Salvete Omnes, Quirinus is a Quirites publication. Quirites is a non sectarious
French-law non profit corporation, open to every one, composed of enthusiasts
of ancient Rome and of the many fields or influences that its civilization
has produced, specially in France. " Quirinus " is the old Sabin god, that the first Romans associated
to Mars and Iuppiter. Quirinus may be seen like the personification of
Rome, either directly, or via Romulus. Quirinus is also the protector
of these farmers that were nearly all the ancient Romans. So it is not
amazing if the god and the citizens share this same" Quiri -"
etymological root. And not real amazing too that "Quirinus"
came to us as a natural name for our newsletter. Quirinus will propose to you, every four months, short articles
on various fields of roman and gallo-roman life. These articles take place
in twenty-thirty predefined columns such as " A roman museum "
or " History ", that guarantee the continuity of Quirinus editorial
line. Naturally, every column will not be necessarily treated in each
Quirinus’s issue. Quirinus thus hopes to be easy and pleasant to read, and interesting
for all of you that are new or old ancient Rome amateurs, or are going
to be. |
Even if it does not try to compete with scientific publications, Quirinus
will try to pull its contents up to its readers’ expectations, who
are eager for sharp news or for documentation sources that can continue
her/his reading of Quirinus. Quirinus’staff is formed by members of Quirites, joined by every
person interested in the publication of an article in Quirinus, even if
she/he does not belong to Quirites. Quirites taking part to "Nova Roma" network, a special Quirinus
column will give news of this international non profit organization composed
by romanity ‘fanatics’. Last, one page is devoted to Quirites association’s activities. You will find this Quirinus’s summary in the left navigation bar. Have a pleasant reading, Quirites, citizen, and do not hesitate sending
us your critics ! Ave, avete ! Quirinus editorial staff 1. The editorial staff is currently composed by Pierre-Jean Tuloup
