  • Catullus, Archilochus and the 'Motto'. Two Poems of Catullus Have Long Been Compared with Fragments of Ar- Chilochus
    I TWO CATULLIAN QUESTIONS L Catullus, Archilochus and the 'motto'. Two poems of Catullus have long been compared with fragments of Ar- chilochus. First, Catullus 40 and Archilochus 172 West (fully discussed by Hendrickson "CP" 20, 1925, 155); qwenan te mala mew, miselle Ravide, agit praccípítem in rrcos iambos ? quid dcus rtbi nonbene ad.vocatus ve cordcm parat excímre rimn? an uî penenias ín oravulgi? quidvis? qunlubet esse natus oPns? eris, quando quidcm mcos cttnores cwn longavoluisti amare poena. n&rep Auróppa, noîov Érppóoco tó6e tíg oùg rccr,p{epe epwctg fig cò rpìv ;1pfipqoOa; vOv òè 6l rol.ùq úocoîot gcwérrt fflog. This is known to be the beginning of a poem, since Hephaestion, who quotes l-2, only adduces the beginnings of poems; 2I0 ríg &pa òaíprov (quis d.eus) raì téoo 1oX,oúpevoE may well come from the same context. Moreover, as Hendrickson remarks, Lucian's (Pseudol. 1) paraphrase of the context of 223, which he says was addressed to one of toò6 repureteîg é,oopévoog (cf. praecípítem) rfi 1ol.fr t6v iópporv crúto0 who had re- viled the poet, seems to indicate that it went with 172; ín that case Lucian's 6 rcróòatpov &v0prone=míselle, and aiticq (qtoOvtc rai ùro0é- oeqtoî6 iúpporq will help to explain Catullus' application of iantbi to hen- decasyllables (though it does not need much explanation; cf. 54.6 and fr. 3). If Catullus had Archilochus in mind, he diverged from him in the last two lines, which envisage a situaúon quite different from that between Archilo- chus and Lycambes; the poem of Archilochus seems to have continued at considerable length and included the fable of the fox and the eagle (172- 181).

  • Attic Black Figure from Samothrace
    ATTIC BLACK FIGURE FROM SAMOTHRACE (PLATES 51-56) 1 RAGMENTS of two large black-figure column-kraters,potted and painted about j1t the middle of the sixth century, have been recovered during recent excavations at Samothrace.' Most of these fragments come from an earth fill used for the terrace east of the Stoa.2 Non-joining fragments found in the area of the Arsinoeion in 1939 and in 1949 belong to one of these vessels.3 A few fragments of each krater show traces of burning, for either the clay is gray throughout or the glaze has cracked because of intense heat. The surface of many fragments is scratched and pitted in places, both inside and outside; the glaze and the accessory colors, especially the white, have sometimes flaked. and the foot of a man to right, then a woman A.

  • Amazons, Thracians, and Scythians , Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies, 24:2 (1983:Summer) P.105
    SHAPIRO, H. A., Amazons, Thracians, and Scythians , Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies, 24:2 (1983:Summer) p.105 Amazons, Thracians, and Scythians H A. Shapiro HE AMAZONS offer a remarkable example of the lacunose and T fragmented state of ancient evidence for many Greek myths. For while we hear virtually nothing about them in extant litera­ ture before the mid-fifth century, they are depicted in art starting in the late eighth! and are extremely popular, especially in Attica, from the first half of the sixth. Thus all we know about the Greeks' con­ ception of the Amazons in the archaic period comes from visual rep­ resentations, not from written sources, and it would be hazardous to assume that various 'facts' and details supplied by later writers were familiar to the sixth-century Greek. The problem of locating the Amazons is a good case in point. Most scholars assume that Herakles' battle with the Amazons, so popular on Attic vases, took place at the Amazon city Themiskyra in Asia Minor, on the river Thermodon near the Black Sea, where most ancient writers place it.2 But the earliest of these is Apollodoros (2.5.9), and, as I shall argue, alternate traditions locating the Ama­ zons elsewhere may have been known to the archaic vase-painter and viewer. An encounter with Amazons figures among the exploits of three important Greek heroes, and each story entered the Attic vase­ painters' repertoire at a different time in the course of the sixth century. First came Herakles' battle to obtain the girdle of Hippolyte (although the prize itself is never shown), his ninth labor.

  • 15 Robertson 1502
    MARTIN ROBERTSON Charles Martin Robertson 1911–2004 MARTIN ROBERTSON was born in Pangbourne on 11 September 1911, the first child of Donald Robertson, who had been appointed that year to an Assistant Lectureship in Classics at Trinity College, Cambridge, and Petica (née Coursolles Jones). The family, including his brother Giles who was born in 1913, lived in Huntingdon Road in Cambridge, moving after the First World War to Bateman Street overlooking the Botanic Gardens. Although Donald wanted his sons to follow him at Westminster School, Petica, a strong personality who ran a salon for the literary and artistic personalities of the day, wished them to stay at home, and, after a time at a prep school, they attended The Leys School in Cambridge. Martin (he was always ‘Martin’, never ‘Charles’, to his parents and his children) learned to read early and is reputed to have read from the newspaper, when four years old, to the noted Cambridge mathematician G. H. Hardy. His love of literature was deep and abiding, but he was not a practical boy nor good at physical pursuits. His father loved riding and arranged for Martin to have riding lessons; Martin did not like the instructor and the lessons were not a success. He found his father rather oppressive and felt that he was an inferior reproduction of him. Whether he would have fared better at the piano is unknown, as Petica decided that Giles was the musi- cal one and denied Martin the chance. He never learned to drive but enjoyed cycling (in his late sixties, on retirement from his Oxford chair and moving house to Cambridge, he cycled all the way from the one to the other).

  • Volgei Nescia: on the Paradox of Praising Women's Invisibility*
    Matthew Roller Volgei nescia: On the Paradox of Praising Women’s Invisibility* A funerary plaque of travertine marble, originally from a tomb on the Via Nomentana outside of Rome and dating to the middle of the first century BCE, commemorates the butcher Lucius Aurelius Hermia, freedman of Lucius, and his wife Aurelia Philematio, likewise a freedman of Lucius. The rectangular plaque is divided into three panels of roughly equal width. The center panel bears a relief sculpture depicting a man and woman who stand and face one another; the woman raises the man’s right hand to her mouth and kisses it. The leftmost panel, adjacent to the male figure, is inscribed with a metrical text of two elegiac couplets. It represents the husband Aurelius’ words about his wife, who has predeceased him and is commemorated here. The rightmost panel, adjacent to the female figure, is likewise inscribed with a metrical text of three and one half elegiac couplets. It represents the wife Aurelia’s words: she speaks of her life and virtues in the past tense, as though from beyond the grave.1 The figures depicted in relief presumably represent the married individuals who are named and speak in the inscribed texts; the woman’s hand-kissing gesture seems to confirm this, as it represents a visual pun on the cognomen Philematio/Philematium, “little kiss.”2 This relief, now in the British Museum, is well known and has received extensive scholarly discussion.3 Here, I wish to focus on a single phrase in the text Aurelia is represented as speaking.

    GREEK DRAMATIC MONUMENTS FROM THE ATHENIAN AGORA AND PNYX (PLATES 65-68) T HE excavations of the Athenian Agora and of the Pnyx have produced objects dating from the early fifth century B.C. to the fifth century after Christ which can be termed dramatic monuments because they represent actors, chorusmen, and masks of tragedy, satyr play and comedy. The purpose of the present article is to interpret the earlier part of this series from the point of view of the history of Greek drama and to compare the pieces with other monuments, particularly those which can be satisfactorily dated.' The importance of this Agora material lies in two facts: first, the vast majority of it is Athenian; second, much of it is dated by the context in which it was found. Classical tragedy and satyr play, Hellenistic tragedy and satyr play, Old, Middle and New Comedy will be treated separately. The transition from Classical to Hellenistic in tragedy or comedy is of particular interest, and the lower limit has been set in the second century B.C. by which time the transition has been completed. The monuments are listed in a catalogue at the end. TRAGEDY AND SATYR PLAY CLASSICAL: A 1-A5 HELLENISTIC: A6-A12 One of the earliest, if not the earliest, representations of Greek tragedy is found on the fragmentary Attic oinochoe (A 1; P1. 65) dated about 470 and painted by an artist closely related to Hermonax. Little can be added to Miss Talcott's interpre- tation. The order of the fragments is A, B, C as given in Figure 1 of Miss T'alcott's article.

  • Red-Figured Pottery from Corinth Plate 64
    RED-FIGUREDPOTTERY FROM CORINTH SACRED SPRING AND ELSEWHERE (PLATES 63-74) THE PRESENT ARTICLE publishes the inventoried pieces of Attic red-figured pottery discovered during the excavations of the Sacred Spring. Four fragments, 49-52, belong to an unidentified fabric which does not appear to be Attic. The article also includes fragments from the Peribolos of Apollo and the Lechaion Road East, and ends with two miscellaneous sherds and an importantstemless cup. This is, in fact, the first of two articles which will cover most of the Attic red figure that has been found at Corinth since 1957.1The second article will deal with the pottery from the recent exca- vations in the central and southwesternarea of the Forum. Some 71 pieces, mainly fragments, are presented here: 52 (1-52) come from the Sacred Spring, 6 (53-58) from the Peribolos of Apollo, 10 (59-68) from excavations below Roman Shop V, east of the Lechaion Road, 3 (69-71) from various findspots. The catalogue is arrangedby shape and, within each shape, by date so far as possible. A. SACRED SPRING (Pls. 63-69) The early excavations in the Sacred Spring were published by B. H. Hill. The area was re-examined from 1968 to 1970 and again in 1972, during which eight architectural phases were distinguished, the earliest beginning in the later 8th century, the latest ending with the destruction of Corinth in 146 B.C.2 All the inventoried Attic red figure from the new excavations is listed in the following catalogue, but other fragments, of less significance, are kept in the relevant Corinth pottery lots.
