De Plenitudine (review)
The brief treatise under review here is hardly to be numbered among the major works of Galen, but it does possess a certain interest of its own. The deceptively simple title, Peri plethous—or De plenitudine, as it is often referred to in Latin, Über die Fülle in Dr. Otte's edition, or, in plain English, "On Fullness"—conceals the fact that a very technical kind of "fullness" or "repletion" is the subject dealt with in this medical/philosophical/l…
A rare surgical procedure in Plutarch
Only we must guard against this—not to strain our voice too roughly when conscious of a full stomach or (recent) sexual intercourse or physical fatigue. Many politicians and sophists experience this, being induced to engage in competitive debates, some through considerations of glory and ambition, others for pay or political contests. Thus our fellow citizen Niger, when a professional sophist in Galatia, happened to have swallowed a fishbone. But…
Polus, Plato, and Aristotle
In the famous opening chapter of the Metaphysics Aristotle, in his analysis of σοφία, introduces the important concept μπειρία, ‘experience’. In the course of the discussion he cites the sophist Polus, 981 a 1–5: κα δοκεῖ σχεδν πιστήμῃ κα τέχνῃ μοιον εἶναι μπειρία, ποβαίνει δ’ πιστήμη κα τέχνη δι τς μπειρίας τοῖς νθρώποις μν γρ μπειρία τέχνην ποίησεν, ς φησι Πλος, ρθς λέγων, δ’ πειρία τύχην

Luxorius on the Art of Self-Defence
‘ pedibus makes no better sense than metre.’ Shackleton Bailey, who suspects an allusion to the exclusus amator theme and accordingly suggests unctis...postibus (‘Here it would be the husband who anoints the doorposts to placate a fierce wife and then uses them for cover’). But iunctis pedibus is idiomatic Latin for an all-out fight and has an authentic look to it; Ovid, Met. 9. 42–4 illustrates the usage: rursusque ad bella coimus inque gradu st…
