Online Abuse, Sport and Women Athletes
This narrative review examines the antecedents of online abuse and specifically the factors that make sport an especially susceptible context and women athletes particularly at risk. The commercialisation of sport has intensified social media scrutiny, leading to increased online abuse of athletes, impacting their mental health and well-being. This narrative review identifies the need for sport policy makers to understand online abuse antecedents…
Celebrating 50 years of the Primate Society of Great Britain
The Primate Society of Great Britain was established in 1967 by John Napier and colleagues for the scientific study of everything related to primates. It is credit to Napier’s foresight that the Society’s 400+ members represent fields as diverse as anatomy, behaviour, cognition, conservation, ecology, evolution, physiology, neuro- and veterinary sciences and captive welfare. The 50th anniversary conference was held at the Royal Geographical Socie…
Chapter Eleven. From Oikos To Polis
During the waning years of the Athenian democracy (378-322) Athens transformed her civic virtues, such as demokratia and tykhe into cult personifications. In his efforts to renew Athens' fortunes after 338, Lykourgos (re)built temples and sanctuaries including one for Tykhe. The evidence for new cult personifications in 4th-century Attika comes from a diverse range of material. No sources indicate the direct relationship of Philia to Agathe Tykhe…
Chapter Six. Aristocracy Or Democracy? Eukleia And Eunomia Between The Gods
Two of the most popular personifications in the vase paintings made during the Peloponnesian War are Eukleia and Eunomia , the personifications of Good Repute and Good Order. This chapter surveys the identity and visual representations of each of these personifications separately, and then reassess their appearances together in art and cult. Eukleia represents the personal qualities that brought a person a good reputation, as well as the reputati…

Chapter Nine. Masculine People In Feminine Places
The popularity of local personifications dramatically increased at the end of the fifth century and into the fourth century, when artists seem to have created them ad hoc, for explanatory purposes. Their proliferation reflects a strong relationship between public art and political ideology in late Classical Athens. The personification of Attika might have stood in for Athena, in representing the people, as well as the land, but in fifth century v…
Chapter Eight. Ephemeral Personifications
In the late fifth and early fourth centuries, Athenian artists personified many entities that were neither worshipped nor even known in literary arts. Basileia (Kingdom, Sovereignty, or Monarchy) and Soteria (Salvation) were personified only once each in the visual arts of late fifth century Athens . This chapter discusses personifications of some of the important public aspects of festivals: Pandaisia (Banquet), Pannykhis (Night Revel), as well …

Chapter Seven. Visual Personifications In Literature And Art
Chapter Twelve. Conclusion
Chapter Two. Names Or Comments? The Birth Of Political Personification In Greece
As the goal of this chapter is an understanding of how and why Classical Athenian artists created personifications, one must start with the techniques of presentation. Therefore, it begins with a discussion of ancient rhetorical terms related to personification. A discussion of the role of personifications in myth and cult is then warranted by the fact that Athenian artists begin to introduce personifications in the context of myth. The chapter c…
Chapter Four. Goddess Before Personification? Right And Retribution
Themis and Nemesis are well known in the arts and cults of Archaic Greece. Themis and Nemesis are interconnected in myth perhaps before they are joined in cult at Rhamnous. Nemesis appears first in Attic art at approximately the same time as Kratinos' play, noted above, when she received her long awaited temple at Rhamnous. By the fifth century nemesis had come to mean (divine) retribution warranted by righteous indignation, such as the punishmen…
Chapter One. Introduction
This introductory chapter of this book, which investigates the role of civic personifications-figures like Peitho and Hygieia-in Classical Athenian art and therefore directly addresses the questions about the Hamilton Vase and many similar questions about the role of personifications in the visual arts of Athens. Peitho and Hygieia are personifications, representations of abstractions in human form. The importance of these virtues in civic and pr…
Chapter Three. Humanising Greek Places And Spaces
This chapter explores three categories of local personifications: the family of Okeanos; other eponymous or name giving heroines of islands and cities, of which a special group are the Asopids; and Nereids. Okeanos and Tethys were children of Ge and Ouranos. Okeanos is labelled on two early Classical vases by Syriskos, both of which show him with his family but also with other figures whose presence is surprising. Aigina and her sisters, the daug…
Chapter Ten. The Mother Of Wealth
Athens' preoccupation with a Panhellenic peace-and the economic wealth that it would bring-is reflected in Athenian art. The actual eirene, however, eluded Athens. Ploutos was to be Eirene's gift that would save the people. An overview of the Greek attempts at peace will illuminate the historical circumstances that led to the popularity of Ploutos and his many mothers. Kephisodotos ' statue was copied on later gems and coins, as well as in the pa…
Chapter Five. The Independence Of Epithets
Virtues surround Aphrodite-the goddess of mixis or mingling, not restricted to sex, love, and marriage-in Attic images painted during the Peloponnesian War. Such virtues as Eudaimonia , Eutykhia, Harmonia, Hygieia, Paidia, and of course Peitho could represent personal virtues as well as public virtues, and might therefore be interpreted on either level, or both simultaneously, when they appear in art that functioned in public and private contexts…
Behavioral Differences between Provisioned and Non-Provisioned Barbary Macaques (Macaca sylvanus)
The majority of Gibraltar's Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus) are provided with fruit and vegetable rations to keep them in the nature reserve and away from town. Recent fissioning of one troop has created a vagrant group that is denied access to official feeding sites by other troops, and which visits major tourist sites less often. Using focal follows and instantaneous sampling, this study compared behavioral differences between two troops of …
Recent Acquisitions and Conservation of Antiquities at the Ure Museum, University of Reading 2004–2008
The Ure Museum of Greek Archaeology, in the Department of Classics at the University of Reading, has experienced something of a renaissance in the 3 rd millennium. It acquired status as a registered museum in 2001 and accreditation in 2008. It has boasted a bespoke web-accessible database since 2002 and a professionally designed website since 2004 ( www.reading.ac.uk/ure ). Finally, in 2005 its physical display was completely redesigned. While th…
Social interaction with non-averse group-mates modifies a learned food aversion in single- and mixed-species groups of tamarins (Saguinus fuscicollis andS. labiatus)
For social species, being a member of a cohesive group and performing activities as a coordinated unit appear to provide a mechanism for the efficient transmission of information about food. Social learning about food palatability was investigated in two captive primates, Saguinus fuscicollis and S. labiatus, which form stable and cohesive mixed-species groups in the wild. We explored whether an induced food aversion toward a preferred food is mo…
