  • Mary-Ing Isis and Mary Magdalene in "The Flowering of the Rod"
    FACS / Vol. 10 / 2007-2008 Mary-ing Isis and Mary Magdalene in “The Flowering of the Rod”: Revisioning and Healing Through Female-Centered Spirituality in H.D.’s Trilogy Julie Goodspeed-Chadwick The palimpsest, as H.D. uses it in “The Flowering of the Rod” (1944), remakes reality by reconfiguring it. The palimpsestic design of Trilogy, the three-part epic poem of which “The Flowering of the Rod” is a part, offers healing through a revisioning of the world in feminist terms, created and represented by superimposed feminist characters and enacted by poetic language. This feminist use of the palimpsest effects healing and empowers women because it breaks with the traumatizing (for women) traditions that are imbued with masculine form and content. As a result, H.D. reclaims female types and reinvents them to form a new poetic template that counters the exclusion of women from master narratives and advocates healing from trauma. In short, H.D.’s palimpsestic design in Trilogy encourages the validation of a feminist worldview and ideology, thereby battling silence and fostering empowerment of women. In H.D. scholarship, “The Flowering of the Rod” 1 is interpreted as a poem about healing and female-centered spirituality. 2 However, throughout H.D. scholarship on Trilogy , healing as a particular response to the trauma of a marginalized woman in patriarchal narrative, has garnered noticeably less scholarship. 3 What has received even less attention are the ways in which H.D. enacts her template for healing through female- centered spirituality. Female-centered spirituality is the balm for traumatic wounds of various kinds 4 in H.D.’s FOTR because women are written into a spiritual narrative; thus, inclusion and identification become possible.

  • The Text of the Sinai Palimpsest
    THE TEXT OF THE SINAI PALIMPSEST. As several communications about the text of the Syriac Gospels of Mount Sinai have already appeared in this magazine, I think it is fitting that I should make through it what is perhaps the most important of them all. Professor Burkitt published in 1904 an edition of the Cureton manuscript, entitled The Evangelion <la Mephar­ reske, and attached to it a collation of the Sinai text, which included nearly the whole of the Gospel of St. Mark. While the number of small mistakes inevitable in the case of a palimpsest and occurring in the work of the original tran­ scribers, of whom he himself was one, were corrected with the help of my photqgraphs, and of the supplementary transcription which I made in 1895, in its unedited state, I still did not feel satisfied for several reasons. I. I knew that some of these corrections were arbitrary, as they reversed the judgment of the original transcribers, without any proper basis for doing so ; the motive being apparently in some instances to assimilate a Sinai reading to one of Cureton. The more this process prevails, the more will scholars be inclined to assign a later date to the earlier, i.e. the Sinai text. II. Many of the passages were called illegible which belong to that half of the MS. which Dr. Burkitt has never seen. I mean to the portions transcribed by Dr. Rendel Harris or by myself, or even to pages which Dr. Bensly and he had not time to finish. Here the proper adjective would have been " unread." Ill.

  • Archimedes Palimpsest Review 2 Sullivan
    Denis Sullivan [email protected] The Archimedes Palimpsest: I, Catalog and Commentary, II, Images and Transcriptions, edited by Reviel Netz, William Noel, Natalie Tchernetska and Nigel Wilson (Cambridge and Baltimore: Cambridge UP and the Walters Art Museum, 2011; pp. 340; ix, 344; £150.00, $215.00; ISBN 9781107016842) In 1906 J. L. Heiberg of Copenhagen University examined a palimpsest Euchologion in the Metochion of the Holy Sepulcher in Constantinople. He found therein the oldest witness to seven treatises of Archimedes, two unique, the Method and Stomachion. Heiberg published the Archimedes material beginning in 1907. The palimpsest subsequently disappeared, resurfacing and offered for sale in the 1930s and again in the 1970s, then purchased at auction in 1998. The anonymous buyer deposited the volume with the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, MD, USA to be made available for study. The poor condition of the manuscript and its palimpsest nature necessitated extensive collaboration among conservation and imaging scientists and classical scholars to retrieve the underlying text. The process and results of that ten-year effort are described in these two richly illustrated folio volumes with a full set of images and transcriptions of the Archimedes texts and two others. The Introduction by W. Noel describes the personnel details of the project: a professional project manager to formulate and oversee performance goals, classical paleographical and mathematics specialists to transcribe the text, a conservationist to disbind the manuscript (allowing reading of text hidden in the spine and full folio imaging), and imaging specialists “to render the erased text more legible.” He notes that the work subsequently revealed that in addition to the Archimedes texts the palimpsest contained fragments of two speeches of the fourth century BC orator Hyperides, a fragmentary commentary on Aristotle’s Categories, and other fragments.

  • Archimedes and the Palimpsest
    http://www.mlahanas.de/Greeks/ArchimedesPal.htm Archimedes and the Palimpsest Michael Lahanas “The Method” was a work of Archimedes unknown in the Middle Ages, but the importance of which was realized after its discovery. Archimedes pioneered the use of infinitesimals, showing how by dividing a figure in an infinite number of infinitely small parts could be used to determine its area or volume. It was found in the so-called Archimedes Palimpsest. The ancient text was found in a rare 10th- century Byzantine Greek manuscript which is probably the oldest and most authentic copy of Archimedes’ major works to survive, and contains transcriptions of his writing on geometry and physics. The 174 pages of text was according to the Greek orthodox church stolen but the owners were descendants of a Frenchman who legally bought the volume in the 1920s. It was sold for $2 million at Christie’s. The manuscript was the only source for his treatise “On The Method of Mathematical Theorems” and the only known copy of the original Greek text of his work, “On Floating Bodies”. The manuscript also contains the text of his works “On The Measurement of the Circle”, “On the Sphere and the Cylinder”, “On Spiral Lines” and “On the Equilibrium of Planes”. The volume is a palimpsest, a manuscript in which pages have been written on twice. As writing material was expensive an original text could be washed off so the parchment could be reused. The upper layer of writing on the document to be auctioned contains instructions for religious rites but underneath it contains versions of Archimedes’ most celebrated Greek texts.

  • X-Ray Fluorescence Investigations of Ancient
    X-RAY FLUORESCENCE INVESTIGATIONS OF ANCIENT GREEK AND LATIN EPIGRAPHS A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science by Judson Albert Powers January 2008 c 2008 Judson Albert Powers ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Many ancient Greek and Latin epigraphs, once clear text on limestone and marble, have weathered and worn over the course of many centuries so that the words written on them are no longer legible. X-ray fluorescence, a common non- destructive chemical analysis technique, is extended to synchrotron-based X-ray fluorescence imaging, with which we can map the relative concentrations of many elements near the surface of a stone epigraph. We investigate the application of X-ray fluorescence imaging to these epigraphs. Initial results show an association between fluorescence intensity from trace elements near the surface of an epigraph and the presence of a glyph carved in the stone. Further, it is demonstrated that mapping this fluorescence intensity can, in some cases, improve legibility of the text beyond the capabilities of the unaided eye. Further investigations explore in more detail the usefulness of different trace elements for imaging text, potential origins of these trace elements, fluorescence intensity effects associated with the physical topography of the stone, and the application of statistical analysis techniques to X-ray fluorescence imaging data. We also apply our methods to an epigraph of uncertain provenance, demonstrating that the evidence provided by X-ray fluorescence indicates that it is a modern copy of another epigraph.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Codex Zacynthius is a palimpsest manuscript, the undertext of which contains portions of a commentary on the Gospel according to Luke in the form known as a catena. The manuscript first become known to scholarship in 1820, when it was presented by Prince Comuto to General Colin Macaulay on the island of Zakynthos (Zante), hence its name. It was donated to the British and Foreign Bible Society the following year. In 2014, fol- lowing a public appeal, the manuscript was purchased by Cambridge University Library where it currently bears the shelfmark MS Additional 10062. Between 2018 and 2020, the Arts and Humanities Research Council funded the Codex Zacynthius Project, led by Da- vid Parker and Hugh Houghton at the Institute for Textual Scholarship and Electronic Editing (ITSEE) in the University of Birmingham, to make a thorough examination of the manuscript. This included the production of multispectral images of the codex and a com- plete electronic transcription of both the undertext and the overtext, published online on the Cambridge Digital Library.1 The present volume is an edition of the palimpsest undertext, along with an English translation of the catena. It draws on the material produced by the Codex Zacynthius Pro- ject for its electronic edition of the manuscript. As a printed edition was not one of the planned outputs of that project, this book has been prepared under the auspices of the European Research Council CATENA Project, led by Hugh Houghton at ITSEE be- tween 2018 and 2023. It was felt that the permanence of a printed text, along with the presentation of the transcription and translation on facing pages, would provide a useful complement to the digital edition.

ANALOGIES, TOUCH POINTS, AND INTERACTIONS* Abstract The article discusses the interpretative and methodological potential inherent in the synergetic application of two categories paradigmatic for cultural studies and cultural literary theory: translatio and memory. It is argued that both categories, viewed as cultural metaphors and combined with each other, may serve as a complex model for the interpretation of cultural phenomena. The starting point for developing such a model is the insight that both concepts have undergone a similar semantic evolution in the discourse of cultural studies, and may now be represented as radial categories with a “prototypical centre” and metaphorical-metonymical extensions, translatio going far beyond interlingual “translation proper”. Next, some further contact zones between translatio and memory are outlined: firstly, their functional analogies, which are reflected in parallel metaphors depicting memory and translation (such as the “palimpsest” and the “devouring of the Other”). Secondly, the metaphor of the “dissemination of memes” is discussed as the most promising idea that brings together the discourse of translation studies with reflection on the mechanisms of collective memory, drawing attention to ethical and political aspects of both translatio and memory. The image of the “dissemination of memes” is also a point of departure for its derivative metaphors of “translation as memory transmission” and “memory as a space of translatio”.
