Abstract

The objective of this article is to learn more about the phenomenon of bilingualism and biculturalism that can be traced in Roman epigraphic manifestations, taking as an object of study the monument known as Ara del Sol Sanctissimus, created by the Palmyrene community living in Rome. To achieve our task we will refer, first, to some of the most significant characteristics of Roman epigraphy, to the relations between Rome and Palmyra and, finally, we will address the study of the components of the document that we are interested in analyzing on this occasion. In this way, the importance that epigraphic sources cover in our knowledge of some aspects related to the ancient Roman world will be shown.

El conflicto entre tradiciones distintas en el ámbito de la educación Por ello, no existe la racionalidad impersonal y atemporal, con criterios independientes de todo (tiempo, lugar, grupo social, costumbres), es decir, no existe la racionalidad ilustrada. MacIntyre sostiene que, para filosofar correctamente hoy, hay que recuperar precisamente aquello de lo que privó la Ilustración: “una concepción de la investigación racional tal como se incorpora en una tradición, una concepción según la cual los criterios mismos de la justificación racional surgen y forman parte de una historia en la que éstos —los criterios— están justificados por el modo en que trascienden las limitaciones y proporcionan los remedios para los defectos de sus predecesores en la historia de la propia tradición” (1994: 24). La investigación racional, pues, está constituida por una tradición y es constitutiva de ella 3 (1994: 26). Por otra parte, en el ámbito moral, afirma Macntyre que el bien (fines, deberes, obligaciones, modos, etc.) que informa y lleva implícito el papel que cada individuo debe desarrollar es heredado de la comunidad, la época, etc. en que el individuo nace 4. El contexto (familiar, social, etc.) es la primera moral de la persona, el punto de partida, un punto que no es escogido (algo contra lo que lucha la modernidad) (1987: 271). Sin esta base particular —afirma el autor—, no habría desde dónde partir para la búsqueda del bien universal. Por tanto, también en moral (y filosofía moral), el individuo es inseparable del pasado, de la tradición, hecho del que quiere escapar la modernidad (1987: 273): “La moral que no es moral de una sociedad en particular no se encuentra en parte alguna” (1987: 325) aunque aspire a más 5 (1987: 328). “El intento de encontrar un punto de vista moral completamente independiente del orden social puede identificarse con la búsqueda de una ilusión” (1971: 193). “Las tradiciones siempre son, y hasta cierto punto, irremediablemente locales, informadas por las particularidades del idioma y del entorno social y natural...” (MacIntyre, 1994: 342). Así pues, el desacuerdo constante en los debates contemporáneos procede, en parte, de que en el debate discuten tradiciones distintas, con sus propios criterios de justificación y acción, con sus textos y autoridades, etc. A mi jui-.
