In Petronius’ Satyrica 16–26, Quartilla approaches Giton, Ascyltus, and Encolpius to cure her Tertian Fever (17.7). More than this occurs, however. The trio are to be punished for an inexpiabile scelus (17.6) and Encolpius is apparently singled out for earlier offenses against the god. The odd things occuring at this vigil can be explained as retribution for these earlier crimes. In the Priapea and Horace (Sermones 1.8) Priapus’ style often is to punish offenders by turning upon them the same crime or a humorous inversion of it. Accordingly, the punishments at the Priapi genio pervigilium suggest what Encolpius’ earlier crimes against the god were.

This paper argues that the importance of the Procne scene in Aristophanes’ Birds extends well beyond any association of the nightingale with the official auletes of the production. Maintaining, contrary to some recent studies, that Procne is costumed with a beaked bird mask that is removed by Euelpides, the paper demonstrates that the removal of that mask is the final expression of an emergent mastery obtained by the human protagonists over the birds’ beaks, which are a focal point of costume interaction in the first half of the play.

Sudden death features rarely in the ancient sources: the Elder Pliny and Suetonius supply the most detailed testimonials. Most discussions of dying are philosophical in tone and promote an image of “prepared” death which considerably influenced the later Christian tradition. Five aspects of a Roman art of dying emerge, elements of which are paralleled in a more pragmatic sixth, the will. The sudden deaths in Pliny and Suetonius, however, may indicate a popular tradition in which absence of pain or fear overrode preparation. Closer examination of two of these suggests that features of both traditions might be combined to produce the “ideal” death.

This paper views the operation of the imperial cult in the Roman East as a dialogue, in which the initial offer of worship could be either accepted outright or modified by the recipient to his own purposes, and that response could affect how future petitions were presented. Roman judgements of which cities were most suitable to host their province’s imperial temples often led to intercity rivalry. Hellenic orators and Roman rulers both disparaged this rivalry, but their own evaluations of the relative worth of cities in fact encouraged it.

This paper will evaluate the degree to which, during the reigns of Philip II and Alexander III (an era which produced most of our evidence about Macedonian drinking), court symposia actually differed from those of southern Greece. It will argue that Macedonian drinking practices were distinctive in some significant respects and reflect upon the relationship between these drinking habits and the nature of Macedonian monarchy and elite culture. It will suggest that the “unmixed” quality of Macedonian elite culture was more than a mere construct of Demosthenes and other Greek authors.
