“…118 Against these livelihood constraints and faced with acute and rising multidimensional poverty, internally displaced persons (IDPs) and host communities resort to coping strategies and practices that directly expose them to violence or the threat of violence. 119 These strategies and risky practices include venturing into highly insecure areas to gather food and firewood, begging, child labour and prostitution. These coping strategies are not just dangerous for individuals; they also risk undermining community relations by fomenting perceptions that IDPs cause instability.…”

This paper explores how climate change, violent conflict, the Covid-19 pandemic and the cost-of-living crisis combine to drive rapidly increasing levels of food insecurity. These drivers play out differently across and within regions and countries, and this paper focuses on how a combination of the drivers plays out on the African continent. It looks at four subregions—North Africa, the Horn of Africa, the Sahel, and Central and Southern Africa—and several countries within these regions. Africa is the continent with the highest proportion of people—just over 20 per cent— facing hunger. Africa also carries the heaviest burden from the impact of climate change. In 2021 18 countries in sub-Saharan Africa experienced armed conflicts. The economic fallout of climate change, conflict and the Covid-19 pandemic has widened inequality and sharpened societal divisions. Addressing the impacts of these compounding crises and breaking the vicious cycle of climate change, food insecurity and conflict requires a concerted effort by local, national, regional and global humanitarian, development and peacebuilding actors, governments and donors. To this end, the paper concludes with nine recommendations on the way forward.

“…7 Is it not easier to explain -ᾱο at least from phonological point of view as an outcome of the pronominal ending *-so? 8 As regards the substitution of the nominal nominative and genitive plural endings *-esand *-m with the pronominal *-i and *-sōm, in all Greek dialects and Lesbian and Thessalian and > *-ōyo (> *-ōo > *-ō) in the other dialects, was proposed by Kiparsky, 1967: 629-633, see also Willi, 2008: 246-250. This, however, would imply that the numerous Homeric genitives in -οο were just artificially created forms for metrical reasons.…”

Notes on the Evidence for the Influence of Pronominal on Nominal Inflexion in Mycenaen Archives

The inflexion of pronouns varies in different Indo-European languages and so far, as it can be reconstructed, in the Proto-Indo-European it was different in several aspects from the inflexion of nouns and adjectives. In the course of time pronominal and nominal inflexions went through a process of mutual levelling. The analysis and comparison of the thematic and athematic nominal inflexions has shown that gendered pronouns played important role in the development of the thematic o-stem and eH 2 -stem substantives.The evidence of the Greek language for the relationship of pronouns and other nomina is significant and complex at the same time, bearing in mind the individual development of Greek dialects and the archaic features of the earliest Greek records found in Mycenaean archives.The aim of this paper is to re-examine the evidence for the influence of pronominal on nominal inflexion found in Mycenaean Greek documents in the light of more recent studies and discuss its relevance for the earliest history of pronouns and nouns in the Greek language and the reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European.

Time expressions in AncientGreek are versatile regarding their form, since the semantic role of Time in this language, like in other Indo-European languages is expressed with several different cases. The use of different cases is related to the conceptualization of Time. Although, there is no abundance of time expressions in the Mycenaean documents, the words for 'day ', 'month', 'year' are attested and it has been observed that, just as in the Post-Mycenaean period, time expressions can be in genitive, dative-locative, accusative. In addition, on some of the tablets, when the date is specified with a month name, phrases that consist of forms that, cannot be easily explained as forms of the same case are used.The aim of this paper is to discuss and re-evaluate the meaning of the time expressions (consisting of nouns, nominal phrases or adverbs) found on the Linear B tablets, in terms of Time conceptualization. Furthermore, the evidence from the Mycenaean period is compared with relevant forms from the Post-Mycenaean period in order to deepen our understanding of the diachrony of the time expressions in the Greek language.
