Professor Elmore's Hypotheses

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  11 February 2009

Extract

On those of Professor Elmore's hypotheses which appeared in his original article, I need make very few additional remarks. He restates them with undiminished confidence in this Review in January, 1918, but, except on one or two side issues, he makes no attempt to answer the careful and reasoned criticism to which I subjected them. The further developments of his theories, to which he calls my special attention, call for some examination, which however shall be brief.

page 49 note 1 It has, I believe, been suggested that some distinctions may be drawn from the different expressions used by Dio for senatum legere. For 28 and 19 B.C. he uses ⋯ξ⋯τασɛ, for II B.C. κατɛλ⋯ξατο, and for 4 A.D. διαλ⋯ξαι. But of these only the last in any way unusual, and the novelty of the term is sufficiently discounted (a) by the word αὕθις, which proves the process to be nothing new, and (b) by the term ⋯ξɛταςτ⋯ς, which, being allied to the triumuivatus legendi sentus, brings the process into line with that of 28 and 18.
