This paper deals with the ways of categorising landscapes as ‘urban’ and ‘rural’ using a physicalist approach, where these terms have special meaning. The aim of this paper is to elaborate on the question whether such a division is still meaningful with regard to anthropogenic landscapes, not least in spatial planning. The concerns raised in this paper depart from the increasingly complicated stru

The concluding study offers reflections and a synthetic analysis of all the studies in the casebook, presented from the perspective of a "first reader". The pattern of external factors, editorial challenges, methodologies and forms of presentation is discussed. It offers an interpretation of how the body of case studies manifest a wide spectrum of methodologies. The case studies are categorized th

Avhandlingen undersöker betydelsen och funktionen av tårar i romersk politisk kultur under republiken och tidig kejsartid i olika historiska sammanhang, huvudsakligen sorg, tårar och i olika politiska sammanhang där auktoritet, makt och underkastelse utövades eller iscensattes. Detta görs genom studier av hur tårar skildras i olika genrer och författarskap i latinsk och grekisk litteratur. Allmänt

Current visual text analysis approaches rely on sophisticated processing pipelines. Each step of such a pipeline potentially amplifies any uncertainties from the previous step. To ensure the comprehensibility and interoperability of the results, it is of paramount importance to clearly communicate the uncertainty not only of the output but also within the pipeline. In this paper, we characterize t

Ladd What is prosody, anyway? Bob Ladd, University of Edinburgh Widespread use of the term prosody in linguistics dates only from the 1970s. Up until then, the term’s primary meaning concerned rules of poetic metre and other aspects of text-setting and poetic well-formedness. The shift from the poetic sense to the term’s current meaning began in the late 1960s and was more or less complete by abou

This study sets out to gain a better understanding of the workings of ancient polytheism by exploring one of its fundamental modus operandi: the cohabitation of gods in sanctuaries. Cohabitation is broadly understood as the permanent or temporary sharing of sacred precincts, cultic buildings, and sacrificial structures by two or more deities, rendered present through their effigies, or merely pres

The tension between Jews and Gentiles is a well-recorded and pregnant debate within the field of biblical exegesis today. One of the biblical passages that directly relates to this special situation, often labelled the ‘incident of Antioch’, is Gal 2.11-14. In this passage Peter (Cephas), an early disciple of the Jesus movement that regularly ate and drank with the Gentiles, is told to draw back a
