Una bilingue greco-semitica (?) con regolamento sacrale da Dreros
The inscription published by E. Van Effenterre [Inscriptions archaïques crétoises, BCH 70 (1946), 602-603, recently in A.M. Hakkert (ed.), Cretica Selecta, II Graeca et Romana, Amsterdam 1990, 478-479] is reconsidered on the assumption that it is a bilingual text written in Greek and Eteocretan. Above all, the Eteocretan text (line 1) could offer new interpretations and corroborate the intuition of Cyrus H. Gordon who recognized that a word belonged to North-West Semitic Language at the end of the same text
Corpus delle iscrizioni bilingui aramaico nabateo-greche. Approfondimenti onomastici e problemi di ricostruzione del sistema fonologico del nabateo
Il campo di ricerca della tesi di Dottorato riguarda la costituzione di un corpus di iscrizioni bilingui aramaico nabateo-greche. Lo studio prende le mosse dall’assenza, allo stato attuale, di una silloge che include le suddette epigrafi dell’area mediterranea e vicino orientale dal I secolo a.C. al III secolo d.C. Questo permette di approfondire gli aspetti morfosintattici e lessicali peculiari delle due aree linguistiche (nabatea e greca) e di gettare uno sguardo complessivo sulle modalità di scambio culturale (sociale, politico e religioso) tra le realtà semitica occidentale ed ellenica. Infine, la parte più rilevante della ricerca riguarda l’analisi comparativa dell’onomastica nabatea e greca, attestata nelle bilingui, e l’indagine onomastica nabatea di iscrizioni monolingui, al fine di ricostruire la fonetica dell’aramaico nabateo
La dedica in greco e sidetico di Seleucia (S6): un caso di diglossia?
Through a new analysis of the Greek-Sidetic inscription of Seleucia (S6) further considerations about the Lycian origin of the author and the possible diglossic nature of the inscription emerge
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
An epigraphic note on the Nabataean text of a bilingual (Greek-Nabataean) inscription from Gür al-Säfi
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
