Since Suetonius, Odes 4 has been the focus of much criticism and apology. Some explanation seems required for Odes 4’s apparent disunity and eclectic mixture of encomium with occasional pieces. My dissertation offers an interpretation of Book 4 by considering it in the light of the Mausoleum of Augustus. By considering the ways in which Horace builds evocations of the Mausoleum into book 4, I argue that there is sustained connection between the two works, which points towards a unified purpose for Odes 4: Horace is building a literary Mausoleum of Augustus. The first chapter establishes the justification for viewing Odes 4 through the lens of the material world by considering the functions of architecture and topography in Horace's models and contemporaries. After studying the ways the city of Rome is used by the Augustan poets and by Horace, the chapter concludes by making a case for understanding Odes 4 as a poetic monument. The second chapter studies the interrelationship between C.3.30 and the Mausoleum. First, I parse out a preliminary list of the Mausoleum's evocations. I then show how Horace evokes the Mausoleum in C.3.30 and recreates it in the poetic sphere. In chapter 3, I revisit Horace's autobiography and Suetonius's statements regarding the origin of Odes 4. I argue that the impetus of Odes 4 is not imperial compulsion but rather Horace's understanding of his own role as poet in the years following his selection by Augustus to compose the Carmen Saeculare. In chapter 4, I make the case for Odes 4 being a literary Mausoleum of Augustus. I first discuss the ways Horace builds his new poetic work upon the foundation of his earlier lyric successes. I then show how Horace uses the themes of time, death and the power of poetry as the brick and mortar of his literary mausoleum. I conclude by showing how Horace praises Augustus in ways that engage specifically with the Mausoleum by incorporating many of its evocations into this book. / text

This thesis examines accounts of the regal period in Cicero's de republica, Varro, Dionysius of Halicarnassus and Livy, as well as references to the period in Propertius IV and Ovid's Fasti. Cicero, Varro and Dionysius all present idealized accounts of the period, responding to the aetiological traditions concerning it, and making Rome's founders represent ideal originators, in different ways depending on the nature of their interests. Cicero acknowledges the problems of idealizing history, pointing to the influence of historical context on views of history. Dionysius' historiographical theories are examined, revealing a coherent theory in the light of which Dionysius' idealization can be seen as an informed attempt at an historical reconstruction. Livy too gives the regal period an originative function, to display in microcosm many themes important in later history. His interest in the origin of Rome's problems prevents him from idealizing the period. Instead he demonstrates political and social development under the kings which leads to a republic where the tensions of Rome's later history can be foreseen. Elegy had traditionally rejected history, but in Propertius IV history is included, much of it regal. Propertius establishes a particular relationship between the regal period and the elegist which is continued in Ovid's Fasti. Both poets reinterpret history, applying the self-conscious skill which had hitherto rejected historical material, and subverting expectations of the relationship of past to present. Ovid also displays kinship to themes of the Augustan revival, celebrating the present as the culmination of the past. The main unifying feature of all accounts is the dominance of the author's view of the present in shaping his version of history, stemming from the importance of the regal period as the period of Rome's origins. In the conclusion, these writings are placed within their Augustan context.

L’œuvre d’Ovide est composée au sortir d’une époque de profonds bouleversements sociaux, culturels et spatiaux. Sous Auguste qui réorganise l’Empire émerge une représentation de l’espace conçu comme un ensemble unifié. Les Métamorphoses proposent au lecteur un voyage dans le temps selon un axe chronologique immense, en même temps qu’un voyage dans l’espace, de la Grèce des débuts du monde à Rome et au monde entier. Elles peuvent s’interpréter comme une épopée sur l’espace, progressivement maîtrisé. Le poète sélectionne les lieux et les traits de géographie physique (fleuves, monts) et urbaine qui vont constituer l’armature ou l’arrière-plan d’un mythe. Ces lieux sont le plus souvent ceux des traditions mythiques grecques, les toponymes sont homériques ou alexandrins, mais Ovide se les approprie et réinterprète les représentations spatiales de ses prédécesseurs pour construire sa vision de l’espace ; en outre, il introduit dès la cosmogonie initiale des toponymes récents, ouvrant ainsi l’espace du poème à la géographie et à l’histoire universelles. Cette réécriture romaine des mythes s’inscrit dans un questionnement sur la culture et la citoyenneté romaines et met en lumière les rapports complexes qu’elle entretient avec la culture grecque. Ces rapports se jouent à l’échelle de chaque mythe, dès lors qu’un toponyme est mentionné, mais aussi à l’échelle du poème entier : les lieux sont mis en en réseau les uns avec les autres et ont une histoire qui se construit au fil des livres. Le poète fait ainsi coïncider géographie physique et géographie culturelle, nature et culture, en racontant la construction de l’espace par une collectivité qui est à la fois l’humanité entière et plus spécifiquement, le peuple romain, nourri de culture grecque. / Ovid’s Metamorphoses are written in an age of profound change. Not only does power evoluate in the hands of the Princeps, but also space: the new management of the provinciae and the reorganization of the City make it possible to conceive the geographical space of Empire as united. The poem echoes these transformations by introducing heroes who travel all over the world. The wide range of places and countries seems to match with the enormous temporal scope announced in the poem. The poem can be seen as an epos on space : space is progressively dominated, from the beginning of humanity to the reign of Rome. In each myth, Ovid selects the places, the rivers, mountains or cities he needs, abiding by mythical traditions and cultural representations : toponyms are borrowed from Homer or the Alexandrian poets ; but simultaneously he revitalizes them : he constructs his vision of geographical space and spatial organization. As early as the first cosmogony, he introduces toponyms which had been known only very recently in latin, thus opening his poem to universal geography and history. By transposing Greek myth in Roman space, the poet deals with cultural identity, in a time when Roman culture was undergoing a metamorphosis. He insists on the Greek roots of Roman culture and simultaneously projects it on a wider, universal scale. Places have a history, progressively revealed in each book. By setting myths in a web where each place has its own significance but also is better understood when related to the other, he constructs a space which is both natural and cultural, and a history of humanity and of Greco-Roman identity.

O presente exercício reflexivo visa fazer uma análise do papel político desempenhado por César Augusto durante a construção, a consolidação e a legitimação do sistema político do Principado romano. Tomaremos como base analítica os discursos e as ações de Augusto na cena política romana em prol da restauração da República. Para tanto, propomo-nos abordar o modo como o príncipe se apropriou da artimanha de construção dos estereótipos de seus rivais, Marco Antônio e Cleópatra, no intuito de elevar sua própria posição na cena política romana. A forma como ele se utilizou de discursos do eu e do outro permeia nosso olhar, sobretudo com relação ao mundo oriental que serviu como elemento num plano discursivo e prático de difamação de seus rivais e de apresentação deles como uma ameaça à República romana, a qual ele pretendia salvaguardar e elevar aos melhores tempos. / This reflective exercise aims to analyze the political role performed by Caesar Augustus during the construction, consolidation and the legitimacy of the political system of the Roman Principality. We will take as analytical basis the discourses and actions of Augustus in the Roman political scene on behalf of restoration of the Republic. Therefore, we propose to board the way how the Prince appropriated the trick of construction of stereotypes of his rivals, Marc Antony and Cleopatra, in order to raise his own position in the Roman political scene. The way he used speeches of me and other permeates our gaze, especially concerning the Eastern world that served as an element in a discursive and practical plan to defamation his rivals and their presentation as a threat to the Roman Republic, which he intended to safeguard and raise the best times.

Para isto, selecionamos a obra de Veléio Patérculo, História Romana (séculos I a.C. – I d.C.), as biografias de Plutarco de Queronéia, César e Antônio (séculos I e II d.C.), as biografias de Caio Suetônio Tranquilo, O Divino Júlio e o Divino Augusto (séculos I e II d.C.), os escritos de Lúcio Anneu Floro, Epítome de Tito Lívio (séculos I e II d.C.), e, por fim, a obra de Dion Cássio, História Romana(século II e III d.C.). Através desse corpus documental, torna-se possível uma comparação entre as imagens discursivas sobre esse imperador Júlio-Claudiano, imagens estas que foram elaboradas em contextos diferentes, através de abordagens distintas e, em nossa concepção, partindo de múltiplas motivações destes autores. Ainda, faz-se possível compreender como as figuras de Júlio César e Marco Antônio são utilizadas nessas criações sobre Augusto, sendo que o primeiro passa a representar o modelo a ser seguindo; enquanto o segundo, a sua antítese. Nesta análise, partimos do pressuposto que os elementos da sociedade do Principado Romano não são homogêneos e que as diferenças entre os relatos, assim como as similaridades, também nos levam à legitimação da estrutura política do Principado Romano. / In this new academic trajectory, we propose to analyze the discursive images of Augustus in Biographies and Histories of the Roman Principality , between centuries I BC to III AD. For this, we selected the work of Velleius Paterculus, Roman History (centuries I BC to I AD), the Plutarch biographies, Caesar and Antony (first and second centuries AD), the Suetonius biographies, The Divine Julius and The Divine Augustus (first and second centuries AD), the writings of Lucius Florus, Epitome of Titus Livy (first and second centuries AD), and finally, the Dion Cassius work, Roman History (II and III century AD). Through his documentary corpus, it becomes possible to compare the discursive images of Julio-Claudian Emperor, which images have been developed in different contexts, through different approaches and, in our view, from multiple motivations of these authors. Still, it is possible to understand how the figures of Julius Caesar and Mark Antony are used in these creations of Augustus, the first of which happens to represent the model to be followed, while the second, its antithesis. In this analysis, we assume that the elements of Roman society in the Principality are not homogeneous and that the differences between the accounts, as well as the similarities, also lead us to the legitimacy of the political structure of the Roman Principality. / FAPESP: 2012/12975-3

Após abordar sua formação artística, o trabalho enfoca a permanência forçada de Earle por nove meses na remota Ilha de Tristão da Cunha, quando seu estilo se torna mais sombrio e apresenta aspectos da estética do Sublime, tornando-se mais próximo das obras de grandes pintores românticos como Turner, Constable e Friedrich. É estudada também a atuação de Earle durante sua primeira passagem pelo Brasil, país que visitou duas vezes, sendo que na segunda passagem, esteve inclusive na condição de artista oficial da expedição do HMS Beagle, que também contou com Charles Darwin como naturalista a bordo. A produção brasileira do pintor é analisada e aproximada das obras de Debret e Rugendas que datam do mesmo período. Também se comentam as obras produzidas durante o período passado na Austrália e Nova Zelândia, que levaram o nome de Earle a alcançar alguma importância na História da Arte destes países. ______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / This study explores the life and works of the English painter Augustus Earle (1793-1838), focusing mostly on the almost ten years period he spent travelling in South America and Oceania. Firstly we discuss his formative years. Later, we assess his nine month long forced stay in the remote island of Tristan da Cunha. During this period, his style became darker and he started to show aspects of the Sublime aesthetics, more similar to the works of great romantic painters like Turner, Constable and Friedrich. We also study Earle’s activities in Brazil, country which he visited twice including the time when he was part of the HMS Beagle expedition, which also included Charles Darwin in the role of onboard naturalist. Analyses of his Brazilian production show how they approach works by Debret and Rugendas from the same period. We also comment on works produced in the period he spent in Australia and New Zealand, which gave Earle´s name some importance in the History of Arts in these countries.

Your manual, that showing concepts and themes that we currently divide between astrology and astronomy, bring us an organizacional comprehension of the heavenly bodies, beyond an explanation about the relationship between them. This relations not only cover the portion that we understand as Heaven, but also influence in the elaboration and action of the earthly life, or, in other words, stars and humans are interconnected by an infinite relation web. In that case, we understand this work from some key points: 1- the structure of Manílio’s work, his public and the knowledge gained; 2- the comprehension about stoic philosophy (or, an approximation of what it was), in seeking to understand the choice of your utilization and, 3- the understanding of the Manílio’s time, the Empire of Otávio Augusto. This division was made in order to make this dissertation intelligible for those who have the intention of studying this period – already too much discussed – from a new look. The manilian astrology, confirmed by the utilisation of the Stoicism, explains this roman world of the first century with an intention of establish a conquest harmony for those who crossed a period of destabilization marked by constants Civil Wars. / Marco Manílio, escritor do I século d.C., estrutura, a partir de sua obra intitulada Astronômicas, o universo. Seu manual, que aborda conceitos e temas que atualmente dividimos entre astrologia e astronomia, nos traz uma compreensão organizacional dos corpos celestes, além de uma explanação acerca das relações existentes entre eles. Tais relações não abrangem somente a porção que compreendemos como Céu, mas também influenciam na elaboração e ação da vida terrena, ou seja, astros e homens estão interligados por uma teia de relações infinitas. Sendo assim, visamos entender a obra maniliana a partir de alguns pontos-chave: 1- a estrutura da obra, seu público e o conhecimento apreendido; 2- a compreensão da filosofia estóica (ou uma tentativa de aproximação do que isto seria), na busca de entendermos o porquê de sua utilização e; 3- o entendimento do período no qual Manílio estava inserido, o Principado de Otávio Augusto. Esta divisão foi feita a fim de tornar o trabalho inteligível àqueles que possuem a intenção de estudar um período – já tão discutido – a partir de um novo olhar. A astrologia maniliana, confirmada pela utilização do Estoicismo, explica este mundo romano do século I com uma intenção de estabelecer uma harmonia quista por aqueles que atravessavam um período de desestabilidade marcado pelas constantes Guerras Civis.
