Abstract:
The relatively small set of Demotic astrological texts from Medinet Habu may be increased by a newly identified horoscope recorded on an ostracon held at the Cairo Museum. Despite the lack of pertinent data in the official records, the origin of this sherd seems to be certain thanks to some telling palaeographical and textual indications. The date recorded on this potsherd indicates the late first century AD and refers explicitly to the Alexandrian calendar. With regard to the content, it preserves the general format and layout of the Demotic horoscopes on ostraca from Medinet Habu, albeit with some small differences in the type and arrangement of the data. This horoscope leaves out some astronomical data common to other Medinet Habu horoscopes which, along with some other Theban horoscopic ostraca, might confirm a trend among Theban astrologers going from more detailed and complicated compositions to less elaborate and more simplified ones.

Abstract:
In the present article I examine the extant horoscopes of three kings of Hungary, Ladislaus the Posthumous (1440–1457), his successor, Matthias Corvinus (1458–1490), and Louis II (1516–1526). Several of these horoscopes were little used by or completely unknown to modern historians, and a systematic treatment of them was a desiderata in the Hungarian scholarship for a long time. Although when examining sixteenth-century geniture collections the exact source and transmission history of a single horoscope is often difficult to reconstruct, in some cases the source of nativity horoscopes can be traced back from Johannes Kepler through Paul Eber, Georg Joachim Rheticus, Philipp Melanchthon and Johannes Schöner to Johannes Regiomontanus and Georg von Peuerbach.

Abstract:
Astrology is an advanced and glamorous science, which plays a major role in predicting different events that happen in human life. It consists of scientific and analytical computations that depend on various phases of the orbital movements in the form of degrees; the précised level of planet movements can predict the cosmic energy and also articulate the accurate interpretations of horoscope information on the basis of a constellation of a given birth chart. Way back in 200 BC, an astronomer has adopted Mathematical interventions to measure the distance of planets from the sun and predicted various astrological manifestations. Nowadays, at the global platform, a very few numbers of research articles described the Mathematical and Pragmatic approach of astrological predictions. In this paradigm, we have formulated an advanced Stochastic Probability Convergence predictive model to describe the practical interventions and different features of horoscope and advancement of cosmic energy on the basis of comprehensive phenomena. This formulated model will be highly useful for astrologers to forecast the cosmic energy and different malafacies of human life on a day-to-day basis. Our formulated predictive model is handy and also capable to produce the accurate predictions of horoscopes. Based on the model convergence outputs, the Astronomers drew the real astrological interpretations scientifically without any Jargon and personal assumptions.

Abstract:
Not only in Europe but also in India, kings and emperors used astrology as a ‘scientific proof’ for their claims to power. As it still was regarded as a science, it could provide useful justification for a king’s great destiny, even though horoscopes are so complex that almost every fact can be ‘found’ in them by a clever combination of their data. Though doubts about astrology existed, the Mughal emperors used astrology extensively. Two of them, Akbar (1556-1605) and his grandson Shāh Jahān (1628-1658), included horoscopes in the introductions of their official chronicles. Both wanted to prove that they were the renovator of Islam in the second Islamic millennium. Akbar had this done in defiance of religion, Shāh Jahān in compliance, but both with a definitive effort to twist the information from the heavens in a way that suited them. Both used horoscopes to explain the tenets of their reign as a requirement of the age. In the case of Shāh Jahān, we even find personal sentiments and changes over time, comparing an earlier and a slightly later horoscope.

Abstract:
La constitution d'un corpus d'horoscopes autour de ceux de louis XIV, nous a conduits à nous interroger sur la présence réelle de l'astrologie au cours du XVIIe siècle et à explorer la mise en application de l'art de connaitre l'avenir des astrologues. L'analyse de ces documents apporte un éclairage nouveau sur la pratique des horoscopes, et révèle qu'ils s'efforcent de répondre aux interrogations de l'homme sur son avenir tant individuel : satisfaction de ses passions et de son désir de la liberté, que collectif : accomplissement de la monarchie universelle et des prophéties bibliques. Nous découvrons aussi que ces investigations célestes obéissent à une autre logique que celle de la science rationaliste et que la question de l'influence des astres sur l'homme fait place à celle de l'influence des interprétations. Une lecture plurielle de ces documents déploie le sens de leurs contenus et de leurs productions dans différents registres : historique, politique, théologique, anthropologique. Notre étude ne permet pas d'étayer la thèse de l'abandon de la pratique de l'astrologie dans la seconde moitie du XVIIe siècle mais témoigne de sa vitalité et de sa pérennité a travers le grand siècle, tant a la ville qu'a la cour.

This paper aims at studying the persuasive language of horoscopes from online versions of the following American newspapers: Los Angeles Times, New York Daily News, Chicago Tribune and San Francisco Chronicle. 2544 horoscopes have been selected during 53 days, and 943 conditional structures have been found. Latour and Woolgar (1979) state that the objective of rhethoric persuasion is to convince the participants that they haven t been convinced, and Halliday (1985) points out that persuasion tends to be highly implicit and to avoid attitudinal language, which is usually associated with interpersonal meaning. The horoscope is a text genre, thus, according to Martin (1984), it can be separated in stages, each of those with its specific function. 37,06% of the analized horoscopes present some kind of conditional structure, with the explicit connector, if (30,75%), or implicit ones (69,25%). Protasis occurs, mostly (71,15%), preposed to the apodosis, functioning as sentence Themes, and, therefore, restricting the content of the Rhemes. The language of horoscopes also presents elements of metadiscursive modality, such as person markers, hedges and emphatics. Besides, one of the stages consists of a kind of truth, a belief that has its roots in polular culture and that helps the reader rescue a specific intertext that the hosroscope writer previously had in mind. In addition, there is the theory of frames (Bednarek, 2005), responsible for text coherence which is attributed, in this case, by the text readers -, that focuses on the relation among text, context, world knowledge, and coherence. Thus, by reading a horoscope, the reader interacts with the text, giving it the most coherent meaning according to their own world knowledge. These factors prepare the readers for the reading and, therefore, they do not question what has been predicted by the author and, at the same time, they act impelled by the power of this genre. The same factors also prevent the horoscope writers from making mistakes regarding their predictions. All that makes horoscopes a highly pesuasive text genre.This kind of persuasion is implicit, for it makes use of a combination of specific lexico-grammatical choices and specific contexts. Regarding the lexico-grammar, this paper focuses on structures that convey conditional meanings, emphasizing Géis s (1971) concept of invited inferences and the relation between conditional structures and Theme, and conditional meaning. It also refers to Critical Discourse Analysis (Fairclough, 1992; Fowler, 1991), concerning the social function of language, and to Halliday s (1985; 1994) functional model, for the connection between language structures and social values. People are interested in horoscopes because they seem to work as a source for advice and entertainment as, according to Spengler (1969), religious faith has been replaced by other beliefs. The metodology adopted is interpretative, based on quantitative data
Esta pesquisa propõe-se a estudar a linguagem persuasiva dos horóscopos, coletados online, dos seguintes jornais dos Estados Unidos: Los Angeles Times, New York Daily News, Chicago Tribune and San Francisco Chronicle (USA). Foram compilados 2544 horóscopos, durante 53 dias e foram encontradas 943 construções condicionais. Latour e Woolgar (1979) afirmam que o objetivo da persuasão retórica é convencer os participantes de que não foram convencidos e Halliday (1985) aponta que a persuasão tende a ser altamente implícita e a evitar a linguagem atitudinal normalmente associada ao significado interpessoal. O horóscopo é um gênero, e, assim, de acordo com a definição de Martin (1984), divide-se em estágios, cada um com sua finalidade específica. Dos horóscopos examinados, 37,06% apresentam a construção condicional, com conectivo explícito, isto é, com se (30,75% dos casos) ou implícito (69,25% dos casos). A prótase ocorre, na maioria dos casos (71,15%), anteposta à apódose, funcionando, portanto, como tema, ou seja, determinando o conteúdo do rema. Por outro lado, a linguagem do horóscopo conta com a modalidade do metadiscurso, através de marcadores pessoais, hedges e enfatizadores. Além disso, um dos estágios reflete na maioria dos casos uma verdade, uma crença arraigada na cultura popular, que ajuda a fazer o leitor recuperar um intertexto, evidentemente, pretendido pelo autor do texto. A isso, junta-se a noção de enquadres (Bednarek, 2005), responsável pela coerência do texto, que é, segundo ela, atribuída por parte dos leitores e ouvintes, focalizando a relação entre texto, contexto, conhecimento de mundo e coerência. Assim, ao ler um horóscopo, o leitor interage com o texto e dá a ele o significado mais coerente de acordo com seu conhecimento de mundo. Esses fatores concorrem para que, assim condicionados, os leitores não questionem as previsões do astrólogo e ajam guiados pela força do gênero, e para que o escritor possa esquivar-se da responsabilidade por eventuais falhas que seus prognósticos apresentem, fazendo do horóscopo, portanto, um gênero altamente persuasivo. A esse tipo de persuasão denomina-se implícita, pois ocorre graças a escolhas léxico-gramaticais, que, combinadas a contextos específicos, tornam o texto persuasivo. Nesse sentido, quanto à léxico-gramática, focamos a escolha de estruturas que expressam condicionalidade, enfatizando o conceito de inferências convidadas de Géis (1971) e abordando a relação entre a construção condicional e o Tema e a expressão da condicional. Também há referência à análise crítica do discurso, com Fairclough (1992) e Fowler (1991) referindo-se ao funcionamento social da língua e ao modelo funcional desenvolvido por Halliday (1985; 1994) e seus pesquisadores para o exame da conexão entre estrutura lingüística e valores sociais. As pessoas voltam-se à astrologia por meio dos horóscopos com as finalidades de entretenimento e aconselhamento, já que, segundo Spengler (1969), a fé religiosa é substituída por outras crenças à medida que o homem se dá conta de que a vida não tem sentido após a morte. A metodologia adotada para a análise dos dados tem cunho interpretativista, com base em dados quantitativos

This research aims to analyze the discourse of gender horoscope on different media, especially in women's magazines, noting the marks of change and permanence socio-historical and discursive sustained over time. The investigation will be made from the genre published in magazines, especially in facing the female audience in almanacs and Internet. To achieve this scope, we launched a analytical look on our subject from theoretical alliances, which are: a Discourse Theory of Traditions and Linguistic Change, Theory of the Imaginary, the theory of discourse analysis and cultural studies, from of theoretical studies as Eugenio Coseriu, Johannes Kabatek, Gilbert Durand, Mircea Eliade, CarlJung, Michel Foucault, Michel Pecheux, Eni Orlandi, Stuart Hall, Zygmunt Bauman, among others, seeking thereby to account for the discursive constructions, imagistic, symbolic and mythical traditions that relate to that underlie gender horoscope as well as the update of this discourse in other genres. Regarding methodological aspects, it is a qualitative research, literature and exploratory, aiming to provide greater awareness of the problem in order to make it explicit. From the analysis we can see that the discourse is marked by horoscope-discursive traditions imagery from the recurrence of linguistic and extralinguistic elements. It also apeared that the discourse of contemporary gender horoscope in magazines is eminently feminine.
Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo analisar o discurso do gênero horóscopo em diferentes suportes, em especial, em revistas femininas, atentando para as marcas de mudança e de permanência sócio-histórico-discursivas sofridas ao longo do tempo. A investigação foi feita a partir do gênero publicado em revistas, principalmente nas voltadas para o público feminino, em almanaques e Internet. Para alcançar tal escopo, lançamos um olhar analítico sobre nosso objeto de estudo a partir de alianças teóricas, quais sejam: a Teoria das Tradições Discursivas e Mudanças Linguísticas, a Teoria do Imaginário, a Teoria da Análise do Discurso e os estudos culturais, a partir dos estudos de teóricos como Eugenio Coseriu, Johannes Kabatek, Gilbert Durand, Mircea Eliade, Carl Jung, Michel Foucault, Michel Pêcheux, Eni Orlandi, Stuart Hall, Zygmunt Bauman, entre outros, procurando, com isso, dar conta das construções sociais, históricas, discursivas, imagéticas, simbólicas e míticas que dizem respeito às tradições que dão base ao gênero horóscopo, bem como a atualização desse discurso em outros gêneros discursivos. Quanto aos aspectos metodológicos, trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, bibliográfica e exploratória, visando proporcionar maior familiaridade com o problema a fim de torná-lo explícito. A partir das análises, conseguimos observar que o discurso do horóscopo é marcado por tradições imagético-discursivas, com base na recorrência de elementos linguísticos e extralinguísticos. Também foi possível constatar que o discurso do gênero horóscopo nas revistas contemporâneas é eminentemente feminino.

Abstract:
The present dissertation constitutes a critical analysis of the discourse of the beauty myth which manifests itself in the Cosmopolitan ideology. The linguistic analysis was conducted on a sample of the above-mentioned discourse, realised by daily horoscopes of the Cosmopolitan magazine. These Cosmopolitan horoscopes constitute a research material in the thesis. The aim of the work is the study of discourse and the beauty myth understood as a compilation of false convictions concerning femininity, social roles of women, their identity and sexuality. The essential assumption in the research is that myth is a type of speech and, therefore, a discursive phenomenon, and that it persuasively shapes and reinforces the socio-cultural-linguistic image of women and femininity in order to fulfil the expectations and requirements of contemporary consumer reality embedded in patriarchal culture. The work consisting of theoretical background, a research part and conclusions has been divided into eight chapters, preceded by Introduction presenting fundamental aims and the scope of the research. Chapter 1 concerns discourse analysis and presents horoscope as a genre representing the discourse of the beauty myth. Chapter 2 describes myth as a discourse phenomenon, attempts at defining the concept of myth and discusses the mechanism of its functioning. Chapter 3 presents the linguistic-cultural picture of the contemporary woman and the woman-body-identity relation as approached from the feminist perspective. It also explains the beauty myth phenomenon in contemporary consumer society. Chapter 4 includes the characteristics of the research, outlines aims and the methodology of the analyses conducted in the work, it also explains the reasons for applying Cosmopolitan horoscopes as a research sample. Chapter 5 reveals the discursive dimension of the beauty myth. The analysis embraces a qualitative and quantitative study of the texts in question. Different aspects of discourse, such as discourse community and context have also been discussed here. Furthermore, the chapter presents lexical, syntactic and compositional manifestations of the language of success in the corpus. Chapter 6 focuses on the axiological dimension of the discourse of the beauty myth and is an attempt at explaining the mechanism of this phenomenon. To an extent, the chapter is simultaneously a critical consideration of the beauty myth, although the actual criticism of the discourse is included in the last chapter. Chapter 7 is an attempt to create a prototypical Cosmopolitan horoscope. This specific summary of the research is simultaneously an introduction to the author’s own interpretation of the mechanism of the beauty myth. Chapter 8 constitutes the summary of the dissertation and includes conclusions which indicate the presence of the beauty myth in the discourse represented by Cosmopolitan ideology, and realised through horoscopical texts and the context in which they are embedded. The discourse of the beauty myth is critically approached due to its detrimental influence on the socio-cultural construction of female identity in contemporary patriarchal culture dominated by consumerism, and targeted at financial benefits and the maintenance of particular power relations. Lastly, the dissertation includes Bibliography, Index of tables, Index of figures and Appendix.

Abstract:
Darstellungen der Planeten und ihrer Kinder gehörten zu den ersten paganen Bildern, die im Spätmittelalter produziert und rezipiert wurden. Während der rund 200 Jahre ihres hauptsächlichen Auftretens, bis zum Ende des 16. Jahrhunderts, erreichten sie eine enorme Popularität. Im Weltbild des Mittelalters und der frühen Neuzeit war jeder Mensch von dem Gestirn geprägt, unter dessen Einfluss er geboren wurde. Dieser Planet bestimmte, wie man körperlich und charakterlich beschaffen war, welchen Beruf man ausübte und welche gesellschaftliche Stellung man erwarten durfte. Der Geburtsmoment sorgte für eine lebenslange, familiäre Verbindung zum Gestirn, man wurde quasi zu dessen Kind. Die Macht der Sterne zeichnet die Entwicklung von der ersten Erwähnung der Planetenkinder in Schriftquellen, über die Herausbildung eines relativ stabilen ikonografischen Kanons in verschiedenen Medien, funktionsgebundene Variationen bis zum Aufgehen in anderen Bildgattungen nach. Die zumeist siebenteiligen Zyklen stellen sich als Teil eines weit ausgebauten Beziehungsgefüges und Verweissystems dar, in dem sich das jeweilige gesellschaftliche Bild der Zeit spiegelt. Die Darstellungen dokumentieren zudem zentrale Entwicklungen des individuellen Denkens bis zum Ende des 16. Jahrhunderts. Sie zeigen, wie das jeweils aktuelle kosmologische Verständnis und Wissen einem breiten Publikum durch Bilder vermittelt werden konnte, wie dies mit dem religiösen Leben vereinbar war oder sich im Alltag niederschlug. Planetenkinder-Darstellungen hatten im Verlauf ihrer Geschichte vielfältige Funktionen. In ihnen manifestierte sich die Vorstellung einer Einheit der Dinge in zahlreichen Analogien. Gezielt eingesetzt wurden die Bilder zur Markierung sozialer Aufstiege, politischer Interessen und der Reklamation von Machtansprüchen sowie der Repräsentation von Einfluss bzw. Verherrlichung von Auftraggebern. Die Bilder zeigen philosophische Diskurse auf, verweisen auf konkrete historische Ereignisse und bewerten diese.
Representations of the planets and their children were among the first pagan images to be produced and adopted in the late Middle Ages. During the circa 200 years in which they mainly appeared, up until the end of the sixteenth century, they became enormously popular. In the worldview of the Middle Ages and early modern era, every person was believed to be influenced by the celestial body under whose influence they were born. This planet determined one’s physical appearance and character, one’s profession, and the social standing one could expect. The moment of birth ensured the continuation of a life-long, familiar connection to this celestial body, and a person was effectively considered its “child”. Die Macht der Sterne traces these developments from the first written references to the children of the planets, through to the emergence of a relatively stable iconographical canon in various media, variations in terms of function, as well as their appearance in other pictorial genres. These cycles, usually consisting of seven parts, presented themselves as part of a highly elaborate relational structure and system of references which reflected the current social worldview. The images also document key developments in individual thought up until the end of the sixteenth century. They show how the prevailing understanding of the cosmos and knowledge could be communicated to a wide audience by means of imagery, how this was reconciled with religious life, and how it was reflected in everyday life. Over the course of their history, images of the children of the planets served a variety of functions. By means of a number of analogies they illustrated the notion of the unity of all things. These images were also consciously employed to underscore social advancement, political interests, and the reassertion of claims to power as well as representations of influence or the glorification of patrons. These depictions also highlight philosophical discourses and refer to concrete historical events while offering evaluations of these phenomena.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper describes an original active steering device for endoscopes and horoscopes. Its mechanical structure is based on a tubular hyper-redundant mechanism. Distributed SMA actuators with their own local controller are integrated in this structure for producing bending forces in reaction to the interaction detected between the instrument and its environment. The SMA actuators are two thin NiTi springs in an antagonist configuration. Joint actuation relies on martensite/austenite phase transformation in NiTi alloys. The global behavior of the endoscope is controlled through a multi-agent approach.
