A specific set of images recurs throughout the work, tracing the overall structure of a unified poem: the 'Homeric Allegories'. These images can be found in key parts of the work, including the beginning of the Prolegomena to the Allegories of the Iliad, the introduction to the Allegories of the Odyssey, and the conclusion of the Allegories of the Odyssey. The images consist of references to Herodotus, stories of famous engineers, and sea imagery.

The relativistic Hartree-Fock theory provides an appropriate description of PSS restoration in realistic nuclei, especially for pseudo-spin doublets with high angular momenta. This paper reviews the studies of PSS within the RHF theory, focusing on the effects of the Fock terms. The mechanism responsible for the PSS restoration of high-l orbits is emphasized, revealing the manifestation of nuclear in-medium effects on PSS. The important role of the rho-T coupling, which mainly contributes via the Fock terms, is introduced in combination with the relations between PSS and various nuclear phenomena. As a consequence of the nuclear force in complex nuclear many-body systems, PSS and its mechanism can deepen our understanding of nuclear microstructure and related phenomena, and provide insights into the nature of the nuclear force, enriching our knowledge of nuclear physics. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">SYMMETRY-BASEL</span> (2024) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/81807751/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Biochemistry & Molecular Biology </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/23327911" class="text-dark hover-underline">Revealing 2-dimethylhydrazino-2-alkyl alkynyl sphingosine derivatives as sphingosine kinase 2 inhibitors: Some hints on the structural basis for selective inhibition</a> </h4> <p class="text-ellipsis-2">Macarena Corro-Moron, Albert Granell, Varbina Ivanova, Elena Domingo, Raul Beltran-Debon, Xavier Barril, Maria-Jesus Sanz, M.

The framework provided in this paper serves as a useful reference for ongoing ocean literacy research and highlights aspects of ocean literacy that have received limited focus to date. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">MARINE POLLUTION BULLETIN</span> (2023) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/26648106/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="articles_from_authors" class="tab-pane "> <div class="nodata my-4">No Data Available</div> </div> <div id="articles_from_journal" class="tab-pane "> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Medieval & Renaissance Studies </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/83925638" class="text-dark hover-underline">Anna Komnene, the Kontostephanoi, and the Norman invasions of 1107 -1108 and 1147 - 1149</a> </h4> <p class="text-ellipsis-2">Lucas McMahon</p> <div class="d-flex mb-3"> <div class="p-3 rounded" style="background-color: #e8f3ff;"> <strong>Summary:</strong> In the Alexiad, Anna Komnene speaks poorly of Isaakios Kontostephanos' actions during the second Norman invasion of the Balkans. This paper argues that Anna did so to blacken Isaakios' reputation and distance her father from a failed Italian invasion. Additionally, it is suggested that Anna wrote her history in response to the deposition of Patriarch Kosmas II Attikos and the Norman attack in 1147, as well as the Kontostephanos family's attempt to create a quasi-imperial image. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">BYZANTINISCHE ZEITSCHRIFT</span> (2024) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/83925638/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Medieval & Renaissance Studies </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/29079431" class="text-dark hover-underline">The uses of oaths in early Byzantine imperial politics: a reconsideration</a> </h4> <p class="text-ellipsis-2">Michael Wuk</p> <div class="d-flex mb-3"> <div class="p-3 rounded" style="background-color: #e8f3ff;"> <strong>Summary:</strong> This article reexamines the frequent wearing of oaths in early Byzantine imperial politics. The act of swearing had value beyond enforcing obligations and could be used to accuse oath-breakers and stigmatize them. Swearing itself could facilitate political goals and highlight power dynamics. The strategic bending and breaking of pacts could render the maintenance or violation of oaths irrelevant. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">BYZANTINISCHE ZEITSCHRIFT</span> (2023) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/29079431/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Medieval & Renaissance Studies </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/28022287" class="text-dark hover-underline">The early history of the thema of the Boukellarioi (8th century)</a> </h4> <p class="text-ellipsis-2">Christos Malatras</p> <div class="d-flex mb-3"> <div class="p-3 rounded" style="background-color: #e8f3ff;"> <strong>Summary:</strong> This paper uses unpublished sigillographical materials to re-examine the establishment of the thema of the Boukellarioi and argues that it occurred earlier than the mid-8th century.

Despite their likely manufacture in Constantinople, their unique shape and decoration suggest a non-Roman origin. A similar silver object is identified as an example of this type of drinking bowl. The barbarian images on the bowls are identified as Avar, and are linked to the 626 Avar-Persian siege of Constantinople. By combining these vessels with other sources, the article sheds light on Byzantine cultural construction of the Avar and historical events in 7th-century Constantinople, demonstrating that analysis of material culture can provide new insights into Byzantine concepts of outsider ethnicities and collective identity. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">BYZANTINISCHE ZEITSCHRIFT</span> (2024) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/83925523/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Medieval & Renaissance Studies </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/29079429" class="text-dark hover-underline">The Hermoglyphos Pason and the enigma of a stone: Arist.

Regarding food, it is generally believed that Middle Byzantine urban settlements were not self-sufficient and relied on agricultural produce from their surrounding areas. This paper argues that some urban settlements may have had the potential to produce enough food to sustain themselves, prompting a reevaluation of the traditional interpretation. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">BYZANTINISCHE ZEITSCHRIFT</span> (2023) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/29079434/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Medieval & Renaissance Studies </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/83374914" class="text-dark hover-underline">An Egyptian pilgrim in Asia Minor: linguistic placing of a graffito from Hierapolis</a> </h4> <p class="text-ellipsis-2">Arkadiy Avdokhin</p> <div class="d-flex mb-3"> <div class="p-3 rounded" style="background-color: #e8f3ff;"> <strong>Summary:</strong> This article analyses the graffiti at the shrine of the apostle Philip at Hierapolis, Asia Minor, and reveals the Egyptian variety of the late Greek koine used in the inscription.

The poem is attributed to John Mauropous, but its prosodic accuracy is questionable. It is a long prayer dedicated to the guardian angel, inspired by Mauropous' own hymn.
