Offprint, stapled. Condition: Gut. pp.71-102. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Author's name handwritten on cover, a bit light-margined, otherwise very clean. - From the text: HORACE'S Archytas Ode has recently been called "undeniably bizarre in conception but [also] original and imaginative." Criticism of the poem has itself come to a bizarre result. The poem has been read in a variety of mutually exclusive ways as monologue or dialogue, as serious or sarcastic, as about Archytas or some other dead man including Horace himself. Perhaps the strangest reading is what can fairly be called the standard interpretation of the poem. According to its adherents, the ode is a monologue "spoken by the corpse of a drowned man. First the dead man apostrophizes the great fourthcentury B.c. Pythagorean, Archytas of Tarentum, as he lies buried in his grave. Then at 23 he turns to a passing nauta and asks for burial himself. The structure of the poem causes perplexity because we do not know till 21 that the speaker is not Horace but a corpse." So Nisbet and Hubbard, repeating an interpretation traceable to Weiske and most recently endorsed by Syndikus. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.

Originalbroschur. Condition: Gut. 51-86 p.: Ill. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Untere Hälfte des Covers ist ausgeblichen, sonst sehr guter Zustand / lower half of the cover is faded, otherwise very good condition. - INTRODUCTION The purpose of this article is to discuss a number of Roman monuments, dating from the archaic age to the middle empire and located in the city of Rome and in other parts of the Roman world, that have some hitherto unrecognized common features of design, location, and the function of commemorating individuals who displayed extraordinary civic virtue. Sometimes identified as tombs, cenotaphs, or ustrinae, these monuments are better thought of as what, in modern times, would be called «memorials» or what, in antiquity, must have appeared to be adaptations to Roman taste of the Greek heroon. The examples of this monumental type are attested in the literary, archaeological, and epigraphical record with varying degrees of certainty. The most securely identifiable members of the group are the altar-column complex dedicated to Julius Caesar in the Roman Forum shortly after his death on the spot where his body was cremated (see below, section IX); the Pisan altar dedicated to Lucius and Gaius Caesar (cf. section X); and the Herculanean altar dedicated to M. Nonius Balbus sometime in the first century A.D. on the site where his ashes were collected after a public funeral (cf. section X). None of these three monuments may be properly called the tomb or cenotaph of their dedicatees since all were buried elsewhere; nor can any of the altars be considered an ustrino since, according to Festus (s.v. bustum, p. 32 Lindsay) an ustrinais the place where bodies are cremated and these structures were all built after the cremations (which in the case of the altar for Lucius and Gaius, did not even take place in Pisa). Inscriptions on the altars explain their motivation and, in two of the three cases, their function. They were publicly erected because their dedicatees were parentes, or patroni, of the state (cf. Svetonius, Caesar 85; CIL, XI 1420; Chiron, 6 [1976] 169); and they were to serve as the focus of annual lamentations on the day the dedicatees died (as is securely known from the inscriptions for Lucius Caesar, Gaius Caesar, and M. Nonius Balbus). In the remainder of this article which should be considered an heuristic, not exhaustive, study I will discuss the history of the memorial on the basis of these and other possible examples of the monumental type. Special attention will be paid to describing the architectural designs, topographies, and functions of the examples as well as to analyzing their political and symbolic value and their connections to each other and to Greek models. In the Conclusion, I will make explicit the underlying logic of my argument and I will point out some directions that future research might take to test my hypotheses.
