摘要

本文首先提出的论点是,"暴力 "的范畴是由文化构建的,并因个人的文化和历史背景而异。这并不是要为当代违反我们的法律和标准的行为开脱,而是要提供一个平台,让我们通过男性精英撰写的文本来研究罗马人关于可接受和不可接受的武力的观念。通过研究塔西佗《年鉴》中描写的尼禄对待屋大维娅的方式,我认为我们可以发现罗马社会/道德对尼禄施加给屋大维娅的暴力(技术上合法)的谴责。然而,与匿名的《屋大维雅》中对同样事件的描述相比,我们可以看出这种谴责是多么地以受害者作为道德和社会楷模为条件。

A tale of two Octavias: historical empathy and intimate partner ‘violence’
This paper starts with the contention that the category of ‘violence’ is culturally constructed and varies according to one’s cultural and historical context. This is not intended to excuse contemporary acts that violate our laws and standards, but instead to provide a platform for examining Roman ideas of acceptable and unacceptable force so far as we can access them via texts written by male members of the elite. By examining Nero’s treatment of Octavia as it is depicted in Tacitus’ Annals, I argue that we can identify Roman social/moral condemnation of (technically legal) violence inflicted on Octavia by Nero. However, comparison with the depiction of the same events in the anonymous Octavia demonstrates how conditional this condemnation could be on the victim’s presentation as a moral and social exemplar.
