Ostraka Varia: Tax Receipts and Legal Documents on Demotic, Greek, and Greek-Demotic Ostraka, Chiefly of the Early Ptolemaic Period, from Various Collections (P. L. Bat. 26): Papyrologica Lugduno-Batava, cartea 26

Autor Vleeming
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 oct 1994
A large majority of the 65 ostraka published in this volume come from Egypt in the Third Century B.C. Some thirty are from Elephantine; these comprise a number of Greek and Greek-demotic receipts. Not unimportant new texts from Hermonthis and Thebes (among others, a fine example of a temple oath) add notably to the diversity of the volume. Although of course tax receipts predominate, these are present in a rich variety, and their commentaries add much to our knowledge of fiscal matters in this period.
As a nouveauté the Greek and demotic texts are published on exactly the same footing, and a constant effort is made to merge the separate worlds of Greek and demotic papyrology.
Hand-facsimiles facilitate the consultation of the individual texts; the whole is rounded off by photographic plates showing all texts in full.

Recenzii

'Sven Vleeming is to be thanked for this study in depth of several published and unpublished, Greek Demotic and Greek-Demotic ostraka. By this work which sets a very high standard for future publications of ostraka indeed, it has once again become clear that even very small documents, when thoroughly studied, can contribute largely to our knowledge of Graeco-Roman Egypt.'
Mark Depauw, Bulletin Codicologique, 1995.
'La publication de S.P. Vleeming impressionne incontestablement.'
E. van 't Dack, Revue d'Histoire de Droit, 1996.
'...useful and handsome volume...extremely easy to use...the excellent introductory essays and copious notes place the ostraca in a broader context and point to other editions and studies of ostraca.'
Brian Muhs, Bulletin of the American Society of Papyrologists, 1996.
