  Fasti - LoveToKnow 1911
Fasti dies thus came to mean the days on which law business might be transacted without impiety, corresponding to our own "lawful days"; the opposite of the dies fasti were the dies nefasti, on which, on various religious grounds, the courts could not sit.
Fasti Magistrates, Annales or Historici, were concerned with the several feasts, and everything relating to the gods, religion and the magistrates; to the emperors, their birthdays, offices, days consecrated to them, with feasts and ceremonies established in their honour or for their prosperity.
The word fasti thus came to be used in the general sense of "annals" or "historical records." A famous specimen of the same class are the fasti Capitolini, so called because they were deposited in the Capitol by Alexander Farnese, after their excavation from the Roman forum in 1547.

 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 96.02.14
In her preface H.-B. announces that "the purpose of the present study is to show that the Fasti is an important contemporary witness to late Augustan ideology and dynastic politics" (viii).
H.-B. not only takes seriously Ovid's claim (addressed to Augustus at 2.9) that the Fasti is his militia, that is, his service of the Princeps; she sees this dedicatory statement as the driving force behind the conception and execution of the poem.
Similarly, she argues that Ovid rededicated the Fasti to Germanicus because he was at the time of writing confident of the heir's favor with Tiberius.

 Roman to Julian Conversion: Sources for the Fasti
Aside from Degrassi's table, the only copy of the fasti I have been able to access (for the years after A.D. 13) is that published by Mommsen, although there are modern studies available of other aspects of this document.
Fasti were also inscribed or painted in public inscriptions, and quite a large number of these are known.
Unfortunately, the Fasti Capitolini Consulares do not survive in their entirety, and in any case they terminate in A.U.C. They must be supplemented by other fasti for the early imperial period, such as the Fasti Ostienses, the Fasti Antiates Minores and the Fasti Magistrorum Vici.

 Fasti Rationale
Named Fasti, it is meant to be a "light" electronic system, which is modular, flexible, extendible, and avoids obsolescence as much as possible.
Each block has a specific and limited task, so it can be implemented by commercial boards when they are available, with no need to use a specific brand or manufacturer and the possibility to modify it with minimum impact on other subsystems.
Inside Fasti there is a central controller for start-up, general housekeeping, global control of operations (start integrations for example), data collection, formatting and buffering, or for data pre-processing when needed.

 Roberts: Nomen perit: Memory and Identity in Ovid's Fasti
Much attention has been given to two questions about Ovid's Fasti; first, why the poet terminated a work about the Roman calendar year not in twelve, but six books, and second, whether the poem is best read as an encomium or a criticism of the Augustan principate.
Through a close analysis of the use of nomen, I examine how notions of identity are portrayed in two major episodes: the narrator's conversation with Janus and the commemoration of the conferment of the nomen Augustus (lines 589-616).
The first of the encomia in the Fasti, this passage is fundamentally concerned with establishment of Augustus' identity.

FASTI tools support detection of unwanted intrusion of segregated areas as well as civil-military co-ordination.
In principle, where dual ATC service is provided by civil and military ATSUs in the same airspace each ATSU would be expected to have equivalent capabilities to ensure the safe and expeditious handling of traffic.

 Amazon.com: Fasti (Penguin Classics): Books: Ovid,Anthony J. Boyle,Roger D. Woodard   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Fasti is both a calendar of daily rituals and a witty sequence of stories.
From the description of Mars' rape of Silvia--"Mars sees her, desires what he sees, takes what he desires"--with its echoes of Julius Caesar's famous boast, to the portrait of Romulus as a violent thug and impious rapist, Ovid debunks official heroes and dismantles the foundations of Rome's power structures.
Another setback to the "Fasti" is the fact only six months out of the calendar year remain (January to June).

By looking at the Ovid’s Fasti, I find it very interesting that everything is tied up into four categories: piety, worship, antiquarianism, and patriotism.
I remember a section of the Fasti when a young boy put on a toga, and that was symbolic of him becoming a man. Also in the Fasti, Romans were known to have animal sacrifices as ceremonies, which we do not hold in the modern day Christian religion.
After reading parts of the Fasti, it was clear that there are differences and similarities between the Roman religion and modern day Christianity.

 Patrick: The Sacred Grove As Memory in Ovid's Fasti   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Every book of Ovid's Fasti contains multiple references to sacred groves, those collection of trees that were once a part of a dense forest that covered much of Europe.
Therefore, by using the image of the grove, Ovid can with only a word in the style of elegy evoke what would otherwise be pages of ancient Roman stories, and hence, memory.
To visit the sacred groves in Ovid's Fasti is to link time and space and to evoke the memories associated with Roman religious experience.
