Teoreticko-metodologický seminář - stroegyptská filologie

PTOLEMAIC TEXT EDITION I AND II

2016–2017: I) ZS 2016 and II) LS 2017 (2 hours/week)
PhDr Filip Coppens, PhD ([e-mail])


ANNOTATION
The doctoral seminar, in the form of a workgroup, will focus on a single Ptolemaic bandeau inscription to be studied in detail. Next to the transliteration, translation and grammatical analysis of the inscription, students will also search for and compare with parallel or similar texts, focus on the transmission and re-edition of older passages in the Ptolemaic text(s), and interpret the general context in which the inscription occurs. The aim of the seminar is to provide the students an insight into all aspects entailed in presenting and publishing an inscription (whether Ptolemaic or other) in a scientific and critical manner. The final result of the two part seminar (ZS 2016 and LS 2017) should be a critical edition of the text in question in the form of an article and/or conference presentation.

The seminar is predominantly aimed at beginning PhD students, but MA students are also welcome to participate. All participating students (PhD and MA) are however expected to be familiar with the Ptolemaic writing system, the apparatus (sign lists, grammars, lexica etc) available and the scientific methods used for the transliteration, translation and analysis of Ptolemaic texts.
