Open Access Journal: Ephemeris

$
0
0
Ephemeris is published twice a year and seeks to offer an opportunity for those students interested in Classical studies to publish their work in an undergraduate forum.
Ephemeris was the first intercollegiate journal of its kind and promotes the coming together of history, literature, philosophy, religion, art, and architecture in a way that is both analytical and creative. As is an objective of Classical Studies departments, Ephemeris fosters an attitude about and an appreciation for criticism and interpretation of the Classical civilizations. It is our hope that students, faculty and staff continue to be inspired by these ancient societies. 
Funded by a grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to the Five Colleges of Ohio (Next Steps in the Next Generation Library: Integrating Digital Collections into the Liberal Arts Curriculum, 2010).

[First posted in AWOL 29 June 2017, updates 31 August 2018]

Prazské egyptologické studie / Prague Egyptological Studies PES
ISSN: 1214-3189
ISSN: 1801-3899
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 NPAPH project team together with students of the University of Applied Sciences Utrecht and the HKU University of the Arts Utrecht have created two short films about the excavations at Tell es-Sultan in the 1950s. Both films are based on records gathered by Jericho off the Record.
    The photos, slides, 16mm film, diaries, letters and interviews with former participants provide an insight into life at the dig. One of the films describes the experience through the eyes of staff members who mainly came from Western Europe and North America. The other film is form the perspective of local labourers who lived in Jericho or in the nearby refugee camp.
    All events, views and opinions expressed in the films are based on real events and are informed by records gathered by NPAPH.

    Beth Mardutho: eBethArké Digital Collection
    Beth Mardutho: The Syriac Institute [www.bethmardutho.org] seeks to promote the study and preservation of the Syriac heritage and language, and to facilitate opportunities for people to pursue the study of this ancient legacy globally. The eBethArké (Syriac for “digital library”) project was envisaged by George A. Kiraz in 2000 to become an open-access online library of Syriac books and material on Syriac studies. Beth Mardutho quickly partnered with Princeton Theological Seminary (PTS), The Catholic University of America, Duke University and Brigham Young University and began scanning books. In summer of 2018, PTS installed Internet Archive’s table top scribe system at Beth Mardutho to digitize George A. Kiraz’s private collection and other public domain texts at the Beth Mardutho Research Library for Internet Archive and Theological Commons.

    The Non-Professional Archaeological Photographs project (NPAPH)
    NPAPH Project
    The Non-Professional Archaeological Photographs project has the aim to preserve non-professional documentation of archaeological campaigns – prior to the 1980s – to the future and make it accessible to the public via digital archives. Furthermore, the project pleads for an international collaboration between archaeological institutions in order to connect these digital archives and bring them under the attention of the public by the use of this website.
    The term ‘non-professional’ refers to records made by visitors or participants of excavations who were not part of the trained staff, but who assisted as part of their continuing education or out of interest, for instance students, volunteers, reporters or sponsors. Secondly, this category of documentation includes also the private photos, slides or films made at the excavation by the archaeological staff.

    Gorffennol: The Swansea University History and Classics Online Journal and Blog
    Gorffennol
    Gorffennol is the Welsh word for ‘past’, and is the name of the online student journal of the History Department at Swansea University. It is run by an editorial team consisting of nine students and one member of staff from the Department, producing a yearly journal as well as ad hoc blog posts.
    The student-led online journal will be published annually, showcasing articles from postgraduate historians as well as outstanding student assignments from the medieval, early modern, and modern periods. This journal will not only display excellent post- and undergraduate work, but also help our students increase their employability by providing them with editorial experience.
    Regular blog posts by students and staff will include short articles on historical topics, module-specific research, and posts showing students’ experiences of modules in our Department.
    The editorial team are being guided by Dr Charlie Rozier as supporting lecturer and Amy Megson as Chief Editor.

                Trismegistos Online Publications Special Series (TOP SS)

                Often a PhD thesis for some reason cannot be published immediately. In the years that follow, the authors do not find the time to revise the manuscript as they wanted. This in turn causes problems because new literature appears or the evidence of new sources needs to be incorporated. As a result, the manuscript often remains unpublished and the valuable insights risk to be inaccessible and thus lost for scholarship.
                To prevent this, Trismegistos Online Publications have decided to open up a new 'Special Series', where valuable PhD theses or other scholarly manuscripts can be published with an ISBN number.
                Contributors can send in manuscripts in Word or PDF format to mark.depauw@arts.kuleuven.be. The editor will consult experts about the quality of the manuscript without taking into account whether it is abreast of recent scholarly literature or developments.

                We are proud to announce the recent enhancement of the lexical basis of Lemlat with the Du Cange Glossary.

                Lemlat is a morphological analyser and lemmatiser of Latin provided with a large lexical basis including:
                - the collation of three Latin dictionaries (Georges and Georges, 1913-1918; Glare, 1982; Gradenwitz, 1904): 43,432 lemmas [including also relations between lemmas based on derivational morphology];
                Onomasticon by Forcellini (1940): 26,250 lemmas;
                - Glossarium Mediae et Infimae Latinitatis by Du Cange (1883-1887): 82,556 lemmas.

                Enlarging the lexical basis of Lemlat with the Du Cange Glossary significantly increases its coverage of a wide span of Latin texts from different eras.

                Information about Lemlat can be found at www.lemlat3.eu.
                The database and binaries of Lemlat are available at https://github.com/CIRCSE/LEMLAT3

                TIMOTHÉE DE MILET: Le poète et le musicien
                Timothée de Milet
                Qui connaît Timothée de Milet, pourtant l’un des plus grands musiciens et poètes grecs de la fin du Ve siècle avant J.-C. et de la première moitié du IVe ? Même la découverte, en Égypte, d’un important papyrus de ses Perses ne lui a pas rendu la place qu’il méritait.
                Le présent livre n’en sera que plus utile. Réédités, traduits, commentés, tous les fragments de Timothée, dont un fragment musical, grâce à lui deviennent accessibles. Il offre également la synthèse la plus complète sur un...

                Tailored to the OCR Latin AS and A Level specifications from 2019–2021

                Cicero composed his incendiary Philippics only a few months after Rome was rocked by the brutal assassination of Julius Caesar. In the tumultuous aftermath of Caesar’s death, Cicero and Mark Antony found themselves on opposing sides of an increasingly bitter and dangerous battle for control. Philippic 2 was a weapon in that war.

                Conceived as Cicero’s response to a verbal attack from Antony in the Senate, Philippic 2 is a rhetorical firework that ranges from abusive references to Antony’s supposedly sordid sex life to a sustained critique of what Cicero saw as Antony’s tyrannical ambitions. Vituperatively brilliant and politically committed, it is both a carefully crafted literary artefact and an explosive example of crisis rhetoric. It ultimately led to Cicero’s own gruesome death.

                This course book offers a portion of the original Latin text, vocabulary aids, study questions, and an extensive commentary. Designed to stretch and stimulate readers, Ingo Gildenhard’s volume will be of particular interest to students of Latin studying for A-Level or on undergraduate courses. It extends beyond detailed linguistic analysis to encourage critical engagement with Cicero, his oratory, the politics of late-republican Rome, and the transhistorical import of Cicero’s politics of verbal (and physical) violence.

                Découverte papyrologique majeure des années 1930, le traité grec Sur l’exil du philosophe et sophiste gaulois Favorinos d’Arles (vers 80-150/160), qui, jusqu’alors, n’était connu que par quelques citations, fut identifié au verso d’un rouleau du IIIe siècle conservé à la Bibliothèque Vaticane (P. Vatic. Gr. 11), qui contenait au recto des registres fonciers en rapport avec la Marmarique. Représentative de la Deuxième Sophistique et du bilinguisme culturel de maints érudits du IIe siècle, cette œuvre n’avait jamais encore fait l’objet d’une étude d’ensemble en langue française.
