Abstract

Doelstelling: Deze scriptie maakt deel uit van het Farma-project. Het doel is om Nederlandse vertalers en/of personen uit de medische of farmaceutische wereld te voorzien van een Nederlandse vertaling van een kritisch beargumenteerde Engelstalige farmaceutische termen. Bij deze scriptie wordt er uitgegaan van vijftien termen uit het Engelstalige glossarium van de Boston University School of Medicine (Bumc glossary). Naast het zoeken van een Nederlandse vertaling voor de term, wordt er ook nog bijkomende info over de term opgezocht, zoals definitie, synoniemen, verwante termen, contexten, etc. Middelen of methode: Bij het onderzoek wordt zowel van primaire als van secundaire bronnen gebruikt gemaakt. De resultaten worden enerzijds ingevoerd in een terminografische fiche, gebaseerd op de GenTerm-methode. Anderzijds worden de termen uitvoerig besproken in het deel 'discussion per concept'. Resultaten: De resultaten worden per concept besproken in het eerste deel van de scriptie, waarin ook een inleiding en een conclusie zijn vervat. De resultaten worden ingevoerd in de terminografische fiches, beschikbaar in het tweede deel van de scriptie. Dit tweede deel bevat ook een Nederlands- Engels lexicon en een Nederlands- Engels lexicon. De termenfiches worden naderhand opgenomen in GentTerm, de termenbank van het Departement Vertaalkunde van de Hogeschool Gent.

Abstract

Now published by Academic Press and revised from the author's previous Five Kingdoms 3rd edition, this extraordinary, all inclusive catalogue of the world's living organisms describes the diversity of the major groups, or phyla, of nature's most inclusive taxa. Developed after consultation with specialists, this modern classification scheme is consistent both with the fossil record and with recent molecular, morphological and metabolic data. Generously illustrated, now in full color, Kingdoms and Domains is remarkably easy to read. It accesses the full range of life forms that still inhabi

Abstract

This book provides the first full edition and commentary of the Oxyrhynchus Glossary (POxy 1802 and 4812). This is a unique document both for the history of Greek lexicography and for the study of the cultural and linguistic exchange between the Greeks and the "others" in the Hellenistic near East. The fragment contains a fully alphabetized glossary with lemmas defined as "Persian," "Babylonian," and "Chaldaean", as well as lemmas taken from Greek dialects or common Greek. The entries are rich in "ations from ancient authorities including Berossus, Apollodorus and Erasistratus. This glossary had never been analyzed in depth previously. Francesca Schironi provides a comprehensive introduction and commentary that places the Oxyrhynchus Glossary into the wider context of Greek lexicography and scholarship, discusses its interest for non-Greek languages and the problems related to linguistic exchanges in the Near Eastern areas, and shows the uniqueness and value of this document. The Oxyrhynchus glossary and this study will be of interest to classicists, papyrologists, comparative philologists, and scholars interested in the history of Greek lexicography and scholarship.

Abstract

The book is concerned with the question of how the concept of 'god' in urban Rome can be analyzed along the lines of six constituent concepts, id est space, time, personnel, function, iconography and ritual. While older publications tended to focus on the conceptual nature of Roman gods only in those (comparatively rare) instances in which different concepts patently overlapped (as in the case of the deified emperor or hero-worship), this book develops general criteria for an analysis of pagan, Jewish and Christian concepts of gods in ancient Rome (and by extension elsewhere). While the argument of the book is exclusively based on the evidence from the capital up to the age of Constantine, in the concluding section the results are compared to other religious belief systems, thus demonstrating the general applicability of this conceptual approach.
