Call for papers
 
XIV A.D.
SAECVLVM AVGVSTVM
Lisbon, 24-26 September 2014
Gaius Octavius was born on September the 23rd, 63 a. C., being the son of
Atia, a niece of Julius Caesar. After Caesar's assassination in 44 a. C.,
the will of the Dictator revealed that Gaius Octavius was adopted by his
great-uncle, and that he had named him his heir. Returned from Greece, where
he had finished his studies, Octavian sought the support of the Caesarists,
as Antony, and along with this and Marcus Lepidus, formed what became known
as the Second Triumvirate. It was the year 43 a. C. The following year,
Caesar was deified, and from then on Octavian became diui filius, thus
raising a divine aura that turned out to be decisive in his biographical
journey in general and particular political. Shortly after, Octavian married
Livia, who was linked to the gens Claudia, for having previously been
married to Tiberius Claudius Nero. By Livia, however, Octavian did not come
to have direct descendants. Indeed, he only had a daughter from his marriage
to Scribonia, Julia, a lady of the Roman aristocracy. But she gave him a
number of grandchildren, who would be decisive for the Roman History: Gaius
and Lucius Caesar, Julilla, Agrippina, and Agrippa Postumus.
The political position of Octavian met new conditions when, in the 30s,
Antony allied himself with Cleopatra VII, Queen of Egypt. From then on, it
became clear that the struggle for power would be between the two generals,
both former supporters of Julius Caesar. In 31 a. C., the Battle of Actium
determined the definitive removal of Antony and Octavian had finally full
accession to power in Rome. Reelected consul that year, Octavian takes as
its mission the restoration of the Republic, but Rome would not be the same
again. In 27. C., Octavian returned to the Senate the dictatorship,
officially returning the power to the Senators. To himself, he held the
consulate, but also took control of the provinces of Hispania, Gaul, Syria
and Egypt. Furthermore, he preserved his power and kept the imperium over
most military and other authorities. Among these, one must refer the title
of Augustus, i.e., “divine” or “venerable”. This placed him above any other
Roman magistrate. Moreover Octavius Augustus became designated as Princeps,
i.e., “the First” Citizen. From 2 b. C. on, Augustus assumes the title of
pater patriae, "Father of the Fatherland", and now enjoys the tribunicia
potestas for life.
In the years that followed, Augustus reorganized the territory, administered
the provinces, carried out religious and moral reforms which had as main
objective to restore the old Roman virtues, namely simplicity, austerity,
hard work and marital fidelity. Under his government, were born and lived
some of the most important names in the History of mankind in general and
the West in particular. Some of the contemporaries of Augustus were: Julius
Caesar, Cicero, Cato of Utica, Antony and Cleopatra, Octavia, Maecenas,
Messala, Agrippa, Tiberius, Drusus, Germanicus, Antonia Minor, Livy,
Dionysius of Halicarnassus, Virgil, Ovid, Horace, Propertius, Catullus,
Tibulus, Seneca-Father, Herod-the-Great, Paul of Tarsus and Jesus of
Nazareth. The princeps was indifferent to none. Augustus died on August the
19th, 14 d. C.
Thus, in 2014, will be the second millenial of the death of one of the most
decisive characters in History. To him we owe, for example, a considerable
part of what we know today as Europe. His importance was such that even
today historians designate his time as “The Age of Augustus”. This is more
than enough reason to commemorate this same year as the “Augustan Year”.
Therefore, The Centre for Classical Studies, the Centre for History and the
Centre for Archaeology of the University of Lisbon and the Centre for Art
History and Artistic Research of the University of Évora, the University of
Madeira and the Università degli Studi di Bari – Aldo Moro, with the support
of the Portuguese Society of Classical Studies, decided to organize an
international conference to be held in the next 24, 25 and 26 September
2014, in Lisbon, the ancient Olisipo, city of the Roman province of
Lusitania.
