Law, Lexica and Libraries: Italy and Francia between the sixth and eleventh centuries (London, UCL, June 20-22, 2013)

Law, Lexica and Libraries: Italy and Francia between the sixth and eleventh centuries

A joint colloquium of the UCL Volterra and Festus projects

Dept of History, UCL, 20-22 June 2013

The projects:

Volterra http://www.ucl.ac.uk/history2/volterra/index.htm

Festus http://www.ucl.ac.uk/history2/research/festus/index.htm

 

Two AHRC-funded research projects have over the last decade formed a substantial part of the research of the Department of History, UCL, in the areas of antiquity and the early Middle Ages: the Projet Volterra, Law, Empire and after, AD 193-1076; and the Lexicon of Festus.  Among the aims of the first is to promote the study of Roman law and its afterlife in a full social, political, legal and intellectual context, particularly by the analysis of the transmission of legal understanding; of the second to make the mass of information in the Lexicon available to researchers in a useable form, and to stimulate debate on Festus’ own work, on the antiquarian tradition from which he was drawing and on the subsequent history of the text.

 

As it has turned out, much of the achievement of both projects has been to show that the current scholarly consensus on large parts of the textual tradition of both bodies of material is mistaken; and it has become apparent that work on Festus in the Carolingian period forms an essential part of the story of the transmission of a knowledge of Roman law.  In particular, the Projet Volterra has identified what are probably fragments of the Codex Gregorianus and shown in the case of the Fragmenta Vallicelliana that the transmission of the Codex Justinianus is much more complicated than generally thought; and the Lexicon of Festus project has identified further material in the incunabula of the Epitome of Paul that probably derives from Festus and shown that the current view of the relationship between the apographs of the Farnese manuscript and the editio princeps is certainly wrong.

 

At the same time, research undertaken by Dr Gutierrez and Professor Calboli in Bologna and by Dr Boumis and Professor De Nonno in Rome has made major advances in renewing our understanding of the study of Festus in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries; and the debate started by the work of Charles Radding and Antonio Ciaralli on the history of Roman law in the Middle Ages shows no signs of subsiding, with crucial ongoing work by Wolfgang Kaiser.

 

We therefore propose to hold a joint Law, Empire and after and Lexicon of Festus colloquium from Thursday 20 to Saturday 22 June 2013, on the theme ‘Law, Lexica and Libraries: Italy and Francia between the sixth and eleventh centuries’, with as a common theme the interconnectivity between people, libraries, and texts, in order to place the research conducted at UCL in a wider international context and to strengthen the comparative elements in the two projects.

Appel à contribution 31 mai 2013 colloque “Fragments d’érudition. Servius et le savoir antique” (24-25 avril 2014)

C’est le printemps et les appels à contribution fleurissent… en voici un sur Servius (version pdf : Servius – Appel à contribution).

Appel à contributions

Colloque international

Fragments d’érudition.

Servius et le savoir antique

Université Lumière – Lyon 2 / HiSoMA UMR 5189

24-25 Avril 2014

Les Commentaires de Servius (4e-5e s. de notre ère) sur les œuvres du poète Virgile (1er s. av. J.-C.), ainsi que les ajouts anonymes du Servius Danielis, constituent un maillon essentiel de la transmission du savoir antique jusqu’à nous.

Alors que, par définition, un commentaire linéaire n’est pas une monographie ni un ouvrage spécialisé, celui de Servius a permis la sauvegarde de nombreuses connaissances pointues, disparues par ailleurs, et constitue, en un sens, un bilan des connaissances du monde latin, et, indirectement et partiellement, du monde grec.

Le présent colloque se donne pour but d’analyser les fragments d’érudition ainsi transmis dans des domaines aussi variés que la grammaire et la linguistique ; la mythologie et la mythographie ; l’histoire et l’historiographie ; les recherches antiquaires ; la religion et le droit pontifical ; les philosophies ; les techniques d’analyse littéraire et rhétorique ; les autres sciences : botanique, « physique », etc.

Les communications s’attacheront à faire ressortir, de façon synthétique, l’état des connaissances présentes dans les commentaires à Virgile, et poseront également la question de la transmission du savoir et de ses transformations, ainsi que celle du degré de spécialisation et de vulgarisation.

Les communications ne devront pas dépasser 30 mn.

 

Date-limite d’envoi des propositions : 31 mai 2013

Educating the future generation

Educating the Future Generation: Teaching, Learning and Antiquity

A postgraduate conference at University College London,

Greek and Latin Department, Gordon House 106.

13–14 September 2012

Supported by the Faculty Institute of Graduate Studies, Classical Association and the Institute of Classical Studies.

This postgraduate-run, interdisciplinary conference will look at the role of education in antiquity. The transmission of values, knowledge, and skills is inherent in every culture throughout antiquity. The Greco-Roman world, in particular, dealt with this issue from very early on, developing different answers in different forms (e.g. asserting educational values in great epic poetry, theoretical discussions on pedagogic principles, the creation of a didactic genre, and the composition of hand-book and school-book texts). A variety of authors and texts (from Homer to Vergil, from Aristotle to Horace) engaged in and responded to the challenge of educating future generations. Theoretical discussions, as Quintilian attests, and practical works (such as the various Artes Grammaticae or Seneca Rhetor’s Declamationes) were composed especially to meet educational demands. Indeed, the concept of paideia and the institutions of Greco-Roman education often influenced and shaped the reception of ancient texts, contributing to the selection of the works we still read today: in other words, ancient education also played an important part in the training of the Western cultural élite from at least the age of the Renaissance.

This conference aims to explore different aspects of teaching and learning in the Greco-Roman world and to examine the multiple strategies practised in the education of future generations. The conference also hopes to analyse how education shaped the reception of classical texts in Antiquity and beyond, and how the ancient notions and practices of education were understood, portrayed, and received in post-Classical eras.
