      Open Access Journal: Bulletin of Information on Computing and Anthropology (BICA

      Bulletin of Information on Computing and Anthropology (BICA)
      The occasion for writing this piece was the editorial labour in preparing an online version of BICA The Bulletin of Information on Computing in Anthropology which is now available on the Internet.1 The original BICA was a pioneering serial,2 edited by John Davis, which appeared intermittently from 1984 to 1988. Its early editions are of continuing interest for a variety of reasons, as attested by the citation of its articles in mainstream journals.

      BICA was originally published on a more or less samizdat basis. It was not sold, but distributed to about 500 subscribers. Its primary purpose was to promote the use of technology in anthropological research. Topics ranged from discussions of the use of expert systems to elucidate marriage patterns and musical improvisations, to the general problems of using computers in the field (the importance of peanut butter as a means of extracting pests from within a computer is not to be overlooked)...

      The Digital Classicist Wiki

      The Digital Classicist Wiki
      The Digital Classicist is a web-based hub for scholars and students interested in the application of Humanities Computing to research into the ancient world. The main purpose of the site is to offer guidelines and suggestions of major technical issues. We shall also provide reports on events, publications (print and electronic), and other developments in the field. Criteria for inclusion will be the interest and expertise of collaborators, in general, and of the editors, in particular.

      The main website contains an annotated list of classical Projects that utilise computing technology, and links to freely available Tools and Resources of use to scholars engaging in such projects. This website will also publish stable versions of guidelines and reports from the Wiki FAQ: an interactive platform for the building of a Frequently Asked Questions list, with answers and other suggestions offered by members of the community, and collectively authored work-in-progress guidelines and reports.

      We seek to encourage the growth of a community of practice, which is open to everyone interested in the topic, regardless of skill or experience in technical matters, and language of contribution. As a general principle, key sections of the website or summaries of discussions will, where possible, be translated into the major languages of European scholarship: e.g. English, French, German, and Italian.

      The Digital Classicist is hosted by the Centre for Computing in the Humanities at King's College London, and the Stoa Consortium, University of Kentucky.

      Divination and Interpretation of Signs in the Ancient World

      Edited by Amar Annus

      Oriental Institute Seminars 6

      The concept of sign, a portent observed in the physical world, which indicates future events, is found in all ancient cultures, but was first developed in ancient Mesopotamian texts. This branch of Babylonian scientific knowledge extensively influenced other parts of the world, and similar texts written in Aramaic, Sanscrit, Sogdian, and other languages. These papers are based on talks presented at the seminar Science and Superstition: Interpretation of Signs in the Ancient World, held March 6-7, 2009, and investigate how much we know about the Babylonian theory and hermeneutics of omens and the scope of their possible influences on other cultures and regions.

      Fragmentary Texts Project

      Fragmentary Texts Collecting and representing fragments of lost authors and works

      ABOUT THIS SITE
      Fragmentary Texts is a project edited by Monica Berti and devoted to models and methodologies for collecting and representing Greek and Latin texts of classical antiquity that have been preserved in fragments.

      By “fragments” we mean both physical fragments – as, for example, fragments of architectural elements, scraps of papyri, or broken inscriptions – and indirect fragments, i.e. quotations by surviving authors, who quote, paraphrase, summarize or allude to authors and works that have not survived. Particular attention will be given to the category of “indirect fragments”, discussing its meaning and the complexity of the reconstruction of the relationship between a textual fragment and its source of transmission.

      Collecting fragments is a well-established tradition and the great enterprises of scholars from the Renaissance onward have permitted us to rediscover and preserve an inestimable cultural heritage otherwise lost and forgotten. At the same time, looking for remains of lost works is a very useful methodological exercise for practicing reconstruction on ancient testimonies, and it is also a stimulus for interdisciplinarity, given that an editor has to face a lot of problems deriving from the great variety of subjects and many different kinds of texts that usually form a collection of fragments.

      New technologies and the emerging digital repositories of classical sources are providing scholars with invaluable instruments for collecting and preserving ancient texts. These resources allow classicists to deal with challenging textual cases like fragments of lost works and authors.

      The main goal of this blog is to discuss models and tools for representing fragmentary texts in a digital library, building a collaborative environment for scholars and enthusiasts who are interested in the topic.

      Collection «Eikasmós Online»

      Collection «Eikasmós Online»
      The arab version of De differentiis febrium of Galen, edited by Claudio De Stefani, is the first issue of the Collection «Studi di Eikasmós Online».

      Galeni De differentiis febrium versio Arabica (Bologna 2004)

      Hunain ibn Ishâq di al-Hîra (808-873[?] A.D.), physician and philologist, author of original works and translations into Syriac and Arabic, was the most important arabic translator of the Middle Ages, and one of the best in the world. Because of this celebrity, many translations from Greek were wrongly attributed to him in the arabic mss. Most of his translations from Greek concern the works of Galen of Pergamon (128/131-210/213 A.D.). Here is the translation of one of Galen’s pathologic works on fevers (in two books): it was largely spread in the byzantine Greece (many Greek mss. preserve this work and several summaries on the same subject), in Western Europe (there are some latin translations from Greek, for example that of Burgundius), and in the Arabic East, where the galenic doctrines on fevers were going to survive for a long time. This electronic edition is interesting for people working on Galen, Arabists, historians of medicine.

      Hunain ibn Ishâq di al-Hîra (808-873[?] d.C.), medico e filologo, autore di opere originali e di versioni in siriaco e in arabo, fu il più grande traduttore arabo medioevale, ed uno dei più grandi in assoluto nella storia mondiale. A documento di questa fama, gli furono anche attribuite nei mss. arabi varie traduzioni dal greco che non gli appartengono. La maggior parte delle sue versioni dal greco riguarda il corpus delle opere di Galeno di Pergamo (128/131-210/213 d. C.). Qui, presentiamo la traduzione di un’opera patologica di Galeno sulle febbri (in due libri), che ebbe ampia fortuna nella Grecia bizantina, come testimonia il numero abbastanza elevato di mss. greci che la tramandano e vari sunti su questo tema; in Occidente, come mostrano le traduzioni latine dal greco, a partire da quella di Burgundio; e infine nell’Oriente arabo, dove le dottrine galeniche sulle febbri erano destinate a lunga vita. L’edizione consultabile in forma elettronica può risultare utile sia agli studiosi di Galeno, sia agli arabisti, sia agli storici della medicina.

      Elle accueille des études sur les exégèses littéraires, la lexicographie, la grammaire, le droit, la religion, la géographie, l'historiographie, la médecine, l'astronomie, la musique, les mathématiques, les sciences naturelles...
      Outre ces domaines précis, des problématiques transversales s'intègrent également dans le cadre de la revue: stratifications des savoirs, transmission, enrichissement, mais aussi polémiques scientifiques ou encore problèmes d'édition de texte.
      Cette revue s'insère dans les axes de recherches de l'UMR 5189 HiSoMA; elle est publiée avec la collaboration des services informatiques de la MOM.

      La revue publiera trois formes de travaux:
      - des articles proprement dits
      - des actes de journées d'études ou de tables rondes
      - des comptes rendus

      Volume 1 (2009)

      Open Access Journal: De lingua Latina

      Revue de Linguistique Latine du Centre Alfred Ernout De lingua Latina
      ISSN 1760-6322
      Il s’agissait d’abord de combler un vide : l’absence de revue française spécifiquement consacrée à la linguistique latine et la rareté générale de telles publications à l’étranger. Cette revue répond surtout à un besoin et à un souhait : la diffusion des travaux menés au sein de nombreuses équipes françaises et étrangères. Une communauté scientifique s’est, en effet, constituée au fil des dernières décennies à l’occasion de nombreuses rencontres de linguistique latine qui ont eu lieu dans l’Europe entière. En outre, le Centre Alfred Ernout a constitué depuis trente ans un point de ralliement de ces chercheurs, en organisant des cycles de conférences, des journées d’études et des colloques biennaux. La présente revue se veut le reflet de ces rencontres et collaborations européennes et américaines. Seuls, jusqu’à présent, avaient été publiés, parmi les travaux du centre Alfred Ernout, les actes des colloques biennaux et de tables rondes dans la collection Lingua Latina aux P.U.P.S. Il restait à publier les ateliers et les conférences. Outre la publication des travaux du centre Alfred Ernout, la revue se propose de diffuser des articles scientifiques de haut niveau à la pointe de la recherche en linguistique latine, de faire des mises au point sur des questions délicates en actualisant le débat, et, de manière plus générale, d’assurant la formation des étudiants et des jeunes chercheurs. Elle cherchera aussi à donner à ces derniers un espace pour la publication de leurs travaux.

      La présente revue s’ouvre à toutes les orientations théoriques, à tous les domaines et elle accueille des articles dans toutes les langues.

      Les autres langues anciennes ou modernes trouveront également leur place dans une confrontation avec le latin et les langues italiques : cette revue souhaite, en effet, être un espace d’échange et apporter sa contribution à la recherche linguistique en général.

      La périodicité sera de deux numéros par an, auxquels viendront s’ajouter des numéros thématiques.

      Open Access Journal: Interférences

      Interférences : la revue électronique du GDR Ars Scribendi
      La revue en ligne Interférences Ars scribendi a pour vocation de restituer dans sa globalité le phénomène de l’écriture à Rome. Il s’agit à la fois de replacer le corpus scripturaire par rapport à ses enjeux de production en le réinsérant dans ses conditions d’apparition, de reconstituer le statut que se reconnaît et réclame l’auteur vis-à-vis de sa propre production, de définir les mécanismes de relecture / réécriture qui régissent les relations aux œuvres antérieures, de mettre en évidence les théorisations, implicites et explicites, dont ces textes ont fait l’objet.

      Rendre compte dans son ensemble et dans une diachronie longue de la polyphonie complexe de la pratique de l’écriture à Rome, c’est rendre compte d’un réseau d’interactions, d’une série d’interférences.

      Numéro 4 / 2006
      Transferts

      Ce nouveau numéro d’Interférences Ars scribendi sur les mécanismes de transfert dans le monde romain repose sur la publication d’un colloque tenu à l’École normale supérieure Lettres et Sciences humaines en octobre 2005. Conformément à l’usage qui est désormais celui de notre revue, il donne accès aux contributions de chacun au fur et à mesure qu’elles nous parviennent, afin de fournir aux lecteurs le plus rapidement possible le reflet de nos travaux. Nous vous invitons donc à visiter régulièrement notre site pour découvrir la suite de cette publication.

      Open Access Journal: Camenae

      Camenae
      La revue Camenae publie en ligne des numéros thématiques, reflétant les intérêts de l’EA 4081 « Rome et ses renaissances »), c’est-à-dire l’exploration de la philosophie, de la littérature et des arts du monde romain antique, de la relation entre ces disciplines et de leur réception au Moyen Âge et à la Renaissance.

      Elle est placée sous les auspices des « Camènes », ces nymphes prophétiques des bois et des sources, bien vite assimilées aux Muses par les Romains et tout aussi familières aux humanistes, pour que ce titre illustre à la fois la latinité, les « nœuds entre les arts » et la translatio imperii et studii, qui seront au cœur de nos préoccupations.

      La revue n’est pas pour autant réservée aux membres de l’Equipe, mais est au contraire heureuse d’accepter toute proposition pour des numéros construits autour d’un thème précis et conçus dans le même esprit, pour une approche de la culture classique (en latin et aussi en vulgaire) dans la pluridisciplinarité et la diachronie ; nous publions volontiers aussi le cas échéant des numéros réservés à l’Antiquité, ou au Moyen Âge ou à la Renaissance. Nous sommes également ravis de mêler, dans les numéros de Camenae, les textes de collègues chevronnés à des travaux de collègues plus jeunes. Les langues européennes les plus courantes (français, anglais, allemand, néerlandais, italien, espagnol) sont en usage pour les contributions.
