MELA Notes: The Journal of the Middle East Librarians Association
ISSN 0364-2410

Middle East Librarians Association
The Middle East Librarians Association begins to publish MELA Notes as part of its reason for being. If this publication will continue to be read it is because we now encourage you to recall us to our purposes by your contributions and notices, and because you heartily do so. Our gratitude to the Officers and other lead-off writers. Suffice the Editor’s fingerprints to be his faithful signature.
We “People of the Book” have special and professional ties with the civilizations of the Middle East especially since the rise of Islam. The many streams of consciousness of which we are a part long ago interested the rest of the international community, so we gather the books and make bibliophiles! Our imperial languages of past and recent history mellow as they bend to the task of interpretation and cooperation. Herewith please read our stated objectives:
It shall be the purpose of the Middle East Librarians Association to facilitate communication among Members through meetings and publications; to improve the quality of area librarianship through the development of standards for the profession and education of Middle East library specialists; to compile and disseminate information concerning Middle East libraries and collections and represent the judgment of the Members in matters affecting them; to encourage cooperation among Members and Middle East libraries, especially in the acquisition of materials and the development of bibliographic controls; to cooperate with other library and area organizations in projects of mutual concern and benefit; to promote research in and development of indexing and automated techniques as applied to Middle East materials.
James W. Pollock (Indiana University Library, Bloomington) — Editor, MELA Notes, in the first number (Fall 1973).

“Comprehensive Odyssey”, a digital critical repository of the Odyssey and its sources: perspectives and consequences.
Doctoral ThesisDoctor of Philosophy
This dissertation includes a digital proof of concept called the “Comprehensive Odyssey”, which provides the text of the first 105 lines of the Odyssey, the secondary sources for each line and the scholia. This digital project was the focus of an analysis of the possibilities of the digital medium to produce a digital critical edition or rather a digital critical repository of the Homeric poems and their indirect tradition. The dissertation presents all the stages in this analysis. As this edition deals with Homer’s Odyssey, one chapter here takes into consideration the present situation in Homeric scholarship. The analysis also embraces an overview of the theory of oral composition, traditional referentiality, notional fixity and the process from oral to print to digital, bearing in mind that the project deals with a poem whose origin is not in the form of a written composition, but of an oral composition in performance. To assess the possibilities of creating a digital project concerning Homer, a review has been carried out of digital projects in Classics, some of which are centred on Homer. We also discuss the theories both of digital editing and of textual editing. Assessing digital theories helps when deciding about which framework to use for a digital project, and it was what assisted us in understanding the difficulties that would have to be overcome in order to make this project feasible. Moreover, this dissertation includes a detailed overview of all the technical challenges encountered while producing it, by this meaning the encoding process with XML and TEI and the visualisation process with XSLT. One chapter aims to provide examples of research that can stem from the collection of secondary sources and their understanding as fragmentary authors, together with an awareness of the problems arising from the creation of an edition from printed critical editions. The purpose of this dissertation is to assess the chances that this proof of concept may become a fully functional project and help in understanding the Homeric tradition. Most importantly, this proof of concept would be a never-ending repository which, with the help of encoding in XML and TEI, would always remain open to changes and improvements. The hindrances that the digital medium faces, such as copyright and ‘comprehensiveness’, are also pointed out. The concept of crowdsourcing is discussed, as it seems that it might serve to complete the encoding of all the sources of the “Comprehensive Odyssey”. Finally, the outcomes that might result from the above-mentioned ‘voyage’ are examined, leading to the conclusion that a project such as the one we envisaged is too ambitious, since it contains several different aspects within one project, yet is not a failure. It is a worthwhile journey that helps us understand the importance of studying orality in connection with collaboration in the digital medium and the value of studies on quotations and fragmentary authors for the secondary sources.

Antiquité et traduction: De l'Égypte ancienne à Jérôme
Antiquité et traduction
La traduction est aujourd’hui omniprésente et indispensable pour permettre la communication entre les peuples et les cultures. C’est pourtant une activité multimillénaire, qui n’a pas toujours revêtu les mêmes formes ni connu les mêmes enjeux. L’histoire de la traduction, partie intégrante de la discipline que l’on appelle la traductologie, permet de mieux cerner les contextes culturels dans lesquels s’inscrit la traduction et de suivre l’évolution des réflexions concernant cet objet polym...

Translation is everywhere today and is essential to allow people and cultures to communicate. Yet, this activity goes back thousands of years and it has not always assumed the same form, nor have the stakes always been the same. The history of translation, which is part and parcel of the discipline called “translation studies”, makes it possible to have a better understanding of the cultural contexts in which translation is embedded and of the changing reflections about this multi-faceted ...

Asia Anteriore Antice: Journal of Ancient Near Eastern Cultures (AsiAna)
ISSN: 2611-8912
Page Header Logo
Asia Anteriore Antica (AsiAnA) is an international Journal of Ancient Near Eastern Cultures studies founded and edited by scholars of different disciplines and approaches (philology, linguistics, history, archaeology), and cooperating in common researches and field projects based on an interdisciplinary perspective. 
FOCUS
Asia Anteriore Antica (AsiAnA) focuses on the variegated scenario of the emergence, development and crises of the ancient Near East cultures analysed in the plurality of their distinct and intertwining characters, languages, writing and literacy, administration and material culture, arts and politics, economy and trade, ideology and religion. All these lements shaped a civilization which strongly impacted on the history of the ancient world.  Exploring this plurality of issues from different perspectives can add to our understanding of the social dynamics and the spatial and chronological trajectories that forged the Near Eastern cultures over a long duration. 
AIM
Asia Anteriore Antica (AsiAnA) will present studies in different disciplines, Hittitology, Assyriology, Semitistics, History, Archaeology and Art History of the ancient Near East aiming to diffuse the results of researches such as excavation reports, edition of epigraphic sources, studies on philological data, visual arts, archaeology and archaeometry. With the intent of confronting different scientific voices of these disciplines and crossing their traditional borders the journal will supply a handy tool of scholarly information on various subjects, open to the international debate and innovative theoretical issues.

Folia Electronica Classica
http://bcs.fltr.ucl.ac.be/fe/images/bcs.PNG
En réponse à une suggestion de Jean Schumacher, à l'époque responsable du service informatique de la Faculté de Philosophie et Lettres, la Bibliotheca Classica Selecta (BCS) tente depuis juin 2001 à Louvain l'expérience d'une revue électronique consacrée au monde classique et entièrement libre d'accès : les Folia Electronica Classica. Pour l'instant, la nouvelle revue propose des articles relativement généraux, rédigés en français et susceptibles d'intéresser un large public ; si elle s'adresse parfois à des spécialistes, elle vise davantage les professeurs du secondaire, les étudiants, voire les internautes cultivés. Son orientation n'est pas encore bien définie, et une période de rodage sera probablement nécessaire avant d'y voir plus clair...

An Archive of Animations/Cartoons of Ancient Greece & Rome: From the 1920s Through Today
Ancient Greece and Rome have provided fertile hunting grounds for animated subject matter since the very inception of the form.
So what if the results wind up doing little more than frolic in the pastoral setting? Witness 1930’s Playful Pan, above, which can basically be summed up as Silly Symphony in a toga (with a cute bear cub who looks a lot like Mickey Mouse and some flame play that prefigures The Sorcerer’s Apprentice…)
Others are packed with history, mythic narrative, and period details, though be forewarned that not all are as visually appealing as Steve Simons’ Hoplites! Greeks at War, part of the Panoply Vase Animation Project.
Some series, such as the Asterix movies and Aesop and Sona staple of The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show from 1959 to 1962have been the gateways through which many history lovers’ curiosity was first roused.
(Russian animator Anatoly Petrov’s erotic shorts for Soyuzmultfilm may rouse other, er, curiosities, and are definitely NSFW.)
And then there are instant classics like 2004’s It's All Greek to Scooby in which “Shaggy's purchase of a mysterious amulet only serves to cause a pestering archaeologist and centaur to chase him.”  (Ye gods…)
Senior Lecturer of Classical and Mediterranean Studies at Vanderbilt, Chiara Sulprizio, has collected all of these and more on her blog, Animated Antiquity.
Beginning with the 2-minute fragment that’s all we have left of Winsor McCay’s 1921 The Centaurs, Sulprizio shares some of her favorite cartoon representations of ancient Greece, Rome, and beyond. Her areas of professional specializationgender and sexuality, Greek comedy, and Roman satireare well suited to her chosen hobby, and her commentary doubles down on historical context to include the history of animation.
The appearance of cartoon stars like Daffy Duck, Tom and Jerry, and Popeye further demonstrates this antique subject matter’s sturdiness. TED-Ed and the BBC may view the genre as an excellent teaching tool, but there’s nothing stopping the animator from shoehorning some fabrications in amongst the buxom nymphs and buff gladiators.
(Raise your hand if your mother ever sacrificed you on the altar to Spinachia, goddess of spinach, in hopes that she might unleash a mushroom cloud of super-atomic power in your puny bicep.)
You’ll find a number of entries featuring the work of Japanese and Russian animators, including Thermae Romae, part of the juggernaut that’s sprung from Mari Yamazaki’s popular graphic novel series and Icarus and the Wise Men from the legendary Fyodor Khitruk, whose retelling of the myth sent a message about freedom from the Soviet Union, circa 1976.
Begin your decade-by-decade explorations of Chiara Sulprizio’s animated antiquities here or suggest that a missing favorite be added to the collection. (We vote for this one!)

 Mètis
ISSN :(Édition imprimée) : 1105-2201 
La collection Mètis est née en 1986 d’une collaboration entre hellénistes grecs et français. Elle s’est donné comme but d’étudier l’Antiquité grecque en se plaçant dans la perspective d’une anthropologie historique du monde grec ancien, tout en gardant le lien avec les disciplines érudites (philologie, histoire, archéologie, etc.), en prenant compte les apports de diverses sciences humaines (ethnologie, sociologie, linguistique, psychologie, psychanalyse). Elle a plus récemment pris le parti d’interroger aussi les cultures romaine et byzantine.

De dimension internationale, elle ouvre ses publications à cinq langues (français, grec, anglais, italien, allemand) et son comité de lecture se compose de spécialistes originaires de divers pays européens (France, Grèce, Italie, Allemagne, Angleterre, etc.), ainsi que des États-Unis.
Les numéros de la première série (de 1986 à 1998) sont disponibles sur Persée. [See below]

Mètis est née d’une collaboration entre hellénistes grecs et français. Dans la perspective d’une anthropologie historique centrée sur l’antiquité grecque, elle s’est récemment élargie à l’étude des mondes anciens, en particulier grec et romain. Tout en intégrant les disciplines érudites (philologie, histoire, archéologie, épigraphie), elle s’applique à prendre en compte des apports des sciences sociales (ethnologie, sociologie, linguistique, psychologie, psychanalyse).

Biblioteca Digital Ovidiana

The Ovidian Digital Library (Biblioteca Digital Ovidiana, BDO) is a website devoted to the illustrated work of the Roman poet Publius Ovidius Naso, that displays the results of the a research project focused on the collection, study and digitalization of all the data and illustrations of all the copies of the editions of Ovid printed between the 15th and 19th centuries, currently preserved in public and private libraries in Spain.
This digital library’s goal is to collocate both the bibliographic information and the iconographic study of the book illustrations in one place. As a nationwide project, the BDO aims to become a powerful instrument for scholarship on the illustrations of Ovid’s works and of mythological iconography, and at the same time, act as a strong medium for recovering, appraisement and disseminating Spain’s bibliographic heritage.
The information contained in the BDO comes firstly from a thorough study of the illustrated editions of the works of Ovid, and secondly from the exhaustive examination of specific copies (specimens) preserved in Spanish libraries. Finally and most importantly, the BDO’s information comes from the study of the books’ illustrations and their iconography.
So, the BDO project could be regarded as a research project on patrimony, bibliography, Classical tradition, and the reception of literary works. The BDO provides a way to achieve bibliographical expertise and a deeper knowledge about the illustrated works of Ovid and their diffusion around Europe during the 15th to the 19th centuries.

      Non-Professional Archaeological Photographs-project
      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.
      These digital photo archives are furnished by the participating institutions. By selecting an archive, one can view and admire photographs made by ‘non-professionals’ in the past. If there are any queries, remarks or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact the project organisation.

      Seleucid Coins Online News: 4,450 Seleucid coins from the Bibliothèque nationale de France added to SCO

      4,450 Seleucid coins from the Bibliothèque nationale de France added to SCO 

      This morning I received a new spreadsheet from Julien Olivier of the Bibliothèque nationale de Francewith approximately 6,500 coins connected to URIs defined in PELLA and Seleucid Coins Online. Some 2,000 Alexanders from the BnF have been incorporated in PELLA for quite some time, but we are happy to announce this latest export includes 4,450 coins from the Seleucid Empire. This nearly doubles the number of specimens available in SCO. The ANS has contributed about 4,800 itself. There are now nearly 9,700 physical coins linked to about 2,500 parent types in SCO.

      Furthermore, all of the coins from the BnF are photographed and high resolution imagery is available through the IIIF protocol.

      SC 379 (Antiochus I tetradrachm) is one of the best represented specimens.
