Latin Literature Tournament - Round 1

Propaganda under the cut!

Ennius Propaganda:

The man who started it all... wrote the first Latin epic in dactylic hexameter (fuck Saturnians, all my homies hate Saturnians)

Among his many contributions, wrote a minor didactic work on where to find good fish

Was buddies with Scipio Africanus

Lucan Propaganda

Really said "what if the Aeneid was more fucked up" and honestly, respect

Every line of the Bellum Civile goes So Fucking Hard. The most metal piece of poetry out there

It's got something for everyone: witches, necromancy, archaeology, blood and guts, aristeia, ghost messengers, siege warfare, dubious protagonists, Ptolemies...

Nemo me lacrimis decoret nec funera fletu faxit. cur? volito vivos per ora virum.*

- Ennius

Let no one honour me with tears nor celebrate my funeral with weeping. Why? Alive I fly on the mouths of men.*

One of our generation’s finest literary biographers.

RIP Patrick French.

[Prostrates self before you] If its not too much trouble. Tumblr user Catilinas sir. I came across a quote apparently from Ennius that "disrobing before one's fellow citizens is the beginning of perversion" and I wondered if you perhaps knew anything about it/recognised that from your adventures in poetry?

hi hello i've barely read any ennius (any-us if you will) so i alas did Not recognise it. but the magic of google tells me that the translation you found is the one used in zanker's 'the power of images in the age of augustus' which shamefully does not provide the latin or even a reference. wtf zanker. more google reveals that the latin is flagiti principium est nudare inter civis corpora, and that it is preserved in cicero's tusculan disputations. looks like cicero's talking about greeks being gay in the gymnasium. this article starts by quoting the line but it's almost 3am and i'm not going to read what it says! there might be more if you stick the latin in google scholar but other than being able to give you things you might already know to potentially look into i have no clue what's going on w it :/ ignosce mihi

#my favourite line of ennius is saxo cere comminuit brum (He Shattered His Brain With A Rock) #i.e. the sexy line with tmesis of a not really tmesisable word. but it's ok because the brain is literally shattered. With A Rock. #i mention this bcs the only ennius i know more than nothing about is like. the weird lines that quintilian or whoever doesn't like #i saw your sexy tmesis ennius. and it fucked #ennius #beeps

“The victor is not victorious if the vanquished does not consider himself so.”

― Ennius Quintus Ennius Born c. 239 BC Rudiae, Roman Republic Died c. 169 BC He's been right for 2,192 years (As of 2024 for you future folks) and I doubt he'll ever be wrong on this.

“Ea libertas est, qui pectus purus et firmum gestitat: Aliae res obnoxiosae nocte in obscura latent”.

“Freedom consist in having a pure and firm heart: Anything else is slavery in a dark night”.

Whom they fear, they hate. And whom one hates, one hopes to see him dead.

Quintus Ennius (c. 239 – c. 169 BCE), Roman writer and poet, as quoted by Cicero in De Officiis (44 BCE)
