[Up: Flaubert] MBov Salam SentimE ... [home] Polybius on the Mercenaries War Jorn Barger September 2002 For before either could get the better of the other, though the struggle in this place lasted for another two years, the war had been decided by other means. Such then was the condition of affairs at Eryx and as far as regarded land forces. We may compare the spirit displayed by both states to that of game cocks engaged in a death-struggle. For we often see that when these birds have lost the use of their wings from exhaustion, their courage remains as high as ever and they continue to strike blow upon blow, until closing involuntarily they get a deadly hold of each other, and as soon as this happens one or the other of the two will soon fall dead. So the Romans and Carthaginians, worn out by their exertions owing to the continual fighting, at length began to be despairing, their strength paralysed and their resources exhausted by protracted taxation and expense. The Carthaginians to give up to the Romans all prisoners without ransom. The Carthaginians to pay to the Romans by instalments in twenty years two thousand two hundred Euboean talents." But when these terms were referred to Rome, the people did not accept the treaty, but sent ten commissioners to examine the matter. On their arrival they made no substantial changes in the terms, but only slight modifications rendering them more severe for Carthage: for they reduced the term of payment by one half, added a thousand talents to the indemnity, and demanded the evacuation by the Carthaginians of all islands lying between Sicily and Italy.

V Jolt Country Main Page Video Games Features Reviews From Trotting Krips ... JC BBS Polybius The Polybius Home Page Perhaps you are aware of the concept of the "urban legend." You're on the Internet, of course you know what an urban legend is. Arcade games have one big one: the game Polybius. What's the game like? Coinop.org explains: "This game had a very limited release, one or two backwater arcades in a suburb of Portland. The history of this game is cloudy, there were all kinds of strange stories about how kids who played it got amnesia afterwards, couldn't remember their name or where they lived, etc. "The bizarre rumors about this game are that it was supposedly developed by some kind of weird military tech offshoot group, used some kind of proprietary behavior modification algorithms developed for the CIA or something, kids who played it woke up at night screaming, having horrible nightmares. "According to an operator who ran an arcade with one of these games, guys in black coats would come to collect "records" from the machines. They're not interested in quarters or anything, they just collected information about how the game was played. "The game was weird looking, kind of abstract, fast action with some puzzle elements, the kids who played it stopped playing games entirely, one of them became a big anti videogame crusader or something. We've contacted one person who met him, and he claims the machines disappeared after a month or so and no one ever heard about them again. "

63. Polybius And The Modern State Readers of Hoppe s Democracy The God that Failed would recognise polybius s description of the demise of the republic of the free http://www.lewrockwell.com/corrigan/corrigan11.html

Polybius and the Modern State by Sean Corrigan In the VIth Book of his Histories , written to explain Rome's rise to what today's geopolitical inarticulates would term "hyperpowerdom"' or "full spectrum dominance," the Greek statesman and historian, Polybius, outlined his theory of the cycle of political revolution. In his schema, there successively arose three "good" forms of government – kingship, aristocracy, and democracy – only for each to succumb to corruption and for its ensuing realization in its perverted form – respectively tyranny, oligarchy (Rockerfellerdom?), and ochlocracy, or mob rule – to be overthrown by the benign phase of the next. In his progression, successively more people shared power as a safeguard against abuse until the degeneracy of democracy again led to conditions auspicious for the acceptance of the "Fuehrerpinzip." Readers of Hoppe's Democracy: The God that Failed would recognise Polybius's description of the demise of the republic of the free: Thus the only hope still surviving unimpaired is in themselves, and to this they resort, making the state a democracy instead of an oligarchy and assuming the responsibility for the conduct of affairs.

Polybius From Wikiquote Jump to: navigation search Polybius [Î Î¿Î»Ï Î²Î¹Î¿Ï‚] (c. 203 BC - 120 BC) was a Greek historian edit Sourced Since the masses of the people are inconstant, full of unruly desires, passionate, and reckless of consequences, they must be filled with fears to keep them in order. The ancients did well, therefore, to invent gods, and the belief in punishment after death. As quoted in The Fine Art of Baloney Detection by Carl Sagan from The Demon-Haunted World edit The Histories This is a sworn treaty made between us, Hannibal ... and Xenophanes the Athenian ... in the presence of all the gods who possess Macedonia and the rest of Greece. Histories, VII, 9, 4 (Loeb, W.R. Paton) How highly should we honor the Macedonians, who for the greater part of their lives never cease from fighting with the barbarians for the sake of the security of Greece? For who is not aware that Greece would have constantly stood in the greater danger, had we not been fenced by the Macedonians and the honorable ambition of their kings? Histories, IX, 35, 2

Polybius, Tyche and Causality in Historical Explanation [Note: There are some formatting issues that still need to be attended to]  Polybius aitia is in fact a tripartite composed of the elements prophasis , the ostensible grounds for war, the bona fide cause, and of arche , the initial action of a given war. Walbank draws the distinction between aitiai not aitia of the war between Rome and the Aetolians. We should note that Polybius did not always invoke his tripartite scheme of aitiai must be causal tyche Historians working from authenticated sources (documents, artifacts, speeches, eyewitnesses etc.) which survive in the present, from a no longer extant past, trying to comprehend the character of these unspecified outcomes of antecedent events to which they are significantly related, is an inherently “’inferential“’ enquiry. There is no appeal to a Hempelian deductive-nomological explanation. Those who seek such an explanation are in fact as Oakeshott (1983: ) points out engaged in a completely different sort of enquiry. Their purpose is to deduce the occurrence of an already specified kind of event alleged to have happened by relating it to the occurrence of already aitia aitiai as whatever total tyche pragmatike historia tyche is not quite so banal.

As is often happening nowadays, I'm piling up GameSetLinks so efficiently that I need to spit them out in a couple of discrete lumps. This set deals with high-brow interviews, CIA arcade game abductions, and all kinds of other craziness: - New blog The Brainy Gamer (stop boasting, there!) has posted a swift interview with gaming academic Mark J. P. Wolf , who has written a number of earlier books about the video game medium, and is soon debuting 'The Video Game Explosion: A History from PONG to PlayStation and Beyond'. Wolf talks about the state of game studies, and also offers some randomly fun 'playing now' game tips: "I would actually recommend some older games from the 1970s or 1980s, games like First Star's Spy vs Spy, or M.U.L.E." - GSW has been semi-obsessed with Polybius for a good while now - it's a mythical early '80s arcade machine that was allegedly an experimental creation (including horrible side effects) of the 'men in black' - so thanks to TIGSource for pointing out that some crazy people have recreated the 'urban legend' : "This game really did kind of screw up my vision after a few playthroughs, so I would strongly suggest playing in moderation."
