  • Profile of a Plant: the Olive in Early Medieval Italy, 400-900 CE By
    Profile of a Plant: The Olive in Early Medieval Italy, 400-900 CE by Benjamin Jon Graham A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2014 Doctoral Committee: Professor Paolo Squatriti, Chair Associate Professor Diane Owen Hughes Professor Richard P. Tucker Professor Raymond H. Van Dam © Benjamin J. Graham, 2014 Acknowledgements Planting an olive tree is an act of faith. A cultivator must patiently protect, water, and till the soil around the plant for fifteen years before it begins to bear fruit. Though this dissertation is not nearly as useful or palatable as the olive’s pressed fruits, its slow growth to completion resembles the tree in as much as it was the patient and diligent kindness of my friends, mentors, and family that enabled me to finish the project. Mercifully it took fewer than fifteen years. My deepest thanks go to Paolo Squatriti, who provoked and inspired me to write an unconventional dissertation. I am unable to articulate the ways he has influenced my scholarship, teaching, and life. Ray Van Dam’s clarity of thought helped to shape and rein in my run-away ideas. Diane Hughes unfailingly saw the big picture—how the story of the olive connected to different strands of history. These three people in particular made graduate school a humane and deeply edifying experience. Joining them for the dissertation defense was Richard Tucker, whose capacious understanding of the history of the environment improved this work immensely. In addition to these, I would like to thank David Akin, Hussein Fancy, Tom Green, Alison Cornish, Kathleen King, Lorna Alstetter, Diana Denney, Terre Fisher, Liz Kamali, Jon Farr, Yanay Israeli, and Noah Blan, all at the University of Michigan, for their benevolence.

    THE WHOLE WORKS OF EOGER ASCHAM, NOW FIRST COLLECTED AND REVISED, WITH A LIFE OF THE AUTHOR; BY THE REV. DR. GILES, FORMERLY FELLOW OF C. C. C. , OXFORD. VOL. III. LONDON: JOHN RUSSELL SMITH, SOHO SQUARE. 3864. PRINTED BY BOWDEN AND BRAWN, 13, PRINCES STREET, LITTLE QUEEN STREET, HOLBORN, LONDON. PKEFACE TO VOL. III. OF the first work contained in this volume, "A Report and Discourse of the Affairs and State of Germany, <kc" I have seen but one edition afac-simile separate ; of its title is prefixed to our reprint of the work. It is in small quarto, and has no date; but it is known to have been printed in 1552, and again in 1570. The copy which I have seen, is in the British Museum, and has furnished, besides many smaller cor rections, more than one whole sentence that had been omitted in the last edition of the English Works, 8vo, 1815. 2. The School-master also is here printed from the " English Works of Roger Ascham," collated through out with the earlier editions, which have furnished several important corrections of the text. This work was first published by Mrs Ascham, small 8vo, 1570, after her husband's death : a fac-simile of IV PREFACE. the title to that edition is prefixed to the work in the present reprint. The School-master was again printed in 1571, 1573, 1579, 1583, 1589, these editions vary very little the one from the other. It was again published, with notes by the Rev. James Upton, London, 8vo, 1711, and reprinted 1743.

Without Dr. T., Eric, Jay, and Maryanne, my academic career would have never begun and I will forever be grateful for the opportunities they gave me. At Michigan, guidance in negotiating the administrative side of the PhD given by Kathleen and Michelle has been invaluable, and I have treasured the conversations I have had with them and Terre, Diana, and Molly about gardening and travelling. The network of gardeners at Project Grow has provided me with hundreds of hours of joy and a respite from the stress of the academy. I owe many thanks to my fellow graduate students, not only for attending the brown bags and Three Field Talks I gave that helped shape this project, but also for their astute feedback, wonderful camaraderie, and constant support over our many years together.

A freeborn citizen son of a freedman of Antoninus Pius and an Ulpia could not have been born before 138. If it can be assumed that he lived for 36 years, reaching the rank of centurion in the army and a post in charge of pack animals, this inscription must date from the last years of M. Aurelius or even the reign of Commodus. His mother Ulpia Marcellina, with a nomen from two reigns earlier than that of her husband and a cognomen that is rarely servile, was most probably freeborn, whether or not the latter had been manumitted at the time of their marriage. 1402 T.

  • Freedom from Passions in Augustine
    UNIVERSITY OF HELSINKI FACULTY OF THEOLOGY FINLAND FREEDOM FROM PASSIONS IN AUGUSTINE Gao Yuan 高 源 ACADEMIC DISSERTATION To be publicly discussed, by due permission of the Faculty of Theology at the University of Helsinki in Lecture Hall 13, University Main Building, on 4 November 2015, at 12 noon Helsinki 2015 ISBN 978-951-51-1625-3 (paperback) ISBN 978-951-51-1626-0 (PDF) Copyright © Gao Yuan (高源) https://ethesis.helsinki.fi/en Cover: Wang Rui and Gao Yuan Juvenes Print Oy Helsinki 2015 ABSTRACT This study presents a general overview of Augustine’s insights into passions as well as his approach to the therapy of emotions and their sanctification. Attending to various phases of his writings, this work explores the systematic structure of Augustine’s tenets on passions and on the freedom from passions in the context of his philosophical and theological convictions on the issue of amor sui and amor Dei. The analysis begins by examining Augustine’s language of passions and the doctrinal connections between Augustine and his predecessors. I provide a survey of Augustine’s usage of emotional terms and criticise the position that Augustine suggested a dichotomy between passio and affectus as well as the claim that none of Augustine’s Latin terms can be justifiably translated by the modern term “emotion”. On the basis of terminological and doctrinal observations, I clarify the general features of Augustine’s psychology of passions in Chapter 2. In addressing the issue of how Augustine transformed his predecessors’ therapy of passions and their ideal of freedom from emotion into his theological framework in Chapter 3, I examine a series of related concepts, such as propatheia, metriopatheia, apatheia and eupatheia, to determine how he understood them in various stages of his philosophical and theological thinking.

  • The Matron of Ephesus 1 Petronius, Satyricon, 111-112
    The Matron of Ephesus 1 Petronius, Satyricon, 111-112 Created by E. DeHoratius Below you will find a complete text of Petronius’ Matron of Ephesus story. Following this ‘clean’ text is an annotated text with notes. It is important, however, that you become accustomed to confronting Latin and just Latin, as opposed to the stilted, noted, glossed Latin that you are often presented. Use these ‘clean’ texts for study, review, and most importantly, translation in class. DO NOT WRITE ON THIS TEXT; DO NOT CORRUPT IT. Practicing a passage, after you have pre- pared it, on a blank text such as this is the best way not only to know it but also to become a better reader of Latin. Petronius, Satyricon 111-112, the Matron of Ephesus (1) Matrona quaedam Ephesi tam notae erat pudicitiae, ut vici- narum quoque gentium feminas ad spectaculum sui evocaret.

THE General Editor of The Cambridg-e Bible for Schools thinks it right to say that he does not hold himself responsible either for the interpretation of particular passages which the Editors of the several Books have adopted, or for any opinion on points of doctrine that they may have expressed. In the New Testament more especially questions arise of the deepest theological import, on which the ablest and most conscientious interpreters have differed and always will differ. His aim has been in all such cases to leave each Contributor to the unfettered exercise of his own judgment, only taking care that mere controversy should as far as possible be avoided. He has contented himself chiefly with a careful revision of the notes, with pointing out omissions, with vi PREFACE. suggesting occasionally a reconsideration of some question, or a fuller treatment of difficult passages, and the like.

  • The Singer in the Ecclesiastical Hierarchy
    The Singer in the Ecclesiastical Hierarchy The Early History of the Order Kaija Ravolainen STUDIA MUSICA 59 2014 © Kaija Ravolainen 2014 Doctoral dissertation University of the Arts Helsinki Sibelius Academy DocMus Doctoral School Studia Musica 59 Juvenes Print – Suomen Yliopistopaino Oy Tampere 2014 ISBN 978-952-5959-77-2 ISSN 0788-3757 Abstract The present study examines the origin and the early phases of the ecclesiastical order of the singer, nowadays generally called cantor. The constitutive regulations concerning the order derive from the late fourth century in the canons of the Synod of Laodicea and the Apostolic Constitutions. The order of the singer was established in eastern Christendom, while in the West, it never was added to the ranks of the ecclesiastical hierarchy. There, the members of other ecclesiastical grades answered for the psalmody, although allusions to singers occasionally appear. The study period extends to the seventh century CE. The development of both ecclesiastical singing and the hierarchy is treated from the beginning of the history of the Church. This is necessary for identifying the standing and the role of the singer, whose order emerges rather late in comparison with other ecclesiastical orders. One of the earlier orders belongs to the reader, who is considered to have preceded the singer, but also to have been one, as all reading was performed in recitation. The study also aims to define why a separate order of the singer was needed, if the reader was able to execute these duties as well. The materials include both normative – the canons of ecclesiastical councils and synods, and church orders – and descriptive sources, the latter consisting primarily of the texts of the patristic authors.

It is divided into two interrelated sections which deal with a broad range of textual and archaeological evidence. Its starting point is an examination of Roman views of the inhabitants of the island of Britain and how ethnographic images were created in order to define the population of Britain as 1 barbarians who required the civilising influence of imperial conquest. The discussion here seeks to elucidate, as far as possible, the extent to which the Britons were incorporated into the provincial framework and subsequently ordered and defined themselves as an imperial people. This first section culminates with discussion of Gildas’s De Excidio Britanniae. It seeks to illuminate how Gildas attempted to create a new identity for his contemporaries which, though to a certain extent based on the foundations of Roman-period Britishness, situated his gens uniquely amongst the peoples of late antique Europe as God’s familia. The second section of the thesis examines the creation of regional and dynastic identities and the emergence of kingship amongst the Britons in the late and immediately post-Roman periods. It is largely concerned to show how interaction with the Roman state played a key role in the creation of early kingships in northern and western Britain. The argument stresses that while there were claims of continuity in group identities in the late antique period, the socio-political units which emerged in the fifth and sixth centuries were new entities.
