  Clementia, Roman Goddess of Compassion, Mercy, and Gentleness--Clementia Clemency mercy goddess compassion goddess ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Clementia is the Roman personification of mercy and compassion, worshipped in Rome as a Goddess, especially in Imperial times.
Clementia had a temple jointly with Julius Caesar, called the Aedes Clementia Caesaris ("Temple of the Clemency of Caesar") which was decreed by the Senate in 44 BCE, in commemoration of the mercy Caesar had shown to his many defeated foes.
Clementia could be shown standing up, holding a staff or spear in Her left hand, a patera or small offering bowl in Her right.

 Electronic Antiquity v6n1 - Ronald Newbold
Clementia may be defined as treating a person less harshly than one could, leniency, in effect, but when no action at all is taken against a person, clemency resembles the absolution of forgiveness.
Clementia was one of the virtues on Augustus's clipeus virtutum, and a virtue Seneca sees as part of Augustus's general self-control.
Whereas for Cicero clementia was a negative conception, based on the absence of anger, arbitrariness and excess, for Seneca it had the potential to reform as well as deter plotters and ensure security.

In his role as philosophic adviser to Nero, Seneca the Younger dedicated the De Clementia to the young emperor in an attempt to persuade him that a political program based on fairness and moderation was the securest guarantee of a successful reign.
Through the concept of clementia, Seneca hoped to integrate Nero into his cherished vision of a state ruled by a restrained sovereign in which he and his fellow senators could retain a measure of liberty and dignity.
Griffin (1976, 133-4) dates the De Clementia to late 55 or 56, at a time when the murder of Britannicus (early 55) was hinting at the horrors to come later in Neroís reign.

Clementia was very careful during her pregnancy, and on the 14th of July in the year of our Lord 1071, Clementia gave birth to the Luxembourg's third child.
Clementia gave birth to two more children in 1074 (Berthold in February, and Yolande in December.) Along with her duties managing a steadily-growing brood of children, Clementia also encouraged her husband's devotion to his people and his family.
Clementia's insightful council lead to a steady increase in support from all four stands of society, and before long the Luxembourgs enjoyed the unquestioned devotion of all their people.

 Clementia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Roman mythology, Clementia was the goddess of forgiveness and mercy.
There is not much information surrounding Clementia's cult; it would seem that she was merely an abstraction of a particular virtue, one that was revered in conjunction with revering Caesar and the Roman state.
Yet she was the Roman counterpart of Eleos/Eleus, the Greek Goddess of mercy and forgiveness who had a shrine in Athens.

 Divus Julius - Clementia Caesaris
Die clementia Caesaris wurde von niemandem je geleugnet, nicht einmal von Brutus selbst: Er ermordete Caesar nicht etwa, weil er dessen clementia verlogen fand, sondern weil eine Freiheit von Caesars Gnaden ihm als keine erschien.
There Caesar and his divine clementia were to be set up and worshipped, and on the pediment of the temple a globe of the world would proclaim that the clemency of Caesar spanned the whole world.
Cicero put it in this way: «Clementia became the dictator’s fate, his generosity became his destruction.» The classical historians agreed with him, and the Christian historian Orosius wrote: «He was destroyed in the effort to build the political world anew, contrary to the example of his predecessors, in the spirit of clemency».

 Ganiban: The Clementia of Theseus?  Virtue, Intertext and the Nature of Kingship in the Thebaid
It turns out to be very different from the virtue represented by Statius’ goddess Clementia (12.481 ff.): the latter is amoral and dispassionate; the former involves both rage and reason.
By employing definitions from Seneca we see that Theseus’ clementia turns out to be something more akin to Stoic misericordia (pity), which is a debased form of clementia and thus a Stoic flaw.
In attacking Creon, Theseus is not explicitly acting upon any particular virtue (whether it be clementia or pietas); rather he is indulging his own passions and thus is not that unlike Aeneas, who is motivated by fury to kill Turnus.

Clementia only has true hatred for Tisiphone, Goddess of Vengeance, but even that hatred is tempered with a hope that Tisiphone can be made to see the error of her ways.

 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2006.05.12
It is true that any work of analysis and comment on a classical text cannot be wholly original and depends on the previous exegetic tradition, and that providing an exact account of one's debts to one's predecessors means filling the pages with constant references (which is the solution I chose in my edition).
The result is a diachronic picture of clementia, apparently harmonious but devoid of critical depth, in which the mentioned passages are only rarely placed in the original historic and political conditions.

 Omero Sonio-character sketch
Clementia and Omero married in 1907 and moved to another town, about 30minutes from the old farm.
Omero went home to ask his wife about sailing to America, and she agreed (with a little convincing) that it was for the best.
For a little extra money, the girls made beaded jewelry (since Clementia was not allowed out of the house, and the two girls could not go to school, there was not enough money) and Omero painted pictures of the new land and jobs he saw.
