Final Hymn of the Rigveda
The final hymn of the Rigveda, 10.191, the last three stanzas of which are dedicated to saṃjñānam 'unity', plays in a remarkable way with the preposition/prefix sam(-) 'with; together' and the phonetic sequence mā̆n. Some of the words with mā̆n go back to Proto-Indo-European *men 'think' (mánas- 'mind, intellect, thought', mántra- 'utterance, spell', and mantraye 'I utter an utterance, recite a spell'); others are forms of the adjective samāná- '…
Classics
An ostracized humanities professor defends the study of Classics against the “loud voices inside the academy” that have “been calling for burning down the field.”
Μῆνιν ἄειδε, θεά and the Form of the Homeric Word for ‘Goddess’
The Prehistory and Analogues of Hesiod’s Poetry
Hesiod’s indebtedness to Near Eastern material is more frequently discussed than the Indo-European background of his poetry. This chapter argues for a holistic understanding of how Indo-European prehistory and Near Eastern analogues contribute together to the formation of Hesiodic language and thought. Concentrating on Theogony 35, ἀλλὰ τίη μοι ταῦτα περὶ δρῦν ἢ περὶ πέτρην;, “But what are these things about a tree or a rock to me?,” I demonstrat…

Homeric Hymn to Hermes 296
Among the many parodic elements in the Homeric Hymn to Hermes is the day-old baby's fart-omen. As is well-known, sneezing was considered prophetic in the ancient world, and the humour of the scene comes from the immediately preceding fart and the fact that Hermes’ bodily emissions are deliberate (σɉυ... øρασσάμευoζ ‘contriving’). Apollo has, in fact, gone in search of his baby brother on the basis of a standard bird-omen (note 2131 ‖ oìωυɂυ and 2…
Testimonia Ritus Italici
ATIN presents a striking example of polysemy in the word testis, which, as is well-known, means both 'witness' and 'testicle.' * No one has ever seriously doubted that the divergence in sense arises from semantic split rather than phonological merger, but the nature of this interesting clash has received little attention in the scholarly literature. That there is virtually no discussion of how to account for it is all the more surprising in view …
