Palatine

Un affascinante viaggio nel mondo (Italia, Spagna, Francia, Corsica, Germania, Stati Uniti d’America, Inghilterra, Filippine, Croazia e Slovacchia) alla ricerca delle mille reliquie di San Cesario, o Cesario, di Terracina; un giovane diacono che ha avuto un destino incredibile dopo il martirio, in quanto, fin dalla prima età cristiana, fu il santo scelto per il suo nome a consacrare alla fede di Cristo i luoghi che già appartennero ai Cesari pagani. Le traslazioni delle sue ossa, avvenute nel corso dei secoli da parte di santi, Padri della Chiesa, papi, imperatori, re, vescovi, duchi e cavalieri hanno contribuito alla storia della cristianizzazione di Roma e del mondo intero.

With the rapidly developing technological developments, data has become a very important trade service unit, while the World Trade Organization (WTO) has been insufficient so far in the regulations on this matter. The fact that data also contains personal information makes WTO unreliable for the European Union (EU), which recognizes privacy and private life as a fundamental right, which pushes the EU to insist on its own data protection law in cross-border data transfers. In this article, we will question the role of the WTO obligations and principles on the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and trade-restrictive data localization measures, and examine whether GDPR can justify itself with the GATS' General Exceptions Article XIV. Finally, we will conclude our work with recommendations and evaluations for better implementation at the multinational level.

This paper examines how banquets hosted by the Roman emperor were vehicles of imperial propaganda and expressions of the ruler’s political legitimation. Five aspects are here used in the analysis of imperial banqueting: traditional values, religion, precedence, acclamation and tradition. Through banquets, the emperor showed that he adhered to these values, had the appropriate qualities of a ruler and served the common good of the elite.

P rima che l'Area Palatina fosse interamente occupata dai palazzi imperiali, su di essa sorgevano numerose case private di illustri cittadini. Tra queste spicca la Casa dei Grifi, un'antica abitazione romana sita sul colle Palatino rinvenuta sotto il Larario, nell'ala settentrionale del palazzo di Domiziano. L'edificio induce a datare la costruzione della domus alla prima metà del II secolo a.C., mentre il ciclo pittorico ivi presente è riferibile all'inizio del I secolo a.C., con apporti che giungono fino all'età neroniana.

"Not only has Propertius 2.31 been used as a kind of artefact to reconstruct the Temple of Apollo on the Palatine, but it has also been used to show both that the poet was supporting the new ruler of Rome by eulogising his building projects and to show that the poet was anti-Augustan and expressed his opinions through subtly embedded allusions in the poem. This paper re-examines the artworks described in the poem, recent archaeological evidence and some of the poet’s earlier work in order to understand to what extent the temple described in the poem corresponded to the physical temple in Rome; what kind of political message or social commentary the poem delivers, if any; and what this message says about the world of the poet.

The paper concludes that it is impossible to say how closely the description of the Temple of Apollo in the poem corresponded to the actual temple, partly because the poet could and probably did exploit the fact that his audience were familiar with the temple, such as emphasising certain features by omitting them. The poem does have a political message suggested by the detail of the artworks it describes, but this message is not anti-Augustan per se. Compared to the author’s other early work, the poem professes strong pacifist sentiments, as is common to Roman elegy, but at no stage blames Octavian for the loss of human life which Propertius’ poems deplore."
