  • Candide and Other Stories (Oxford World's Classics)
    oxford world’ s classics CANDIDE and other stories Voltaire was the assumed name of François-Marie Arouet (1694– 1778). Born into a well-to-do Parisian family, he was educated at the leading Jesuit college in Paris. Having refused to follow his father and elder brother into the legal profession he soon won widespread acclaim for Œdipe (1718), the first of some twenty-seven tragedies which he continued to write until the end of his life. His national epic La Henriade (1723) confirmed his reputation as the leading French literary figure of his generation. Following a quarrel with the worthless but influential aristocrat, the Chevalier de Rohan, he was forced into exile in England. This period (1726–8) was particularly formative, and his Letters concern- ing the English Nation (1733) constitute the first major expression of Voltaire’s deism and his subsequent lifelong opposition to religious and political oppression. Following the happy years (1734–43) spent at Cirey with his mistress Mme du Châtelet in the shared pursuit of several intellectual enthusiasms, notably the work of Isaac Newton, he enjoyed a brief interval of favour at court during which he was appointed Historiographer to the King. After the death of Mme du Châtelet in 1749 he finally accepted an invitation to the court of Frederick of Prussia, but left in 1753 when life with this particular enlightened despot became intolerable. In 1755, after temporary sojourn in Colmar, he settled at Les Délices on the outskirts of Geneva. He then moved to nearby Ferney in 1759, the year Candide was published.

  • Life and Works by the Middle of the First Century BCE a Flouris
    FRANK SPEECH, FLAITERY, AND FRIENDSHIP IN PHILODEMUS CLARENCE E. GLAD Philodemus: life and Works By the middle of the first century BCE a flourishing Epicurean com­ munity existed at Naples under the leadership of the Greek teacher Siro. At nearby Herculaneum the Syrian Epicurean, Philodemus of Gadara, the house-philosopher of the influential patron Calpurnius Piso, father-in-law of Julius Caesar, was attracting a wide circle of students. Epicureanism also had its contemporary exponents in Latin-Catius Insuber, Rabirius, C. Amafinius, whose prose tracts enjoyed popularity in Rome and in various Italian towns, and the poet Lucretius. The relationship among the Epicurean groups in Italy is not clear but apparently Siro's group in Naples and that of Philodemus at Herculaneum had an open exchange of views. I Both Philodemus and Siro were former pupils of Zeno of Sidon, the scholarch of the Epicurean school in Athens, and one would expect a certain co-ordination in their efforts in promoting Epicurean views in southern Italy. Both groups cultivated interest in literary and philosophical study, thus escaping the charge traditionally levelled at Epicureans that they maintained a deliberate disregard for ge~eral learning; Cicero, for example, refers to both Siro and Philodemus as the "excellent and learned friends" of Torquatus.2 Philodemus' scholarly interest is evident from the number of pa­ pyrus rolls recovered from Piso's suburban villa at Herculaneum. I We know that the poets of Siro's group, L. Varius Rufus and Quintilius Varus, and possibly Virgil and Plotius Tucca, associated with Philodemus as well, and that the discussion between Philodemus and his fellow Epicureans at Naples extended also to philosophical matters (pHerc.

  • Aeneid Iii: Aeneas’ Voyage Per Imperium
    AENEID III: AENEAS’ VOYAGE PER IMPERIUM by B. TODD THOMASON (Under the Direction of Sarah Spence) ABSTRACT This thesis is an analysis of Aeneas’ stops at Crete, Mt. Etna, Thrace, Buthrotum, Drepanum, Delos, the Strophades, Actium, and Castrum Minervae in Aeneid III. Of these nine landfalls, six are part of the traditional Aeneas legend while three appear to be Vergilian inventions. The purpose of this study is to analyze the actions and experiences of the Trojans in these various locations in an effort to discover why Vergil selected these particular settings for Aeneas’ adventures. The episodes are divided into those that celebrate Rome’s triumph over the Greek East and those that expose the pain, hardship, and even irony inherent in that triumph with the goal of revealing Vergil’s objective assessment of the empire in which he lived.

    ©2014 Sergio Yona THE PSYCHOLOGY OF SATIRE: EPICUREAN ETHICS IN HORACE’S SERMONES BY SERGIO YONA DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Classical Philology in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2014 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Ariana Traill, Chair Professor Antony Augoustakis, Director of Research Professor Kirk Sanders Professor Kirk Freudenburg, Yale University ABSTRACT This study examines the role of Greek philosophy, specifically the ethical doctrines of the Epicurean sect, in Horace’s satiric poetry. It endeavors to highlight the important influence of one of Horace’s contemporaries and neighbor in Italy, the Epicurean philosopher and poet Philodemus of Gadara. This is done through considerations of Horace’s self-portrayal as a qualified moralist who meets Epicurean standards and employs their tools of investigation and correction. A large portion of the study is dedicated to the manner in which he incorporates Epicurean economic and social teachings as communicated and preserved by Philodemus, and to explaining the significance of this for his literary persona in the Sermones. ii For Angela, sine qua non iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to acknowledge in a special way the support and advice offered to me by my adviser, Antony Augoustakis, who read numerous revisions of this paper and provided important guidance throughout. Many thanks also to the members of my committee, Ariana Traill, Kirk Sanders and Kirk Freudenburg, whose insights and suggestions at the outset (as well as at the end) of this project were extremely helpful, and to David Armstrong, who kindly shared some of his forthcoming work on Horace with me.

Epicurus has found it for us, everything is in his books. As Lucretius says in the prooemium to his third book: "As bees in the fiorwey glades sip all the sweets, so we likewise feed on all your golden words ... worthy of life eternal" (3, lOff., Rouse's trans.). What is left to do? One may ask what there is left for the adherents of Epicurus to do ex­ cept to take the master's doctrine to heart and enjoy life like the intermun­ dane gods, free from fear of death and superstition. The right doctrine had, ofcourse, to be preserved and spread, also to the barbarians, like Lu­ ,,,,11 cretius did to the Romans. And the doctrine had to be defended against " old enemies, like Plato, who always could threaten the disciples' peace of mind, and against new enemies who might appear, like the Stoics. Preser­ vation and defence are the two chief elements to be found in Lucretius and the texts from Herculaneum. Colotes wrote anti-commentaries to. the dialogues ofPlato 1. In Philodemus' "On Piety" popular religion is critici­ zed and so are all philosophers from Thales to the Stoics for their theolo­ gical theories 2.

Lucci University of Pennsylvania, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://repository.upenn.edu/edissertations Part of the Classical Literature and Philology Commons Recommended Citation Lucci, Joseph M., "Hidden in Plain Sight: Martial and the Greek Epigrammatic Tradition" (2015).

Hidden in Plain Sight: Martial and the Greek Epigrammatic Tradition Abstract Martial, perhaps the best-known author of Latin epigram, has enjoyed a resurgence of scholarly attention over the past two decades, and much has been made of his self-professed debt to earlier Latin epigrammatists, especially Catullus. Less prevalent, however, has been discussion of how he relates to authors of Greek epigram, which may not be surprising given that Martial passes over the Greek epigrammatic tradition in nearly total silence. This dissertation seeks to explain the silence. Through close readings of specific poems yb Martial, both in themselves and alongside epigrams by his Greek predecessors, I argue that he has fashioned an intentionally ambivalent attitude toward the Greek tradition. Martial contends with a fundamentally Roman literary condundrum – he must negotiate the inevitable and irreconcilable tension between acknowledging the importance of his Greek predecessors and asserting his own claim to superiority over them. But Martial, I suggest, relishes such tensions, depicting Greece and Greek epigram as inconsistent and even bipolar entities which he can then exploit as sources of humor or self-aggrandizement.
