Abstract:

Genre looms large in contemporary Lukan scholarship. While many scholars are content to label Luke as biography and Acts as history, others argue that both volumes must belong to a single genre. This solution preserves the generic unity of Luke-Acts by shoehorning one or both volumes into ill-fitting categories; such a move only makes sense within an understanding of genre-as-classification. By exploring recent scholarship on genre and privileging ancient practice over ancient theory, we propose reading Luke-Acts as a unified narrative influenced by and modelled after a wide range of Greek prose narratives, rather than representing one genre in particular.

Abstract:

A distinctive feature of the biographies of Suetonius is his methodical and detailed description of the physical appearances of the emperors. This feature was adopted by two fourth-century Latin writers, Ammianus Marcellinus and the anonymous author of the Historia Augusta. This study will explore how ancient theories of the relationship between appearance and character intersect with the physical descriptions of emperors the authors provide. These authors reveal themselves to be engaged with contemporary approaches to the question without being bound by any one theory, and thus presuppose a readership for whom physiognomic questions were both interesting and debatable. The approaches of the authors to this minor feature in their work also offer broader insight into their biographical style and purpose.

Abstract:

Roymans' article is an original and valuable contribution to an interpretation of the ‘cultural biography’ of the landscape of a specific area by combining archaeological and folkloric evidence. His study concentrates on the sacred places of this landscape, especially the urnfields and barrows, because ‘these are focal points from which local communities order and interpret the surrounding landscape’. The author rightly stresses that funerary monuments not only had a certain significance in the societies that constructed and used them, but that they also had a prominent place in the landscape of later societies up until pre-modern times. He suggests that, in the Meuse-Demer-Scheldt region, there has been ‘a long-term incorporation of prehistorical burial monuments in the mythical landscape of later inhabitants’. Archaeology itself, for that matter, should be understood in the perspective of the (dis)continuing biography of the landscape because it presupposes the destruction of the ancient mythical geography, including the Christian one. Archaeology is the product of the ‘modernisation’ of space: it is presupposing and reflecting (upon) the coming of the modem world with its rationalisation and Entzauberung (disenchantment) of the landscape. In a similar way the study of folklore (Volkskunde in both Dutch and German) has been made possible and interesting by the waning of rural popular culture as a consequence of both the Enlightenment and the industrial revolution. Thus, it is no accident that modernity produced the conditions of becoming aware of the mythical meaning of the landscape exactly at the time that its traces are disappearing in the physical landscape as well as in the memory of the rural population.

Abstract:

viii, 113 p.
This thesis analyzes various literary, numismatic, and epigraphical narratives of the Roman civil war of 69CE, and the representations of the four emperors who fought in it. In particular the focus is on how the narratives and representations relate to one another. Such an investigation provides us with useful insight into the people and events of 69 and how contemporaries viewed the actors and the events. These various presentations, most notably the works of five ancient historians and biographers, give 69 the distinction of being one of the best documented years in all antiquity. Historical scholarship has typically sought to determine which of these authors was the most accurate on the points which they disagreed. These points of difference, largely subjective opinion and therefore equally valid, illuminate instead the diverse ways in which an event can be interpreted. This thesis will focus on why there is such diversity and its usefulness to the historian.

Resumo: As obras De Vita Caligulae, de Suetônio, e De Vita Iulii Agricolae, de Tácito, são duas obras biográficas de composição e características bastante diferentes, o que se reflete, muitas vezes, nas apreciações modernas quanto à biografia. A primeira obra, de cunho mais histórico, suscita muitas discussões quanto a seu gênero e, por ser de autoria de um historiador canônico, costuma ser considerada muito elaborada para uma biografia. A segunda obra estudada aqui, por sua vez, cujo eixo narrativo é de caráter privado, amiúde é concebida como uma biografia pouco elaborada, sobretudo pela carência de informações históricas. Tendo notado a frequente comparação entre as duas obras (verificando, muitas vezes, o detrimento da biografia de Suetônio como uma obra historiográfica), bem como certa hesitação quanto a definição do gênero a que elas pertencem, buscamos, nesta dissertação, apresentar as possíveis diferenças genéricas entre biografia e história na Antiguidade, uma vez que tais conceitos, e a apreciação de obras e autores, parecem variar na bibliografia moderna. Assim, apresenta-se nesta pesquisa um levantamento das definições do gênero biográfico por autores modernos, as reflexões de autores da Antiguidade - tais como Cícero, Quintiliano, Cornélio Nepos, Plutarco, Políbio e Luciano de Samósata - sobre a escrita biográfica e historiográfica, e uma breve análise do desenvolvimento do gênero biográfico, suas relações com a historiografia e características de composição. Pretendemos, ao analisar tais questões, observar se a biografia pode ser considerada um gênero autônomo - mesmo que suas fronteiras com a historiografia não sejam claramente definidas. Por fim, analisamos as obras de Tácito e Suetônio, a fim de examinar a construção das duas obras e como elas poderiam estar inseridas no gênero biográfico. Ao fim de nosso estudo, apresentamos a tradução comentada, do latim para o português, da De Vita Iulii Agricolae
Abstract: Both Suetonius' De Vita Caligulae and Tacitus' De Vita Iulii Agricolae are biographical works with very distinct composition and features, which may often reflect in modern approaches with respect to biography. The first title, of historical nature, draws much discussion about its genre and, on account of being written by a canonical historian, is commonly considered too much elaborated for a biography. On its turn, the second one, whose narrative axis has a private character, is usually understood as less laborious, especially due to the lack of historical information. Observing the frequent comparison between both titles (the detriment of Suetonius' biography as historiographical work is regularly verified), as well as the hesitation concerning the genre they belong to, this dissertation describes an investigation into possible generic differences between biography and history in ancient times, once such concepts, besides the appraisal of works and authors, seem to fluctuate through modern bibliography. Hence, the present research raised several definitions of biographic genre by contemporary authors, the reflections of ancient writers - like Cicero, Quintilian, Cornelius Nepus, Plutarch, Polybius, and Lucian of Samosata - on biographical and historiographical writing, and a short analysis of biographical genre's development, its relationships towards historiography and composition features. The aim of such questions is to observe whether biography can be taken as an autonomous genre - even though its border with historiography is not clearly defined. At last, the mentioned Tacitus' and Suetonius' titles are analyzed in order to investigate the construction of both works and how they may be enclosed in biography genre. The commented translation of De Vita Iulii Agricolae from Latin into Portuguese is presented after the study

Abstract:

This thesis provides a fresh investigation of a collection of Roman imperial biographies conventionally known as the 'Historia Augusta'. The thesis supports the authenticity of the texts included in this corpus, in particular the claims they make about their dates, authorship, and scope, through philological, literary, prosopographical, and historical arguments. It shows that this corpus of texts, if the main conclusions are accepted, potentially improves our understanding of the tetrarchic-Constantinian era. It also explores the wider implications for the historiography of the fourth century; the transmission and formation of multi-author corpora in antiquity and the middle ages. It also suggests that the canon of Latin imperial biographies be widened. The thesis has two parts. Part I explores the actual state of the corpus, its textual transmission, and relation to other texts. It shows that the ancient and medieval paratexts presented the corpus as a collection of imperial biographies. The paratexts are compatible with the authorial statements in the main text. It then explores the corpus' medieval transmission, and the interest medieval scholars had in such texts. This part suggests that the corpus’s current state explains well the inconsistencies found in it. Finally, it shows that words and phrases, once thought peculiar to the corpus and the holy grail of the forgery argument, are intertextual links to earlier texts. Part II explores chronological statements and historical episodes relevant to the Diocletianic-Constantinan period. It establishes the actual dates of each author, and suggests that the confusion found in these biographies is similar to that of other contemporaries. The few apostrophes are shown to be authentic, and the historical and prosopographical passages are shown to represent, and improve our understanding of, the zeitgeist and history of the period. The final conclusion weaves the various arguments together, and emphasises the authenticity and significance of the corpus' texts. It suggests separating the composition of the texts from the disinterested formation of the corpus as a whole, as part of a new hypothesis and further lines of enquiry.

Abstract:

Juriste de formation, Claude-Guillaume II Lambert (1726-1794) entre au parlement de Paris en 1748. De culture parlementaire et « jansénisante », il prend vite la tête d’un groupe d’opposition à l’absolutisme. Partisan d’un pouvoir royal tempéré par les Parlements, il tend vers le constitutionnalisme, sans toutefois le formuler directement. Principal rédacteur des Grandes remontrances de 1753 et d’un arrêt du Parlement en 1756, deux textes très critiques aux conséquences politiques importantes, il est exilé à deux reprises. Chef de file des « patriotes », il est alors un magistrat engagé. Collaborateur de Bertin, assez proche de Choiseul puis de L’Averdy, le parlementaire est animé par le modèle du « magistrat idéal » prôné par d’Aguesseau. Il parvient à maintenir l’équilibre entre le service de l’État et celui du Parlement. Double adhésion qui peut sembler paradoxale mais qui correspond en définitive à son attachement viscéral au droit plutôt qu’au système politique en lui-même. Nommé maître des requêtes puis conseiller d’État, Lambert sert la monarchie et s’introduit, sous Louis XVI, dans de nombreuses commissions administratives. Ses activités sont riches d’apprentissages sur ce que nous appelons de nos jours les « finances publiques ». Après sa participation à l’Assemblée des notables de 1787, il est nommé contrôleur général des finances une première fois en août 1787. Il travaille alors sous l’administration directe de Loménie de Brienne dont il suit la chute en août 1788. Après la prise de la Bastille et le départ précipité de tous les ministres, il accepte de revenir à ce même poste une seconde fois, en juillet 1789, sous la houlette de Necker. Las et impuissant face à la crise fiscale, il démissionne en novembre 1790.Parlementaire puis spécialiste des « finances publiques », le parcours de Lambert vient interroger le lien entre politique et finances. Il permet de comprendre comment fonctionne l’architecture administrative à la fin de l’Ancien Régime ainsi que les tentatives de réformes souhaitées par le pouvoir. L’approche diachronique des sources nous présente Lambert comme l’archétype du gestionnaire de biens, publics comme privés. Personnage aux ambiguïtés certaines, il appartient à une élite ordinaire, soucieuse du bien commun et de l’intérêt général, dont le moteur est la vertu politique. Très présente dans la pensée du XVIIIème siècle, la notion trouve son accomplissement dans le service désintéressé du peuple. Lambert rêve à ce passé évanoui et chimérique du monarque régnant avec l’appui de la curia regis dont son groupe social estime faire partie. Il est alors prêt à en être le héraut et faire preuve d’un profond dévouement à la cause publique qu’il défend. Mais la vertu telle que la conçoit Lambert mêle intimement religieux et politique, morale janséniste et ordre social. L’attachement à un idéal de vertu – vertu domestique, vertu civique et vertu politique – définit l’existence de ce serviteur ordinaire de l’État. C’est cette conception qui entre en concurrence avec la Révolution. Parvenu à Lyon en 1793, il est dénoncé au tribunal révolutionnaire. Emprisonné puis jugé, il est acquitté. Il se retire à Cahors mais il est de nouveau dénoncé. Ramené à Paris, il est jugé sommairement puis guillotiné le 27 juin 1794
Lawyer by training, Claude-Guillaume II Lambert (1726-1794) got into Parlement of Paris in 1748. Having a parliamentary and “jansenistic” background, he quickly took the lead of an opposition group against absolutism. In favour of a royal power tempered by parliaments, he leant towards constitutionalism, although he never directly phrased it. As he was the main author of the great remonstrances in 1753 and of a parliament decision in 1756 - two highly critical texts which had important political consequences - he was exiled twice. He was at the time the leader of the “Patriotes” and a committed magistrate. He worked together with Bertin, was rather close to Choiseul then to L’Averdy and, as a parliamentarian, was striving to become the “ideal magistrate” as advocated by d’Aguesseau. He managed to maintain a good balance between serving the State and serving the Parlement. This double allegiance might sound paradoxical but really illustrates his visceral attachment to Law rather than to the political system itself. Later appointed Master of Requests and then State Councillor, Lambert served the monarchy and entered many administrative commissions under Louis XVI. His activities teach us a lot about what is called today “public finances”. After he took part in the Assembly of the dignitaries in 1787, he was appointed Controller-General of finances for the first time in August 1788. That was when he worked under Loménie de Brienne’s direct administration, before witnessing the latter’s downfall in August 1788. After the storming of the Bastille and the hasty leave of every minister, he accepted to take this position a second time in July 1789, under Necker’s stewardship. Weary and powerless in addressing the fiscal crisis, he resigned in 1790.Lambert was a parliamentarian and a specialist of “public finances”, that’s why his career questions the connection between politics and finance. It thus gives a better understanding of the architecture of administrative operations, as well as of the attempts at reform wished by the government by the end of the Ancien Régime. A diachronic approach of the sources reveals Lambert as the archetypal administrator of public and private assets. He was a truly ambiguous character and belonged to this ordinary elite who cared for the common and greater good and was driven by political righteousness. This concept was very much part of 18th century people’s minds and it found its achievement in altruistic service to the people. Lambert dreamt of a vanished and chimeric past when a monarch reigned with the support of the curia regis, of which his social class considered they were part. He was then ready to be their herald and to deeply commit himself to the public cause he defended. However, virtue as perceived by Lambert commingled religion and politics, Jansenism morals and social order. His commitment to an ideal of righteousness – domestic, civil and political righteousness – was central to the life and career of this ordinary servant of the state. This perception conflicted with the Revolution. Once he arrived in Lyon in 1793, he was denounced to the revolutionary court. He was imprisoned, tried and eventually cleared. He then withdrew to Cahors but was denounced again. He was therefore taken back to Paris where he went through a summary trial and was guillotined on June 27th, 1794
