Pollice Verso 2012
““The pollice verso of Juvenal translates simply as “turned thumb,” but the manner or direction is not known… The context here is that the thumb is morally superior to the other fingers in that it, alone, disdains the wearing of rings. Lactantius, too, in celebrating the workmanship of God, eulogizes the body’s perfection and the thumb’s power… This authority may derive from the notion that the thumb was connected to the genitals, just as the ring finger was thought to be connected to the heart (Aulus Gellius, The Attic Nights, X.10). Fulgentius writes in the Mythologiae (“The Mythologies,” III.7), an early fifth-century AD treatise on the allegorical interpretation of myth, that the thumb was connected to the sex organs and, indeed, the erect thumb, in its suggestion of the phallus, was regarded as being apotropaic, i.e., having the power to avert evil.”
