Abstract:In Cicero’s notorious letter to the historian L. Lucceius (Fam. 5.12), the orator creates an ironic persona through humor, figured language, and other markers of urbanity, destabilizing his readers’ sense of the letter’s apparent intent. The high level of intricacy and the author’s ludic tone draw attention to the form of the letter at the expense of its content, framing it as a virtuosic performance rather than a serious request. Cicero’s teasing of Lucceius points him more strongly toward an ironic interpretation of the letter as a joke shared between friends.

Abstract:Throughout Heroides 21, Ovid’s Cydippe complains vehemently about the suffering that Acontius has caused her, only to agree to marry him at the end of the poem. In this paper, I argue that her agreement is the result of erotic magic in the form of Acontius’ inscribed apple. While Ovid suggests the presence of magic in this story through specific vocabulary and broader language reminiscent of amatory defixiones, these suggestions are intentionally ambiguous: Cydippe, the narrator, never realizes that she is the victim of a spell. Nevertheless, the magical constraints on her mind and emotions bring her ability to consent to the marriage libens (Ep. 21.240) into question.

Abstract:In this study, we re-apprise Bockemüller’s largely ignored textual emendation of the unattested and likely corrupted baratre of DRN 3.955 to barathrum. Here we also attempt to supply internal and external evidence for Bockemüller’s correction of the strange vocative noun since that information remains wanting. In short, barathrum is shown to be a viable improvement since it coheres with theme and usage internal to the poem and is defensible externally when compared to similar vocative constructions and terms of abuse.

Abstract:In the fifth book of the Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle treats involuntary corrective justice in an interesting but somewhat confusing way. In particular, he uses a model borrowed from market transactions, such that a wrong-doer is imagined as taking excessively from a victim. But the identity of what is exchanged is left unclear. I argue that it is a record of having exercised one’s will. This leads to some surprising results, including the possibility that the actions of a living person might affect the disposition of the dead. I then apply this model to some examples from Homer, Aeschylus and Antiphon.
