  roman proverbs: The Moral Sayings of Publius Syrus: a Roman Slave Publius Syrus, 2016-07-27 Part Stoic, part Epicurean, and even part Skeptic and Cynic, the wit and wisdom of the former Roman slave turned playwright Publius Syrus transcends doctrine and embraces humanism. The dramatic works of Syrus are all but lost - what remains is a collection of over a thousand one-line quotations known as 'The Moral Sayings of Publius Syrus: A Roman Slave.'With a brevity and insight that would make Oscar Wilde proud, Syrus summarizes an astonishing range of human emotions in his memorable epigrams.

  roman proverbs: Historic Proverbs Explored Amelia Khatri, AI, 2025-02-18 Historic Proverbs Explored examines how proverbs encapsulate enduring wisdom, tracing their origins and relevance across cultures. The book explores fundamental truths about human nature and society through these concise sayings. Proverbs, often originating from diverse locations, surprisingly reflect shared human experiences, such as love and adversity. Furthermore, these sayings play a crucial role in transmitting cultural values and beliefs across generations, acting as a window into the past. The book argues that proverbs are living repositories of collective wisdom that continue to offer guidance. Structured in three sections, it first introduces proverbs and their significance. The second section delves into thematic categories like family and morality, analyzing their historical context and cultural variations. Finally, the book consolidates its findings, highlighting common threads across cultures and demonstrating their relevance in the 21st century, using practical examples to illustrate their real-world application. By understanding the historical and cultural context, readers gain a deeper appreciation of their enduring relevance.

  roman proverbs: Jesus, Rhetoric and Law Henderson, 2021-09-06 This study locates pre-gospel orality and gospel literacy within Greco-Roman rhetorical norms for education and performance. Heavy use of a few basic rhetorical conventions marks the gospel tradition as a marginal yet rhetorically competent attempt to create a Christian public. The book identifies gnomic sayings as the thickest available sample of gospel rhetorics, an alternative to samples based on chreia and parable. Gnome-use is central throughout ancient rhetorical theory and practice. Gnome is therefore an especially good focus for comparative study, particularly of characterisation and legal topicality. This work establishes a credible model of interaction among the speech-habits of Jesus, those of early Christian oral tradition, and the innovative rhetorics of gospel and epistolary texts. The plurality of rhetorical-criticisms current in New Testament studies is also addressed.

  roman proverbs: Illiterate Geography in Classical Athens and Rome Daniela Dueck, 2020-11-26 This study is devoted to the channels through which geographic knowledge circulated in classical societies outside of textual transmission. It explores understanding of geography among the non-elites, as opposed to scholarly and scientific geography solely in written form which was the province of a very small number of learned people. It deals with non-literary knowledge of geography, geography not derived from texts, as it was available to people, educated or not, who did not read geographic works. This main issue is composed of two central questions: how, if at all, was geographic data available outside of textual transmission and in contexts in which there was no need to write or read? And what could the public know of geography? In general, three groups of sources are relevant to this quest: oral communications preserved in writing; public non-textual performances; and visual artefacts and monuments. All of these are examined as potential sources for the aural and visual geographic knowledge of Greco-Roman publics. This volume will be of interest to anyone working on geography in the ancient world and to those studying non-elite culture.

  roman proverbs: Rome: An Empire of Many Nations Jonathan J. Price, Margalit Finkelberg, Yuval Shahar, 2022-04-21 The center of gravity in Roman studies has shifted far from the upper echelons of government and administration in Rome or the Emperor's court to the provinces and the individual. The multi-disciplinary studies presented in this volume reflect the turn in Roman history to the identities of ethnic groups and even single individuals who lived in Rome's vast multinational empire. The purpose is less to discover another element in the Roman Empire's 'success' in governance than to illuminate the variety of individual experience in its own terms. The chapters here, reflecting a wide spectrum of professional expertise, range across the many cultures, languages, religions and literatures of the Roman Empire, with a special focus on the Jews as a test-case for the larger issues. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

  roman proverbs: An Analysis of Gender and Ethnic Prejudices in Erasmus's Adagia and Other Writings Nathan Ron, 2025-03-27 This book explores Erasmus's ethnic and gender prejudices. It does not in any way seek to undermine the esteem in which Erasmus is generally held, as a prince of the humanists; it is rather a consideration of common early modern prejudices. The book’s principal innovation is the use of Erasmus’s commentaries on thousands of Greek and Roman proverbs (his adagia) as a source for examining Erasmus’s worldview. Researchers have often considered the adages as not voicing or reflecting Erasmus’s views, and as such have chosen to ignore them. However, this book shows that Erasmus occasionally expresses his opinions through the adages, giving us an invaluable window into his worldview. An Analysis of Gender and Ethnic Prejudices in Erasmus's Adagia and Other Writings is essential reading for all scholars and researchers of early modern philosophy and intellectual history especially those researching the thought of Erasmus.
  roman proverbs: "And Scripture Cannot Be Broken" Martin C. Albl, 2014-04-09 This work argues that many early Christian quotations of the Old Testament derive not from scriptural manuscripts, but rather from authoritative written testimonia collections developed to support basic Christian beliefs. Combining recent patristic studies (notably on Justin and Barnabas) and evidence from Qumran with detailed examination of quotations in the New Testament, the book builds a fresh case for a neglected scholarly hypothesis. After reviewing the scholarly literature and analogous Jewish and Greco-Roman literary collections, the book presents a comprehensive overview of extant testimonia traditions from the second to the fourth century C.E. The final chapters argue for the use of written testimonia collections in the New Testament. This study offers solid evidence for a remarkably unified early Christian scriptural tradition that extended throughout the Mediterranean world.
  roman proverbs: "An Educated Clergy" Jack C. Whytock, 2008-02-01 Scotland has long been known for its emphasis upon an educated clergy, yet little serious historical attention has been given to how this was actually fostered. This book begins to fill that gap. While a thoroughly historical study in Scottish church history and historical theology, the book also serves as a springboard for reflection and application to the work of theological education today with the evangelical Presbyterian and Reformed community.
