Abstract:

This article investigates the characterization of women in Orosius' Historiae adversus paganos, a subject long overlooked. The Historiae enjoyed great popularity among medieval and renaissance scholars, and the way in which Orosius portrayed women had lasting literary influence. The representation of women as exempla is also intrinsically tied into the historiographical and biographical traditions of classical Latin literature, requiring examination of both Orosius' text and the classical influences that shape his work. This article begins by analyzing selected representations of women in Orosius' Historiae and then use these representations as a focus to explore his adaptation of the classical tradition.

Abstract:

Mais de vinte anos após a morte de Valentiniano II, Orósio elaborou e propagou diferentes imagens para os imperadores da dinastia valentiniana. Através de análises realizadas na obra Historiae adversus paganos, escrita pelo presbítero no século V d.C., podemos conhecer um pouco destes personagens e, especialmente, perceber as mensagens que o autor desejava transmitir ao seu público. Sendo assim, o interesse deste artigo centra-se em saber de que maneira, através da retórica de Orósio, os indivíduos da dinastia valentiniana foram interpretados e que fatos o presbítero julgou serem pertinentes à redação de sua obra.

Abstract:

The story of the Amazons contained in the Historia adversus paganos of Orosius says nothing about the Amazons, but shows the mentality of the author of this work. Orosius believed in the existence of the kingdom of Amazons. He devoted a lot of space to the Amazons, because he saw them as relatives of the Goths. He wanted to show that the reality of his Christian’s times was no worse than the pagan’s past. Orosius summarized Epitome of Justin. Some names of queens of Amazons are different in Historia adversus paganus than in his source. In the case of Queen Sinope, it’s hard to say why.

Abstract:

W Historia adversus paganos Orozjusz wspominał mitycznego potwora Minotaura, wojnę między Ateńczykami i Kreteńczykami. Mimo że poświęcił tej opowieści dwa zdania, to jest ona ciekawa. Nie można wskazać źródła, z którego korzystał Orozjusz. Racjonalizował on opowieść o Minotaurze, nazywając go dzikim człowiekiem. Jego narracja zawiera kilka niespotykanych faktów w porównaniu z innymi opowieściami o potworze: pominął on postać Tezeusza oraz bardziej niż inni autorzy podkreślał krwawość mitycznej wojny między Atenami a Kretą.

Abstract:

Orozjusz w Historia adversus paganos, opisując chorobę i śmierć cesarza Galeriusza, przypisał mu popełnienie samobójstwa. Żadne inne źródło nie potwierdza tego faktu. W źródłach, z których korzystał Orozjusz, albo bardzo lakonicznie informuje się o zgonie władcy (Breviarium Eutropiusza, Chronicon Hieronima), albo się o tym milczy (Historia Ecclesiastica Rufina z Akwilei). Prawdopodobnie to sam Orozjusz przypisał popełnienie cesarzowi samobójstwa, gdyż uznał, że tak powinien odejść wróg Boga i chrześcijaństwa. W Biblii samobójstwo ukazane jest negatywnie. Podobnie ojcowie Kościoła potępiali popełnienie samobójstwa.

Abstract:

The article discusses the problem of reception of the description of Spain contained in the Etymologies by Isidore of Seville in Latin medieval encyclopaedias, on the background of the development of the medieval encyclopaedic trend. The etymological-geographical description of his homeland was placed by Isidore in book 14 of his work (14, 4, 28-30). This portrayal was “supplemented” in other places in the Etymologies, among other things, with an etymological-ethnographical aspect (9, 2, 109-114). When presenting Spain, Isidore based his work on works from the Antiquity. He showed mainly a Roman Spain, with few references to the contemporary situation of the country under Gothic rule. In later encyclopaedias, in which geographical sections are present, Isidore’s description of Spain is used to a varied extent. It was either repeated (Raban Maur, Vincent of Beauvais), and shortened, with minor modifications (Honorius Augustodunensis), or combined with information found in, for example, the work of Orosius (Historiae: Historiarum adversum paganos libri VII). In the latter case, the combined whole was still updated (with certain selected facts concerning contemporary Spain). Such descriptions were placed in the works of Gervase of Tilbury and Bartholomeus Anglicus. It should be noted that Gervase of Tilbury added to the presentation of Spain a fragment illustrating its division into archbishoprics and bishoprics. A comparison of medieval encyclopaedic descriptions of Spain written before the middle of the XIIIth century – that is, before the encyclopaedia Speculum maius was compiled, it can be claimed that each of them drew on the description placed in book 14 of the Etymologies; in Speculum maius, the greatest encyclopaedia of the Middle Ages, in its part entitled Speculum historiale, this description was repeated word for word, as mentioned above. It may said, that despite new descriptions of Spain (formulated in the first half of the XIIIth c. by Gervase of Tilbury and Bartholomeus Anglicus), the portrayal drawn by Isidore of Seville maintained its “validity”, as it were. Taking into account the outstanding role of medieval encyclopaedic works in the dissemination of knowledge in this epoch, it may also be claimed that the Spain of that time was perceived (at least till the middle of the XIIIth century) “through the eyes of Isidore” (this fact has its reflection in the cartography of the time). It remains to be seen how this picture changed (and if it changed for good) in the late Middle Ages.

Full text

Abstract:

This doctoral thesis concentrates exclusively on the Historiae adversus paganos, an apologetic history in seven books written by the presbyter Paulus Orosius in the early fifth century AD. This thesis is ultimately an exposition of Orosius's philosophy of history, within which the themes of divine providence, monotheism, and imperial authority are central. This thesis has endeavoured to establish what the Historiae is in terms of content, purpose, and genre, a more complex task than this simple statement suggests. At every stage of analysis this research has worked to uncover the ideology and apologetic underlying Orosius‘s historical narrative, in particular the significance behind Orosius‘s stylistic habit of rhetorical comparison. This thesis consists of six chapters, unified in methodology but encompassing a broad diversity of subject matter. Chapter One examines the constructed text and its genre, as well as issues of opponent, audience and self-representation. Chapter Two provides a philosophical and technical treatment of time. Chapters Three and Four explore the representations of monotheism and imperial authority in the emperors Augustus and Theodosius. Chapter Five is concerned with Orosius‘s representation of warfare, and Chapter Six considers the retributive and redemptive aspect of the sack of Rome.

Abstract:

This paper consists of the translation and analysis of Chapters 1-15 of Book V of Historiarum adversus paganos libri VIII by Paulus Orosius. The analysis is based on a comprehensive commentary on linguistic and stylistic aspects of the texts examined, and on a thorough factual commentary. The linguistic commentary concentrates on the composition of the Fifth Book, on the construction of discourse by the means of particles and other discourse markers, as well as on the linguistic features and peculiarities distinctive for the author, his age and the genre of historiography (such as specifically Late Latin syntax, non-Classical vocabulary, rhetorical figures, tropes and other stylistic features). The factual commentary contains a detailed description of the events mentioned in the text and their historical context. Close attention is paid to the character of the author's narrative, his approach to the historical data, choice of the events that interest him most as well as the way in which the author portraits them as mutually connected. Among the questions important for the commentary are whether he follows the wider tradition of Roman historiography or if and in which way the author's own opinions and persuasions are reflected in his work. This section also comments on the relation between Orosius'...
