Abstract:
The development of ancient epistolography could be associated with the very development of literacy in Greece. Apart from its original function, to transfer a notice to a distant person, the letter has expanded its realm over time. Trough an overview of the letters preserved in the Greek language area and in the works of Greek authors, we can see various functions the letter assumed – both in everyday life and in literature. Numerous accounts and fragments of letters, from short business notice on lead tablets to private letters written on papyrus, which served as a means for preserving famili

Abstract:
This article highlights the general reception of the evolution of writing. The development of writing as a system of signs is under consideration. It is ascertained that writing is a basic concept of graphical linguistics as its separate branch, and graphics is an underlying principle of each ethnos linguoculture, which is fixed in the process of language formation. It is accepted that writing is a crucial invention of mankind since it stimulated the further development and transmission of information. The initial form of writing was launched by the ancient Sumerians and Egyptians. The stages

Abstract:
The origin of the Greek alphabet has been a longstanding topic of academic inquiry and debate. Advocates of the Phoenician hypothesis posit that, due to the absence of Greek inscriptions between the 12th and 8th centuries BCE, the Greeks likely adopted the Phoenician abjad—a writing system comprising only 22 consonantal characters—and later modified it to suit their linguistic needs. However, the scarcity of surviving Greek inscriptions from this era does not definitively prove the absence of a pre-existing Greek writing system. In contrast, Linear B, a script used by the Greeks between 1500 a

Abstract:
Mirror-writing has consistently intrigued researchers throughout the years. This study is the first to explore Greek-letter and Arabic-digit reversals from typically developing children within the Greek School Environment. The hypotheses were: (1) Visual discrimination, visual memory, and visual-spatial relationships skills will negatively correlate with the occurrence of character reversals, (2) Left-oriented symbols will be reversed most frequently, (3) Children from year 1 will exhibit fewer reversals than children in nurseries. To test those predictions, 117 children (4.5 to 7.5 years) wer

Abstract:
The letter of recommendation was known in Antiquity as a separate genre of letter writing for which a certain set of compositional techniques and formulae were developed. In Byzantium, too, the letter of recommendation was in great demand: letters in which the author presents his protégé to the addressee and, as a rule, asks him to perform something for him are not difficult to find in the epistolary collections of many authors from the 4th to the 15th century. Meanwhile, while the ancient letter of recommendation is well studied, the etiquette of this genre in the Byzantine tradition has hard

Abstract:
That the placement of name inscriptions (letter-chains naming figures or, in rare instances, other pictorial elements) in Greek vase-painting followed certain conventions was noticed early by scholars. In his seminal Non-Attic Greek Vase Inscriptions, Rudolf Wachter succinctly described two main “principles of labelling” : the “starting-point principle” and the “direction principle”.1 While these conventions allow for some variation which is mainly determined by the availability of space, the basic rule of the starting-point principle is that a name is placed close (but preferably not too clos

After a short introduction to code-switching and Classics, this article offers an overview of the phenomenon of code-switching in Roman literature with some comments on possible generic restrictions, followed by a survey of Roman attitudes to the practice. The analysis then focuses on Roman letter writing and investigates code-switching in the second-century correspondence of Fronto (mainly letters between Marcus Aurelius, who became Emperor in AD 161, and his tutor Fronto). This discussion uses part of a new detailed database of Greek code-switches in Roman epistolography and is largely socio

Abstract:
The doctoral thesis aims at presenting the language and style of early Byzantine epistolography, as well as the ideas and emotions that underlie it, seen through the prism of unpublished material from the collection of the Austrian National Library in Vienna. Its starting point is the examination of private letters written on papyri dated from the 4th to the 7th century AD. The dissertation processes a "raw" material, thanks to which we can get an immediate insight into linguistic and stylistic evolution, social networks developing in the Byzantine province of Egypt, people and their emotions.

Chi-rho ⳩ is universally known as the Christian monogram, consisting of the first two letters of the name Χριϲτόϲ. In ancient times, it coexisted with other common signs, the staurogram ⳨ and stauros ϯ, both connected to the Holy Cross of Jesus. An analysis of the development of these signs in papyrological evidence from Hellenistic, Roman, and Late-Antique Egypt allows us to track the everyday use of these writing strategies from their pre-Christian origins onward. While the staurogram and stauros are extensively employed in late documents to place texts under God’s protection, the chi-rho de

Abstract:
Late Roman documents inscribed in Greek on wall space in Asia Minor look surprisingly different from earlier Greek documentary inscriptions also inscribed on walls, which were often carved with the text subdivided into neat and orderly columns. By contrast, some late antique documents were carved in continuous lines stretching for metres, and they incorporate disparate visual features, such as kalends dates in Latin cursive letters. Rather than assume that such mise en page and visual characteristics represent the “decline” of classical epigraphic traditions, I trace the dissolution of the old

The Greek-French avant-garde composer and architect Iannis Xenakis was mostly active in Paris throughout his creative life. However, as a young artist, he took part in a year-long residency in Berlin, where he engaged deeply in artistic and theoretical work. This period proved fruitful, as he formulated certain aspects of his aesthetics in the domains of both music and architecture. After the residency, the composer continued to return to the city following various engagements for more than three decades.
