APA/AIA 2014 : Getting Started with Digital Classics

by JOSHUA SOSIN on DECEMBER 19, 2013

In January we will present a paper at the annual APA/AIA meeting, on a panel organized by the Digital Classics Association: Getting Started with Digital Classics. Here’s a draft of what we’ll say.
After Integrating Digital Papyrology [Baumann, Cayless, Sosin]
Duke University recently completed a multi-year project called Integrating Digital Papyrology, or IDP, under generous support of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Under IDP we in effect did three things. One, we united the the Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri or DDbDP (a repository of editions of papyrological documents), the Heidelberger Gesamtverzeichnis der griechischen Papyrusurkunden Ägyptens, or HGV (a database of scholarly information about those documents: date, findspot, bibliography, etc.), the Advanced Papyrological Information System, or APIS, (a repository of digital images and catalog records of papyri held in institutional collections), and the Bibliographie Papyrologique, or BP (a quarterly scientific bibliography of the discipline); all under a common technical standard (EpiDoc, TEI XML), and all searchable under a fairly intuitive interface. Two, we built a platform for open and transparent, peer-reviewed, version-controlled, community-based, scholarly curation of all of these disciplinary resources. None of them is a black box any longer. Three, we published all of our data and code under open licenses. We give it away.

This year’s panel highlights the exciting research that typifies papyrology’s “next generation.” An exploration of orality and mem- ory in late Egyptian funerary texts is followed by two papers that refine our understanding of the relationship between State and subject in Roman Egypt, one a case study of priestly negotiations over temple land, the other a foregrounding of communal management of water resources. The elites of Late Antiquity are at the heart of the final two contributions. The first of these illuminates the social contexts of key administrative posts, while the second engages the recently lively debate concerning the nature of Egypt’s “great estates.”

Ancient Amulets: Language and Artifact
Megan Nutzman, The University of Chicago, Organizer
Toronto
The study of ancient amulets resides at the intersection of various traditional disciplines—archaeology, philology, linguistics, and religion. With this interdisciplinary nature in mind, the panel will employ network theory, cognitive linguistics, and recent archaeological discoveries to reassess long-held assumptions about the nature and function of amulets. The panel will also emphasize the hermeneu- tical relationship between the language on amulets, including scriptural citations and divine names, and their physical characteristics as protective objects. Specific case studies from Pergamon, Syria-Palestine, and Egypt will provide a context for discussing previously marginalized evidence and for proposing new methodologies for interpretation.

Mit diesem Band legt Peter Arzt-Grabner erstmals einen umfassenden Kommentar zum 2. Korintherbrief vor, der den Text anhand der dokumentarischen Papyri und Ostraka sowie der Holz- und Wachstäfelchen aus dem griechisch-römischen Alltag auslegt. Der Kommentar dient als wichtige Ergänzung zu traditionellen exegetischen Kommentaren.
Der umfangreiche Einleitungsteil widmet sich besonders ausführlich der Frage, inwieweit Papyrusbriefe mit den Paulusbriefen vergleichbar sind, sowie den Teilungshypothesen zum 2. Korintherbrief – einschließlich einer Erklärung darüber, wie ein Kompilationsprozess abgelaufen sein könnte. Ferner legt Arzt-Grabner die Ausgangssituation sowie die Funktion von Briefboten aus papyrologischer Sicht dar. Die fortlaufende Auslegung des Bibeltextes bietet den papyrologischen Hintergrund zu den einzelnen Briefabschnitten, den größeren und kleineren Themen und zu den von Paulus verwendeten Begriffen und Formeln. Auch die Gliederung des Paulustextes erfolgt entsprechend dem antiken Briefformular. Ausführlicher behandelte Themen sind u.a.: aufgeschobene Besuche, Untersuchungshaft und Gerichtsprozess, Düfte und Gerüche, Empfehlungsbriefe, Vereinssatzungen, die Kollekte für Jerusalem vor dem Hintergrund des antiken Vereinswesens, Verleumdungen und Besuchsankündigungen.
Verzeichnisse zu den behandelten Papyri, Ostraka und Täfelchen, zu den ausführlicher behandelten griechischen Begriffen und Personennamen sowie zu den modernen Autorinnen und Autoren erleichtern den Zugang zu diesem Band.

Talk: (Uni-Leipzig) Amir Zeldes, Corpus Linguistics Tools for Sahidic Coptic

2013 Leipzig eHumanities Seminar Schedule

Abstract

Corpus Linguistics Tools for Sahidic Coptic
Amir Zeldes1 & Caroline T. Schroeder2
1 Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, 2 University of the Pacific
Coptic, the language of Christian Egypt in the Hellenistic era of the first millennium, offers both a chance and a challenge for digital humanities research in the 21st century. On the one hand, there are comparatively few digital resources available: no publically available automatic tokenization, part-of-speech tagging, or corpus search software, nor any guidelines on how to undertake these tasks (we are aware of only one, incomplete and unreleased effort to tag Coptic in Orlandi 2004; our work bases partly on Orlandi’s lexical resources, kindly made available to us). On the other hand, an explosion of work in digital humanities (standards like TEI/EpiDoc for manuscript digitization, cf. Cayless et al. 2009 or digital infrastructure like Perseus, cf. Crane et al. 2009, to name just two) has led to a wide range of resources one can draw on in bringing Coptic to the level of technology now enjoyed e.g. by Greek and Latin.
To seize these opportunities, we have endeavored to develop comprehensive, freely available tools for the automatic linguistic processing of Coptic manuscripts that can be corrected manually and made available online. We present the first publically available tokenizer (lexicon and rule-based) for the main Sahidic dialect of Coptic, as well as two corresponding part-of-speech tagging schemes and training models, fine and coarse grained. Tokenization for Coptic is a non-trivial task, since manuscripts are written in scriptio continua (without spaces), but Coptic word forms are linguistically segmented at two levels: both into minimal morphemes, and into larger word forms, corresponding to nominal or verbal complexes, including related prepositions and articles (nouns) and multiple concatenated conjugation bases with subject/object pronouns and allomorphy (verbs). Our tokenizer currently addresses only the first task, and assumes that a human annotator has separated the scriptio continua into the coarse word forms. Example (1) shows morpheme borders added by the tokenizer, represented by pipe symbols. In some cases, letters can stand for two sounds that belong to different morphemes. In such cases the tokenizer saves the original diplomatic form and also outputs an alternative orthography which allows morphemes to be represented separately. This is shown in (2) for the letter theta), which stands for a /t/ followed by /h/ coming from different morphemes (individual letters are transliterated in angle brackets). In words of Greek origin, theta, phi and chi should be retained, while coincidental combinations of multiple morphemes leading to these letters must be disentangled.

Homeric papyri at Oslo, Harvard and Graz University
Mirończuk, Andrzej
Editions (transcription and commentary) of four papyri containing the Iliad of Homer: three unpublished from Oxyrhynchus, briefly described in P.Oxy. III 554 (XIX 251-9); P.Oxy. IV 760 (V 715-8, 720-9), now Graz Universität Ms. I 1911, I 1928; P.Oxy. IV 764 (VIII 109-23), now Harvard University Library MS. Gr. SM 4372; and a re-edition of P.Oslo inv. 1465 (I 411-37, 473-80). The dates range from the 1st to 3rd centuries CE.


A Homeric papyrus at Princeton
Mirończuk, Andrzej
Page 17
A critical edition (transcription and a commentary) of an early (1st century BCE) and unpublished papyrus of the Iliad of Homer (XIV 227-283), briefly described in P.Oxy. III 551 by Grenfell and Hunt. The papyrus is now lodged in Princeton (AM 4405).


BKT IX 10 = P.Berol. 21110r: Dorische Lyrik oder Tragödie?
Benelli, Luca
Page 29

BKT IX 10 = P.Berol. 21110r [MP3 1910.01; LDAB 4566] was published by Grace Ioannidou in 1996 and was attributed to Doric lyric. The form στεναξε[ (l. 11), however, is unusual for an Archaic lyric text, but not for tragic texts. It could therefore be a tragic text.


Nauplius at Troy: Aeschylus fr. 451k (Radt)
Sampson, C. Michael
Page 33
Reanalysis of a fragment of Aeschylus ascribed by Sommerstein to the prologue of Palamedes. It is suggested the fragment comes from the latter part of the play.

Nochmals zu Ἱππόλυτος πρῶτος und Ἱππόλυτος δεύτερος
Luppe, Wolfgang
Page 47
P.Oxy. LXVIII 4640 demonstrates definitively that the Ἱππόλυτος (κατα)καλυπτόμενος is the first of the two Ἱππόλυτος-tragedies.


Zum Komödien-Kommentar P.Oxy. LXXVIII 5160
Luppe, Wolfgang
Page 50

P.Oxy. LXXVII 5160 is a commentary to an Attic Comedy, probably Eupolis. The title may be Αἶγες.

P.Sal. Gr. 1: un symbolon di vendita all’asta di una schiavetta
Tepedino Guerra, Adele
Page 55
Dated to the second year of Ptolemy V Epiphanes, this unpublished papyrus probably contains a symbolon with information about the auction of a young female slave: the amount paid (five talents), the name of the director, Heliodorus, appointed to the royal bank of Crocodilopolis for that year, where the purchaser deposed the money for the bid. The onomastics suggest a link to the syngraphe synoikisiou of 231 BC in CPR XVIII 17.


Einblicke in die ptolemäische Verwaltungspraxis
Stern, Matthias
Page 62
In this article, BGU VI 1242 and 1311, which shed light on the implementation of the tax farming system into Ptolemaic Egypt, are re-edited and systematically commented on for the first time. Each text reveals certain administrative procedures by which tax farmers worked in cooperation with public institutions.


Greek or Egyptian?
Láda, Csaba A.
Page 95
In this article the origin of the Ptolemaic honorific court title συγγενής is examined on the basis of Greek, Demotic and hieroglyphic sources. It is shown that this title cannot be derived from any pharaonic Egyptian title and that, in fact, it found its way into both Demotic and hieroglyphic usages.


Die Verwendung von Zahlsubstantiven zur Bezeichnung von Monatstagen in den griechischen Papyri
Hagedorn, Dieter
Page 123
In this article the author tries to answer the question, whether a general rule of the ancient Greek language, i.e. to designate the fourth, the twentieth, and the thirtieth days of a month not by ordinal numbers, but by the substantival numerals τετράς, εἰκάς, and τριακάς, was also observed in the 
Greek papyri and ostraca from Egypt.


Loan of Wheat with Antichresis
Claytor, W. Graham
Page 138
Publication of a loan of wheat from the reign of Antoninus Pius found in Bakchias and now in the Egyptian Museum, Cairo. The penalty clause involves antichretic rights to an aroura of land and the wheat is described with the extremely rare term αὐτοκεφάλαιος.


Creating a New Local Elite: The Establishment of the Metropolitan Orders of Roman Egypt
Broux, Yanne
Page 143
Since membership of the gymnasial order was controlled more strictly than for the metropolites, this group was long considered an elite within an elite. Building on the theory that they were, rather, distinct groups that developed side by side, this paper pursues the question of the origins of these orders and the implications of their 'closing' in the second half of the first century AD.


Problemi di attribuzione di P.Ness. II 1 fr. VII
Fressura, Marco
Page 154
This article discusses P.Ness. II 1 fr. VII, presumed lost until 2010. Examination of the original reveals some material and textual clues that cast doubt on Casson/Hettich’s attribution to Verg. Aen. I 618-619, 624-625. Unfortunately no safe new attribution seems possible, as the fragment is too small and damaged.


Fiscalité et comptabilité dans l᾽Égypte byzantine et arabe À propos d᾽une publication récente d᾽ostraca du Petrie Museum
Delattre, Alain / Fournet, Jean-Luc
Page 161
We propose corrections to and reeditions of ostraca recently published in O.Petr. Mus. - most of them tax receipts or accounts from the VIIIth Theban area (Djeme).

Höfliche Bitte an einen Bekannten um Bezahlung eines Geldbetrags
Shahin, Ayman Aly
Page 176
Edition of an Arabic letter from the 3rd/9th century. The writer politely reminds a friend to pay his debt, five dirhams less seven Ḥabba.
