Gendered Violence, Victim Credibility and Adjudicating Justice in Augustine's Letters
In their focus on queer sexuality, letters 77 and 78 in Augustine's letter collection are unusual. Same-sex acts and sexual violence are mostly tightly controlled and deliberately erased in antiquity. This article looks again at the case of sexual abuse preserved in letters 77 and 78 between the monk Spes and the presbyter Bonifatius, applying modern critical understandings of gendered violence, victimisation and harm to reach beyond previous cri…
Gender in the Premodern Mediterranean
Bodily Fluids in Antiquity
From ancient Egypt to Imperial Rome, from Greek medicine to early Christianity, this volume examines how human bodily fluids influenced ideas about gender, sexuality, politics, emotions, and morality, and how those ideas shaped later European thought.Comprising 24 chapters across seven key themes—language, gender, eroticism, nutrition, dissolution, death, and afterlife—this volume investigates bodily fluids in the context of the current sensory t…
Galla Placidia as ‘Human Gold’
How can we understand female experience when it is refracted through the lens of male writers? This is a perennial problem for the lamentably discrete section of historians who are in search of women's history, but in other areas of historical scholarship this issue of unconscious bias and its implications have not been fully recognised
Divination and Systems of Knowledge in Greco-Roman Antiquity
The Origin of Zealous Intolerance
This article explores the origins of religious intolerance in two episodes from the early fifth century ad: the forcible conversion of 540 Jews in Minorca by Bishop Severus, and the failed attempt by the monk Fronto to uncover heterodox belief in Tarragona, north-east Hispania. With the newly discovered relics of St Stephen, the presbyter Paulus Orosius brought a peculiarly vehement and absolute intolerance of non-orthodox Christianity to Minorca…
Implementing an integrated pest management (IPM) program in child care centers
Death Education in the Helping Professions
Ours has been described as a death denying society. The removal of death taboos may be expected to help us control and modify pathological fears of our own death and the death of others. More positively, attempts to understand and accept the reality of death may promote richer appreciation of dimensions of living. Professional workers committed to helping others during such crises as dying and bereavement seem to have a special need to resolve th…

Crime Control
(An officer and student of policing views, in this article, a problem as old as civilization itself: that of crime control. After a number of years of service as a police officer, Professor Leonard turned to the college campus and to teaching and research. He is head of the Department of Police Science and Administration, the State College of Washington, Pullman, Washington; is author of the text Police Communication Systems, and is an associate …
Educational Policy and the Police
Despite the combined efforts of national, state, and local police agencies, crime has increased steadily at the rate of 3 per cent per year.1 This implies a 3 per cent annual increase in the nation's tribute to a socially destructive force, already costing the taxpayer far more than the educational institutions of this country. It should be borne in mind also that none of the estimates of the cost of crime and vice account for the tremendous indi…
