Some talks from Formulaic Language in Historical Linguistics
Since last April, I’ve been working part-time on the AlUla Inscriptions Corpus Analysis Project (AICAP) at Ghent University. The researchers are spread out over four different countries, but this week, we all converged on Helsinki, Finland, to take part in a workshop on formulaic language—a major feature of the North Arabian corpora we’re working on.
Helsinki’s iconic Tuomiokirkko, the Lutheran cathedral (there’s a separate Orthodox one that is also very nice). Can you spot the four-horned altars?To my slight disappointment, most of the presenters seemed to be asking very different questions than the kind I normally associate with historical linguistics. Was it just me?
https://bsky.app/profile/bnuyaminim.bsky.social/post/3lqop6jn5ik2g
While most of the replies went for my preferred answer A, there were a few B’s too. Since my followers probably skew towards agreeing with me, that supports the possibility that a large chunk of scholars use “historical linguistics” to mean “linguistics but on texts from history times”. Which is fine! Maybe we should start using a different term for A, as done here by the Venerable Bate.
https://bsky.app/profile/dannybate.bsky.social/post/3lqormvmcjs2m
Regardless of terminology, it’s the type A research that I tend to be most interested in. So I’d like to highlight the couple of talks that did focus on those kinds of diachronic questions, together with a few others.
On Monday, Francesca Schironi talked about how Hipparchus (2nd c. BCE) used formulaic language to present a bunch of astronomical data in a way that makes it easier for the reader to navigate. Where later authors put data in tables, Hipparchus has set formulas to let you know what star in what constellation he’s talking about, what star culminates at its rising and setting, and so forth.
Jorge Alejandro Wong Medina talked about the use of different Greek dialects in the Homeric epics. Wong showed that some forms with Aeolic features, like néessi ‘ships (dat.)’, could only have been created by speakers of an Ionic dialect. This shows that they are not retentions from a hypothesised “Aeolic phase” of the epic tradition, but were artificially created to fit the metre.
This is about as dark as Helsinki gets this time of year.On Tuesday, I got to chair our project’s panel, not having anything of my own to present yet. Although these talks were nearly the only ones that were fully about non-European languages, it was good to see them attract a very sizeable audience (other outliers included Riccardo Ginevra, Erica Biagetti et al. on Homeric Greek and Vedic Sanskrit and a talk by Daniele Di Pasquale on Old Korean that I missed).
Jérôme Norris introduced the various pre-Islamic epigraphic corpora of Northern Arabia and talked about how they used different formulas. While some are limited to just one writing tradition (like Nabataean šlm ‘may he be well’), others occur in different corpora and may have been borrowed or inherited between scripts/languages.
Julia Maczuga investigated the origins of the formulas seen in Early Islamic inscriptions from the region. While many are new (and usually explicitly Islamic in meaning), there’s also a large set of formulas that show continuity with pre-Islamic corpora. Some of these have even wider-ranging connections, being used in non-Arabian languages like Greek too.
Fokelien Kootstra-Ford, the project’s PI, presented some of her work on Dadanitic, where formula usage is just one way in which the corpus shows considerable variety. AICAP’s fieldwork has also turned up a previously unknown formula, attested in inscriptions at one site only, prompting a discussion of what it might mean and how we can figure that out in the first place.
(I’ve got some nice pictures of these presentations but I haven’t asked the speakers for permission to use them. Maybe they’ll appear on the project’s Instagram page at some point.)
Finally, I also enjoyed Samuel Peter Cook‘s talk on Greek calquing in Coptic legal texts. The two main examples he discussed were e-u ōrej ‘as a security’ which accurately follows the semantics, not the form of the equivalent Greek pròs aspháleian, and the first person singular performative e-i-sōtm, a finite verb, which Cook argues started out as a non-finite circumstantial present calquing Greek participles.

#UNICEF: dal 2025 #Israele ha ucciso 70 bambini in #Cisgiordania
Dal 2025 l’esercito e i coloni israeliani hanno ucciso 70 #bambini palestinesi in Cisgiordania occupata, ferendone oltre 800. Lo denuncia l’UNICEF, l’agenzia ONU per l’infanzia:«Non si tratta di incidenti isolati. Evidenziano anzi un modello persistente del peggior tipo di violazione, quelle contro i bambini», ha dichiarato il portavoce #JamesElder in una conferenza stampa a Ginevra dopo essere stato in #Palestina la scorsa settimana.

A woman from the Muslim community walks through the alleys of the village of Baghori. Even though she comes from a stable economic background, her life –and that of her female relatives and friends – is still deeply conditioned by the taboos and stigma surrounding menstruation.

@sandorspruit That is really powerful. We truly respect how the #Netherlands comes together on #rememberance Day (Netherlands) to honor those lives.
Taking time to pause and reflect like that really matters, especially today. It’s a strong reminder of the #value of #peace.

A 35-year-old woman lies on a bed inside a kurma ghar, a mud and bamboo hut with a dilapidated roof. Kurma ghars are used as isolation places for women and girls during menstruation in tribal villages, based on the belief of their supposed impurity. These huts lack essential services such as adequate beds, drinking water, toilets and cooking facilities.

A group of women reflected in the water. Despite approximately 355 million women of menstruating age in India, only 45% of girls are aware of menstruation before menarche. According to national data, 78% of women aged 15 to 24 use menstrual products, yet about 50% still rely on cloths, a practice that is unhygienic and a potential risk factor for infections and disease. Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India, November 2025.

A young goat destined to be sacrificed to the goddess Kamakhya as an act of devotion. The tradition of bali (offering or sacrifice) is, in this context, a ritual practice linked to fertility, power and devotion to the goddess Kamakhya, associated with the divine feminine and the menstrual cycle.

milano, 5 aprile: “ri-materializzazione del linguaggio. 1978-2022”
incontro per
RIMATERIALIZZAZIONE DEL LINGUAGGIO. 1978-2022
con Gaia Ginevra Giorgi, Cristiana Perrella, Andrea Viliani5 aprile, dalle 20
Viale Stelvio 66, Milano
FREE ENTRY
Sabato 5 aprile, dalle ore 20, nel nuovo spazio di Frittelli Arte Contemporanea e Galleria Michela Rizzo, Cristiana Perrella e Andrea Viliani presentano Ri-Materializzazione del Linguaggio. 1978–2022, il primo tentativo di una ricostruzione filologica della mostra seminale Materializzazione del linguaggio, curata nel 1978 da Mirella Bentivoglio e dedicata alle esplorazioni verbo-visive di ottanta artiste internazionali.A seguire, in connessione con la ricerca di Bentivoglio, un intervento performativo di Giorgi interroga la rimessa in circolo dei documenti di un archivio impossibile (registrazioni deteriorate, found sounds, lettere mai inviate, pagine di diario, appunti, materiali di scarto) come modo di invenzione di nuovi futuri e temporalità.
L’evento è realizzato grazie al sostegno della Fondazione Antonio Dalle Nogare.

“The pieces I chose were based on one thing only — a gasp of delight. Isn’t that the only way to curate a life?”*…
The Louvre has the Mona Lisa. In his nifty newsetter Ironic Sans, David Friedman reviews the “most treasured” holding of other museums…
Did you know that there is only one painting by Leonardo da Vinci on view in America? It’s a portrait of a teenage girl named Ginevra de’ Benci, a Florentine aristocrat, possibly commissioned for her wedding. And it’s one of only four portraits Leonardo painted of women. The most famous one, of course, is the Mona Lisa.The portrait of Ginevra is on display at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, which acquired the painting in 1967. There’s an interesting story of how the painting was brought from Liechtenstein Castle to Washington in carry-on luggage.
[I haven’t told you this yet, but for the past year I’ve been working full-time as Senior Video Producer at the National Gallery of Art. I love it. Working in a museum surrounded by some of the world’s best art and telling stories about how art makes a difference in people’s lives, every day is a good day. Another time, I’ll share some of the work we’re doing. But for now, I just need to make clear that this newsletter is in no way formally connected to the museum or my work there.]
Here is Ginevra, painted by Leonardo around 30 years before Mona Lisa:
I once heard someone refer to Ginevra as “America’s Mona Lisa.” Obviously that’s in part because they’re both by the same artist. But sometimes people refer to something as their Mona Lisa to mean it’s their prize possession, or an incredible work, or the draw that people come to see.
And that got me wondering: What do other museums and institutions refer to as their Mona Lisa?
So I did some digging and I’ve gathered 17 works of art and other surprising things where someone from the institution has gone on record calling it their Mona Lisa…
From Duccio and Matisse to Sow and Warhol: “It’s Their Mona Lisa,” from @ironicsans.com.

As we hit the highlights, we might spare a thought for a man whose works were often the “Mona Lisas” of the halls they graced: Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (AKA, Giambattista or Gianbattista Tiepolo): he died on this date in 1770. A painter and printmaker from the Republic of Venice, his luminous, poetic frescoes, while extending the tradition of Baroque ceiling decoration, epitomized the lightness and elegance of the Rococo period. Indeed, he was described by National Gallery head Michael Levey as “the greatest decorative painter of eighteenth-century Europe, as well as its most able craftsman.” He is considered– with Giambattista Pittoni, Canaletto, Giovan Battista Piazzetta, Giuseppe Maria Crespi, and Francesco Guardi— one of the traditional Old Masters of that period.
