But there is something decidedly uncomfortable about the parade of female lovers, goddesses, and Pompeiian sex workers offered here, which is not really alleviated by the inclusion of the famous letter from Vindolanda in which an officer’s wife invites another woman to her birthday party.The Bigger Picture is a 2014 British animated short film directed by Daisy Jacobs. 6PR Host Oliver Peterson says the 2030 renewables target is an unreachable target and Australia needs to take a bigger picture look into the problem. This is admittedly, partly the result of the fact that most surviving Latin literature was written by men. Women, in particular, come off badly in this book. But I think these readers deserve better than what Mount and Davie have to offer. Produced by Section 8 and Noah, the song begins with morose keys, a soundbite pulled. Instead, it is clearly aimed at the general reader with no prior knowledge of Latin and Roman history, or those with long-buried school Latin, eager to reacquaint themselves with the language. The Bigger Picture, the rapper’s latest single, exists somewhere between open rage and pleading urgency. I acknowledge that, as a university academic who thinks, writes, and teaches about the Romans on a daily basis, I am not the intended audience for this book. Guide to the classics: Ovid's Metamorphoses and reading rape While the authors acknowledge that his sexual advice – that young men should take advantage of drunk women and rape them – is “evil” and “wicked”, they also state that Ovid “wouldn’t last a second these days”, as if modern cancel culture is the problem, rather than the poet’s own words. The treatment of Ovid, most famous for his Art of Love, is little better. Yet there is no discussion of why Catullus uses such shocking obscenities or of the purposes of sexual invective in Latin.

Catullus’s Poem 16, which comes billed as “the rudest poem in Latin”, features raw, confronting, sexually violent language. The bigger picture (from the exhibition). The translations themselves are witty and evocative, but the contextual material is often weak or lacking. You need to focus on the big picture here and stop getting bogged down in the day-to-day operations. I know that one parking ticket isnt important in the big picture, but Im really annoyed about it right now. Guide to the classics: Tacitus' Annals and its enduring portrait of monarchical power noun The general, overall, or long-term scope of something, as opposed to the specific details or present preoccupations. We are treated to the poetry of Catullus, Horace and Propertius, the satires and epigrams of Juvenal and Martial, and the histories and biographies of Tacitus and Suetonius.Ĭicero’s speeches are likewise combed for memorable lines, from the instantly recognisable Cui bono (“Who benefits?”) to his invectives against Mark Antony. There is no doubt that within these traditional boundaries, Mount and Davie know their stuff. Yes, the book contains some funerary inscriptions and graffiti, and the occasional early modern philosopher, but again and again the authors return to the poetry and prose of the late Republic and early imperial period, which have long been the staple of English public (read: private) school and university (especially Oxbridge) curricula. 'The Bigger Picture,' his new single, opens up to his experiences entailing. With glimpses of a protest and several 'I can't breathe' chants, the rapper was undeniably going to reintroduce himself to a world that he's already been conquering. We should read Latin because it is fun, challenging, amusing, and exciting, not because it forms part of any putative “inheritance” of the West.īut for these authors, Latin exists within a very limited thought-world. 2 weeks ago, the Atlanta Rapper, Lil Baby, stood up to the music industry in a distinct way. “The fundamental reason for reading Latin is because it’s the language of Western civilization,” they write.
