Myśli Heraklita – niedrukowane drobiazgi z przekładów Stefana Srebrnego (Heraclitus’ Thoughts: Unprinted Bits and Pieces of Stefan Srebrny’s Translations).
Appel, Włodzimierz
Heraclitus of Ephesus
γνῶμαι
unpublished Polish translation
Stefan Srebrny
The author publishes several ‘thoughts’ by Heraclitus translated by Prof. S. Srebrny (1890–1962), so far unprinted, and compares them with three other and most recent translations of the philosopher’s aphorisms. It turns out that the value of S. Srebrny’s translation is unimpaired by time, and it remains to be regretted that not all of the Greek thinker’s surviving fragments had been translated into Polish by Srebrny’s hand.

Pierre Dalicourt i Sekret opóźniania starości (1668). Zarys lektury w kontekście translatio studii [Pierre Dalicourt and Le secret de retarder la vieillesse (1668). Prolegomena to the lecture in the context of translatio studii]

In this article, an attempt is made to describe the way of ancient text elements in Frenchlanguage medical writing, prior to the publication of Dalicourt’s work. It enables to reconstruct three channels of antique medical knowledge transfer: physiological thought reflection (whose important documents in France are: the treatise On old age by Pierre du Lauriers and the textbook of surgery by Ambroise Paré), philosophical thought (Christian Neostoicism inspired by works of Seneca, Erasmus and Lipsius) and theology (which combines Judeo-Christian motifs with Greek-Roman ones through the Bible exegesis). Further, at the end of the work, a political dimension of Dalicourt’s discussion is signalled. The author, who dedicates his text to the chancellor Pierre Séguier, makes in a way reference to the antique discussions on gerontocracy.

The purpose of this paper is to present and evaluate the studies in Plato’s Cratylus performed by Witold Stefański, which resulted in several articles concerning this dialogue and its translation into Polish. While the interpretation of this dialogue offered by the author may be called into question, the dialogue’s translation remains undoubtedly an excellent piece of work.

The Aporetic Method in Plotinus’ Enneads
Stróżyński, Mateusz
Plotinus
spiritual exercise
aporia
There seem to be two tendencies in the Plotinian scholarship concerning spiritual method of the Enneads. First is more general and the other more specific and focused on the analysis of the text. The paper follows the second type of study and attempts to present and analyze Plotinian use of aporia as a spiritual exercise. Traditionally aporia was used as a point of departure for philosophical discussion (e.g. by Aristotle) and sometimes Plotinus follows this tradition. But at other times he uses aporia as a point of arrival – he creates a painful tension due to the fact that discursive thought is unable to know the nature of the One (or, less frequently, also Intellect). The tension becomes a sort of spiritual labor in which the contemplation is born and the tension is released. Several passages from the Enneads are analyzed to show various uses of that method.

Sposoby czytania rzymskich portretów starców z okresu republiki (How to Read Roman Republican Portraits of the Old Men)
Bugaj, Ewa
ancient art
ancient portraiture
Roman Republican portraiture
veristic portraiture
Roman funerary reliefs and monuments
Roman portraits in a public and private context
political uses of images in Rome
The portrait sculpture from the Republican era, better recognisable since the second century BC, although gaining in popularity particularly in the first century, constitutes one of the most unique portrait collections ever created. Variability of the portraits reveals combination of abstract features, expressed in an appropriate visual language, with definite physiognomic features and characteristics of persons being portrayed. A new type of portraiture was created at the time, different from the traditional Hellenistic one. Although it was the latter that was a source of the idea itself, and a provider of formal tools used to implement the idea. With this new concept the portraiture obtained an unprecedented capacity to articulate and project the interior processes of human experience. The Roman concept of portraying was most distinctive in so called veristic portraits, usually assumed to represent the essence of what was socially Roman. The collection consists mainly of the portraits of old men, frequently bold and toothless, with wry faces, full of wrinkles and scars – depicted in a stern manner, the manner that was not limited only to a persistent portraying of irregularities in physiognomies. Also emotional states were shown – almost with no exception these emaciated faces were gloomy and graceless. Looking at them might mislead viewers into assumption that they represented uncompromising images of their models. However, according to some studies, they were often just conventional types of representations, with features resulting from ideological motivation. And manipulating particular elements of physiognomy and character, these portrayed people – public images – were supposed to carry a particular message, to play desired and expected political and propaganda roles. What the role was remains a disputable issue, depending on various interpreting approaches. The papers dealing with the history of ancient art have been revealing, for the several years, various attempts made to extend interpretative interest beyond formal and stylistic interpretations of antique pieces of art and to look at these visual representations in a wider cultural and political context of their times. The study of the Republican portrait – traditionally explaining the origin of so called verism of these images in terms of the influence of the preceding realistic Hellenistic or Egyptian portraiture and images of ancestors – has been replaced by the approach promoting interpretation of these portraits as the signs existing in particular historical and political context which helps to explain their special visual expression. Such new interpretative perspectives significantly improved our understanding of forms and meanings of the portraits, although there are still several unclear issues, such as the social functioning of art. What is more, various researchers represent significantly different approaches. Thus, the portraits of the old men, especially popular towards the end of the republican era, on the one hand were interpreted as signs of protest against the contemporary reality, with which they argued, not allowing for what was approaching. While emphasising their age, the portrayed persons were supposed to emphasise their long-lasting service for the Republic, as well as the values they were devoted to, which were virtues, such as gravitas, dignitas, fides. On the other hand, these Republican portraits of old men are sometimes interpreted as efficient medium of social and cultural activities, and more precisely, as a result of relationships with authorities, and even as a tool used to build these relationships, especially if there was a patronage system functioning. In my paper, I confront various attitudes towards the portraits of old men and present the most convincing, in my opinion, interpretations, also trying to extend them.

Starzec i grzeczność językowa w komediach Plauta (Old man and linguistic politeness in comedies of Plautus)
Berger, Łukasz
old men
politeness theory
Roman comedy
greetings
advisory discourse
The aim of the article is to study the conversational behaviour of the Plautine old men in light of the politeness theory. The analysis concerns those scenes of salutatio and giving advice, where one of the speaker is senex, in order to examine features of his linguistic characterization.Según se desprende de la lectura de las obras plautinas, la caracterización de la figura del senex en las comedias de Plauto se centra en destacar su dignidad personal y pública como paterfamilias, un miembro de la élite económica y política. En este artículo hemos igualado la dignitas de los ancianos –que se revela en cada interacción verbal– con el concepto de la imagen social proveniente de la teoría de la cortesía lingüística. A continuación, hemos analizado dos tipos de comportamiento lingüístico (el saludo y las secuencias de aconsejar), donde el senex interactúa con personajes de diferente estatus social. En cuanto a las escenas de saludo realizadas por y hacia los ancianos, se percibe un alto grado de ritualización de la apertura dialógica, tanto más evidente entre dos senes. Las secuencias en las que se dan consejos a un noble paterfamilias también necesitan de varias estrategias de cortesía lingüística para no dañar su imagen social, puesto que este tipo de interacción verbal conlleva una asimetría de poder entre los hablantes. En una breve revisión de dichas escenas, hemos indicado los recursos utilizados tanto para afirmar la imagen del interlocutor (cortesía positiva), como para expresar respeto y reverencia hacia él (cortesía negativa). En consecuencia, la cortesía lingüística, como fenómeno conversacional, nos parece un importante recurso de la caracterización de los personajes plautinos no a nivel estilístico, sino a nivel de la interacción dialógica.

Pocieszenie dla Liwii po śmierci syna Druzusa (przekład Consolatio ad Liviam) („Consolatio ad Liviam” – a Polish translation)
Sheasby, Aleksandra
Consolatio ad Liviam
consolation
epicedion
epicedium
Nero Claudius Drusus
Livia Drusilla
Pseudo-Ovidius
Consolatio ad Liviam is a poem written in elegiac couplets at the beginning of 1st century AD by an anonymous author. Although the text used to be attributed to Ovid until as late as 16th century, its artistic level, historical context and meta- as well as intertextual hints almost certainly disprove his authorship. While not exceptionally remarkable as a piece of literature, the Consolatio seems to be of a certain interest from the historical point of view and to bring a valuable image of the Augustus’ entourage as well as funeral rites. It is also a noteworthy example of a combination between two literary traditions, namely those of consolatio and epicedion. Therefore, a first Polish translation should be useful for philologists and, more significantly, historians, who not always have obtained the knowledge of Latin sufficient to read ancient poetry. A pseudo-isometrical translation has been chosen, in order to compromise the Roman colouring with the metrical requirements of the Polish language.

Marek Fabiusz Kwintylian, Institutio oratoria, Księga XI 3, 30–184 [Marcus Fabius Quintilianus, Institutio oratoria, book XI 3, 30–184 (Introduction and translation)]
Śnieżewski, Stanisław
rules of word art
pronuntiatio
voice
gesticulation
characters of a drama
praise of character
charm of style
laudatory speeches
funeral speeches
Quintilian begins the 30th chapter of the 11th Book claiming the rules of oratory declamation are identical with the rules of word art. Pronuntiatio will be more clear if, above all, words will be spoken whole and not swallowed or omitted. According to Quintilian, well-chosen pronuntiatio is adjusted to the topic of the speech. For the most part it is driven solely by emotions and the orator’s voice rises and resounds. Voice, which is a kind of mediator between us and our audience, will reach the judges in the same shape it leaves us. Next the author of Institutio oratoria devotes a large passage to gesticulation as it complements voice and is obedient to the commands of mind. In plays written for performance on the stage the masters of oratory declamation find inspiration for expressing emotions also from the characters of a drama. This is why in tragedy Merope is sad, Medea is terrifying, Ajax is benumbed and Hercules is aggressive. In laudatory speeches, with the exception of funeral ones, the words should be flowery, magnificent and exalted in order to express thanks, encouragement etc. The funeral speeches, consolations and most of defensive court speeches are characterized by pain and humility. When we speak in senate we need to be authoritative, when in front of the people – dignified, when in private affairs – moderate. Pronuntiatio should have three qualities: it should cause good will, convince and affect, as this is how delight can be naturally evoked. Favour of the audience can be won either by praise of character, which is mysteriously revealed in the voice and gesticulation of an orator, or by the charm of style. Quintilian ends Book 11th with a remark that moderation plays the most important role. His aim is to form an orator, not a comedian. This is why he does not recommend to search for all the subtleties of gesticulation, nor to use classifications, rhythms or emotional states in the way of speaking. He is right when he criticises pronouncing words with exaggerated face expressions, distracting gesticulation and abrupt changes of tone. An orator should control his speech, aiming to achieve elegance and style and yet not to lose the authority of a noble and dignified man.

Sacrae litterae. Anagramatyczne wariacje na temat Virginis – Deiparae w Oraculum Parthenium Józefa Stanisława Bieżanowskiego (1668) [Sacrae litterae. Anagrammatic variations on Virginis Deiparae in Oraculum Parthenium by Joseph Stanislaw Bieżanowski
Zaborowska-Musiał, Justyna
anagram
epigram
the Angelic Salutation
the Virgin Mother of God
Bieżanowski
Agnese
Joseph Stanislaw Bieżanowski, a professor at the University of Krakow, a eulogist and poet, in the collection entitled Oraculum Parthenium (Krakow 1668) used a hundred of simple anagrams of Giovanni Battista Agnese published in Rome in 1661. These short (one-sentence) phrases, formed from the letters of the first part of the Angelic Salutation (Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus Tecum), accentuated on Mary’s immaculate purity and freedom from the stain of the original sin on the one hand and her divine motherhood on the other, thus increasing the role and the importance of Mary in God’s plan of salvation. Bieżanowski used these anagrams, making each of them a motto elaborated on in his epigrammatic comment. Epigrams of the Krakow lecturer are characterized not so much by the deepening of the religious reflection, as attention to the formal aspects, the pursuit of artistry. This is reflected in the application, many times within one work, of rhetorical figures highly valued in the Baroque (antitheses, oxymorons), the chiastic structure and interspersing the punch line of the epigram with the anagram from the motto (sometimes in a modified form). Anagram not only served as an additional rhetorical decoration, highlighting the main idea of a work, but also provided a bridge integrating the entire composition. Bieżanowski enclosed the anagrammatic-and-epigrammatic praise of the Virgin Mother of God by an interesting theory of the genre outlined in the preface to Pope Clement IX, whom the University of Cracow gave the collection while making efforts to proceed with the beatification of John Cantius. It combines the literary and theological reflection and in this way exalts the genre, contrary to the opinions of some seventeenth-century theorists. Bieżanowski’s original approach is also evident in the change in the system of anagrams proposed originally by Agnese. In this new system Oraculum Parthenium could perform several functions: educationional, propagandistic and polemical. Above all, however, it was a poetic prayer, complementing the official Marian liturgy.

‘You too, my child?’ On trust and perfidy in classical literature.
Schade, Gerson
Shakespeare
Hamlet
Julius Caesar
Alcibiades
Clytemnestra
Phaedra
Iason
Medea
πίστις
fides
Eduard Fraenkel
Émile Benveniste
A tripartite approach is proposed in order to get hold of the complex phenomenon of trust and perfidy in classical literature. In a first part two cases of political treason are discussed: the most prominent victim of treason, Julius Caesar, who was very much surprised when he saw Brutus among his assassins, and the greatest traitor in antiquity ever, Alcibiades. Protean perfidy, however, is a gender-crossing issue, and a second part is dedicated to literary figures, in particular to women. Aeschylus’ Clytemnestra is an outstanding example of a perfidious character. Finally, a third part is concerned with words, for πίστις and fides have attracted the attention of classical scholars and structural linguists alike. At the beginning, however, Hamlet is introduced, an expert both in trust and perfidy as well as in classical literature.

Najważniejsze funkcje i gatunkowe wyznaczniki anegdoty w biografii antycznej (The most important functions and genre indicators of anectode in ancient biography)
Chudzik, Przemysław
anecdote
ancient biography
rhetoric
progymnasmata
historiography
The ancient biographical literature is full of anecdotes. Though anecdote as literary form was readily applied in antiquity, it was not distinguished and didn’t have its own name. The term ‘anecdote’ appeared in the 17th century but it hasn’t been described insightfully so far. We have a few modern definitions but they are unsatisfactory. In the beginning of this article author presents shortly the origin of the term ‘anecdote’, showing similarities and differences between Procopios’ Secret History (<Ane/kdota) and earlier biographical anecdotes. The next step is rejection of modern definition of anecdote by Arnaldo Momiglianoas too narrow and normative. Author focuses on description of anecdote and shows its fundamental functions examining ancient biographies. He claims that anecdotes can argue, characterize, explain, entertain and supplement.Can be also a digression. In that point it is possible to do a preliminary distinction of the anecdote as literary form and to show its characteristic features: irremovability, similarity (and differences) to diegema (dih/ghma) and chreia (xrei/a), and credibility. In conclusion there is a short survey of ancient biographies from a point of view of presence of anecdote, an attempt of definition of anecdote included as well.

Ichthyonymia Graeco-Latina. Die Bedeutung der Lexik neugriechischer und romanischer Dialekte für die richtige Identifizierung lateinischer Fischnamen

Ichthyonymia Graeco-Latina. The Importance of the Modern Greek and Romance Lexical Data for Correct Identification of the Latin Fish-NamesIn his edition of Halieutica A. W. Mikołajczak leaves eight Latin names of the Mediterranean fishes, mentioned by Ovid, with no identification and explanation. The present author discusses them, taking into account the lexical data attested in the Modern Greek dialects, as well as the Italian ones. Four fish-names (cantharus, erythinus, iulis, smaris) may be securely identified on the basis of the modern (Greek and/or Romance) terminology for fishes of the Mediterranean Sea. No reflexes of four different fishes (cercyros, glaucus, lamiros, tragus) appear in the contemporary vocabulary of peoples of the Mediterranean area. This is why these Ovid’s fishes are hardly identifiable. M. Kokoszko’s book appears to be a valuable dictionary of the Greek fish-names, introducing an excellent presentation and convincing identification of most Mediterranean Sea fishes. His presentation agrees completely with the conclusions given in this paper.

Kilka uwag na temat polskiej edycji Seksualizmów łacińskich Jamesa N. Adamsa (A few observations on the Polish edition of The Latin Sexual Vocabulary by James N. Adams)
Loch, Marcin
the Latin sexual vocabulary
Latin obscenities
Roman sexuality
Martial
Pompeian inscriptions
Last year, Homini Publishing House published a Polish edition of The Latin Sexual Vocabulary by J.N. Adams. The translation was made by J. Janik. In comparison with the original English version, the Polish edition has been enriched with translations of its Latin quotations. In this paper, I will carry out a critical review of the Polish edition of the book.Hoc superiore anno in lucem prodiit Polona editio libri The Latin Sexual Vocabulary a I.N. Adams conscripti, quem Polonice reddendum curavit Ioanna Janik. Opus illud, quamvis valde desideratum et propter thema susceptum vera laude dignum, haud exiguo lapsuum numero, qui in Polona interpretatione exemplorum Latinorum occurrunt, admirationem affert singularem. Poloni editores tacito quoque praetermisisse videntur libri censuras, quae primam eius editionem Anglicam sequerentur, ubi iuste quidem operis vitia enumerarentur. Nihil ergo correctum, nihil ex enumeratis vitiis in illa recentissima editione adnotatum est (praeter corrigendorum et adnotandorum indicem in ultimis pagellis versionis propriae positum). Nonnullis ergo mirum fortasse appareat librum quendam vitiosum ad scientiarum disciplinas investigandas spectantem nunc triginta dilapsis annis ab eius prima editione in vernaculas linguas interpretari, cum certe illius temporis spatio scientiarum status multo progressus sit. Nullum tamen opus aliud vocabulis Venereis Romanorum adhuc dicatum est, quam ob rem duo restant faciunda: aut liber diligentissime recensendus, aut materies ipsa denuo investiganda et novo libro tractanda. Quod nisi fiat, sperandum est proximam libri editionem correctiorem fore, hac praesenti autem philologorum animos ad oriundam disputationem de Latinis vocabulis eroticis admoveri.

The Role of the Old Interlocutors in Plato's Dialogue. A New Philosophical Meaning of Old Age
Candiotto, Laura
Plato
old age
Parmenides
Laws
Plato’s political philosophy
paideia
This paper highlights the platonic conception of old age as very different from the traditional one. In order to demostrate it, the Parmenides and the Laws will be analyzed as key texts to understand the new philosophical meaning of old age that finds his main characterization in connection with young age. The topic of old age will be discussed along with youth training and the birth of the philosopher as a “result” of a proper philosophical education. At length, well-educated youths will be able to become philosophers who, in turn, will evolve into masters of others.

Time and Age as Protagonists in Sophocles’ Oedipus Coloneus
Schade, Gerson
Time
Age
Classical Tragedy
Oedipus
King Lear
Macbeth
Sophocles’ second Oedipus-play clearly relates to the first; it holds, however, a particular place in literary history, for it was the last play to be included into the canon of classical Attic tragedy. Moreover, the play shows another peculiarity: though the idea that death can be preferable to life is familiar to all Sophoclean protagonists, Oedipus was the only one allowed to get old, a process depicted quite realistically by old Sophocles. Oedipus’ self-explanation, however, that he suffered himself more than he really acted, resembles much a Catch-22 situation: if that were the case in those days, as Oedipus says that it was, he then was crazy and didn’t have to do what he did; but if he didn’t want to do what he did then, he was sane and had to do it, because the gods wanted him to do it. The proposed new reading of the play shows how time and age work on Oedipus’ frame of mind: a desire for whitewashing is acted out in a blame-game, awareness of what is to come is coupled with rather a hesitant manner as though he is slightly unsure of himself (what he is not), and eventually, being out of touch with time and fearing to be left alone make Oedipus curse, for he had been treated unjustly: Oedipus comes close to Shakespeare’s King Lear, though he does not go mad, he only becomes bad and dangerous to know.

Platońska wizja starości. Przedstawienie osób w podeszłym wieku w Politei i Prawach Platona. (The Platonic vision of the old age. The depiction of the people of advanced age in the Plato’s Republic and Laws)
Głodowska, Anna
old age
Cephalus
three old men
the Dionysiac choir
educational role
lawgivers
respect
intellectual and ethical elite
mental limitation
physical suffering
Plato who is an excellent expert of the human nature, makes the subject of his interest the old age and the life of the people of advanced age as well. The reflection on the fate of the old people is not the main subject of deliberation in the Plato’s dialogues but appears mainly in the context of the social and political conception of the ideal state. The issues connected with the life and function of the old people in social structures are the subject of the discussion e.g. in the Laws. Plato presents not only his theoretical deliberation about the old age but also makes the old men the interlocutors in his dialogues to depict the portrait of the members of the oldest social group and to portrait their attitude to life and the passing of time. Cephalus who resigned himself to his fate in the Republic, three old men who make an effort to enact the just code of laws in the Platonic Laws, or old Socrates, who in the Crito and Phaedo waits for the death penalty, faithful to his ideals to the end of his days. These are only a few examples of the elderly people, presented by philosopher, who become embedded in the memory of the readers of the Platonic dialogues. The aim of this article is to provide the answers to the questions, how is the old age perceived by Plato and what social role the elderly people fulfill in his idealisticconception of the state. I will also consider the way in which Plato portrayed the old people who were the main characters in the Republic and Laws.

Dobra starość zamożnej kobiety w okresie republiki (A good old age of a wealthy woman in the Roman Republic)
Dziuba, Agnieszka
old women
nobilitas
Weturia
Terentia
Cornelia
Caerelia
historiography
Livius
Cicero
The authors of antique literary texts referring to the Roman Republic gave their attention to women inconsiderably. They were convinced, that woman’ space , according to the ancestors’rules, was a house (domus Romana). Despite of this opinion there are some references to old women in antique testimonia, both Greek and Latin. We can find there few mentions about Veturia, mother of Coriolanus, Cornelia, mother of Cracchi, Terentia, the wife of Marcus Tullius Cicero and Caerellia, the friend of orator. These information allow us to draw an optimistic conclusion regarding to the old woman’ status in Republican Rome. Indeed, we should declare that all of them were born in the upper class (nobilitas) and their familie were wealthy. These four women live during their old age independently, without the care of their male relatives. Probably all of them were widows. Veturia and Cornelia lost sons involved in politics of Rome. Terentia supplied her son Marcus in money. Although their Male relatives were in serious troubles, women did not bear any consequences because of it. They still were living in their splendid house, run rich estate and spent leisure hours Reading books from private libraries and meeting friends.They were persons of good reputation. Most important of all, Veturia’s behaviour and Cornelia’s way of life led to build a parenetic legend about these antique heroins.

Old Women: Divination and Magic or anus in Roman Literature
Migdał, Justyna
Anus
old woman
witch
magic
prophetess
divination
Horace
Ovid
Petronius
Apuleius
Word anus was used in a primarily negative sense to describe an old woman. Anus is usually presented as a libidinous and hideous hag who indulges in strong wine or practices black magic, mainly for erotic purposes. Though Latin literature brings as well examples of a different type of anus: goddesses assuming the shape of old women to guide or deceive the mortals and old prophetic women, inspired by the gods. Anus can be gifted with divine powers and secret knowledge. The paper traces the motif of anus as a witch or a divine woman on the basis of selected examples from the works of Horace, Ovid, Petronius, Apuleius and Silius Italicus.

Postać ojca w rzymskiej deklamcji na przykładzie deklamacji V, VI I XVII ze zbioru Declamationes maiores Pseudo-Kwintyliana (The Figure of a Father in Three Declamations (V, VI, XVII) from the Collection of Pseudo-Quintilian's Greater Declamations).
Nowak, Magdalena
Roman rhetoric
declamation
controversiae
Pseudo-Quintilianus
Declamationes maiores
Fathers are important characters in the three controversies (declamations in form of fictional court speeches) analysed this article: in V declamation the father speaks against the son, demands from him financial support in poverty and old age (in one part of the declamation he even begs for his help); in VI declamation the speaker is also the father who is litigating with his wife about their deceased son’s right to be buried (the wife does not give her consent to the funeral because, according to her, the son had left her to rescue his father from pirates’ captivity); however, in XVII declamation the one who speaks is the son who is defending himself against his father’s accusations of him trying to commit patricide. The fathers presented in those declamations are characterized by some traits of personality resulting from the plot of each declamation, and are lead by certain motives of behaviour, which are love, kindness, respect, sympathy towards family members or reluctance or even hatred towards them. Simultaneously, in each of these pieces, the portraits of those fathers, emphasise dominating legal and economic position of fathers in families, their influence on upbringing and educating the children and on the family’s everyday life. This way of constructing the figure of the father in declamations resulted from the fact that those speaking exercises were performed by young Romans, who were to play the role of fathers (patres familias) in their future families. Working on the attitudes of the fathers in extreme and overstressed situations, young declaimers practiced making and justifying decisions regarding family members, public speaking in the role of fathers. What is also not out of the question is that the possibility of playing out the role of fathers or the possibility of publicly speaking against fathers (in both cases fathers could be presented in negative light) were a kind of safety valves allowing young Romans to give vent to frustrations evolving from their big dependence on the authority of fathers in real life.

Famae petitor. Lucan’s Portrayal of Pompey.
Pypłacz, Joanna
Pompey
Lucan
irony
comic
epic
Roman Republic
decay
caricature
hero
In spite of the fact that Lucan’s sympathies are apparently with the Republicans, his attitude to Pompey, which emerges from the Pharsalia, turns out to be rather critical. Moreover, this criticism actually comes very close to ridicule. Lucan depicts Pompey as a senile and narcissistic leader who dwells on his past success and lives in the world of his own fantasies. Trapped in the vicious circle of his delusions of grandeur, he is rather grotesque than majestic. The harder he tries to enhance his public image, the more pathetic he becomes both in the eyes of his friends and in those of his enemies. The effects of his efforts are, therefore, quite contrary to their purpose. On the one hand, the figure of the senile and deluded Pompey is the caricature of the decaying Roman Republic, whose degeneracy it obviously mirrors. On the other hand, however, Lucan’s grotesque anti-hero is the exact opposite of archetypal epic characters such as Virgil’s Aeneas. Willing yet unable to emulate his literary predecessors, he functions as the caricature of the literary paradigm of a standard epic hero.

Old Age before the Court: Monnica and Socrates in Book Nine of Augustine’s Confessions.
Stróżyński, Mateusz
old age
Augustine
Saint Monnica
Socrates
ancient ethics
Even though the character of Augustine’s mother, Monnica, has been studied from different angles, the students of the Confessions have not paid much attention to a curious image of her standing before the tribunal of God, which appears in Augustine’s prayer after her death. This short scene, which could be called the “trial of Monnica” is a carefully created passage, in which Augustine juxtaposes Pagan and Christian ethical ideas, probably alluding to Socrates’ trial and confronting the Christian attitude of his mother to that of the greatest of ancient sages. Augustine argues that Monnica should not respond to the Devil’s accusations and should not try to defend herself, because that would make her salvation impossible. On the contrary, abandoning of defense and loving trust in God’s mercy can save her soul from eternal damnation. This attitude is contrary to the proud self-defense of Socrates, who emphasized his innocence and moral perfection. Augustine’s image of Monnica before the court of God is an expression of his idea of original sin and of human inability to achieve virtue without God’s grace, which is a significant break with the Pagan ethical tradition. The end of Book Nine is also an intriguing combination of such elements as the traditional idea of old age as the time of assessing one’s life, Roman rhetorical and judicial tradition, and integration of Biblical and philosophical truths into an original, influential Augustinian synthesis.

Quemlibet dehortari ne … senectutis vicia desideret. Maximianus’s Elegy on Old Age and a Few Examples of Its Medieval Reception.
Wasyl, Anna Maria
Maximianus
old age in Latin literature
Eugenius of Toledo
Columbanus of Bobbio
Imitatio Maximiani
Maximianus’s echoes in Middle English literature (Le Regret de Maximian
Geoffrey Chaucer’s Pardoner’s Tale)
ms BJ 1954 & BJ 2141
Biblioteka J
The present paper is devoted to Maximianus, and in particular to the motif of mala senectutis as developed by this late antique (6th cent. A.D.) Latin elegiac poet. After discussing some particularly informative passages, I focus on Maximianus’s interpretations and reinterpretations by Columbanus (543 – 615), Eugenius of Toledo († 657), and the anonymous author of the ninth century Imitatio Maximiani. I also point out his presence in vernacular medieval literature, namely English. Last but not least, I demonstrate how Maximianus’s image of an old man praying to Mother Earth inspired one of medieval scribes copying his text (in ms BJ 2141).

An Unwelcome Aspect of Life: the depiction of Old Age in Greek Vase Painting.
Gorzelany, Dorota
Greek vase painting
red figure style
black figure style
iconography
Greek society
old man
old woman
mythology
Greek literature
classical Greece
The subject of old age is rarely addressed in Greek vase painting and usually appears in scenes from mythology or daily life. Older men in these representations are Homeric heroes, esteemed as kings, leaders and sages who have rendered great services to society; older people are also present in scenes of everyday life – usually as fathers or child supervisors. depending on the technique of decoration, these figures were characterised mostly through hair colour (as well as thinning hair and baldness in the case of men), a stooped and frail frame or an obese one. Besides, on red-figure and white-ground vessels it was possible to render facial wrinkles. These features apply predominantly to the images of men, because due to the social ideal of kalokagathia Athenian women were usually depicted as timelessly young. The article contains an analysis of selected depictions of the elderly in vase painting in terms of their iconography and the types of scenes in which they appear, including references to the written sources.

The text is focused on the ancient literary images of the Cumaean Sibil, one of the most known and mysterious figures of the Roman mythology. Described by Vergil and Ovid in their monumental epic poems, mentioned also by other Roman writers (like Aulus Gellius, Petronius, Silius Italicus) Sibil from Cumae became a symbol of longevity of Rome and of the Roman culture and a guarantee of its successful existence. According to the mythological tradition, Sybil’s appearance was changing during her thousand-year-long life from a resplendent beauty, who was desired by Apollo, to a flabby old woman, dreaming about her own death. In this context the Roman prophetess could be interpreted as a personification of the passing human nature, ruled by the cycle of the returning eras (the Gold Era, the Silver Era, the Bronze Era and the Iron Era). The tragedy of Sybil, who was mortal, but could not die, trapped in her weak human body, firstly inspired Roman poets. Later their poems became an inspiration for many painters (for example Salvator Rosa, Guercino, Domenichino, Jan Breughel the Elder, William Turner) who recreated the Cumaean prophetess, giving her a new silent life in the art galleries all over Europe. Their masterpieces correspond with the ancient tradition underlining her agelessness.

The contracted forms in the Present Indicative Middle and Passive of Athematic Verbs in Poetry of Ancient Greece of Archaic and Classical Period
Frąckiewicz, Katarzyna
-hi ending
-ai ending
athematic verbs
Greek poetry
The aim of the paper is an attempt at analysing the contracted forms of the second-person singular of athematic verbs in Greek poetry. Verbs such as dÚnamai and ™p…stamai have forms with -sai and -hi, -ai in the present indicative middle and passive. Contemporary scholars express different views on where the contracted forms appear. The paper presents the opinions of ancient grammarians and modern linguists on the mentioned subject. The critical analysis of these opinions has been contrasted with the forms present in the poetry of archaic and classical period.

Las denominaciones de la mujer anciana en la lengua latina: interpretación etnolingüística
Pascual Lopez, Xavier
old age
old woman
gender
Latin language
Ethnolinguistics
Ethnolinguistic approach allows to track cultural information included in language, especially lexical and phraseological units. From this perspective, the language tells us about the particular way a linguistic-cultural community perceives reality. Society attributes to women a number of features, qualities, defects and social functions. These traits shape a cultural image of women, and this biased picture is functional in social relationships and it is reflected on the terms a language uses to refer to women. The purpose of this paper is to describe the perception of old women in Roman society by means of the associations and connotations carried by Latin terms anus, anicula and vetula.

Obraz bogiń w wersach II 15–54 De raptu Proserpinae Klaudiana (The Portrayal of the Goddesses in Verses II 15–54 of Claudian’s De raptu Proserpinae)
Petry, Martyna
De raptu Proserpinae

dresses
ekphrasis
court
Claudian
Claudian’s mythological poem De raptu Proserpinae is almost wholly composed of loosely linked episodes. The disputed verses from his epic, are one of the luxuriant descriptive episodes (ekphrasis) and portray four goddesses tending to the meadow of the Mount Etna. In this paper I’ll try to indicate, that their looks and the symbols depicted on their garments resemble the popular fashion of the contemporary aristocracy and remind of the works of art and motifs characteristic and prevailing in fourth century C.E. Beyond that, not to be overlooked, Claudian simultaneously emulates the divine images that mainly appear in Homer’s and Vergil’s epics as well.

history of cosmetics
The process of ageing is accompanied by changes in the structure and appearance of the skin and its appendages. The article examines descriptions of people advanced in age to be found in the works of Roman authors from the period of the Principate, e.g. Horace, Ovid, Martial, Juvenal. Using input from this written recordthe author presents a brief overview of attributes of old age associated with appearance. Next, a closer look is taken at informations afforded by Ovid, Pliny the Elder, Celsus and Dioscurides on cosmetics and cosmetic treatments used during Classical Antiquity to delay the process of skin ageing and conceal the wastages caused by ageing.

Old Man’s Speech and Music. Sir 32:3 Interpreted by Clement of Alexandria and John Chrysostom

The article tries to answer the question why Clement of Alexandria (Paed. II 58, 1–2) and John Chrysostom (De Eleazaro et septem pueris, PG, vol. 63, coll. 523–4) propose peculiar interpretations of Sir 32:3. At first sight it might seem that the writers used texts of that verse in the Septuagint that were different from its present shape, but the real causes of the discrepancies were, in Clement’s case, his abhorrence of music, and in John Chrysostom’s case, the situation in which his speech was delivered.

The following paper discusses the literary context of the anonymous ‘dialogue of the dead’ modelled on the Lucianic writings and preserved in the codex Ambrosianus gr. 655. This text proposes to see the text under discussion as an example of schedos, a school exercise. The article offers also the Polish translation of the dialogue.
An anonymous Lucianic cento, modelled on the Dialogues of the Dead, was handed down in the manuscript Ambrosianus gr. 655. This article argues that the text might have been compiled in the 12th century when Lucian and his text not only enjoyed a considerable popularity but Lucianic writings were imitated by authors such as Theodoros Prodromos. What is more, it is suggested that this text might have been written for didactic purposes, perhaps as a kind of schedos. This articles offers also the first Polish and the second modern translation of the dialogue.

Terence, Phormio v. 778–782 – A Commentary on the Passage
Terencjusz, „Phormio” v. 778–782 – komentarz do passusu
Pieczonka, Joanna
Terence
palliata
comedy Phormio
borrowing money
commentary
The passage from the Terentian comedy Phormio, v. 778–782, contains few interesting expressions, which are described in the article. First of all this short commentary examines the meaning of the Latin noun versura, attested in line no. 780. Versura is used in Phormio in a phrase vosuram solvere, which may mean to solve the loan agreement or to pay off the loan. Other phrases in the presented passage create a context for our analysed noun, especially: in eodem luto haesitas – you are getting stuck in the same mud. This proverbial expression emphasizes repetition of the situation and has probably the same iterative meaning as versuram solvere. Therefore we may assume, that versuram solvere means in the play: borrowing money on interest to pay a previous debt. The whole image of repeated problems is being summarized by the character of the play saying: plagae crescunt – the number of lashes increases. This expression is to show the gradation of the troublesand it proves, that also versura must include some kind of gradation, i. e. the growth of interest. The article shows phraseology, which is employed to depict slave’s action – proverbial and legal expressions are used to build a metaphor in the character’s utterance. This metaphor is built by all of the mentioned expressions in eodem luto haesitas, vorsuram solves, plagae crescunt. The first two expressions start the figure called climax and plagae crescunt summarizes this stylistic device. Moreover this whole image has been used by Terence to demonstrate the progress of the complex plot in the play – the slave has already carried on two intrigues and to avoid the consequences of his actions he might make the third fraud.

„When the stars are glittering with gold up in the sky…” Goldsmithery Metaphors in Descriptions of the Sky Phenomena in Roman Literature
„Kiedy gwiazdy się na niebie złocą…” Metaforyka jubilerska w rzymskich opisach nieba
Piętka, Radosław
astronomical literature
metaphor
jewellery
Metaphors and comparisons are typical features of the ancient texts describing celestial bodies, and they can be treated as a part of a broader cultural practice of seeking analogies between earth and sky phenomena, inspired by the microcosm/macrocosm theory. To explain such a practice we can refer to the modern theory of imagination as well, according to which appreciation of nature is based, among others, on the so-called “projective imagination”, transferring mentally the images from the terrestrial reality to the sky. One of the obvious instances of such an analogical thinking is “katasterismos”, mythic narration about the item placed in the heavens as a star or constellation. It appears that among the objects on the sky described as a result of “catasterism” we can find some specimens of jeweller’s craftsmanship (e.g. Ariadne’s Crown as Corona Borealis). This is, however, a specific situation; astronomical descriptions usually emphasize the brightness and perfection of the sky phenomena using above-mentioned poetic devices associated with jewellery. Most popular among them is the metaphoric epithet of “gold”, linked commonly with stars and the sun, but besides this, in the works of Roman authors can be detected more original imagery (e.g. the cosmos as a necklace). It is argued in the paper that this kind of astronomical descriptions can be interpreted against the backdrop of the history of the “visual metaphors of value”, as they were defined by Ernst Gombrich.

Religious and mystical aspects of power in Claudian’s court poems
Aspects religieux et charismatiques du pouvoir dans les poèmes officiels de Claudien
Władza w wymiarze religijnym i charyzmatycznym u poety Klaudiana
Zarini, Vincent
Claudius Claudianus
Late Latin poetry
Late Antiquity
Power and mystics
Poetry and politics
W epoce antycznej ogromną popularnością cieszyła się koncepcja boskości ziemskich władców. Zjawisko to obserwujemy począwszy od eposów Homera, poprzez monarchię hellenistyczną, aż po Augusta i później, u pogańskich lub chrześcijańskich następców Dioklecjana. Rzymski poeta Klaudian nimbem boskości otacza przede wszystkim cesarza Honoriusza oraz jego najbliższego współpracownika Stylichona. Podczas gdy temu ostatniemu przypisuje „bliskość bogów” (Stil. III 130) i „boskie” serce (6 C.H. 233), samego cesarza obdarza często przydomkiem sacer oraz plasuje go na równi z Jowiszem (C.H. praef. 23). Wynika z tego przekonanie Klaudiana o boskości imperatora lub przynajmniej o jego związkach z boskością. W twórczości rzymskiego poety przejawy boskości bohaterów podzielić możemy na czynne i bierne. Wśród biernych wyróżniamy: piękno fizyczne, działania przyrody w najważniejszych chwilach panowania, świetlny blask, jaki bije od rządzących, apoteozę związaną z przeobrażeniem się w gwiazdy.W ujęciu Klaudiana uroda rządzących staje się ich pierwszym atrybutem; koresponduje ona z zaletami charakteru i walorami ducha. Co zaś tyczy się współudziału przyrody w podniosłych chwilach rządów, reprezentuje ona niejako siły boskie. I tak na przykład, gdy Wenus udaje się do Mediolanu na zaślubiny Honoriusza z Marią, pod wpływem tchnienia Akwilonu niebo nad Alpami zupełnie się rozchmurza (ep. 184–188). Podobnie natura wyraża też swą radość z powodu małżeństwa Stylichona z Sereną (Stil. I 84–88). Jeśli chodzi o światłość, bije ona już od samego Rzymu (6 C.H. 410–412). Blask rządzących nim porównuje natomiast Klaudian z blaskiem bijącym od planet, gwiazd i, co rzadkie w czasach twórcy, z poświatą księżycową. Wpływom orientalnym zawdzięczamy natomiast przyrównywanie emanacji sprawujących władzę do światła słonecznego.Przejaw boskości władców stanowi wreszcie u Klaudiana katasterismós – przemiana w gwiazdy. Ten typ apoteozy, zapoczątkowany w Grecji okresu klasycznego, zdobył sporą popularność także wśród Rzymian. Już Cyceron w Śnie Scypiona (Rep. VI 13) obiecywał wszak wielkim tego świata nieśmiertelność „astralną”. Autor Porwania Prozerpiny poświęca natomiast sporo miejsca gwiezdnej przyszłości cesarza Teodozjusza Wielkiego. Boskość bohaterów Klaudiana definiują ponadto aspekty czynne: wyjątkowy wpływ na zwycięstwo w trakcie trwania działań militarnych oraz wszelkie cuda i przepowiednie w okresie pokoju.Co tyczy się pierwszego z atutów, wyraża się on na przykład poprzez zdolność władcy do podporządkowania sobie wroga za sprawą samego pojawienia się w danym miejscu. Tak dzieje się chociażby w momencie, kiedy Stylichon jednym tylko spojrzeniem obezwładnia plemiona reńskie (4 C.H. 444–449). Poza polem walki wyjątkową moc rządzących podkreślają cuda oraz przepowiednie; dzięki nim ludność może zorientować się, które z decyzji rządzących podobają się bogom, a które budzą ich sprzeciw. Obecność cudów i wróżb w poezji Klaudiana nie powinna dziwić, bowiem w IV wieku po Chrystusie wciąż jeszcze przywiązywano do nich wielką rolę.

The “epigrammatic” epic. Ekkehart’s IV “Versus ad Picturas” and the poetic tradition
Epika „epigramatyczna”. Ekkeharta Versus ad Picturas wobec tradycji poetyckiej
Smolak, Kurt
Ekkehart IV of St. Gaull
St. Gaull
Poeta doctus
Medieval Latin Poetry
11th Century Culture
Biblical Epic
Tituli
Mainz-Cathedral
Holy Languages
Archbishop Aribo
MS St. Gaull 393
As a consequence of the large variety of poetic genres dealing with biblical material in Christian-Latin literature of Late Antiquity, in the 11th century the two extremely opposite forms of poetic expression were artificially combined, namely continuous epic narration and epigrammatic conciseness of the so called tituli, that is to say metrical inscriptions which were meant to explain wall paintings or mosaics of selected biblical topics. By order of Aribo, archbishop of Mainz, Ekkehart IV of St. Gall composed an “epigrammatic epic”, which was to cover the wide range of the entire Bible from Genesis to Apocalypse, contemporary exegesis partly included. Aribo was supposed to select those “epigrammes” from this “biblical epic” which he needed for a new decoration of the cathedral – a project, however, which was never realised. Ekkehart’s highly manneristic poetic creation, preserved only in his autograph, MS 393 of St. Gall, remained unparalleled. Nevertheless, it is an important testimony of the experimental and innovative character of medieval Latin poetry in the period of transition from monastic literary production of the previous centuries to the golden age of medieval Latin classics, which originated in the cathedral schools, during the late 11th and the 12th centuries.

“No one touched the strings of the cither more becomingly”: The first eulogy of Mathias Casimirus Sarbievius
Nikt nie dotknął strun harfy z większym wdziękiem”: Pierwszy poemat pochwalny napisany do Macieja Kazimierza Sarbiewskiego
Hulsenboom, Paul
Gilbertus Joninus
Mathias Casimirus Sarbievius
Jesuit poetry
Plantin-Moretus
The first eulogy addressed to the Polish poet Mathias Casimirus Sarbievius, printed in two different versions in 1630 and 1632, was written by Gilbertus Joninus, a Frenchman whose oeuvre shows he had a remarkable interest in Poland, sparked perhaps by the odes of Sarbievius, while both Jesuits were staying in Rome. In his ode to the Pole, Joninus displays a thorough knowledge of the addressee’s works, as he sums up the themes Sarbievius wrote about the most, such as the military victories of Poland’s leaders, or “the weapons of the heavenly Cupid”. Interestingly, these themes return in Joninus’ own works as well, which may imply that the Frenchman indeed was inspired by Sarbievius, much like, as Joninus writes, Horace was inspired by Melpomene. At the end of the ode, therefore, it is perhaps not surprising to find that Joninus feels the Polish Jesuit had actually surpassed his ancient example, and that he was a “not unworthy descendant of Orpheus”. Joninus’ comparison of Sarbievius with Horace, as well as his use of Hor. Od. IV, 3, would later be copied by numerous authors. What little differences there are between the 1630 and the 1632 versions of Joninus’ work mostly have to do with diversifying the author’s vocabulary, or else serve to make more sense of a given passage. The largest divergence, however, not only makes the poem refer to Hor. Od. IV, 3 more clearly, but may also have genuine implications for our reading of the text. In the second edition, as opposed to the first, Sarbievius is compared to both Horace and Melpomene, and Joninus may furthermore be alluding to another aspect of Horace’s ode, saying that the Pole is either loved in Rome, or despised there. Two years after the poem’s first edition, Joninus seems to have had an even higher opinion of his Polish colleague, and he may have added an extra level of interpretation to his ode altogether.

Penelopa w poezji nowogreckiej XX wieku (Penelope in Modern Greek 20th century Poetry)
Bzinkowski, Michał
Modern Greek literature
Modern Greek poetry
reception of Antiquity
Penelope
Nikos Kazantzakis
Yiannis Ritsos
Katerina Anghelaki-Rooke
Kyriakos Charalambides
Pandelis Boukalas
In my paper I focus on the well-known Greek mythical as well as literary figure, known mainly from Homer’s Odyssey, Odysseus’ faithful wife, Penelope. Attention is given to the interpretation of the Homeric prototype in Modern Greek 20th century poetry. The successive metamorphoses of the image of Penelope are traced in Nikos Kazantzakis’ The Odyssey, Yiannis Ritsos’ Penelope’s Despair, Katerina Anghelaki-Rooke’s Says Penelope, Kyriakos Charalambides’ Penelope Recognizes Odysseus, Penelope’s Odysseusand Pandelis Boukalas’ Penelope. The analysis shows ambiguous attitude to the traditional image of Penelope and tendency of Modern Greek poets to demythologize her and to show the scene of anagnorisis in Homer‘s Odyssey in modern context as well as with more psychological probability.

„Latine loquor!” – czyli „żywa łacina” jako metoda dydaktyczna (Latine loquor! – Living Latin as a teaching method)
Loch, Marcin
living Latin
direct method
conversation in Latin teaching
spoken Latin
reform of Latin teaching
This article discusses the various problems one faces as a teacher of Latin in Poland. These problems are partly due to the permanently decreasing number of Latin lessons in schools. This decrease, however, has not been considered by those responsible for the core curriculum, which is now too extensive and does not match the amount of time provided for Latin classes. The lack of reform in the didactics of Latin also takes its toll (namely the continuous usage of the grammar-translation method). Direct methods, which include dr. Rouse’s method, Ørberg’s method and Assimil method (all discussed briefly in this article) could prove to be a useful solution to these problems.

On madness without words: gestures in Homer’s poems as a nonverbal means of depicting madness
Chruściak, Ilona
Homer
gestures
nonverbal behaviour
Andromache
suitors
maenad
Dionysus
laughter
The paper discusses various ways of depicting madness in Homer’s epics based on the example of a scene from the Iliad, in which Andromache is compared to a maenad, as well as the scene concerning the feast of suitors in book XX of the Odyssey. Depicting madness by means of gestures affects the reception of the described scenes by the external and internal epic audience in a very special way. The gestures that are described invoke in the listeners associations related to their own experiences and appeal to particular emotions, whose presence affects the reception of an epic. The gestures and the nonverbal message allude to the Bacchic trance and this raises the question whether Homer and his audience were familiar with the cult of Dionysus.

Wybrane aspekty mitu w Hymnie homeryckim do Hermesa (Homeric hymn to Hermes: selected aspects)
Jarczyk, Magdalena
the Homeric hymn to Hermes
invention of the lyre
music and paideia
the myth and the ritual
sacrifice
The paper discusses how the major plot elements of the Homeric Hymn to Hermes (inventing the lyre, stealing Apollo's cattle and especially slaughtering it) tie in together to instruct the (male) youth on their prospective roles as responsible, cultured family supporting adults, warriors and members in their community's cults. It thus highlights the educational and paedagogical aspects of the myths featured in the poem's narrative part.

Zeno’s dialectic
After a very general exegetical introduction, we put forward a new arrangement and translation of the major testimonies on Zeno of Elea. The few passages that are generally regarded as fragmenta verbatim are also cited in the original. The source material is presented in a reconstructive order that is somewhat different from the previous editions of Zeno. Our aim is to capture the specific problematic context of the ancient authors who refer and question Zeno’s arguments, without isolating and break up theses texts. The particular passages have been provided with thematic headings.

La visione di mania umana e divina in Platone (The concept of divine and human “mania” in the Platonic dialogues)
Głodowska, Anna
Platonic dialogues
poetic inspiration
philosophic love
prophecy
madness
In this article will be discussed the passages of the Platonic dialogues that give information about the way in which the philosopher understood the term “mania”. Particularly important is the reflection on this subject contained in Phaedrus in which different kinds of madness were distinguished and briefly characterized. Especially the essential is the concept of poetic inspiration because it takes an important place in Plato’s theoretical and literary thought. It had also a significant influence on shaping his opinions on the subject of poets and their work. The Plato’s term of poetic inspiration and connected with it the issues of literary output and its reception make the fundamental part of this article.

The article aims to examine the tragedies: Ήρακλής μαινόμενος by Euripides and Hercules Furens by Seneca and exactly the different types of the madness, by which the main character is overcome in the above mentioned dramas. Although the article touches also on the issue of the insanity sent to the hero by Hera/ Juno, concentrates especially on the fit of madness, that is here defined as a human madness.

Medea’s Inner Voice
Menzi̇lci̇oğlu, Çi̇ğdem
Seneca
passions
amor (love)
ira (anger
furor (madness / insanity)
inner conflict
The story of Medea provides a wide range of themes to be explored and passion emerges as a frequent one. This article is based on the text Medea by the Stoic Seneca, yet in some parts comparisons will be drawn with Euripides’ tragedy of the same name as well. They treat the same theme in remarkably different ways: In the Senecan tragedy, Medea’s long soliloquies or monologues differ from Euripides’ version in that they reveal the protagonist’s inner conflict between the voices of passions and reason. This tragedy particularly focuses on the passions amor (love), ira (anger), furor (madness, insanity) and the consequent self-division. Therefore it can be analyzed from both psychological and philosophical aspects.

Furiosa libido. Ovid on love and madness.
Bielecka, Elżbieta
madness
love
Ovid
women
Ars amatoria
This paper presents Ovid’s views on the concept of love madness. Taking Ars amatoria, in particular the distich (1.281–282) in which the poet blames woman’s love fury on her lust as its research material, the paper investigates how the notion in question has been realized in this “textbook for lovers.” There, Ovid uses the mythological figures of women who committed crimes against social rules to illustrate the said concept; the paper, in turn, juxtaposes it with the narratives in Metamorphoses (the stories of Byblis and Myrrha). Additionally, it makes use of the tale of Iphis, a story not included in Ars amatoria which can nevertheless be also treated as illustrative of how madness can overcome enamored women. The paper both contrasts the above mentioned stories with the narratives showing men’s inclinations to insanity caused by passion and examines the notion of love madness in the context and with regard to the style of Ovid’s works.

Siwicka Małgorzata, Peregrinos Lukiana z Samosat – szaleństwo w krzywym zwierciadle satyry (Peregrinus of Lucian of Samosata – madness in the distorting satire).
Siwicka, Małgorzata
the passing of Peregrinus
Cynic asceticism
madness
pathological desire for fame
suicide
theatrical behaviour
self-deception
histrionic and narcissistic personality disorders
The work The Passing of Peregrinus by Lucian of Samosata presents a picture of a pseudo-philosopher , who under the disguise of Cynic asceticism and courageous death, hid such an extraordinary desire for fame and publicity that it took on a pathological size. This morbid craving for popularity that he acquired by any possible means finally brought Peregrinus to suicidal death, although, in fact, he did not really want it. What Lucian did not approve of his conduct was falseness, cheap theatrical claptrap, using human simplicity and warm-heartedness. Lucian damasks in a brutal way the unbound craving for publicity from which all actins of Peregrinus stemmed. By removing a tragic mask from his face Lucian pinpoints his ridiculousness and ugliness. It was the pursuit of popularity that brought Peregrinus to destruction. His self-immolation, however, was not viewed upon by Lucian as an act of heroism, but merely as a grotesque and miserable ending of an equally grotesque and deplorable life.

Melancholia, choroba, szaleństwo – kompleks staropolskiego poety metafizycznego: idee, inspiracje, motywy, postawy (Melancholia, disease, madness – the complex of Old Polish metaphysical poet: ideas, inspirations, motifs, attitudes).

This article tends to analyse the problems concerning the reception of ancient theory of melancholia, especially in renaissance and early Baroque literary studies. The melancholia as disease, habit, fear, cognition, meditation, inspiration and sin, is also very inspiring idea, allowing to understand the essence of Old Polish metaphysical poetry, in particular the complex of metaphysical poet – his behaviour, reasons, inspirations and attitudes.

Maurice Halbwachs, social memory, and the Greek lyric poets
Schade, Gerson
Maurice Halbwachs
social memory
epinician poetry
Sappho & Alcaeus.
Literary texts may enable a much later reader to observe how collective memory interrelates with personalremembrance. This goes without saying for Jane Austen or George Eliot. What is new, however, is that passagesfrom epinician poetry by Simonides, Pindar, and Bacchylides may inform on the same process, i.e. theinvention of a society’s collective remembrance, or social memory. The argument is inspired by MauriceHalbwachs, according to whom a society’s cultural complexity is revealed by literature. Halbwachs readBalzac and Dickens, he often cited Stendhal and even Proust, but the practice of which he speaks obtained alsoin those groups in antiquity where Sappho and Alcaeus performed.

Didaskalia w Orestei Ajschylosa jako projekt inscenizacji tłumacza (na przykładzie Agamemnona)

We all know that in the ancient tragedies there are no written stage directions. But it does not mean that there areno stage instructions. Without no doubts the fifth century BC tragedies were theatre productions. Of course theywere influencedby the Athenian theater of the day, but in every age the drama is influenced by the theatre of itsdays. And translation of a drama requires to be imagined by the translator who is never free from any influencesor references to the stages and theatres of authors’ time. That is why in this paper I would like to examine whatkind of staging the translators suggest in their translations and stage directions they insert in the texts.

In Roman republican literature the Endymion figure, not unlike other mythical characters, carries a messagewhich becomes apparent only when properly deciphered. For that reason its meaning can be made out best bybeing looked at from a rhetorical perspective.

De genere dicendi deliberativo a latronibvs Apuleianis vsvrpato (Met. Vi, vi )

Apuleius
Metamorphoses

comic.
In books VI and VII of Apuleius’ Metamorphoses we find the robbers delivering some orations, which imitatethe genus deliberativum: they display sollemnity and refined elegance to such an extent, that the reader, beingaware that they proceed from the most heinous rogue’s lips, cannot but smile by himself.Composing this part of his tale, Apuleius also falls back on and re-treats some elements of the greek novel, inparticular the representation of the band of robbers like a sort of perverted state.In this article I will first show the resemblances that Apuleius’ rogue-tales share with the same places of theGreek novels’ writers, then I will continue to examine the speeches found in books VI and VII.I will demonstrate with how much elaboration Apuleius has amplified and augmented these tales, which theGreek novelists have merely outlined, for the sake of playing on extant literature, and I will clarify to whatextent we can understand this playing on literature as a parody.

In this paper I examine Dracontius’ poem De raptu Helenae to prove his unconventionality and originality inpresenting a well-known myth. He analyses the story of the judgement of Paris from the legal point of viewusing professional, legal vocabulary. At the same time he takes into account also the moral and Christian dilemmasand thereby he finds completely new aspects and interpretations, ignored by previous poets.

MARTWA DYDONA
Sapota, Tomasz
Latin literature
Virgil
Aeneid
Dido
The text is an analysis of the story of Dido as shown in Virgil’s Aeneid. The author presents pre-Virgiliansources of the history of the Phoenician queen, recounts the three principal versions of Dido’s biography andsets the Virgil’s narration against the opinions of ancient commentators (Servius, Macrobius) and other Romanwriters reminiscing about Dido’s ill-fated past. All the testimonies bring out the uncontestable claim that it wasVirgil who first wrote about the tragic love entanglement between Aeneas and Dido, a story which rapidly gainedpopularity upon the publication of the Aeneid. The article discusses Virgil’s subversive understanding ofgender and the conventional traits of national character (Roman and barbaric, as typified in Roman literature).

We illustrate this by means of three comparisons:between the symbolical space of bullrings and amphiteatres, between the glory of gladiators and torerosas well as its influence on the world art, and finally between the ancient and contemporary controversies thatled to a change or decline in both traditions.

body

The aim of this article is to present the ways in which Arnobius speaks of the body and its sexuality, in particularhis linguistic strategies employed to articulate sexual terms. It analyses those fragments of AdversusNationes where the Rhetorician of Sicca Veneria does not shy away from sexual terms describing various bodyparts, yet is far from being vulgar or literal. Arnobius’s apologia constitutes a rich source of lexical materialcovering human anatomy and obscene behaviours. It is also an example of how to observe the rules of aestheticsin Late Antique literature.

WINO W DIONYSIAKA NONNOSA W K SIĘGACH 1.1-12.138

wine
discovery of wine
Dionysiaka
Ampelos
In this article the author presents the references and allusions to wine in the 1.1 – 12.138 Dionysiaka of Nonnus.The analysis of the passages excerpted from the Dionysiaka shows that wine is present in Nonnos’ epos beforeits discovering in book 12. The presence of wine in the first 12 book of Dionysiaka has great significance forthe composition and unity of Nonnus’ poem as based on the principle of variety. The analysis of the passagesexcerpted from the Dionysiaka shows that references to wine present in Nonnos’ epos precede the story of itsdiscovery in book 12. The occurence of references and allusions to wine in the first 12 books of Dionysiakahas an important significance for the composition and unity of Nonnus’ poem based on the principle of variety.

SOME OBSERVATIONS ON T.S. ELIOT’S MURDER IN THE CATHEDRAL
Schade, Gerson
Eliot Murder in the Cathedral
Aeschylus Agamemnon
Louis MacNeice
Wyndham Lewis
Louis MacNeice translated Aeschylus’ Agamemnon in such a way that some were reminded of T.S. Eliot’s playMurder in the Cathedral. Both plays were staged in the mid-1930s in England, and the authors correspondedwith each other. At first sight, this is the story of a minor figure imitating greater stylishness. A closer analysis,however, reveals that Eliot drew largely on Aeschylus’ Agamemnon. This is new, yet on second thoughts, notsurprising: being obsessed by heritage and tradition, Eliot was surely a fervent reader of classical tragedies,perhaps even a fine connoisseur. Nevertheless, there is another story, lurking in the background so to say, thistime about a great poet indebted to a subtle and sensitive mind.

Klemensa Janicjusza sztuka wymówki
Buszewicz, Elwira
the recusatio in poetry
rhetorical strategies in poetry
neo-Latin elegy
Clemens Ianitius’ poetry
Piotr Kmita’s patronage
renaissance in Poland
Rhetorical strategy called the recusatio, starting from the rejection of the epic in the Hellenistic period, developed in diverse ways in Roman poetry (Tibullus, Vergil, Horace, Martial and others). It was often connected with the poet’s declaration of his literary interest, hierarchy or program. The author’s aim is to confront these topoi with Clemens Ianicius’ realization of this strategy in three elegies: Tristia III (Excusat Petro Cmitae, Viro Illustri, Patrono suo, silentium suum Patavinum…), Variae elegiae VI (Verecunde a Petro Cmita petit, ut ei ad Italica studia subsidio sit) and Variae elegiae XI (A Franciscano quodam rogatus, ut in Scotum quiddam scriberet, se illi excusat).

Barley flour (áleuron kríthinon) in ancient and early Byzantine medicine (I – VII c. AD)
Jagusiak, Krzysztof
Kokoszko, Maciej
ancient medicine
Byzantine medicine
common barley
The following article attempts to address two issues. The first one concerns dietetic characteristic of barley flour, which was a very popular product used both in Graeco-Roman and Byzantine culinary art and medicine. The second one deals with the therapeutic role of this product: different forms of remedies made from it, its effects on the human body, and various health problems cured by an application of medicines containing aleuron krithinon. To address these questions we study ancient and Byzantine Greek medical sources written between the 1st and 7th century AD by Dioscurides, Galen, Oribasius, Aetius of Amida, Alexander of Tralles, Paul of Aegina, and the anonymous author of the treatise entitled De cibis.

An analysis of these examples reveals that the poet makes the most of the Latin language’s semantic and musical potential and in doing so achieves quite spectacular sensory effects.

Hellenistic mimetic poetry
Schade, Gerson
estrangement device
mimetic hymns
urban bucolic
Since Callimachus’ mimetic hymns, super-realistic sceneries are common in Alexandrian poetry. This type of ‘realism’, however, only accompanies textual interplay. It may even be subordinated to it, as a new reading of Theocritus’ Adoniazusae (Idyll 15) suggests.

Grecka nazwa ślimaka σέσῑλος i jej indoeuropejska geneza
Witczak, Krzysztof Tomasz
etymology
Greek dialectology
Hesychius of Alexandria
snail
The author discusses three Ancient Greek names for ‘snail with a spiral shell’: (1) σέσῑλος, (2) σέσηλος and (3) σέσελις (gen. sg. σεσέλιτος). It is suggested that the first name σέσῑλος is of Ionic origin (with the regular representation of the diphthong ει as ῑ), the second one σέσηλος belongs to the Doric heritage (see the Laconian gloss in Hesychius’ lexicon: σέσηλοι· κοχλίαι. Λάκωνες), and the third σέσελις represents a purely Attic form. The Proto-Greek archetype should be reconstructed as *σέσελϝος (m.) ‘snail’. In fact, the disappearance of the glide *ϝ in the Ancient Greek dialects causes the lengthening of the original vowel *ε to ει (later ῑ) in Ionic, to η in Doric. Only the Attic dialect preserves the short vowel ε with no change, see e.g. Ionic ξεῖνος, Doric ξῆνος, Attic ξένος (m.) ‘guest-friend; guest; stranger, foreigner, refugee’ < Proto-Greek *ξένϝος, see Myc. Gk. ke-se-nu-wo [ksenwos], Aeolic ξέννος, Corcyrean πρόξενϝος (m.) ‘public guest, deputy’. The archetype *σέσελϝος was created as a reduplicated form of the Indo-European verbal root *tsel- ‘to creep, crawl’, cf. Old Indic (Vedic) tsáru- m. (u-stem) ‘a crawling animal’ (< IE. *tsélus m. ‘snail’). A related term with no reduplication is attested in the Hesychian glossary (σ-374): σελάτης· κοχλίας, as well as in the Celtic languages, e.g. [1] MIr. selide ‘snail’, Mod. Ir. seilide, seilchide, seilmide, slimide ‘id.’ (< Celtic *selantī- < IE. *tsel-n̥t-ī); [2] OIr. selige m. (gl. testudo) ‘tortoise’, MIr. seilche ‘tortoise; snail’, Scottish Gaelic seilcheag ‘snail’ (< Celtic *selaki̯ās < IE. *tselə2ki̯ās).

The present paper focuses on friendship’s role in life and poetry of Klemens Janicki (1516–1543). Unfortunately there is a noticeable lack of sources and testimonies. The analysis of poetical works written by Janicki is only partially useful. In the epoch of the Renaissance very often the statements on friendship were exaggerated. Despite of these circumstances it is possible to analyze the poetical techniques used in texts about friends and friendship. The paper ends with an attempt to describe the nature of Ianicius’ relationships with his friends.

Opera – Oratorio Oedipus Rex by Stravinsky and the Greek Original

opera.
This article is a voice in the discussion on the methods of stage implementation of Greek tragedy. The discussed staging of “Oedipus Rex” opera by Stravinsky (Tokyo ‚94) is dominated by non-verbal means of expression (music, set design, costume, stage movement), thus setting a supporting role for the libretto. Nevertheless, the performance arouses similar feelings and emotions as Sophocles’ drama.

Change of Rhythm as a Compositional Technique
Stępień, Piotr
Greek metrics
metarhythmia
song structure
Greek tragedy
lyric metres
The paper demonstrates rules and some of the basic applications of metarhythmia that is one of the compositional techniques used by Greek tragedians. The presentation of the examples is proceeded by discussion on the phenomenon of the so-called verbal rhythm, and distinction between metrical pattern and its syllabic realization. In the context of metarhythmia, verbal rhythm produces rhythmic ambiguity that reveals itself in specific syllabic realizations of metrical patterns. The result of the process is used by poets to generate consecutive rhythmic phrases (cola), and thus to shape artistically the structure of a song.

“Gothic” Elements in Seneca’s Tragedies
Pypłacz, Joanna
Seneca
Gothic tragedy
imagination
Poe
In the present article I discuss the remarkable fact that many of the motifs to be found in Seneca’s tragedies – such as a horrible death, a madman, an obsession or some supernatural agent – are also to be found in abundance in the work of “Gothic” authors such as Ann Radcliffe and Edgar Allan Poe. Indeed, these motifs are now commonly considered to be the hallmark of the Gothic genre. I also analyse some of the techniques which Seneca uses in order to arouse fear and stimulate the reader’s imagination, comparing them with those used by Poe and other Gothic writers.
