Apparent Problem

This chapter deals with the apparent problem of the end of the Odyssey. The poem could have ended with Odysseus’ and Penelope’s reunion, but it continues in order to provide a final statement on tisis. Thus, the transmitted ending should be considered integral to the poem, against a long tradition that considers it spurious. The final confrontation of the suitors’ relatives and Odysseus’ allies reveals how the natural course of a tisis narrative is to incite further tisis. Other illustrations of the open-endedness of tisis in the poem are also considered. In order for the poem to end, not only must every last suitor die but even the memory of their slaughter must be erased. The possibility of alternative narratives is closed off. This radical conclusion is highlighted in a final speech by Zeus in which he uses strikingly original language to ordain a general amnesia.

Ritual Dance

The late Professor Collingwood claimed that the dance is the mother of all languages in the sense that every kind or order of language (speech, gesture, and so forth) is an offshoot from an original language of total bodily gesture; a language which we all use, whether aware of it or not—even to stand perfectly still, no less than making a movement, is in the strict sense a gesture. He also relates the dance to the artist's language of form and shape. He asks us to imagine an artist who wants to reproduce the emotional effect of a ritual dance in which the dancers trace a pattern on the ground. The emotional effect of the dance depends not on any instantaneous posture, but on the traced pattern. Obviously, he concludes, the sensible thing would be to leave out the dancers altogether, and draw the pattern by itself.

SummaryThe natural course of defibrination syndrome caused by Echis colorata venom (ECV) in five patients is reported. All patients developed afibrinogenemia within six hours after the bite. Concomitantly a depression in factor V was recorded. Factor VIII and thrombocyte count in blood were normal in most patients. In the light of the known effects of ECV on blood coagulation in vivo and in vitro it is concluded that the afibrinogenemia is due to intravascular clotting.Four patients had transient renal damage, manifested by oliguria, azotemia, albuminuria and cylindruria, ascribed to microthrombi in the renal glomeruli.After the bite, the natural course was benign, no major bleeding was observed, and all signs of coagulopathy reverted to normal within 7 days. Therefore we recommend no specific treatment for this condition. In the case of heavily bleeding patients, administration of antiserum against ECV and/or heparin should be considered.

The Military

Today, military terms can be found not only in literature, documents and codes or dictionaries, but in copies of scientific, historical and artistic works written by our ancestors in foreign languages, especially in English as well. The encyclopedic work of Zakhiriddin Muhammad Babur “Baburname”, which at one time was considered a real chronicle and still has not lost its scientific and literary value and was translated into English. Including John Leydne (1826), F.G. Talbot (1909), William Erskine, Annette Suzanne Bevridge (1921) were among them. The article compares the military terms used in the English translation by BaburnameWheeler Thaxton and Salman Rudzhi with those in the original language.
