Jerome, the vir trilinguis, frequently makes pertinent observations on linguistic features of Hebrew. The present note offers a discussion of his comments specifically relating to Hebrew interjections. In doing so, it illustrates how in approaching the ‘foreign’, Semitic language material, Jerome relies on the Latin artigraphical tradition, i. e. the tradition of Latin grammars and literary commentaries.

Considering his status as the best fighter on the Trojan side, Hector's flight in "Iliad" 22.131-7 is unexpected and surprising, even though Hector is never overtly reproached for his reaction. This article proposes a psychological explanation for Hector's behaviour, drawing on recent insights concerning combat stress reaction (CSR) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): Hector does not flee from fear of death, but from the "Wind of Hate", i.e. the terror felt when confronted with direct and personal aggression. An examination of the actions of Achilles in the "Iliad" supports this conclusion, for Achilles exhibits behaviour which would qualify for a diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder. The intense personal hatred of Achilles is sufficient to shock Hector into flight, even if he ultimately recovers and heroically faces Achilles in battle. Thus, the scene bears testimony to the "Iliad"'s understanding of the universal human experiences of warfare and aggression.
