epistula124: traduzione italiana e il commento all’Epistula ad Lucilium 124 di Seneca

0

epistula124
Il sito epistula124 è stato progettato per ospitare la traduzione italiana e il commento all’Epistula ad Lucilium 124 di Seneca.
L’epistola in questione, riprendendo temi già trattati nelle lettere 106, 117, 118, 120 e 121, verte principalmente sull’idea stoica del sommo bene, che viene fatto coincidere con la virtù, e che – diversamente da come sostenuto dagli epicurei – non sarebbe percepibile con i sensi, bensì unicamente per mezzo della ragione.
Nel pensare il sommo bene come frutto dell’attività razionale, Seneca di fatto si appoggia ad una classificazione del mondo dei viventi che opera in chiave logocentrica, escludendo cioè dalla ‘cosmopoli’ stoica (abitata dagli uomini e dagli dèi, gli unici dotati di ratiogli animali ‘muti’, ai quali, se da un lato si attribuiscono forme specie-specifiche di bene relativo, dall’altro lato si nega la possibilità di raggiungere il bene assoluto.
La trattazione senecana sull’intellegibilità del bene è legata, fra le altre cose, al problema delle dotazioni percettive degli esseri viventi, disegnando così una sorta di zoo-psicologia comparata ante litteram.
Tale zoo-psicologia costituisce un importante punto di riferimento per chi voglia studiare e comprendere le ‘teorie della mente animale’ elaborate in seno allo stoicismo.
In particolare, la lettura e l’analisi di questa epistola possono essere intese come una sorta di ‘finestra’ sui saperi zoologici ed etologici del mondo antico e come un primo approccio al dibattito sull’intelligenza degli animali che ha infiammato le scuole filosofiche dell’antichità in età imperiale.
Il testo su cui sono stati condotti traduzione e commento è quello stabilito da L. D. Reynolds (L. Annaei Senecae ad Lucilium Epistulae Morales,Oxford 1965), una cui edizione digitale è disponibile sul sito del Packard Humanities Institute al seguente link:

Mitteilungen des Septuaginta-Unternehmens
Bild von MSU Band 30
Bei den Veröffentlichungen des Septuaginta-Unternehmens ist zwischen Editionen und wissen­schaft­lichen Unter­suchung­en zu unter­scheiden. Die Editionsreihe trägt den Titel: Septuaginta Vetus Testamentum Graecum auctoritate Academiae Scienti­arum Gottingensis editum. In dieser Reihe sind bislang 23 Bände, das sind knapp Zwei­drittel der Gesamt­aus­gabe, er­schienen. Mit dem 2004 publizierten ersten Teil­band des Rahlfs’schen Hand­schriften­ver­zeich­nis­ses in der Neu­be­ar­beit­ung von Detlef Fraenkel wurde eine Supplement­reihe zur Edition er­öffnet. Von den unter dem Gesamttitel Mitteilungen des Septuaginta-Unternehmens (MSU) erscheinen­den Unter­suchung­en, deren Schwer­punkt bis­her vor allem auf dem Ge­biet der Text- und Über­lieferungs­ge­schichte lag, werden die kürzeren Einzel­studien in den Nach­richten der Aka­demie der Wissen­schaften in Götting­en I. Phil.- hist. Klasse, die mono­graphisch­en Bei­träge in den Ab­hand­lungen der Aka­demie der Wissen­schaften I. Phil.- hist. Klasse ver­öffent­licht.

Within the body of publications produced by the Septuaginta-Unternehmen, one can distinguish between editions and studies. The series of editions is entitled Septuaginta. Vetus Testamentum Graecum auctoritate Academiae Scientiarum Gottingensis editum. At present, it comprises 23 volumes—which adds up to about two thirds of the complete Septuagint corpus. In 2004, a supplementary series to the edition was launched with the first volume of D. Fraenkel’s revised edition of A. Rahlfs’ Verzeichnis der griechischen Handschriften des Alten Testaments. Scholarly research on textual criticism and the transmission history of the Septuagint is published in the series Mitteilungen des Septuaginta-Unternehmens (MSU). This collective title is used to gathers studies that are published in the Nachrichten der Akademie der Wissenschaften in Göttingen I. Phil.-hist. Klasse (in the case of shorter studies), and in the Abhandlungen der Akademie der Wissenschaften I. Phil.-hist. Klasse (for monographs).

Gouden hoorn: tijdschrift over Byzantium = Golden horn: journal of Byzantium
ISSN: 0929-7820
This is the archive of Gouden Hoorn (Golden Horn), Journal of Byzantium, which was published by Godiva Éditions on the initiative of the Council of Independent Byzantinists (Onafhankelijk Byzantinologen Overleg, OBO), that was founded on 29th November, 1991. The OBO aims at informing and bringing together lovers of Byzantium. The OBO hoped to reach its goal by publishing Gouden Hoorn twice a year.
Gouden Hoorn was published in a paper version as well as on this website. We no longer publish the paper version, and since 2002 we have not published any new issue (9:1 was the last issue).
Gouden Hoorn was edited by Annabelle Parker and André de Raaij. Jan Pieter Kunst was webmaster of the old Gouden Hoorn site that was hosted on Isidore-website.

Assyrian and Babylonian Scholarly Text Catalogues: Medicine, Magic and Divination
Ed. by Steinert, Ulrike
Die babylonisch-assyrische Medizin in Texten und Untersuchungen, Vol. 9
ISBN: 978-1-5015-0491-4

Aims and Scope

The reconstruction of ancient Mesopotamian medical, ritual and omen compendia and their complex history is still characterised by many difficulties, debates and gaps due to fragmentary or unpublished evidence. This book offers the first complete edition of the Assur Medical Catalogue, an 8th or 7th century BCE list of therapeutic texts, which forms a core witness for the serialisation of medical compendia in the 1st millennium BCE. The volume presents detailed analyses of this and several other related catalogues of omen series and rituals, constituting the corpora of divination and healing disciplines. The contributions discuss links between catalogues and textual sources, providing new insights into the development of compendia between serialization, standardization and diversity of local traditions. Though its a novel corpus-based approach, this volume revolutionizes the current understanding of Mesopotamian medical texts and the healing disciplines of "conjurer" and "physician". The research presented here allows one to identify core text corpora for these disciplines, as well as areas of exchange and borrowings between them.

Ancient World Mapping Center: Maps for Texts

[First posted in AWOL 14 June 2017, updated 22 June 2018]

Maps for Texts
In this series, the Center compiles maps for ancient texts which can be usefully illustrated in this way.  Naturally, the likelihood is that in most, perhaps all, instances these texts were not originally accompanied by maps.  The series is openly licensed under Creative Commons BY-NC 4.0.  Please direct all questions or comments to awmc@unc.edu.

Completed:

Theophanes, Journeys between Hermopolis and Antioch
The Center’s single, static map (available via dropbox) plots Theophanes’ journeys between Hermopolis and Antioch in the early fourth century C.E., as recorded in the Rylands Papyri. The map is based on the edition by Colin Roberts (1952), and the translation by John Matthews, The Journey of Theophanes: Travel, Business, and Daily Life in the Roman East (2006). The name-forms and dates marked are as in the papyri.

Hierokles, Synekdemos
The Center’s single, interactive web map (available via the link above) follows the text of Hierokles, Synekdemos in Ernest Honigmann’s edition (Brussels, 1939), and aims to supersede his four maps.  With the Center’s Map Tiles as its base, the map marks all cities and regions which may identified and located with at least some confidence according to the Barrington Atlas and related publications listed below.  Greek names are transliterated as in the Barrington Atlas (see Directory, p. vii).  A full database lists all the place-names in the Synekdemos with references (thus including those that cannot be located and marked on the map).  In addition, the text of Honigmann’s edition of the Synekdemos (and of the geographic work of George of Cyprus) is accessible via the Center’s Dropbox.  On Hierokles and George of Cyprus, see further briefly, The Oxford Dictionary of Byzantium, ss. vv.

Ptolemy, Table of Important Cities
Two maps, each in two versions, are offered.  They are produced by Richard Talbert, Gabriel Moss, Alexandra Locking, Peter Raleigh, and the staff of the Center.  Both maps are based on the edition by Lutz Koch, Florian Mittenhuber, and Alfred Stückelberger in Ptolemaios Handbuch der Geographie, vol. 3 (Basel, 2009).  One map (labelled “ancient”) adopts Ptolemy’s projection as drawn by Alfred Stückelberger et al, ibid. vols. 1-2 (2006), using files kindly provided by them, with all sites marked at Ptolemy’s co-ordinates.  The other map (labelled “modern”, ending at longitude 90 degrees E) is based on Antiquity à-la-Carte and shows all the sites which can be located, positioning and naming them as in the Barrington Atlas.  For both maps, one version (labelled “original”) shows only sites originally included in the Table; the other version (labelled “all”) includes sites only added in some later manuscripts.  A searchable directory provides further information on all names in the Table, including the Barrington Atlas reference for each.
All files available for download via Dropbox.

Forthcoming:

Classica Cracoviensia
Rocznik Classica Cracoviensia został założony w roku 1995 z inicjatywy ówczesnego dyrektora Instytutu Filologii Klasycznej Uniwersytetu Jagiellońskiego, prof. dr hab. Stanisława Stabryły. Od roku 1996 funkcję redaktora naukowego pełni nieprzerwanie prof. dr hab. Jerzy Styka. Od samego początku Classica Cracoviensia były pomyślane jako forum współpracy naukowej Instytutu Filologii Klasycznej UJ z europejskimi ośrodkami uniwersyteckimi, rozwijającymi studia nad antyczną kulturą grecko-rzymską, w jej różnych kształtach – literackim, społeczno-politycznym, filozoficznym, religijnym, prawnym, artystycznym i oczywiście recepcyjnym – oddziaływania na nowożytną kulturę europejską. Organizowane cyklicznie konferencje, wspólnie podejmowane projekty badawcze, gościnne wykłady, inicjowane nowe serie wydawnicze – to niektóre przykłady tej współpracy, która wnosi istotny wkład w rozwój nauki o starożytności grecko-rzymskiej, ale także w równym stopniu zbliża ludzi i ma swój indywidualny wymiar w dziele jednoczenia Europy. Poprzez prezentację badań nad różnorodnymi postaciami kultury grecko-rzymskiej, dążymy do ukazania procesów kształtowania się tej kultury, złożoności zachodzących w niej przemian cywilizacyjnych, staramy się podkreślić jej uniwersalny charakter i jej inspirującą rolę w kształtowaniu się nowożytnej Europy. Przyjęta, bardzo szeroka formuła czasopisma, sprzyja badaniom interkulturowym i interdyscyplinarnym, umożliwiającym wieloaspektową i pogłębioną prezentację kulturowych zjawisk oraz występującego w antycznym świecie grecko-rzymskim dialogu kultur, uczy szacunku dla odmienności i różnorodności warsztatów badawczych, dostarcza argumentów służących obronie dziedzictwa antycznego we współczesnym świecie. Classica Cracoviensia są adresowane w pierwszym rzędzie do ludzi nauki, służą nowoczesnemu postępowi naukowemu i szerokiej wymianie poglądów w dziedzinie studiów nad starożytnością grecko-rzymską. Odpowiada temu językowa formuła czasopisma, publikowania artykułów w językach kongresowych, angielskim, niemieckim, francuskim i włoskim (wyjątkowo w języku polskim, w przypadku tomów in honorem alicuius, zawsze jednak z obszernym streszczeniem obcojęzycznym), powszechnie stosowanych w dyscyplinach starożytniczych. Kolejną grupę odbiorców stanowią studenci kierunków starożytniczych i wszyscy zainteresowani pogłębioną wiedzą o antycznej kulturze grecko-rzymskiej. Classica Cracoviensia wpisały się już z sukcesem w pejzaż naukowych europejskich wydawnictw i ich kolejne tomy odnaleźć można na półkach wielu bibliotek uniwersyteckich w Europie i w Ameryce Północnej.

Ancient Mesopotamian Gods and Goddesses
about the site, deities a-z, bibliography
The Mesopotamian literary corpus is one of the oldest literatures in the world. It is infused with the divine, because religion played a crucial part in the way Mesopotamians expressed their thoughts about human life. Mesopotamian religion was polytheistic, with a pantheon consisting of hundreds if not thousands of gods of varying importance. This website offers information about the fifty most important gods and goddesses and provides starting points for further research.

The Society has recently made a complete digital archive of all issues of the BNJ to 2007 freely available available to download. New and recent volumes will be made available five years after publication. In late 2011, large PDF files of entire volumes were made freely available on the society's webspace. In 2012, the volumes have been split into their constituent articles and made available to search via the google bar below.
Each volume can be accessed by clicking the links below. This will lead to a list of the individual articles in each, each of which can be individually dowloaded. You may download the whole volume but the files are very large and may take some time to download. All of the files are PDFs and will require a reader to access them. To download a reader for free (Adobe Acrobat) please click here.

The volumes are arranged chronologically. If you are looking for a specific subject then you can either consult the Index of BNJ contents 1903-2010 or use the google search bar...
This is a new resource and there are probably some errors within it. If you find any of these please report them to the BNS Webmasters

World Atlas of Language Structures (WALS)

Welcome to WALS Online

The World Atlas of Language Structures (WALS) is a large database of structural (phonological, grammatical, lexical) properties of languages gathered from descriptive materials (such as reference grammars) by a team of 55 authors.
The first version of WALS was published as a book with CD-ROM in 2005 by Oxford University Press. The first online version was published in April 2008. The second online version was published in April 2011.
The 2013 edition of WALS corrects a number of coding errors especially in Chapters 1 and 3. A full list of changes is available here.
Starting with this edition of WALS, there will not be specific editions every two or three years, but we will be updating it whenever corrections or additions are made. Changes in value assignment will be made transparent by showing a history on the respective pages.
WALS Online is a publication of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology. It is a separate publication, edited by Dryer, Matthew S. & Haspelmath, Martin (Leipzig: Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, 2013) The main programmer is Robert Forkel.

Love Archaeology Magazine
http://static.tumblr.com/ba7q97d/fzylvckcd/masthead_a.jpg 
Created and run by University of Glasgow archaeology postgrads, Love Archaeology Magazine is published twice a year.

We aim to provide a platform for aspiring researchers, but not necessarily a platform solely for new research. We believe that archaeology is a way of thinking about the world, and this can manifest itself through the study of the material remains of the past as easily as the culture of the present. As such, we strive to include both cutting-edge research alongside the musings of archaeologists and non-archaeologists alike which showcase the potential of archaeological modes of thought. Our tone is smart but fun, providing a bridge between a popular archaeology magazine and an academic journal.

In other words, anyone can submit! If you’ve got a great idea or even a finished piece, first check out our Style Guide (see link above) then email us at lovearchaeologymagazine@gmail.com

New Open Access Journal: Roman Roads Research Association Newsletter

Roman Roads Research Association Newsletter
Ivan Margary’s “Roman Roads in Britain”, last published in 1973, represented a fairly comprehensive assessment of the nation’s Roman road network as it was understood at the time. Unfortunately, it has all too often been assumed that after Margary’s work our knowledge and understanding of the Roman road network was reasonably complete, an assumption that has led to a lack of serious study within professional archaeology (with the notable exception of roads in Wales), and a failure to acknowledge that we are probably only reasonably certain of about 40% of the network at best.

For the last forty years and more, the serious study of Roman roads has largely been left to a handful of disparate individuals and small amateur groups, with little or no co-ordination or cooperation between them. Neither has it helped that the subject has, on occasions, attracted individuals whose enthusiasm has been rather more evident than their objectivity. The RRRA was formed to bring those disparate individuals together, and to coordinate a nationwide programme of research ensuring a consistent and high quality approach.

Epigraphischen Datenbank Heidelberg - Epigraphic Database Heidelberg (EDH)
http://edh-www.adw.uni-heidelberg.de/images/Athene.png
The Epigraphic Database Heidelberg contains the texts of Latin and bilingual (i.e. Latin-Greek) inscriptions of the Roman Empire. The epigraphic monuments are collected and kept up to date on the basis of modern research. With the help of search functions specific queries can be carried out - e.g. a search for words in inscriptions and / or particular descriptive data. The search results are often displayed together with photos and drawings.
The geographic focus is provided by the provinces of the Roman Empire. The total number of records rises continuously.
The Research Project is made up of four constituent databases

Die Epigraphische Datenbank Heidelberg beinhaltet die Texte der lateinischen und bilinguen (v.a. lateinisch-griechischen) Inschriften des römischen Reiches. Die epigraphischen Zeugnisse werden auf Grundlage aktueller Forschungsergebnisse erfasst und aktualisiert. Mit Hilfe der hier zur Verfügung gestellten Suchfunktionen können gezielte Abfragen - etwa nach bestimmten Wörtern in Inschriftentexten und/oder bestimmten Metadaten - durchgeführt werden. Die Suchergebnisse werden vielfach zusammen mit Fotos oder Zeichnungen präsentiert.
Der geographische Fokus liegt auf den Provinzen des römischen Reiches. Der Bestand wird kontinuierlich erweitert.
Das Forschungsprojekt setzt sich zusammen aus den vier Teildatenbanken
