  • Medicine and Mythology: Health and Healing in Indo-European Myths1
    Medicine and Mythology: Health and Healing in Indo-European Myths1 Carole M. Cusack, University of Sydney Introduction This paper examines myths that deal with issues of sickness and health from the Indo- European cultures of pre-Christian Europe, including the Ancient Greeks, the Vedic Indians, the Celts, and the medieval Scandinavians. The themes explored include: the relationship of physical perfection to moral excellence; mortality and attempts to avoid or reverse death; and the figure of the healer as exponent of both positive and negative powers. It will be demonstrated that the concepts of wellness and illness were located within a complex cosmological and social mythology that is common to all these Indo-European cultures, although there are certain cultural specificities identifiable within particular mythological texts. Body and Cosmos: Fundamental Indo-European Concepts It is important to begin with a basic definition of ‘myth’, which too often carries the connotation of something that is ‘not true’ in the modern West. The Greek word muthos means story or narrative, and in this context: myth or a mythology means a narrative or a collection of narratives about the gods or supernatural beings used by a people – clan, tribe or ethnic community - for purposes of interpreting the meaning of their experience and their world, both individually and corporately. What is fundamental in the definition of ‘myth’, however, and which distinguishes mythical narrative from other kinds of stories, is that myth articulates the basic self-understanding of the people and thereby operates as a kind of charter for the total cultural life.2 Thus, in Indo-European cultures, the corpus of mythology functioned variously as law, philosophy, educational charter, political manifesto, and a range of other types of authoritative texts, which are understood to be distinct in modernity.

  • Of Anatolian
    “Western Affinities” of Anatolian H. Craig Melchert University of California, Los Angeles That some shared features of various IE dialects may reflect contact after the respective dialects had already undergone divergent devel- opments is widely acknowledged, and there has been much discus- sion of the position of subgroups such as Germanic and Albanian and of the true relationship of Italic and Celtic or of Baltic and Slav- ic. However, the growing popularity of the view that Anatolian was the first subgroup to become isolated from the rest of the PIE speech community (by whatever label one expresses this) has somehow led to a widespread neglect of this possibility for Anatoli- an. Only a strict and quite unrealistic version of the Stammbaum model precludes that Anatolian, after sufficient isolation not to have shared in a few common innovations of the rest of the IE languages, subsequently came into contact with other subgroups. I will re- examine for Anatolian the issue of putative shared, non-trivial in- novations with and borrowings from Italic, Celtic, and Germanic, following upon the excellent but almost totally ignored study of Jaan Puhvel 1994. 1 Premises Most conceptions of the Stammbaum model allow for the effects of lan- guage contact after initial divergence. See e.g. Ringe, Warnow and Taylor (2002: 111) on the position of Germanic within Indo-European: “…the hypothesis that Germanic was originally a near sister of Balto-Slavic and Indo-Iranian…we are led to posit an episode of intensive language contact between Germanic and the western languages well before the known peri- 2 H.

Andrew von Hendy, who declares Burkert’sdefinition M“ ” “ the gold standard in classical studies, offers a Marxist reformulation, so that myth is traditional narrative with a high degree of ideological saturation” (von Hendy 2002, 269, 277). This definition accords with the fact that muthos, the Greek word that most closely approximates myth, also designates “story” generally, and, as we might expect in an oral culture, “speech” (its meaning of “fiction” is post-Homeric).

  • In Memoriam Calvert Watkins
    In Memoriam Calvert Watkins (*13 March 1933 – † 20 March 2013) Calvert Watkins, Distinguished Professor in Residence of the Department of Classics and Program in Indo- European Studies, University of California, Los Angeles, died during the night of March 20, 2013, at his home in Los Angeles. Having suffered from ill health for several months, he appeared to be on his way to recovery at the time of his death. He was born in Pittsburgh, March 13, 1933, son of Ralph James and Willye (Ward) Watkins. Both his father, an economist who held a number of advisory positions with the United States government, and his mother were born in San Marcos, Texas, where Calvert also spent several years of his childhood and which he called home. Calvert Watkins received both his A.B. degree and his Ph.D. in Linguistics from Harvard University in 1954 and 1959 respectively. Also formational for his academic career were his studies at the École Pratique des Hautes Études in Paris 1954-55 and 1958 and at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies, School of Celtic Studies 1957-58. A junior fellow of the Society of Fellows at Harvard 1956-59, he was appointed instructor there in 1959, assistant professor in 1960, associate professor (with tenure) in 1962, and full professor in 1966. In 1989 he was appointed the Victor S.

There is no overall, shared conception of what driver training should include, how long it should last and what kind of a teacher is required in the process. In some countries, such as Norway and Estonia, driving teachers get their certificates at the university level, just like any other teacher working in the field of education. In others, like Finland, driving teachers need to have a so-called specialist vocational qualification. These are the highest vocational or secondary level qualifications, as opposed to the higher education programmes that teachers need in the Finnish context.

  • The Indo-European Religious Background of the Gygēs Tale in Hērodotos
    The Indo-European Religious Background of the Gygēs Tale in Hērodotos Ethan M. A. Rite The first “short story” included in the Histories of Hērodotos narrates the rise of the Mermnad dynasty of Lydia through an act of assassination and usurpation by their founder, Gygēs.1 To make a long tale short, the Lydian king Kandaulēs, being obsessed with his wife, contrives to show her naked to his bodyguard Gygēs. After catching him in the act, the queen confronts Gygēs and forces him to choose between murdering his master or being killed himself. He takes the former option and establishes himself and his descendants as rulers of Lydia up to the time of Kroisos. In the commentary of Asheri, Lloyd, and Corcella, this story is characterized as a “court tale,” but is further analyzed neither with respect to its oral-historical background nor its motivic structure.2 This paper will argue that the Gygēs narrative reflects a far more ancient, Indo- European ideology representing the sovereign power as a goddess wedded to the sovereign himself in a sacred marriage. What is the Sacred Marriage? As employed in this article, the term “sacred marriage” refers to a meme in the religions of ancient Europe and West Asia which metaphorically cast good rulership as a harmonious wedding between the king, the representative of his people, and the earth, personified as a female divinity. The origin of this concept is readily apparent, as the successful maintenance of civilization depends upon an ecological balance between the human population and all other organisms, on whom they rely for nourishment and whom they, in turn, feed and cultivate.

  • Book of Abstracts
    The use of dual forms in Hesiod: Observations about its gradual dwindling in the Theogony and in Works and Days Sara Agliardi Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg The considerable quantitative disparity between the occurrences1 of dual forms in the Theogony and in Works and Days becomes outright evident by means of a closer examination of the data: in Works and Days almost three times as many dual forms as in the Theogony are employed: such a peculiarity seems to be not completely accidental and likely depends on the different stadiums of the language´s evolution which reflects Hesiod´s specific stylistic decision, correspondingly to the respective themes and addressees of the poems. The author of the Theogony appears not to employ the dual in an active way for he uses this numerus only where a plural would not be metrically2 suitable. On the contrary, if the option between dual and plural is open, then will the author mostly opt for a plural.3 In Works and Days the quantity of dual forms in proportion to the verses is by a third higher than in the Theogony4. Furthermore, in Works and Days the choice between dual and plural seems to be made for metric reasons in four cases only5: where a dual occurs, almost always6 also a plural form would be possible and vice versa. Additionally it is possible to assert that the dwindling of the dual appears to follow the same path as in Attic Greek7: its decomposition starts with the verb and is then extended to nominal forms. In fact, the duals in these poems are mostly nouns8: only three occur in a verbal form9, two of them in the Theogony.

  • ANCESTRY-CONSTRAINED PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS SUPPORTS the INDO-EUROPEAN STEPPE HYPOTHESIS Will Chang Chundra Cathcart
    ANCESTRY-CONSTRAINED PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS SUPPORTS THE INDO-EUROPEAN STEPPE HYPOTHESIS Will Chang Chundra Cathcart University of California, Berkeley University of California, Berkeley David Hall Andrew Garrett University of California, Berkeley University of California, Berkeley Discussion of Indo-European origins and dispersal focuses on two hypotheses. Qualitative evi - dence from reconstructed vocabulary and correlations with archaeological data suggest that Indo- European languages originated in the Pontic-Caspian steppe and spread together with cultural innovations associated with pastoralism, beginning c. 6500–5500 bp . An alternative hypothesis, according to which Indo-European languages spread with the diffusion of farming from Anatolia, beginning c. 9500–8000 bp , is supported by statistical phylogenetic and phylogeographic analyses of lexical traits. The time and place of the Indo-European ancestor language therefore remain dis - puted. Here we present a phylogenetic analysis in which ancestry constraints permit more accurate inference of rates of change, based on observed changes between ancient or medieval languages and their modern descendants, and we show that the result strongly supports the steppe hypothe - sis. Positing ancestry constraints also reveals that homoplasy is common in lexical traits, contrary to the assumptions of previous work. We show that lexical traits undergo recurrent evolution due to recurring patterns of semantic and morphological change. * Keywords : lexical change, linguistic phylogenetics, Indo-European chronology, Indo-European dispersal, steppe hypothesis This article has three main goals. First, we show that statistical phylogenetic analysis supports the traditional steppe hypothesis about the origins and dispersal of the Indo- European language family. We explain why other similar analyses, some of them widely publicized, reached a different result.
