A new lead tablet with Greek text, possibly a letter from the 4th c. BC, is published here. The edition and partial translation is accompanied by a chronological, paleographic and linguistic study, and a comment that includes some hypotheses about its interpretation within this special genre of documents, whose number and significance are continuously increasing.

The Law of Talion is usually understood as «an eye for an eye». However, Roman law is far from being as concise and strict as that of the Bible. Whilst not forgetting the option of membrum pro membro , the interpretation of Latin examples tells us that punishments tended to be comparable and not equal, materially speaking, to the harm caused. The linguistic analysis of talio , derived from the indefinite talis and the correlative structure ( quale scelus, talis poena ) in which it appears, leads us to see this feminine substantive of action as a neologism of proportional reference that encouraged Roman law to evolve towards substitute punishments that were less gory. In order to understand the spirit of the Law of Talion, we must take into consideration its form, which above all is made up of the indefinite talis as a correlative of qualis referring to the damage or harm caused.

Ptolemy’s treatise On the Criterion and Commanding Faculty , dedicated to the study of the criteria of true, constitutes the epistemological frame of the scientific practice of this author. According to Ptolemy, language plays an important role as vehicle of transmission of the judgment, and in Ptolemy’s treatise its relationship with the rational part of the human being is set out, as well as its origin and philosophical properties.

This paper analyzes the example (παράδeιγμα) in Aristotle’s Rhetoric and focuses on the relationship between it and the idea of similarity (τὸ ὅμοιον), which is essential also for the concepts of metaphor and comparison. Thus, the idea of similarity is used to explore the connection among all this resources, and also between analogy and induction.

The paper focuses on the redistribution of pragmatic function, repragmaticalization (the phenomenon also known as discursisation). It is assumed that the Latin blessing formulae, as reproduced in the comedies by Plautus, underwent discursisation that resulted in its reinterpretion as a routinized expression of gratitude, and, finally, as greeting formulae ( di tibi dent quae uelis!; di te ament! ). Firstly, an analysis of the dialogue openings that include this particular wording of the salutatio ritual is conducted. Moreover, the study offers additional insights into the Roman reciprocal donation system, which has been related to the communicative routines of thanking and greeting. In conclusion some general remarks are made about the nature of the repragmaticalization process and its results.
本文着重探讨语用功能的再分配,即话语化现象。据推测,普拉图斯在喜剧中复制的拉丁祝福语经过了讨论,导致其被重新解释为一种常规的感激之情表达,最后被解释为问候语(di tibi dent quae uelis!;di te ament!)。首先,对包括敬礼这一特定措辞在内的对话开场白进行了分析。此外,这项研究还对罗马的互惠捐赠制度提供了更多的见解,该制度与感谢和问候的交流习惯有关。最后,对重新划分过程的性质及其结果作了一些一般性的评论。

Analysis and interpretation of the passage of the Etymologies and of the treated words, including the correction of a few readings, and the revised text. We note its literary sources, and explain the author’s methodology and linguistic conception regarding the etymology and meaning of words. According to the underlying structure and scientific frame in which the text is supported, Isidore distinguishes wild asses and wild horses (onagri and equiferi) from the domestic ones (asini and equi). He divides asses into smaller working donkeys (aselli) and big asses (asini Arcadici), and horses into a vulgar class for pulling carts (ueredus), including a variety of minor size (mannus), and another class of noble saddle-horses, of which he mentions eight races according to their geographical origin. Among the crossbreeds he mentions the mule (mulus), the hinny (burdo) and the cross of a wild ass and a jenny.

Seneca’s self-exemplarity in the Epistulae deserves further attention. This article assumes that in this text Seneca actively appropriates one Roman cultural device which plays a central role in memory building, the discourse of exemplarity. Taking into account that the topic of dying well is one of the backbones of the collection as a whole, we will examine Ep. 30, where the epistolary ego describes how an old friend faces death in an exemplary way. Considering that a deed proposed as exemplar requires not only a record, but also an agent that makes it visible (Roller 2004), we will try to show that in this letter the epistolary ego, aided by the written word, directs the reader’s attention to his own exemplarity, in order to build a positive and memorable portrait of himself.

In Ancient Greek, μόγις y μόλις generally express the effort an agent takes to display the verbal action. Besides this use as manner adverbs, μόγις and μόλις show also a use, although much less frequently, as approximative adverbs. This paper, which analyses The Illiad and The Odyssey , the complete tragedies by Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides, the plays by Aristophanes and Plutarch’s Lives, focuses on the determination of the semantic and pragmatic factors that have triggered the development of μόγις and μόλις into approximative adverbs. It aims also at describing the semantic, syntactic and pragmatic features of both adverbs in their use as approximative expressions. Finally, it will analyze the possible functional differences between both adverbs.
在古希腊语中,μ γις y μ λις通常表示代理人为显示言语行为所付出的努力。除了作为态度副词使用之外,μόγις和μόλις也可以作为近似副词使用,尽管使用频率要低得多。本文分析了埃斯库罗斯、索福克勒斯和欧里庇得斯的悲剧全集《伊利亚德》和《奥德赛》,以及阿里斯托芬和普鲁塔克的剧作《生活》,着重探讨了促使μ γις和μ λις演变为近似副词的语义和语用因素。它还旨在描述这两个副词作为近似表达时的语义、句法和语用特征。最后,分析这两个副词在功能上可能存在的差异。

Although it has been believed Iuuenal V 24-49 and Fronto 134.23 ss. van den Hout (2nd ed.) do not probably refer to the Saguntum wine. Iuuenal appears to allude to Saguntine pottery, which proverbially was of low quality in the epigrammatic and satirical tradition. Fronto’s sentence would be one more example of confusion in the manuscript tradition between Saguntum and Zacynthos on the one hand, and Saguntinus and Zacynthius on the other.
