[First posted in AWOL 16 July 2009. Updated 7 February 2013]Vetus Latina Iohannes, The Verbum Project, The Old Latin manuscripts of St John's GospelE
dited by P. H. Burton, J. Palserak, H. A. G. Houghton, D. C. Parker![http://www.iohannes.com/images/EagleOvalSmall.jpg]()
This electronic edition of the Old Latin manuscripts of St John's Gospel is the initial stage of a full edition of the Old Latin materials for this Gospel in the series Vetus Latina. Die Reste der Altlateinischen Bibel nach Petrus Sabatier neu gesammelt und herausgegeben von der Erzabtei Beuron. The second stage consists of the collection and addition of patristic citations of the Gospel. This division was adopted for two reasons. The first is that the Gospels are unique in the Old Latin Bible, in that the main text-types are represented by extant manuscripts and not by citations. The transcriptions (and their apparatus) thus provide a framework to which the citations may then be added. The second reason is more pragmatic: the rules with regard to length and size of project of the Arts and Humanities Research Board, which funded both this work and its continuation, are such that the preparation of the full edition required to be split into two stages. The transcribing and editing of the manuscripts made a suitable first stage with its own worthwhile results.
The Verbum Project, as we called it, began in October 2002 and ran for three years within what was then the Centre for the Editing of Texts in Religion (now the Institute for Textual Scholarship and Electronic Editing) in the Department of Theology and Religion, University of Birmingham. Although free-standing, it built upon and shared ideas with the Principio Project, whose goals included a similar electronic edition of the Greek majuscule manuscripts of John. The project was directed by David Parker, while Jon Balserak and Philip Burton worked full-time on the project, the latter having responsibility for the practical decision-making. They produced the bulk of the transcriptions, although Hugh Houghton (who was working on a doctoral thesis more closely related to the patristic citations) and David Parker also made contributions. The production of the electronic edition and most of the proofreading have been undertaken by Hugh Houghton.
The methodology followed was to make transcriptions following the TEI guidelines as applied by other editions which have used the same software to make the edition, namely Peter Robinson's Collate programme, with further modifications to suit the special needs of biblical manuscripts as already developed by the Münster Institut für Neutestamentliche Textforschung and the Principio Project (itself a project within the International Greek New Testament Project). These conventions aim to reproduce the page of each manuscript as nearly as possible, recording the original spelling, the use of abbreviations (including indication of the nomina sacra by a superline over the second letter), formatting with columns, lines, spaces and running titles, and variations in the form of letters such as capitals or digraphs (e.g. æ). The use of tagging also permits the indication of lacunae or gaps, letters which cannot be clearly made out, erasures, and corrections to the text.

[First posted in AWOL 16 July 2011. Most recently updated 7 February 2013] n.b. In a message posted on the Agade list [not publicly archived] on 7 February 2013, Grant Frame writes:Royal Inscriptions of the Neo-Assyrian Period: New Online Material
I am pleased to announce the presence of Part 1 of a fully searchable and lemmatized online corpus of the royal inscriptions of Sennacherib based on the volume "The Royal Inscriptions of Sennacherib, King of Assyria (704-681 BC), Part 1" (Royal Inscriptions of the Neo-Assyrian Period volume 3/1), texts edited by A. Kirk Grayson and Jamie Novotny.
The print and electronic versions of "The Royal Inscriptions of Sennacherib, King of Assyria (704-681 BC), Part 1" both provide up-to-date editions of thirty-eight historical inscriptions of Sennacherib, approximately one sixth of the known corpus of inscriptions of this Assyrian king. The RINAP 3 texts presently online include inscriptions written on clay cylinders, clay prisms, stone tablets, and stone steles from Nineveh, and these texts describe his many victories on the battlefield and record numerous construction projects at Nineveh, including the city's walls and the "Palace Without a Rival."
The Royal Inscriptions of the Neo-Assyrian Period
Numerous royally commissioned texts were composed between 744 BC and 669 BC, a period during which Assyria became the dominant power in southwestern Asia. Six hundred to six hundred and fifty such inscriptions are known today. The Royal Inscriptions of the Neo-Assyrian Period (RINAP) Project, under the direction of Professor Grant Frame of the University of Pennsylvania, will publish in print and online all of the known royal inscriptions that were composed during the reigns of the Assyrian kings Tiglath-pileser III (744-727 BC), Shalmaneser V (726-722 BC), Sargon II (721-705 BC), Sennacherib (704-681 BC), and Esarhaddon (680-669 BC), rulers whose deeds were also recorded in the Bible and in some classical sources. The individual texts range from short one-line labels to lengthy, detailed inscriptions with over 500 lines (2500 words) of text.
These Neo-Assyrian royal inscriptions (744-669 BC) represent only a small, but important part of the vast Neo-Assyrian text corpus. They are written in the Standard Babylonian dialect of Akkadian and provide valuable insight into royal exploits, both on the battlefield and at home, royal ideology, and Assyrian religion. Most of our understanding of the political history of Assyria, and to some extent of Babylonia, comes from these sources. Because this large corpus of texts has not previously been published in one place, the RINAP Project will provide up-to-date editions (with English translations) of Assyrian royal inscriptions from the reign of Tiglath-pileser III (744-727 BC) to the reign of Esarhaddon (680-669 BC) in five print volumes and online, in a fully lemmatized and indexed format. The aim of the project is to make this vast text corpus easily accessible to scholars, students, and the general public. RINAP Online will allow those interested in Assyrian culture, history, language, religion, and texts to efficiently search Akkadian and Sumerian words appearing in the inscriptions and English words used in the translations. Project data will be fully integrated into the Cuneiform Digital Library Initiative (CDLI) and the Open Richly Annotated Cuneiform Corpus (Oracc).
The National Endowment for the Humanities awarded the RINAP Project research grants in 2008 and in 2010 to help carry out its work. The publications of the RINAP Project are modeled on those of the now-defunct Royal Inscriptions of Mesopotamia (RIM) Project and carry on where its Assyrian Periods sub-series (RIMA) ended.

We recognize, however, that the move to OA raises complex and difficult issues, and we thus welcome the proposals made in the Finch Report to address these issues, many of which would be positive steps in the direction of OA. At the same time, the Finch report raises some significant concerns, which in our view must be addressed in any plan for implementing their recommendations. Many of these stem from the fact that the report views OA primarily as it affects medical and scientific research. Because conditions affecting the social sciences and humanities differ in several significant respects, we are concerned about the negative effects on research in Classics in the US and abroad.
1. Most research in Classics is single-author, and either is not funded or is funded by grants or fellowships that only provide relief from teaching; this leaves no consistent funding for author publishing charges (APCs). Requiring researchers to pay to have their work published would seriously burden those who are poor or not connected to a well-endowed institution; any system that favors the rich could significantly reduce the quality of journal publications.
2. Publication in the form of monographs or collections of essays is much more important in the social sciences and humanities than in the sciences. In Classics in particular, the proliferation of essay collections in the last few decades has meant that many senior scholars -- those with the best access to APC funds -- rarely if ever publish in refereed journals. Journals would therefore be left to recover the costs of publishing almost entirely from younger scholars, who are least able to pay.
We mention as a footnote that an experiment, funded by the Mellon Foundation, is underway in the US for an OA monograph series; it is too early to predict the results.
3. Classics, like many humanistic fields, is broadly international; indeed a good many APA members are housed in other countries, including the UK. Many journals publish articles in more than one language and scholars everywhere publish their work with presses and journals in many other countries. Any movement to OA in the UK alone, especially if a requirement for OA is included in future Research Assessments, would restrict the ability of UK scholars to have their work published, reduce the submission of papers to UK journals by non-UK scholars, and discourage journals in other countries from publishing the work of UK scholars. The harm done to the international exchange of ideas in Classics would be notable.
4.For all of these reasons, we strongly support the Conclusion of the British Academy's submission to the House of Lords Select Committee, that the special circumstances of the humanities and social sciences be particularly considered in planning the implementation of the proposed OA policies.

| From Shiloah to Silwan Visitor's Guide
Ancient Jerusalem (City of David) and the village of Silwan The visitor's guide is based on Emek Shaveh’s archeological tour in the village of Silwan and at the City of David national park. The tour, initiated in 2007, is led by Israeli archeologists in cooperation with Palestinian residents of Silwan. The guide focuses on the remains of past cultures found in the archeological site of ancient Jerusalem (City of David), while acknowledging the Palestinian village of Silwan in which the site is situated. It gives the visitor the tools for an independent appreciation of the variety of cultures and eras represented at the site, with an emphasis on everyday life. Read more... |

| Between Holiness and Propaganda
Archaeology and political claims over the Old City of Jerusalem Archaeological excavations are tied to the political conflict in Jerusalem from two distinct aspects: one is the appropriation of land to be excavated, which can be interpreted as a means of control over a certain place or area. The second is the focus on the past, which can be seen as an instrument for appropriating the past to one particular group and its narrative. For these reasons, all archaeological activity in the Old City of Jerusalem is perceived as threatening and political. Nonetheless, the excavations do not all impact on the political situation to the same degree. Some are conducted in light of residents or merchants’ needs, are limited in their range and do not turn into national projects. Read more... |

Visualizing Statues in the Late Antique Roman ForumDuring late antiquity, the statues populating urban public space forged a distinct local identity for each city in the Roman empire. Nowhere did the prestige lent by statuary resonate with historical memories more clearly than in Rome itself, where imperial portrait statues predominated in the Roman Forum. “Visualizing Statues in the Late Antique Roman Forum” showcases the results of research investigating the political connotations of restitution as expressed in both statuary displays and imperial rituals during the fourth and fifth centuries CE. Statues governed perceptions of the architecture and the public areas of the Forum, which now can best be noted through a virtual environment that reconstructs the built context for open-air installations. A crucial factor to consider involved the rare occasions on which emperors visited Rome during the fourth century CE, when rulers mostly resided in other capitals. Ritual ceremonies such as jubilees, triumphs, and honorific events were all celebrated in Rome on significant but rare occasions. Formal panegyrics read aloud in praise of emperors correlate with the terminology of praise in inscriptions written on the bases that supported statues. The digital models featured in this web site functioned initially as an environment in which research was conducted on the correlations between rituals and statues. The same visualization serves now as the platform in which to display the results featured in this web site.
The research conducted for “Visualizing Statues in the Late Antique Roman Forum” was pursued with generous funding provided by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH). The inspiration can be traced back to the digital models of the architecture in the Roman Forum created by a team led by Diane Favro and Bernard Frischer beginning in 1997. After the completion of the “Digital Roman Forum” in 2005 that provided online access to the highly detailed digital models, the NEH supported a Summer Institute at UCLA entitled “Models of Ancient Rome” taught by Favro together with Sander Goldberg and Chris Johanson. One outcome of the seminar was a series of discussions about ways to continue the research on the Roman Forum by focusing on the experiential issues raised by statues and the ritual use of public space during late antiquity. Through the Fellowships at Digital Humanities Centers program, the NEH funded Gregor Kalas’s year-long research at UCLA’s Experiential Technologies Center to pursue this research in collaboration with Favro and Johanson.

Transcultural Studies is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal committed to promoting the knowledge and research of transculturality in an interdisciplinary context. Initiated in 2010, it is published by the Cluster of Excellence “Asia and Europe in a Global Context: Shifting Asymmetries and Cultural Flows” at the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg and hosted by the University Library of the same institution.
As an e-journal, Transcultural Studies provides contributors with a number of advantages not available in traditional printed form. High definition images, sounds, and videos may be included for an enriched textual experience. If contributors wish, an additional Wiki-platform can be added to allow readers to debate, comment on, and supplement the published materials. Transcultural Studies does not limit word count and accepts a range of literary forms, from scholarly investigations with extensive documentation to scholarly articles, films, translations of scholarly works, and review essays. While contributions are written in English, vernacular scripts are added if necessary.
Transcultural Studies strongly invites contributions from scholars working on topics related to or concerning the study of transculturality. Submissions will be published in the order in which they are accepted until the issue is closed; there will be two issues per year.

Digital Roman Forum![http://dlib.etc.ucla.edu/projects/Forum/assets/layout/home/header_image.jpg]()
From 1997 to 2003 the UCLA Cultural Virtual Reality Laboratory (CVR Lab) created a digital model of the Roman Forum as it appeared in late antiquity. The notional date of the model is June 21, 400 A.D. From 2002 to 2005, with generous support from the National Science Foundation, the CVRLab was able to create this Web site about the digital Forum model. The purposes of this site are to use the Internet to permit free use and easy viewing of the digital model by people all over the world; to provide documentation for the archaeological evidence and theories utilized to create the model; and to offer basic information about the individual features comprising the digital model so that their history and cultural context can be readily understood.
