Tamid: Revista Catalana d’Estudis Hebraics
Print ISSN: 1138-5561

Tamid ofereix un recull anual de treballs originals dels membres de la Societat Catalana d’Estudis Hebraics dels diferents camps o èpoques en què solen dividir-se els estudis hebraics: l’època biblicotalmúdica, l’edat mitjana (amb la vasta producció cultural dels jueus de la Catalunya medieval) i els temps moderns (incloent-hi l’estudi de la literatura contemporània en llengua hebrea). Els articles que conté aquesta publicació són el fruit d’investigadors que treballen aquests camps d’una manera específica, coneixedors de primera mà de la documentació històrica i filològica pertinent i assabentats dels estudis més recents en la matèria. Però al mateix temps, Tamid inclou, traduïts al català, els treballs d’erudits de fora que, pel coneixement aprofundit que tenen d’algun tema, mereixen ser coneguts entre nosaltres.

Hittite Epigraphic Findings In The Ancient Near East

Hittite Epigraphic Findings In The Ancient Near East

The present web-site has been developed with the purpose of creating a general geographic map of the epigraphic findings belonging to the Hittite Kingdom (1600 – 1150 BC). The findings listed here concern texts, seals, and inscribed objects written either in Akkadic or Hittite.

Data come from more than 70 archaeological sites spread over a territory extending from the Western Anatolian coast to the Tigris valley and from the Northern Anatolian coast to the Syro-Lebanese border. 

The web-site and its contents have been created and are currently curated by Dr. Dario Fossati. The page was realized as part of the project "Creazione di una mappa interattiva dei ritrovamenti epigrafici nei siti anatolici e siriani sotto controllo ittita" and has been supervised by Professor Franca Pecchioli Daddi of the University of Florence.

It is part of the research project PRIN 2009 "Modelli di costruzione fisica ed ideologica del territorio e identità culturali: città sacre, santuari, complessi funerari in Siria, Anatolia e Transcaucasia nelle Et� del Bronzo e del Ferro", supervised by Professor Stefania Mazzoni.

Nestle-Aland 28 Online

Nestle-Aland Novum Testamentum Graece

The 28th edition

The 28th edition of the Nestle-Aland had to accomplish two different tasks. First, the apparatus had to be revised thoroughly to give it more clarity and make it easier to use. Secondly, the text-critical in-sights and decisions resulting from work on the Editio Critica Maior of the Greek New Testament had to be incorporated. As a consequence of these alterations, which so far concern only the Catholic Letters, the Nestle-Aland has for the first time in its history a different presentation for different parts of the text. The Catholic Letters were revised according to a fundamentally new concept which in the long run will be adopted for the entire edition. The revision of the remaining texts was confined to a thorough inspection and rearrangement of the apparatus, while the basic structure was left untouched. Another important innovation is that from now on the Nestle-Aland will not appear only as a printed book, but also in digital form.
Changes in NA28
1. Revision and Correction of the Whole Edition

• Newly discovered Papyri listed
• Distinction between consistently cited witnesses of the first and second order abandoned
• Apparatus notes systematically checked
• Imprecise notes abandoned
• Previously concatenated notes now cited separately
• Inserted Latin texts reduced and translated
• References thoroughly revised
