'^THE ARGONAUTICA OF GAIUS VALERIUS FLACCUS (SETINUS BALBUS BOOK I TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH PROSE WITH INTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY H. G. BLOMFIELD, M.A., I.C.S. LATE SCHOLAR OF EXETER COLLEGE, OXFORD OXFORD B. H. BLACKWELL, BROAD STREET 1916 NEW YORK LONGMANS GREEN & CO. FOURTH AVENUE AND 30TH STREET TO MY WIFE h2 ; ; ; — CANDIDO LECTORI Reader, I'll spin you, if you please, A tough yarn of the good ship Argo, And how she carried o'er the seas Her somewhat miscellaneous cargo; And how one Jason did with ease (Spite of the Colchian King's embargo) Contrive to bone the fleecy prize That by the dragon fierce was guarded, Closing its soporific eyes By spells with honey interlarded How, spite of favouring winds and skies, His homeward voyage was retarded And how the Princess, by whose aid Her father's purpose had been thwarted, With the Greek stranger in the glade Of Ares secretly consorted, And how his converse with the maid Is generally thus reported : ' Medea, the premature decease Of my respected parent causes A vacancy in Northern Greece, And no one's claim 's as good as yours is To fill the blank : come, take the lease. Conditioned by the following clauses : You'll have to do a midnight bunk With me aboard the S.S. Argo But there 's no earthly need to funk, Or think the crew cannot so far go : They're not invariably drunk, And you can act as supercargo. — CANDIDO LECTORI • Nor should you very greatly care If sometimes you're a little sea-sick; There's no escape from mal-de-mer, Why, storms have actually made me sick : Take a Pope-Roach, and don't despair ; The best thing simply is to be sick.'

FELLOW OF THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF ARCHITECTS AUTHOR OF THE RENAISSANCE UNDER THE VALOIS NEW YORK D. APPLETON AND COMPANY 1896 Copyright, 1896, By D. APPLETON AND COMPANY. INTRODUCTORY. Architecture, like philosophy, dates from the morning of the mind's history. Primitive man found Nature beautiful to look at, wet and uncomfortable to live in; a shelter became the first desideratum; and hence arose " the most useful of the fine arts, and the finest of the useful arts." Its history, however, does not begin until the thought of beauty had insinuated itself into the mind of the builder. -
Il Pugilato Nell'antichità Tra Storia, Letteratura E Arte
Quaderni della Società Italiana di Storia dello Sport IL PUGILATO NELL’ANTICHITÀ TRA STORIA, LETTERATURA E ARTE Livio Toschi [email protected] Nell’Iliade Omero descrive così mirabilmente i giochi funebri voluti da Achille in onore di Patroclo, da giustificare l’affermazione di Friedrich Schiller: «Non ha vissuto invano chi ha potuto leggere il XXIII canto dell’Iliade»1. È questa la prima “cronaca” di un agone sportivo. Dopo aver arso il corpo dell’amico su una pira innalzata con il legname di «aeree querce» del monte Ida, Achille bandisce i giochi funebri (agones epitaphioi), che dota di ricchi premi (agones chrematitai). I testi antichi sono pieni di agones epitaphioi, disputati con modalità più o meno simili in ogni tempo e luogo del mondo greco: dagli athla epi Pelia sulla spiaggia di Iolco2, cantati da Stesicoro, ai giochi in onore di Ettore e di Achille a Troia, descritti dagli autori postomerici. 1. Letteratura Gli agones dell’Iliade hanno luogo nella pianura di Troia presso il fiume Scamandro e vicino alla spiaggia dove sorge l’accampamento dei Greci. Le gare sono otto (cinque delle quali ritroveremo nelle antiche Olimpiadi): la corsa dei cocchi, il pugilato, la lotta, la corsa a piedi, il duello in armi (con elmo, lancia e scudo), il lancio del disco, la gara di tiro con l’arco alla colomba, una non meglio definita «prova delle lance». Nella gara di pugilato (pyx, pygme o pygmachia), i cui premi sono una mula per il vincitore e una coppa per lo sconfitto, Epeo batte facilmente Eurialo3. I due indossano una sorta di cintura intorno ai reni (zoma) e fasciano le mani con strisce di cuoio (himantes)4. -
DE NOVIS LIBRIS IUDICIA A. H. M. KESSELS, Studies on the Dream In
DE NOVIS LIBRIS IUDICIA A. H. M. KESSELS, Studies on the dream in Greek Literature, Utrecht, Hes Publishers, 1978. XI, 268 pp. Under the title Studies on the dream in Greek literature Dr. A. H. M. Kessels offers, first, an Introduction on previous theories and literature about dreams in Homer and on the special character of the Homeric poems and its consequences for the study of dreams, secondly in three chapters ("The dream in Homer", "The pattern of the Homeric dream-scene", "Conclusions"), a detailed analysis of dreams and dream-references in Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, and finally, two more general "studies", entitled "Greek terminology for `dream' and 'dreaming ...... The dream in simile and metaphor" . -It would have helped the reader if the title of the book reflected more adequately the author's scope and material.- In this review I confine myself to focusing the attention of the reader on some Homeric utterances on dreams, on the interpreta- tion of which we have not reached agreement, despite ample and pleasant discussions after finding out that we were working in the same field. Whether the dveipox6Xoq in Il. I, 62-68 is to be con- sidered as a skilled interpreter of other people's dreams, or as the dreamer by the inspiration of a god, intentionally lying down for a mantic sleep, seems to be left vague, unless we find in the fact that no dreams of others are mentioned here an indication for a "Traumseher" rather than for a "Traumdeuter", as Mr. Kessels s does (p. 25 ff). To me both the term oneiropolos and the situation which he is supposed to clarify allow for no more than a mantis who is specialized in, who deals with dreams, when asked for a ritual ad- vice, no matter whether those dreams are dreamt by himself, or by others (either involved in the situation or taken from mantic collec- tions of terata and dreams). -
Queen Arsinoë II, the Maritime Aphrodite and Early Ptolemaic Ruler Cult
ΑΡΣΙΝΟΗ ΕΥΠΛΟΙΑ Queen Arsinoë II, the Maritime Aphrodite and Early Ptolemaic Ruler Cult Carlos Francis Robinson Bachelor of Arts (Hons. 1) A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2019 Historical and Philosophical Inquiry Abstract Queen Arsinoë II, the Maritime Aphrodite and Early Ptolemaic Ruler Cult By the early Hellenistic period a trend was emerging in which royal women were deified as Aphrodite. In a unique innovation, Queen Arsinoë II of Egypt (c. 316 – 270 BC) was deified as the maritime Aphrodite, and was associated with the cult titles Euploia, Akraia, and Galenaië. It was the important study of Robert (1966) which identified that the poets Posidippus and Callimachus were honouring Arsinoë II as the maritime Aphrodite. This thesis examines how this new third-century BC cult of ‘Arsinoë Aphrodite’ adopted aspects of Greek cults of the maritime Aphrodite, creating a new derivative cult. The main historical sources for this cult are the epigrams of Posidippus and Callimachus, including a relatively new epigram (Posidippus AB 39) published in 2001. This thesis demonstrates that the new cult of Arsinoë Aphrodite utilised existing traditions, such as: Aphrodite’s role as patron of fleets, the practice of dedications to Aphrodite by admirals, the use of invocations before sailing, and the practice of marine dedications such as shells. In this way the Ptolemies incorporated existing religious traditions into a new form of ruler cult. This study is the first attempt to trace the direct relationship between Ptolemaic ruler cult and existing traditions of the maritime Aphrodite, and deepens our understanding of the strategies of ruler cult adopted in the early Hellenistic period. -
