Un antiguo término religioso occidental en el ritual de Iguuium: umbro prinuvatus
No full textUmbrian prinuvatus, usually translated as ‘legati, ministri’, has not yet received a convincing explanation. We seek to associate it in our paper with I.E. *wāt-, which we do not fail to find among the Western languages, i.e., O. Ir. fáith, Lat. uātes ‘poet’: O. Germ. *woða (cf. O. Eng. wōd, O. Ic. ōðr, ‘inspired’, etc.). If so, the Iguvinian Tables would provide us with another noteworthy lexical archaism.No disponibl
La oposición aspectual griega presente/aoristo, examinada de nuevo
No full textThe author examines his earliest studies on the subject in the light of subsequent research. He concludes that the aorist is a positive term of aspectual opposition not concerning momentary action, which is a contextual value, but «action with a term». The present is a negative term; along with the concept of «action without a term» (from which duration derives) there are many neutral cases.No disponibl
Italic e/iste, Hispano-Celtic iśTe
No full textDespite numerous attempts to provide a satisfactory etymology for Lat. iste (and therefore also for its Italic cognates), no commonly accepted account has emerged. In this paper the previous scholarship is reviewed and new evident from Celtic is considered. It is proposed that Lat. iste and cognates were formed from the fusion of the masc. nom. sg. form of the originally deictic pronominal stem *ei̭- and the enclitic connective*-te. At a later date the form was reanalysed as based upon a stem *e/ist-.No disponibl
Neue Orpheusverse auf dem Derveni-Papyrus
No full textThe Papyrus found in 1962 contains a commentary on an Orphic Theogony including the quotations of more than two dozen epic verses of «Orpheus», several of them being already known as such, whilst others are new. Amongst these are five verses known hitherto only from «Homer»: two of them were from the very beginning acknowledged as «Orpheus», the resting ones being considered as quotations from Homer, against the Commentator’s assertion. In the following paper it will be demonstrated that these verses, too, are «Orpheus». The clue to the problem’s solution: The Last Homeric Poet is a member of the famous γένος Λυκομιδῶν in Phlya in Attica, and since this Genos had of old a genuine Orpheus-Traditio, there are more traces of this kind of poetry in the Last Poet’s components in «Homer» than is generally realized.No disponibl
La estructura formal de la comparación en las Argonáuticas de Apolonio de Rodas
No full textIn this paper, the author analyses the formal structure of the comparisons made in book I of Apollonius’ Argonautica. The study is developed on two levels: 1) A formal analysis of isolated comparisons and of couples or chains of similes. Attention is focused on the relationship between the compared terms and the vehicle of the comparison. 2) A formal analysis of the type of context in which the similes are inserted, in order to determine their narrative function.No disponibl
Algunas figuras mitológicas en Quinto de Esmirna
No full textQuintus has stressed the importance of certain divinities such as Eos, Horae, and Themis, which occupy a secondary place in Homer. This paper demonstrates the innovations made by the epic poet in certain aspects (genealogy, function, vocabulary) and examines possible influences (several authors, notions of his age, etc.) upon him.No disponibl
Rodio εσπραΤεν
No full textThe presence of the infinitive εσπραΤεν in a Rhodian inscription causes difficulties as far as its comparison with other forms of the same origin, always making use of ˂T˃. The author of this paper considers that ˂T˃ could be an approximative grapheme denoting /tg/. This assumption implies that /tg/ would have existed in Rhodian at least as far back as the fifth century B.C. In addition, the forms Δευς and τοζ(ε) (also Rhodian) may support the existence of /dz/ during the same period.No disponibl
