Abstract:
The focus of this article is the pyramid belonging to king Unis, last king of the 5th Dynasty. The striking feature of this pyramid is its ornate internal decoration with spells/utterances from the Pyramid Texts, and with the palace façade motif around the king's sarcophagus. The Pyramid Texts, one of the oldest examples of religious literature in the world, appear here for the first time. To date, research has generally focused on the language and content of the Pyramid Texts. This article looks beyond the subject matter of the Pyramid Texts to explore how these early hieroglyphic writings had additional integral symbolism embedded in their parietal format. Using a novel perspective that seeks symbolic connections across textual and non-textual elements, I argue that the Pyramid Texts and the palace façade motif, through their architectural format, represent the boundaries of the cosmos, which is itself the main theme in the Pyramid Texts.

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to contribute to the discussion of the relationship between manuscript and epigraphic traditions in premodern cultures by addressing aspects of the monumentality of writing in the context of Ancient Egyptian tombs near the end of the third millennium BC (the late Old Kingdom). Ritual texts inscribed on the walls of subterranean chambers of kings' and queens' pyramids at Saqqara are known as 'The Pyramid Texts', the earliest known mortuary corpus of any civilization. The texts, which are inscribed in hieroglyphs, are carved, decorated, and painted in green. They are laid out in columns and cover surfaces up to three metres high in the main chambers and in the passages leading to the entrances of the pyramids. While the texts were performed during rituals and recorded in writing in contexts that are now lost, the carved hieroglyphic forms in the pyramids make it possible to glimpse the extent of manuscript culture and scribal practices of this period. The process of inscription involved not only reconfiguration from manuscript to wall, but also reinterpretation of the texts in terms of the spatial, architectural, and symbolical context of the tomb. This paper investigates the idea of monumentality in relation to the way these texts were reconfigured in the pyramids.

Abstract:
“‘Wordplays’ and ritual acts. About relationship between Pyramid Texts, Offering lists and tombs’ iconography” - Whatever the name they bear, the so-called “Wordplays” in Pyramid Texts (PT) have been commented and interpreted as epigraphic peculiarities with literary and ritual significance. In fact, their performativity is indubitable, as is their relationship with Offering lists that first appear in private tombs. But the depth of this puns – mostly phonetic – has not been enough underlined, their phonological analysis being usually superficial. Moreover, if the connection between PT and private iconography is sometimes noticed, a systematic study of the royal formulas can shed new lights on their relation with the depicted rites. This paper aims at expose the variety of phonetic and semantic wordplays attested in the offering formulas of the PT, chapters that take the items of traditional offering lists and tables. Then I will submit new hypotheses about their link with the iconography that usually accompany these lists. Keywords: Pyramids Texts; Iconography; Offering lists; Funerary rituals; Wordplays; Phonology

Abstract:
The minor step pyramids (MSPs) form a coherent group of seven monuments distributed along Egyptian geography with a series of common characteristics that make them unique and distinct from other buildings of similar typology. The purpose of these pyramids is a matter of dispute among Egyptologists and most proposals could be interpreted as sad examples of vox nihil. By contrast, our archaeoastronomical study of the monuments would suggest that minor step pyramids were built at certain locations and with particular orientations that might relate them to the preliminary stages and consolidation, during the reign of king Snefru, of two master creations of early dynastic Egypt, the civil calendar and the stellar Afterlife later appearing in the Pyramid Texts.

Abstract:
The Pyramid Texts created in Ancient Egypt and contextualised by the belief in life beyond death, were intended to accompany the deceased in their journey to the Hereafter, to protect and ensure the realisation of their needs there. The oldest religious texts demonstrate positive aspects, delight and lust for life and, due to the fact that they were composed in order to assist the pharaoh on his way to the sky and the true existence of the king in the Beyond, could never be questioned or endangered. However, despite everything evoked here, there are attestations of inimical forces, or perils, which are to be fought off. Emphasis will be placed on the question of how the “serpent spells” and use of language in them manifest the relationship of the pharaoh and the Egyptians with the inhabitants of the Near East. The ideas of the presumed origin of the formulae and the link with the creator Atum in the texts under discussion is also presented. One can trace the quiddity of the world as a complete work of the ancient Egyptian creator. Therefore, the author of the paper aims to scrutinise, with reference to contextual arguments, the language of the diagnostic “serpent spells” of the Pyramid Texts, namely the grammar, choice of vocabulary, phraseology, possible onomatopoeic effects, to elucidate linguistic means of expression used in the Pyramid Texts. The methodology of the linguistic worldview is used.

Abstract:
Many studies of structure in present-day Western news texts have shown that the dominant structure is the inverted pyramid, even if the use of a chronological narrative structure is acknowledged. However, the relevant literature has exclusively investigated Western news texts. In this study, we challenge the dominance of the inverted news structure by including a non-Western and less-investigated culture and ask whether textual structure of news texts can differ between cultural contexts. In total, 100 crime news texts from national Iranian and Dutch newspapers were analyzed for both the overall text and the journalists’ statements. Those texts that showed a hybrid structure (combining inverted pyramid and chronology) were subsequently studied qualitatively to understand how chronology is applied in them. News texts from the two cultures were significantly different in their structure. Qualitative analysis of the journalistic statements uncovered a quotation-based structure, a way of news writing in Iranian journalistic statements in which the journalist mainly narrates reporting eventualities that are new to Western eyes. The study offers implications for further ethnography of news and communication, suggesting that the role, pattern and effects of (journalistic) communication can be culture-specific.

Abstract:
The Pyramid Texts portray a detailed, specific, and vivid scene of akhification (spiritual rebirth), including the positions, shapes, depths, colors, temperatures, inundation events, vegetation, and salinity of the bodies of water as well as the human activities of religion, irrigation, farming, and ferry around the Akhet. This paper reveals that this scene was an actual environment in the Atlas Basin right before the end of the green Sahara. All the above details exactly describe the characteristics of the two terminal megalakes of the basin, based on the water cycle of the green Sahara. The Akhet located at the outlet of the canal connecting these two lakes was a continuation of Atlantis. Most importantly, the Pyramid Texts tell us that, with advanced hydraulic and agricultural technologies, Atlanteans unknowingly triggered the water cycle collapse in the Atlas Basin and inflicted a breach to the green Sahara.

Abstract:
Analysing early pieces of evidence for a phenomenon has always been a problematic task and it can be more difficult when dealing with a religious topic. Anachronistic approaches have often been projected in this kind of research, which brings inaccurate interpretations and findings. This paper concentrates on early testimonies for the ancient Egyptian god Kheprer, the deity of the morning sun and autogenesis. It discusses some previously suggested Predynastic, Early Dynastic, and Old Kingdom sources (such as finds of beetles in vessels, the so-called Libyan Palette, Giza writing board, figures of beetles, personal names and titles, Pyramid Texts) that can refer to the existence and belief in this deity. This study focuses mainly on the problematic issues in the interpretations of those finds, demonstrating thus that the only secure evidence for Kheprer comes from the Pyramid Texts.

Abstract:
This paper discusses the so-called ornamental use of texts on the late Middle Kingdom coffins belonging to Nakht-ankh and Khnum-nakht, the famous “Two Brothers”. The texts include heavily shortened versions of Pyramid- and Coffin Texts spells that the copyists apparently did not attempt to include in their entirety. Yet they can be seen to have made a number of conscious editorial decisions and selected the texts from a small closed set of spells, suggesting that their intent was not merely decorative. It is argued that the ornamental use of funerary texts represents a local religious tradition where the excerpts served as tokens and magical substitutes for the larger compositions from which they derive.

This paper aims to research the use of figurative expressions concerning the death of the king in the Pyramid Texts, biographic texts and literary texts. The death of a king was always a taboo subject and was usually expressed in euphemistic forms. The term “ascent to heaven” is the most important expression for describing the demise of the king. This term is expressed through the use of figurative language,which can come from the natural, animal and divine worlds. Examples and references of figurative expressions concerning the death of the king will be listed and discussed.

Abstract:
This research explores translation and interpreting quality assessment standards (TIQA), selecting those fit for the purpose of specialized translation quality assurance, with the aim to systematize them into a step-by-step framework, referred to as “the TIQA pyramid”, a framework that provides valid and reproducible benchmarks that are endowed with universal features and reflected in codes of ethics and professional standards. The TIQA standards may be subdivided into two major groups: text-oriented and ethical-deontological ones. Such classification is based on the notion of translation quality which is the projection of a translator (interpreter)’s personality (inchoate quality assurance arising out of a system of ethical and deontological precepts), or of textual requirements (choate quality assurance arising out of a system of text-oriented criteria). The “pas-de-trois” in a translated interaction among the commissioner of a specialized translation, its performer and end-user is grounded in the presumably existing mediated communication contract (typically a translation brief). Its positive upshot is manifested in the confidence-imbued multi-party polypragmatic interlingual and intercultural behaviour; the negative, however, is underscored by its implicit nature which leads to the absence of a concerted system of quality criteria, resulting in a lack of satisfaction and mutual trust.

Abstract:
Generating photo-realistic images conditioned on semantic text descriptions is a challenging task in computer vision field. Due to the nature of hierarchical representations learned in CNN, it is intuitive to utilize richer convolutional features to improve text-to-image synthesis. In this paper, we propose Perceptual Pyramid Adversarial Network (PPAN) to directly synthesize multi-scale images conditioned on texts in an adversarial way. Specifically, we design one pyramid generator and three independent discriminators to synthesize and regularize multi-scale photo-realistic images in one feed-forward process. At each pyramid level, our method takes coarse-resolution features as input, synthesizes highresolution images, and uses convolutions for up-sampling to finer level. Furthermore, the generator adopts the perceptual loss to enforce semantic similarity between the synthesized image and the ground truth, while a multi-purpose discriminator encourages semantic consistency, image fidelity and class invariance. Experimental results show that our PPAN sets new records for text-to-image synthesis on two benchmark datasets: CUB (i.e., 4.38 Inception Score and .290 Visual-semantic Similarity) and Oxford-102 (i.e., 3.52 Inception Score and .297 Visual-semantic Similarity).

Full text
Abstract:
Chaining is a linguistic mechanism that is concerned with the construction of texts, their textuality and their network of semantic relations. It is concerned with the practical investigation of the constituent units of a given text of any length. This means that we can carry out an in-depth textual analysis of the text at the level of all units of language – morpheme, word, sentence and paragraph levels. Chaining is also concerned with textual progression and processing. When projected onto Qur' anic discourse, chaining produces the Qur'anic text in an upside-down pyramid shape. Thus, there is more reason for the longest suras to be placed at the beginning and the shortest ones at the end. Looking at the upside-down pyramid text, we can appreciate why the Qur'anic message is concluded by monotheism (Q. 112) and divinity (Q. 114), while the wider top surface of the pyramid is the textual environment for lordship (Q. 1) and Islamic legal rulings (Q. 2, Q. 4, etc.), with numerous intervening leitmotifs that are conceptually and intertextually interrelated. Conceptual and intertextual chaining makes the text more accessible to the reader: it is not necessarily characterised by superfluous repetition, but rather is linguistically marked by a high degree of informativity.

Abstract:
Summary The notion of Duat plays a major role in ancient Egyptian funerary beliefs. Yet, a single definition of this notion is impossible to achieve, as it underwent a process of evolution over thousands of years without ever designating just one unambiguous place at a time. In this context, an approach based on cognitive linguistics and on the significance of the determinatives accompanying the word Duat can be exploited to shed more light on this elusive concept. The focus will be here on the Pyramid Texts and the Coffin Texts as well as the intermediary phase of transmission of the funerary literature during the period between the end of the Old Kingdom and the beginning of the Middle Kingdom.

Full text
Abstract:
The emergence of ancient Egyptian mortuary literature in the third millennium bce is the history of the adaptation of recitational materials to the materiality of different media. Upon a gradual development, the transformation of the oral discourse into writing began with the use of papyri for transcribing the guidelines of ritual performances as aide-mémoire, and culminated with the concealment of sacerdotal voices and deeds into the sealed-off crypt of king Wenis (ca. 2345 bce). The process of committing ritual and magical recitations into scriptio continua in the Pyramid Texts was subject to several stages of adaptation, detachability, and recentering. Investigating how the corpus emerged through the combination of recitations from different settings elucidates the transformation of oral written discourse into literary style, the traces of poetic and speech elements in the corpus, and its flexibility to disseminate and adapt to different mortuary practices, beliefs and contexts in the second millennia bce and beyond.

Abstract:
In archaeological and textual evidence alike, the psš-kf-knife consistently occurs as part of the same collection of objects. In the Pyramid Texts, these objects are presented in a sequence that is the earliest attested form of the ‘opening of the mouth’ ceremony. The speeches accompanying the presentations suggest that the psš-kf and the objects associated with it were the equipment for a ritual mimicking birth and childhood, and that the role of the psš-kf in this process was to cut the umbilical cord of a newborn baby. Further archaeological, textual, and iconographic evidence is adduced to support this interpretation.

Abstract:
This paper presents a conceptual framework for the optimization of environmental sustainability in engineering projects, both for products and industrial facilities or processes. The main objective of this work is to propose a conceptual framework to help researchers to approach optimization under the criteria of sustainability of engineering projects, making use of current Machine Learning techniques. For the development of this conceptual framework, a bibliographic search has been carried out on the Web of Science. From the selected documents and through a hermeneutic procedure the texts have been analyzed and the conceptual framework has been carried out. A graphic representation pyramid shape is shown to clearly define the variables of the proposed conceptual framework and their relationships. The conceptual framework consists of 5 dimensions; its acronym is ADAPTS. In the base are: (1) the Application to which it is intended, (2) the available DAta, (3) the APproach under which it is operated, and (4) the machine learning Tool used. At the top of the pyramid, (5) the necessary Sensing. A study case is proposed to show its applicability. This work is part of a broader line of research, in terms of optimization under sustainability criteria.

Abstract:
This word study sets out to exemplify the aims and methods of a comparative linguistic approach to the prehistory of the Arabic language conducted against an Afroasiatic backdrop. Drawing on the lexical corpus of the modern Arabic vernaculars, it explores phonological and semantic correlations linking Old Egyptian ḫwj ‘to protect’ attested in the Pyramid texts from the 3rd millennium BC to its proposed Arabic cognates in modern Bedouin vernaculars. The database and commentary adduced in this essay proffer further support for the scenario presented in Borg (2019) arguing for symbiotic interaction between Ancient Egyptian and the Old Arabic phenotype that yielded the modern dialects of this Semitic world language.

Abstract:
In JEA 71 (1985), M. Lehner and P. Lacovara sought to explain the ‘enigmatic wooden object’ found on the south side of Cheops' pyramid in 1960 as a frame for the transport of a tomb statue. It is here suggested that the object is actually a cage for a prisoner, which was used in a ritual for the destruction of the enemy. In support of this are cited a relief block from Karnak depicting just such a cage, and the Ritual for the Destruction of the Enemy (P. BM 10081), as well as the so-called Execration Texts and captive statues of the Old Kingdom.

Abstract:
The research deals with applying to innovative approaches to literary text. Inclusive books for children and ways of working with them at pedagogical faculties are considered. In our research, we will demonstrate the work with such books “Cripple Bunny and his brave mother” by Oksana Drachkovskaya, “Trustees for the Giraffe” by Oksana Luschevska and Yevhenia Haydamaka, “Just because” by Rebecca Elliott, “Magda and her Wind” by Iryna Morykvas, “Planet Willi” by Birta Müller, “Yes! I can!: The girl and her Wheelchair” KendryJ. Barrett, Jacqueline BiuToner, Kler A. Friland, Violet Limey and the trilogy on Pearl of Tuuli Pere. The main heroes of these books are children with disabilities and special educational needs. Narrators mostly are their elder or younger brothers or sisters. The reason of the choosing children’s literature on inclusion is that it is modern important literature, which demonstrates the world of children with disability and highlights such serious topics as decease and death. Its aim is to show that variety makes world wonderful and grate. The introduction of holographic design of vita technologies (calligarm, creative games, the pyramid of hero and author) is considered as well, the application of methods of critical thinking (mind-mapping, swot-analysis, six hats, Bloom’s taxonomy) in the analysis of fiction is substantiated. Potential online resources helping work with literature are examined. In addition, the possibilities of online resources (rebus, comics’ generator, the creating of mind maps, crosswords on different platforms) are determined as important part of the work with text. It has proved that such innovate approaches help to develop creative potential of students, allows analyzing literary text in a new way. Such approaches will be helpful in professional activity of teachers in primary school.

Abstract:
The author of the paper aims at scrutinising the linguistic image of the Egyptian pharaoh in the so-called Pyramid Texts. Was the Egyptian ruler perceived as a human representative of the god on Earth or rather was he a or the god himself? Special emphasis will be put on names and epithets of the King when described or referred to in religious texts of the Old Kingdom. This study is planned as a part of a future research project on picturing the pharaoh through language in religious and royal texts from the beginning of the Old Kingdom till the end of the New Kingdom, and realised in cooperation with Dr. Andrzej Ćwiek and Jadwiga Iwaszczuk.Furthermore, the paper is also a presentation of use of ethnolinguistic methods in Egyptology. Using scholarly methods of the ‘linguistic worldview’ research project in which the present author participates, it is intended to study selected ancient Egyptian concepts. Although language analysis as well as widely understood and studied ‘life context’ of ancient religious notions let us only a textual and linguistic reconstruction of the world presented, concurrently, helps us understand better the Egyptian religious way of description and thinking.

The objective is to contextualize the book O segredo da pirâmide: para uma teoria marxista do jornalismo [The secret of the pyramid: for a Marxist theory of journalism], by the Brazilian theoretician Adelmo Genro Filho, facing the questions of Brazilian journalism in the 1980s. As an analysis device, we performed a detailed reading of four texts edited in August 5, 1984, in the section “Folhetim”, of the newspaper Folha de S. Paulo, and of the first seven paragraphs of the book. Among the main themes presented are the need for specific training for the profession, the role and shortcomings of communication schools for the training of journalists, the division of value and power within newsrooms, and thwe lack of dialogue theories with practice of journalists.

Abstract:
The article examines the main types of ancient Egyptian festivals of the Middle Kingdom, analyzing the paintings from the tombs of Beni Hasan that belonged to Khnumhotep II, Amenemhat II, Baket III and Kheti. The principles of describing festive rituals in the texts are traced and their significance for the tomb owners is shown. Comparing the tomb scenes of festivals and the lists of feasts, the author reveals a semantic relationship between the mentioned feasts and the subjects represented on the tomb walls: journey to Abydos, hunting in Delta, agricultural works, dancing, games. The voyage to Abydos was a part of the Wag Festival and the Osirian festivals celebrated during the season of Inundation. The author draws attention to the semantic relationship between the scenes of the journey to Abydos and the agricultural works represented near to each other. According to the funerary texts, such works were also carried out before the beginning of the Osirian festivals and designated the god’s death and rebirth. The comparative study of the inscriptions and scenes from the tomb of Khnumhotep II with the Pyramid Texts and the Coffin Texts reveals the semantic parallel between the motif of journey to Abydos and the idea of the rising and setting of the constellation Orion, with which Osiris was associated. The appearance of Orion in the night sky was considered in connection with the idea of the “dying” of the Sun, descending into the Duat that apparently meant the area of invisibility of a celestial body.
