It is assumed that the Latin blessing formulae, as reproduced in the comedies by Plautus, underwent discursisation that resulted in its reinterpretion as a routinized expression of gratitude, and, finally, as greeting formulae ( di tibi dent quae uelis!; di te ament! ). Firstly, an analysis of the dialogue openings that include this particular wording of the salutatio ritual is conducted. Moreover, the study offers additional insights into the Roman reciprocal donation system, which has been related to the communicative routines of thanking and greeting. In conclusion some general remarks are made about the nature of the repragmaticalization process and its results.","PeriodicalId":11579,"journal":{"name":"Emerita","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2017-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47377986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the underlying structure and scientific frame in which the text is supported, Isidore distinguishes wild asses and wild horses (onagri and equiferi) from the domestic ones (asini and equi). He divides asses into smaller working donkeys (aselli) and big asses (asini Arcadici), and horses into a vulgar class for pulling carts (ueredus), including a variety of minor size (mannus), and another class of noble saddle-horses, of which he mentions eight races according to their geographical origin.

This article assumes that in this text Seneca actively appropriates one Roman cultural device which plays a central role in memory building, the discourse of exemplarity. Taking into account that the topic of dying well is one of the backbones of the collection as a whole, we will examine Ep. 30, where the epistolary ego describes how an old friend faces death in an exemplary way. Considering that a deed proposed as exemplar requires not only a record, but also an agent that makes it visible (Roller 2004), we will try to show that in this letter the epistolary ego, aided by the written word, directs the reader’s attention to his own exemplarity, in order to build a positive and memorable portrait of himself.","PeriodicalId":11579,"journal":{"name":"Emerita","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2017-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46753338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
