                                  Digital Athenaeus
                                  http://www.digitalathenaeus.org/img/book_bg.jpg
                                  The Digital Athenaeus is a project directed by Monica Berti at the Alexander von Humboldt Chair of Digital Humanities at the University of Leipzig for producing a digital edition of the Deipnosophists of Athenaeus of Naucratis.
                                  The work is focused on annotating quotations and text reuses in the Deipnosophists in order to accomplish two main results:
                                  1. Provide an inventory of authors and works cited by Athenaeus.
                                  2. Implement a data model for identifying, analyzing, and citing uniquely instances of text reuse in the Deipnosophists.
                                  The project provides users with tools for consulting the text of the Deipnosophists and getting information about authors and works reused by Athenaeus.
                                  The Digital Athenaeus is also implementing a system for involving scholars and students in improving and disambiguating data pertaining to the work of the Naucratites.

                                      The new MP³ database is now available online. We are still working to improve its presentation and performance.
                                      Some new research parameters are still being validated. For the time being, research is limited to the numbers MP³ 1 to 3026.83, already available on the previous database.
                                      As announced during the International Congresses of Papyrology in Geneva (1) and Warsaw (2), it will be soon possible to research new categories of Greek and Latin papyri (magical, Herculaneum, documentary, Jewish and Christian) and to use more diversified research strategies (papyri which are both “literary” and “documentary” or “magical” or “Jewish and Christian”; literary reminiscences in documentary papyri; literary papyri containing a documentary text on the other side; literary papyri associated to an ancient owner; author’s name and title written on the papyrus).
                                      We thank all users for their understanding and patience. For more information or in case of problems, please contact the CEDOPAL on the following email address: cedopal@ulg.ac.be.

                                      In 2011, the European Research Council awarded Dr Hugh Houghton a Starting Grant to lead a five-year project investigating the earliest commentaries on Paul as sources for the biblical text.1 This project, known by its acronym COMPAUL, was intended to build on Dr Houghton’s doctoral work analysing Augustine’s gospel citations.2 The aim was to instigate a better understanding of commentaries and their contribution to the transmission of the New Testament in anticipation of two major editing projects: the Vetus Latina edition of the four principal letters of Paul and the Novum Testamentum Graecum Editio Critica Maior of all Pauline Epistles being planned by the IGNTP.

                                      The Intercollegiate Center for Classical Studies (ICCS) has started a GoFundMe page in order to establish a scholarship in honor of Garrett Fagan, who passed away earlier this year.
                                      "Garrett will always be remembered as an influential mentor, an inspiring teacher, a supportive colleague, a loving father, and a fierce friend, and for this reason, we've decided to establish a scholarship in Garrett's name for the Intercollegiate Center for Classical Studies in Rome."
                                      You can visit the GoFundMe page to read the rest of the information about the proposed scholarship or to donate.

                                      Dear subscribers,
                                      Several new texts have recently been added to the corpus of the Cuneiform Commentaries Project (http://ccp.yale.edu). Please find a list below.
                                      We would like to renew our invitation for Assyriologists around the world to contribute their editions of commentary tablets, for which they will receive full credit.
                                      Best wishes,
                                      Mary Frazer

Written as an acrostic in a very rigid metric structure, the conciseness of the poetic diction of the poem, combined with its taste for obscure words and abstruse metaphors, meant that its understanding posed a challenge for generations of scribes.

                                      CCP 3.1.5.B (Enūma Anu Enlil 5 (?) B): The tablet Rm 2, 302 is a fragment of a portrait-oriented tablet in Babylonian script, published as source m of EAE 5 (Tablet 5 of Enūma Anu Enlil),1 is re-edited here because it seems to include at least three commentarial explanations (ll. 38′-39′ and 42′).

                                      CCP 3.1.5.F (Enūma Anu Enlil 5 (?) F): This small fragment in Neo-Assyrian script, edited by L. Verderame as source c of EAE 5, preserves the beginnings of several omens derived from the appearance of the moon’s horns, as well as the beginnings of a few commentarial explanations. The explanations are indented, which is the typical format of mukallimtu-commentaries from Nineveh. (Read more)
                                      CCP 3.1.55.B (Enūma Anu Enlil 55 B): Large fragment in Neo-Assyrian script containing all or parts of the first twenty seven lines of a commentary on EAE 55 (according to the Nineveh numbering system) on its obverse, and parts of the commentary’s last seven lines on its reverse. The tablet consists of three fragments (K.2314 + K.6519 + K.15255), joined by E. Reiner and W. G. Lambert. The commentary is followed by a two-line rubric and the remains of an Ashurbanipal colophon (possibly ‘Typ i-k’ = BAK no. 323). (Read more)

Unlike other commentaries on Cures from the House of Dābibi (CCP 4.2.B, CCP 4.2.G and CCP 4.2.P), the scribe of this manuscript does not identify the base text by means of a particular (pirsu) or tablet number of the larger series.

                                      Prague Egyptological Studies is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal produced biannually by the Czech Institute of Egyptology, Faculty of Arts at the Charles University. The Czech version of the journal is published regularly since 2002 and informs the Czech and Slovak audience about the current research in Egypt and Sudan.
                                      Starting in 2015, an English edition focusing on the Third Millennium BC, has been published annually. The English edition of the journal concentrates on studies in the history, archaeology, architecture, religion, language and art of the Third Millennium BC Egypt, with the hope of becoming one of the key scholarly journals for this period. In addition to the main archaeological emphasis, we also welcome primary studies focusing on the wider interdisciplinary scope of Egyptology, such as North-African environmental archaeology, archaeozoology and archaeobotany, as well as new research in applied sciences. From 2017, the journal shall also include book reviews concerning recently published monographs in the above-mentioned fields.
                                      The English edition of the journal shall focus on publishing relevant excavation reports and, at the same time, will aim to publish excellent, primary-research studies focusing on selected problems connected with archaeology and interdisciplinary aspects of the Third Millennium BC Egypt. The first English edition was published in 2015 (no. XV), followed by the second one in 2016 (no. XVII). The third English edition is planned for year 2017 (no. XIX).
                                      In 2016, the journal was enhanced from the point of its graphic forms and equipped with a limited amount of colour plates in order to publish select photos and visualisations whose value would be lost in black-and-white colour.

                                          The unique pyramid complex of Khentkaus (the ‘mother of two kings’ who lived around 2500 BC) was discovered by the Czech Institute of Egyptology in 1976. This volume provides the final report on the excavation as well as specialist reports on the masons’ marks, the fragments of papyri and reliefs, and the sealings. It also contains an evaluation of the architectural remains and some conclusions about what this find tells us about Egyptian history at the beginning of the 5th Dynasty.

                                          This book presents results of work by the Czech Institute to catalogue rock art later covered over by the waters of the Aswan High Dam. The symbols discovered are grouped into: Foot and sandal prints; Signs and symbols and Erotica. Despite the problems of dating rock art, the different types of mark discovered seem to show a long tradition and, as well as cataloguing the material, this book contains some interesting discussion about what the marks meant and how they were used.

                                          This huge book records 293 inscriptions on rock from the area which the Czech Institute took responsibility for surveying as the waters of the Aswan dam rose. This was a region 100 km long, extending between the famous temples of Kalabsha and Gerf Hussein. Most of the inscriptions are in Egyptian, dating from the 1st Dynasty down to the Coptic period with a particularly large number from the early 12th Dynasty (shedding new light on the conquest of Nubia under Amenemhet I and Senwosret I). The remaining inscriptions were written in Greek, Latin, Carian, Meroitic and Aramaic. Each inscription is translated, discussed and given both location and date. Each is also shown in a black and white photograph and transcribed.

                                            În demersul lor ştiinţific cei care au publicat de-a lungul anilor în revistă, personalităţi de marcă, specialişti consacraţi sau tineri, care au bătut la poarta afirmării, din România, Europa (Bulgaria, Croaţia, Serbia, Muntenegru, Macedonia, Slovenia, Grecia, Turcia, Moldova, Ucraina, Rusia, Polonia, Ungaria, Slovacia, Cehia, Germania, Franţa, Austria) şi de dincolo de ocean (America de Nord şi de Sud), s-au ocupat atât de civilizaţia tracică şi geto-dacică, dar şi de substratul acesteia şi de moştenirea lăsată actualelor popoare din regiunea de sud-est a bătrânului continent.

                                            Acest aspect, precum şi faptul că multe din articole au fost publicate în limbi de circulaţie, fără a se neglija însă şi limba română, a făcut ca revista Thraco-Dacica să devină un instrument ştiinţific valoros, care a pătruns în toate bibliotecile de prestigiu ale universităţilor şi institutelor de cercetare din întreaga Lume.

                                            Willkommen auf den Seiten von CAMENA - Digitale Bibliothek lateinischer Texte der Frühen Neuzeit. Unser Angebot besteht aus fünf Textsammlungen unterschiedlichen Zuschnitts und einer im Aufbau befindlichen Datenbank, die Stichwörter mit strukturierten Kontextdaten erfasst und Verknüpfungen zu einschlägigen Textstellen herstellt (siehe EVRECA). Von 1999 bis 2008 hat die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) den Aufbau dieser Bibliothek ermöglicht. Die Arbeit wird nun teils im Rahmen des vom Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF) geförderten Projektes eAQUA, teils durch den vom Istituto Italiano per gli Studi Filosofici geförderten Aufbau einer neuen Sammlung (ITALI) fortgesetzt. Wie von Beginn an stellt auch weiterhin die Universitätsbibliothek Mannheim die aus ihren historischen Buchbeständen ausgewählten Vorlagen zur Verfügung, während das Rechenzentrum der Universität Mannheim die Web-Server-Administration leistet.

                                            Welcome to CAMENA - Latin Texts of Early Modern Europe. Our successive projects are dedicated to building a digital library of the humanistic Respublica Litterarum. We now offer five collections as well as a growing data base (EVRECA) that contains words and names (with additional morphological and lexical data) linked to general and special dictionaries or encyclopedias of our digital library. These projects have been funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (German Research Foundation) from 1999 to the end of 2008. At present, the database project is integrated in the eAQUA enterprise funded by the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF). A new collection (ITALI) is under way thanks to support by the Istituto Italiano per gli Studi Filosofici. The copies we digitize are supplied by the Rare Book Division of the University of Mannheim Library. The Information Technology Center (Rechenzentrum) of the University of Mannheim administrates our web server.
