This book investigates the language used by protagonists in four major political debates in the early history of the United States.&nbsp;The first of these concerns the controversy in the first United States House of Representatives in the summer of 1789 on whether a proposal for a bill of rights should be considered in an expeditious fashion or whether the issue should be left till much later. The second is the principal debate on whether a sedition act should be enacted in July 1798, and the third concerns the enactment of the Logan Act of 1799. The fourth investigates the elections for the Legislature of the State of New York in the spring of 1800, which was the key event affecting the outcome of the presidential election of 1800. In each case there was a sharp disagreement between groups of politicians representing different points of view, and each event was significant from the point of view of the political history of the United States. The authors introduce these four debates, as well as the notion of informal fallacy -&nbsp;taken to designate an argument that is unsatisfactory in some way - before analysing deceptive fallacies and demonstrating how fallacy theory can be used as a critical tool in the examination of political argumentation. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of political communication, rhetoric and argumentation, US history and politics, and diachronic linguistics, especially diachronic pragmatics.&nbsp;Juhani Rudanko&nbsp;is&nbsp;Professor Emeritus in the Department&nbsp;of English at Tampere University, Finland. He has written books and articles on the system of English predicate complementation, including&nbsp;Complementation and Case Grammar&nbsp;(1989) and&nbsp;Changes in Complementation in British and American English&nbsp;(Palgrave Macmillan, 2011), and on the application of diachronic pragmatics and fallacy theory to the language of political argumentation in early American history, including&nbsp;Discourses of Freedom of Speech&nbsp;(Palgrave Macmillan, 2012).Paul Rickman&nbsp;is University Instructor in English Language at the University of Tampere, Finland. His research interests include complementation, New Zealand English, phonetics, English accent variation, corpus linguistics, and historical pragmatics, and he has published on a number of these topics. His first book-length publication (Corpus-Based Studies on Non-Finite Complements in Recent English,&nbsp;2018) was one of several collaborative projects with Juhani Rudanko.&nbsp;

Volume 2 contains the 16th to 25th issues from 1891 to 1892.
 
 Published to celebrate the bicentenary of Ulrichs' birth in 1825, this three-volume edition contains the full Latin text of Alaudae alongside a translation and contextualising notes. Ulrichs is the first known LGBT activist and the founder of LGBT Studies as a social science, and he was also a Classicist and journalist. As such, he understood the appeal of variety: the issues of Alaudae contain original and contributed poetry and epigrams; stories from the Greek and Latin Classics; descriptions of ancient monuments and their inscriptions; reports on the 300th anniversary of Galileo teaching at the University of Padua; news of earthquakes and unusual weather; serialisations of Ulrichs' own fiction; speeches from university graduations and other festivals and ceremonies; reviews of books, journals and newspapers; examples of German and Italian dialects, and of the use of Latin in different countries; reports of religious ceremonies and political events; notes of his own private excursions and experiences and research. The events mentioned took place worldwide across the UK, Ireland, Europe, North and South America, the Middle East, Asia, Africa and Australia.

"For the first time, with this three-volume companion, students can access the full literary and historical significance of the Aeneid in translation through a commentary that unpicks Virgil's literary techniques, structural forms and historical resonances. Written by an experienced teacher and expert on the Aeneid this is an authoritative and accessible guide to students and non-specialists in Latin literature alike. Volume 1 contains a broad contextual introduction; the commentary on Books 1-6 are in Volume 2; and the commentary to Books 7-12 are in Volume 3"--

With this three-volume companion, students can access the full literary and historical significance of the Aeneid in English through an accessible yet authoritative line-by-line commentary. Written by an experienced teacher and expert on the Aeneid, this guide unpicks Virgil's literary techniques, structural forms and historical resonances. The line-by-line commentary in Volume 2 focuses on two central translations of the Aeneid Books 1-6 (in verse by Robert Fagles and in prose by David West). Tanfield helps you understand the choices that translators make as they decide how to craft their own particular readings of the Aeneid. Plus, this companion includes extensive explanatory notes, context and a wide range of scholarly critique to ensure you have everything you need in one place. For a broad contextual introduction to the poem and its author, Volume 1 is available separately.

A Companion to the Aeneid in Translation: Volume 2

Untersuchungen zur antiken Literatur und Geschichte

In Lucian’s Toxaris, the characters’ speeches play a performative role as they become their deeds of friendship. Between irony and (self-)othering, past and present, the dialogue negotiates a mixed form of identity by affirming a Hellenocentric position and deconstructing an Athenocentric per-spective on Greek culture. Eventually, both aspects converge, as the characters’ ability to make speeches on friendship displays their mastery of Greekness. This book, itself a hybrid of commentary and monograph, consists of an introduction, which con-textualises the dialogue in its cultural, philosophical, and literary background; the Greek text with textual critical notes, followed by an English translation; and a commentary, which is organised ac-cording to the central themes of the dialogue: the representation of friendship and the decon-struction of stereotypes. The commentary helps us to better understand how friendship is ap-proached in this dialogue and how the latter relates to the value of friendship in the context of the Roman imperial period. Simultaneously, it provides an examination of the way in which different voices – serious or deriding, Greek or Scythian, etc. – are ambiguously entangled in Lucian’s dia-logue.

"The Small Stuff is quintessential Gowers. Written with characteristic verve and elegance, it challenges us to think again about what constitutes a subject worth pursuing."--William Fitzgerald, Professor of Latin Language and Literature, King's College London "The bold essayistic orientation of Emily Gowers's book--in which wit, subversive potential, and interpretive levity stunningly come together--sets a new standard, which many will no doubt attempt to imitate."--Mario Telò, author of Greek Tragedy in a Global Crisis: Reading through Pandemic Times

A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press’s Open Access publishing program. Visit <a href="https://doi.org/10.1525/luminos.217">www.luminosoa.org</a> to learn more. Why are the small and unimportant relics of Roman antiquity often the most enduring, in material form and in our affections? Through close encounters with minor things such as insects, brief lives, quibbles, irritants, and jokes, Emily Gowers provocatively argues that much of what the Romans dismissed as superfluous or peripheral in fact took up immense imaginative space. It was often through the small stuff that the Romans most acutely probed and challenged their society’s overarching values and priorities and its sense of proportion and justice. There is much to learn from what didn’t or shouldn’t matter. By marking the spots where the apparently pointless becomes significant, this book radically adjusts our understanding of the Romans and their world, as well as our own minor feelings and intimate preoccupations. &nbsp;

The Small Stuff of Roman Antiquity

Antike nach der Antike / Antiquity after Antiquity

Die Spätantike als Rezeptionsepoche

A vivid and musical rendering of the poetry of Catullus, whose passionate verses have captivated readers for centuries &nbsp; “Catullus’s verses still ring true, reminding readers that the habits of the heart haven’t changed in millennia.”—Publishers Weekly &nbsp; In the fourteenth century, a manuscript surfaced in Verona that had been lost for more than a thousand years: the poems of Catullus (c. 84–c. 54 BCE), considered by many to be one of the greatest poets who ever lived. These poems, with their beauty, wit, tenderness, and heartbreak, are still as alive and moving today as they were two thousand years ago. &nbsp; They are dense, subtle, witty, ardent, fearless, deeply uncensored, nasty (sometimes), petty (sometimes), and always beautiful. It’s especially his love poems that have earned readers’ admiration over the centuries; the joy and the savage self-inflicted torments that he underwent in his “miserable, disastrous love affair” have been shaped into poems that for honesty and emotional power have few parallels in world literature. &nbsp; Stephen Mitchell, who is known for bringing ancient texts to vibrant new life, has now translated Catullus’s poems for a new generation of readers. These are the first translations of Catullus to reimagine his rhythms in English and thus to let contemporary readers hear the formal beauty of his verse as well as its content, which Robert Lowell calls “much more raw and direct than anything in English.”

Second Language Learning and Teaching

This book offers an in-depth exploration of the causes and consequences of competition among language learners, with a particular focus on understanding the intricate relationships between competitiveness, beliefs about competition, and other psychological variables pertinent to language learning, such as motivation, anxiety, and mindsets. The initial chapters provide a comprehensive review of various competition theories and the latest empirical research on competition across diverse domains, including education and the workplace. Subsequently, the book qualitatively investigates the linguistic, psychological, educational, cultural, and contextual factors that contribute to competition in English language classrooms. It also delves into the potential psychological, educational, and personal outcomes of such competition in second language (L2) learning environments. Furthermore, this monograph scrutinizes the interplay between competition-related variables and the motivational and emotional dimensions of L2 learning. In its concluding sections, the book offers practical insights for language educators, guiding them on how to effectively manage competition among students to mitigate its adverse effects while leveraging its potential to enhance language learning and development.

Das "Grundbuch des ganzen Mittelalters" (E. R. Curtius)Isidor von Sevilla (um 560 - 636) gilt manchen als der letzte Autor lateinischer Muttersprache. Sein Vorsitz beim 4. Reichskonzil zu Toledo (633) nahm Einfluss auf die spanische Geschichte - doch vor allem erreichte er mit seinem umfangreichen schriftstellerischen Schaffen eine außergewöhnliche Bedeutung. In seinen Werken, die in über tausend Handschriften überliefert sind, behandelt er naturwissenschaftliche, grammatische, historische und theologische Themen. Das Hauptwerk in der Reihe der naturwissenschaftlichen Schriften sind die für König Sisebut geschriebene Etymologiae in 20 Büchern, die er um 630 abschloss. Das ehrgeizige Ziel dieser nach Themen gegliederten Enzyklopädie war es, die Welt und alle ihre Erscheinungen aus den Namen der Dinge heraus zu erklären. Ergebnis des Werkes war eine prägnante Zusammenfassung der geistigen Grundlagen Europas, nämlich des antiken Erbes sowie der Bibel und der frühen Kirchengeschichte.Eine prägnante Zusammenfassung der geistigen Grundlagen Europas um 630Buch 1: GrammatikBuch 2: Rhetorik und DialektikBuch 3: Mathematik, Musik, AstronomieBuch 4: MedizinBuch 5: Rechtswesen und ZeiteinteilungBuch 6: Bücher und KirchenfesteBuch 7: Gott, Engel, HeiligeBuch 8: Kirche, Sekten, ReligionenBuch 9: Sprachen, Völker, ReicheBuch 10: Wörter, Namen, BegriffeBuch 11: MenschBuch 12: TiereBuch 13: Die Welt und ihre EinteilungBuch 14: Die Erde und ihre EinteilungBuch 15: GemeinschaftslebenBuch 16: Steine und MetalleBuch 17: LandbauBuch 18: Krieg und Spiele,Buch 19: HandwerkBuch 20: Gebrauchsgegenstände

Bloomsbury Neo-Latin Series: Early Modern Texts and Anthologies

On June 13, 1753 the Irene set sail from London to New York. One of her passengers was Christian Wedsted, a Moravian missionary headed to his post in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. While many travelers would chronicle their transatlantic journeys, Wedsted chose to recount his in 200 lines of Latin poetry, imitating the preferred form of the ancient Roman poet Ovid. This poem is one of about 45 Latin poems that Wedsted composed in Germany, England, and Pennsylvania, all of which are presented here together for the first time alongside translations into English. A critical introduction and commentary provide historical, literary, and religious context for Wedsted's poetry, across an oeuvre containing birthday poems, impassioned religious verses, and personal anecdotes about life in colonial Pennsylvania. At around 1200 lines, the poems make up one of the largest extant collections of 18th-century Latin poetry from the Americas. Moravian piety is central to Wedsted's identity, and he exchanges poems with important Moravian personalities, weaving together classical material and Christian material to create an original and unique project in colonial America. Many of the poems are experiments in genre that put ancient models and meters to work in new contexts. Half of the poems were written after his arrival in America, and as such they offer a rare window into life on the colonial frontier.
