Thomas Habinek
The World of Roman Song: From Ritualized Speech to Social Order

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this bold work, Thomas Habinek offers an entirely new theoretical perspective on Roman cultural history. Although English words such as `literature` and `religion` have their origins in Latin, the Romans had no such specific concepts. Rather, much of the sense of these words was captured in the Latin word carmen , usually translated into English as `song.` Habinek argues that for the Romans, `song` encompassed a wide range of ritualized speech, including elements of poetry, storytelling, and even the casting of spells. Habinek begins with the fraternal societies, or sodalitates , which predated the Republic and endured into the Imperial era, and whose rites, although adapted over time to different deities and cults, were from the beginning centered on song (perhaps most notably in the ancient Carmen Saliare ). He goes on to show how this early use of song became a paradigm for cultural reproduction throughout Roman history. Ritual mastery of the chaos… [detailed...]
