For the validity and reliability analysis of the \"AKAS of Telemedicine\" questionnaire, 425 medical faculty students and medical residents were included in the study, and the sample was 7-10 times the number of questionnaire items. Exploratory factor analysis was performed for construct validity. The test-retest method was engaged to assess reliability. Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient and the item-total correlation coefficient were calculated for internal consistency. Descriptive statistics were given as mean, standard deviation, median, and first and third quartile values for numerical variables, and numbers and percentages for categorical variables. The Mann-Whitney U test, the Kruskal-Wallis test, and Spearman's correlation coefficient were conducted to evaluate the correlation between variables.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The Cronbach alpha reliability coefficient of the \"AKAS of Telemedicine\" questionnaire was found to be 0.950, 0.851, 0.970, and 0.952 in the sub-areas, respectively. When an item was removed, the Cronbach alpha reliability coefficient values ranged between 0.826 and 0.969, and no significant difference was detected. As a result of test-retest reliability analysis, a strong positive correlation was found between the total scores (awareness r=0.848, knowledge r=0.792, attitude r=0.787, and skill r=0.816; p<0.001 for each score).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The Turkish form of the \"AKAS of Telemedicine\" questionnaire is a valid and reliable measurement tool that can be used to evaluate the level of AKAS among physicians. It was concluded that research using the \"AKAS of Telemedicine\" questionnaire would be useful to determine the telemedicine AKAS levels among Turkiye, particularly in health sector workers.</p>","PeriodicalId":46255,"journal":{"name":"CLASSICAL PHILOLOGY","volume":"38 1","pages":"18-26"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10861423/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82349943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While generally understood as a self-referential declaration of Caligula’s excess, it has also been interpreted as a pun on the name of M. Licinius Crassus Frugi, whose son was an enemy of the emperor. This paper identifies an additional pun that contrasts the Phrygian king Midas, famed for his golden touch, with Caligula, whose attempt to turn arsenic sulfide into gold had failed. This newly identified pun reveals Caligula’s witticism to be self-aware and self-deprecating.","PeriodicalId":46255,"journal":{"name":"CLASSICAL PHILOLOGY","volume":" 10","pages":"140 - 145"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139393404","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prosopography is dependent on the appearance of named individuals in sources, but many Romans, especially those who were enslaved, were not granted nomina sufficient to securely identify them. We will look at one name, Dionysius, whose unstable identification within Cicero’s correspondence has caused problems for centuries. New theoretical turns in the study of enslavement, particularly those from Black studies, allow us to understand such figures as more than a footnote in history, reading Dionysius’ story as a call to take a different approach toward the minor figures of the past.","PeriodicalId":46255,"journal":{"name":"CLASSICAL PHILOLOGY","volume":" 6","pages":"94 - 110"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139392694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Editors of collections of Aristotle-fragments have included either or both of these references, but there has been little agreement over which lost work this material might come from. This note offers a fresh assessment of these two passages and concludes that the Aristotle-reference in Cat. 34 refers to passages in the Historia animalium, whereas the lost Zoïka is the most likely (but far from certain) source of the reference in Cat. 41.","PeriodicalId":46255,"journal":{"name":"CLASSICAL PHILOLOGY","volume":"49 s171","pages":"123 - 131"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139393721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Contrary to more expected practices of poetic reference, Lucan’s allusive gestures at Ennian verse (Ann. 234–35 Skutsch) are shown to be aimed simultaneously at Cicero’s Pro Balbo, the speech that preserves the fragmentary lines. They are examples of a curious variant of “window reference” or “two-tier allusion.” Despite Lucan almost certainly having read the lines set within their original context in Ennius’ epic, his poem also activates them as a quotation ensconced within Cicero’s speech. Through allusion to Ennius’ Hannibal, Lucan’s epic uses the Annales to recall its (now largely unknown) depiction of the Carthaginian general. At the same time, it refers to Cicero’s speech as the transmitting source and as a meaningful interpretation of the fragment that provides both a “corrected” characterization and additional content of marked importance to Lucan’s poem.","PeriodicalId":46255,"journal":{"name":"CLASSICAL PHILOLOGY","volume":" 9","pages":"70 - 93"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139392994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It argues that wine-drinking as a socioreligious rite and symbol of participation in society provides a semantic framework for the striking collocation νήφων ἀοίνοις in line 100. The article shows that the shared sobriety of Oedipus and the Eumenides relates directly to the main theme of the play: the tension between Oedipus’ situation as a polluted outcast and his integration into the fabric of Athenian society. Sophocles creates a verbal symbolon that defines the status of Oedipus and the Eumenides as a community of outsider-insiders.","PeriodicalId":46255,"journal":{"name":"CLASSICAL PHILOLOGY","volume":"79 1","pages":"29 - 46"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139395535","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper makes use of several case studies to argue that non-elite exempla within Livy are treated differently, being built around specific non-threatening virtues, primarily pietas. It finds that Livian non-elite exempla are complex and have serious issues with regards to agency and the potential for emulation. The paper also examines why Livy deployed these non-elite exemplary stories. To conclude, the paper engages with Matthew Roller’s 2018 “Model of Roman Exemplarity,” ultimately arguing that this model does not account for the complications of Livy’s non-elite exempla, and that changes and allowances need to be made with Roller’s model in order to apply it to them.","PeriodicalId":46255,"journal":{"name":"CLASSICAL PHILOLOGY","volume":"12 47","pages":"47 - 69"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139395852","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rather, both Hermes and Aphrodite have goals beyond deception when they make false assertions. The lies uttered by Hermes and Aphrodite demonstrate how divine lies in the Homeric Hymns exert a perlocutionary force beyond deception and highlight the praiseworthy aspects of each god.","PeriodicalId":46255,"journal":{"name":"CLASSICAL PHILOLOGY","volume":"9 10","pages":"111 - 122"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139394948","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
