Abstract:

The paper is devoted to the tacit and veiled tyranny, a concept developed by Bartolus de Saxoferrato in his treatise On the Tyrant (De tyranno), widely regarded as an outstanding representative of the commentator school. In addition to his strictly legal work, which consists of commentaries on individual parts of the Corpus iuris civilis, he is also the author of political and legal treatises, dealing with important topics for the inhabitants of late medieval Italy. In the treatise, he decided to discuss in detail the theme of tyranny from the perspective of a jurist interested in solving the

The world is too complex to explain and deconstruct without a thorough objective, fair, and deep research. Simplification of meaning becomes the alternative to thorough research. Something would be easier to understand if people could make the meaning simple. It is easier to understand if a case that involve a man as a perpetrator and especially the woman as a victim is a case of patriarchy. But there are many factors to be considered in order to judge a problematical case.

Abstract I explore the violent deaths of Jacobean heroines on stage, looking at their fetishised dead bodies as a register of male repressed fear of women’s physicality that is perceived essentially as the equation between womb and tomb. I argue that this fetishisation is a hegemonic effort to combat this fear through the consigning of the heroines’ bodies to utter destruction. However, there is a residue left from the dialectic of death and desire that runs through Jacobean tragedy and sexualises the political issue of tyranny.

Abstract This article introduces the work of Belgian designer Glenn Martens as creative director of the Paris-based brand Y/Project and its “unisex” approach to fashion. Drawing on queer theory and theories of non-binary and genderqueer identities, the proposed investigation addresses the power of fashion in rethinking bodily gender boundaries and in imagining possible escapes from the tyranny of the gender binary in fashion. To do so, I propose a qualitative multidimensional reading of the brand, in which I look at how Martens critically questions normative assumptions about masculinity and t

In the absence of a male heir, Charles VI used the opera to counter the hereditary claims of the Saxon and Bavarian Prince-electors and to advocate for the Pragmatic Sanction. Based on a Classical story by Livy, it is set in Rome republic besieged by the Etruscan king Porsenna, supporting a heir of the royal Gens Tarqunii.

Abstract: The metaphor of the king as mother drew from biblical and classical sources and evidence from nature to describe the authority and legitimacy of male rulers across early modern Europe. Maternal imagery contributed to discussions on differential relations of power and authority. For example, metaphors of nursing kings helped rulers and other officials to articulate the qualities of good rulers and relationships of power between rulers and subjects, royal ministers, and the church. Early modern notions of motherhood were cited to explain hierarchies of authority that appealed to hierar

As they embark upon a dialectical examination of justice in Plato’s Republic, Socrates admonishes his interlocutors that the pursuit of justice is for those who “see clearly”. Indeed, the dialogue itself is meant to bring about such clear-sightedness as the interlocutors dialectically winnow the various accounts of justice proposed. In like manner, Thomas More’s History of King Richard III helps his readers to see clearly the tyrant and tyranny. In the History, More presents a portrait of a tyrant and the conditions that make his tyranny possible. Crucial to this portrait is what the various c

The relationship, or better – dependence – is based on the conception that, in my opinion, is fundamental for Platonic philosophy which combines ontological and political investigations that one could call ‘opposition’s transformations’ whose extreme points are the philosoph

Publius Cornelius Tacitus, the great historian of ancient Rome, wrote Roman history with his unique perspective and sharp brushstrokes. Two of the most famous works, Agricola and Germany are impressive that deeply reflect Tacitus’s own historical thoughts and the political concepts, which take moral history as the core, opposing tyrants and tyranny, advocating the republic system. The nostalgia for the age of republican virtue and the criticism of Roman monarchy are the mainly points that Tacitus wants to show to people. At the same time, the two works are important manifestations of Tacitus’s

Abstract:

The aim of the essay is to analyse a special moment, namely the moment of the end of a tyranny. An outstanding problem is how to judge the murder of a tyrant, and the occurrences that lead to that, because these acts actually make a chain of crimes, if they’re examined without the context. Breach of the peace, mayhem, mutiny, homicide, these are acts, that are against the moral code of humanity. They have been punished by criminal laws throughout history. Therefore it is crucial to examine the circumstances of this very act. These circumstances are actually the key factors to legitimise

Abstract:

Law can be abused even in democratic states. Dictatorial regimes around the world act according to their legislation. Thus, their use and abuse of power is technically legal – however, is this also just? Radical positivism, meaning complete separation of law and morals, can turn against man. Democracy is not ipso facto just and can produce inherently evil acts (mala in se) masked by the will of the people. When people in democracy serve their selfish interests, this arguably leads to tyranny – where people eventually serve the will of the tyrant. In mature democracy, people vote for men who th

Abstract:

The article analyzes the verbal realization of the concept of dignity in O. Solzhenitsyn’s novel «The First Circle». Verbalization of the concept of dignity characterizes the positive characters of the novel and is a part of the ways of reproducing general humanistic issues, revealing the author’s intentions for both positive and negative characters, which creates contrast in describing the then civilizational ambiguous era. The humanistic orientation of the positive characters in the novel, who are marked by dignity, self-sacrifice (Nerzhin, Sologdin, Volodin), courage (Khorobrov, Rubin), hon

Abstract:

The term „tyranny‟ is considered still unfamiliar because of the lack of studies highlighting this issue. Although it has received a scant attention from scholars, the practice of tyranny has almost occured in every government. This reality triggers why a further investigation of tyranny practices needs to be conducted for contributing to Islamic political thoughts. It is expected to make the public aware of the existence of a massive form of tyranny and think critically of government policies. The current study aims to explore (1) Syahrur‟s thoughts on the concept of tyranny (al- istibdad) an

“I celebrate opacity, secretiveness, and obstruction!” pro-claimed no one, ever, in the social sciences. As with “love” and “democracy,” merely uttering the words transparency and openness generates a Pavlovian stream of linguistically induced serotonin. Who, really, would want to come out on record as a transparency-basher, an openness-hater? But as with love and democracy, it is the specific details of what is meant by transparency and openness, rather than their undeniable power and appeal as social science ideals, that most matter. This, to me, is the single most important point to be made

Abstract:

Abstract The Republic presents the characters of the philosopher and the tyrant as similar. Strongly focused by indiscriminate erotic motivation, both defy convention and lack familiar emotional responses, which make them appear to be mad. This essay argues that Plato put forward these parallels partly in order to defend Socrates from the charge of corrupting the young, partly to present a possible way to overthrow the current regime and partly to show the ineffectiveness of democracy. The very best leaders may look like tyrants; it is only through proper philosophical education that their tru

Abstract:

AbstractThe protagonist of Aristophanes's Birds rises from nowhere to become a tyrannos of the first order, but scholars disagree when assessing him. Do Peisetairos's impressive political gifts make him an apt example of competent rule, or does his treatment of his subjects mark him as guilty of hubris and perfidy? While documenting the distinguishing features of this remarkable ruler, it is argued that—Arrowsmith's eloquent essay notwithstanding—Aristophanes does not condemn him. Nor, however, does he recommend Peisetairos's rule, as Henderson suggests. Between these extremes is a more comple

Abstract:

Over the past two years, several political commentators have drawn on Plato’s Republic to shed light on our last presidential election. Many of these authors emphasize the features of democracy that make it especially susceptible to demagoguery, which heralds the arrival of tyranny, and then go on to relate this to Donald Trump’s political ascension. The problem with these analyses is that they tend to unquestioningly adopt Plato’s pessimistic view of democracy. While Plato’s criticisms do have the virtue of making us aware of democracy’s weaknesses, we would argue that our present political c

Abstract:

It is increasingly well understood that concepts of ‘humanitarian intervention’ and the ‘responsibility to protect’ enjoy a long and rich history. Nevertheless, it is surprising how plainly the arguments offered by states seeking to justify intervention in Libya in 2011 echo those used by theologians, jurists, and philosophers to justify intervention in the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. Those advocating intervention in Libya drew not just on the language of ‘human rights,’ that emerged relatively recently, but on a wider and much older range of idioms and ideas to make thei

Abstract:

H.G. Wells’s The Invisible Man reworks, and replies to, the tale of Gyges as told in book 2 of Plato’s Republic. Griffin has the same power as Gyges (invisibility) and the same ambitions (committing great crimes and becoming a tyrant), but unlike Gyges he fails because of the practical problems which his invisibility creates. Wells’s use of some Platonic themes (notably tyranny) and his youthful fascination with the Republic make it likely that The Invisible Man reflects direct borrowing from the Republic, not simply independent use of a common folklore motif. Wells takes the premise of the Gy

Scholars have noted criticism of Antony in theFirst Philippic, both political and personal in character, which would not have pleased him. The following discussion argues that there are numerous associations with the stock figure of the ‘tyrant’ which would have been displeasing too. Such a vein of criticism in effect bridges the personal and political dimensions in potentially devastating fashion.TheFirst Philippicw

Abstract:

In matters of religion, Puritans in the Massachusetts Bay Colony had to tread carefully. If they strayed from orthodox beliefs, they ran the risk of reproach and even excommunication. This was especially true of women. Ann Hutchinson is a prime example. She was initially highly popular for her home meetings, but she began to draw notice from the powerful men in the colony. Hutchinson was preaching that people could speak to God directly, essentially disempowering the church and the clergy. To one Puritan leader, John Winthrop, this kind of message was a direct threat to their power; therefore,

The evolving federal budget process has placed increasing demands on, and given unique powers to, the economic forecasters at OMB, Treasury, CBO, and the Joint Tax Committee of Congress. On the whole, the forecasters have been highly professional in their work, but differences in estimating techniques and, especially, constraints imposed on their analysis by elected officials have limited their credibility. Both the Administration and Congress “game” the system and even ignore the budget rules when convenient. Thus, a sophisticated budget process can help, but cannot assure, sound fiscal polic
