摘要

卡西乌斯-迪奥、奥古斯都本人和苏埃托尼乌斯关于奥古斯都银制雕像的叙述之间的差异最好从礼物债务和礼物交换的角度来解释,而不是仅仅关注崇拜。苏埃托尼乌斯和奥古斯都强调奥古斯都改正雕像是一种虔诚的行为,也是对帝国荣誉的一种宣示,而迪奥则忽略了荣誉和神灵,而是揭示了雕像是如何为修路提供资金的。在他的历史中,迪奥对叙事进行了调整,以强调事件的现实与表象之间的差距:这里是奥古斯都时期罗马用雕像换取金钱礼物的情况。奥古斯都将雕像视为礼物,将其转化为造福人民的更伟大的东西。雕像、道路和金钱之间的联系出现在前面两段叙述的其他地方,但只有迪奥将雕像换金钱的礼物交换与奥古斯都 "赠送 "道路联系在一起。

Statues, Roads, and Money
The differences between the narratives about Augustus’ silver statues in Cassius Dio, Augustus himself, and Suetonius are better explained in the context of gift-debt and gift-exchange rather than focusing on cult alone. Whereas Suetonius and Augustus emphasize Augustus’ correction of the statues as a pious act and a statement on imperial honors, Dio overlooks honors and gods, instead revealing how the statues funded road repairs. In his history, Dio adapts the narrative to underscore the gap between the reality and the appearance of events: here, the exchange of statues for monetary gifts in Augustan Rome. Augustus, treating the statues as a gift, transforms them into something greater for the people’s benefit. The connection between the statues, the roads, and the money appears elsewhere in the two earlier narratives, but Dio alone links the gift-exchange of statues for money to Augustus’ ‘gift’ of roads.

期刊介绍: Since its first appearance as a journal of textual criticism in 1852, Mnemosyne has secured a position as one of the leading journals in its field worldwide. Its reputation is built on the Dutch academic tradition, famous for its rigour and thoroughness. It attracts contributions from all over the world, with the result that Mnemosyne is distinctive for a combination of scholarly approaches from both sides of the Atlantic and the Equator. Its presence in libraries around the globe is a sign of its continued reputation as an invaluable resource for scholarship in Classical studies.
