@catilinas an interesting bit at the end of Morigi's Pharsalia book 12, describing Caesar during the assassination:

"like a bull, who sees himself in the spectacle surrounded from every part" - translation mine.

This, as far as I can tell, is adapted from Plut. Caes. 66.10:

"But those who had prepared themselves for the murder bared each of them his dagger, and Caesar, hemmed in on all sides, whichever way he turned confronting blows of weapons aimed at his face and eyes, driven hither and thither like a wild beast, was entangled in the hands of all; for all had to take part in the sacrifice and taste of the slaughter." - translation via LacusCurtius.

Morigi does a few interesting things here.

He determines that the wild beast is a bull and specifically in the spectacle (games in the theatre).

Moreover, the phrase implies that Caesar, in that moment, realizes not only that he is surrounded but - significantly - that he is in the spectacle.

The context establishes the equivalence between the spectacle (explicit in Morigi, I think implied in Plutarch) and the sacrifice (in Plutarch).

^ This of course takes place in a theatre that is also a temple (of Venus Victrix).

And finally. Remember the sacrificial bull who escaped from Pompey just before the battle of Pharsalus?

"A bull brought forth for the Gods Above kicked over the altar and fled, flinging itself headlong into Emathia's fields: no other victim was found for the doomed sacrifice" - Pharsalia 7.165-7 trans. Jane Wilson Joyce.

Yay. We finally found him. The sacrifice may now continue.

Una promessa è una promessa perché la vita è adesso

Quando i giorni che hai vissuto sono più numerosi di quelli che hai davanti a te, le promesse che ricevi ti rendono invincibile, perché stanno a significare che qualcuno ha scommesso sulla tua longevità e quindi ti devi adoperare per mantenerla.

Non so se ricordate l’articolo che avevo scritto lo scorso anno al mio ritorno dalla vacanza a Gatteo Mare con il gruppo terza età organizzato dal nostro comune.Per chi se lo fosse perso, volentieri ve lo ripropongo Continue reading Una promessa è una promessa perché la vita è adesso

A head-on collision between science and politics

By JESSE SINGAL JUN 25, 2024

When the World Professional Association for Transgender Health’s Standards of Care Version 8 was released in September 2022, a very strange thing happened: WPATH removed references to minimum age requirements for various medical interventions, describing the change as a “correction” in a notice that now reads, weirdly: “This correction notice has been removed as it referred to a previous version of the article, which was published in error.” Whatever happened, exactly, it’s clear that until late in the game the document did have age minimums until, suddenly, it did not.

The SoC 8 was supposed to have been created via something called the Delphi process. As the document itself explains: “Consensus on the final recommendations was attained using the Delphi process that included all members of the guidelines committee and required that recommendation statements were approved by at least 75% of members.” Suffice it to say that making a sudden, major change so late in the game calls into question whether that process was fully adhered to.

Thanks to a rather remarkable document just unsealed as part of Boe v. Marshall, one of the many American lawsuits over youth gender medicine, we now have a potential explanation for why the age guidelines were removed: direct pressure from assistant secretary for health of the Department of Health and Human Services Admiral Rachel Levine (who is a trans woman herself) and the American Academy of Pediatrics.

The document is titled “Appendix A To Supplemental Expert Report Of James Cantor, Ph.D. In it Cantor, a Canadian sex researcher, critic of youth gender medicine, and frequent expert witness on behalf of those attempting to ban or or restrict it (including in this case), claims that “Assistant Secretary for Health Dr. Rachel Levine strongly pressured WPATH leadership to rush the development and issuance of SOC-8, in order to assist with Administration political strategy.”

He backs this claim up with the following internal communications from WPATH members involved with the creation of the SoC 8 (here and elsewhere in the document, the names of the people who wrote the words in question are redacted):

I have just spoken to Admiral Levine today, who—as always is extremelysupportive of the SOC 8, but also very eager for its release—so to ensureintegration in the US health policies of the Biden government. So, let’s crack onwith the job!!! 

I am meeting with Rachel Levine and her team next week, as the US Department of Health is very keen to bring the trans health agenda forward.

The failure of WPATH to be ready with SOC 8 is proving a barrier to optimal policy progress and she [Dr. Levine] was eager to learn when SOC 8 might be published. 

[T]his should be taken as a charge from the United States government to do what is required to complete the project immediately. 

More worryingly, Cantor charges that “Assistant Secretary Levine also attempted to and did influence the substantive content of SOC-8, based on political goals rather than science. Specifically, Assistant Secretary Levine, though [sic] a staff member, pressured WPATH to remove recommended minimum ages for medical transition treatments from SOC-8.”

Here, too, he has evidence from anonymized emails written by those involved in the SoC 8:

Sarah Boateng, who is Adm. Levine’s chief of staff [said the] biggest concern is the section below in the Adolescent Chapter that lists specific minimum ages for treatment, she is confident, based on the rhetoric she is hearing in DC, and from what we have already seen, that these specific listings of ages, under 18, will result in devastating legislation for trans care. She wonders if the specific ages can be taken out and perhaps an adjunct document could be created that is published or distributed in a way that is less visible than the SOC8, is the way to go. 

The issue of ages and treatment has been quite controversial (mainly for surgery) and it has come up again. We sent the document to Admiral Levine. . . She like [sic] the SOC-8 very much but she was very concerned that having ages (mainly for surgery) will affect access to health care for trans youth and maybe adults too. Apparently the situation in the USA is terrible and she and the Biden administration worried that having ages in the document will make matters worse. She asked us to remove them. We have the WPATH executive committee in this meeting and we explained to her that we could not just remove them at this stage. 

[W]e heard your [Dr. Levine’s] comments regarding the minimal age criteria for transgender healthcare adolescents; the potential negative outcome of these minimal ages as recommendations in the US [. . . ] Consequently, we have changes to the SOC 8 in this respect. Given that the recommendations for minimal ages for the various gender affirming medical and surgical intervention are consensus-based, we could not remove them from the document. Therefore, we have made changes as to how the minimal ages are presented in the documents. [Note: “your” may well refer to an aide of Levine’s rather than the Secretary herself, though it’s unclear.] 

Cantor also includes emails from SoC 8 contributors expressing surprise at the sudden change, including this one making. . . well, the same point everyone else made after news of the late-stage “correction” broke:

I don’t see how we can simply remove something that important from the document—without going through a Delphi—at this final stage of the game [. . . ] I realize that those in favor of the bans are going to go right to the age criteria and ignore the fact that we actually strengthened the strictness of the criteria to help clinicians better discern appropriate surgical candidates from those who are inappropriate [. . . ] It’s all about messaging and marketing. 

I’m actually crashing on a different but related freelance story at the moment. Check out Leor Sapir’s Twitter timeline for more details about this and another just-unsealed document. Next week, when I’ve caught my breath, I’ll write a little bit more about this as well as yet another damning claim Cantor makes, that the American Academy of Pediatrics “issued an ultimatum to WPATH: Should WPATH not delete the age minimums, AAP would not only withhold endorsement of SOC-8, but would publicly oppose the document.” 

But I wanted to at least get this short piece up, because the Levine angle is important and alarming. It demonstrates an indisputable conflict between how WPATH has portrayed the SoC 8 — as a document steeped in evidence and careful deliberation on the part of experts — and how the guidelines were actually formulated.

Lina Khan Gets It Wrong (Again)

by Norman Singleton | Oct 28, 2024

60 Minutes recently aired an interview with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Chair Lina Khan conducted by veteran reporter Lesley Stahl. This may have been the first time in their 58-year history that 60 Minutes has profiled an FTC chair, but Lina Khan is not the “typical” FTC chair.

President Joe Biden picked Lina Khan to head the FTC because she is a (maybe the) leading advocate for “neo-Brandeisians.” Named for former Supreme Court Justice (and progressive icon) Louis Brandeis, this movement seeks to restore the “big is de facto bad” approach that dominated antitrust from the passage of the first antitrust laws in the 1890s until the Ronald Reagan administration. The “big is de facto bad” approach was displaced by the consumer welfare standard, which focuses on how businesses’ actions affect consumers.

Stahl questioned Khan about concerns that when government prevents companies from merging, they deprive them of the ability to use economies of scale to lower prices. Khan said, “Even if those efficiencies arise, if the companies are not checked by competition, it won’t have an incentive to pass those benefits on to the consumer because those consumers may not have anywhere else to go.” Khan and her progressive allies fail to consider the history of businesses that believed their position as leader of the market was so untouchable that they could abuse their customers with high prices, poor customer service, and a refusal to adapt to compete with new and innovative competitors.

An example of a seemingly untouchable market leader that failed to “keep up with the times” is Borders Books. Borders’ failure to see the potential in online retail caused the company to lose many customers (and eventually go bankrupt) to an online book retailer that started as one man selling books in a rented warehouse. That company was Amazon.

Khan acknowledged concerns that her aggressive approach to antitrust could make companies reluctant to engage in beneficial mergers or acquisitions because they fear that the time and money they will have to spend justifying the merger to the government will make the transaction unprofitable. However, Khan says those concerns must be balanced by the risk that businesses could grow so big and act so recklessly they could crash the entire economy. This concern ignores the fact that the only case of big business recklessness causing an economy wide meltdown was the subprime crisis of 2007-2008, which was the result of government intervention in the housing market, not “unbridled capitalism.”

It's been more than a month since a dozen civil rights and religious groups say they sent a letter to the White House calling on President Joe Biden sign an executive order to study reparations by Juneteenth, or this Sunday, June 19, marking the emancipation of enslaved African Americans.

The study activists wants comes after a decades-long push to establish a 13-person reparations commission in Congress.

A art installation calling on President Joe Biden to sign an executive order on reparations stands in Washington.

Human Rights Watch

Shortly after the end of the Civil War, Union leaders promised formerly enslaved families "40 acres and a mule" -- a promise never fulfilled.

However, a reminder of the centuries-old promise has languished in Congress for decades. H.R. 40, the Commission to Study and Develop Reparation Proposals for African Americans Act, has been introduced in every legislative session since 1989.

The measure seeks to establish a commission to study "and consider a national apology and proposal for reparations for the institution of slavery, legal and other racial and economic discrimination, and the impact of these forces on living African Americans, to make recommendations to the Congress on appropriate remedies ..."

In recent years, the bill has gained some political traction.

In 2019, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, hundreds of members of Congress and over 350 organizations, including the U.S. Conference of Mayors, NAACP and ACLU publicly announced support for reparations.

At the Tribeca Film Festival, "The Big Payback," a documentary examining reparations, directed by "Living Single" actress Erika Alexander, premiered at the legendary festival in early June.

Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki reiterated in 2021 that President Biden supported the study of reparations. However, when asked if he would support a bill on reparations Psaki said, "We'll see what happens through the legislative process."

Asked if Biden supports an executive order on the study of reparations, Psaki said at the time, "it would be up to him, he has executive order authority, he would certainly support a study, and we'll see where Congress moves on that issue."

A White House official told ABC News on Thursday, President Biden still "supports a study of reparations and the continued impacts of slavery but he is very clear that we don't need a study to advance racial equity."

Nkechi Taifa is director of the Reparation Education Project, and has been calling for reparations for moire than 50 years. In 1987, she was one of the founders of the National Coalition of Blacks for Reparations in America (N'COBRA), an organization that worked closely with Democratic Rep. John Conyers to draft the introduction of H.R. 40 in 1989. She says now is the time for Biden to sign an executive order so the commission can be up and running before the end of Biden's presidency.

Taifa says she hopes the display at the ellipse sends a message that reparations advocates need to be paid attention to, and Black people should not be taken for granted.

She told ABC News, "If they think they're gonna rest on Juneteenth because it's a holiday and a watered down policing reform bill -- that's not enough. Black people have been run roughshod over, you know, for centuries, and it just, it just cannot continue."

Joan Neal, deputy executive director and chief equity officer at NETWORK, a social justice advocacy group founded by U.S. religious sisters tells ABC News, that "Slavery was a sin, that was the original sin of this country, and we believe that unless you acknowledge your sin and you make a firm determination to never do it again, and then make restitution for what was lost. You still have not been forgiven."

She added, "All parties have to be willing to stand up and face the sin in order for the sin to be forgiven and in order for things to be whole again."

So there is Giulio Morigi's 1579 Italian translation of the Pharsalia, supplemented by the translator's own 2.5 books, taking the story to the assassination of Caesar.

Unexpectedly, the decision to finish book 12 with the words "e tu figliuolo" ("you too, son") - though one can call it tired - works in the given context. Reasons:

(1) civil war is framed by Lucan as patricide and fratricide;

(2) Brutus, as established earlier by Lucan, is possessed by Pompey who is Caesar's son-in-law. I realize this pun only works in English, as opposed to Latin and Italian, but it is still funny to me;

(3) Cycles Of Violence in the Pharsalia. "You too, son, are not escaping the washing machine".
