    Cicero, in his first Oratio in Catilinam, makes a clear distinction between the Roman deity Fortune and the inanimate, impersonal fortune to differentiate Catiline’s luck from his conspirators’ immorality. Cicero calls Catiline’s followers “abandoned by all of Fortune,” insinuating that the goddess Fortune, a famed Roman deity, judged these men so vile that she deserted them intentionally (“ab omni… Fortuna… derelictis”)(85). By proclaiming the name of the goddess and using “ab” to create an ablative of personal agent, Cicero suggests a choice made by a just, impartial deity to forsake Catiline's conspirators. On the other hand, Cicero notes that “fortune saved” Catiline without evoking personification of the goddess Fortune (“fortuna servavit”)(85).…

    On Roman Military Matters was written, according to Lieutenant John Clarke’s translation, in the fifth century by Flavius Vegetius Renatus, better known only as Vegetius. Vegetius wrote to abridge earlier military treatises on the training, organization, and use of the Roman Legions for Emperor Valentinian III and appears to hope that his writings would help to enact changes in the legions that would ultimately lead them to success against the invading Germanic tribes. The abridgments were written for Valentinian’s convenience, so that the emperor would not need to look through older works in order to look for insights on training and utilizing his army. There is a debate over whether or not Vegetius was writing to Emperor Valentinian III. Lieutenant John Clarke's translation suggests that Vegetius wrote for Valentinian but scholars, like T.D. Barnes argue for a fourth century date under Emperor Theodosius I based on manuscripts of the text and language describing the emperor and barbarian forces.…

    The Fall of the Roman Empire In approximately 200 AD, the ruling power of Greece started to diminish whereas the Roman Empire continued to expand at an exponential rate. The Roman Army persisted in their efforts to seize territory, and was so thorough in its imperialistic endeavors that it grew to an impressive size. Rome, obtaining the title of preeminent empire of the ancient world for several centuries, was comprised of various elements from successful societies such as the Greeks and Etruscans. These foreign lands impacted the republican government organization and further political ideology as well as the basic social and religious morals of the Roman people. Compared to all healthy governments, Western Rome faced trials regarding its…

    Introduction: Suetonius and Augustus Suetonius’ approach to biography is elucidated by centring focus on the Life of Augustus. Suetonius rose to prominence as a scholar, and later gained positions in Hadrian’s court, with his work The Twelve Caesars dated tentatively to the reign of Hadrian between 117-38 C.E. He did not write in a chronological style like his contemporary Plutarch, but rather divided his work thematically, into categories such as birth, achievements, career, morals and death, although the structure varied within his work. One of the proposed reasons for this structure is that Suetonius was inspired by Augustus’ Res Gestae. Erik Gunderson argues that Suetonius used Augustus’ Res Gestae as an exempla, while his section on…

    The Res Gestae Divi Augusti, which in English means ‘The Achievements of the Deified Augustus,’ was written by the first Roman emperor Augustus as a biographical account of his life just before his death in 14 CE. Because the document was written in first person, it lent Augustus the ability to portray himself and his rule precisely the way he wished it to be remembered. The original text was displayed on two bronze tablets set in front of the mausoleum of Augustus in Rome, though multiple other copies of the funerary inscription have been found in cities across the Empire. Both the public exhibition of the Res Gestae, and its deliberate manipulation of Republican rhetoric would have appealed to the hearts and minds of the Roman people when…

    There was not just one cause the downfall of the Roman Republic. Social and political problems, fast expansion, and corruption among the powerful had a huge effect on the fall of the roman republic. Some people say that the Roman Republic began in 509 B.C. with the end of the Roman monarchy in 27 B.C. One of the many issues that caused the falling of the republic was corruption in the government. Rome used to be democracy, Rome put power into the hands of many few (beard,2011). Only the rich could become in the senate, and the votes of rich people had more power than the votes of the normal people.…

    My observations of the Latin 1 curriculum at Regis Jesuit High School took place over four weeks in Fall 2015, during the end of the first six-week grading period and the beginning of the second. Regis Jesuit is a Catholic, college preparatory high school serving young men and young women. The unique school model is co-divisional, offering single-gender instruction by operating as two separate divisions—the Boys Division and the Girls Division. The campus is open, and there are opportunities for students to be together outside of the classroom, but the academic context is single-gender. Mr. Carroll teaches Latin 1 in the Boys Division to a group of young men in ninth-grade.…

    Epic similes are long, dramatic comparisons made between two objects or circumstances using such words as like or as. These similes are used frequently throughout the beginning books of The Odyssey to relate mortal characters in times of triumph or distress, usually heroes, to certain things or events that would have been relatable to ancient Greeks. In situations of victory or glory, characters are normally related to gods or god-like objects, while characters in periods of despair or failure are related to more insignificant objects. In book nine of Homer’s The Odyssey, Homer uses epic similes to compare the Cyclops to the brute and primal forces of nature, while comparing Odysseus’s control and trickery of the monster to civilization and…

    Titus Livius and The Early History of Rome Roman history is subjective to those who study it and write about the rise and the fall of the Roman Empire. One ancient historian named Titus Livius, who was born in either 59 B.C. or 64 B.C. , had written a series of books titled History of Rome. Not much is known about Titus Livius in his younger years except that he had lived in the city of Padua, which had suffered greatly in Rome’s Civil War. His books are split into several different decades of Rome’s rich history. The first series he wrote in History of Rome are broken down in five separate book(s) titled: “Rome under the Kings”, “The Beginning of the Republic”, “The Patricians at Bay”, “War and Politics”, and lastly “The Capture of Rome”.…

    Bernie Sanders once said, “A nation will not survive morally or economically when so few have so much, while so many have so little.” This statement accurately represents the Roman economy. Rome started out as a small city-state, but developed into a large empire because of its economy. The wealthy population of Rome nearly controlled the economy, while the poor lived difficult lives. Though much of the power rested with the rich, the growth in the economy was accomplished by the work done by slaves and civilians.…
