This article discusses curses found in ancient and late antique Jewish funerary inscriptions. It begins with a typology of imprecatory texts based on a survey of funerary epigraphy, both Jewish and non-Jewish. It proceeds with an analysis of explicit curse formulae found in a Jewish funerary context: on ossuaries, on the walls of burial caves, or on architectural elements of graves. The article discusses several aspects of these curses, placing them in a physical, religious, and psychological context.
Résumé-Les études climatologiques, doivent faire appel à des techniques d’analyses performantes. Pournotre étude nous avons choisis deux paramètres (pluviométrie et débit) pour évaluer les changements climatiques dans le bassin versant de la Soummam(BVS) (De Castro, 1993). Trois séries pluviométriques et une série de débit seront analysées à haute fréquence, le traitement se fera par le logiciel R, selon la méthode des ondelettes, l’interprétation des résultats est faite en fonction des graphiques obtenus par l’analyse statistique. L’efficacité de la méthode utilisée, la comparaison de nos résultats au modèle NAO et l’évaluation de l’impact climatique sur le BVS, seront vérifiées par notre étude.
Background: Preoperative anxiety is a significant concern for many patients undergoing elective surgery as it can negatively impact many aspects of anesthesia. Perioperative anxiety is associated with increased autonomic variability, higher anesthetic and analgesic requirements, and a greater incidence of nausea, vomiting, and pain during the early postoperative period. This prospective study was designed to compare the assessment of acute preoperative (state) anxiety using a visual analog scale (VAS), the Categorical Anxiety Scale (CAS) and a novel emoji-based Visual Facial Anxiety Scale (VFAS). Methods: 293 adult patients undergoing elective surgical procedures were enrolled in this observational, prospective cohort study. In the preoperative evaluation area, anesthesia providers were questioned about their methods for assessing preoperative anxiety. After the anesthesiologists completed their evaluations and left the area, a co-investigator administered three anxiety assessment tools to the patients in a random order in the preoperative holding area before they entered the operating room.

This paper is aimed at providing the building blocks of a method for analyzing metaphor in argumentative discourse. It focuses on two specific argumentative uses of metaphor: (1) metaphor as (part of) a standpoint and (2) metaphor as (part of) an argument. After an explanation of some basic argumentation theoretical insights concerning types of standpoints and arguments, it will be demonstrated how these insights can be applied by analyzing a number of concrete examples of the use of metaphor in argumentative discourse.
