—and us—want to know what unhealable wound, what recurrent pathology, what cause too deep for journalists and politicians to discern draws men and women to their deaths again and again in such a place. The history of Rome, as has often been true in the past, has much to teach us.
