PREFACE. “Count of the Saxon Shore” was a title bestowed by Maximian (colleague of Diocletian in the Empire from 286 to 305 A.D.) on the officer whose task it was to protect the coasts of Britain and Gaul from the attacks of the Saxon pirates. It appears to have existed down to the abandonment of Britain by the Romans. So little is known from history about the last years of the Roman occupation that the writer of fiction has almost a free hand.

  • Internet Resource Booklet, 3Rd Edition
    2 A Publication of the Robert C. Cooley Center for the Study of Early Christianity Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, Charlotte, North Carolina ©April, 2013 Cover picture by James R. Grams, www.game103.net Printed by PerfectImage! 3 Preface The websites offered here are of use not only to theological students and scholars but also to anyone interested in the topics. We hope that you find them as useful as we have for our interest in Biblical and Early Church studies, as well as related fields. While we have explored these sites ourselves, some comments are in order about the care needed in using websites in research. The researcher should be very careful on the web: it is sometimes similar to picking up information on a city street or in a shopping mall. How can we be sure that this information is worth citing? One way to be careful on the web is to look for institutional association or proof of academic authority. When using a website, investigate whether it is associated with a college or university, a research society, study center or institute, a library, publishing company, scholarly journal, and so forth. One might also see if the site manager or author is an academic engaged in ongoing research in the field. These sites are probably well worth using, just as any peer reviewed publication. Even so, the information may be more ‘work in progress’ than published data. Sites that reproduce printed matter can be useful in the same way if the works were published by reputable scholars and publishing companies—check for these (the researcher needs to cite this information along with the website in any case).

  • Xerox University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Cicero and the Moral Education of Youth
    CICERO AND THE MORAL EDUCATION OF YOUTH A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Liberal Studies Georgetown University Washington, D.C. May 1, 2013 Copyright 2013 by Terence J. Husband, M.A.L.S., M.A., Lit. All Rights Reserved ii CICERO AND THE MORAL EDUCATION OF YOUTH Terence J. Husband, M.A.L.S., M.A., Lit. Chair: Rev. John W. O’Malley, S.J. ABSTRACT Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 B.C.), one of the most influential figures of the tempestuous late Roman Republic, has been interpreted across eras, cultures and disciplines to a voluminous degree. Most Ciceronian scholarship pertains to his role in public life, his great gift of rhetoric or his philosophical writings. These important pursuits may overlook another aspect of Cicero’s legacy, his great concern for the ethical and moral development of young people. This awareness reached full expression in the autumn of 44 B.C., in Cicero’s last major work, the De Officiis . The three-book essay was written to his son, Marcus Minor, at a time when the young man was in Greece under the pretense of studying philosophy. He was not his father’s equal as a thinker, lacked his father’s discipline and drifted between career ambitions. Cicero wished to be in Athens to oversee his son’s development but political events at Rome precluded that possibility. The De Officiis is important to study as an example of an honorable classical tradition, a written communication between father and son.

Women in republican and imperial Rome had few rights. Among other things, they could neither vote nor hold magistracies (public offices). Yet, on occasion, some of them influenced politics, either individually or collectively. Women’s contribution to the economy was not negligible. Some elite women owned and ran large businesses, and others were benefactors of their communities. More than a few non-elite women owned small stores. And many free and slave women labored in economically- productive jobs. Whatever historical era or society students address, they should remember that women made up half the population, and they should be encouraged to ask the question: “What were women of all social classes doing?” In surveying the lives of free and slave women in ancient Rome from 200 BCE to 250 CE, students may consider changes that have occurred between that era and our own in the legal, social, political, and cultural position of women.

In his later years he became interested in writing an unbiased account of those times, starting his account just before Tiberius came to the throne.

Galleys with marines were depicted in art from Bronze Age Crete and warships were shown on Greek pottery as early as The Late Helladic IIIC (c. 1190 – 1060 B.C.E) In the Archaic (c. 650 – 480 B.C.E) and Classical (c. 480 – 330 B.C.E.) periods, the ancient Greeks engaged in massive naval actions against the Persians and amongst themselves. During the Hellenistic period, the Diadochi (“successor kings”) amassed massive war fleets with gargantuan capital ships as their vied for dominance over the remnants of Alexander the Great’s short-lived empire. During Rome’s formative years, the Romans engaged in some of the largest battles ever recorded in their wars against Carthage. However, despite this extensive history of naval conflict in the Mediterranean stretching back to the Bronze Age, the evidence for weapons at maritime sites is sparser than might be expected. While this can in part be attributed to the relative infrequency of shipwreck sites compared to terrestrial ones, it is still a lamentable situation.

TINDALL A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Honors in the Major program in Humanities in the College of Arts and Humanities and in the Burnett Honors College at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Fall Term 2012 Thesis Chair: Dr. Harry S. Coverston ABSTRACT Throughout the history of the United States, its inhabitants have looked upon their nation as a special place. In some cases, this has exceeded the natural and simple love of home and country and taken a more extreme form. Important to this bent is the tendency to see the nation, its beliefs, and its actions around the world as divinely sanctioned and inspired in some regard. This is a generally necessary component to the idea of American Exceptionalism, which views the United States as a nation with a divinely imposed mission to spread civilization, freedom, and democracy to the ends of the earth.
