Extractions: Go to intro summary , or documents In my first major research project I studied Lucan's fascinating epic (or anti-epic) on the civil war between Caesar and Pompeius. The poem was written during the reign of Nero (about 60 to 65 A.D.) This was my main research project in the period 1988-1991. It resulted in a PhD dissertation (1992). Summary The epic Bellum Civile of the Roman poet Marcus Annaeus Lucanus (39-65) deals with the civil war between Julius Caesar and Pompeius in 49-47 B.C. Their conflict is elaborately described in powerful verses full of paradox, witty maxims, and strong pathos. This study is a commentary on the third book of Lucan's epic, on which no separate, modern commentary was available as yet. The most important parts of Lucan's book are a long catalogue of Pompey's troops, and a highly original account of a naval battle near Marseille. Bellum civile is a complex text, which confronts its reader with countless problems, both textual, and linguistical and thematic. The commentary attempts to identify the most important of these problems and, wherever possible, formulate solutions to them. At many points the Latin text is explained and interpreted first. This interpretation is made on the basis of a general concept of the poem as, above all, a
Halloween Aka Samhain ~ Pagan Essence Death, if your lore be true, is but the center of a long life. On the teachingsof the Druids, from the Pharsalia by Marcus Annaeus Lucanus, AD 3965. http://www.geocities.com/duupaas/samhain.html
Extractions: Samhain. pronounced Sow-ain An ancient Celtic festival that celebrates the beginning of winter, Marked by death, and the beginning of the Celtic New Year. Samhain is an Irish term for "end of summer" According to tradition, home fires were extinguished and relit from the festival bonfire. Samhain marked the third and final harvest, and the storage of food for the winter. The veil between the worlds of the living and the dead is at its thinnest point in the year, making communication easier. The souls of the dead come into the land of the living. Cakes are baked as offerings for the souls of the dead. Samhain is also a time for taking inventory of life, and getting rid of weaknesses and what is no longer desired... This special festival is one of remembrance, as the dead make their way back from the grave to revisit their old homes. It is a long journey and the travelers may need help along the way. In Ireland, the custom was to leave the entrances to the burial mounds open, and light the interiors until cockcrow the following morning so the dead could more easily find their way home along the dark path from the tomb. Once the travelers arrive at their destination, it is only common courtesy to welcome and refresh them with food and drink, as one would do with any visitor.

Extractions: PHILOSOPHY OF THE ROMANS The Pythagoreans of Magna Graecia were the first to introduce greek philosophy into Italy. Pythagorean philosophy, however, never took deep root in Roman soil. Indeed, although Pythagorean speculation flourished in Italy as early as the sixth century, it was not until the beginning of the second century before Christ that Rome began to feel the power of Greek literature and Greek art, and it was about the same time that the influence of Greek philosophy was first felt. That the Romans did not accept without a struggle this imposition of a foreign culture is evident from the fact that in 161 B.C. residence in Rome was, by a decree of the Senate, forbidden to philosophers and rhetoricians. Later, however, the conquest of Greece and the military expeditions of Pompey, Caesar, Antony, and Augustus broadened the minds of the Romans, rendered them susceptible to the beauty of Greek literature, and led to the inflow of Greek learning and to the establishment in Rome of the representative teachers of Greek philosophy. Cicero was, therefore, contrasting his own age with the more conservative past when he said: "Philosophia jacuit usque ad hanc aetatem." In accepting the philosophy of Greece, the Roman spirit asserted its practical tendency, selecting what was more easily assimilated, and modifying what it accepted, by imparting to it a more practical character. Thus it was the ethical philosophy of the Epicureans and Stoics and the Eclectic systems of later times, rather than the philosophy of Plato and Aristotle, that throve when transplanted to Roman soil.

Extractions: Jacques Maritain Center History of Philosophy / by William Turner THIRD PERIOD. POST-ARISTOTELIAN PHILOSOPHY The death of Aristotle marks the end of the Golden Age of Greek philosophy. From Thales to Socrates was the period of beginnings; from Socrates to Aristotle, the period of highest perfection; with the opening of the post-Aristotelian period begins the age of decay and dissolution. To this third period belong the pantheism of the Stoics , the materialism of the Epicureans , and the final relaxation of all earnest philosophical thought, culminating in the absolute scepticism of the Pyrrhonists . The period of highest perfection in philosophy was also the period of the political greatness of Greece, and the causes which brought about the political downfall of Greece are in part accountable for the decay of Greek philosophy. Sixteen years before the death of Aristotle, the battle of Chaeronea (338 B.C.) was fought, the battle in which the doom of Greece was sealed. There followed a series of unsuccessful attempts to shake off the Macedonian yoke. In vain did Demosthenes strive to arouse in the breasts of the Athenians the spirit of the days of Marathon and Thermopylae; the iron hand of military despotism crushed the last manifestations of patriotism. Then the Roman came, to succeed the Macedonian, and Greece, the fair home of philosophy in the West, was made a province of a vast military and commercial empire. The loss of political freedom was followed by a period of torpor of the creative energies of the Greek mind.

Extractions: Classical Philology Seminar, University of Turku, Finland Here we have a new version of a book which has been considered to be the leading introduction into what is generally called Classical Philology in the most comprehensive sense, and which was published almost 90 years ago in 1910 by Alfred Gercke and Eduard Norden.[[1]] That this new version is concerned only with Latin Philology has to do with the fact that in the last decades of this century Latin has improved more and more as a scientific discipline and is no longer considered to be a kind of appendix to ancient Greek philology. So it is quite justified that the publisher has announced a separate volume which will be dedicated to ancient Greek philology.[[2]] The present introduction to Latin philology presents nine sections, each containing several articles by different authors. The first section, 'Geschichte der lateinischen Philologie und Bildung' ('The History of Latin Philology and Education', pp. 1-50) contains three articles: Robert A. Kasten, 'Die Geschichte der Philologie in Rom' ('The History of Philology in Rome', pp. 1-16), examines the political, religious and social traditions reflected in the Latin Language, Ilsetraut Hadot gives an outline of the history of education in antiquity and a survey of the so-called artes liberales

Extractions: Catalog of an Exhibition The Book Arts 112. JAMBLICHUS. De mysteriis Aegyptiorum, Chaldaeorurn, Assyriorum. Venice: Aldus, 1497. De mysteriis Aegyptiorum , by the Syrian philosopher Jamblichus, in an Italian translation by Marsilio Ficino. Jamblichus (ca. 250-ca. 330), a student of Porphyry and the founder of a Syrian school of Neoplatonism, is credited with doing more than any other philosopher to transfer the Neoplatonism of Plotinus into the rigid, complex scholarship known best from the works of Proclus. On Neoplatonic foundations he attempted to erect a coherent theology encompassing all rites, myths, and divinities of later syncretistic paganism. In ethics he advocated Porphyry's classification of virtues (derived from Plotinus) into "political," "purifying," and 11 exemplary," inserting "contemplative" between the second and third divisions. Over these four areas he placed "priestly" and 11 unifying" virtues that would join all people to "the one." Only five genuine works by Jamblichus survive, although De mysteriis Aegyptiorum is also probably his. According to Charles Lamb, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, while a student at Christ's Hospital, unfolded in "deep and sweet intonations, the mysteries of Jamblichus, or Plotinus."This volume also contains tracts by Proclus, Porphyry, Priscianus, and Pythagoras, among others, translated by Ficino. They are bound with editions of In somnium Scipionis and Saturnalia by Macrobius. The texts are set in roman type; the Macrobius is partly printed in Greek. The book is bound in contemporary wooden boards retaining their original clasps, with a richly blind-stamped pigskin back extending over more than half of the covers.Peal 7,163a.
