The Ab Urbe Condita Construction In Latin, Otto William Heick

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

That type of the participial construction which has been the main object of the present investigation is known among English-speaking scholars by the name of the "ab urbe candita construction." This designation is derived from one of the outstanding examples of the type of expression in view. Ab urbe candita, "from the year of the founding of the city": thus the Romans were accustomed to reckon their chronology. The current name of this syntactical phenomenon, which is at once too vague and too narrow, might be misleading. The field of the construction is limited neither to a prepositional …

Tragic Episodes In The “Aeneid” Of Virgil, Ruth Shoemaker

Bachelors’ Theses

Tragedy is an imitation of an action that is serious, entire and of a certain magnitude and effecting through pity and terror a proper catharsis of the emotions. There is agitation of the emotions but also a purgation of them. Unity is derived from a central figure rather than from the structural form. The successful writer of tragedy wins sympathy at the end for the man who was great before he succumbed to his flaws. Where the action is real and serious and there is no chance of escape there is tragedy.

The Relation Of Horace To Augustus, Harry Stanley Perla

Bachelors’ Theses

The topic of this thesis was selected after reading various criticisms of Augustus as written by authors of the last decade. Though not treated as comprehensively as other phases of Horace's life, this topic nevertheless is another method of studying and criticizing Horace. The relation of Horace to Augustus is illustrated in the very writings of Horace and therefore the topic has a close connection with the writings of the poet. Because of this connection, and because of its interest, this topic was chosen.

Ideas Of Mmortality Found In Roman Poets, Norma Lippert

Bachelors’ Theses

A discussion of Roman ideas on immortality is necessarily linked with a consideration of Greek thoughts on the subject. For, from as early as the second century before Christ, the Romans were influenced not only by Greek customs, but also by Greek philosophy. The introduction of certain philosophical ideas filled a real need in Roman life, since the Roman religion had hitherto, basically, been a worship of numina which protected the family and the State. After the Punic Wars, when Rome felt outside influences strongly, people required a more individual religion.

Wordsworth's God In Nature, Arnold Graham Walter

Bachelors’ Theses

In this thesis on Wordsworth's God in Nature, I have endeavored to show how the poet through communion with Nature in all its forms was brought into closer relation with the Supreme Being. I have not called him a Pantheist and do not think him such in the strict sense of the word. In my opinion he looked upon God as the beneficent Giver of all that is good in Nature. He believed that Nature was man's best teacher, and that through a knowledge of its ways man could not help but be brought to a fuller understanding of the …

Comparison Of Virgil's And Dante's Inferno, Marjorie B. Roedel

Bachelors’ Theses

This thesis fs devoted · entirely to a comparison of the Aeneid VI of Virgil and the Inferno of Dante. Many authors have stated points of similarity, but much research has failed to uncover any published work which makes such a comparison the whole subject of discussion. The quotations, cited in this thesis, are taken from the Aeneid, both Latin and English versions, from a translation of the Inferno, and from the works listed in the bibliography. Many books supplied helps and hints; but special indebtedness must be acknowledged to the World Review of October 4, 1926, which suggested the …
