Iust. Min., 3) which describe hunting games in the Roman arena (venationes) and have communicative aims: they either praise officeholders (consuls, generals, and emperors), or they criticize their opponents. This theme plays a fundamental role in early imperial poetry. But while early imperial poets (Calpurnius, Statius, Martial, and Juvenal) convey their message of praise or invective with briefer passages, Claudian and Gorippus present concatenated scenes, with the effect of increasingly persuading and impressing the reader. The role of the venatorial subject in Christian poets such as Prudentius (Prud., Ham.; c. Symm.) will be treated as well. Finally, this essay aims to establish when venationes are last attested in (late) Roman poetry.","PeriodicalId":34516,"journal":{"name":"Nova Tellus","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44172073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Las exposiciones tratan sobre Ancient Scholarship. Según entiendo, esta frase engloba notas sobre educación y cultura, en esencia, helenística y romana. Este volumen se desarrolló en la conferencia ‘Ancient Scholarship: Scholastic Culture in the Hellenistic and Roman Eras’, la cual se celebró del 27 al 28 de abril del 2017 en la Universidad de Glasgow. Esa vez, los eruditos se reunieron para discutir los contactos multiculturales entre Grecia, Roma e Israel a propósito del libro antiguo. La producción, comercialización y discusión de los textos judíos, griegos y latinos fueron el sustento de la tradición oral de la didáctica en la Antigüedad. La introducción (pp. 1-6) de Sean A. Adams propone analizar el contexto diacrónico de la Scholarship. La escuela antigua se basa en la discusión de ideas propias y ajenas, las cuales construyen la cultura y las tradiciones de cada pueblo. Los estudios culturales se realizaron en grupos de lectura y en bibliotecas. La edición usaba determinadas tipografías para distinguir la literatura tradicional de textos legales y religiosos. Scholastic Culture es un concepto que abarca: conservación, comentario, traducción, y crítica de textos en grupos de élite y con autoridad sociocultural. El término Scholarship entonces tiene que ver con léxico, tecnicismos, filología, tradición, historiografía, academias, conservación y retransmisión de la cultura (en este caso: griega, latina, egipcia y judía).","PeriodicalId":34516,"journal":{"name":"Nova Tellus","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41814397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The expression of her complaints —in front of Chremylus, the comic hero, and also of the young man, who approaches the hero’s house in order to express his gratitude to the god— results in an episodic scene devoted to the exposition of material precariousness of her decayed body. Behind this comic denigration, usual against old and ugly persons, there are also exposed various forms of body apprehension very subtly, on which this paper intends to explore. We refer to the affective and sensitive construction of corporality, to the dynamics of body language, to the physiological imprint of immateriality (such as pleasure or pain), among several aspects that prove the author’s special interest in the body.","PeriodicalId":34516,"journal":{"name":"Nova Tellus","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42255447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
