Another Coptic Letter from the Dioscorus Archive in the Collection of the Ghent University Library
This article presents the first edition of P.Ghent Inv. 48, a sixth-century Coptic letter from the collection of the Ghent University Library. The document references taxes and officials related to the tax collection, indicating a fiscal context. After analyzing the palaeography, linguistic features, prosopography, and historical context, the authors explore a possible connection between the text and the Dioscorus archive
A cognitive approach to spelling production in historical sources
The Greek documentary papyri (300 bce – 700 ce ) provide an interesting corpus for linguistic study due to the large amount of linguistic variation. Variation in spelling is traditionally used as evidence for phonological changes in the post‐Classical Greek language. The interchange of graphemes, however, does not only depend on the pronunciation of the corresponding phoneme. In this paper I examine the cognitive processes behind the production o…
A Coptic letter to Dioscorus of Aphrodite from the collection of the Ghent University Library
Edition of Coptic letter from the collection of the Ghent University Library (P. Gand. Inv. 47). The letter is addressed to a certain Dioscorus, most probably Dioscorus of Aphrodite. The fragmentary status of the letter does not allow a full understanding of the text, but the formulary clearly shows a monastic context, in all likelihood the monastery of Apa Apollos founded by Dioscorus’ father in 537 CE. Since the senders address Dioscorus as the…
Post-Classical Greek from a Scribal Perspective
Spelling deviations are often considered to be the result of random variation or plain mistakes by the scribes. Based on the examples in this paper, I argue that some of the apparent deviations may actually be in accordance with contemporary norms. Close study of the spelling of five lexemes in the corpus of documentary papyri shows that the orthographic conventions at the time may have been different than suggested by contemporary grammarians an…
Dative by Genitive Replacement in the Greek Language of the Papyri
Semantic analysis of the prenominal first person singular genitive pronoun (μου) in the Greek of the documentary papyri shows that the pronoun is typically found in the position between a verbal form and an alienable possessum which functions as the patient of the predicate. When the event expressed by the predicate is patient-affecting, the possessor is indirectly also affected. Hence the semantic role of this affected alienable possessor might …
