This report examines the sectarian backdrop for Galen of Pergamum's medical epistemology. It considers the justificatory role that experience (empeiria) and theoretical accounts (logoi) play in Empiricist and Dogmatist epistemology in an attempt to track how Galen incorporates experience into theoretical accounts as a means by which to undergird them. Finally, it briefly considers the exiguous evidence for Methodism, Galen's main medical rivals in the Roman world and claims that Galen forges a middle path between these sects. / text

Ce travail consiste en une édition critique de la cinquième mise en prose du Roman de Troie de Benoît de Sainte-Maure, dont on a conservé quinze manuscrits, et qui aurait été composée au début du XIVe siècle, peut-être à Naples. Cette mise en prose présente deux particularités par rapport aux quatre autres connues, qui constituent les deux axes d'études de l'introduction du texte. Elle ne forme pas d'une part un texte autonome, mais la section troyenne d'une compilation d'histoire antique, l'Histoire ancienne jusqu'à César dans sa deuxième rédaction, et s'inscrit donc dans la réception de ce texte ; il s'agit, d'autre part, autant que d'une mise en prose, d'une compilation, qui utilise deux des mises en prose antérieures et dont on a étudié les modes d'écriture et de réécriture. L'édition est également accompagnée d'une étude linguistique, d'un glossaire et d'un index des noms propres. / This work is a critical edition of the fifth version of the Roman de Troie by Benoît de Sainte-Maure, which can be found in fifteen manuscripts and was composed at the beginning of the fourteenth century, perhaps in Naples. This prose version has two caracteristics which make it stand apart from the other four, and which form the basis of the introductional study of the text. On the one hand, the prose version is not an autonomous text, but the Trojan section of a compilation of Antique history, the Histoire ancienne jusqu'à César in its second version, whose reception must be studied ; on the other hand, this prose version is as much a work of compilation which uses two of the previous prose version as an adptation in prose, and the ways in which the author has written and rewritten the story has been studied. The edition is followed by a linguistic study, a glossary and an index of proper names.

Par sa différence et par sa similitude, l’homme à la peau foncée interpelle les anciens qui, dès les savants grecs, ont voulu trouver des raisons géographiques et climatiques, c’est-à-dire ‘scientifiques’, à son altérité. C’est le monde romain antique qui a été choisi comme cadre du présent travail. On y utilise un corpus de textes littéraires, historiques et philosophiques latins, considérés dans un éventail chronologique large (du IIe s. av. J.-C. au Ve s. ap. J.-C.), sans s’interdire éventuellement la comparaison avec les référents grecs. Le travail s’appuie sur une démarche lexicologique, avec l’étude des mots latins de couleur et de leurs connotations, pour mener une enquête sur les interactions entre l’évocation de la couleur de peau ‘autre’ et les concepts sociaux, philosophiques, religieux du monde romain antique. On cherche quels sont les hommes à la peau foncée avec lesquels les Romains ont été en contact, qui sont venus dans la Ville, et quelle place ils y ont tenue, restreinte entre quelles limites et vouée à quelles fonctions, avec quel impact sur leur nouvel environnement — et sur eux-mêmes. On sollicite aussi, le cas échéant, la documentation iconographique. On explore le domaine de la littérature patristique, dans laquelle l’homme à la peau foncée occupe une certaine place, et l’on cherche à caractériser la dimension symbolique qu’il acquiert chez les premiers écrivains chrétiens. On retient de manière critique les apports des spécialistes précédents qui se sont occupés de la question (F. M. Snowden, L. S. Senghor), en tenant compte de la difficulté qu’éprouvent des modernes à s’abstraire de leur propre univers culturel, conceptuel et intellectuel pour étudier ces réalités du contact entre gens à la couleur de peau différente dans le monde romain de l’Antiquité. / By its difference and its similarity, the man with the dark skin appeals to the elders who, from the Greek scientists, wanted to find geographical and climatic reasons, that is to say “scientific reasons”, to his otherness. It is the ancient Roman world that was chosen as the framework of this research. A corpus of literary, historical and philosophical Latin texts is used in a wide chronological range (from the 2nd century BC to the 5th century AD), however, in comparison with the Greek referents. The work is based on a lexicological approach, with the study of the Latin words of color and their different connotations, to investigate the interactions between evocation of skin color 'other' and social, philosophical, religious of the ancient Roman world. What are the dark-skinned men with whom the Romans came in contact, who came to the city, and what place they held, restricted between what limits and what functions, with what impact on their new environment - and on themselves. If necessary, the iconographic documentation is also requested. The field of patristic literature is explored, in which the dark-skinned man occupies a certain place, and we try to characterize the symbolic dimension that he acquires in the early Christian writers. The contributions of the foregoing experts (Fr. M Snowden Jr., L. S Senghor) are critically taken into account, taking into account the difficulty experienced by moderns in abstracting from their own cultural, conceptual and intellectual study these realities of contact between people with different skin color in the Roman world of antiquity.

(como Plauto, César, Cícero, Quintiliano, Sêneca, Vitrúvio, entre outros). Embora não tratem especificamente do tema, os textos selecionados deixam transparecer certas impressões dos romanos a respeito da música e podem ajudar a montar pelo menos parte do cotidiano musical dessa civilização. A partir dos excertos, discutimos o funcionamento e a utilização dos instrumentos musicais na guerra, na mitologia e nas práticas religiosas, bem como tecemos breves comentários sobre a tradução proposta modernamente para os nomes desses instrumentos. Por fim, analisamos a presença da música no teatro de Plauto, através do estudo de excertos das peças do autor que mostram os músicos em ação ou que expressam a opinião das personagens acerca deles e de breves apontamentos sobre questões referentes à musicalidade das falas das personagens / Abstract: This work presents some considerations about music in Ancient Rome, drawing upon excerpts of works by various Roman authors from the second century B.C. to the second century A.D. (such as Cicero, Quintilian, Julius Caesar, Seneca, Vitruvius, and Plautus, among others), who, although not always specifically treating music, reveal in their writing distinctive impressions about music held by Romans, and which, in turn, can help us in the attempt to reconstruct at least part of everyday musical practices of this civilization. From the excerpts, it is possible to identify the operational features of the musical instruments found in war, mythology and worship, and, consequently, to comment briefly on the modern translations put forward for designating these instruments. Lastly, we analyze the presence of music in the dramaturgy of Plautus, through excerpts from his plays which reveal musicians in action, or which express the characters' opinions about them, thereby revealing some interesting questions about musicality in the words of his characters / Mestrado / Linguistica / Mestre em Linguística
