Papyrological Summer Institute at Stanford, July 2008

Papyrological Institute at Stanford University
1 July- 31 July 2008

In July of 2008, the Department of Classics at Stanford University will host a summer Papyrological Institute for advanced graduate students and junior faculty in Ancient History, Classics, History, Egyptology, Art and Archaeology, as well as other related disciplines. The Papyrological Institute will run through the month of July in the summer of 2008, and will focus on Ptolemaic papyri. In keeping with the goals of previous years, the institute aims to provide participating scholars with a thorough knowledge of and experience with not only Ptolemaic papyri but also with the field of papyrology in general, so that they may employ these skills effectively in conducting their own research. This summer’s Papyrological Institute follows in the series of summer institutes that have been held at Yale (2003), UC Berkeley (2004), Cincinnati (2005), and Columbia (2006) under the sponsorship of the American Society of Papyrologists.

The institute will include a combination of lectures and advanced coursework with first-hand experience working with ancient sources. Students are expected to participate actively in all of the institute’s programs and activities; a full-time commitment is required. In general, mornings will be dedicated to introductory lectures by the three instructors: Professors J. G. Manning (Director, Stanford University), Mark Depauw (Demotic Papyrology, K.U. Leuven, Belgium), and Arthur Verhoogt (Greek Papyrology, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor). Afternoons will focus largely on advanced coursework, and a selection of unpublished material will be provided for participants to work with. At the end of the week, Fridays will be devoted to pro-seminars and lectures on special topics relating to the documentation of Ptolemaic Egypt.

Admission to the summer Papyrological Institute is by application only; approximately twelve scholars will be selected to participate. Any qualified academic may participate; no prior experience with papyrology is expected. For work with Greek and Demotic papyri, a high degree of competence in Ancient Greek and/or Demotic is essential; however, instruction in Demotic will be provided as part of the course, and those who have no prior experience with it are welcome. Participation in the institute is free of charge; applicants are expected to seek financial support from their home institution to facilitate their participation, but grants may be available to any participants who do not have other means of support. On-campus room and board will be provided for all participants by Stanford University. No credit will be given for the course, and no grades or transcripts will be issued, however those participants completing the institute will receive a certificate from the American Society of Papyrologists.

Application Procedure: The application consists of the completed application form along with current curriculum vitae and two letters of recommendation. All materials must be received by 15 February 2008 in order to be considered for admission; notification of decisions will be issued in March. For further information about the summer institute, please contact J.G. Manning at jmanning@stanford.edu.

Stanford acquires a ‘world-class’ Egyptology library


Stanford has acquired the library of one of the foremost Egyptologists of the 20th century.

The collection of Wolja Erichsen (1890-1966), now at Stanford's Green Library, documents more than 1,500 years of Egyptian history, ranging from about 650 B.C. to about A.D. 1000. It includes Egypt's important transition from paganism to Christianity.

Im Mittelpunkt des Symposiums stehen neu entdeckte oder identifizierte Texte zur Rechtspraxis der Byzantiner (Papyri, Palimpseste) – mit Einblick in das Notariat und Kanzleiwesen, soweit es die Papyri betrifft – sowie Fragen zu Paläographie,
„Urkundenform“ und Kopisten aus dem Umfeld der Kanzleien (Kaiserkanzlei, Patri- archatskanzlei, lokale Kanzleien). Behandelt wird ferner die Frage, bis wann aufgrund neuerster papyrologischer Forschungsergebnisse die griechische Sprache in den lokalen Kanzleien nach der arabischen Eroberung verwendet wurde und inwieweit mit ägyptischem Material die dark ages abgedeckt werden können. Zur Frage der Schrift und des „Layouts“ juristischer Texte in der Spätantike und frühbyzantinischen Zeit wird am Ende (Mittwoch, 7. 11., Vormittag) eine Table ronde veranstaltet.

Berenike 1999/2000


Berenike 1999/2000 : report on the excavations at Berenike, including excavations in Wadi Kalalat and Siket, and the survey of the Mons Smaragdus Region

by Willeke Wendrich and Steven E Sidebotham

Excavations at Berenike, a Greco-Roman harbour on the Egyptian Red Sea coast, have provided extensive evidence for trade with India, South-Arabia and sub-Saharan Africa. The results of the 1999 and 2000 excavations by the joint mission of the University of Delaware, Leiden University and UCLA, have been published in a comprehensive report, with specialists' analyses of different object groups and an overview of evidence for the trade route from the Indian perspective. The book is lavishly illustrated with photographs, drawings, plans, and two large fold-out maps of Berenike and Sikait, anciently known as Mons Smaragdus, the emerald/beryl mines of the Roman Empire. 417p, b/w illus (Cotsen Monograph 56, Cotsen Institute of Archaeology 2007).

The Greatest Hits of Ancient Garbage

The Greatest Hits of Ancient Garbage, July 29, 2007.
from NYC Public Radio; begins with a short appeal for donations; then about 4 minutes on garbage in NY, then Prof. Obbink.

What can a 1,000 years worth of trash tell us about ancient human behavior? Dirk Obbink, Director of research and professor of papyrology and classics at Oxford, tells us about the "motherload" of 2,000 year old paper found in Oxyrhynchus, Egypt in 1896 by two Oxford graduate students , B. P. Grenfell and A. S. Hunt. A find so big, it’s beyond the scale of one human lifetime to translate it all. Deciphering fragments that look like cornflakes and sentences that break off right before they tell you want you need to know, Obbink and his colleagues find enough secrets to rewrite the past. The “greatest hits of ancient garbage” may just change your mind about Jesus, porn, and what it means to be a hero. It might even convince you to change your tattoo.

Article in ARCHAEOLOGY MAGAZINE on recently excavated papyri from Tebtunis


....
Gallazzi puts on a pair of white gloves to remove a piece of papyrus from the ground with very thin tweezers. Since 1998, the Italian-French mission has found 7,000 papyri and many inscribed potsherds. This is one of the very few places in Egypt where archaeologists are still unearthing papyrus fragments. And the finds here are startlingly diverse, written in Arabic, Coptic, Greek, Aramaic, and Egyptian demotic, a simplified, cursive form of hieratic writing.

"Many are concerned with administrative procedures, but also include contracts, receipts, inventories, letters, and school exercises, as well as copies of literary works by Homer, Menander, and Euripides," says Gallazzi, who seems to be able to read ancient papyri the way you're reading this article.

On attend depuis longtemps un Who's who in Papyrology. Ce livre ne comble pas l'attente dans la mesure où il est consacré à un nombre trop peu élevé de papyrologues. En revanche, il donne sur plusieurs de ceux-ci des informations beaucoup plus étoffées que celles figurant dans un Who's who.

How Big and How Old is Papyrus Oxyrhynchus 1353? (30 min)

P.Oxy. 1353 is a fragment of a page of 1 Peter from a parchment codex. The ed. princ.(Grenfell and Hunt) misread the page number that appears on the left hand top corner of the back of the page. In the light of a rereading of the page number this paper will explore the length and possible contents of the codex as well as its date and the socio- historical implications it has for early Christianity.

“I Was Intending to Visit You, but …:” Clauses Explaining Delayed Visits and Their Importance in Papyrus Letters and in Paul (30 min)

As many senders of private papyrus letters, also Paul several times emphasizes that he intended to visit his addressees earlier but for some reason could not or did not do so (cf. especially Rom., 1Cor., 2Cor., and 1Thess.). The large number of papyrus letters from Graeco-Roman antiquity, covering clauses that explain such delayed visits, provides us with the opportunity to study such clauses extensively and in detail, also because these letters are much shorter than most of Paul’s letters, and less sophisticated in style and contents, but nevertheless written according to the same principles of communication and letter writing. The first important result of the study is that such clauses are not mere phrases explaining simply that the letter writer could not visit his addressee and nothing else (or, in other words: these clauses are not just philophronetic), but that, in a direct combination with such clauses, the letter writer informs the addressee, more or less clearly, about the original and primary intention of the letter. Sometimes, this intention is to express via a letter exactly what the writer had wished to express on the occasion of a visit. But, there are also examples, where a writer obviously explains something different, and deals with informations, queries or expectations in a way that is different from what she or he would have done when visiting the addressee in person. And sometimes, of course, a letter merely functions to ease the writer’s personal desire for the addressee, or to confirm the ongoing good relationship between both of them. A comparison with the relevant clauses in Paul proves that these results are very well applicable, and that these clauses in Paul provide us with important clues to the primary intentions of some of his letters (i.e. most of all 1Thess., 1 and 2Cor., and Rom.).

Annette Bourland Huizenga, University of Chicago
Advice to the Bride: Moral Exhortation for Young Wives in Two Ancient Letters (30 min)

This paper compares moral exhortation for women in two letters: from the Pythagorean Melissa to Kleareta, and the NT Pastoral Letter to Titus. In Melissa’s letter, an older woman gives advice to a younger woman about wifely decorum. This letter, found in P. Hauniensis II.13, dates to the 3rd century CE. The papyrus is a Koiné version of the Doric text found in twenty-two Renaissance manuscripts. (The Doric text seems to be more original.) The papyrus provides the earliest documentation for the letter’s transmission and its social functions. In Titus, the author gives gender- and age-specific “sound teachings,” paying particular attention to the older women instructing younger women in virtuous behavior (2:3-5, found in the earliest ms. for Titus, P 32, ca. 200). The goal of the teaching evokes a philosophical way of life within a Christian context. I argue that both letters presume a common philosophical-educational process for women, in that: (1) they share literary characteristics of the philosophical letter genre (being pseudepigraphic, paraenetic, and using classical rhetorical stylistic features); (2) they utilize authoritative (and pseudepigraphical) names to reinforce the teaching; (3) older women are thought to be the appropriate teachers of and models for younger women, and (4) the content of women’s instruction is different from that for men, i.e., exemplified in “feminine” topoi. On the other hand, the letters differ in their “theological” basis for virtuous living, which is seen in Titus in the “Christianization” (and especially, “Paulinization”) of the teaching. Also, while the letter of Titus explicitly anticipates an audience of men and women, Melissa’s letter to Kleareta imagines an all-female readership.

Papyrological Commentary on 2 Thessalonians: Outline and First Results (30 min)

One of the next volumes of the Papyrologische Kommentare zum Neuen Testament will be on 2 Thessalonians. In addition to the analysis of the Greek vocabulary according to its papyrological daily background, use and meaning, it will contain oberservations on pseudepigraphy and comments on the themes of parousia and imminentism . In documentary and also magical papyri we find ideas of a kind of doomsday, or of some pessimism when being confronted with riots, war or insecurity. Thus, the papyrus texts provide us with a clear impression how easily common people could be infected by such pessimism, and that the writer of 2 Thess had a good reason to address it. The presentation gives a short overview of the Commentary and the results of the research thus far.

This book deals with the manuscripts from the Wadi Daliyeh (Samaria Papyri) written in Aramaic in the fourth century B.C.E. in the city of Samaria, in the last decades of the Persian period. The book contains a complete edition of the Wadi Daliyeh manuscripts, their new historical interpretation, and an analysis of their legal aspects. The historical interpretation sheds new light on the history of Samaria and its institutions in the Persian period, as well as on the history of the Persian province of Judaea. This book is particulary useful for historians of Palestine in the Second Temple period, for biblical scholars, and for scholars dealing with Near Eastern legal texts.
