Specialty Definition: Roman Triumph

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

A Roman Triumph was a ceremony of the ancient Rome to publicly honor the military commander (Dux) of a notably successful foreign war or campaigns. Only men of senatorial or consular rank could perform a triumph and be a triumphator.

In order to receive a triumph, the dux must:

  1. Win a war against a foreign nation. Civil wars and rebellions were disqualified because they did not bring either spoils or slaves to the public treasure.
  2. Be acclaimed as imperator (not emperor) by the legions in the field of battle.
  3. Apply to the senate for the right of a triumph. At this point, internal politics and faction lobbying had an important role. There are examples of rightful triumphs refused and generals of not so successful wars granted a triumph.

The ceremony consisted of a spectacular parade, opened by the chiefs of conquered peoples (afterwards executed in the Tarquinium), followed by wagons of gold and other valuable spoils captured during the campaign (including slaves), musicians, dancers, flags drawn with scenes of the war, the legions and finally the dux. It was a concrete exhibit of the spoils brought to the patrimony of Senatus PopulusQue Romanus (S.P.Q.R).

The triumphator rode on a biga, a chariot pulled by two white horses. A slave behind the triumphator held a laurel crown over his head (not touching it). Notably, this slave had to repeat continuously "Memento homo." (Remember you are mortal). The ceremony bears many similarities to the celebrations for the Roman gods.

The parade followed a precise route in the streets of Rome, starting outside the city Servian Walls in the Campus Martius. The triumphator would then cross the pomerium into the city through the Via Triumphalis (which centuries later was reopened as the current Via dei Fori Imperiali), along the Forum until the Temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus, where the laurels of victory were offered to the god.

To better celebrate the triumph, a monument was sometimes erected. This is the origin of the Arch of Titus and the Arch of Constantine, not far from the Colosseum.

Triumph (band)

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Triumph was a Canadian rock band popular in the late 1970s through the 1980s. The band was formed by Gil Moore, Mike Levine and Rik Emmett when they met in a manager's office in Toronto in 1975. Their first record deal was signed with Attic Records in Canada. They later signed with RCA Records in the USA that covered everywhere else except Canada. After the RCA deal ended, MCA Records picked up the band and re-released all their music to date.

In 1986, Toronto guitarist Rick Santers joined the band.

Triumph Motor Company

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

The Triumph Motor Company had it's origins in 1885 when Seigfrield Brittman and Mauritz Schulte started producing Triumph bicycles at Coventry, England.

In 1921 Brittman acquired the assets of the Dawson Car Company and started producing a 1.9 litre model called the Triumph Light Car. A number of other models were made up until the 1929 depression when production almost stopped entirely.

In the 1930s the company changed its name to the Triumph Motor Company. Donald Healey became the company’s Experimental Manager in 1934.

The Triumph bicycles ended production in 1936, and Healey purchased an Alfa 2.3 and developed an Alfa/Triumph called the Dolomite.

In July 1939 the Triumph Motor Company factory, equipment and goodwill were offered for sale. T.W.Ward purchased the company and placed Healey in charge as General Manager, but war in Europe again stopped the production of cars.

After the war, what was left of the Triumph Motor Company and the Triumph brand name was bought by Standard Motor Company.

In December 1960 the company merged with Leyland Motors.

The last Triumph model was the Acclaim which was launched in 1982 after a joint venture with Japanese company Honda.

Lexicography

Devil's Dictionary

INFERIAE,n. [Latin] Among the Greeks and Romans, sacrifices for propitation of the Dii Manes, or souls of the dead heroes; for the pious ancients could not invent enough gods to satisfy their spiritual needs, and had to have a number of makeshift deities, or, as a sailor might say, jury-gods, which they made out of the most unpromising materials. It was while sacrificing a bullock to the spirit of Agamemnon that Laiaides, a priest of Aulis, was favored with an audience of that illustrious warrior's shade, who prophetically recounted to him the birth of Christ and the triumph of Christianity, giving him also a rapid but tolerably complete review of events down to the reign of Saint Louis. The narrative ended abruptly at the point, owing to the inconsiderate crowing of a cock, which compelled the ghosted King of Men to scamper back to Hades. There is a fine mediaeval flavor to this story, and as it has not been traced back further than Pere Brateille, a pious but obscure writer at the court of Saint Louis, we shall probably not err on the side of presumption in considering it apocryphal, though Monsignor Capel's judgment of the matter might be different; and to that I bow -- wow.
