Extractions: RETOUR À LENTRÉE DU SITE ALLER A LA TABLE DES MATIERES DE JUSTIN HISTOIRE UNIVERSELLE DE JUSTIN INTRODUCTION Pour la plupart des détails relatifs à la vie et à l'ouvrage de notre auteur, nous renvoyons aux deux morceaux qui suivent cette introduction : l'on y retrouvera, approuvés ou combattus, les jugements de Vossius, de Fabricius, de Rollin, de l'abbé Paul, de Mably, de La Harpe, de Sainte-Croix, du président Hénault, quoique leurs noms n'y soient pas rappelés et attachés aux opinions qu'ils ont soutenues. Justin a été très diversement jugé. La lecture de son livre est sans fruit, selon plus d'un critique, et l'abréviateur Hénault va même jusqu'à traiter son devancier de ver rongeur de l'histoire, qui n'en a laissé que les lambeaux . D'autres, au contraire, ont su gré à notre historien de promener son lecteur de siècle en siècle, de nation en nation, et de tracer seulement une esquisse rapide des révolutions et des moeurs : ils trouvent à la fois, dans son ébauche, de la variété, du naturel et de l'éclat. Ces contradictions s'expliquent, comme la plupart des dissentiments sur les productions de l'esprit, par la différence des points de vue, et par la préoccupation qui cache tour-à-tour à des esprits prévenus ou les défauts ou les mérites d'un même ouvrage.

Extractions: CICERO , the name of two families of ancient Rome. It may perhaps be derived from cicer (pulse), in which case it would be analogous to such names as Lentulus, Tubero, Piso. Of one family, of the plebeian Claudian gens, only a single member, Gaius Claudius Cicero, tribune in 454 B.C., is known. The other family was a branch of the Tullii, settled from an ancient period at Arpinum. This family, four of whose members are noticed specially below, did not achieve more than municipal eminence until the time of M. Tullius Cicero, the great orator. of his life, the death of Tullia, his beloved daughter. He shortly afterwards divorced Publilia, who had been jealous of Tullias influence and proved unsympathetic. To solace his troubles he devoted himself wholly to literature. To this period belong several famous rhetorical and philosophical works, the Brutus, Orator, Partitiones Oratoriae, Paradoxa, A cadeinica, de Finibus, Tusculan Disputatious, together with other works now lost, such as his Laus Catonis, Consolatio and Hortensius. Works.The literary works of Cicero may be classed as (I) rhetorical; (2) oratorical; (3) philosophical and political; (4) epistolary.

Extractions: Jim Fournier, December 1996 Mircea Eliade's subtitle refers to Mysteries of Birth and Rebirth, but we might also recognize in these words a theme which could be more explicitly described as death and spiritual rebirth . I believe that this is a more accurate elucidation of the theme which pervades all of the ancient mysteries, in one form or another. While the theme of spiritual death and rebirth is explicitly apparent throughout the mysteries, I believe that this theme also implies a larger process pervading this period of history: the emergence of the individual human identity. The mysteries may actually have caused this phenomenon, as the individual soul was forged in the experience of spiritual death and rebirth. At the very least the mysteries may be seen as the first, and most profound expression of the ingression of individual identity into the western mind. Eliade The earliest illustration of the first theme may be found in Eliade's own work on initiation and shamanism. We first encounter symbolic death in the context of the initiation of boys into manhood. The boys' childhood identity must die so that they may be reborn as men in the community. This process almost universally involves a ritual in which the initiate must feel the terror of an encounter with death, frequently combined with the imprint of intense physical pain, by circumcision or through having a tooth knocked out.1 While such rites of passage do to some degree constitute a secret (from the women and young boys) initiation, they are more concerned with acculturation into society than with true spiritual initiation.

Make a donation using Paypal: Back to History of Astrology page http://www.astrology.com/imppla.html Towards the end of the 3rd century BC Greek drama and literature began to seriously interest the Romans. At first, astrology crept in at the lower end of the social scale: while the intelligentsia were enjoying Greek plays and poems, hoi polloi was fascinated by the crowds of fortune-tellers making their way - as quacks always will - towards a new source of easy money. But it was not long before, at first out of an interest in astronomy, intelligent Romans learned about the Greek preoccupation with the influence of the planets on humanity. By the 1st century BC, Cicero, always sceptical about astrology, took it seriously enough to summarize it without irony in his De divinatione:
