Abstract:

Allemansrätten är ett kandidatarbete som utifrån det givna programmet för fiskmarknad på Skeppsbron i Stockholm, ämnar besvara frågan; hur denna plats på mesta möjliga sätt kan tjäna flest? Förslaget tar till vara och inkorporerar det gamla tullhuset i sitt program. Avsikten har varit att med utgångspunkt i tullhusets i-balkskonstruktion och låglutande sadeltak, inspireras av det gamla, utan att nostalgiskt kopiera. Placeringen av tillägget har styrts av befintliga siktlinjer mellan Järntorget och Skeppsbron, där förhoppningen varit att öka människoflödet till och från Gamla stan genom en ny plats i blickfånget. En restaurang, ett torg, en saluhall, en sushibar och ett fiskrenseri levandegör kajen året runt och över dygnets alla timmar. Samtidigt erbjuds förbipasserande en naken inblick i hanteringen av fisk från nyfångad, till bearbetad råvara över disk och slutligen den förädlade rätten på tallriken. Restaurang Allemansrätten serverar en rätt om dagen utifrån tillgång, ej efterfrågan. Platsen i sig erbjuder sittplatser utomhus för var man, när som helst, samt aspirerar på att belysa det personliga ansvar vi bär som konsumenter och medmänniskor.
The right of public access is a proposition for a fish market at Skeppsbron in Stockholm. The posed question to begin with has been; how to make this into a site that in numerous ways can relate to a wide range of people. Incorporated in this proposition is the old customhouse which is located on the site today. With the intention to be inspired by the old but without plagiarizing, the constructive elements and shapes can be recognised in the new supplement. Located in a way that makes it visible from Järntorget, the idea is to increase the movement of pedestrians between Old town and Skeppsbron. The new site holds a restaurant, a square, a marketplace and a sushi bar in an ambition to make this a place with activity all year around every hour of the day. Pedestrians are also given the opportunity to see for themselves the handling of fish from newly catched, to dinner on a plate. The restaurant serves one dish a day, based upon accessibility, not demand. The square itself offers places to sit down for anyone at anytime and aspires to remind us of the individual responsibility of our own consumption.

Abstract:

mat är en del av dagarna vi lever. fisk är en del av staden vi bor i. nu som då möts vi där - vid bordet, över disken, i hamnen.på skeppsbron är avstånden små och stora. den sociala scenen och hamnens råhet är båda en del av karraktären. så har platsen alltid fungerat och spåren finns i var gatsten. genom renseriet, rökeriet och bistron får gästerna ta del av hela fiskens förädlingsprocess. från den ocensurerade rensningen, beredningen i rökeriet till den tillagade måltiden i bistron.de tullhus i funkisstil som idag ses på kajen talar om skeppsbron i alla dess lager. paul hedqvists enkla bruksarkitektur är beviset på insikter vi kan lära av. genom att bevara tullhuset och låta bistron ta rum i det slitna skalet rycks inga lager bort.min byggnad består av två volymer - renseriet och rökeriet. precis som tullhusen är de varierande i skala och interiöra material. besökaren ska kunna läsa av processen i arkitekturen. rensieriets kala betong mot rökeriets kakelbeklädnad, till bistrons varma träbeklädnad.mitt förslag undersöker tiden som var och tiden som är. fast mest den tid som ännu inte finns. om mötena vid bordet, över disken, i hamnen som ännu inte hänt. skeppsbron kan vara en plats för det, igen.
food is a part of the days we live. fish is a part of the city we live in. we meet at the table, at the counter, in the harbour. like we always have done, like we always will. the distances at skeppsbron are both small and large. the social scene and the harbours rawness are both a part of the character. skeppsbron has always been like that, and the traces are to be found in every cobblestone. through the cleanery, smokery and the bistro the guests take part of the whole process of the fish. from the uncensored cleaning, the preparation in the smokery to the cooked meal in the bistro. the customs house on the site are build in an functionalistic architectural tradition designed by paul hedqvist. the simple construction says something about the place, that we can learn from. by keeping the building all the layers of the place are kept. my building consists of two volumes - the cleanery and smokery. like the costums house they are varying in scale and interior materials. the guest should be able to read the process in the architecture. the cleanery’s naked concreteagainst the smokery’s tile covering, to the bistro’s warm plywood interior. my proposition investigates the time that was and the time that is, but above all the time that is yet to come. about the meetings at the table, at the counter and and in the harbour that has not happened. skeppsbron might be a place for that, again.

Abstract:

The starting point of the project has been to investigate how Blasieholmen’s public spaces can be improved, taking into account the criticism that stopped the Nobel Center. The three buildings at Blasieholmsudden (Tullhuset, North & South warehouse) have undergone many changes since port operations ended in 1942. To present the buildings accurately and to study the site carefully, a large part of the work has been dedicated to document and understand Blasieholmsudden through photography, sketches, and measurements.

Abstract:

Här är norr, här är Stockholm simmande palats och ruckel. Tomas Tranströmer: Inomhuset är oändligt ur För levande och döda (1989) Skeppsbron i Stockholm är ett stadsrum i förändring. I och med att Slussens ombyggnad står för dörren väntar en ny framtid platsen. Den äger en stor potential men upplevs idag som bortglömd och själlös. Trots sin historia som Sveriges främsta hamn och marknadsplats är det få som avsiktligen kommer hit. I mitt projekt har jag försökt att, med hjälp av Tranströmers poesi och tecknande av rummet, försökt finna platsens karaktär och själ, samt utifrån vad jag funnit addera nya program och rumssamband till platsen. Förslaget är en sekvens som gradvis behåller, skalar av och skippar befintliga tullhus. Mina huvudsyften har varit att tillgängliggöra, koppla samman samt inte minst att bereda plats för människan. Jag kommer för sällan fram till vattnet. Men nu är jag här, bland stora stenar med fridfulla ryggar. Stenar som långsamt vandrat baklänges upp ur vågorna Tomas Tranströmer: Långsam musik ur Klanger och spår (1966)
Here is the north, here is Stockholm swimming palaces and hovels. Tomas Tranströmer: Indoors is endless from For the Living and the Dead (1989) Skeppsbron is a Stockholm cityscape going through changes. With the refurbishment of Slussen in the works, a whole new future awaits the site. It is a place full of potential, but at the moment neglected and lacking character. The small number of people deliberately visiting Skeppsbron belies its historical importance as the main port and marketplace of Sweden. My project is an attempt to find the soul and essence of the place, using Tranströmers poetry and my own drawings as a starting point. Building on my findings I have added new programs and spatial connections to the site. The proposal includes a sequence gradually moving from conserving, to stripping down to altogether removing existing pavilions. My main aspirations have been improving accessibility, interconnecting and last but not least making way for people. I come down to the water too seldom. But here I am now, among large stones with peaceful backs. Stones which slowly migrated backwards up out of the waves. Tomas Tranströmer: Slow Music from Bells and Tracks (1966)

Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2000.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study is to explore Marcus Tullius Cicero's awareness and interpretation of contemporary political events as reflected in his private correspondence during the last years of both the Roman republic and his own life. Cicero's correspondence gives a detailed view of current political events in Rome and constitutes, with Caesar's own narrative, our major contemporary evidence for the circumstances of the civil war of 49 BC. The dissertation takes as Leitmotiv Cicero's own judgement of the state as 'sacrificial victim' to the ambitions of individual politicians, with as metaphor his examination of a 'dying' body politic in the manner of a haruspex inspecting the entrails of a sacrificial animal. It poses the question whether Cicero understood the message of political decline signalled by the 'entrails' of the 'carcass' of the res publica, and whether this ability in its turn enabled him to anticipate future political development in Rome. In what follows, the theoretical input of Cicero's predecessors, their perceptions of constitutional development, and of Roman politics in particular, as well as Cicero's own perception of their political theories will be considered in order to determine the extent of Cicero's awareness of a larger pattern of political events, and how consistent he was in his analyses of such patterns, that is, to what extent Cicero may be considered seriously as a political analyst.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die oogmerk van die verhandeling is om vas te stel of Marcus Tullius Cicero met reg daaop kan aanspraak maak dat hy eietydse politieke gebeure sinvol kon interpreteer as die manifestering van 'n nuwe politieke stroming wat die voorkoms van die toekomstige Romeinse politieke toneel sou bepaal. Cicero se waarneming en begrip van eietydse politieke gebeure in die laaste paar jaar van die Romeinse Republiek en sy eie lewe word tekenend weerspieël in sy persoonlike briefwisseling uit die tydperk 51 tot 43 v.C. As historiese dokument bied hierdie korrespondensie, as primêre bronmateriaal, naas die behoue kontemporêre beriggewing van Julius Caesar, die enigste ander kontemporêre getuienis vir die uitbreek en nadraai van die burgeroorlog van 49 v.C. Die sentrale tema van die verhandeling is Cicero se persepsie van die Romeinse staat as die 'slagoffer' van magsugtige politieke rolspelers. Cicero se rol as waarnemer en politieke analis word uitgebeeld deur die metafoor van 'n haruspex (profeet) wat die 'ingewande' van die 'karkas' van die gestorwe Romeinse Republiek ondersoek. Die kernvraag wat gestel word is, of Cicero inderdaad daartoe in staat was om die boodskap van politieke verandering raak te lees, die implikasies daarvan te begryp en daarvolgens 'n beredeneerde toekomsprojeksie van die Romeinse politieke toneel te maak. Om te bepaal of Cicero meriete verdien as 'n politieke analis, word die volgende kriteria as toetsstene gebruik: die teoretiese insette van Cicero se voorgangers en sy beheersing van sodanige politieke teoretisering, die mate waarin hy konsekwent en objektief kon oordeel, en die mate waarin hy teorie en die praktiese werklikheid van die Romeinse politieke situasie kon integreer.

Abstract:

The upper Wilcox group in the Tullos-Urania oilfield has not been imaged with enough resolution for interpretation. Prior seismic data collected in the area was designed for formations much deeper than the Wilcox Group. The purpose of this investigation was to produce an image of the subsurface and identify formations of interest for production of oil and gas by applying different processing methods. With an optimal processing workflow and use of limited well logs, an interpretation of the data was provided to the oil company.

The advantage of using an accelerated weight-drop source is the shallow horizons, ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 feet in-depth, become distinct with higher resolution. The acquisition achieved a dominant frequency averaging around 45–65 Hz compared to a nearby pre-existing 3D survey volume with a dominant frequency range of 15–35 Hz. Refracted waves dominated the unprocessed shot records from this data. Consequently, the field records had a significantly low signal-noise ratio. Therefore, the most critical processing steps focused on signal processing and velocity analysis. Without enough ground roll and noise suppression, the velocity analysis would not have been coherent. Some obstacles faced with processing the data included a sparse horizontal sampling and a lack of velocity logs along the seismic line.

The results of this study included a set of stacked lines, velocity models, and an optimal processing workflow for future high-frequency shallow seismic exploration surveys in the vicinity of LaSalle, LA. These results have concluded seismic surveying with an accelerated weight-drop source is a cost-effective method to produce a high- resolution cross-section of the high and low-velocity sand and shale channels of the fluvial Wilcox strata of Northern Louisiana. Further research should look to build on these results and gather a 3D survey to image the structure of the Tullos-Urania oilfield and identify hydrocarbons-in-place.

Full text

Abstract:

The aim of this dissertation is to explain the meaning of concordia surveying the historical context in which it emerged. The thesis concentrates on the period 63--43 B.C. because it is in this crucial period that the concept achieves its most articulate and influential defence by the Roman orator, statesman, and philosopher, Marcus Tullius Cicero. My intention is to review the important writings and speeches of Cicero and to situate them in the political struggles in which he was implicated.
By placing the concept of concordia in this political context, a clearer picture emerges than is available in the current literature about how Cicero promoted, defended, and skillfully redefined the concept of concordia in order to achieve his political aims. What emerges are three identifiable meanings of the concept of concordia . The first is the longstanding conventional Roman republican idea of concordia as unity, friendship, and agreement. The second is what Cicero called the concordia ordinum, an innovative idea of concordia as a harmony or coalition of the two Roman orders of the senate and equites. The third is the idea of concordia as a consensus omnium bonorum---what Cicero called concordia civium or concordia civitatis . This idea represents an important shift in the thinking of the Roman orator who began to see the survival of the republic as depending on a consensus that went beyond the coalition of the senate and equites.

Abstract:

As a classical scholar and prominent founding father, James Wilson was at once statesman, judge, and political thinker, who read Cicero as an example worthy of emulation and as a philosopher whose theory could be applied to his own age. Classical reception studies have focused on questions of liberty, civic virtue, and constitutionalism in the American founding, and historians have also noted Wilson’s importance in American history and thought. Wilson’s direct engagement with Cicero’s works, however, and their significance in the formulation of his own philosophy has been long overlooked. My thesis argues that Wilson’s viewpoint was largely based on his readings of Cicero and can only be properly understood within this context. In the first two chapters of my thesis I demonstrate that Wilson not only possessed a wide-ranging knowledge of the classics in general, but also that he borrowed from Cicero’s writings and directly engaged with the texts themselves. Building upon this foundation, chapters three and four examine Cicero’s perspective on popular sovereignty and civic virtue, situate Wilson’s interpretations within contemporary discussions of Roman politics, and analyse the main ways in which he adapts Cicero’s arguments to his own era. Wilson retains a broader faith in the common people than seen in Cicero’s opinions, and he abstracts from Cicero a doctrine of sovereignty as an indivisible principle that is absent in the text; nevertheless, Cicero’s conception of a legitimate state and his insistence on the role of the people provided the foundation for Wilson’s thought and ultimately for his legitimization of the American Revolution. At the same time, like Cicero, Wilson views the stability of the state as resting in the personal virtue of the individual. While his enlightenment philosophy imparts optimism to his conception of the good citizen, his definition of virtue closely follows that of Cicero. As the final chapter of my thesis concludes, their individual interpretations of these theories of popular consent and virtue were instrumental in forming Cicero’s and Wilson’s justifications of civil disobedience.

Abstract:

In a field as old as Classics, it difficult to find truly innovative approaches to literary works that have been studied for millennia, and it only becomes more difficult to find something new to explore in works as fundamental to the field as Marcus Tullius Cicero’s. However, in the burgeoning field of Digital Humanities, new avenues for textual exploration arise even among the over-picked rubble that is the Classical World. Through the use of computer software, we can search through and statistically analyze corpora of massive sizes. This project uses such techniques to perform a mesoanalysis of Cicero’s corpus. Through the use of R and Gephi, I will “read” Cicero’s works from a distance and see a much broader view of his character than I could through a traditional close reading of a few texts. This mesoanalysis includes a stylometric analysis of Cicero’s entire corpus, a sentiment analysis of his orations, and a network analysis of his letters. The sentiment analysis will explore Cicero as a literary figure. Through a hierarchical cluster analysis in R, I will assess not only how his style changes from genre to genre but within a genre (orations) as well. That analysis will close with an exploration of the lexical richness of his works, how it varies from genre to genre and over his lifetime. For the sentiment analysis, I built a lexicon based on Stoic theory, primarily as it is explained in the Tusculunae Disputationes, and Robert Kaster’s work with emotional scripts. After the lexicon was built, I applied it to Cicero’s orations in a method similar to Matthew Jockers’ syuzhet package for R, and I traced his use of sentiment across the speech. I then compared those trajectories to Latin rhetorical theory, especially the theories included in Cicero’s own treatises, in order to see if Cicero had put into effect his own advice or if he had a few techniques that he kept hidden. The mesoanalysis closes with a network analysis of the Epistulae ad Familiares. I merged Cicero’s social network with a sentiment analysis in order to assess how Cicero felt about and interacted with his peers. From this analysis, one could gather an idea of Cicero as a person. At the end of the mesoanalysis, we can attain a much broader sense of Cicero’s character. This project also has a second aim, and that is to explain how these techniques could be applied to other literary corpora, outside of Cicero’s and Latin. I have carefully detailed my process and provide more instruction in my appendices so that readers could attempt these analyses and be successful in them.

Abstract:

L'objet de cette thèse est l'étude de la « Muraille Servienne », monument fondamental pour l’investigation et la compréhension de l’Époque archaïque. Cette recherche est principalement née de la nécessité de localiser et, en même temps, de dater le plus ancien circuit des remparts de la Rome antique. Il s’agit, en effet, d’un sujet qui est encore aujourd’hui très controversé. Ce travail a permis d’obtenir des données qui confirment l'existence de l’enceinte urbaine au VIe s. av. J.-C., conformément aux sources antiques, selon lesquelles la première enceinte de Rome fut construit par le roi Servius Tullius (578-535 av. J.-C.). La fortification de l’Époque royale présente à peu près la même extension que celle républicaine (IVe s. av. J.-C. ); ce cas fut jugé inacceptable par plusieurs experts et fut souvent utilisé comme preuve pour réfuter l'existence d'une muraille continue au VIe s. av. J.-C. : ce qui reviendrait presque à nier le développement de « La grande Roma dei Tarquini »
The aim of this research is to investigate the “Servian Wall”, a fundamental monument for the study and the comprehension of the Archaic Age. The main target of this analysis is to recognize and, at the same time, to attribute a date to the earliest city-wall of Rome. Effectively, there are still several questions and unsolved problems related to these topics. This dissertation confirms the existence of the circuit walls of Rome in the VIth BC, in accordance with literary sources: the earliest city-wall, indeed, is traditionally attributed to the king Servius Tullius (578-535 BC) by ancient authors. The extension of the archaic fortification almost corresponded to those of the Republican walls (IVth century BC); this matter is considered unacceptable by different scholars, who usually exploited it as an evidence to refute the existence of a circuit wall during the VIth BC.: a theory that would deny, indirectly, the well-known development of the so called “Grande Roma dei Tarquini”
Questo lavoro è iniziato sulla base di ricerche storico-archeologicheche svolgo su Roma Antica, in special modo nel periodo compreso fra l’EtàArcaica e il primo secolo della Repubblica. Le ricerche e le scopertearcheologiche degli ultimi decenni hanno modificato radicalmente il quadrodelle conoscenze relative a questo periodo, e il presente lavoro intendeapprofondire lo studio della più antica cinta di Roma. La storia di Roma è,infatti, anche quella delle sue mura: come linea tangibile che racchiude lacittà in uno spazio predeterminato e sacralizzato, fatto che condiziona i limitidella città stessa, determinando conseguenze non solo puramente praticheed utilitarie, ma anche religiose ed istituzionali.Tale ricerca è nata principalmente da una necessità: quella diindividuare e al tempo stesso datare la prima cinta dell’Urbs. Questiargomenti, infatti, costituiscono ancora oggi un tema dibattuto, e nondefinitivamente risolto. Fra gli studiosi che si sono occupati dell’argomento, ineffetti, molti affermano l’esistenza di un circuito murario arcaico,coerentemente con quanto tramandato dalle fonti letterarie, che insistonosulla costruzione di un’opera di una cinta attribuita ai Tarquini, ed inparticolare a Servio Tullio; sarebbe questa la prima cinta di Roma, che i restiin tufo locale (cappellaccio) potranno confermare.

Abstract:

Apresenta-se tradução do Orator de Cícero precedida de estudo. Propõe-se que, quando confrontado com a maledicência dos que se dizem áticos, Cícero remete a controvérsia particular à questão acerca do gênero universal, ou thésis, tratando do gênero para responder às partes e tratando da coisa para responder aos homens. Por tratar-se de coisas, recorre-se em geral à doutrina das coisas, isto é, à filosofia, e em particular a duas de suas artes, a tópica e a dialética. Analisa-se portanto o método dialético e tópico empregado pelo autor para resolver a questão acerca do melhor gênero do discursar. Argumenta-se que Cícero compara as espécies do discurso entre si e define a forma do orador perfeito para exprimir a sua imagem, imagem que servirá de critério para julgar, conforme a maior ou menor semelhança em relação a ela, os oradores que vemos e ouvimos.
I present the reader with a translation into Portuguese of Ciceros Orator with introduction. I propose that, when confronted with the invectives of the so-called Attics, Cicero sends back this controversy to the question about the universal kind, or thésis, speaking about the genus in order to give a response to the parts, and speaking about things to give a response to men. Because Cicero speaks about things, he employs the doctrine of things, i.e. Philosophy, making use of two of its arts, Topics and Dialectics. I analyse therefore the topical and dialectical method the author applies to solve the question about the best kind of speech. I argue that Cicero applies this method to compare the species of speech and to define the form of the perfect orator so that he may express its image, a image that will be used as a criterion to judge, in proportion to their likeness to it, the orators we can see and hear.

Abstract:

Som fisken i vattnet, ett projekt som tagit sin utgångspunkt i att återigen skapa liv på Skeppsbrokajen. Förhoppningen med projektet har varit att skapa en fiskmarknad som inte bara är en mötesplats utan en attraktionskraft. Från tidig morgon till sen kväll sker ett skådespel av fiskaktiviteter. Projektnamnet Som fisken i vattnet har en historisk referens till fiskeköparnas sumpar, vilka fanns på platsen under början av 1900-talet. Marknaden har tack vare denna referens delvis placeras under befintlig kajnivå för att frigöra yta och skapa en lämplig miljö för livsmedel. Känsla av närhet till havet förtydligas genom en helglasad vägg, vilken är enda skyddet mellan Saltsjön och besökaren. Marknaden ligger i liv med kajen precis emellan två av Gamla stans gränder. Marknadens två våningsplan är anpassade för två typer av besökare; den snabbare förbipasserande kunden samt de kunder som vill uppleva marknaden till fullo. Visionen är att besökaren ska kunna följa fiskens rörelse och process bakom glasade väggar, från det att den kommer in till marknaden till förädling och försäljning.
Baltic fish tank is a project generated with the aim to recreate vivacity at Skeppsbrokajen by adding a fish market that is not only a venue but also an attractive force within itself. From early mornings to late evenings the market will offer a scene of fishing activities. The project name Baltic fish tank has a historical reference to the fish buyers sumps, which existed on the site during the early 1900s. The market is therefore placed under the existing quay level to free space on the embankment as well as create a suitable environment for seafood. A glass wall is the only thing separating the Baltic sea from the visitor and heightens the feeling of closeness to the ocean. The marketplace is situated in between two of the Old Town's alleys. The floors of the building are designed for two types of visitors; the client passing by and the consumer who wants the full fish market experience. The vision is to enhance the visitors’ experience, allowing the consumer to follow the fish from the fisherman’s hand to the cold ice display out in the marketplace. The entire process including the gutting of the fish is easily followed through the glass walls adding to a full transparency.

Abstract:

Cette recherche etudie comment les membres du senat pensent, definissent et utilisent, dans la vie politique, l'implantation de leur domus. Apres avoir etabli le corpus topographique et qualitatif des maisons et montre le role eminent joue par les localisations centrales (palatin, carenes, proximite du forum), ce travail distingue quatre strategies d'insertion dans l'espace urbain : strategies familiale (autour de la maison gentilice), agregative (par la constitution d'ensembles immobiliers contigus) ou polycentrique et aspiration a la maison "publique". Il envisage ensuite la gestion politique de la situation de la maison, en tentant de cerner le territoire politique (principalement a travers le role du voisinage), en soulignant le caractere ostentatoire de la domus (mise en scene des entrees et sorties des senateurs, role u vestibulum et des perspectives visuelles) et en evoquant l'image ideale de la maison (maison pleine, maison-forum ou cite). L'importance de la maison est confirmee par les invectives et pratiques propres a la "crise" de la republique romaine. Les violences contre les maisons servent souvent de moyen de pression politique et l'arasement consecutif a une mesure publique est un chatiment supreme, comme en temoigne le sort de la maison de ciceron. Les fonctions de propagande et le role de la maison dans l'affirmation des personnalites politiques sont affinees a partir de quelques exemples significatifs : choix urbanistiques contrastes de q. Lutatius catulus et de c. Marius, realisations de p. Clodius pulcher en 58 57, gestion de la maison "publique" par cesar, constitution, par octave auguste d'un complexe palatin
This research analyses how roman senators think about, define and use the sites of their domus in their political lives. After establishing the topographical and qualitative corpus of the houses and showing the eminent part taken by central places (palatine, vicinity of the forum, carinae) four strategies of insertion in the urban space have been distinguished : the familial one (around the gentilice house), the grouping one (constituting adjacent housing developments), the polycentrical one and the aspiration to the public domus. Then the political administration of the house site has been characterized, describing its political territory (particularly through the function of vicinity), emphasizing the ostentatious nature of the domus (through the analysis of senators' coming and going, the function of vestibulum and the field of vision) and trying to define the ideal picture of the house (a house full of people, a house like a forum or a city). The importance of the house is confirmed by invectives and practices characteristic of the "crisis" of the roman republic. Houses are often vandalized as a political means of pressure, and the destruction due to a public decision is a supreme punishment, as is shown by cicero's house destiny. The functions of propaganda and the part taken by the house in politicians' careers have been precisely analysed through a few significant instances : q. Lutatius catulus' and c. Marius' different urbanistical options, p. Clodius pulcher's realizations in 58-57 b. C. , caesar's use of the domus publica, octavius-augustus' composition of a palatine complex

Abstract:

The thesis consists of five chapters: the first functions as an overture; the second, third and fourth deal with Plato, Cicero and Montaigne respectively; and the fifth raises some questions. The overture explores the ways in which Odysseus, Lucretius and Seneca approached death, and in the process introduces some obvious distinctions - between death viewed as the act of dying and death viewed as the state of being dead, between the death which comes to everyone and the death which comes to me, between our own death and the death of others - and anticipates certain recurring themes. The second chapter, on Plato, is concerned chiefly with the Phaedo and the question of what is involved in "the practice of death". This entails an examination of related concepts and terminology in the Gorgias and the Republic, and of the whole subject of Platonic myth. The third chapter discusses Cicero's views on death and immortality - both the considered reflections of the philosopher and the spontaneous reactions of the bereaved father - principally as these emerge from the Tusculan Disputations and the letters to Atticus. The fourth chapter approaches Montaigne - his own experiences of death, the relationship between his earlier and later approaches, the tension between his professed Catholicism and his pagan inclinations, the difficulty and perhaps undesirability of extracting a 'message' from the Essais on this or any other subject. The conclusion asks to what extent these various approaches succeed in what they set out to do, and whether any generalised, objective approach to death can ever successfully address the individual predicament, either in relation to one's own death or in facing bereavement.

Full text

Abstract:

Ce mémoire tente de faire le point sur les impacts d'une tendance étonnante de la société romaine de l'époque républicaine: le philhellénisme, c'est-à-dire le sentiment favorable manifesté envers les Grecs, pourtant vaincus par Rome, et leur culture. Pour réaliser cet objectif, le terme de philhellène doit d'abord être défini. Ensuite, l'étude d'une source abondante, la Correspondance de Marcus Cicéron, permet une étude de cas pouvant jeter un certain éclairage sur les motivations des philhellènes et leurs impacts sur le monde grec. Le premier chapitre aborde les principaux philhellènes connus. II tente de cerner dans quelle mesure ils ont pu influer sur l'hellénisme en général et les Hellènes en particulier. Le second chapitre étudie les manifestations de philhellénisme de Marcus Tullius Cicéron et en dégage les impacts connus. Le dernier chapitre tente la même démarche au sujet du jeune frère de l'orateur, Quintus. La mise en parallèle des actions des deux frères avec les tendances générales du philhellénisme de leur époque permet finalement de remarquer que Marcus a posé les jalons d'une culture proprement gréco-romaine, profitable tant aux occidentaux qu'aux orientaux, tandis que Quintus a plutôt vogué sur la vague du courant culturel, tout en laissant aux Grecs un souvenir favorable. ______________________________________________________________________________ MOTS-CLÉS DE L’AUTEUR : Cicéron, Philhellénisme, Hellénisme, Rome, Grèce.

Ige, Johnson Olusegun. "The rhetoric of gender in Cicero : oratorical hegemony and the manipulation of gender identity." Thesis, 2001. http://hdl.handle.net/10413/5833.

Full text

Abstract:

My contention in this thesis is that gender identity in Ciceronian oratorical performance is a rhetorical tool that has two aspects: first, it enables Cicero as an orator to gain access to forensic space, and second, it facilitates the persuasion of his audience. The aim of this work is to discuss the concept of oratorical hegemony within a Ciceronian context; it is based on the idea that rhetoric functions in a political space essentially as a tool for governance regardless of the ideological leaning of the speaker or of the political or social body that he represents. The position taken in this thesis is that the rhetoric of a political orator such as Cicero is connected with a range of other factors that empower and lend versatility to his rhetorical position. Invariably, an orator such as Cicero has to manoeuvre within a wider context than what any particular speech situation might suggest on the surface. As a basis for examination, I have developed three models to create an appropriate framework for the discussions on oratorical hegemony. The first model, which I have termed the Anatomy of a Speech, shows only the stages of preparation and of the delivery of a speech. The second model, the Ciceronian Improvisatory Model, depicts the development of Cicero in his speeches during different periods of his public career. The third model, which I call the Phallic Model of Hegemonic Masculinity, is a sociological model constructed to accommodate the different structures of Roman Society. My deconstruction of the different sectors of the model form the core chapters in this thesis. Although this model has been informed by the close reading of social history that features in most discourses on gender, my discussion of the model implicitly challenges the view that women were universally and equally oppressed across races and cultures. My more important argument is that gender identity becomes not only a rhetorical tool in the hands of the orator but also a manipulative 'sign' within a social discourse. Although basic class and gender distinctions may be implicit in the orator's delivery. what matters more is his ability to deploy strategically the rhetorical means at his disposal. Issues relating to power, nationalism and the representation of men, women and slaves are discussed in connection with the orator's performance strategies in a political context. Because the Roman public forum is associated with competition and the young Roman male aspired to high honours and political attainments (laus et gloria) , power becomes a major issue in my discussion. The orator's quest for political and rhetorical glory entails challenging the best orators in the state and questioning the rationale behind the tendencies of some government administrators to abuse the rights of other members of civil society who are not as highly placed as they are in government. The orator progressively wields power through his performance of rhetoric, although when he is in the process of gaining national recognition for excellent speaking, he is apt to argue that his paramount concern is what is best for the state. Hard work in the oratorical arena often resulted in a high political profile for the orator, which occasionally led to the attainment of a powerful political position such as a consulship, a position achieved by Gieero himself in 63 BC. Cieero's ability to represent himself, contemporary events and his subjects imaginatively while delivering his speeches enabled him to persuade his audience on many occasions. Cicero's alternation between the spaces of senate and general assembly as consul and the kind of discourses that he develops in each space are important subjects of discussion in this thesis. Furthermore, Cicero's private persona is considered by examining his fears and anxieties to establish how much distance there is between his public self and private self. Within a cluster of personae, the stress to which Cicero is subjected opens him up to express in the oratorical arena certain fears that normally are meant for the private space in a Roman context. To complete my deconstruction of the Phallic Model of Hegemonic Masculinity, I have chosen to discuss Cicero's representation of slaves as a social manifestation of the bottom rung of the Roman world. Because discussions of oratorical hegemony in the Roman republic not only undertake to consider how it is used as a tool for governance but also its effect upon slaves, who represent the lowest stratum of the social order, this thesis examines Cicero's representation of the role, function and employment of slaves in respect to the power relations that existed between the dominant group and that particular subordinated group. In the final analysis, oratorical hegemony is not a paradigm for a specific orator. Oratorical hegemony functions among a group of orators who have gained political ascendancy through their performance of rhetoric. Cicero is not just a historical figure but he also represents a concept or form of oratorical hegemony. This thesis ultimately explains how Cicero selVes as a model for the exercise of this kind of oratorical practice.

Abstract:

This dissertation examines Cicero’s contribution to the rise of astronomy and astrology in the literary and cultural milieu of the late Republic and early Empire. Chapter One, “Rome’s Star Poet,” examines how Cicero conceives of world building through words to connect Rome to the stars with the Latin language. Through a close study of the Aratea, I consider how Cicero’s pioneering of Latin astronomical language influenced other writers, especially his contemporaries Lucretius and Catullus. In Chapter Two, “The Stars and the Statesman,” I examine Cicero’s attitudes towards politics. By analyzing Scipio’s Dream and astronomy in De re publica, I show how Cicero uses cosmic models to yoke Rome to the stars. To understand the astral dimensions of Cicero’s philosophy, in Chapter Three, “Signs and Stars, Words and Worlds,” I provide a close reading of Cicero’s poetic quotations in context in the De natura deorum and De divinatione to show how Cicero puts the Aratean cosmos to the test in Academic fashion. Ultimately, I argue that Cicero profoundly shaped the Roman view of the stars and cemented the link between cosmos and empire.

Full text

Abstract:

As is clear from the title, this thesis presents a comparison of Schenkerian and Ciceronian principles. The thesis will focus mainly on the characteristics of the creative process essential for producing a sublime and intellectual work. Admittedly comparing a Roman lawyer/philosopher (Cicero) to a 20th century musician/theorist (Schenker) will bring forth many obstacles and will suffer from numerous imperfections. Stressing the commonalties between two men of time frames too far apart is an arduous task. I found it most helpful to go about this problem through three stages: first, by presenting an overview of the lives, historical circumstances, and careers of the two mentioned figures; second, by presenting a basic comparison of the two branches of thought; and third, by dealing with some of the more complicated philosophical issues for a better understanding of the two doctrines. Since many of the Schenkerian and Ciceronian principles are heavily rooted in Platonism, an overview of Plato's theory of 'forms and ideas' is presented to guide the reader toward a better grasp of the concepts. The reader may, however, be uncertain regarding the objective of this thesis: is this a comparison of the two philosophies or an evaluation of them? Of course, in order to achieve a satisfactory comparison, one must first understand the two philosophies; this demands an explicit analysis which, in my view, is a form of evaluation. I have also shown and questioned some of the ambiguities of the two philosophies without offering any solutions. This will perhaps help the reader to understand the path I had to take in completing this thesis. I have included these philosophical remarks in the endnotes. Furthermore, Schenkerian philosophy reveals many other important influences other than Platonism; although not the focus of this thesis, numerous references to great thinkers such as Nietzsche, Spinoza, Hanslick, and Freud illustrate this point. Much of the presented bibliographical material on the life of Cicero can be found in the On the Commonwealth and On the Laws. Furthermore, Michael B. Fuster's Masters of Political Thought has been used as a source of reference for a great portion of the philosophical interpretations. Much of what I have presented on Schenker and Schenkerian literature has been gathered through my studies and conversations with Dr. Benjamin, my advisor: the most reliable source with whom I am acquainted. This is perhaps the reason for not including any other philosophical writings on Schenkerian literature in the bibliography.

Full text

Abstract:

Traditional accounts of ancient law make the following generalizations: Athenian law was a system of amateurs and, consequently, arbitrary and irrational. Roman law, by contrast, gradually became a system of specialized professionals. Legal scholars (jurists) interpreted and developed the law and advocates represented litigants. Thanks to specialization, Roman law became rational and consistent--a foundation for Rome's imperial administration as well as many modern legal systems. Bruce Frier has argued in a landmark book that this development ("the rise of the Roman jurists") began in the last century of the republic, and that it was endorsed by Cicero. By examining how Cicero and the Attic orators discuss legal expertise and litigation, I seek to revise this standard picture in two ways. First, I argue that Athenians were not hostile to legal knowledge per se, but to expertise in litigation. I find, furthermore, that learning from the laws was part of the moral training of Athenian citizens. I then argue that Cicero's attitude towards legal expertise was not progressive, but reactionary. Litigation was a moral issue in the Roman republic no less than in democratic Athens. In Cicero's opinion, the true legal expert--whether an orator, a jurist, or a statesman--is a figure with the moral authority to resolve conflicts without debate. Cicero promulgates an ideology of law wherein litigation ideally would be unnecessary, and citizens' disputes would be resolved by their "natural" superiors.
