While serving under Glabrio in fighting the Seleucids at Thermopylae, a general with this name led a decisive surprise attack on the Aetolians. A man with this name praised the utility of cabbages in his De Agri Cultura. After the Battle of Thapsus, a man with this name committed suicide in Utica to avoid Julius Caesar’s clemency. Greek influence on Roman culture was opposed by a 184 BCE censor with this name known as “the Elder.” For 10 points, a man of what name repeatedly ended speeches with “Carthage must be destroyed”? | Cato [accept Marcus Porcius Cato or Lucius Porcius Cato or Cato the Younger or Cato the Elder; prompt on Porcius by asking “what cognomen do those men share?”] (The first and fifth lines refer to Cato the Younger. The second line refers to Lucius Porcius Cato, grandson of Cato the Elder.) | [

Borrowing a concept from Mikhail Bakhtin, this author championed the “polyphony” in the Hermann Broch novel The Sleepwalkers. In his book The Art of the Novel, this author called for structuring novels in seven parts, which he did for a novel in which Ludvik writes on a postcard, “Optimism is the opium of the people!” Another novel by this author begins by discussing Nietzsche’s concept of eternal return.

At William Wundt’s lab, George Stratton pioneered experiments using devices studying this faculty, one of which he combined with a harness. David Marr created a three-stage computational model for measuring this faculty’s processing. LogMAR and a chart named for Herman Snellen measure this faculty. An experiment named for this faculty, in which infants are placed on a platform while their parent calls for them behind transparent plexiglass, was developed by Eleanor Gibson. This faculty, which names a “cliff,” is used to perceive the phi phenomenon and other illusions. For 10 points, the occipital lobe processes what faculty that perceives color? | vision [or visual perception or visual acuity; or sight or eyesight; accept color vision; accept depth perception; prompt on perception] | [

] | acf-regs25-16-12 | 4 | In a novel by this author, a man who collects junk uses a broken umbrella to explain his desire to create a new language. In that novel by this author, an academic reveals that Humpty Dumpty and Columbus’s egg inspired his pseudonym Henry Dark. At the end of a novel by this author, the narrator receives a red notebook, implying that a man who walked in patterns spelling “THE TOWER OF BABEL” was the writer Fanshawe. This author, who died in 2024, was married to novelist Siri Hustvedt. Blue spends over a year alone in an apartment watching Black in this author’s novella Ghosts, which follows a novel in which this author’s identity is assumed by the mystery writer Daniel Quinn. For 10 points, name this author of City of Glass, which is part of his postmodern detective series The New York Trilogy. | Paul Auster [or Paul Benjamin Auster] | [
