The nine volumes of the "Romanian Music Chronicle", printed by the Music Publishing Hause, Bucharest, in 20 years (1973-1991) are the fruit of an extremely elaborated investigation, that broke all the walls that tried to hide this real patrimony of spirituality. The author, Octavian Lazar Cosma, shouldered the responsibility of a difficult cultural mission to establish the main points of the Romanian music evolution during these two millennia.

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.

This dissertation is a diplomatic transcription edition and an analysis of BL Cotton Caligula Aii with emphasis on the Middle English romances in the manuscript and how the entire manuscript was compiled to teach lessons in obedience. The first section of the manuscript contains Sir Eglamour and teaches lessons in social obedience. The second section features three romances by Thomas Chestre: Octavian Imperator, Sir Launfal, and Lybeaus Desconus and teaches courtly and chivalric obedience. Section three features Emaré and teaches lessons in obedience and free will. The final section contains Sege of Jerusalem. Chevalier Assigne, and Sir Isumbras and focuses on obedience and the direct hand of God. The romances in CCAii, which have often been dismissed as overly simplistic or convention, become complex and meaningful text when they are analyzed as part of the compilation for which they were chosen and arranged.

Cette thèse montre qu’il y a lieu de s’interroger sur l’extension et les différentes phases de construction de la première résidence augustéenne du Palatin et en particulier sur une partie de celle-ci: la maison de Livie. Actuellement, j'ai établi quatre phases de construction pour la Maison de Livie, la première peut être datée aux alentours de 70 av. J.-C. en raison des similitudes entre le type de ses murs et ceux des substructions du théâtre de Pompée, construit entre 61 et 55 av. J.-C. et aussi à cause d’une estampille de tuile trouvée dans la substruction du complexe sud-est, datée par Margareta Steinby autour de 79 av. J.-C en raison des vestiges souterrains, je suppose l'existence au premier étage, aujourd’hui disparu, d'un oecus corinthius du côté sud-est et d'une basilique du côté nord-ouest du bâtiment. Les trois autres phases relèvent de l’initiative d’Auguste, qui a acheté plusieurs maisons sur la colline de Palatin afin de construire un complexe résidentiel sur le modèle des palais hellénistiques. Les peintures de la Maison de Livie datées auparavant d'environ 30 av. J.-C. sont datées actuellement au tour de 40 avant J.-C. par Eugenio La Rocca qui a démontré que la maison avait été construite et décorée beaucoup plus tôt. Selon son hypothèse, la « rupture » stylistique entre la première phase et la deuxième phase du second style peut être attribuée à la présence de Cléopâtre à Rome entre 46 et 44 av. J.-C. La reine était très probablement accompagnée d'artistes travaillant pour elle dans les ateliers royaux d'Alexandrie. Il est donc probable que l'élite romaine aurait reproduit les styles et les goûts de César et de Cléopâtre. / This thesis show that there is cause to question the extension and the different construction phases of the House of Augustus and in particular, of a part of it, the House of Livia as recently Irene Iacopi and Giovanna Tedone published an important paper about the accuracy of dating of the construction phases in the Augustan palace. Currently I established four construction phases for the House of Livia, the first one can be dated around 70 B.C. because of the similarities between the type of its walls and the ones of Pompey’s theatre, built between 61 and 55 B.C. and also because of a tile’s stamp found in the substructure of the south-east complex, dated by Margareta Steinby around 79 B.C. Because of the underground remains I suppose the existence at the first floor, actually destroyed, of an oecus corinthius in the south-east side and a basilica in the north-west side of the building. The three more phases should have been linked to Augustus, who bought several houses on the Palatin hill in order to build a Hellenistic palace styled complex. La Rocca demonstrated that the decoration of the House of Livia started from 40 BC due to the presence of Cleopatra near Rome between 46 and 44 BC. The queen very probably was accompanied by artists working for her in the royal Alexandrian workshops. It is likely, therefore, that the Roman elite would have replicated the styles and tastes of Caesar and Cleopatra

This dissertation aims to focus on the way in which Marc Antony has been portrayed in Antiquity by a careful and critical study of what the ancient (mainly literary) sources have to reveal about this historical personage. A number of primary sources present a very negative view of Antony under the influence of various political persuasions, and this will be compared and contrasted with later ancient views. The study will pursue this under key themes such as the personality of Antony, his military and political career as well as the role that he played in the East. Modern scholarly interpretations of Antony’s character and actions will also be brought into the discussion, so that an objective evaluation of the contribution which Antony has made to the history of the Roman Republic, insofar as objectivity is possible, may be arrived at. / Language Services / M.A. (with specialisation in Ancient Languages and Cultures)

The diploma thesis deals with the life and reign of Augustus, the first Roman emperor from the Julian-Claudian dynasty, and compares it to the only one television film about this historical figure. In the opening chapter, the author analyses the history of the Roman Empire from 133 BC to the death of Gaius Iulius Caesar in 44 BC. The other part of the thesis deals with the life and the reign of Augustus who influenced the Roman Empire for several decades. The third and the fourth chapter are devoted to the analysis of the historical film Imperium: Augustus and its comparison with the primary and secondary literature. The last chapter deals with applying the sequences of this historical film in history classes in schools.
