Packet 8: Bonus 11
A Latin syllogism about this action, which reads in part “qui bene dormit, non peccat,” is commonly misattributed to Martin Luther. For 10 points each:
[10m] The speaker declares his intention to die in a place made for what action in the Archpoet’s “Confession”? Horace’s “Cleopatra Ode” begins “now is the time for” this action.
ANSWER: drinking [accept descriptions of imbibing alcohol, beer, wine, or spirits; accept “Nunc est bibendum”]
[10e] The medieval Goliardic tradition of drinking songs grew out of these institutions. The Latin drinking song “Gaudeamus Igitur” is now mostly sung at these institutions, which in the medieval era imparted the trivium.
ANSWER: universities [or schools; accept colleges]
[10h] The second verse of the standard text of “Gaudeamus Igitur” begins with these two elegiac words. As an abbreviated question, these two Latin words have become a label for medieval poems that express a sense of loss.
ANSWER: ubi sunt [accept “Ubi sunt qui ante nos fuerunt?”; accept “Ubi sunt qui ante nos in mundo fuere?”]
