  3. Greco-Roman perspective on history

  4. Concept of Afterlife • Their concept of an afterlife is not extremely pleasant for most people • Shades (manes) in Orcus, Hades, Chaos, Tartarus, etc. • Shining examples of virtue and valor go to Elysium (among the Roman authors, only famous people are here) • Reincarnation possible, not necessarily a widely held belief

  5. Not very many make it to Elysium

  6. Greek concept even more bleak (at least during Homer) • Concept is less developed • No Elysium (at the time of Homer)

  7. Psalm 103 • 15As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth. • 16For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more. • 17But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children; • 18To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them. • 19The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.

  8. Fear of being forgotten Achilles’ choice: 1) Great and famous war hero—die young OR 2) Live a long and happy life with family but NO FAME

  9. Julius Caesar -Serving as quaestor (provincial administrator) in Hispania in 69 BC -Sees a statue of Alexander the Great -Realizes that by the time he was 30, Alexander had the world at his feet

  10. Ceasar returns to Rome to gain fame/glory through Roman politics Alexander conquered all major civilizations of the near East  (356–323 BC)

  11. Motivation • No to make it to Elysium • Fama (fame) • Gloria (glory) • Fatum (destiny) to a lesser extent; applies especially to Aeneas • Living as a part of history/making history with their lives • Caesar’s view of Alexander
