Full textThe main goal of the research work is to present a survey on the Anatolian hieroglyphic script between the middle of the 2nd millennium BC – when a series of symbols already known and used in Anatolia takes the form of a proper writing system – and the first centuries of the 1st millennium BC. The text corpus chosen as case study mainly consists of the monumental inscriptions dating to the Hittite Empire Period. These inscriptions and their main characteristics have been subsequently compared with some representative texts dating to the Neo-Hittite period. Concerning the methodological aspects of the research, instead of a philological and linguistic analysis of the corpus taken into consideration, it has been preferred an approach able to take into account the social practices connected with the use of the writing system. According to this methodological choice, special attention has been paid to the text carriers, the organization of the texts’ layout, the role played by the authors and the scribes, the ‘consumption’ of the texts by the target audience, and the political and ideological character of the inscriptions. In addition, in the light of the fundamental nature of the Anatolian hieroglyphic system, the signs of which are both images and signs of writing, particular attention has also been paid to the link existing between ‘writing’ and ‘visual’ codes, and especially to the ambiguous relationship existing between the iconographic and textual elements of the inscriptions

Full textMore than an auxiliary science, epigraphy is a major source of Roman history. It can reveal pieces of ancient society that does not always reveal the literary sources, especially when studying the history of the regions of the Roman world. Such is the case of the Alpes-Maritimes, poorly documented on the literary map. It is then necessary to analyze the Latin inscriptions that reveal certain attitudes of local people in relation to the writing on the stone and its support. To better understand the relationship between the old and inscriptions, a comparison is made between local epigraphy (that is to say, the Alpes-Maritimes) and external epigraphy, regional as universal. What is special about the local epigraphy in relation to them ? What are the formulas that appear? What are the enrollment materials that are popular with people? Geography does play a role in the movement of epigraphic ideas?It establishes a list of inscriptions that can inform the specifics of local epigraphy. These inscriptions relate mainly to the cities of the province of Alpes-Maritimes (Cimiez, Vence, Briançonnet Castellane) and regions that do not belong (the coast from Nice to Monaco, Saint-Dalmas-de-Valdeblore). Follows a comparison of the Alpes-Maritimes and the outside, especially the closest regions like Antibes country or region vintimilloise. The chronology is taken into account. The period of the first to third centuries AD was chosen among others for the huge number of entries of the Roman Empire, since the local epigraphy fourth-fifth centuries of lack of documents that allow comparison. A significant change formulas or materials in the Christian era is no stranger to the rejection of this period. The thesis is divided into three parts : besides the catalog inscriptions analyzed, the other two are based on a comparison of materials (stone, urn, sarcophagus, etc.) and religious, funerary and honorific forms. The last two chapters can be discerned fundamental differences not only across the Empire, but also at the regional (eastern Provence and Liguria) and local (interesting differences between Cimiez and Vence)
Paksi, Julianna Kitti. "Hétérogénéité linguistique dans les inscriptions royales ramessides." Thesis, Université Paris sciences et lettres, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020UPSLP044.
Full textThis study examines the phenomenon of linguistic heterogeneity — the concurrent use of simultaneously existing standard written varieties of the Egyptian language — in the royal inscriptions of the Ramesside era (ca. 1300–1100 BCE). A detailed, three-dimensional approach was adopted to this end — which takes into account the grammatical, lexical, and orthographic selections of the inscriptions — and was applied to a relatively small sample of texts. The detailed analysis of Seti I’s Kanais Inscription, Merenptah’s Hermopolis Stela, Ramesses III’s Great Double Stela, and Ramesses IV’s Great Hammamat Inscription and Great Abydos Stela to Osiris and the Gods shows that linguistic variation was generally put in service of the inscriptions’ central message and compositional logic. In the language of these texts, linguistic heterogeneity thus commonly functions as a text structuring and as a rhetorical device. The in-depth study of several Ramesside royal inscriptions demonstrates, furthermore, that the ancient composers of the texts had a creative and innovative way of dealing with past layers of their language. They reinvented and recreated the traditions they were aiming at. This rather pragmatic and productive approach to the past, nevertheless, had a specific point of reference: the early Eighteenth Dynasty (ca. 1550–1350 BCE) and, particularly, the monumental royal inscriptions thereof. The linguistic heterogeneity of the Ramesside royal inscriptions thus reflects the cultural dynamics of the era and serves as the linguistic manifestation of the Ramesside kings’ cultural and political identity by representing a balancing act between tradition and innovation

Full textThis dissertation aims at analysing 159 inscriptions from the city of western Tripoli dating from the Ottoman period (1555 - 1906). This epigraphic corpus, for the main part unpublished, stands out for his value, since it sheds more light on the history of the city and on its representatives. Each inscription, be it monumental or funeral, studied from an historical, as well as a material (decoration, media, writing and palaeography) context. The language (Arabic and sometimes Osmanli), the content and the form are thoroughly analysed. Volume 1 includes the corpus of the inscriptions, each of which is analysed, translated and annotated in a standard form. Volume 2 presents the analysis of the data. Finally, volume 3 contains the plans, maps, photos and facsimiles. This study highlights the heritage and epigraphic richness of Tripoli and its region ; it opens the way to new investigations on the Ottoman Regency

Full textThis thesis aims to study the organisation of the urban space of Petra and its surroundings from the fourth century bc to the sixth century ad using archaeological and epigraphic data. Its purpose is to show that the site of petra, about which our knowledge was until now somewhat restricted to the monumental center, fits in fact in a much larger geographical space. This space is composed not only of the rock massives and the hills that surround the central basin but also af a few outlying sites the major activities of which are the control of the caravan trade and agriculture. Thus, this thesis presents first the identification sheets extracted from a computer data base which contains all the archaeological and epigraphic informations collected, including published and unpublished material, and a map showing all the archaeological vestiges recorded on the site. Secondly, it presents an analysis of this data : following two chapters in which are presented the history of the archaeological research on petra and the natural environment of the site, the first part of this analysis is a description of the various categories and types of monuments. The second part of it is an analysis, within each topographical area of the site, of the distribution of the monuments accordind to their type. Followed by hypotheses on the function and chronology of each area. The third part is a synthesis by category (houses, sanctuaries, necropolis, fortifications and circulation) of the data on the whole site. It made it possible to determine the extension of the different categories of vestiges and the relations they have with each other, in order to show the different phases of development and decline of the city and the. .

Full textThese researches participate in a wide reflection led at present on the demographic behavior of the population of Rome. Recent works defined a specific demographic model of the antique megalopolis, where an insufficient birthrate and a strong mortality rate would have prevented the renewal of the generations. The population of Rome would have held steady thanks to an immigration coming from Italy and from the provinces. This doctorate joins in the field of the social history of the population of Rome. It analyzes the family behavior in the lower classes, and the place of the child in the family. It bases itself on a study of funerary verse inscriptions (carmina Latina epigraphica), dating back to the end of the Republic and the Empire. It so presents a corpus of epitaphs dedicated to children (with an age mentioned), as well as a study of this catalog. This study analyzes the nature and the role of the carmen in commemoratives practices. It specifies the identity of the deceased and the social origin of families ; then it evokes the structure of these families by listing all the persons mentioned in the epitaphs. It reveals complex structures of family, where there are many illegitimate children, because of the current or past slavish status of certain relatives. It approaches finally the question of the place of the child in the family, by examining the modes of expression of sorrow, according to the various literary motives and chosen speakers. This research allows to know better the status of the child within the modest families and the attitude of these families in front of birth and of death

Full textThe purpose of this thesis is to study the Cretan necropolis and burials at the Hellenistic and Imperial periods. This thesis is divided in five sections. Each one analyse in depth the following topics. First comes the analysis of the funeral areas' topography and its relationship with the housing. The second chapter is focused on the analysis of the funeral structures, proposing in particular a typology of the monumental architecture. The third chapter deals with the composition and meaning of the funeral furniture. In the fourth chapter takes place the study of the funeral rituals. The last chapter proposes a study of the epitaphs in order to contribute to a socio-cultural identification of the dead bodies. A catalogue of the archaeological data about the burials and necropolis, an appendix dealing with the sarcophagi, and another dealing with the epitaphs, appear in separate volumes

Full textThis thesis presents the history of the site of Abydos and its relevance as a religious and mystical center until Roman times. At the same time, it presents the chronicle of those personages who visited the temple of Seti I, located in this enclave, from ancient times until the end of the nineteenth century, leaving evidence of their presence in various publications full of comments and insights. The information is supplemented by the exposure of the all archaeological actions and other interventions carried out in the sanctuary from the twentieth century to the present. Then it carried out a description of the Templar enclosure of Sethy I emphasizing its architectural, symbolic and iconographic aspects attached to the cults represented in the various sectors that make up this sacred building. From the constituent elements of the temple and the great mystical significance of the place with the god Osiris, a number of hypotheses focused on the singular aspects presented by the temple and with the ultimate purpose of its construction associated with the Osireion. Thus, the first chapter focuses on the presentation of the site of Abydos as a whole as well as in the development of the enclave, a religious level, throughout the history of ancient Egypt to the presence of the Roman world. A second chapter is about Osiris and his close ties with Abydos, highlighting the mystery rites. The third chapter presents succinctly, the architect of the temple, as well as his time, in addition to highlighting the importance of Seti I for his Abydos’s temple. The fourth chapter presents the history of investigations of the sanctuary of Seti I at Abydos and its rediscovery. Once established the history of the temple and the action taken for his recovery, the fifth and sixth chapters focus on the presenting and interpretation of architectural, symbolic and iconographic aspects offered in the temple. A last chapter, the seventh, sets out the general conclusions focused on the ultimate objective of this sacred space, in addition to providing a range of assumptions about the importance of the Osirian rite associated with the sovereign, and its implications.

Full textIn this dissertation, we try to compare the funerary practices of the Nabataeans with those of their neighbours in ancient North Arabia, such as the Jews, the Palmyrenes as well as nomadic tribes living on the desert fringes. The area under Nabataean influence which is included in this study is the Ḥawrān, the Ḥijāz, , the Negev and Sinai. The aim is a synthesis based on archaeological data, both new and old, as well as literary and epigraphic sources. The first part of volume 1 is a typological study of Nabataean funerary monuments. It is followed by a study of the development of the necropoles followed in turn by a study of the spatial organisation of the areas devoted to funerary, domestic and religious monuments. The second part of the first volume offers a synthesis on Nabataean funerary practices as well as an essay on Nabataean society. Volumes 2 and 3 contain respectively the catalogue of the all recorded Nabataean tombs and the plates

Full textThe insular Celtic civilization was characterized by a strong pagan substratum. The sacred was embodied in everything and could be observed in the landscape, whether natural or man-made. Since the Neolithic, stones were used to honor divinities and this practice continued for many millennia. Thanks to vernacular textual sources, it is possible to identify many uses of the lithic element, since it was associated with astronomy as well as with burial practices. However, it was not reserved to a specific group and kings, warriors, druids or clerics could all have access to it. With the arrival of the emissaries of the new Christian faith between the 5th and the 6th centuries, local rites and practices were disrupted. Although the Celtic people submitted to the precepts of the one God, they still succeeded in preserving fragments of their heritage that survived through their mythology as recorded by medieval scribes. This study is an attempt at a foray into an obscure period where history and legend merge

Full textThe aim of this dissertation is to represent as clearly as possible the genre of Viking-Age runic plates by developing readings and interpretations of the inscriptions on the 46 metal plates with runes from the Viking Age known today. Several investigations of the runic plates have been conducted with a stereomicroscope for this purpose. On the basis of the new readings thus established, new interpretations have been proposed for the most problematic sections of previously interpreted inscriptions. New interpretations are also offered for inscriptions on runic plates which have previously been considered non-lexical. As well as providing new readings and interpretations, this study has resulted in clarification of the relationship between the form and content of the inscriptions on the runic plates on the one hand and on their find circumstances and appearance on the other.

Wang Xizhi (303 - 361), was China’s first calligrapher who systematically collected and sorted out the long-term evolution of Chinese calligraphy in an artistic way. Wang Xizhi’s calligraphy hit a record high in the history of Chinese calligraphy, and moreover, his magnum opus-Orchid Pavilion Preface was honored as the best semi-cursive script ever in the whole world. Since Master Wang Xizhi’s authentic works have gradually fallen out of favor, the selected works of Wang Xizhi’s semi-cursive script monumental inscriptions of more contents and better entirety will become a channel for calligraphy learner to learn about and understand Wang Xizhi’s semi-cursive scripts. This thesis is divided into 6 chapters. The first chapter is about introduction, the last chapter is about conclusion and the key points of the middle 4 chapters are as follows: Chapter 2 is to discuss the effect of Emperor Taizong of Tang (599 - 649) firstly introducing the semi-cursive script on this tombstone, summarize semi-cursive script monumental inscription’s popularity in Tang Dynasty and introduce the life story and calligraphy works of a Tang Dynasty’s famous semi-cursive script calligrapher - Li Yong. Chapter 3 is to discuss the time, collectors, carvers and contents of the three existing monumental inscriptions of Wang Xizhi’s semi-cursive scripts collected by some people of Tang Dynasty: Calligraphy Collection of Shengjiaoxu, Xingfu Temple’s Broken Monument and Calligraphy Collection of Diamond Sutra. Meanwhile, Mr. Huairen’s collecting methods and solutions of problems as well as comments from calligraphers of different generations on Wang Xizhi’s semi-cursive scripts are also discussed in this chapter. Chapter 4 is to analyze the style, structure and brushwork of Wang Xizhi’s calligraphy in Calligraphy Collection of Shengjiaoxu and compare the similarities and differences on these three aspects. Chapter 5 is to discuss Wang Xizhi’s most representative calligraphy of monumental inscriptions impact on the society that time, later generations and overseas cultures.
