The article describes the long-term editorial project Fraktionen im Deutschen Bundestag. 1949–2005 , an extensive collection of meeting minutes and session protocols from the parliamentary groups of the German Bundestag, which has been gradually published since 1993 in print, online, and as TEI-XML datasets in a public GitHub repository. The article addresses the significance of protocols as key sources for historical research, particularly for examining administrative structures and political decision-making processes, and emphasizes the variety of protocol types (minutes, session records, and verbatim reports), which provide insights into decision-making processes and power dynamics. The article outlines the development, current status, and future challenges of the Fraktionsprotokolle.de project, highlighting the balance between digital and print publication as well as the handling of extensive research data, including the planned ParlaBio biographical database. In an extensive outlook, the article explores experiences with the use of AI models in the editorial process, discussing both opportunities and technical as well as data protection-related challenges.

The article examines the principal English-language studies of the last century focused on exploring the personality of Macrobius (5th century) and his works — Saturnalia (Saturnalia [ed. Willis, 1963]), Commentary on the 'Dream of Scipio' (Commentarii in Somnium Scipionis [ed. Willis, 1963]), and On the differences and similarities of Greek and Latin verbs (De verborum graeci et latini differentiis vel societatibus excerpta [ed. De Paolis, 1990]), written for educational purposes and representing a compen-dium of Greek knowledge. Interest in Macrobius's creative legacy notably intensified towards the end of the 19th century, a trend linked to the release of critical editions of Macrobian texts and their subsequent translations into French. In particular, the study analyzes the research of Thomas Whittaker (Macrobius; or philosophy, science and letters in the year 400; published in 1923), William Harris Stahl (Macrobius, Commentary on the ‘Dream of Scipio’, published in 1952), Alan Cameron (The date and identity of Macro-bius [published in 1966] and Macrobius, Avienus, and Avianus [published in 1967]), Herman De Ley (Macrobius and Numenius. A study of Macrobius, ‘In Somn.’ I, c. 12; published in 1972), Stephen Gersh (Middle platonism and neoplatonism, the Latin tradition; published in 1986), Roger A. Pack (A medieval critic of Macrobius’ cosmometrics; published in 1981), Alison Peden (Science and philosophy in Wales at the time of the Norman con-quest: a Macrobius manuscript from Llabadarn; published in 1981), among others. It highlights the primary issues that researchers have focused on when studying Macrobius's literary legacy, identifies the challenges in ana-lyzing his works, and acknowledges the contribution of English-speaking scholars to the global historiography.

Anushirvan Sasani often has a positive image in the stories narrated in Persian poetry and prose texts and is always described as a symbol of justice. However, in one of the Masnavis left over from the last centuries, Anushirvan is not only not just, but also a lustful king who tries to take possession of a chaste married woman by force and coercion. In this work, the pious woman, despite Anushirvan's many insistences, is not willing to go into his solitude. To the extent that out of necessity and in order to get rid of Anushirvan, she plucks out her own eyes and sends them to her, and it is after this incident that Anushirvan takes the path of regret and repentance; To the extent that out of necessity and rejection of Anushirvan, she takes out her eyes and sends them to him, and after that Anushirvan takes the path of repentance.This short poem is the work of an unknown poet named Khalil Shirazi, the oldest manuscript of which dates back to the middle of the 11th century AH and is preserved in the National Library of Iran. Some researchers believe that this Khalil Shirazi is the same Khalil Zargar Rashti, the court poet of Jamshid Khan Ishaqi in the 10th century and the owner of the missing Jamshidname...

Scholars are slowly trying to re-edit the Shahnama and in this, they sometimes ask for help from pre-Islamic languages ​​and documents. It is natural to find in the Shahnama reflections of the conditions of the Sassanid era and administrative terms common in that period. In this article, an attempt has been made to identify a Sasanian title, which seems not to have been recognized by the editors, by examining some letters from Sasanian kings or addressed to them, recorded in the Shahnama, in which several titles and epithets are repeated in a formulaic form. For this purpose, it has been tried to check the manuscripts of the Shahnama carefully and to show the origin of the title in the Sasanian documents. This title is “Bay rāmšahr”, recorded in the best editions of the Shahnama, especially in Khaleghi’s edition as “padrām-shahr”. At the end of the discussion, an attempt has been made to prove that “mahast”, which is repeated in the same letters next to “bay rāmšahr”, again in a formulaic form, is nothing but a corruption of the term “mazdēsn”. But this corruption is not from Ferdowsi or the scribes of the Shahnama. This happened most probably long before the composition of the Shahnama in the transmission of Sasanian documents to Arabic and Persian script and with the same form found its way to Abu Mansuri’s and Ferdowsi’s Shahnama.

The objectives, subjects, and graduate profiles of postgraduate publishing programmes in the Ibero-American region are examined. The study analysed 16 postgraduate programmes at university institutions in Spain and Ibero-America and interviewed 109 people, including programme coordinators, graduates, and editorial directors. In terms of objectives, the results show that institutions prioritise improving the skills of professionals in the productive and commercial sectors. Publishing houses also offer training programmes to qualify and update the profile of publishers and standardise the publishing processes throughout the value chain. In terms of subjects, there is evidence of a preference for editorial processes through the use of ICT, which to some extent affects their professional performance. The graduate profile emphasises editors who are skilled in editorial processes, followed by administrative editors with ICT skills, entrepreneurs, and experts in editorial design. These findings confirm some of the assumptions of the project. Specifically, the training of editors is mainly focused on the creation of digital products. In addition, master's level training programmes at prioritise commercial needs, and technical training is prevalent in Ibero-America. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Leoš Janáček did not return to composing a string quartet until 1923, almost 45 years after his student composition for this instrumentation. The earlier Piano trio premiered in 1908 has direct relation with Quartet after Tolstoy's "Kreutzer sonata", but Janáček was not convinced of the Trio quality and destroyed it in 1923. However, some moments from the Trio could form the basis of the future quartet. Janáček composed the piece at the initiative of České kvarteto between October and November 1923 and then sent the score to the ensemble. Nonetheless, the first performance was not scheduled until 17 October 1924, when České kvarteto performed the piece at the Mozarteum in Prague. Subsequently, the score and parts were printed in Hudební matice of Umělecká beseda. Josef Suk, the second violinist of České kvarteto, made a significant contribution to the printed form of the composition. The material was published in 1925 and the first foreign performance -- critically acclaimed -- took place the same year at the festival of International Society for Contemporary Music (ISCM) in Venice. This study deals with the complicated genesis of the composition, Suk's changes and the principles of the forthcoming edition. Furthermore, it publishes a complete inventory of sources for the first time and describes them in detailed manner. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purpose of the article is to reveal the problem of editions in the history of “The Tale of Ivan the Fool...” text by L.N. Tolstoy (1885–1886). The objective of the research is the reading, differentiation and analyzis of this work’s manuscripts saved in the the Manuscript Department of the Leo Tolstoy State Museum in Moscow and in the University of Chicago Library (USA). The scientific novelty lies in the fact that for the first time an integrated approach has been applied to the study of the history of the creation of the “Tale of Ivan the Fool...”, combining textual and literary (poetics, historical, literary and biographical contexts) areas of research. The author of the article comes to the conclusion that the early manuscripts did not have editions radically different from the main text, as it is considered to be a scientific tradition. The results of the research prove that the plot parts, the figurative system, visual and expressive means for the integral expression of the genre form of the idea — a social utopia in the kind of folk tale were consistently formed in the draft materials. The article emphasizes that folklore details (stories about the three brothers, about the victory of man over evil spirits) were the allegorical basis for the artistic presentation of the main theses of Tolstoy’s religious, philosophical and publicistic writings in the 1880s. These theses include the idea of non-resistance to evil by violence, criticism of the military strategy of states, the tax system of societies, the idea of enslaving the weak by the strong with the sword and money, glorification of agricultural labor, the antithesis of mental activity and physical labor in the history of mankind.

When Poland regained independence in 1918, the different legal systems of the various partitioning states all remained in force on its territory. Drafts of uniform laws were to be drawn up by the Codification Commission established in 1919. One of its tasks was the preparation of a draft of the family and guardianship law. The sub-commission addressing this division of civil law worked until the outbreak of World War Two. The minutes of its sittings disappeared in September 1939 along with the total output of the Codification Commission. However, copies of minutes of the sittings of the subcommission held in 1939 were found in Kazimierz Przybyłowski's collection of books donated to the Faculty of Law and Administration of University of Silesia in Katowice. These minutes shed new light on the final phase of the codification works. Publication of these documents will enable further detailed research on the history of family law in interwar Poland. The fourth part of the publication consists of minutes nos. 197--201, and includes the reconstruction of articles 1--16, 40--58, and the draft of articles 59--78a as well. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

L’article traite de la question de la revie dans les domaines de la production littéraire et d’autres arts en se fondant en partie sur le cas d’un écrivain français, Gérald Hervé (1928–1998). Cette question, qui recouvre un champ théorico-pratique surgi il y a quelques décennies, est encore embryonnaire. Aussi l’auteur retrace-t-il à grands traits son histoire et ses développements depuis son apparition dans les années 1980. Puis, il en dessine les axes principaux du point de vue définitionnel et méthodologique, illustrant le propos de divers tableaux. Cet article a en outre pour objectif d’attirer l’attention des chercheurs et théoriciens en sciences humaines intéressés par les développements théoriques nécessaires ainsi que par la mise en pratique dans le champ concerné.

This research aim to describe a textological study of the issue of how the Hikayat Si Miskin manuscript text from the Harvad University - Houghton Library/ ms_Indo_18-METS collection was translated into handwritten Arabic-Malay script, the appearance of which is much different from the standard form of the letters of this script. This is the most important part in the textological study of the subfield of philology before the editing of texts from the old Malay Arabic-Malay script into Latin script is presented. His identity as the author is not included at the front of his work, but at the end of the manuscript called the colophon. The presentation of a text that has been cleaned of all writing errors paves the way for further study of the content of the text from various aspects related to the existence of the form and content of the text being studied, such as a study of the structural content of the text, a study of linguistic aspects, a study of social values. and culture, it is even possible to examine historical elements, because manuscripts are historical documents that describe the life systems and patterns of old society. The method used to discuss text issues and content that can be studied in various related scientific disciplines is the standard text criticism method, namely a philological method that attempts to re-present classical texts by criticizing and correcting corrupt texts. In accordance with the focus of the discussion which focuses on writing and visual text writing, the research results found writing irregularities and errors in writing lacunae, substitutions, additions, transpositions, dittography, and haplography. The most common writing errors are substitution errors.

Entre les décennies 1940 et 1980, la structure éditoriale Présence Africaine a occupé, depuis son siège parisien, une place centrale dans les espaces culturels africains et afro-descendants. Elle constitue ainsi un point d’observation privilégié pour saisir l’évolution des rapports de genre qui se sont joués au sein de ces espaces. Si les femmes sont restées très minoritaires au sein de la revue comme de la maison d’édition tout au long de la période, celle-ci fut marquée par une augmentation progressive des publications féminines et une forme d’élargissement des possibles pour les intellectuelles (écrivaines, critiques littéraires, femmes politiques) concernées. Ces dernières forment un groupe hétérogène et leur insertion dans des réseaux intellectuels masculins a pu conditionner leur reconnaissance ou, au contraire, leur éviction. Prêter attention à certaines trajectoires féminines chez Présence Africaine permet enfin d’éclairer leur capacité à agir sur les contenus éditoriaux en dépit d’expériences genrées marquées par la domination masculine.

L’article analyse la façon dont les stéréotypes genrés et les rôles sociaux traditionnels, qui marquent le champ littéraire et éditorial français de la première moitié du xxe siècle, ont pu contribuer à la construction des carrières des deux libraires et éditrices majeures de l’entre-deux-guerres, Adrienne Monnier et Sylvia Beach. Cet examen sert à interroger l’apport des études de genre à la sociologie de la littérature, notamment en matière de l’analyse des trajectoires socioprofessionnelles atypiques.

Uyghurs who migrated to Ganzhou and Turfan regions after 840 established two new khaganates. In this region, in which religious and ethnic diversity is dominant, the Uyghurs have given importance to commercial activities. Thus, they have adopted a settled lifestyle. Linguistic data about the life of the Uyghurs can be found especially in nonreligious Old Uyghur texts, which contain an extensive vocabulary on architectural structures, interior and exterior structural elements, building materials, carrier systems, public spaces, agricultural areas, and irrigation structures. These texts point toward the settled lifestyle of the Uyghurs. In addition, Buddhist pilgrimage centers, important cities, religious buildings, and mystically divine palaces are occasionally mentioned in the Old Uyghur religious texts on Buddhist themes. This article focuses on the edition of seven Old Uyghur fragments related to Buddhism, which have not been previously published. The fragments primarily address topics such as the city, palace, and army. The Berlin Turfan Collection houses the fragments included in this work, which are identified through archival numbers U 2077 (o. F.), U 2301 (T I D), U 2316 (T I D 505; T I D), U 5465 (T I D 622), U 2418 (T II 530), U 2332 (T I D 526; T I D), and U 4868 (T I D 643; T I D). This article encompasses the transcription, transliteration, Turkish translation, explanation, and a glossary/index of these fragments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The report provides information about the publication of the first two volumes of the Complete Works and Letters of Kokhanovskaya (N. S. Sokhanskaya). It tells about the forgotten writer and her return to readers and researchers, made largely thanks to the efforts of O. L. Fetisenko — leading research fellow of the Institute of Russian Literature (Pushkin House) of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The author of the message traces the history of scientists’ appeal to the heritage of Kokhanovskaya, briefly reviewes the content and composition of the two published volumes of the complete works and indicates the immediate plans of the publishers, indicated by them earlier.

AbstractOne of the most important components in editing ancient texts is paying attention to the different forms and readings of words and phrases and studying the semantics of each of these possible forms. In the meanwhile, recognizing the correct recording of Arabic words entered in Persian language requires more care and investigation because these words often get more distorted due to the strangeness of their uses. In addition, some of these words have two or more different meanings in the original language and have this feature in the second language as well. However, the editor's neglect of these multiple meanings and readings can impair the recording and description of words and phrases. The less commonly used word "Ofāt/Afãt" is an example of the same words used in a verse of Sanā’ie's Hadiqat al-Haqiqa, but it has been incorrectly recorded in all contemporary scientific and critical editions. In this research, first, besides criticizing the corrections and explanations of Hadiqat al-Haqiqa, the correct recording of the word and verse was examined and then, a semantic analysis of it was presented by considering the double readings of the word and how it was used in other texts. IntroductionThe first and most basic step in editing ancient Persian texts is to scrutinize the different forms and readings of words and expressions used in the texts. This review requires a detailed semantic knowledge of the lexical system of language. In the meanwhile, recognizing the correct recording of words entered from Arabic language requires more precision and research. Some of these words have different readings in the original language and have consequently found various semantic uses in Persian language. Undoubtedly, the editors’ and researchers’ ignorance of these multiple readings and meanings cause problems in the recording and description of the words and even verses or phrases related to them. In this article, the correct reading and recording of one of these words (Ofāt/Afãt) in a verse of Sanã'ie Ghaznavi's Hadiqat al-Haqiqa was investigated. Materials & MethodsIn this research, by using library sources and taking advantage of intratextual and intertextual evidence and reasons, a verse and a word (Ofāt/Afãt) from Hadiqah al-Haqiqa were corrected and a comprehensive semantic analysis waas presented for them. Also, while examining the use of this word in other texts, such as Mas’ud-e Sa’d's Divãn, the inconsistency of the selected semantic aspects of the authors’ dictionaries and commentators of the text with the way the word was used in the text was criticized. Discussion of Results & ConclusionsIn this research, based on the recording of some authentic and old manuscripts and using textual reasons and evidence, as well as lexical research, we showed that the rarely used word of "Ofāt/Afãt" was used in a verse of Hadiqat al-Haqiqa. However, in Modarres Razavi's edition, the correct form of the word was marginalized and in Yāhaghi and Zarqāni’s editions, the correct recording of old manuscripts was misread and distorted. Most of the commentators of Hadiqa had also chosen and explained the wrong form following the recording of Modarres Razavi and none of them had understood its correct form and various readings and consequently the exact meaning of the verse. Despite keeping the correct form of the word, Abdul Latif Abbãsi had presented a wrong and disproportionate meaning of it. In addition to the above points, another use of this word with a different meaning was mentioned in Mas’ud-e Sa’d's Divãn in this research. In the latter case, the interpreters of the text and the authors of the dictionaries had a wrong understanding of the meaning of the mentioned word. The results of this research once again revealed the scientific fact that neglecting the multiple readings and meanings of words can cause errors by editors and commentators, while providing the correct recording and detailed semantic analysis of one of the entered words.

Having long cultivated the image of a ‘provincial gongorist’, Robert Jammes nevertheless chose to publish the last and definitive edition of Góngora’s Solitudes, in 2017, with Éditions Rue d’Ulm, at the École Normale Supérieure, the institution he had joined in 1947. Our contribution provides some elements for reading this gesture in the light of the tensions with the Parisian university that marked Robert Jammes throughout his life.

This study was conducted with the aim of determining the diagnostic validity of the fifth edition of Wechsler's intelligence scales for children in the neuropsychological characteristics of students with learning disabilities in Tehran. The present study was subset of methodological studies. The number of 400 people with learning disabilities who were selected using a targeted and available sampling method and 400 normal people who were randomly selected from among all male and female students between the ages of 7 and 11 in Tehran in the academic year of 2018-2019. In line with the purpose of the research, the fifth edition of the Wechsler Children's Intelligence Scales (2014) was used. The collected data were analyzed using logistic regression analysis and SPSS software (Version 23). The study finally revealed that vocabulary and information tests (from verbal comprehension index), Block design with time point (from Visualspatial index),arithmetic (from fluid reasoning scale), number span (direct), number span (reverse), picture span, letter-digit sequencing and letter-number sequencing (from working memory scale),and coding, cancellation (random), cancellation (structural), (from Processing speed index), had diagnostic validity. The fifth version of the Wechsler IQ Scales for children has diagnostic validity in the neuropsychological characteristics of students with learning disabilities and can distinguish students with learning disabilities from normal students.

In this brief interview, the French historian Roger Chartier (Lyon, 1945) covers a series of concepts related to three of the major areas to which he has devoted most of his academic work over the last four decades. The first deals with the figure of the author and in it a conceptual arc is authenticated that goes from new technologies applied to literary production and changes in authorial models to a return to the classics. The second axis focuses on the book as a support for texts and is an attempt to cover the different materialities of said object (physical, electronic or audiobook books). The third axis, in this case a single broad question, reflects the relationships between the historiographical and literary sciences, how they intersect, and ways to approach the historicity of texts.

The Pandects, an anthology of passages from the Holy Scripture and the writings of the Church Fathers, was compiled in Medieval Greek in around 620 by Antiochus, a monk of the Laura of Mar Saba, at the request of hegumen Eustachius of the Monastery of Atalina. In the 10th century, this collection was translated into the Church Slavonic language in Bulgaria and soon became known in Kyivan Rus’. No later than in the 1160s, fragments of the Pandects were included in the Synaxarion or the Prologue, a calendar collection of the lives of saints and sermons. The didactic part of the Expanded edition of the Prologue was supplemented for the first half of the year with 21 carefully edited passages from the Pandects. During the 14th‒17th centuries, scribes revised the translation of the Pandects again. The subject of this study is the new versions of the Pandects of Antiochus in comparison with the traditional synaxarian sermons from this source. When examining about 100 copies of the Prologue from the autumn-winter half of the church year, dating back to the 14th‒17th centuries, 6 such articles were found. In the Moscow and Kirill-Belozersky editions of the Prologue, which belong to the Moscow literary tradition, I found two new versions (A Sermon on Fasting and on Prayer, A Sermon on if one Loves the World). The fragments of the Pandects were copied from the source in their entirety, without introducing significant changes. In the manuscript tradition of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (GDL), and later also of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (PLC), more new variants of the sermons appeared. In the Navahrudak edition, in the two varieties of the Expanded edition and in the Museum edition, four traditional Prologue articles were edited (A Sermon on Eloquence, A Sermon on Dreams, A Sermon on Fasting and on Prayer, A Sermon on if one Loves the World). The writers used a special technique of segmenting the sermons and amending their style. It is possible to conclude that the 10th century translation of the work of monk Antiochus underwent a greater transformation in the literary tradition of the GDL than in the Grand Duchy of Moscow. Ukrainian scribes played a special role in the reception of the Pandects of Antiochus in the lands of the GDL and later in the PLC.

The article discusses the translations and the history of publishing of Kolyma stories in Poland, from the first underground booklets released in the 1980s’, which contained merely a dozen or so stories selected from the famous London publication, Колымские рассказы [Kolyma stories], published by Mikhail Geller in 1978. They were the first presentations of the work. Thus, for translators, it was essential that such important pieces reached Polish readers as quickly as possible, at least in excerpts. One of the translators, Stefan Wodnik (born Adam Bal), took on the task of rendering a significantly larger selection of the stories accessible, but it was still not the entirety. In the introduction, he offered an interpretation of Shalamov’s work, combined with a justification of his translational choices, including the necessity to change the order of many of the stories in relation to their London original. It was only the next translator, engineer Juliusz Baczyński, who had not up until then been professionally involved in translation, who rendered the entire London volume. In Poland, it is still considered the full translation of Kolyma stories by Varlam Shalamov, although, as we know today, it diverges significantly from the author’s version in terms of the selection and organisation of individual stories. His translation was very highly regarded by, among others, Gustaw Herling-Grudziński, a distinguished writer and prominent expert in Gulag literature and the works of Shalamov.

Hugo de Urriès, chevalier et fidèle défenseur de l’entreprise des Rois Catholiques, traduisit en castillan les Faits et dits mémorables de Valère Maxime en 1467. Son œuvre, composée à partir de la traduction en français élaborée par Simon de Hesdin et Nicolas de Gonesse un siècle plus tôt, connaît des différences aussi bien lexicales que sémantiques. Cette étude analyse certains de ces changements trouvés dans la réédition des exempla entre l’impression de 1495 et la troisième réimpression en 1529.

This aim of this issue is to reflect on the multiple ways in which a so-called “literary” text can circulate among its various audiences over time. Building on a broad definition of the notion of “publication”, the issue pays attention to the “life of the works”—whose identity is often intermedial or plurimedial. By combining poetic, aesthetic and sociological approaches, it intends to work towards the sharing of tools useful for the study of “literary” activities and works, in all their diversity, bring together disciplines and traditions interested in these activities and works.

Editing the correspondence between George Seferis and Ioanna Seferiadi (1919-1924), published in 2021, gave rise to some considerations about the editing process for this type of personal documents in particular. With the aim of providing a real picture of the reality of the manuscript, in these pages we will explain the options proposed, why in the end orthographic update was chosen, to what extent this has been applied and finally which elements have been altered, which remain unaltered, and why. In addition, we try to justify our decisions based on the different positions and arguments used by experts on this subject. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this research, first, besides criticizing the corrections and explanations of Hadiqat al-Haqiqa, the correct recording of the word and verse was examined and then, a semantic analysis of it was presented by considering the double readings of the word and how it was used in other texts. Introduction The first and most basic step in editing ancient Persian texts is to scrutinize the different forms and readings of words and expressions used in the texts. This review requires a detailed semantic knowledge of the lexical system of language. In the meanwhile, recognizing the correct recording of words entered from Arabic language requires more precision and research. Some of these words have different readings in the original language and have consequently found various semantic uses in Persian language. Undoubtedly, the editors’ and researchers’ ignorance of these multiple readings and meanings cause problems in the recording and description of the words and even verses or phrases related to them. In this article, the correct reading and recording of one of these words (Ofāt/Afãt) in a verse of Sanã'ie Ghaznavi's Hadiqat al-Haqiqa was investigated. Materials & Methods In this research, by using library sources and taking advantage of intratextual and intertextual evidence and reasons, a verse and a word (Ofāt/Afãt) from Hadiqah al-Haqiqa were corrected and a comprehensive semantic analysis waas presented for them. Also, while examining the use of this word in other texts, such as Mas’ud-e Sa’d's Divãn, the inconsistency of the selected semantic aspects of the authors’ dictionaries and commentators of the text with the way the word was used in the text was criticized.Discussion of Results & Conclusions In this research, based on the recording of some authentic and old manuscripts and using textual reasons and evidence, as well as lexical research, we showed that the rarely used word of "Ofāt/Afãt" was used in a verse of Hadiqat al-Haqiqa. However, in Modarres Razavi's edition, the correct form of the word was marginalized and in Yāhaghi and Zarqāni’s editions, the correct recording of old manuscripts was misread and distorted. Most of the commentators of Hadiqa had also chosen and explained the wrong form following the recording of Modarres Razavi and none of them had understood its correct form and various readings and consequently the exact meaning of the verse. Despite keeping the correct form of the word, Abdul Latif Abbãsi had presented a wrong and disproportionate meaning of it. In addition to the above points, another use of this word with a different meaning was mentioned in Mas’ud-e Sa’d's Divãn in this research. In the latter case, the interpreters of the text and the authors of the dictionaries had a wrong understanding of the meaning of the mentioned word. The results of this research once again revealed the scientific fact that neglecting the multiple readings and meanings of words can cause errors by editors and commentators, while providing the correct recording and detailed semantic analysis of one of the entered words.

This paper presents a new edition and translation of the chapter Mālinīvastu as preserved in the Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit text Mahāvastu, together with a grammatical commentary and some notes on the structure of this chapter. The edition is based on the oldest manuscript of the Mahāvastu, the so-called ms. Sa, which often offers better readings than those proposed by Émile Senart in his editio princeps of the text from 1882-1897. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Focusing on the late 18th and early 19th occasional poetry, the article discusses the necessity of making accessible to contemporary audiences the works of older Slovak literature. It tackles textological problems such writing poses and addresses issues pertaining to its adequate evaluation from the point of view of literary history. An adequate assessment of the place these texts occupy in the history of the given literature primarily needs to be based on their complex interpretation springing from an intimate knowledge of the text. Making accessible the widest possible corpus of these literary works is therefore an integral part of research of older literature. In 2020, the authors Martin Braxatoris, Ivona Kollárová, Lenka Rišková and Oľga Vaneková published the monograph Príležitosť poézie. Miesto a význam príležitostnej poézie Juraja Palkoviča, Bohuslava Tablica a Pavla Jozefa Šafárika v dejinách slovenskej literatúry [Poetry’s occasion. The place and role of occasional poetry by Juraj Palkovič, Bohuslav Tablic and Pavel Jozef Šafárik in the history of Slovak literature] which, among other things, contains a selection of occasional verse. On the example of this edition, the article describes textological approaches adopted by the authors. Observations outlined in this article wish to inspire future research that would similarly aim at formulating a more exact set of defining principles concerning editorial handling of this type of texts.
