Health, illness and disease are topics well-suited to interdisciplinary inquiry. This book brings together scholars from around the world who share an interest in and a commitment to bridging the traditional boundaries of inquiry. We hope that this book begins new conversations that will situate health in broader socio-cultural contexts and establish connections between health, illness and disease and other socio-political issues. This book is the outcome of the first global conference on Making Sense of: Health, Illness and Disease, held at St Catherine's College, Oxford, in June 2002. The selected papers pursue a range of topics from the cultural significance of narratives of health, illness and disease to healing practices in contemporary society as well as patients' illness experiences.

In "Two Dramatizations from Vergil: I. Dido'Äîthe Ph≈ìnecian Queen; II. The Fall of Troy," Virgil presents a masterful adaptation of pivotal moments from his epic, the "Aeneid." This work showcases Virgil's distinctive literary style, characterized by rich imagery and profound emotional depth, set against the backdrop of ancient Rome'Äôs cultural and political landscape. In dramatizing the tragic figures of Dido and the fall of Troy, Virgil employs a dynamic narrative technique that brings to life the themes of love, loss, and destiny that permeate his epic. The poet's ability to blend narrative with dramatic dialogue invites readers to explore the multifaceted aspects of human experience in the face of fate. Virgil, a monumental figure in Latin literature, drew inspiration from his own experiences and the sociopolitical turmoil of his time, particularly the transition from Republic to Empire in Rome. His deep understanding of human emotion and conflict is reflected in his characters' struggles, making it conceivable that his work serves as both an artistic expression and a commentary on the specifics of his era. The tragic love story of Dido resonates with themes of abandonment and loyalty, which speak to Virgil'Äôs reflections on his own societal context. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in classical literature, drama, and the intricate interplay of myth and history. Virgil'Äôs skillful reimagining of these stories is sure to captivate those seeking a deeper understanding of timeless themes and their relevance in both ancient and contemporary contexts.

These books are intended to make Virgil's Latin accessible even to those with a fairly rudimentary knowledge of the language. There is a departure here from the format of the electronic books, with short sections generally being presented on single, or double, pages and endnotes entirely avoided. A limited number of additional footnotes is included, but only what is felt necessary for a basic understanding of the story and the grammar. Some more detailed footnotes have been taken from Conington's edition of the Aeneid.

In recent decades, public higher education has faced perpetual crises. As states slash investment in postsecondary education and for-profit entities seek to supplant public colleges and universities, these public institutions have tried to compete by maximizing efficiency, namely, by downplaying and outsourcing the labor of teachers. Responsible Pedagogy makes a fresh case for the importance and value of public higher education and the work of teaching. In making this case, Eric Detweiler surveys the history of rhetoric and writing in postsecondary education, looking in particular at the teacher-student relationship. He finds that from the Socratic method to medieval exercises, from MOOCs to remote, asynchronous learning, the balance of authority and agency in the classroom is often precarious. But the problem goes deeper. Underlying both authority and agency is the value of mastery, which the teacher is to impart to the student. It is this emphasis on mastery, Detweiler argues, that distorts the proper relation between the student and teacher, a relationship in which they are responsible for and vulnerable to each other. Drawing on contemporary ethics, rhetorical theory, and critiques of practices in the online classroom, Detweiler develops a pedagogy of responsibility and shows how it can be applied in writing and communication curricula, assignments, and teacher-student interactions. Rehabilitating the proper role of the teacher, Responsible Pedagogy calls into question our newfound trust in educational technology and points the way to a better, more effective pedagogy.

Great art Thou, O Lord, and greatly to be praised; great is Thy power, and Thy wisdom infinite. And Thee would man praise; man, but a particle of Thy creation; man, that bears about him his mortality, the witness of his sin, the witness that Thou resistest the proud: yet would man praise Thee; he, but a particle of Thy creation. Thou awakest us to delight in Thy praise; for Thou madest us for Thyself, and our heart is restless, until it repose in Thee. Grant me, Lord, to know and understand which is first, to call on Thee or to praise Thee? and, again, to know Thee or to call on Thee? for who can call on Thee, not knowing Thee? for he that knoweth Thee not, may call on Thee as other than Thou art.
