Later Republican writers, such as Lucretius, Catullus and even Cicero, wrote their own compositions in the meter and it was at this time that many of the principles of Latin hexameter were firmly established, ones that would govern later writers such as Virgil, Ovid, Lucan, and Juvenal.

Many Roman writers seem to have composed epigrams, including Domitius Marsus, whose collection Cicuta ( now lost ) was named after the poisonous plant Cicuta for its biting wit, and Lucan, more famous for his epic Pharsalia.

In December 2010, the snowbelt between London and Lucan set a new record when it was hit by more than a metre of snow within 48 hours.

Marcus Annaeus Lucanus ( November 3, 39 AD – April 30, 65 AD ), better known in English as Lucan, was a Roman poet, born in Corduba ( modern-day Córdoba ), in the Hispania Baetica.

Statius ' poem about Lucan was addressed to his widow Polla Argentaria upon the occasion of his birthday during the reign of Domitian ( Silvae, ii. 7, the Genethliacon Lucani ).

It is possible that Lugus was a triune god, comprising Esus, Toutatis and Taranis, the three chief deities mentioned by Lucan.

Rübekeil suggests that Lugus was a triune god, comprising Esus, Toutatis and Taranis, the three chief deities mentioned by Lucan ( who, at the same time, makes no mention of Lugus ), and that pre-Proto-Germanic tribes in contact with the Celts ( possibly the Chatti ) moulded aspects of Lugus into the Germanic god Wōdanaz.

Taranis, along with Esus and Toutatis as part of a sacred triad, was mentioned by the Roman poet Lucan in his epic poem Pharsalia as a Celtic deity to whom human sacrificial offerings were made.

The wheel, more specifically the chariot wheel with six or eight spokes, was an important symbol in historical Celtic polytheism, apparently associated with a specific god, known as the wheel-god, identified as the sky-sun-or thunder-god, whose name is attested as Taranis by Lucan.

At a meeting in the Lucan Spa Hotel near Dublin, on 10 December 1974, the Irish Republican Socialist Party was formed by republicans, socialists, and trade unionists with Costello as the Chairperson.

These were Blanchardstown, Clondalkin, Lucan and Tallaght but in actuality this was reduced to Blanchardstown, Lucan-Clondalkin and Tallaght.

When Lord Lucan vanished in 1974, his car was found in Newhaven, in Norman Road, with two types of blood in it.

In 1949 he had a small role opposite Arthur Lucan, Kitty McShane and Chili Bouchier in John Harlow's comedy picture, Mother Riley's New Venture, although his name was misspelt on the credits as " Le Meseurier ".

By his wife Helvia of Corduba, he had three sons: Lucius Annaeus Novatus who was adopted by his father's friend, the rhetorician Lucius Iunius Gallio and was subsequently called Lucius Iunius Gallio Annaeanus ; Seneca the Younger ; and Annaeus Mela, the father of the poet Lucan.

These were Blanchardstown, Clondalkin, Lucan and Tallaght but in actuality this was reduced to Blanchardstown, Lucan-Clondalkin and Tallaght.

The extent to which Lord Cardigan was to blame is unproven, since he attacked only after expressing his doubts and receiving a direct order in front of the troops from his immediate superior Lord Lucan, Commander of the Cavalry Division.

The two men were barely on speaking terms as Lucan was married to one of Cardigan's sisters and, as Cardigan believed, did not treat her well.

Lucan recalled things differently, later giving evidence that Cardigan had been galloping back, only slowing to walk when he realised he was being watched.

Cardigan's commanding officer, Lord Lucan, had been recalled in disgrace — largely brought about by the determination of the commander-in-chief, Lord Raglan, to displace blame from himself — and arrived in England only two weeks after his subordinate but, as the officer who had " looked on " ( a pun on his name much exploited by Cardigan ) while the charge had taken place, little regard was given to his version of events.

Exploitation of underground waters along the upper course of the Rubicon has reduced its flow — it was a minor river even during Roman times (“ parvi Rubiconis ad undas ” as Lucan said, roughly translated " to the waves of tiny Rubicon ")— and has since lost its natural route, except in its upper course between low and woody hills.

Later Lucan and Campbell too acknowledged the firmness with which the assault on No 1 redoubt, which was not visible from their vantage point, had been resisted ; it was not until this had been overwhelmed did the defenders abandon redoubts 2, 3 and 4.

The order was ambiguous and misleading ( there was no ' second line of redoubts ' and the word ' left ' is dependent on the perspective of the viewer ), but on this occasion Lucan had interpreted the order correctly, and moved his cavalry to the west, placing them between No. 6 redoubt and the foot of the Sapouné Heights where they could not be seen by, or engage with, the Russians.

During the civil wars, his sympathies, like those of his native place, were probably with Pompey, as were those of his son and his grandson ( the poet Lucan ).

He was born in Marylebone, the elder son of George Bingham, 6th Earl of Lucan and Kaitlin Elizabeth Anne Dawson.

Richard John Bingham was born on 18 December 1934 at 19 Bentinck Street, Marylebone, London, the second child and elder son of George Bingham, 6th Earl of Lucan, and Kaitlin Elizabeth Anne Dawson.

His son and heir, George Bingham, now uses the style Earl of Lucan and is the beneficiary of the Lucan Settled Estates.

Spencer was born at the Admiralty Building, London, the fifth son of George Spencer, 2nd Earl Spencer and Lady Lavinia, daughter of Charles Bingham, 1st Earl of Lucan.

In the epic by the poet Lucan, Pharsalia ( VI, 507 — 830 ), she summons a spirit to reveal to Pompey the Great's son, Sextus Pompeius, the outcome of the Battle of Pharsalus.

Born in Clandeboye, Canada West, the son of W. F. Roche, he was educated in Lucan and London, Ontario, at Trinity Medical College in Toronto and at the University of Western Ontario.

During the next four years he developed friendships with the Stoic Lucius Annaeus Cornutus, the lyric poet Caesius Bassus, and the poet Lucan.

" Through Cornutus Persius was introduced to Annaeus, as well as to Lucan, who was of his own age, and also a disciple of Cornutus ".

The emperors Trajan, Hadrian, and Theodosius I, the philosopher Seneca, and the poets Martial, Quintilian, and Lucan were born in Spain.

The parallels to passages of Horace and Seneca are recorded in the commentaries: in view of what the Life says about Lucan, the verbal resemblance of Sat.

Certainly under Nero, the resurgence of republican ambitions with Cato as their ideal, ended in death for such figures like Seneca and Lucan, but Cato continued nevertheless as a righteous ideal for generations to come.

Other Imperial authors such as Horace, the Tiberian authors Velleius Paterculus and Valerius Maximus along with Lucan and Seneca in the 1st century AD and later authors such as Appian and Dio celebrated the historical importance of Cato the Younger in their own writings.

The Roman philosopher Seneca ( 1 BCE-65 AD ) was born in Spain as were the poets Martial ( 41-104 AD ), Quintilian ( 35-100 AD ), and Lucan ( 39-65 AD ).

His works chiefly consisted of annotated editions of Latin authors Juvenal, Persius, Seneca, Martial, Lucan, Virgil, Ovid and Terence, which enjoyed extraordinary popularity.
