  • The Palmyrene Prosopography
    THE PALMYRENE PROSOPOGRAPHY by Palmira Piersimoni University College London Thesis submitted for the Higher Degree of Doctor of Philosophy London 1995 C II. TRIBES, CLANS AND FAMILIES (i. t. II. TRIBES, CLANS AND FAMILIES The problem of the social structure at Palmyra has already been met by many authors who have focused their interest mainly to the study of the tribal organisation'. In dealing with this subject, it comes natural to attempt a distinction amongst the so-called tribes or family groups, for they are so well and widely attested. On the other hand, as shall be seen, it is not easy to define exactly what a tribe or a clan meant in terms of structure and size and which are the limits to take into account in trying to distinguish them. At the heart of Palmyrene social organisation we find not only individuals or families but tribes or groups of families, in any case groups linked by a common (true or presumed) ancestry. The Palmyrene language expresses the main gentilic grouping with phd2, for which the Greek corresponding word is ØuAi in the bilingual texts. The most common Palmyrene formula is: dynwpbd biiyx... 'who is from the tribe of', where sometimes the word phd is omitted. Usually, the term bny introduces the name of a tribe that either refers to a common ancestor or represents a guild as the Ben Komarê, lit. 'the Sons of the priest' and the Benê Zimrâ, 'the sons of the cantors' 3 , according to a well-established Semitic tradition of attaching the guilds' names to an ancestor, so that we have the corporations of pastoral nomads, musicians, smiths, etc.

Plutarch, Z)^ E apud Delpbos, 385 D. 827732 PREFACE The popularity of Plutarch as the author of the Parallel Lives has never really waned. It is thus surprising that the other half of his extant work, the essays generally called by the collective title of the Moralia, should for long periods together be almost unread and unremembered. I have found in these essays an interest even greater than I had been led to expect from my love of the " Lives." In the Moralia Plutarch, the philosopher, the priest, the citizen, the father, reveals himself with an intimacy rare among the ancient Greeks.

Although his prominence in the Second Sophistic is undoubted, Herodes is scarcely one of the major figures of antiquity; the Second Sophistic itself, because of its lack of recognized literary masterpieces, engages the interest of few but specialists. No literary works at all are extant from the hand of Herodes Atticus; but he has never suffered the artistic eclipse that time has imposed on men like Cornelius Gallus, for example, since Flavius Philostratus, fascinated by the extraordinary variety in Herodes' life, saw fit to give him the paramount position in his Vitae Sophlstarum. Furthermore, Herodes1 name, i f not h is 1 if e - s to r y , has ever been w ell known to archaeologists and historians of ancient art because of the survival of so many traces of his architectural philan­ thropies. Herodes was the most prominent millionaire of the second century; his lavish gift to Athens of the Odeum at the foot of the Acropolis has been a familiar landmark for c e n tu r ie s .

  • From Naevius to Accius)
    Tyrants and Kings in the Latin Theatre (from Naevius to Accius) Federico Russo DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7358/erga-2017-001-russ ABSTRACT: This paper aims at showing the importance of early Latin theatre with respect to the Roman view of forms of monocratic power such as monarchy and tyranny. While Plautus provides us with fundamentally neutral or positive examples of tyrants and kings, other playwrights of the third and second centuries BC such as Naevius, Terentius, Pacu- vius and Accius propose a multifaceted image of these figures, indicating the ambivalent position of kings and tyrants in the Roman collective imagination of that period. KEYWORDS: Accius, Ennius, Latin theatre, monarchy, Naevius, Plautus, Q. Fabius Maxi- mus, second punic war, Terentius, tyranny – Accio, Ennio, monarchia, Nevio, Plauto, Q. Fabio Massimo, seconda guerra punica, teatro latino, Terenzio. 1. – The concept of regnum was particularly unpopular among the Romans. According to most ancient sources, the kingship of Tarquinius Superbus was so traumatic that from that moment onwards the Romans developed a strong and steadfast hatred for any kind of monocratic power that could remind them of Tarquinius Superbus’ tyranny 1. In reconstructing this particular aspect of Roman imagination, as a rule modern scholars rely upon late republican sources, with only a few references to historiographi- cal traditions datable to the second century BC. Accordingly, the evidence of the theatre – and most of all of early Latin playwrights – has remained unexplored, although it might significantly contribute to a better under- standing of the Romans’ attitude towards the idea of regnum 2.

The selection of documents here published in full or described probably represents less than half the second century material discovered in 1897, t>ut it is our intention in future volumes to deal with successive centuries up to the sixth, and then 10 return to the older papyri temporarily passed over. In the spring of this year excavations at Oxyrhynchus were resumed, and another large find of papyri was made, including a certain number of the late Ptolemaic period.

  • Curculio Di Plauto (Vv.1-370)
    UNIVERSITÀ DEGLI STUDI DI SALERNO DIPARTIMENTO DI STUDI UMANISTICI DOTTORATO DI RICERCA IN FILOLOGIA CLASSICA XII CICLO TESI DI DOTTORATO IN LETTERATURA LATINA Un Commento al Curculio di Plauto (vv.1-370) Tutor: Candidata Ch.mo Prof. Stefano Grazzini Luigia Cappiello Coordinatore: Ch.mo Prof. Paolo Esposito ANNO ACCADEMICO 2014-2015 Il cerchio si chiude ma non quadra. Ai miei genitori, ancora con infinita gratitudine. Al merlo indiano. Alla bambina che desiderava la cartella di cartone NOTA INTRODUTTIVA Il presente lavoro vuole essere un commento, purtroppo solo parziale, al Curculio di Plauto. Sono state prese in esame le prime sei scene del dramma, ciascuna brevemente introdotta. L’edizione di riferimento è quella approntata da S. Lanciotti, per i tipi dell’editore Quattroventi di Urbino, nel 2008. Da questa ci si discosta solo in pochissimi punti discussi nelle note di commento. Versi o brevi sezioni di testo appartenenti a commedie plautine diverse dal Curculio, sono state citate secondo l’edizione curata da Lindsay nel 1905. Da questa sorta di regola generale ci si è distaccati solo nel caso di Cistellaria, citata secondo Stockert (2009) ed Epidicus, citato secondo Duckworth (1940). Il carattere frammentario e l’incertezza di molti passi della Cistellaria ha indotto ad affidarsi alla sua edizione più recente e aggiornata. Nel caso di Epidicus, invece, la scelta è puramente di comodo. Dei diversi commenti consultati infatti, esso è stato il più ricco di materiale, spesso il solo degno di essere citato. Si è pensato quindi, per una scelta di semplice coerenza, che fosse inopportuno citando il commento, far riferimento a un testo diverso (anche solo per le scelte grafiche) da quello a esso sotteso.

OXFORD HORACE HART, PRINTER TO THE UNIVERSITY PREFACE For the rather late appearance of this vokime the nature of its contents will perhaps in some degree be accepted as an excuse. It includes two texts of more than usual importance and interest, the new fragments of Sophocles and the Life of Etiripidcs by Satyrus. In the reconstruction and elucidation of these I have again been most fortunate in obtaining the invaluable aid of Professor U. von Wilamowitz-M Ollendorff. I am also under considerable obligations, more particularly with regard to the Sophoclean fragments, to Professor Gilbert Murray.
