Ethics of science communication on the web
Scientists have evolved a unit of communication to describe their new results and findings: the peer-reviewed scientific paper. The internet is full of erroneous and even dangerous information that is difficult for people without a scientific education or training to interpret in context, particularly given the uncertainties inherent in the scientific process. Those interpreting science for the public, whether journalists, educators or other comm…

Two Notes on Lucretius
This comes near to satisfying; but even with ipsa the change of subject from tecta to plaustra is awkward, and exsultant is inappropriate to a lumbering plaustrum (cf. Virgil, G. 1.163 tardaque Eleusinae matris uoluentia plaustra ). I suggest reading cisia instead of ipsa . The cisium was a fast light two-wheeled vehicle which might well jump up on a rough road; and the first three letters cis could have become the - es of the MS exsultantes . Tw…
Lucretius 4. 1026
puri in 1026 can hardly be right. Bed-wetting is normally confined to children, and tum quibus ...in 1030 presupposes the mention of an earlier stage of life in the previous sentence. And what does puri mean? Munro and Bailey translated it as ‘cleanly people’ (or ‘persons’), though Munro himself pointed out that the Latin for this was mundi rather than puri , and in any case there is no reason to suppose that in ancient Rome cleanly people were a…

Lucretius 3.1–3
‘The reading of the MSS, and not the Renaissance correction e , is certainly what L. wrote.’ So Kenney in his edition of Lucretius 3. 1 I believe that he is right, but that the case for o (apart from manuscript authority) rests on different grounds from those which he adduces. Kenney quotes D.A. West 's statement that e is ‘not worthy of the precise and vivid imagination of this poet’, and himself finds it anaemic by contrast with the sonorous o.…
Quintilian 6.3.15—16
nihil autem uetabat et componi materias in hoc idoneas, ut controuersiae permixtis salibus fingerentur, uel res proponi singulas ad iuuenum talem exercitationem. quin illae ipsae (dicta sunt ac uocantur), quas certis diebus festae licentiae dicere solebamus, si paulum adhibita ratione fingerentur, aut aliquid in his serium quoque esset admixtum, plurimum poterant utilitatis adferre; quae nunc iuuenum uel sibi ludentium exercitatio est

The Thesis in the Roman Rhetorical Schools of the Republic
Ancient rhetoric divided the questions which concerned the orator into the definite and the indefinite, quaestiones finitae and quaestiones infinitae , the former concerned with particular persons and occasions, the latter without any such reference. To take a simple example from Quintilian, ‘Should one marry?’ is a quaestio infinita , ‘Should Cato marry?’ a quaestio finita . The distinction was introduced, or at any rate first clearly formulated…
