Julia Forjanic Klapproth EMWA President The Journal of the European Medical Writers Association 2 Vol. 17, No. 1, 2008 TheWrite Stuff From the guest editor’s desk: 10th Anniversary issue: Remembrance of things past by Barry Drees I think that it is somehow fitting that Elise should reach of things past’, each presenting the specific aspect we back into the dim and distant past, and ask an aged EMWA know best.

After all, as David Ben Gurion (first Of course, history of any kind poses definite problems. president of Israel) said, “Anyone who believes you can’t First of all, as Geoff Hall notes in his article on the history change history has never tried to write his memoirs”. of the association, does anyone even care? I certainly do and have always firmly believed that we cannot understand the present or even hope to be able to reduce trouble in the Barry Drees future if we are ignorant of our own history. Most of you Guest editor [email protected] will have heard the famous quote by George Santayana (Spanish Philosopher), “Those who cannot learn from his- tory are doomed to repeat it”, but I also like David McCulloch’s view (US ‘celebrity’ historian), “History is a guide to navigation in perilous times. History is who we are and why we are the way we are”.

It was hard to believe that they were talking about the Montpellier 2001 10th Spring Conference 12th EMWA Conference same event. I believe that therein lies the answer to this Brighton 2001 3rd Autumn Meeting 13th EMWA Conference th th question—the best history contains as many different Prague 2002 11 Spring Conference 14 EMWA Conference Amsterdam 2002 4th Autumn Meeting 15th EMWA Conference views as possible.

  • Latin Literature

    Latin Literature

    Latin Literature By J. W. Mackail Latin Literature I. THE REPUBLIC. I. ORIGINS OF LATIN LITERATURE: EARLY EPIC AND TRAGEDY. To the Romans themselves, as they looked back two hundred years later, the beginnings of a real literature seemed definitely fixed in the generation which passed between the first and second Punic Wars. The peace of B.C. 241 closed an epoch throughout which the Roman Republic had been fighting for an assured place in the group of powers which controlled the Mediterranean world. This was now gained; and the pressure of Carthage once removed, Rome was left free to follow the natural expansion of her colonies and her commerce. Wealth and peace are comparative terms; it was in such wealth and peace as the cessation of the long and exhausting war with Carthage brought, that a leisured class began to form itself at Rome, which not only could take a certain interest in Greek literature, but felt in an indistinct way that it was their duty, as representing one of the great civilised powers, to have a substantial national culture of their own. That this new Latin literature must be based on that of Greece, went without saying; it was almost equally inevitable that its earliest forms should be in the shape of translations from that body of Greek poetry, epic and dramatic, which had for long established itself through all the Greek- speaking world as a common basis of culture. Latin literature, though artificial in a fuller sense than that of some other nations, did not escape the general law of all literatures, that they must begin by verse before they can go on to prose.

    A Book Circle

    A BOOK CIRCLE Compiled by J. L. Herrera With special thanks to Peter Jones, Penny Parrish, Anita Clarkson, Rose Brown, Marie-France Sagot, Liz Field, Dawn Gregory, Margaret Burkett, Ken Herrera and Santi Mariso Introduction This book began as an overflow of ideas from A Writer’s Calendar and it uses the same format though I’ve reduced the number of names. But as it grew I realised it was not so much the result of recording in reasonably readable form the bits and pieces I’d been saving, chaotically, in exercise-books for years but an excuse to explore areas in which I might not have dared to tread a few years ago. My mother once said she hated receiving criticism but that upon reflection it was always worth having. I agree. But it also means that where once I would have hesitated to criticise anyone, unless they’d been dead for many years, I now feel I have an equal right to weigh into contemporary questions and debates and my thoughts, even if timid rather than profound, have the advantage of coming from a source that is often ignored except in those brief snippets where someone with a camera or a microphone goes out into the street and asks people what they are reading (and if anyone should happen to push a microphone under my nose it would be just my luck to be reading something terribly dull like my bus timetable or last week’s Mercury—). So here are not only more little mouthfuls but also some op-ed style pieces on which to browse.

Budapest, 04.12.2010 …………………………………………………… Ákos Brunner CEU eTD Collection CEU eTD Collection ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Most of all I would like to thank my supervisor Gábor Betegh, without whose invaluable guidance, constant dedicated support and, at times, patience this work would never have been written. I am also deeply thankful to Brad Inwood for his kind encouragement and illuminating discussions on many subjects. It was during my unforgettable period of research in Toronto under his inspiring supervision that the basic ideas of my dissertation were conceived. Many thanks also to István Bodnár for helping me in many ways over the years. I would like to acknowledge the debt I owe to all my teachers and colleagues at the Department of Philosophy at CEU; I have greatly benefitted from the three years of study and coursework here. I also owe to the CEU – University of Toronto Exchange Program for enabling me to spend the fall term of 2005 at the University of Toronto, and to the TOPOI Excellence Cluster for granting me the opportunity to spend January and February of 2010 at Humboldt University of Berlin.

  • Cicéron Bafouille

    Cicéron Bafouille

    Cicéron bafouille JEAN-FRANÇOIS GÉRAUD MAÎTRE DE CONFÉRENCES EN HISTOIRE CONTEMPORAINE CRESOI, UNIVERSITÉ DE LA RÉUNION « Hélas la vérité ne suffit pas. Souvent, c’est même la pire chose pour la défense d’une cause. C’est pour ça que nous avons la rhétorique. La beauté, le pouvoir des mots »1. Le rapprochement de ces deux termes semble relever de l'incongruité : comment Cicéron, l'orateur maître de son métier, le théoricien de l’éloquence et de ses ficelles, aurait-il pu bafouiller ? Ne sait-on pas au contraire qu'il a multiplié les discours, et, du moins les commentaires de ce terrifiant livre de chevet que furent les Lettres Latines2 nous l'affirment, qu'il remporta — presque — autant de succès qu'il prononça de plaidoiries ? Non, l'image d'un Cicéron bafouilleur nous semble une contrevérité, bien plus, elle relève de l’oxymore. Or c'est méconnaître une première réalité : parmi ses magnifiques discours, celui qui passe pour un modèle du genre, le Pro Milone3, écrit pour défendre le tribun Milon dans l'accusation du meurtre de Clodius, ne fut jamais prononcé ; car on ignore souvent cette seconde réalité : le jour de ce procès, au moment de plaider, déstabilisé par les huées de l’auditoire, Cicéron fut pris de bafouillement4. Ainsi, l'icône qui semblait, par la parole, avoir informé tous nos orateurs, du filandreux Lamartine à François Mitterrand, en passant par Gambetta, Jaurès, Clémenceau, Edgar Faure, s'effrite, et la république romaine, dont on sentait confusément qu’elle était l’aïeule de notre propre république, avoue ses faiblesses.

  • Greetings from the Chair

    Greetings from the Chair

    Yale Department of Classics Summer 2019 Greetings from the Chair: I have been reflecting how much I enjoy this annual opportunity to review the activities of the department over the past year in the quiet of early Summer. The helter-skelter of the academic year does not allow much time to sit around admiring each other’s achievements or the steady, unsung work that goes into teaching, mentorship, and collegiality, but the fruits of this work are everywhere apparent. Uppermost in my mind are the successes of this year’s graduating class, whose achievements we celebrated at a Commencement reception on May 20th. Ten Senior Classics majors graduated this May: Christopher Bracken, Daniel Flesch, Sam Lee, Flora Lipsky, Katie Liptak, Daphne Martin, Caderyn Owen Jones, Katie Shy, Lucy Western, and Connor Wood. We will miss the unstoppable creativity, Classics majors Lina Kapp (’20) and Samir Al-Ali (’21) field questions laughter, and serious brilliance that they brought to their from the audience before the start of Novice Finals studies. Their immediate careers post-Yale are as manifold as their talents, including High School teaching, a Light Philology Day on April 11th-12th on the theme of “The Fellowship in China, a Mellon Fellowship at Cambridge Counsel of Bookworms: Constructions of the Book in University, Journalism, and Law School. Imperial Greek Writing.” This two-day event involved On the graduate side, congratulations are due to presentations in the Beinecke from Dexter Brown, Kyle Drs. Rachel Love, Cynthia “Cara” Polsley, and Jennifer Conrau-Lewis, Erynn Kim, Joe Morgan, and Sylva Weintritt, who received their Ph.D.
