Full textAbstract:
I examine Wilde’s Hellenism in terms of the specific texts, editions and institutions through which he encountered ancient Greece. The late-nineteenth-century professionalisation of classical scholarship and the rise of the new science of archaeology from the 1870s onwards endangered the status of antiquity as a textual source of ideal fictions rather than a material object of positivist study. The major theme of my thesis is Wilde’s relationship with archaeology and his efforts to preserve Greece as an imaginative resource and a model for right conduct. From his childhood Wilde had accompanied his father Sir William Wilde on digs around Ireland. Sir William’s ethnological interests led him to posit a common racial origin for Celts and Greeks; thus, for Wilde, to read a Greek text was to intuit native affinity. Chapters 1–3 trace his education, his travels in Greece, his involvement with the founding of the Hellenic Society, and his defence of the archaeologically accurate stage spectaculars of the 1880s, arguing that in his close association with supporters of archaeology such as J.P. Mahaffy and George Macmillan Wilde exemplifies the new kind of Hellenist opposed by Benjamin Jowett and R.C. Jebb. Chapter 4 makes a case for Wilde’s final repudiation of archaeology and his return to the textual remains of Greek antiquity, present as an intertexual resource in his mature works. Thus I examine the role of Aristotle’s Ethics in ‘The Soul of Man Under Socialism’ and of Platonism in the critical dialogues, The Picture of Dorian Gray and ‘The Portrait of Mr W.H.’ I present The Importance of Being Earnest as a self-conscious exercise in the New Comedy of Menander, concluding that Wilde ultimately returned to the anachronistic eclecticism of the Renaissance attitude to ancient texts.

Full textAbstract:
The nineteenth century was characterized by important changes in society following the Industrial revolution and in this transformation era great personalities arose from the midst. This dissertation will consider one of the most prominent figure, Matthew Arnold, and his influence on Thomas Hardy, especially on his later celebrated and controversial novels. Firstly, the dissertation will explore the Victorian frame of mind in the light of some of the themes which both Arnold and Hardy dealt with, particularly, Religion, the Hellenism and Neoclassicism and the idea of Culture.
To investigate the values which gave shape to the Victorian frame of mind a few influential essays will be discussed in the first chapter, written by Carlyle, Mill, Huxley and Pater. These outstanding intellectuals and man of letters influenced the work of Thomas Hardy, who will be discussed in the following chapters. Starting with Tess of the D’Urbervilles, this dissertation will analyse the connections and influences of Matthew Arnold and his idea of Hellenism and Paganism especially in the character of Angel.
The following chapter will deal with the other great and controversial novel by Hardy, Jude the Obscure who might remind the readers of Arnold’s The Scholar-gypsy. Hardy developed in the novel contentious themes such as a critique of marriage, religion and sexuality.
The last chapter of this dissertation will focus on Hardy’s last novel, The Well-Beloved which is a more conscious novel on the artistic process and production, and it deals with the aestheticism, Neo-Platonism and the revival of the classical-Hellenic art which were part of the late nineteenth century Neo-paganism.
To conclude, this works will argue that the great novels of Hardy gather features and themes exposed and discussed throughout the XIXth century by the major philosophers and intellectuals. But Hardy, with an acute critique towards society and his eccentric vision of life, explored and developed the common Victorian themes looking and reshaping them with a modern outlook.

Jamir, Tia. "Origen's rhetoric of identity formation : Origens Paulinism in contrast to Hellenism / Jamir T." Thesis, North-West University, 2011. http://hdl.handle.net/10394/7368.
Full textAbstract:
How did Late Antiquity’s societies articulate their identities? This dissertation is a study of the construction of textual identities, as revealed by an analysis of Origen’s Paulinism which aimed to construct Christian identity in the third century CE. I have chosen extracts from Origen’s exegesis of Paul, found primarily in one text, his Commentary on Romans, as resources for my examination of identity issues. This text is an extremely helpful example of a deliberate fashioning of Christian identity through Origen’s joint use of Hellenistic paideia and the Bible. Pierre Bourdieu’s notion of habitus provides a helpful lens in decoding Origen’s and Hellenistic texts. Using habitus, the focus is on the rhetoric of identity formation through the fabric of the cultural, social, political, ideological, and literary contexts of Origen’s world. The study is more descriptive than polemical. The Greek paideia provides an immediate background to Late Antiquity’s concept of identity formation. The extant literature of the period comprised the fundamental vehicles of self–definition. This concept of fashioning identity through the construction of texts presents numerous difficulties for the contemporary reader. I will show that Origen used Greco–Roman moral philosophy and rhetoric in interpreting Paul. In seeking Origen’s notion of Christian identity, Origen’s reading of Romans is shaped by strategies of self–scrutiny and self–formation. Although Origen modifies the Greco–Roman moral philosophies—such as the notion of self–control, transformational narratives, and rhetoric deployment in his exegesis—much of the shared cultural and literary background remains.
Using the Hellenistic nuances of self–control and rhetoric, Origen shows his audience a distinct picture of what a transformed, mature believer should look like, the humanitas. The transformation that a believer underwent resulted in a new or intensified form of piety with consequent changes in social affiliations, relations and loyalties. He also uses different descriptions —“new man,” “inner man” and “perfect”—to identify the mature transformed believers. This believer is the humanitas, the much sought after identity, with the milieu of the third century C.E. He attempted to create a body of knowledge and to utilize it for the
preparation of a strong Christian identity in the midst of the pressures and temptations of the hegemonic Roman Empire and the pervasive Greco–Roman culture.
Along with the paideia, the Roman Empire nurtured and challenged Origen’s Paulinism. The Roman Empire did not require individuals, or even communities, to adopt for themselves a distinctly Roman identity to the exclusion of all others. Yet, everyone was required to worship the genus of the Emperor. The Roman identity transformed the Greek–barbarian dichotomy into an imperial ideology which claimed Roman supremacy over all other cultures and people. This usurpation of other societies by the Romans is an inverted mirror image of Origen’s usurpation of Rome’s Romanitas or humanitas through his Paulinism. Thus, he is to be seen constructing identity through shared forms of symbolic and linguistic construction which were readily available within his socio–political reality.Thesis (Ph.D. (Church and Dogma History))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2012.

Olverson, Tracy Dawn. "Daughters of Dionysus : women writers and the dark side of late-victorian hellenism." Thesis, University of Newcastle Upon Tyne, 2007. http://hdl.handle.net/10443/819.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the relationship of women writers to Hellenism in the latenineteenth century. In recent years critics have tended to focus on women's exclusion from the study and interpretation of classical literature and culture. Yet, I contend that the proliferation of Greek subjects in women's literature from the middle of the century onwards, suggest a collective movement into the classical tradition by women writers and scholars, rather than comprehensive exclusion from it. Indeed, this thesis focuses on the 1880s, when Hellenism was, once again, a la mode. As my title indicates, I propose that women"s contributions to 'Victorian Hellenism' can be conceived of as subversively Dionysian. Dionysus, the paradoxical Greek god of drama, of irrationality, gender confusion and fervent female rites, can be seen to personify the seditious Hellenism of the women writers in this study. Concentrating on the 'dark side' of Victorian Hellenism, I analyse the appropriation of transgressive, violent female figures from ancient Greek literature and myth, by Amy Levy, 'Michael Field' and Emily Pfeiffer. In so doing, I reveal the extent to which Hellenism was employed as a means to protest against and comment upon contemporary social and political institutions. I suggest that these women appropriated classical female figures in order to challenge the authority of ancient cultural models, by resisting and revising accepted paradigms. Furthermore, I demonstrate that women writers employ transgressive figures, not just as figures of rage, but as exemplars of women's strength, ingenuity and intellectual abilities. This thesis tracks the various trajectories of influence and the interplay of interests in women"s Hellenic writing of the late Victorian period. The writers in this study wrote using a variety of forms and techniques and they differed in terms of their subjects and their intentions. For instance, in 'Xantippe, ' Amy Levy exposes the gendered nature of Hellenic discourse, whilst in her closet drama 'Medea, ' I suggest that Levy combines her interest in feminism with her concerns about racial and religious intolerance. In contrast, 'Michael Field' focuses on the issues of sexuality and gender. In the volumes Bellerophon, Callirhoe and Long Ago Bradley and Cooper can be seen to explore the concepts of (female) desire and pleasure, as suggested by ancient paradigms. Emily Pfeiffer, on the other hand, finds the literary counterparts to her own frustrated desires for social and political equality in the figures of Cassandra and Clytemnestra. Pfeiffer also compares the oppression of women in the ancient Greek world with the struggles of modem British women for social and political emancipation in her fascinating travelogue, Fýying Leaves from East and West. What these writers have in common is that their Hellenism is woman-centred. Consequently, this thesis not only demonstrates the heterogeneity of 'Hellenisms' in women's writing of the late-nineteenth century, but also highlights the progressive political potential of the discourse of Hellenism for women

Baghos, Chris. "Christian Identity, Hellenism, and Romanitas in the Relatio Motionis and its Patristic Antecedents." Thesis, The University of Sydney, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/2123/15172.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis challenges academic claims that the Byzantines did not perceive any distinction between the Christian and Roman imperial traditions. It also attempts to verify why the Byzantine monks opposed excessive interest in the Hellenic cultural legacy, as argued by John Meyendorff. It subsequently explores the complex relation between Christianity, Hellenism, and Romanitas attested to by the Relatio motionis (RM), a largely unexamined martyr act dating from c. 655. This is in addition to its patristic antecedents, namely: Recension B of the Acts of Justin, the Apophthegmata Patrum, the Macarian Homilies and certain writings of St Maximus the Confessor. RM describes how Maximus and his disciple, Anastasius, censured the state’s unwarranted involvement in the Church’s affairs whilst on trial for their rejection of a heterodox edict known as the Typos. It demonstrates that their monothelite accusers were the first to anchor the Eastern empire’s history in the Classical Greek Period, to distinguish themselves from their dyothelite opponents in the old capital. Via its depiction of Maximus and Anastasius, the text illustrates what the orthodox Christians of this time perceived as their identity capital: i.e. virtues defined by martyrial and monastic literature. This investigation commences with an assessment of Recension B of the Acts of Justin. This accounts for a few of Maximus’ responses within the act, and its portrayal of him and Anastasius as the embodiments of Christian virtue. It proceeds with an analysis of Macarius and Maximus’ perceptions of Christian identity – especially its relation to altruistic compassion – and imperial authority. It points out that the homilist and the Confessor’s censures of the state were meant to safeguard the Church’s martyric attitude and curb imperial interference in its affairs. The anonymous author of RM inherited their estimation of Romanitas, as evidenced by assertions they attributed to Maximus numbering emperors with the laity, and their negative descriptions of his chief interrogator. Furthermore, this work examines the experiential epistemology developed by the Desert Fathers and Maximus, in order to uncover their complementary perceptions of Hellenic culture. These ascetics criticised the Greek philosophers in order to refute heterodox intellectualism. The depiction of Maximus as a sage similar to the Desert Fathers within RM suggests that its author adopted their epistemology and otherwise neutral estimation of Hellenism. Nonetheless, the author used the term ‘Greek’ to underscore the pagan-like conduct of the monothelites. Their usage was thus more polemical than that of their monastic predecessors. Contrary to the belief of many scholars, this thesis discloses that the Byzantines generally did not perceive something holy about the emperor. It also indicates that Maximus and his enigmatic follower clearly distinguished Christianity from Hellenism, having defined the former on the basis of theological – rather than cultural and pagan philosophical – categories.

Demos, Evangelos. "What are the Successes and Failures of Democracy and its Institutions in post-1975 Greece?" Thesis, The University of Sydney, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/2123/16187.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the successes and failures of democracy and its institutions in post-1975 Greece. As such, it contributes to the area of research by analysing institutions such as the constitution, citizenship, popular sovereignty, political parties, government, checks and balances, public sector, security, elites and finally, the Church of Greece. It is these institutions that have proven to be the most important in Greece and deal with the precedents of governance, state-apparatuses and quasi-state apparatuses. The approach taken in the thesis is from a diachronic perspective that historically analyses and interprets how each of these institutions has evolved since the establishment of the Greek Nation-State in 1821. It also determines the extent to how each institution was functional and dysfunctional. The periods covered are 1821-1974, Chapter 2 1975 – 1985, Chapter 3 1986 – 2000, 2001 – 2007, 2008 – 2016 and 2016 – future. More specifically, the thesis analyses these institutions in detail under the numerous Greek Governments that have been in power since the Metapolitefsi in 1975. This includes those of New Democracy (ND), the Panhellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK) and the current Coalition of the Radial Left (SYRIZA). The thesis, therefore, puts forth that Greece’s politicians in the last 41 years have manipulated the institutions of the Greek Nation-State in order to achieve short term goals for personal interests in the present. Greece’s politicians have thus shown no concern with developing institutions to achieve long-term goals for the interests of the overall Greek Nation both now and in the future. A significant amount of pressure for change must occur in the country, both from Diaspora Greeks and Europeans, if institutions in Greece are to evolve in line with a more democratic nature. Due to limitations, there is, however, more room for research to be conducted in this large area.

Full textAbstract:
The project offers new insight on the place of friendship in Forster's work, examining its political, philosophic, discursive, and aesthetic implications. Through examination of archival material, it focuses especially on some of his own friendships to delineate their influence in the development of his ideas, while highlighting the links across a long and varied discursive tradition of friendship. It, thus, works across the interstices of biography, fiction, and non-fiction. The emphasis on the literary friendship with Forrest Reid has hitherto been accorded scant regard, and provides for a particularly original argument regarding Forster's novel Maurice, using the E. M. Forster-Forrest Reid Letters Archive at Special Collections, QUB (MS44/1/22), and Reid's fiction, namely The Garden God. With regard to A Passage to India, the thesis traces the place of friendship from within Hinduism and Islam, including Bhakti and Sufi traditions, or both orthodox and heterodox religious traditions, which allow Forster to include desire within the realms of friendship. The dissertation displays the political potential for friendship in Forster's oeuvre to challenge the exclusionary boundaries of the colonial and liberal state by redefining what friendship entails, and who can be a friend. Same-sex desire, and inter-race and inter-class relations become embroiled in this new friendship. Forster's realization of this holistic model of friendship emerges through various standpoints in his novels-from a Greco-Roman philosophic understanding of friendship, through a deconstruction of late nineteenth-century Platonism, to an assimilation of the Eastern religious and poetic ideas about friendship.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the present study is to examine how Hellenism and Greek philosophy were received and used in arguments in the writings of John Chrysostom. The thesis is divided into five chapters of varying lengths, with the fifth chapter being the conclusion of the thesis. Chapter 1 is divided into two major parts. Part A is the story of certain major scholarly works on the topic of Hellenism and Christianity, particularly in late antiquity. Part B turns to previous scholarship on John Chrysostom and Hellenism specifically. We discuss three particular aspects of John’s reception, rhetoric, philosophy, and religious identity while also looking in interpretations from modern scholarship. This part and the chapter conclude with a general overview of the argument and an identification of research gaps. Chapter 2 is divided into five parts. After a discussion of the identity of those called Greeks in John’s corpus we proceed to analyse his extensive criticism of several aspects of Hellenism: philosophy, religion, public attitudes, and the binding power of tradition. The third part goes into the opposite direction and examines instances of John’s positive references to Hellenes and Greek history. In part four we see the reception moving on from the binary of praise and criticism and we discuss examples of both praise and criticism combined, along with indifferent references to Hellenes and John’s practical suggestions on how the Christians should treat the Greeks. In Chapter 3 we examine John’s embodiments of Hellenism and Christianity respectively through his comparisons of individuals. The first three parts consist of major comparisons, which are the most frequent ones in terms of the individuals compared, and minor comparisons, which are smaller treatments and usually group individuals together instead of treating them separately. The fourth part is a close analysis of Chrysostom’s Discourse on Babylas, a treatise that includes a major comparison between Babylas and Diogenes but also provides an opportunity for John to launch a full-scale attack against Hellenism. Finally, in Chapter 4 we will be looking into John’s reception of a specific philosophical school: the Cynics. After situating John’s own texts within previous Christian tradition and assessing differences and similarities, we complete the chapter by a comparison between John and the Cynics and their respective conception of a specific philosophical concept, that of autarkeia.

Ces travaux ont pour but d'analyser l'influence de l' Hellénisme dans l'œuvre de William Butler Yeats, dans la limite comprise entre la Grèce archai͏̈que et le cinquième siècle avant Jésus Christ. Cette influence s'est exercée dans deux domaines différents, la philosophie et la littérature. Nous commençons notre étude en posant un dilemme philosophique avec deux chapitres dans lesquels nous opposons les thèmes Platoniciens récurrents dans l'œuvre de Yeats, dans le second nous posons le rejet possible de cette main mise de Platon dans l'esprit de l'auteur. Dans notre seconde partie, nous procédons à une étude de la poésie de Yeats et de sa filiation grecque, tout d'abord dans le domaine mythologique, élégiaque et lyrique, puis dans le domaine de l'épopée avec l'influence d'Homère. Notre troisième partie est consacrée à la tragédie, Yeats ayant développé une forme de théâtre très semblable à la tragédie grecque attique. Nous concluons ce travail sur une note de réconciliation concernant l'affrontement traditionnel entre le héros et le saint dans la pensée de YeatsThis dissertation aims at analysing the influence of Hellenism in William Butler Yeats's work within the framework of archaic Greece and the fifth century B. C. The filiations between Yeats and the Greeks can be noticed in two different realms of study: firstly philosophy, secondly literature. Our first part shall deal with philosophy, stating the initial dilemma in Yeats's thought: that of Plato's ascendancy and the poet's possible rejection of it in his middle years. In our second part, we shall study the mythological and literary similarities between Yeats's poetry and that of the Greek world, stressing the importance of Homer in particular. Our third part shall be devoted to Attic tragedy, Yeats having clearly been inspired by the three Greek playwrights. Lastly, a fourth development shall consist in reasserting Plato's hold on Yeats's thoughts through a reassessment of the poet's own system which is set out in A Vision. We end on a note of reconciliation concerning the famous Yeatsian dichotomy between hero and saint

Morrison, Gary. "Second Maccabees and Jewish society: Representations of Jewishness, Hellenism and the interaction between the Greeks and the Jews." Thesis, University of Canterbury. Classics, 2005. http://hdl.handle.net/10092/4492.
Full textAbstract:
In the Second Century B.C.E. the Jews rebelled against their Seleucid overlords achieving, for a while at least, some sort of limited independence. The events that occurred are, in the main, recorded by two works: First and Second Maccabees. The latter of these is a much neglected text. It is maligned as tragic or pathetic history and generally only used by scholars on an ad hoc basis to support particular arguments. Second Maccabees is, however, still a product of a particular time and place, and therefore can give insights into the society from which it evolved.
This thesis makes use of this premise to analyse Second Maccabees. Our intention is to uncover some of the author's perceptions and beliefs in order to explain aspects of Jewishness and Jewish society. To do this we approach the text in a fresh way, paying close attention to repeated uses of particular words and any patterns in context that can be associated with these words - this includes associations that are made to particular events or groups. Repeated patterns, it is suggested, provide both an insight into aspects of the author's society and a context within which to interpret the text.
As part of this process we also discuss: First, the concept of identity - Jew, Judaean and the role of the 'other'. Second, the place of the Hellene and Hellenic culture in Jewish society (Jewishness), with particular attention given to the age old dichotomy of Jew versus Greek, Hellenism versus Judaism. The result suggests that the increasing tendency to minimise any Jewish-Hellenic conflict should be reassessed. This does not mean that Jews did not adopt aspects of Hellenic culture, but rather that the reality is far more complex. Societies operate and evolve on many, often (seemingly) contradictory levels, the self adoption of foreign (Hellenic) ideas does not mean that Hellenism cannot symbolise a threat.

Esta dissertação tem por objetivo a análise e avaliação do discurso de Paulo em Antioquia, em meados do I século d.C., com enfoque no texto de 2,11-14 da Carta aos Gálatas, onde ele discute com os líderes da Igreja a relação entre judeus e gentios, os limites da adoção dos rituais da Torá. O posicionamento de Paulo é entendido no contexto da cultura helenística e dos ideais do império Romano e o judaísmo é discutido a partir de suas múltiplas e complexas facetas e com toda a dinâmica cultural, social, econômica e religiosa em que se insere no período.

Resumo: O presente trabalho pretende repensar a datação estabelecida para o surgimento de comunidades cristãs na costa norte-africana, mais especificamente nas regiões do Egito e Alexandria, comumente estabelecida entre os séculos III e IV, com algumas ponderações para a segunda metade do século II. Tal perspectiva conta com um intenso trabalho de construção de uma teoria de análise metodológica que visa estabelecer um padrão a partir do corpus paulino e do conhecimento da documentação que estuda os centros de populações judaicas fora da região da Palestina conseqüência dos sucessivos processos de dominação. É importante notar que a perspectiva deste trabalho se ancora no fato de que quando se trata de cultura e religião antigas, em geral e de cristianismo e judaísmo antigos, no particular, só é possível um tratamento no plural, tendo em vista que estes processos comportam todas as ambigüidades que podemos pensar e, que a tentativa de homogeneizar está intimamente ligada às relações de poder que se estabeleçam na política, nas relações de gênero, estasservem à construção de práticas e posturas intolerantes e fundamentalistas. Esta pesquisa buscou baixar a cronologia de experiências "cristãs" com base na documentação,dialogando-a com a teoria de Carlo Ginzburg (1989) que trata dos paradigmas indiciários aplicado ao material neotestamentário, canônico e não canônico, bem com cartas e textos advindo do mundo politeísta
Abstract: This work intends to rethink the dating established for the rise of the Christian Communities on the North African coast, specifically in the regions of Egypt and Alexandria, commonly established between the third and fourth centuries, with some considerations for the second half of the second century. This perspective has an intense work of building a theory of methodological analysis aimed at establishing a pattern from the Pauline corpus of knowledge and documentation centers studying Jewish populations outside of Palestine region consequence of successive processes of domination. It is important to note that perspective of this work is anchored in fact that when it comes to ancient culture and religion, in general and ancient Christianity and Judaism, in particular, is only possible treatment in the plural, given that these processes involve all ambiguities and we think that the attempt to homogenize is closely linked to power relations that are established in politics, gender relations, these practices serve to build intolerant and fundamentalist attitudes. This Researchsought to lower the chronology of experiences "Christians" based on the documentation,talking to the theory of Carlo Ginsburg (1989) theory dealing with evidentiary paradigms applied to the New Testament, canonical and non-canonical material, along with letters and texts coming from the polytheistic world

Full textAbstract:
La « suspension du Capital-Monde par la production de la jouissance » annonce quelque chose qui tient à l'ordre du politique, et qui concerne pleinement la pensée de Marx. Comme notre sous-titre l'indique, il s'agit de saisir le sens du capital comme « Capital-Monde » grâce à la phénoménologie, et de penser la production comme « production de la jouissance » grâce à la pensée de la praxis offerte par Aristote. Nous acceptons donc le défi d'une lecture de l'oeuvre de Marx qui soit capable de le libérer à la fois du marxisme et de l'horizon de la philosophie moderne, afin d'en déceler l'ontologie à l'oeuvre dès les écrits de jeunesse. Ainsi, nous chercherons à thématiser le problème de la domination du capital, car Marx n'a pas fini de nous apprendre à analyser l'essence du capitalisme et de nous montrer dans quelle direction nous tourner pour tenter de produire autrement, c'est-à-dire pour agir librement et jouir de nos oeuvres. À partir du débat sur le jeune Marx, nous nous livrerons à une sorte de généalogie de la constitution de son ontologie. Ce parcours, semé d'impasses, occupera presque tout le reste de notre travail. Dans cette perspective, notre problème consistera d'abord à saisir le « dispositif logique » des Manuscrits de 44, pour montrer qu'en tant que eidétique matérielle, il permet de comprendre la formalité qui fondera ensuite Das Kapital. Notre tâche consistera en même temps à saisir la notion marxienne d'activation, pour montrer qu'en tant que praxis constitutive elle rend possible la suspension de la totalité des conditions philosophiques de fonctionnement du Capital-MondeThe “suspension of the World–Capital by enjoyment production” announces something which belongs to the political order, and which fully concerns Marx’s thinking. As the subtitle indicates it aims to grasp the meaning of capital as “World Capital” thanks to the phenomenology, and to think about production as an “enjoyment production”, thanks to the praxis given by Aristotle. We therefore accept the challenge of a reading of Marx’s work, liberated both from Marxism and the modern philosophy horizon, in order to reveal the ontology at work since his early writings. In this respect, we will try to topicalise the issue of the domination of capital. Indeed, Marx did not finish to teach us how to analyse the essence of capitalism and to show us in which direction to take in order to produce differently i.e. to act freely and enjoy our works. Starting from the debate on the young Marx, we will indulge in a sort of genealogy of the constitution of his ontology. This road, full of deadlocks and blind-alleys, represents the main part of our work. In this context, our problem consists mainly in grasping the “logic device” of the 44 manuscripts in order to show that as an eidetic material it permits to understand the formality which will then found Das Kapital. Our duty will consist at the same time to seize the Marxian notion of activation in order to show that as a constitutive praxis, this notion makes possible the suspension of the totality of the functioning philosophical conditions of the World-Capital

Full textAbstract:
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPESThe expansion of the ancient Kingdom of Macedonia, under the leadership of Alexander The Great, prompted the accession of Hellenic cultural dimensions throughout the West and Middle East in a process of cultural diffusion known as Hellenization. However, hellenistic cultural dominance was not without struggle Thus, this research has proposed as an hypothesis that the Old Testament book of Daniel is a result of a socio-religious experience that countered epicureanism by highlighting the principle of faithfulness to Yahweh. Daniel’s apocalypse offers a conception that the Jewish monotheistic deity interferes history in a conclusive manner, since in the end of time it will be judging all of the infidels (Dan 7: 13-14). Such philosophical system believed that the gods were in a state of ataraxia, blissfulness, serenity, antipathetic to any human feeling. Therefore, from a cultural approach of the religious phenomenon it has been scrutinized if the book of Daniel, written in an apocalyptic language, presents a proposal of socio-religious way of life posing an antithesis to the Epicurean doctrine while fostering the maintenance of a Jewish identity related to the divine figure of Yahweh in the second century BCE.
A expansão do império macedônico, sob a égide de Alexandre o Grande, impulsionou a adesão de dimensões culturais helênicas pelo mundo Ocidental e Médio-Oriental em um processo de circularidade cultural denominado de helenização. Contudo, houve contestações à dominação cultural helenística. Desse modo, esta pesquisa propôs como hipótese que, o livro veterotestamentário Daniel é produto de uma experiência sócio-religiosa e se opôs ao epicurismo colocando em evidência o princípio de fidelidade a Javé. O apocalipse daniélico apresenta uma concepção de que a divindade monoteísta judaica interfere na história de modo definitivo, pois no final dos tempos julgará todos os infiéis (Dn 7, 13-14). Esta percepção se opõe sobremaneira ao pensamento de uma escola filosófica do período helenístico, a epicurista. Tal sistema filosófico veiculava que os deuses eram ataráxicos, bem aventurados, imperturbáveis, incompatível com qualquer sentimento humano. Então, a partir de uma abordagem cultural do fenômeno religioso investigou-se, se o livro de Daniel, redigido em uma linguagem apocalíptica, apresenta uma proposta de modo de vida, na qual é possível perceber uma contra-argumentação à doutrina epicurista ao mesmo tempo em que fomentava a manutenção de uma identidade judaica ligada a divindade Javé no II séc. a.E.C.

"The Gandharan region (NW Pakistan) from the Iron Age to the Hellenistic period: a study in the rise of a complex culture across local traditions, Iranism and Hellenism based on ceramics." Doctoral thesis, Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna, 2018. http://amsdottorato.unibo.it/8570/1/Iori_Elisa_tesi.pdf.
Full textAbstract:
This dissertation attempts to give some insights into the complexity of the Gandharan cultural identity during the Early Historic Period (5th-1st centuries BCE) through the study of the ceramic material.
The excavations carried out during these three years of research at the site of Barikot(Swat, Pakistan),within the framework of the ISMEO Italian Archaeological Mission in Pakistan, have finally allowed to set a taxonomic and chronological sequence of the Early Historic ceramic corpus anchored to a substantial set of radiocarbon dates. The pottery markers identified for each Early Historic phase (Achaemenid, Mauryan, Graeco-Bactrian, Indo-Greek) were used as practical tools in order to obtain a reassessment of the fuzzy chronological sequences of the sites previously excavated in Gandhara, mainly Charsadda and Taxila. Cross-linking the data from the various excavations allowed to reconstruct the interaction trends, and their long term implications, between the various Gandharan areas during the second half of the 1st millennium BCE. The contextualization of this set of data within a broader geopolitical context enabled to reframe the emulation processes and the socio-cultural shifts triggered by the political developments which took place in Gandhara during the Early Historic Period, thus revealing the extremely dynamic ground on which the Gandharan cultural identity was constructed.

"La dialectique du déterminisme de l’aliénation et de la liberté dans les personnages de deux récits qui s’inscrivent dans le mouvement néohellénique de « l’étude de moeurs » (ithographie) [ηθογραφία] ) : Le Mendiant [Ο Ζητιάνος] (d’Andréas Karkavitsas (1896), La Femme meurtrière [Η Φόνισσα] d’Alexandre Papadiamandis (1903." Thesis, Paris 4, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016PA040111.
Full textAbstract:
A la fin du 19° s. les écrivains grecs créent un genre littéraire original, la nouvelle paysanne : une intrigue simple sert de base à la description de la vie et des moeurs dans des petits villages grecs. Ce mouvement a été appelé « étude de moeurs » (ithographie) [ηθογραφία]. Les bouleversements historiques et économiques au tournant du siècle entraînent une crise des valeurs traditionnelles et conduisent les auteurs à élargir leur questionnement. Dans Le Mendiant, Andréas Karkavitsas montre les déterminismes qui font agir les personnages collectifs que sont les paysans du village et les autorités venues les juger. L’individu est le représentant d’un groupe :Tziritokostas représente la classe des mendiants, Valachas la classe aristocratique déchue, Croustallo le groupe des paysannes. Quand ces deux derniers personnages prennent conscience de leur aliénation, le poids de la société est tel qu’il les écrase. Si la liberté est possible, c’est dans la mort. Francoyannou, l’héroïne de La Femme meurtrière d’Alexandre Papadiamandis, est responsable de l’enfer dans lequel elle s’enferme en multipliant les meurtres de fillettes. Le déterminisme, l’aliénation sont les fausses raisons qui lui permettent de se complaire dans ce que le récit révèle être la rumination de son âme froide et dure ; elle persiste dans le mal parce qu'elle refuse sa liberté de créature de DieuAt the end of the 19th century, Greek writers created an original genre, the rural novel : a simple plot is the basis for the description of the life and mores in small Greek villages. This movement was called "study of mores" (ithografie) [ηθογραφία]. The historical and economic upheavals at the turn of the century lead to a crisis of traditional values and lead the authors to expand their questioning. In The Beggar, Andreas Karkavitsas shows determinisms which act collective characters that are the peasants of the village and the authorities who came to judge them.The individual always represents a group: Tziritokostas represents the class of beggars, Valachas the aristocratic class toppled over, Croustallo the peasant women. These last two figures are partly aware of their alienation; but the weight of society is such that it crushes them. The freedom is possible just in death. Francoyannou, the heroine of The Murderess of Alexander Papadiamandis, is responsible for the hell in which she locks herself by multiplying little girls murders. Determinism and alienation are the false reasons that allow her to wallow in rumination of her soul cold and hard; she persists in evil because she refuses her freedom of God’s creature

Full textAbstract:
Syftet med denna uppsats är att studera Eleazars tal i Josefus Det judiska kriget i förhållande till bibliska och rabbinska traditioners syn på själen. Jag vill undersöka hur detta tal förhåller sig till Bibeln och andra delar av den samtida judiska traditionen, och till den samtida grekiska filosofin. Detta tal som Josefus tillskriver Eleazar är förlagt till händelser som utspelades omkring år 73 evt. och återfinns i Josefus verk om det judiska kriget (The Wars of The Jews, bok 7, kap. 8). Eleazars tal om själens odödlighet är förmodligen konstruerat i efterhand av Josefus. Detta sätt att efterkonstruera tal var ofta förekommande hos historikerna under denna tid. Jag kommer att låta talet styra över vad som ska behandlas i uppsatsen. När jag läst det tal som Josefus tillskriver Eleazar har jag kommit fram till att det främst rör sig om två huvudfrågor: Hur ser förhållandet mellan kropp och själ ut? Vad händer med själen efter döden? Jag har lagt tonvikten på vad som händer själen efter kroppens död eftersom talet i huvudsak handlar om själens odödlighet. Med denna undersökning vill jag återge hur en del av den hellenistiska judiska traditionen ser på själen och få en klarare bild av vilka tankegångar som finns i det tal som Josefus skildrar. Jag vill veta om de tankar om själen som finns i talet har sin grund i det bibliska eller rabbinska materialet och/eller om Josefus har tagit intryck från andra tankegångar som fanns i hans samtid.

Full textAbstract:
Le texte Si 10,19-11,6 a été peu étudié pour lui-même. La critique textuelle préconisant actuellement l’étude de chaque version pour elle-même plutôt que la reconstruction, ce texte a été étudié dans quatre versions (H, G, Syr, La), en essayant de dégager leurs différences majeures et leurs orientations de fond. À partir de cette péricope, trois thèmes importants dans le Siracide ont été retenus : la crainte de Dieu, la sagesse et la Loi. Partant de la notion de « crainte de Dieu » dans le Deutéronome, dans les Psaumes et dans les livres des Proverbes, de Job et du Qohélet, puis dans le Siracide, les liens avec "la sagesse" et avec "la Loi" sont considérés chez Ben Sira. Si 1 et Si 24 sont deux textes incontournables permettant d’approfondir la relation de « la crainte de Dieu » avec « la sagesse » et avec « la Loi ». La relation étroite entre ces notions conduit à se demander si elles ne représentent pas finalement trois aspects d’une même réalitéFew specific studies have been devoted to Ben Sira 10:9-11:6. Since textual criticism favors the study of each version separately rather than the reconstruction of an « original » text, the present thesis examines the four versions (H, G, Syr, La) and attempts to identify their major differences and their respective fundamental orientations. On the basis of this pericope, three important themes in Ben Sira have been identified: the fear of God, wisdom and the Law. Taking as a point of departure the notion of “the fear of God” in Deuteronomy, in the Psalms, and in the books of Proverbs, Job and Qoheleth and then in Ben Sira, the study examines the relationships of this theme with “wisdom” and “the Law”. Si 1 and Si 24 are two indispensable passages that allow an in depth understanding of the relationship between “the fear of God”, “wisdom” and “the Law”. The intimate relation between these notions leads us to ask ourselves if they do not represent three aspects of the same reality

Full textAbstract:
La période de la fin du XIXe et du début du XXe siècle est celle d’une expansion territoriale de l’Europe dans le monde. Cette expansion a cherché à se légitimer par le biais d’un discours qui se voulait humaniste : l’homme blanc, fort de sa supériorité raciale et culturelle, se devait d’aider les autres populations à atteindre un stade avancé de développement.Les historiens français et britanniques ayant travaillé sur l’Égypte lagide y ont, eux aussi, été sensibles. Les hellénistes ont amalgamé l’hellénisme à la culture européenne contemporaine, faisant de l’Égypte hellénistique un modèle. Ce dernier laissait un héritage que seuls les empires européens étaient capables de recueillir. De leur côté, les égyptologues, sensibles aux canons du Nouvel Empire, centrés sur la culture égyptienne, tout en acceptant l’idée du colonialisme civilisateur des barbares, considéraient la présence grecque en Égypte comme un corps étranger déstructurant une société déjà en déclin.Cette présente étude se propose d’analyser la réception de l’Égypte hellénistique à la lueur des paradigmes coloniaux, à travers les écrits de six savants : Pierre Jouguet (1869-1949), Auguste Bouché-Leclercq (1842-1923), Gaston Maspero (1846-1916), John Pentland Mahaffy (1839-1919), Harold Idris Bell (1879-1967) et William Matthew Flinders Petrie (1853-1942)The period from the late nineteenth and early twentieth century is that of a territorial expansion of Europe in the world. This expansion has sought to legitimize itself through a speech that was meant humanistic: the white man, with his racial and cultural superiority, had to help other people reach an advanced stage of development. The French and British historians who have worked on Ptolemaic Egypt have also been affected by it. The Hellenists amalgamated Hellenism to contemporary European culture, making a model of Hellenistic Egypt. This left a legacy that only the European empires were able to collect. For their part, Egyptologists, sensitive to the canons of the New Kingdom, centered on Egyptian culture, while accepting the idea of civilizing colonialism barbarians, saw the Greek presence in Egypt as a foreign body destabilizing a society already in decline. This study aims to analyze the reception of Hellenistic Egypt in light of colonial paradigms, through the writings of six scientists: Pierre Jouguet (1869-1949), Auguste Bouché-Leclercq (1842-1923), Gaston Maspero (1846-1916), John Pentland Mahaffy (1839-1919), Harold Idris Bell (1879-1967) and Flinders Petrie (1853-1942)

Période cruciale marquée par la guerre gréco-turque, la cristallisation des tensions nationalistes des deux états en opposition et les vicissitudes de la politique intérieure grecque, les années 1919-1922 représentent un tournant décisif pour l’hellénisme d’Asie Mineure. Comment la population grecque de Smyrne va-t-elle vivre ces années de guerre placée sous la tutelle de l’état grec ? Le débarquement militaire et l’établissement de l’Administration hellénique de la ville de Smyrne et de sa région viendront-ils combler les espoirs d’une communauté qui attendait avec ferveur sa « libération » et son rattachement à la Mère Patrie ? L’étude de la presse locale hellénophone permettra d’aborder la problématique de l’identité nationale du groupe par le biais de ses représentations médiatiques. Les modes d’expression du « nous » et les appels à la mobilisation collective constitueront la base des revendications identitaires de l’hellénisme smyrniote à la recherche d’un ancrage national propreThe years 1919-1922 represent a crucial period marked by the Greco-Turkish war, the climax of nationalist tensions between the two states in conflict and the vicissitudes of the Greek domestic politics. From this point of view they constitute a real turning point for Hellenism in Asia Minor. How did the Greek population of Smyrna live those years of war placed under the mandate of the Hellenic state ? Did the Greek landing and the establishment of the Greek Administration in Smyrna and its region fulfil the hopes of a community that had been longing for “liberation” and its reunion with the Mother Land ? The study of the Greek local press will allow us to examine how the community’s search for national identity is represented in the media. The study will demonstrate that modes of collective expression and various calls for social mobilization constituted the basis that allowed Hellenism of Smyrna to discuss, define and claim a firm and proper national foothold

Full textAbstract:
Le but de ce travail est d’étudier une composante de la société de l’Afrique romaine, constituée par les allogènes originaires de la partie orientale de l’Empire. Le cadre de cette étude est le Haut-Empire romain, car l’essentiel de la documentation dont on dispose date de cette époque. L’épigraphie est la principale documentation. Avant de passer à l’étude de ce sujet, il était essentiel de déterminer les clés de sélection qui ont aidé à fixer l’origine de ces allogènes et à dégager le corpus des 260 notices épigraphiques qui constituent le support de ce travail. Le principal outil pris en considération est l’onomastique, tout en tenant compte du caractère parfois imprécis de cet indice. Ensuite, plusieurs aspects de la présence de ces Orientaux étaient étudiés. En premier lieu l’aspect démographique ainsi que la répartition sur le sol africain. Le second aspect est le volet social. Il a pour but d’étudier les diverses caractéristiques de la présence de cette communauté d’Orientaux. D’abord, la nature des activités qu’ils pratiquaient. Si le métier des armes était leur vocation majeure, ils exerçaient néanmoins plusieurs autres activités. L’étude de leur vie religieuse a montré qu’ils sont restés majoritairement fidèles aux cultes de leurs pays. L’onomastique ou encore les pratiques matrimoniales ont été des indices qui ont servi à étudier la nature des contacts qu’ils ont eu avec les Afro-romains et à évaluer leur intégration dans la société d’accueil. En dernier lieu, une partie du travail a été consacrée à l’étude du phénomène culturel qu’est l’hellénisme et du rôle que ces Orientaux ont joué dans la promotion de ce genre de cultureThe aim of the present work is to study a component of the Roman African society: the one constituted by the aliens originating from the Eastern part of the Roman Empire. The study is framed within the Early Roman Empire, as most of the documentation available dates back to that period. Epigraphy is the primary documentation for this work. Before turning to the study of this subject, it was essential to identify selection keys that helped fix the origin of these non-natives and come up with the body of 260 epigraphic records that constitute the corpus of this work. The main tool taken into consideration is onomastic, notwithstanding the vagueness sometimes inherent in this index. Thereafter, light was shed on the many aspects of the presence of these Orientals. First, the demographic layer: figuring, motives, conditions and structures of departure and the distribution on the African soil. The second layer concerns the social aspect. It aims to explore the various features of the presence of the Oriental community in Roman Africa. First, the nature of the activities they exercised. If the job of arms was their main vocation, they still exercised several other activities. The study of their religious life showed that they remained largely faithful to the worship practices of their home countries. Onomastic and also marriage practices were clues that were used to study the nature of the contacts they had with Africans and evaluate their integration within the host society. The last part of the work was devoted to the study of the cultural phenomenon of Hellenism and the role that these Orientals played in promoting this kind of culture in a predominantly Latin province

On démontre trois choses dans ce travail : 1) L’histoire politique de la Macédoine, sous les Antigonides, est à comprendre à partir du problème du charisme et de ce que Weber appelle sa « quotidiennisation ». 2) Ce processus dépend d’une forme de sociologie, qui fait s’alterner pente à la construction d’une bureaucratie et nécessité d’une remotivation périodique de l’institution monarchique. 3) Cette sociologie s’enracine enfin dans la nature même du social, tantôt pratique démotivée, tantôt réenchantée, comme on le vérifiera ici à partir du problème du culte aux dirigeants et de la croyanceThis Phd studies the relationship between kings and subjects in Macedonia. It has three goals. 1) To give a comprehensive history of the Antigonids, by using Weber’s concepts (charisma and routinization) on three topics (King’s body, kings and queen, the constitution of a bureaucracy). 2) To study the hesitation of this regime between pomp and simplicity (kolakeia, parrêsia, hellenistic palace). 3) To ling this structural feature with a reflection on the nature of the Kingdom (by studying the ruler’s cult : did the Greek believec in their divinity ? What is belief ?)

Nous acceptons donc le défi d'une lecture de l'oeuvre de Marx qui soit capable de le libérer à la fois du marxisme et de l'horizon de la philosophie moderne, afin d'en déceler l'ontologie à l'oeuvre dès les écrits de jeunesse. Ainsi, nous chercherons à thématiser le problème de la domination du capital, car Marx n'a pas fini de nous apprendre à analyser l'essence du capitalisme et de nous montrer dans quelle direction nous tourner pour tenter de produire autrement, c'est-à-dire pour agir librement et jouir de nos oeuvres. À partir du débat sur le jeune Marx, nous nous livrerons à une sorte de généalogie de la constitution de son ontologie. Ce parcours, semé d'impasses, occupera presque tout le reste de notre travail. Dans cette perspective, notre problème consistera d'abord à saisir le « dispositif logique » des Manuscrits de 44, pour montrer qu'en tant que eidétique matérielle, il permet de comprendre la formalité qui fondera ensuite Das Kapital. Notre tâche consistera en même temps à saisir la notion marxienne d'activation, pour montrer qu'en tant que praxis constitutive elle rend possible la suspension de la totalité des conditions philosophiques de fonctionnement du Capital-MondeThe “suspension of the World–Capital by enjoyment production” announces something which belongs to the political order, and which fully concerns Marx’s thinking. As the subtitle indicates it aims to grasp the meaning of capital as “World Capital” thanks to the phenomenology, and to think about production as an “enjoyment production”, thanks to the praxis given by Aristotle. We therefore accept the challenge of a reading of Marx’s work, liberated both from Marxism and the modern philosophy horizon, in order to reveal the ontology at work since his early writings. In this respect, we will try to topicalise the issue of the domination of capital. Indeed, Marx did not finish to teach us how to analyse the essence of capitalism and to show us in which direction to take in order to produce differently i.e. to act freely and enjoy our works. Starting from the debate on the young Marx, we will indulge in a sort of genealogy of the constitution of his ontology. This road, full of deadlocks and blind-alleys, represents the main part of our work. In this context, our problem consists mainly in grasping the “logic device” of the 44 manuscripts in order to show that as an eidetic material it permits to understand the formality which will then found Das Kapital. Our duty will consist at the same time to seize the Marxian notion of activation in order to show that as a constitutive praxis, this notion makes possible the suspension of the totality of the functioning philosophical conditions of the World-Capital

Full textAbstract:
Cette étude analyse la place et le rôle du mode de vie dans les discours et les pratiques politiques à Rome à la fin du IIIe siècle av. J.-C. et au IIe siècle av. J.-C. qui formaient un moment charnière. Le luxe faisait partie des pratiques de distinction de l’aristocratie à la fin du IVe siècle av. J. C. et au IIIe siècle av. J. C. À partir de la deuxième guerre punique, l’élite commença à s’inquiéter du rôle politique du faste et des menaces qu’il faisait peser sur le système oligarchique ; elle fit ensuite voter des lois régulant les festins pour éviter que ceux-ci ne servissent à gagner du crédit politique, mais sans évoquer franchement cette raison, par déférence pour le pouvoir et par souci de préserver sa légitimité. Le combat contre le luxe investit les discours, influant sur l’image que l’élite donnait d’elle-même. Les adversaires du luxe, comme Caton l’Ancien, mirent en avant une nouvelle qualité, la frugalité, correspondant à l’adoption d’un train de vie inférieur à ce que son rang permettait. Une représentation négative se structura autour du luxe, explicitement et définitivement associé aux vices, aux étrangers, en particulier aux Grecs, et implicitement considéré comme caractéristique des hommes inaptes à servir leur patrie ou aspirant à un pouvoir excessif. Une représentation antithétique se développa autour de la frugalité, qualité des vrais Romains fidèles aux mœurs de la campagne et soucieux des intérêts de la République, une image qui fut particulièrement appréciée par le peuple. Ces arguments connurent un immense succès dans les luttes politiques du dernier tiers du IIe siècle av. J. C. La frugalité était cependant difficilement applicable en toutes circonstances car elle heurtait les normes de l’élite : il importait de signifier à travers elle une position politique, mais il fallait aussi savoir recevoir convenablement ses amis. Le stoïcisme, qui se développait alors à Rome et qui prescrivait une vie tempérante, dut s’adapter à cette exigenceThis study analyses the place and role of the way of life in political speeches and practices in Rome in the late third century BC and in the second century BC, which formed a turning point. Luxury was a means of social distinction for the aristocracy in the late fourth century BC and third century BC. From the Second Punic War onwards, the elite began to worry about the political impact of this sumptuousness and the threats it posed for the oligarchic system. Consequently, the elite introduced laws regulating banquets in order to prevent hosts from gaining political prestige, without clearly citing this reason, out of deference for the government and in order to protect its own legitimacy. This fight against luxury spread in speeches and influenced the image of itself which the elite wanted to promote. The detractors of luxury, like Cato the Elder, proposed a new ideal – frugality, which implied adopting a lifestyle more humble than that which was allowed by one’s actual rank. A negative definition of luxury was proposed – it was explicitly and definitively associated with vice, foreigners (Greeks especially), and implicitly considered to be typical of men who were unable to serve their homeland or who aspired to excessive power. An antithetic representation of frugality was developed and was thought to be the quality of real Romans who were true to the values of the countryside and anxious to preserve the interests of the Republic. This image was highly valued by the people. These ideas played a significant role in the power struggles in the last third of the second century BC. Frugality remained nonetheless a difficult quality to adopt in all circumstances because it went against the standards of the elite – while it mattered for the elite to make their political position clear through frugality, it was also important to cater to one’s guests as befitted one’s rank. Stoicism, which was then developing in Rome and advocated a restrained way of life, had to adapt to this demand
