Thanks for your gracious reply.

 Where did you find it?

Long story, but I think it was the name of a sword in a long-lost historical
novel. I've seen non requitur in a legal context, perhaps somehow
connected with or contrasted with non seq.

Also, Et sicut non requitur tanta deliberatio ad simplicem loquelam, sicut
ad iuramentum (quia saepe est loquendum et raro iurandum) ita non requiritur
tanta ... 
---William of Ockham, Dialogus, pars 1, lib. 7, cap. 34-38


I should have listened more carefully to the Christian Brothers in 9th
grade.

Highest regards,

Geo. H.

Subject: VIRGIL: Caesar novelised


 For a train journey recently I bought a copy of 'Caesar' by Colleen
 McCullough, well known for 'The Thorn Birds'.  I thought that it was a
 rather creditable and very well researched presentation of part of the
 history on which V comments, so I commend it to you!  The general line is
 the Sallustian one in which there must be some truth, describing an
 aristocracy corrupted by greed and the availability of imperial loot, with
 the gossipy elements of Cicero's letters played up to give the characters
 life.  V's sense of Pompey and Caesar as genuinely 'concordes animae' is
 endorsed. Vercingetorix, the rebellious Gaul, tries to persuade Caesar
 that the Romans need a king: so Caesar is presented as an
 imperialist, originally enlightened, eventually forcing on his own people
 the very values which he had at first considered barbaric.  I'd think that
 this view underplays the 'civilised' monarchism of the Greeks, which must
 have influenced both Caesar and V, as Cairns points out in 'V's Augustan
 Epic'.  At any rate, McCullough's novel reminded me of how many strong and
 vivid characters, real source material for a great epic, were involved in
 the Fall of the Republic.  I've missed taking part in Mantovano discussion
 for a month or two: we've had a tough term at Durham University.  May I
 wish everyone a pleasant Year 2000? - Martin Hughes

Fellow subscribers,
   I asked my professor the other week why did the Greeks build a huge

why not a huge statue of Niki or some other figure? He researched and
came 
up with that this was a good figure for a seige engine. I still want to 
know if their is some significance in a horse,like the sign given by
Juno 
that a spirited head of a horse would mark the foundation for Carthage.
Is 
there a reason to be found as to why the Trojan Horse? Why not another

image? Somewhere there must be a little something that explains why a 
horse? Did the Trojans rever horses?
   Curious and must be more than a good model for a seige 
 engine,

Salvete!

I have the pleasure and honour of teaching Classical Studies to a class of 17 
year old young ladies and our current topic is the Aeneid. 
One of my students asked me today whether or not Helen minded being given as 
a gift to Paris and therefore whether or not she was abducted.

I hope someone is able to help me with answering this question satisfactorily.

I would greatly apreciate any comments on this so that my students and I can 
have an informed and intelligent discussion. 
Thank you very much,
Rebecca Smyth.

I've read the Latin somewhere as POSSUNT QUOD POSSE VIDENTUR. Somebody with a
