A PLEA ...
From: IN%"gschaus@mach1.wlu.ca" "gerald schaus F" 13-APR-1995
On July 4th, this year, the CANADIAN ACADEMIC INSTITUTE IN ATHENS (CAIA)
must complete the purchase of its new quarters at Aiginitou 7, 3 blocks
behind the Hilton Hotel in Athens, by making the final payment of $16,000.
The total purchase price is approximately $180,000 including the necessary
renovations. All but $1,000 of the total so far raised has come from the
Friends of CAIA, a group of Greeks and resident Canadians in Athens, and a
small one-time government grant. The Friends have been so wonderfully
generous in raising money for our building, while supporters in CAIA have
only been asked to provide funds for operating expenses. Now we are facing
a difficult deadline to complete the purchase. For this reason we are
appealing strongly and urgently to the Classical community in Canada for
help in raising this final $16,000. Because CAIA is a registered charitable
organization, all donations are eligible for income tax receipts.
Contributions may be sent to Prof. Sheila Campbell, President of CAIA, c/o
Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies, 59 Queen's Park Cres., Toronto,
Ontario, M5S 2C4.

*Lectureships in Classics at the University of Malawi*
The Department of Classics at Chancellor College, University of Malawi,
announces the opening of two positions for Lecturer of Classics.
Candidates should be qualified to teach beginning Latin and/or Greek, as
well as courses in classical culture and literature. In addition to
instruction in the classical languages, the department offers the following
subjects:
-- History of Political Institutions in Antiquity. (A history and
composition course designed to suit the interests of students in the newly
democratic Malawi.)
-- Greek Mythology and African Myth. (A comparative approach to the
introduction of Greek mythology to African students.)
-- Ancient Drama.
-- Ancient Philosophy.
-- Religions of Antiquity. (With a comparative glance at traditional
African religions and rituals.)
-- Greek and Roman Art & Archaeology.
Chancellor College is the main campus of the University of Malawi. It
is located in Zomba, the old provincial capital of former British
Nyasaland. All instruction is done in English, though English is a second
or third language for all students.
Salaries are poor by the standards of the First World. Payment is in
the local currency the Malawi kwacha, which has recently suffered a series
of devaluations. At current rates of exhange, a Lecturer's annual salary
is equivalent to CAD 2,800. Applicants should understand that they are
being asked to work at virtually volunteer wages.
On the other hand, it must be said that at the level of the local
economy, a lecturer's salary is respectable and affords one a comfortable
life-style. The University supplies housing and furniture, and will cover
relocation costs.
All queries should be directed to the Head of Department, Tom Knight at
the following e-mail address: tknight@unima.wn.apc.org or by regular post

ANNOUNCING A NEW JOURNAL OF ANCIENT LITERATURE AND HISTORY ON THE WEB.
Within the few next months, *Arachne*, a new journal for classical studies,
will appear on the World Wide Web. *Arachne* intends especially to act as
an "electronic voice" for European classical scholarship, but editors hope to
have this supplemented by a vigorous international input. We welcome and
encourage contributions from scholars throughout the world.
*Arachne* maintains friendly contacts with *Electronic Antiquity.
Communicating the Classics*, which, along with *BMCR*, was the first of
the electronic classical journals. We aim in the future for a number of
cooperative ventures with that journal.
Title: Arachne. A Journal of Ancient Literature and History on the Web
URL: http://www.cisi.unito.it/arachne/arachne.html
Editors: Maurizio Lana (CISI of Torino)
Emanuele Narducci (University of Firenze)
Editorial Board: Mario Citroni (University of Firenze); Jean-Michel David
(University of Strasbourg); Marco Fantuzzi (University of Firenze); Don
P. Fowler (Oxford); Konrad H. Kinzl (Trent University, Canada); Peter
Toohey (University of New England, Armidale).
Glenn W. Most (University of Heidelberg) cooperates with this journal
helping us in the task of evaluating papers and assuring contacts with
German scholars.
Submissions: Instructions on submission are given below. Please note,
however, that *Arachne* is a refereed journal and looks for material of
comparable quality. Contributions that we especially encourage are:
papers dealings with subjects of large general interest; brief
philological notes; critical debates responding to the thesis of important
books or papers. Note, however, that, for the moment, we do not plan to
publish a regular review of new books.
Our project is largely experimental. For the moment, *Arachne* makes no
claim for copyright to any material that it publishes. Please feel free to
republish material that we have already handled. In the cause of fair
play, however, we would ask that you make reference to the fact that your
article has already appeared in *Arachne*, including the relevant
bibliographical information. If you wish to have considered for publication
an article that appeared elsewhere (or, for some particular reason, one
that is still in press), please clearly indicate where else the article
appeared or is to appear.
Text may be submitted in two main e-formats: Word for Windows or Word for
Mac; if this is not possible RTF is preferred.
You should format your text in italics for latin quotations, titles of
quoted books and papers, and so on.
The text can be sent to the journal a) by e-mail or b) by regular mail.
a) If by e-mail: attach it to a message, and encode it in uuencode format;
alternatively in binhex 4.0 format (the encoding is handled by your email
program: see the docs or your Sys Admin for help about this matter, if
needed); mail this message to arachne@rs950.cisi.unito.it and send another
message to narducci@mailserver.idg.fi.cnr.it or to lana@cisi.unito.it to
inform the editors that you sent the paper. Please do not send to
arachne@rs950.cisi.unito.it ordinary mailing and messages: we check the
mail for *Arachne* only when we know that a text was sent for submission.
b) If by regular mail: mail to Emanuele Narducci, Dipartimento di Scienze
dell'antichita, via Alfani 31, I-50121 Firenze, Italy or to Maurizio Lana,
via Varallo 14, I-10153 Torino, Italy.
Accepted Languages: Accepted Languages are English, French, German, Italian
Length of Papers: Maximum length of the paper should not exceed 20-25
pages, each of 2500 characters or so.
Structure and Summary: We would prefer you to divide your text into
sections, each with a subtitle (heading), so that the author himself gives
a summary of his paper. This summary is the very first approach to the
article by the would-be reader. Please try to make these headings
accurately reflect the contents of your article.
Greek Quotations: At present the html language underlying the Web does not
allow mixing multiple fonts into one single document. Greek characters may
appear in the Web documents only as image, not as text. These images take
up considerable disk space and require a considerable work if they are to
be linked in the appopriate place to the text (this is however the task of
the editors).
Contributors should arrange Greek text quotations as follows:
- for short quotations within the lines of your text give the Greek words
in transliterated form, with accents but no breathings (use "h" for rough
breathing). Use "e" for epsilon and eta, "o" for omega and omicron.
- for longer quotations in "infratext" you should give the text in the Beta
coding of the TLG (Beta code is preferred to Greek fonts; then we will
choose the best Greek font for displaying on WWW). Please give exact
references for the quotations (Example: Plato, Res Publica [in italics] I,
344d-345d). The editors will convert the Greek text-Beta coding of longer
quotations into image(s) of Greek text that can be inserted into the Web
documents of *Arachne*.
Notes (footnotes): Producing footnotes readable in the hypertextual format
of World Wide Web (html) requires a considerable amount of time, because
each link must be established manually. So please help us in this task by:
reducing to a minimum the number, and possibly the length, of footnotes
(also conflating many bibliographical references in only one footnote);
giving the notes as endnotes (at the end of the paper and of the file) and
not as footnotes.
For bibliographical references to journals use the abbreviations of
*L'annee philologique*. Note the use of commas: Author, Title in italics,
Journal Abbreviation and Volume number (with no comma between), Year, Page
(s). For books: Author, Title in Italics, Place of Print and Year (with no
comma between), Page(s). When cited again, please use short titles of
books and articles.
