Full textIn this dissertation, divided in two distinct parts, I examine firstly the ambiguousdefinition/interpretation of the term φωνασκός (lat. phonascus) which we commonly understand tomean a teacher of singing or recitation or declamation, or simply, a voice coach. This term first appearsin Latin texts that date from the second half of the 1st century A.D. In Greek, it emerges some yearslater, at the very beginning of the 2nd century. Unfortunately, we do not possess an ancient definition ofthis term. All the relevant sources, literary, medical and inscriptional are studied closely in order toundertake a presentation of the historical evolution of this term/profession. A prosopographiaphonascorum is also provided. The second part of this dissertation concerns generally the vocal art andmore precisely the profession of the singer. In addition, I propose an interpretation of some terms relatedto the human voice, which probably constituted a special vocabulary (slang) of the professionalmusicians, as well as the most important attested vocal exercises of the Greco-Roman antiquity. Thecases of eunuch-musician, of the stage fright as well as of the profession of the professionalmourner (θρηνῳδός) are also discussed

Full textThis thesis aims to define different relations and different musical links, and some evolutions as well, in the framework of the ancient war, in other words, it means to establish parallels between military music and other warlike musics. For that, this thesis focuses principally to military music which forms the principal line of the work. We particularly study a lot of trumpet's music, and we answer or define the following questions : had military music been for occasions artistic music? Or music for relaxation? What are the common points and evolutions of military music and military music instruments along greek and roman antiquity?To treat these subjects, all the ancient sources which are concerned by antic music generally and military music particularly are mentioned. Historic and philosophic sources are taken in consideration too, and musicologic books as well (Aristide Quintilien, Philodème of Gadara). Music instruments are studied : trumpet, aulos and tibia, lyre and hydraulic organ. A chapter is dedicated to the warfare musicians. The delphic hymns of Athenaios and Limenios are studied, and the epic fragment of Oslo as well
Marlier, Thomas. "Tradition grecque et innovation romaine dans l'architecture en Cyrénai͏̈que à l'époque impériale: les monuments publics." Paris 4, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004PA040096.
Full textWhat is the part of Greek tradition and roman innovation in the architecture of an ancient Greek city during the High Empire ? The case of Cyrene and others cities of the region - Apollonia, Ptolemai͏̈s, Taucheira and Berenike - shows that hellenism and romanity are often joint: the great majority of the buildings preserves Greek techniques of construction, but a great part of news or restored edifices on this period recovers roman types, like the theatres, the temples and the monumental arches. The type of roman theater takes the place of the Greek type, the cyrenaean temples imitate the forms of the roman temple with podium and frontal staircase, the Propylaea evolves to the monumental arch, types completely news as the amphitheatre or the basilica appear, and several monumental complexes adopt a roman configuration: the forum of Cyrene, for example, associates a quadriportico with a temple and a basilica. It is not in the political, demographic or social situation that the explications of the roman innovations will be found. It appears that the conservatism of the manners of construct doesn't explain itself by an inertia of know-how : the craftsmen and the architects reproduce simply their customs by using the technical system which they already know. The roman innovation seems to fall within the scope of a simple fashion where the news architectural types are imitated " to seems roman " without new roman customs corresponding to them ; or, more rarely, by diffusion of roman customs : in this case, new types of buildings are necessary: the apparition of the amphitheatre, for example, explains itself by the diffusion of hunts and gladiators spectacles on this area

Full textAccording to the texts and the inscriptions engraved on funerary monuments and on collyrium stamps, the world of Imperial Rome witnessed the rise of a new profession, namely that of the oculist. At the time, unattractiveness was perceived as a sign of depravity and consequently, ocular infections were usually assessed and treated solely in terms of their outward symptoms. In fact, symptoms that caused disfigurement could also make someone an outcast in society. The level of competence being different from one oculist to the next, their professional status and working conditions would vary. Proof of this lies in the terminology recorded in archives. Although the latter documents sometimes speak of an interest in nosography that is attuned to scholarly pursuits, references to a more rudimentary kind of ambition are more frequent. Similarly, despite Hellenistic discoveries, knowledge of ocular anatomy and physiology was generally incomplete. It follows that the medical reasoning upheld by practitioners, based on explanatory analogy, favoured rituals using magic that were experimented in the provinces of the Roman Empire

Full textIn the cemeteries of Graeco-Roman Alexandria, archaeological investigations initiated more than a century ago attest to a usage of water for specifically funerary purposes : this is well documented by the frequent discovery of wells, cisterns, basins and drain pipes, whose most reliable remains can be found inside the antic hypogea themselves, or in direct connection with them. From a separately volume which inventory the hydraulic installations that were carried out, the different modalities of water management are first described in their diversity. The reasons that explain their presence are next analysed : water needs concerned the maintenance of locations, the irrigation of gardens, the care of corpses or the commemoration of the deceased, above ground and in the underground graves designed to accommodate the regular visits that the families paid to their dead. The imported and flourishing Greek culture often explain theses practices, but the special case of funerary libations, related to the belief of the thirst in the hereafter, allows one to emphasize the question of the specific influence of Egypt and its religious customs

Full textAt the end of the Iron Age, the changes affecting the material culture of pre-Roman Gaul attest the importance of influences and exchanges with the Hellenistic and Roman cultures. After a few imports at the end of the 2nd century BC, the arrival of objects and products related to body care intensified, especially from the Augustan period onwards. By their quantity and variety, they stand out from the razors, nail clippers, pliers and toiletries known until then and hints at the significant transformations in the way people look, maintain and care for their bodies, which go hand in hand with the development of thermal practice in particular. From the 1st century AD onwards, the use of strigils, perfume spoons or pyxides spread widely within society: their generalized use shows that they were no longer reserved for the elites.Most of Roman sites provide body care implement. These tangible remains complement the historical sources on these aspects of daily life. Thanks to a new examination of this archeological documentation, this work aims to obtain an overview of a situation that has been so far addressed by thematic, site-specific or regional studies. This research thus intends to revise and enhance the typological and chronological framework of these categories of artefacts.The examination of the "Cartes archéologiques de la Gaule", of a large bibliography and the direct examination of part of the small finds have allowed to create a corpus of nearly 8000 objects dated between the 1st century BC and the 5th century AD, covering 2850 sites in the investigated area. Although our work does not intend to be exhaustive, the large series of data uncovered during recent excavations provide a more solid basis for typological and chronological analysis. The survey is not restricted to Roman Gaul but is extended to the whole Roman world for comparative purposes. The finding contexts have been reviewed and the data compiled to propose time ranges for the production, circulation and discarding of the different object types.This re-examination is all the more necessary since there is a persistent historiographical bias: in the past some objects have been considered to be surgical instruments, whereas most of them in fact are accessories related to cosmetics. Texts, instruments and substances show that hygiene and medical practices were not always clearly dissociated in Roman times: the boundary between embellishment and body care can be faint. While the hygienic or medical function of some objects such as mirrors or scalpels is easily identifiable, others are versatile and can theoretically be used in both areas of activity. At the outcome of this study, it has been possible to propose a type-by-type classification – either cosmetic or medico-surgical – for the identified types of spoon-probes and spatula-probes.Due to their abundance and internal morphological variety, some functional categories (mirrors, strigils, spoon-probes, spatula-probes, grinding tablets, scalpels) have led to a more detailed typo-chronological analysis. The succession and contemporaneity of different models have been therefore highlighted. The analysis of the spatial distribution of the most frequent types allows us to understand the conditions of their distribution, but also, sometimes, to sort out imports from Greece or Italy from probable provincial productions. By responding to demand, these objects bear witness to the medical and hygienic practices within the Gallo-Roman society

Full text" To embellish the city " through public buildings does not only designate a simple search for beauty. For inhabitants of ancient Greek cities living in the Roman provinces of Asia and Pontus-Bithynia in Western Asia Minor, making the city as beautiful as possible also means sharing cultural, social and political values. It mainly aims at showing, especially from the end of the Ist century until the end of the IVth century, that the City Council and its Assembly, as well as benefactors, keep to a still living ideal of civic life. This phenomenon which is irreducible to the Roman ideology is best approached through epigraphic and second sophistic discourses. It is one of the best ways to claim a Greek identity and a civic autonomy against always threatening governors. Until the end of the IVth century, the Greeks' ‘kosmos' reveals that Hellenism is still alive and capable of setting itself its own cultural and political goals in spite of a changing world

Moreover the coins which belonged to foreign cities and kingdoms and also were acquired during the excavation take part in the thesis.The research on the coins gives us considerable information about the history of the cities in the region as well as the circulation of the coins within the city

Full textThe fragments of Greek architecture, which are conserved in the Louvre Museum are very various. They come from different sites and monuments, represent different architectural types of elements and date between the archaic and the late Hellenistic period. Discovered during the surveys and excavations of numerous French missions, organized during the 19th century, in Greece and Asia minor, they come from different types of monuments : temples (like Assos, Artemis leucophryene at Magnesia on Maeander, Apollon of Didyma, Athena of Priene, Apollon of Delos and Bassai, Zeus of Olympia), public buildings (Miletus, Phocaea, Pella, Eleusis), or palaces, like vergina. Several fragments come from unknown buildings. They are partly published but these publications are ancient and non complete and have not been revised recently. The interest of these fragments must be proved because they have to be better known and valorised

Full textInterpersonal violence in Ancient Egypt has never been subjected to a comprehensive study. Papyrologists examined it for the Hellenistic and Roman periods, though based on the sole Greek documentation. The objective of this dissertation is to study this social phenomenon for the New Kingdom, and the Greek and Roman periods. This comparative approach endeavours to highlight the characteristics and similarities of each epoch in the mechanisms of expression and treatment of interpersonal violence. For this purpose, every Egyptian text from the New Kingdom, and Greek and Roman periods that reports a physical assault has been translated and analysed. Therefore, this research includes documentary, literary, royal and funerary texts. A thorough analysis of the terminology of violence was carried out, as well as a study of the mechanisms of conflicts regulation. Finally, the issue of specificities according to the gender, the social status and the age of both victim and assailant was raised

Full textIn Late Antiquity, when ancient polytheism was being shaped into new forms and when multicultural interactions were a main feature of Mediterranean societies, astrology, magic, and philosophy were brought into close, and sometimes blurry, contacts. In this respect, the Papyri Graecae Magicae (PGM) allow to study how the heavenly realm is incorporated into ritual recipes. This topic is particularly relevant for the history of religions, the history of science and ritual anthropology. A thorough investigation actually demonstrates that “magic” was not much concerned with Hellenistic astrology as a cosmological or technological paradigm even if it could occasionally rely on astrological notions, which were then reshaped to correspond to “magical” lore. However, the way rituals were written down denotes a major trend in religious and philosophical history: divinatory procedures are given new features which, along with Neoplatonic theurgy, provide evidence for the appearance of mysticism as a new religious imaginary. The “magician”’s universe is therefore a world by itself and is connected to ancient cosmology as well as to contemporary intellectual history

Full textFirst, the study deals with main writings on the philosophy of Nature in Galen's ones and with these most using the word physis. In first part, the fundamental constituents of physic nature are studied from the element (the most small) to different "homeomeries" (similar parts), then in second part, the animal nature and the complete organism created from these functions. The difficult question of relations between soul and body is treated through the archaic notion of physiognomy. In last part, we conclude that it is not possible to confuse Galen's physiologia with modern physiology, a central question for the epistemology. Through the study of his experimentations, we see distance between Galen and modernity. In conclusion, the strength of Stoi͏̈c philosophy seems to be preponderant, for instance in the notion of artistic Nature. The possibility to reduce physiology to Physics is asked

Full textThis work is based on the first book of Galen's commentary on Regimen in acute diseases by Hippocrates, exegetical treatise written between 179 and 182. It consists in the first critical edition with a positive apparatus criticus, which takes the whole datas of the greek, latin and arabic traditions in account. The edited text is different from the Helmreich's reference edition published in 1914 for the CMG. It provides a new text of the hippocratic lemmas and of the exegetical part itself. Moreover, in this thesis the first translation in a modern language of Galen's commentary on Regimen in acute diseases (book I) is given. Well annotated, this translation makes available to the public an important text for the history of medicine. Commentary of Galen upon a hippocratic treatise, this text is first of all a testimony on medical teaching during the imperial period. Its topic is mainly medical, because it describes the suitable regimen for patients suffering from acute diseases, but this book has also epistemological and philosophical issues. The fortune of this text in Byzantine, Arabic and Latin world shows a great interest for it. From its elaboration till the modern period, this text was used for medical teaching. The study of the text's history is a way to establish the best possible text, but also to describe its reception over the centuries

Full textThe present work takes a closer look at the tradition of Dioscorides' botanical and pharmacological works during the first six centuries of our era. After some general remarks about the special problems that await the student of ancient texts dealing with pharmacology or botany, mainly that of identifying plant species mentioned by ancient writers (chap. 1), we study the context of Dioscorides' writing: who was Dioscorides? What works did he write? Among other questions, we give arguments for supporting the opinion that he is the author of the treatise about simple medicines, that goes under his name (chap. 2). We also take a look at the internal structure of de materia medica (chap. 3). Furthermore, we study the problem of adulterations and substitute medicines in Dioscorides' time and in his work (chap. 4). All these preparatory discussions enable us to understand the way Dioscorides was read by later writers, first those of his own century (chap. 5), then by Galen, whose huge and complex work in the realm of pharmacology, needed closer scrutiny: we consider that galen's pharmacology is built with the help of Dioscorides' legacy, but also as a reaction against it (chap. 6 and 7). The main witness of Dioscorides'transmission, after Galen, is the herbarius dioscorideus, in other terms the lost archetype of two well-known illustrated manuscripts (chap. 8). The way it carefully chooses to reproduce only some of Dioscorides chapters shows that its "author" had an eye for what we may call the accessibility of remedies, the euporia (chap. 9). This tendency is also exemplified by a group of later texts dealing with euporista and substitute medicines (chap. 10). Dioscorides, by then a classic of materia medica, is also at the root of that whole growth in pseudepigraphic literature. Through the transmission of his work, we can follow the history of a science; a pre-science or a pseudo-science maybe, but a scientific literature in its own right

Full textThe aim of the thesis is to provide a French translation of Galen’s treatise On Simple Drugs, books VI to VIII, which focuses on plants of pharmacological interest. To understand the nature and the aim of the work, I related the physician to his historical and cultural contexts, the 2nd century AD, and I also provided some essential information about his biography and his literary production and, especially, about his pharmacological texts. I also studied the role of plants in medicine in the era of Roman empire and the sources of the work, especially Dioscorides. Despite the importance of the treatise over the subsequent centuries, it has not been studied in depth and the most recent edition is still K. G. Kühn’s one, dating back to the 19th century. Therefore, a critical edition is necessary. That is why I tried to establish a list of the manuscripts which transmit the Galenic text. Hopefully, this research will help better understand the importance of simple drugs in Galen’s pharmacology and it will represent a starting point for new researches on Galen’s treatise On Simples Drugs

Full textThe Coan Prognoses are one of the treatises of the Hippocratic Corpus. The work is anonymous and can be dated from about the last third of the IVth century b.C. It is presented in the form of a collection of 640 propositions, most often written in a aphoristic style, that are for more than half of them taken from Hippocratic treatises like Aphorisms, Pronostic, Prorrhetic I, Epidemics, Diseases I-II-III, or On head wounds. The content of the compilation is exclusively devoted to the medical prognosis. The treatise had only a very limited tradition in the Antiquity, and was translated neither in Syriac nor in Arabic. Any latin translation is known before the Calvus translation (1525), which represents the starting point of the scholars return to the manuscripts which pass down the text. The introduction presents the work (title, datation, readership, relationships with the others Hippocratic treatises, structure and devices of composition, medical theories, style, history of the treatise, direct and indirect traditions, editions, dialect). The edition itself is mainly based on the more ancient and conservative manuscript, the Parisinus graecus 2253 (A), and also on the indirect tradition (Hippocratic treatises which represent the sources of the work, and Galenic commentaries). The Greek text, presented with the Testimonia, is accompanied by a French translation, by a philological, historical and medical commentary, and by appendix

Full textDuring antiquity, sea power was military, took the form of patronage upon navigation, or was a part of cosmic kingship. In all its forms, it has been one of the sources of the rules' deification. Throughout antiquity, from hellenistic times to the later roman empire, its deifying power has varied, but never ceased producting images, creeds, and sometimes cults. The hellenistic king try to link his marine divinity to that of the marine gods, on the other hand, the roman emperor's marine divinity seems to take these gods for attendants
Romaggi-Trautmann, Magali. "La figure de Narcisse dans la littérature et la pensée médiévales." Thesis, Lyon, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018LYSE2143/document.
Full textGreek myths « font signe sans signifier, montrant, dérobant, toujours limpides disant le mystère transparent, le mystère de la transparence2 ». With these words, Maurice Blanchot insists on the very mystery of all myth. It is also the case for the myth of the Narcissus that has known a considerable success in the medieval time but for which it is difficult to … a stable meaning. It is the famous Augustinian poet Ovidius myth that the medieval authors inherited. They added new meanings to the already rich legend, following the footsteps of Ovidius.Narcissus is foremost a figure in love. Narcissus is the unfortunate lover who suffers such a strong passion he dies from it. What he is in love with can be ignored in the medieval versions. Even if he loved a shadow, it is the intensity of his love and the funest consequences the texts insist on. Passion drives Narcissus on the road to death : spiritual death because of Madness et physical death. Narcissus was a prime subject for fin’amor poetry. Troubadours and trouveres made of Narcissus the perfect example of the fin amant between the XIIth and XIIIth centuries. Moreover Narcissus is the deeply linked to the representation of the melancholic that came from the psycho-physiological philosophical and medical theories of love.Moral Reading were also inspired by the myth. Indeed, Narcissus becomes a sinner full of flaws Under the Christian vision of the myth. Pride is the origin of all the flaws: vanity and arrogance are direct consequences. Narcissus becomes the perfect incarnation of these sins. Depending of the point of view the condemnation may vary but the idea is still the same: Narcissus is self-important and is too pleased with himself. Finally the water from the source, one of the most important aspect of the Narcissus mythology, became the meeting point of several traditions which interlaced in the medieval work: biblical water on one side and neoplatonician conceptions of reflection and ancient myth of Narcissus. The ancient fons transforms itself into a medieval fountain and a true mirror. The mirror becomes more and more independent from the surface of water. The phantasmatical dimension of the Narcissus love for his reflection is developed

Full textThe following thesis collects, analyzes and comments the steles dedicated to club-bearing rider-gods inscribed in ancient Greek. Herakles and Kakasbos, gods of diverging origins, received cults which produced equivalent traces in Lycia and Pisidia between the 1st and the 5th century CE. Thematically articulated, this study is about different aspects related to Herakles’ and Kakasbos’ cults – dedicators, gods honoured, provenance, dating and production of the steles, methodology, cult’s diffusion history. The autor also examines several hypothesis formulated by former studies on the subject. Annexes give a complete inventory of the steles and different tools for paleographic, prosopographic and geographic analysis.

Full textThe present study intends to collect and examine the representations of everyday life on the Greek mosaics of the imperial period. Thus, it focuses on scenes of human activities, rural labors, hunting, fishing, spectacles, religious rites, the portraits of historical personalities, objects of the everyday life of Pygmies and landscapes of the Nile. The scenes originate from modern Greece which during the imperial times was divided in six provinces. The chronological limits are set from the 1st c. A.D. and the end of the 3rd – beginnings of the 4th c. A.D. The study is comprised of tree parts. The first part is dedicated to the iconography. The 130 scenes are classified according to their subject and are interpreted and analyzed in accordance with their relation to reality, their position on the pavement and in the building, their function and the reasons for being chosen. Additionally, their Greek and Roman iconographical models as well as the regional influences are identified. The second part examines the architectural context of the scenes, the relation between the scenes and the buildings and the association of different subjects on the same pavement. The third part focuses on how the society’s image is represented in everyday life scenes. So we examine the chronological and geographical distribution of the scenes and what the regional preferences reveal for the society and the economy of every town. Finally, we study the social status of the patrons, their role in choosing the subjects and the messages implied by these images and their accompanying inscriptions

Full textThis thesis is a survey of the ancient mosaics of the western Mediterranean representing the Hercules Labours between the 2nd and 4th century AD. It proposes an archeological and historiographical development and a panorama of the iconography of this myth in the West, which without a doubt, can not be separated from the East. Six mosaics are studied from different sites around the Mediterranean. It is a question of describing then analyzing each mosaic, to highlight the analogies, the differences and the relations between them. The study also consists in comparing the different representations of Hercules on the mosaic with other artistic genres such as sculptures, numismatics and ceramics of the same period. These comparisons allow us to have a more global vision on the representation of this character by disregarding the support and drawing conclusions.Through this analysis, we find that Heracles does not belong to an ethnic group or a people. But it has an international vocation, which explains in particular the place it occupies in the western Mediterranean. Between Spain, Morocco, Italy, France and Tunisia, a unity in the representations of the hero is clearly visible. At the same time, there are important differences related to the nature of the hero but also to the context and the time. Beyond geographical and temporal limits, Heracles seems to symbolize the foundation ; he represents the archetian hero and embodies political, military and religious power

Full textThis work finds its origin in the study of a funerary relief exposed today at the Archaeological Museum of Apollonia in Illyria, under the inventory number 5030. The relief, exceptional in more than one way, shows a descent into the Underworld through an accessory that is both a ladder and a staircase as a gangway, as it ends up in Charon’s boat. How to call it ? This is the greek word klimax who’s imposed. Not only because it refers indistinctly to the three items mentioned above, preserving their polyvalence, but it is also the most widely and longest used in the literature and epigraphy to designate them. In our survey, it soon emerged that the klimax had not been studied for itself by archaeologists who confronted themselves there. To fill this gap, our work focuses first on the klimax in the ancient art, mainly through mythological context. Klimakes of assault, klimakes of boarding and landing, klimakes in relation with the ancient theater, form as many examined topics where the klimax plays a key role. A detailed study of the relief of Apollonia, which focuses on his iconography’s problems, completes the survey. That was justified not only by the particular place which occupies, in the ancient imagery, the sculpted scene, but also, and especially, because the klimax find here an exemplary use

Full textOne of the primordial questions in the study of Late Antiquity concerns the transition from the ancient polytheistic religion to Christianity. The archaeological discoveries that have been made in the Eastern part of the Mediterranean Basin have revealed a number of late Christian (or Jewish) pavements decorated with rich polychrome mosaics that reuse figures stemming from the Greek iconographic tradition, which include personifications of cosmological elements. In this manner elements of time can be encountered, such as the Four Seasons (Tropai) or the Months (Menes), the Earth (Ge) sometimes surrounded by her Fruits (Karpoi), specific celestial bodies such as the Sun (Helios), the Moon (Selene), sometimes accompanied by the Zodiac, the female marine Element (Thalassa) or the male (Okeanos, Abyssos) and the four Rivers of Paradise (Geon, Phison, Tiger and Euphrates). This thesis makes a stylistic and comparative analysis of each of these personifications, their iconography and their symbolism, in a religious context, but also in a secular one. The object of this study is to emphasise the specificity of the Eastern part of the Roman Empire between the Fourth and the Sixth centuries. And also to insist in particular on the longevity of the Greek culture and its iconographic traditions, despite an official change in religion

Full textThis study focuses on the religious traditions of the XVth Upper Egyptian province - the sepat of the Hare - whose the main city was the ancient Egyptian town of Khemenou, who became the Greek Hermopolis Magna. The chronological frame of this work covers mainly the period from the end of the native dynasties until the Roman Empire. Due to the lack of local documents, the outcomes of the scriptoria of the main Egyptian temples were considered as complementary sources to permit a reconstruction of the pantheon of the province and the legends associated with its holy places. The analysis of Greek papyrus and inscriptions relating to Hermopolis allowed to list the main sanctuaries of the city in the Ptolemaic and Roman periods. Finally, a critical review of this literature has made possible the detection of inconsistencies concerning the reconstruction of city center proposed by the archaeologists: this confusion resulting from a misinterpretation of the sources

Full textThis study aspires to acheive a catalog of portrait herms in the Roman West in order to apprehend the semantic meaning of this original figurative support. Erected since achairc times by the crossroads and doors of greek cities, herms become, under roman influence, pedestals for portraits and not only representations of divinity. Those portraits can be divided into two iconographical categories : retrospective ones reproducing features of historical figures such as Homer and Menander, and those of private citizens, sometimes dedicated to their Genius and raised in the atrium of their house. More than a simple stylistical and iconographical analysis of this corpus, this study tries to give an historical and cultural reading of thoses sculptures, from the workshop to their exhibition contexts. This approach must allow the depiction of all the actors involved in thoses dedications, the clarification of thematic choices as of the reasons for choosing these abbreviated images, the definition of their place in the private space of the Roman villas in the context of domestic cults or that of the otium

Full textThrough analysis of iconographical and textual Greek and Roman material (excluding Christian sources) from the seventh century b. C. To the third century a. D. , our goal is to describe the various forms taken by Ancient discourse on the relationships among women, taking into account their variations according to periods and literary and social contexts, and thus to define which type of human practices they were linked to, wether they could fit into the system of categorization and of moral evaluation of sexual practices, and which social imagery the discourse pertaining to these practices referred to. This study is set at a double crossroad, where the history of women and the history of sexuality on the one hand, and literary history and cultural anthropology on the other, come in conjunction. The study methods are dependent upon the type of texts that are approached, and the material is varied: melic poetry, philosophy, epigrams, satire, sophistic prose, and others

Full textThis doctoral thesis deals with xenia in Great Syria from Constantine’s reign to Justinian’s. The comparison between the Greek and the Syriac uses of the notion of hospitality brings to light important semantic modifications that reflect irreducible differences between the Pagan and Christian conceptions of hospitality. This notion gets Christianized in the course of the 4th and 5th centuries, to the point of becoming a theological topic, privilege of monastic milieux, particularly Syriac ones. But how far does the Christianization of mentalities necessarily imply a deep modification in cultural and social practices of reception and a complete change in the material structures in which reception activities take place? The study of hospitality structures and facilities reveals the durability of the localization of reception structures at the level of the Syrian territory throughout late Antiquity, even if, at the level of the structures themselves, the diversity of the solutions adopted seems to testify to a real attachment to regional traditions. Finally, the examination of the protagonists of hospitality shows that monks are far from being the only actors of hospitality in Great Syria. Besides, there is a contradiction between the standard universalist discourse of Christian welcoming and reality, as we can decipher it. The links between hospitality and dissidence have to be considered. New criteria of selection of hosts and guests appear in Late Antiquity. Heresy re-introduces the idea of specific criteria into use, which causes the “deconstruction” of the social pattern and new political stakes, which seem to influence the birth of the Non-Chalcedonian Church

Full textThis new edition of the Roman Antiquities by Dionysius of Halicarnassus is based on the ten known manuscripts about the ninth book. Only six of them have been used because they are the models of the others. So we have used the two manuscripts (chisianus r viii 60 and urbinas gr. 105) retained by the previous editions and others manuscripts (vaticanus gr. 1300, that has never been used before and recent manuscripts). This work also contains a French translation and a written commentary. The ninth book describes the struggles between the patricians and plebeians in the first half of the fifth century bc, and the wars of the Romans against the veientes, the aequians and the volscians. It illustrates, as described by Dionysius of Halicarnassus, that the romans are indeed descendants of the Greeks
Carra, Esther. "Il corpo femminile nella letteratura medica antica (Ippocrate e Sorano)." Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019SORUL049.
Full textThe subject of this work is the study of the woman’s body in the field of ancient medical literature, from both physiological and cultural aspects. The study is based on the testimony of two authors who were key figures in this reserach : Hippocrates (5th century B.C.) and Soranus (1st century B.C.). Genealogical and embryological treatises of the Hippocratic Corpus highlight the great importance of the maternal role in the image of the woman, a function by which the female body is interpreted, matter that is also confirmed in several pieces by Sorano’s Gynaecia which show an important interest for the expectant mother. Indeed, because of the negative opinion about virginity and the problems arising from infertility, motherhood became not only the guarantor of the family continuity, but also a therapeutic method which provided a state of well-being. A philological and historical-literary analysis of the treatises can clearly demonstrate the complexity of the social and anthropological indications which are abound in the treatises

Full textLaodicea-on-Sea, is the modern Lattakia located on the north Mediterranean coast of Syria. This city played an important role since it was founded by Seleucus Ie, this role mostly consisted of his coinage. The monetary history of Laodicea started 300 BC with the coinage type of Alexander the Great. Later on, municipal issues have emerged during the reign of Antiochus IV and Alexander Bala. Laodicea, after the year 82/81 struck a large number of civic tetradrachms. It has retained its role during the imperial era, and has experienced a golden age when it became the capital instead of Antioch in 194 AD. It became a colony during 198 AD under Septimius Severus. The latest coinage issue of Laodicea was made during the reign of Trebonianus Gallus (251-253 AD.) The first step of our study consists on developing a chronological corpus of the different series and monetary issues and on studying the coins. The second step of our work is on the coinage study and the pace of production and circulation of the coins. The last part of our thesis studies the history of Laodicea in the Hellenistic and Roman periods through the classical sources, the Greek and Latin inscriptions of the city that have been discovered, as well as the archaeological findings from the excavations in Lattakia and from its coinage

Full textThe present study focuses on surgery procedures in fifth and fourth century B.-C. Greece. The analysis of these procedures is based on information stemming from the text constituting the Hippocratic Corpus as well as from Hippocrates’ commentators such as Celsus and Galen- and modern surgeons. The texts analyzed particularly those named “surgical “are those describing a manual intervention on the human body, most frequently supported by an instrument considered as “surgical.” They offer indications on the pathologies treated. Certain iconographic documents are of particular interest. The confrontation between Hippocratic texts and modern surgical techniques will enable to estimate the possibility of restitution of the surgical procedures’ conditions by the Hippocratic surgeons

Full textThis thesis deals with a specific age group of young greeks in the hellenistic kingdom, later roman province of egypt, from its conquest by alexander the great until the beginning of the fourth century. The term neotes, "youth", covers the span of life which goes from the age of fourteen (ephebia) to that of thirty (neoi). This thesis, which only studies the case of young men, uses all the different sources that are available : literary, papyrological and epigraphic. Their complementarity enables us to study the different aspects of the definition of the young man : the outlook of the alexandrine poet, that of the greek novelist in the roman age, that of the roman civil servant. The first part studies how young men were perceived. This study first takes into account their ideal perception by poets and novelists, and eventually leads to their real perception as found in papyrological sources. The second part deals with the age and conditions in which the passage from childhood to youth occured, developing the questions of coming of age and ephebia. The third part examines to what extent their future was determined by their links with the army in the ptolemak age within the framework of the neaniskoi institution, with the gymnasium in the ptolemaic age, and within the framework of the augustan status of roman egypt

Full textThe christian authors of late antiquity reinterpreled the history of rome thanks to jewish and Greco-Roman heritage. The johannic tradition was taken up by Hippolytus of Rome and Commodianus, Paul's tradition by Cyprian and some ascetics. But the influence of classical conceptions of roman history was more important. The first conception, the "urban" one, praised the republican era and the conquests of the city. The second one, "Greek", gave pride of place to the imperial monarchy, which had brought about peace, prosperity and roman citizenship. The third one, "latin", exalted the republic-apart from the conquesting wars-and the princedom, which guaranted concord and well-being. The officail history was "urban" and pagan. In the third century, in spite of being christian romans, origen and eusebius of caesarea assumed a chjristian "greek" position, bringing the incarnation and the augustean government together. The Christians of Africda, from Tertullian to Lactantius, took up the "latin" conception, comparing martyrs to republican heroes. In the fourth century, Firmicus Maternus, Optatus of Milevis and Rufinus of Aquileia took up eusebius' ideas. But Jerome, ambrose and prudentius reconcilied the "greek" conceptions and the latin culture. And pope’s liberius and damasus offered a christian "urban" history of the city of the apostles, so as to refuse the ecclesiastical role of the emperor or the bishop of constantinople. In the fith century, despite the invasion orosius defended eusebius' imperial model. But Guodvultdeus and Hydatius concluded from the destruction of the roman orthodox empire that it was the end of the world. Augustine made a distinction between the futures of celestial and terrestrial cities, and was able to conceive a human destingy wihout the Roman Empire. Prosper of Aquitaine and lep the great reasserted that christian Rome followed the Rome of the Caesars, the extinction of pagnaism enabled sidonius apollinaris to take up the historical and cultural "urban" heritage

Full textThe introduction discusses the meanings of hesychia, apragmosyne and schole. The first part shows the growth of an ideal of individual and collective tranquility in archaic Greece, with special reference to the traditional praise of activity and to Pindar’s eighth pythian (translated with historical and literary commentary). The second part studies the democratic topos of the quiet citizen who is involved in politics and litigation and shows that it plays a great part in the literature of the classical period, leading to the demand for a new kind of quiet politics (Aristophanes, Euripides, Thucydides). This accounts for the growth of the schole-ideologies which the third part studies in the philosophers of the fourth century (Xenophon, Plato, Isocrates, Aristotle). Schole is no longer a paradise for idleness, but leisure time for the pursuit of higher activities, politics and philosophy, in contrast to both Demosthenes revival of the democratic topoi and the new epicurean and sceptic ideals. The conclusion emphasizes that, when praising hesychia and schole, the archaic and classical literature of ancient Greece is mainly concerned with political aims, namely the safety of the polis

Full textBecause of a lack of a major global study, cysicus coinage has for a long time seemed to be incoherent. The city corpus, from the end of the ivth century b. C, till hadrien reign, shows us an evolution of the various standards. The death of alexander the great points out the renewall of cyzicus coinage. An important mint of silver tetradrachms is initiated from 323 b. C , with the introduction of the type of apollon sat on an omphalos on the reverse. After some persic weight mints, from 323 to 315, then pseudo-ptolemaic in about 310, at last pseudophenician from 306 to 280 b. C. , the end of this coinage in about 280 shows the birth of the cyzicus attic standard, with the mint of posthumous tetradrachms of the lysimachus type. The first series are minted in about 275-270, then in 250-240, then from 220 to 215 and from 206 to 188 b. C. . From 240 to 220, cyzicus monetary policy seems to copy the byzantium punico-persic reform : demonetization, overstruck on the anterior brass coinage, and mint of a persic standard didrachm. After the peace of apamea, a new monetary reform produces a gold mint based upon the attic, persic and phenician standards, and a little silver coinage of rhodo-phenician weight. About 175 b. C. , these mints are replaced by spectacular tetradrachms with a large crown on the reverse, itselves forsaken during the troubles aristonicos causes. The brass coinage, firstly set in parallel to the silver one, colapses in the chaos of the mithridatics' wars. The first century has not been very productive, mainly with very little brass chalkoi mints. The julio-claudian period produces quite a stylistically second rate coinage, based on + mysian ; weight and not on provincial assaria. The reign of vespasian sets in cyzicus the assarion standard, with theese large coins it has never minted before. However, we must wait till the reign of domitian to see various mints. The + provincial style ; of cyzicus died during the reign of hadrian. With this emperor - and the nexts - the imperial cult become more important than ever
