	Augustan literature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Augustan literature is a style of English literature whose origins correspond roughly with the reigns of Queen Anne, King George I, and George II.
		This new Augustan period exhibited exceptionally bold political writings in all genres, with the satires of the age marked by an arch, ironic pose, full of nuance, and a superficial air of dignified calm that hid sharp criticisms beneath.
		Very late in the Augustan period, Oliver Goldsmith attempted to resist the tide of sentimental comedy with She Stoops to Conquer (1773), and Richard Brinsley Sheridan would mount several satirical plays after Walpole's death, but to a large degree the damage had been done and would last for a century.

		The concrete itself was of a large tufa aggregate, typical of early Augustan concrete[3], and laid in uneven courses using a loose, friable mortar.
		This was given ornamental cornices of travertine, to "co-ordinate" with the new structure, on the springline of the new arch.
		The multiple channels of the Augustan arch are one example of the job the Marcia did in carrying the new aqueduct of Agrippa, the Julia, along with the Tepula, which had become not much more than a branch of the Julia.

		Moreover, the presence of bracing walls and underground props in the foundation piers of the single arch, he suggests, might well suggest a reason for the construction of a new arch: not a change in political ideology but cracks in the structure that threatened collapse.
		What Gurval ultimately suggests is not all that far from the standard view; in short, he grants the possibility of an earlier arch for Octavian's victory in civil war but insists that it not be called or understood as "Actian." This is not unreasonable given the evidence.
		Yet the replacement of an arch commemorating a victory in civil war with one that honors a foreign conquest does represent a significant change of focus, even if the replacement was mandated by structural concerns.

		I know that the few specialists who have heard of this arch or read its inscriptions in the Latin Corpus will object that this is a private family arch because on it are the names of members of the Gavii family whose statues stood on the arch and in its niches.
		Most convincing of all is the arch of the Sergii at Pola, where we find the names of the various members of the family of the man selected as leader of the colony by Augustus, Sergius, who had been tribune of the Twenty-ninth Legion, disbanded after the battle of Actium.
		The surface of the Augustan frieze was cut down and a new surface irregularly and crudely made to receive the restoration inscription of Gallienus, stating that the walls of Verona were built between April 3 and December 4 of the year 265 by order of the Emperor Gallienus.

		One cannot, however, claim an Augustan date for this amphitheater, as for that of Salona; the attribution to the time of the Antonines is in harmony with its style.
		The arch that resembles it most closely in the style both of its pilasters and of the victories in the spandrels, is that of Cavaillon in Southern France, which in my opinion is also early Augustan.
		One series hints at another arch like that of the Sergii, with its frieze of arms and armor, its vessel's prow and oar, pointing in the same fashion as it does to both naval and military victories, such as were those of Augustus over Antony.

		Of the "secular" buildings that were erected in Augustan Rome (the Saepta, Diribitorium, Macellum Liviae, Baths of Agrippa, honorific arches, etc.), none seems to have been formally endowed in itself with a specific "religious" quality.
		Even if Favro rejects a suggestion that such an arch was not actually erected, it is surely inappropriate now to state as a matter of fact that the "Parthian" Arch was placed between the Temple of Divus Julius and the Temple of Castor and Pollux (159).
		Chapter 6 ("Meaning: Reading the Augustan City") is divided into sections with interesting headings: "Physical Unity," "Programmatic Unity," "Experiential Legibility," "Unifying Involvement," and "Legacy." It and Chapter 7, however, are marred by linguistic novelty and almost incomprehensible statements, as well as by unreliable history, typographical errors, strange diagrams, and inconsistent interpretations.
