Spectators and spectator comfort in Roman entertainment buildings
SPETTATORI E COMFORT PER LO SPETTATORE NEGLI EDIFICI ROMANI DI INTRATTENIMENTO: UNO STUDIO SUL DESIGN FUNZIONALE Gli edifici per spettacolo di epoca romana costituivano una parte integrante della società e del suo modo di rappresentare una gerarchia sociale.

The Road to Londonderry, April–October 1968
In the six months covered by this chapter the political atmosphere swung from the optimism and complacency surrounding O’Neill’s fifth anniversary in office to the sudden, and dangerous, polarisation of the two communities on the eve of the Londonderry riot. Many of the ingredients for the 25 years of violence which followed can be discerned during those months. Wilson himself claims to have sensed the unreality of this period. He wrote later, ‘T…
Conclusions
Research for this book was approached with an open mind about the effectiveness or otherwise of the Labour governments’ Northern Ireland policy prior to August 1969. This, broadly, was nonintervention in the governance of Ulster on the argument that, as Stormont was a devolved Parliament responsible for domestic affairs in the province, it should be left alone to get on with it. At the same time the Labour government had come to power in 1964 pro…
The Phoney Peace, May 1967–March 1968
The eruption of violence in Londonderry on 5 October 1968 effectively began ‘The Troubles’, which continued until the first IRA cease-fire of September 1994. Yet during the previous 18 months, despite the warnings, internal and external, outlined in the previous chapter, the British government appeared less concerned with events in the province than at any other time since Labour came to power, pledged to reform, in October 1964. These keywords w…
‘Leave it to Terence’
This chapter deals with Labour’s Northern Ireland policy in the runup to the general election in October 1964 and the development of that policy during the brief administration, which ended with the General Election of March 1966. The attitude of the Labour leader, Harold Wilson, is considered both in opposition and in government and the early attempts of backbench Labour MPs to raise Catholic grievances in the Commons are analysed. They were pre…
The ‘Crucially Difficult Year’, April–August 1966
This chapter deals at some length with only the first five months of Wilson’s second administration, April to August 1966, which proved to be a critical period, both at Westminster and in the Province of Northern Ireland. For the first few weeks, as the new material from the Public Record Office shows, ministers were bracing themselves for an upsurge of IRA violence both in the province and on the mainland which in the end never materialised. On …
‘History is against Us’, November 1968–April 1969
O’Neill, December 1968, four months before his resignation2 This chapter describes the final collapse of O’Neillism and with it the last vestiges of the Labour government’s Northern Ireland policy. After the Londonderry riot on 5 October 1968, the Unionist leadership, pressed by Wilson, promised at last to bring in reform and a remarkable television appeal by O’Neill seemed briefly to succeed with large sections of both communities.3 It proved a …
To the Top of the Agenda, May–August 1969
This chapter covers the brief period between O’Neill’s resignation and the British government’s decision to intervene at last by sending troops to contain the violence in the Bogside area of Londonderry. The historian Geoffrey Bell has noted that Wilson later called Londonderry ‘the culmination of nearly fifty years of the unimaginative inertia and repression of successive and unchallenged ... Ulster Unionist government’. The Labour government, s…
Putting off the Evil Day, September 1966–May 1967
The period covered by this chapter was significant for three separate investigations into the demand for reform in Northern Ireland: a delegation of members of the CDU to the province led by Stanley Orme MP which reported to the Home Secretary, Roy Jenkins; a special survey carried out by The Times; and the establishment of a committee of investigation by the Society of Labour Lawyers. At the same time that these inquiries were underway the Prime…
How the Troubles Came to Northern Ireland
In a new book about Northern Ireland historian Peter Rose argues that if Harold Wilson's government in the late sixties had pursued a different policy the province might have been spared The Troubles
Labour, Northern Ireland and the Decision to Send in the Troops
The unexpected announcement in 1948 that Ireland was leaving the Commonwealth and becoming a republic caused a crisis in Anglo-Irish relations which was to have profound implications for Labour’s policy on Northern Ireland for the next twenty years. Labour Ministers were appalled by Dublin’s decision, but after briefly considering retaliatory action realised that this would be futile. Commonwealth premiers brokered a deal which in effect ensured …
Cicero and the Rhetoric of Imperialism
This paper examines Cicero's relation to Roman imperialism by focusing primarily upon his speech in behalf of Pompey's special command against Mithradates (Pro lege Manilia, 66 BC) and his speech in favor of extending Caesar's command in Gaul (De provinciis consularibus, 56 BC). These two moments in which Cicero contributed substantially to the empowerment of the two great imperialist generais who destroyed the Republic suggest the need to reasse…
America at Century's End
Life in today bears little resemblance to that of 40 or 50 years ago. AIDS, crack, homelessness, latchkey children and surrogate mothers are all indicators that the pace of change has outstripped the ability of our institutions to adapt. In America at Century's End the contributors have written essays tracing the feel and pulse of American life. The result is a candid snapshot of approaching the 21st century
