L’epigrafia greca tra scienza ed esperienza: il ruolo di Berlino

A Berlino nel 1815 l’epigrafia greca entra ufficialmente a far parte delle scienze dell’antichità con l’inaugurazione di un Thesaurus di tutte le iscrizioni greche allora note sotto la direzione del filologo August Boeckh.

L’archivio delle Inscriptiones Graecae (Berlino)

Le Inscriptiones Graecae (IG) sono un’impresa scientifica della Berlin-Brandenburgische Akademie der Wissenschaften (cosí denominata dopo la riunificazione, dal 1 Agosto 1992), che si occupa della raccolta e edizione critica di iscrizioni greche nelle aree dell’antica Grecia, isole del Mar Egeo e Magna Grecia. Le IG sono il piú antico progetto scientifico dell’Accademia, precedentemente denominata Königlich-Preussische Akademie der Wissenschaften (1700-1945), successivamente Deutsche Akademie..

Homerverse auf einem Tonziegel aus der Umgebung von Olympia

Ein im Jahre 2018 in der römischen Nekropole von Frangonissi östlich von Olympia gefundener Tonziegel enthält die ersten 13 Verse aus dem 14. Gesang der Odyssee mit der Begegnung von Odysseus und dem treuen Hirten Eumaios. Der Ziegel stammt aus der Zeit zwischen Mitte 2./Anfang 3. Jh. n. Chr. Im Beitrag werden Fundkontext und Ergebnisse der Nachgrabung 2019/2020 beschrieben. Im Hauptteil wird die Inschrift kritisch ediert, der Beitrag ihrer lexikalischen und orthographischen Varianten zur Überlieferung des Homertextes bestimmt und die bisher bekannten epigraphischen Homerzeugnisse untersucht. Schließlich werden Vermutungen angestellt über den Auftraggeber (war er ein Lehrer oder Schüler, ein Rhapsode oder Homeristes?) und über seine Intentionen bei der Auswahl gerade dieser Verse.A clay brick found in the Roman necropolis of Frangonissi east of Olympia in 2018 contains the first 13 verses from Book 14 of the Odyssey, with the meeting of Odysseus and the faithful swineherd Eumaios. The brick dates from between the mid 2nd and the beginning of the 3rd cent. A.D. The article describes the find context and the results of the follow-up excavation in 2019/2020. In the main section the inscription is critically edited, the contribution of its lexical and orthographic variants to the tradition of the Homer text is appraised, and the Homeric epigraphic record known to date is examined. Finally the authors speculate about who commissioned it (a teacher or pupil, a rhapsode or Homeristes?) and what that person’s intentions were in selecting these verses

Hyperbaric exposure and oxidative Stress in occupational activities (HEOxS): the study protocol

Background: Hyperbaric exposure (HE) is proven to be a stressor to several mechanisms in living cells. Even if after homeostasis restoration, harmful effects are expected, in particular a presence of free radicals. These latter are the stimulus to negative phenomenon as inflammation or cancer. In Italy, with 7500 km of sea shores, a large quantity of workers is exposed to HE during occupational activities. A deep knowledge of HE and bodily effects is not well defined; hence a multidisciplinary assessment of risk is needed. To detect one or more indicators of HE a research group is organised, under the INAIL sponsorship. The research project focused on the oxidative stress (OxS) and this paper details on the possible protocol to estimate, with a large amount of techniques on several human liquids, the relationship between OxS and HE. Specific attention will be paid to identify confounding factors and their influence. Methods: Blood and urine will be sampled. Several lab techniques will be performed on samples, both targeted, to measure the level of well-known biomarkers, and untargeted. Regard the formers: products of oxidation of DNA and RNA in urine; inflammation and temperature cytokines and protein carbonyles in blood. Untargeted evaluation will be performed for a metabolomics analysis in urine. Confounding factors: temperature, body fat, fitness, allergies and dietary habits. These factors will be assessed, directly or indirectly, prior and after HE. The final scope of the project is to determine one or more indicators that relates to HE in hits twofold nature: depth and duration. Conclusion: The relationship between OxS and HE is not deeply investigated and literature proposes diverging results. The project aims to define the time dependence of biomarkers related to OxS, to rise knowledge in risk assessment in workers exposed to HE

Un concours de drames « anciens » à Athènes

From a detailed study of an epigraphic list of theatre victors dated to the first half of the third century B. C., in which ‘ old’ dramas are recorded in contest, I formulate the hypothesis that a new contest of ‘ old’ dramas in Athens was instituted in the third century and more precisely at the date 279/ 8. My hypothesis, based on several documentary sources, is that this contest was instituted within the framework of the contests at the Great Dionysia after the victory of the Greeks over the Galatians in 279/ 8, a victory much celebrated by all those who had taken part in it, with honorary decrees, dedications, statues, new festivals and contests.À partir de l’étude détaillée d’une liste épigraphique de vainqueurs de théâtre datée de la première moitié du IIIe siècle, où se trouvent enregistrés des drames anciens en concours, je formule une hypothèse sur l’institution d’un nouveau concours de drames anciens à Athènes au IIIe s. av. J.-C., et plus précisément à la date de 279/ 8. Mon hypothèse, en se fondant sur plusieurs sources documentaires, est que ce nouveau concours fut institué dans le cadre agonal des Grandes Dionysies d’Athènes après la victoire des Grecs sur les Galates en 279/ 8, victoire très célébrée par tous ceux qui y avaient participé, avec décrets honorifiques, dédicaces, statues, nouvelles fêtes et concours.Summa Daniela.

Reaction behavior of indium(III)-tert-butoxides towards transition metal chlorides and [Na(OtBu)3Sn]2

Unter den heterometallischen Indium-tert-Butoxiden sind bisher nur Vertreter mit den Metallen Zinn, Germanium, Nickel und Lithium bekannt. Auch von den sogenannten "Janus-Köpfen" In(OtBu)3M (M = Sn, Ge) gibt es nur wenige Vertreter, die durch Übergangsmetallcarbonyle am Indiumatom und/oder am Zinnatom stabilisiert sind. Ziel dieser Arbeit war die Darstellung heterometallischer Indium(III)-tert-Butoxide mit den Metallen Titan, Vanadium, Chrom, Mangan, Kobalt, Kupfer und Gold. Syntheseversuche wurden mit dem Prinzip der Salzmetathese durchgeführt unter Verwendung von KIn(OtBu)4 6 und Übergangsmetallchloriden in entsprechenden molaren Verhältnissen. Hierbei wurden die neuen tert-Butoxide [In(OtBu)2]4(C5H4)2 8, Cu[In(OtBu)4]*2py 14 und [CuIn(OtBu]4]2 15 erhalten. Bei den Umsetzungen mit VCl2 2, VCl3(THF)3 10, CrCl2 11, CrCl3(THF)3 12, MnCl2 20, (Ph3P)3CoCl 21, CoCl2 22, Ph3P-AuCl 25, AuCl(THT) 27, AuCl3 28 und AuCl3*py 29 konnte zwar eine Reaktion mit KIn(OtBu)4 6 beobachtet werden, aber kein zur Strukturanalyse geeignetes Produkt erhalten werden. Dagegen lieferte die Umsetzung von CoCl2 22 mit KIn(OtBu)4 6 im Molverhältnis 1:2 die Verbindung "[CoIn(OtBu)5]2\u27; 23, welche teilweise charakterisiert werden konnte. Des Weiteren sollte untersucht werden, ob die Substitution weiterer Chloratome in THF*Cl2In(OtBu)3Sn 30 mit Hilfe von [Na(OtBu)3Sn]2 31 möglich ist. Durch Umsetzung von 30 mit 31 im Molverhältnis 1:1 entstand der Oxo-Cluster ClInO[Sn(OtBu)2]3 32, im Molverhältnis 2:1 das tert-Butoxid Sn(OtBu)3InCl3Na[Sn(OtBu)2]2 33.Until now, among heterometallic indium-tert-butoxides only representatives with the metals tin, germanium, nickel and lithium are known. There are also some so called "Janus head\u27; molecules In(OtBu)3M (M = Sn, Ge) which are stabilized by transition metal carbonyls at the indium or tin site. One aim of this work was the preparation of heterometallic indium(III)-tert-butoxides with the hetero metals titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, cobalt, copper and gold. The syntheses were attempted via the principle of a salt metathesis by use of KIn(OtBu)4 6 and transition metal chlorides in adequate molar proportions. During these attempts the new tert-butoxides [In(OtBu)2]4(C5H4)2 8, Cu[In(OtBu)4]*2py 14 and [CuIn(OtBu]4]2 15 were synthesized. In the reactions of KIn(OtBu)4 6 with VCl2 2, VCl3(THF)3 10, CrCl2 11, CrCl3(THF)3 12, MnCl2 20, (Ph3P)3CoCl 21, CoCl2 22, Ph3P-AuCl 25, AuCl(THT) 27, AuCl3 28 and AuCl3*py 29 it wasn\u27;t possible to get products which could structurally be investigated. Only in the reaction of CoCl2 22 with KIn(OtBu)4 6 in the molar proportion 1:2 a partial structure of "[CoIn(OtBu)5]2\u27; 23 could be received. Furthermore it was of interest if the substitution of another chlorine atom in THF*Cl2In(OtBu)3Sn 30 with [Na(OtBu)3Sn]2 31 is possible. By reaction of 30 with 31 in the molar proportion 1:1 the oxo-cluster ClInO[Sn(OtBu)2]3 32 was obtained, with the molar proportion 2:1 the tert-butoxide Sn(OtBu)3InCl3Na[Sn(OtBu)2]2 33 was synthesized
