Abstract

An enormous turbot is presented to Emperor Domitian, who then calls upon his cabinet to determine the very best way to prepare the fish: This absurd situation provides occasion for Juvenal to undertake a broader critique of the decline of politics and morals during his time. This work re-examines Juvenal's big fish satire through detailed scholarly commentary. It includes the original text along with a new Italian translation. Santorelli demonstrates that Juvenal's satire not only looks back at the earlier period of Domitian's rule but also is intended as an indirect critique of the political system of the Optimus Princeps Trajan. Ein riesiger Steinbutt wird Kaiser Domitian überreicht, der daraufhin sein Kabinett einberuft, um die beste Art, den Fisch zuzubereiten, festzulegen: eine absurde Situation, die Juvenal Anlass zu einer weiteren Kritik am Verfall von Politik und Moral seiner Zeit bietet. In diesem Buch wird die sogenannte Fischsatire durch einen ausführlichen Kommentar neu erschlossen. Der Text sowie eine neue italienische Übersetzung sind beigegeben. Santorelli weist nach, dass Juvenal mit seiner Satire nicht nur an die zurückliegende Herrschaftszeit Domitians erinnert, sondern zugleich indirekt Kritik am Regierungssystem des optimus princeps Trajan übt.

Abstract

Der Band enthält vier Aufsätze, die von Lennart Håkanson zwischen 1976 und 1982 verfasst, aber aufgrund seines Todes nie veröffentlicht wurden. Håkanson bietet eine allgemeine Darstellung der argumenta in den pseudo-quintilianischen Declamationes maiores und untersucht einige der wichtigsten literarischen Modelle dieser Reden (Cicero, Seneca, Declamationes minores) sowie ihre Überlieferungsgeschichte. Der letzte Aufsatz ist einer umfassenden Analyse der rhythmischen Klausel in den Declamationes maiores gewidmet: Håkanson setzt sich mit älteren Studien zu diesem Thema auseinander und liefert ein unentbehrliches Instrument zur Datierung der einzelnen Reden der Sammlung.

Abstract

This new interpretation of V Satire is embedded in a broader analysis of a central topos in Juvenal's work: the degradation of the clientela. The introduction illuminates Juvenal's attitude towards this topic, giving particular attention to his relationship to Martial and to the reception of this topos by Lucian. The commentary explains text critical and linguistic issues and thoroughly investigates the most relevant historical aspects.

Abstract

"A controversia is a speech purporting to be delivered on behalf of either the prosecution or the defense in an imaginary trial. Slightly simpler is the suasoria, a speech of advice addressed to a mythological or historical character on the verge of making an important decision. Learning how to compose and deliver such speeches, known collectively as declamations (Lat. declamationes, Gk. meletai), was the final stage in the traditional Greco-Roman rhetorical training, which was considered the necessary preparation for public activity throughout the Roman imperial age. Although criticized for the often far-fetched nature of its subjects, declamation remained for more than six centuries the keystone of education for any young citizen who could afford a "high-school" training. At the same time, this school practice quickly earned the favor of a large audience of professional rhetoricians, enthusiasts, and people of average education: by the 1st century AD, public performances of fictive speeches were among the most popular events in the cultural life of the Roman empire. With its fictional universe of characters, laws, and recurring situations, declamation shaped a cultural background common to the writers and readers of the Greco-Roman world, who all shared the same--more or less standardized--rhetorical education. Among all the extant sources, the nineteen Major Declamations wrongly ascribed to Quintilian stand out for their contribution to our understanding of ancient declamation. They are virtually the only fully developed controversiae surviving from pre-medieval Latinity, invaluable because they show how a student was expected to handle the themes, the recurring situations and arguments, the technical rules. And what is more, they lay bare the mistakes that were often made in the process"--

Abstract

At his sudden death in 1987, Håkanson left a number of unpublished scholarly works. A former volume in this series (2014) printed four essays on the pseudo-Quintilianic Major Declamations; one more has appeared elsewhere. The present volume contains a commentary on Book One of the Controversiae by Seneca the Elder. After an introductory note by the editors, Michael Winterbottom offers a sympathetic appreciation of Håkanson's life and scholarship. This is followed by a full bibliography of his publications. Håkanson's own introduction deals with three key issues: Seneca's sources and his use of memory; his method of composition; and the textual tradition of the excerpts from his work. Håkanson's Teubner text (1989) of Controversiae I is subsequently reprinted. The core of the volume is Håkanson's commentary, mostly - but not exclusively - devoted to textual elucidation. The volume closes with a bibliographical updating on the issues dealt with by Håkanson in the book, and an index locorum. With its keen insights and stimulating discussions, this publication appeals not only to scholars focussing on ancient rhetoric, but to anyone concerned with the culture of the Roman imperial era.
