description: Test smells can reduce the developers' ability to interact with the test code. Refactoring test code offers a safe strategy to handle test smells. However, the manual refactoring activity is not a trivial process, and it is often tedious and error-prone. This study aims to evaluate RAIDE, a tool for automatic identification and refactoring of test smells. We present an empirical assessment of RAIDE, in which we analyzed its capability at refactoring Assertion Roulette and Duplicate Assert test smells and compared the results against both manual refactoring and a state-of-the-art approach. The results show that RAIDE provides a faster and more intuitive approach for handling test smells than using an automated tool for smells detection combined with manual refactoring.

Umfrage

description: Regionalbibliotheken stellen einen wichtigen funktionalen Baustein des deutschen Bibliothekssystems dar: In vielen Fällen auf eine lange Tradition zurückblickend sind sie Träger der kulturellen Überlieferung einer Region und verfügen über unikale, historisch bedeutende Bestände. Sie sammeln und erschließen – zuweilen als Pflichtexemplarbibliotheken – die aktuellen wissenschaftlichen Publikationen über eine Region. In vielen Fällen stellen sie die Versorgung der Allgemeinheit mit wissenschaftlichen Informationen und wissenschaftlicher Literatur sicher. Zur Gruppe gehören Häuser unterschiedlichster Größen und organisatorischer Erscheinungsformen; regionalbibliothekarische Aufgaben werden von genuinen Landesbibliotheken aber auch von Universitäts- und von Stadtbibliotheken erfüllt.
 Das regionalbibliothekarische Angebot ist einerseits auf die allgemeine Öffentlichkeit hin orientiert und stellt andererseits den Ausgangspunkt für spezialisierte – oft außeruniversitäre – historische oder regionsbezogene Forschungen dar. Klar ist, dass Open-Access-Angebote vor diesem besonderen Hintergrund verstanden und entwickelt werden müssen. Weniger klar ist jedoch, wie sich der Stand der Open-Access-Transformation an den Regionalbibliotheken konkret präsentiert, wie weit etwa der offene Zugang zu Digitalisaten und Metadaten entwickelt ist, welche Publikationsdienstleistungen angeboten werden oder wie sich das Thema Open Access auf die Archivierung und Erschließung von Regionalia auswirkt.
 In diese Lücke stößt die von uns in unserem Vortrag vorgestellte Online-Umfrage, die nach Anstößen aus der Veranstaltung „Open Access in Regionalbibliotheken – Ideenbörse für gemeinsame Handlungsfelder“ bei den Open Access Tagen 2019 und auf Anregung der AG Regionalbibliotheken zur Zeit von der Landesbibliothek Oldenburg unter den Angehörigen der Arbeitsgemeinschaft durchgeführt wird. Sie erfasst den Entwicklungsstand mit besonderem Augenmerk auf jene Serviceangebote, die sich an außeruniversitäre Nutzer richten. In unserem Beitrag stellen wir die Umfrage vor und diskutieren ihre Ergebnisse mit Blick auf die spezifischen organisatorischen und strukturellen Bedingungen des Bibliothekstyps sowie auf die weitere Entwicklung der Open-Access-Transformation in diesem Sektor. Über die interne Selbstverständigung zwischen den Regionalbibliotheken hinausgreifend liefern wir mit unseren Überlegungen auch einen grundsätzlichen Beitrag zur Erweiterung der Diskussion um Open Access, die sich oft am Paradigma der Universitätsbibliothek orientiert.

Numerical and experimental techniques for enhanced power generation in a nanoscale-gap thermophotovoltaic device

description: Power generation in a nanoscale-gap thermophotovoltaic (nano-TPV) device can be enhanced, compared to conventional thermophotovoltaic (TPV) systems, due to radiative heat transfer exceeding the blackbody limit. TPV power generation refers to direct thermal-to-electrical energy conversion of near infrared and infrared radiation emitted by a terrestrial source. By separating the radiator and the cell by a gap smaller than the peak emitted wavelength, radiative heat transfer can exceed the blackbody predictions by a few orders of magnitude due to energy transport by waves evanescently confined to the surface of the radiator. This enhanced energy transfer can lead to a significant increase in TPV power generation. This dissertation is divided into two main parts. First, a numerical model is presented which demonstrates increased power generation in nano-TPV devices when compared to conventional TPV systems. The model incorporates near-field radiation, heat and charge transport while accounting for radiative, electrical and thermal losses in the cell. The devices analyzed consist of GaSb cells illuminated by a broadband tungsten and a quasi-monochromatic Drude emitter at 2000 K. Results show an increase in power generation by a factor of 4.7 with a tungsten emitter and a 100-nm-thick gap. Furthermore, it is shown that nano-TPV power generators may perform better with broadband emitters where radiative heat transfer is dominated by frustrated modes rather than surface modes. The second part of this dissertation is devoted to the experimental demonstration of radiative heat transfer exceeding the blackbody limit, which is the fundamental phenomenon underlying enhanced power generation in nano-TPV systems. A MEMS-based experimental device has been fabricated for radiative heat flux measurements between 5  5 mm2 planar intrinsic silicon surfaces separated by a variable gap as small as 150 nm. The separation gap is maintained via rigid spacers and a compliant membrane allows for variation of the gap size via mechanical forces. Results agree well with predictions based on fluctuational electrodynamics. At a gap size of 150 nm, the blackbody limit is exceeded by a factor of 8.4. This is the largest value ever recorded between macroscale planar surfaces at non-cryogenic temperatures.

description: Recent advancements in High Performance Computing (HPC) infrastructure with tradi- tional computing systems augmented with accelerators like graphic processing units (GPUs) and coprocessors like Intel Xeon Phi have successfully enabled predictive simulations specifi- cally Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) with more accuracy and speed. One of the most significant challenges in high-performance computing is to provide a software framework that can scale efficiently and minimize rewriting code to support diverse hardware configurations. Algorithms and framework support have been developed to deal with complexities and provide abstractions for a task to be compatible with various hardware targets. Software is written in C++ and represented as a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) with nodes that implement actual mathematical calculations. This thesis will present an improved approach for scheduling and execution of computational tasks within a heterogeneous CPU-GPU com- puting system insulting application developers with the inherent complexity in parallelism. The details will be presented within a context to facilitate the solution of partial differential equations on large clusters using graph theory.

description: A detailed understanding of the conformation of adsorbed molecules and regional surface functionalization of metal nanoparticles (MNPs) is challenging for nanometersize (10 - 100 m) materials and necessary for fundamental studies and applications. The studies are motivated by open questions related to surface chemistry of noble MNPs. Although citrate-stabilized gold NPs (AuNPs) have been widely used, the citrate layer is not well-understood. Thiols have been suggested to displace citrate anions adsorbed on metal surfaces due to strong gold-sulfur interaction, but quantitative experimental evidence of the extent of ligand-exchange has not been reported. Whereas asymmetrically-functionalized AuNPs are utilized for nanoparticle assembly due to the interparticle coupling of localized surface plasmons, the interface between asymmetric nanoparticles in single assemblies has not been studied. Noble MNPs with sizes smaller than citrate-stabilized AuNPs also need to be surface-modified for stability in water for biological applications. The dissertation presents investigations of the chemical and physical properties of gold and silver NPs (AgNPs) related to ligand adsorption at the metal surface. Firstly, self-assembled layers of citrate adsorbed on AuNP (111), (110), and (100) surfaces were proposed, based on geometric considerations and spectroscopic investigations by infrared (IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Adsorption characteristics of citrate are the unique structure of adsorbed species, intermolecular interactions through hydrogen bonds and van der Waals attractions, bilayer formation, surface coverage, nanoparticle-stabilization role, and chirality. Secondly, IR and XPS studies showed coadsorption of thiolate on the surface of citrate-stabilized AuNPs. Steric, chelating effects and intermolecular interactions are the origins of the strong adsorption of citrate on AuNP surfaces. Surface coverage was determined from XPS analyses. Thirdly, an exclusive placement of Raman probe molecules (4-nitrobenzenethiol) at junctions (hot-spots) of AuNP dimers was achieved through an asymmetric functionalization approach. The orientation of asymmetric nanoparticles in dimers and the location of Raman probes were investigated using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). A linear correlation of SERS signal with hot-spot population and a SERS enhancement factor are presented. Lastly, AuNPs and AgNPs of small sizes (< 5 nm) were synthesized in water using poly(allylamine). Ligand-exchange by thiols was demonstrated by IR spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy analyses.

Design, Development, and Initial Evalution of a Terminology for Clinical Decision Support and Electronic Clinical Quality Measurement
Creators: name: Lin, Yanhua
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2016

description: When coupled with a common information model, a common terminology for clinical decision support (CDS) and electronic clinical quality measurement (eCQM) could greatly facilitate the distributed development and sharing of CDS and eCQM knowledge resources. To enable such scalable knowledge authoring and sharing, we systematically developed an extensible and standards-based terminology for CDS and eCQM in the context of the HL7 Virtual Medical Record (vMR) information model. The development of this terminology entailed three steps: (1) systematic, physician-curated concept identification from sources such as the Health Information Technology Standards Panel (HITSP) and the SNOMED-CT CORE problem list; (2) concept de-duplication leveraging the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) MetaMap and Metathesaurus; and (3) systematic concept naming using standard terminologies and heuristic algorithms. This process generated 3,046 concepts spanning 68 domains. Evaluation against representative CDS and eCQM resources revealed approximately 50-70% concept coverage, indicating the need for continued expansion of the terminology.
Communication in the Nursing Home: A Grounded Theory of Nurse-CNA Communication
Creators: name: Madden, Connie Lynn
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2016

description: Quality nursing home care is a national health concern. Projections of increasing residency rates are coupled with growing concern about nursing home staff capacity and ability to provide quality care. The Institute of Medicine Committee of the Future Health Care Workforce for Older Americans suggests that efforts are needed toward improving nursing home workforce skill. Nurses and certified nursing assistants (CNAs) comprise the majority of the nursing home workforce; CNAs provide 80% of resident care. Despite their significant role as direct caregivers, little is known about nurse-CNA interactional processes, including how they communicate. This relative lack of existing information suggested a need for better understanding of even fundamental communication processes from nurse and CNA perspectives. A grounded theory approach guided this study to gain understanding of nurse-CNA communication processes and factors that influence the processes from the perspective of nurses and CNAs when providing direct care to nursing home residents. Goffman's dramaturgical concept of front- and back-stages, supported by the premises of symbolic interactionism, provided an analytical framework for exploring nurse-CNA communication processes in the complex context of the nursing home setting. Data were obtained from observation, shadowing, and interviews of nurses and CNAs on two ~ 40-bed long-term care units in a nursing home. Systematic procedures 13 for inductive data analysis suggested that nurse-CNA communication processes were guided by four "rules of performance": (1) maintaining information flow, (2) following procedure, (3) fostering collegiality, and (4) showing respect. Nurses and CNAs communicated as opportunity arose in the midst of resident care and described their communication processes in relation to efficiency of care that was affected by the presence or absence of cooperation, initiative, and reciprocity. Role ambiguity stemmed from nurse-CNA hierarchical position associated with delegation and supervision; contextual ambiguity resulted from the dual purpose of the nursing home as a health care institution and the resident's "home." The interplay of "rules of performance" on the front- and back-stages of direct care should be considered in the development of contextually applicable policy and practice strategies that are relevant to nurses and CNAs providing care to nursing home residents.
The Impact of Computerized Provider Order Entry Implementation on Mortality and Length of Stay in a Large Academic Hospital
Creators: name: Lyons, Ann Marie
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2016

description: Computerized provider order entry (CPOE) is a component of electronic health records (EHR) that has been touted as a crucial means to support healthcare quality and efficiency. The costs of EHR implementation can be staggeringly high, and little literature exists to verify the hypothesized benefits of CPOE and EHRs. The purpose of this study, based on Coyle and Battle's adaptation of the classic Donabedian quality improvement framework, was to evaluate system-wide outcomes after CPOE implementation in a large academic setting. The specific aims were to describe the association between CPOE implementation and (1) mortality rate and (2) length of stay (LOS), controlling statistically for antecedent, structure, and process variables. The study used hierarchical linear modeling to analyze clinical and administrative data from 2.5 years before and 2.5 years after CPOE implementation. Aim 1 analysis included 104,153 hospital visits and aim 2 analysis included 89,818 visits. Two models were created for each analysis, (a) a model with individual patient care units as the unit of analysis and (b) a model with units aggregated by type. LOS decreased 0.9 days per visit in all models. Mortality decreased 1 to 4 deaths per 1000 visits, depending on the model; or 54 to 216 patient lives saved in the postimplementation period. Significant antecedents were patient demographics, insurance type, and scheduled versus emergency admission; structure variables included patient care unit, private room, and palliative care; and process variables included nursing care iv hours and the number of orders placed. Mortality models were variable by patient care unit, and strongly influenced by confounders such as rapid response team or code activation, suggesting the importance for future studies to account for those influences. CPOE was statistically associated with clinically significant improvements in the system-wide outcomes. Controlling statistically for antecedent, structure, and process variables, the analysis found that after the implementation of CPOE, there was a decrease in mortality and LOS. Future studies need to determine how CPOE implementation impacts nursing performance and how CPOE influences the effect of new physician resident arrival on patient outcomes.

description: Aluminum magnesium alloys, due to their high strength and overall corrosion resistance, are used more and more in a variety of applications, from automobiles to navy ships. The addition of magnesium greatly increases the strength of aluminum. However, at elevated temperatures beta phase particles (Al2Mg3) can precipitate along grain boundaries and lead to intergranualar corrosion and stress corrosion cracking. The corrosion of these alloys has been widely studied and the ASTM G67 standard mass loss test is used to compare the degree to which the alloy has been sensitized by the formation of beta phase particles. A simple model was developed, based on the ASTM G67 test, in order to predict the mass loss of an aluminum alloy, given several key parameters, such as beta phase thickness and continuity of the beta phase along the grain boundary.  The model was validated through SEM, TEM, and AFM imaging. This mass loss model was combined with previous work, which estimates key parameters, creating a predictive tool to allow for useful projections of service life in 5xxx aluminum alloys.

Molecular Mechanisms Controlling Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition and Cell Invasion in Development and Cancer
Creators: name: Jimenez, Laura
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2016

description: The conversion of epithelial cells into migratory and invasive mesenchymal cells has been established as a fundamental step in the metastatic cascade. In cancer cells the induction of an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) awards invasive properties that allow dissemination from the primary tumor, and promotes acquisition of stem-cell-like properties and prosurvival mechanisms that contribute to therapeutic resistance, relapse, and decreased overall survival. Identifying inhibitors that block EMT is of great therapeutic interest to prevent disseminated tumor cells and target dormant cancer stem cells. Efforts to rationally target EMT in the clinic have been impeded by our incomplete understanding of the molecular mechanisms regulating EMT in normal and cancerous cells. Here we develop a zebrafish in vivo EMT reporter for rapid screening of small molecules called Tg(snai1b:GFP), which labels snai1b-expressing cells during development undergoing EMT from the dorsal neural tube to form neural crest (NC). We identified a multi-kinase inhibitor, called TP-0903, that potently blocked EMT, migration, and differentiation of dorsal neural tube progenitors by activating retinoic acid (RA) signaling. We show for the first time that RA directly controls EMT of NC cells in vivo. Our findings designate RA as an attractive therapeutic strategy to antagonize EMT-dependent pathways and stem-cell-like iv properties to eliminate residual cancer stem cells and metastatic disease. TP-0903 was rationally designed to target AXL RTK, a key oncogenic target that promotes EMT and metastasis. In NC derived cancers like melanoma, AXL can mediate invasion and promote resistance to targeted therapies in vitro. We hypothesize AXL promotes malignant melanoma by inducing EMT of cancer cells in vivo. To test this we generated a zebrafish melanoma model overexpressing AXL. We found AXL accelerated melanocyte transformation, tumor onset, growth and invasion. Additionally, we found that AXL did not activate EMT programs in vivo, despite numerous studies implicating AXL as a driver of EMT in vitro. Nevertheless these studies specify AXL as a driver of melanoma and establish an in vivo zebrafish model of AXL dependent melanoma invasion. This preclinical model will help determine the AXL dependent mechanisms driving malignant melanoma and evaluate effective AXL inhibitors to treat melanoma patients.

Epistolary Documents in High-Medieval History-Writing
Creators: name: Bainton, Henry
Publisher: name: Interfaces: A Journal of Medieval European Literatures
Year: 2018
Subjects: history-writing; chronicles; documents; fictionality

description: This article focuses on the way history-writers in the reign of King Henry II (King of England, Duke of Normandy and of Aquitaine, and Count of Anjou, d. 1189) quoted documents in their histories. Although scholars have often identified documentary quotation as the most distinctive feature of history-writing from this period, I argue here that the practice of quoting documents has not been properly assessed from a rhetorical perspective. Focusing on epistolary documents in the histories written by Roger of Howden, Ralph de Diceto and Stephen of Rouen, I suggest that scholarship on these texts has distinguished between 'document' and 'narrative' too sharply. My argument, rather, is that epistolary documents functioned as narrative intertexts; they were not simply truth claims deployed to authenticate a history-writer’s own narrative. The corollary to this is that scholarship on these texts needs to negotiate the potentially fictive nature of documentary intertexts, just as it has long negotiated the potentially fictive nature of the historiographical discourse that frames them.

Comparison of the performance of Ute Indian and white children on verbal and non-verbal tests
Creators: name: Shults, Elsie S.
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2016
Subjects: Ute Children - Intelligence testing
Children - Intelligence testing

description: As the American Indian has been crowded out of the thousands of acres required by his primitive methods of wresting a living from the earth, 1 t has gradually become apparent even to the Indian that he must adapt to the white man's culture or be gradually extinguished. Trends of the last several decades in Federal Indian policy are all away from the old isolation or wardship and toward integration and assimilation of the tribal members as full- fledged citizens of the United States. In many cases tribes have formed tribal councils which assume the role of protectors of the economic and social interests of the tribal members. In other tribes where the Indians are more educated, acculturated and competent, this stage has not been deemed necessary, and each I ndian is already assuming bis individual responsibilities as an independent citizen.
Measuring the Measuring Rod: Bible and Parabiblical Texts within the History of Medieval Literature
Creators: name: Doležalová, Lucie
Publisher: name: Interfaces: A Journal of Medieval European Literatures
Year: 2018
Subjects: biblical; parabiblical; fiction

description: In spite of the acknowledged crucial role it had in forming medieval written culture, the Bible and a wide-range of parabiblical texts still remain largely ignored by histories of medieval literatures. The reason for this striking omission of an important group of medieval texts from the 'canonical' narratives is, as I argue, the strong bias in favour of national, secular, fictional, and original texts which shapes literary studies – an inheritance from the nineteenth-century nationalising approaches discussed in the first issue of the Interfaces journal. Of course, the discipline of literary studies and therefore selection, hierarchization, and interpretation are complex social, cultural and political processes where almost anything is possible. It is the environment, the interpretive community, in which the interpretation takes place that has a decisive role. And that, too, is constantly being transformed. Thus, there are no final categories and answers because as long as there are interpretive communities, meanings are generated and operate in new ways. That is why the present discussion does not aim to claim that many of the parabiblical texts are literature and should have been included in the canon of medieval literature. Rather, I examine what the nineteenth-century notion of canon did to these texts and how the current questioning and substantial reshaping of notions of canon can transform our understanding of parabiblical texts.

Dispositional mindfulness and stress resilience: self-regulatory capacity, affective stability, and presleep arousal in daily life
Creators: name: Rau, Holly Kristen
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2016
Subjects: ecological validity
emotion
mindfulness
positive psychology
sleep
stress

description: Mindfulness training appears to promote healthy and adaptive functioning by enhancing self-regulatory capacity and stress resilience.  Less is known about whether dispositional mindfulness (DM) is similarly associated with self-regulatory capacity and stress resilience.  Fifty-six healthy adults completed a self-report DM questionnaire and performance-based measures of executive function (EF) prior to daily life experience sampling of affect, self-regulation, presleep arousal, and sleep quality.  DM was not associated with objective measures of EF but was significantly associated with self-reported cognitive, emotional, and behavioral self-regulation.  Further, although DM was not associated with average affect levels (i.e., across positive/negative valence, low/high arousal domains), dispositionally high-mindful individuals exhibited less extreme changes in negative/low arousal affect (e.g., sad, bored) and negative/high arousal affect (e.g., stressed, angry) and evidenced less variability in positive/low arousal affect (e.g., relaxed, serene).  Higher DM was also associated with lower presleep arousal and higher sleep quality.  At the facet-level, mindful awareness was associated with daily self-reported EF and predicted cognitive presleep arousal and sleep quality; conversely, mindful acceptance was associated with greater stability across negatively valenced and low arousal affect states, and more strongly predicted somatic presleep arousal.  Results indicate that mindful awareness and mindful acceptance, two distinct yet complementary processes, appear uniquely associated with components of self-regulation.
The Peripheral Centre: Writing History on the Western 'Fringe'
Creators: name: Ní Mhaonaigh, Máire
Publisher: name: Interfaces: A Journal of Medieval European Literatures
Year: 2018
Subjects: Historiography; Marianus Scotus; The Book of Leinster

description: History-writing has a central place in the rich, extensive literature of medieval Ireland and in depicting their past, learned authors employed their own vernacular creatively and confidently. The biblical and classical frameworks within which they constructed Ireland's story, as well as their modes of expression reflect those of their European contemporaries, yet this corpus of texts is rarely considered when the writing of history in the early and central Middle Ages is explored. Focussing on narratives in their manuscript context, this article will situate medieval Irish historical writing within the broader Latinate literary culture of which it formed an integral part. In so doing, the intellectual heritage of scholars such as Marianus Scotus whose formative education was in Ireland will be illuminated, and the debt to the Irish strand in their cultural makeup assessed. Moreover, the relative linguistic harmony in Irish learned circles in which Latin and vernacular written media were interwoven in a mutually beneficial embrace can help better inform our understanding of cross-cultural European elite interaction at the time.

Mechanisms of Immune Evasion Mediated by HIV-1 VPU
Creators: name: Ramirez, Peter William
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2016

description: Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1), the causative agent of AIDS, encodes four proteins (Nef, Vif, Vpr and Vpu) that have evolved specific roles in promoting efficient viral replication and dissemination. A key attribute of these viral factors is their ability to interfere with multiple host defense mechanisms through one of two ways: manipulation of the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) or altered intracellular protein trafficking. In particular, Vpu is a small integral membrane protein that is expressed late in the viral life cycle and found only within HIV-1 and some related simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) isolates. Vpu antagonizes multiple cellular targets that are involved in innate and adaptive immunity, including the restriction factor BST-2, a family member of cellular "intrinsic" proteins that serve to restrict viral replication immediately following viral infection. In this work, we show that Vpu downregulates the chemokine receptor CCR7 on the surface of HIV-1-infected primary CD4+ T cells by sequestering the protein in a perinuclear compartment (the trans-Golgi Network: TGN). This compromises the migratory potential of T cells in a CCR7-dependent manner and may have major implications in HIV-1 pathogenesis. Additionally, we clarify the mechanisms by which Vpu relies on cullin-RING Ligases (CRLs), one of the largest classes of E3 Ubiquitin Ligases within the UPS, to downregulate host proteins from the cell surface. Through the use of a neddylation iv inhibitor, a post-translational modification necessary for CRL activity, we establish that Vpu-mediated BST-2, CCR7 and Natural T and B cell antigen (NTB-A) downregulation is CRL-independent. This provides further support that Vpu is a multifunctional accessory protein that has evolved several ways to interfere with its cellular targets.
La edición del libro sagrado: el 'paradigma alejandrino' de Homero al Shahnameh
Creators: name: Varillas Sánchez, Isabel
Publisher: name: Interfaces: A Journal of Medieval European Literatures
Year: 2018
Subjects: Homeric Poems; Peisistratus; Septuagint; Qur'an; Shahnameh

description: One of the most significant current discussions in World Literature is the dating of the Homeric poems. Although the Iliad and Odyssey are traditionally dated to the eighth century BCE, there are many testimonies since the Greek Archaic period connecting the editing of these texts with later times and authors, primarily with Peisistratus, the tyrant of Athens. Some sources add that Peisistratus was helped by a group of seventy or seventy-two wise men in order to accomplish this goal. The pattern of a 'powerful king' who calls together a group of seventy or seventy-two wise men to carry out a philological work, such as an edition or a translation, reminds us of the story of the Letter of Aristeas, in which Ptolemy II Philadelphus gathered in Alexandria the same number of wise men to translate the Jewish Torah into Greek. The similarity between the two accounts seems to indicate that there is a contamination between the process of editing two of the most important texts bodies of Western culture: the Homeric poems and the Bible. The aim of this paper is to go further into this theory, in an attempt to establish which of the two comes first, and to see if the pattern is traceable in other cultures with a foundational book, such as the Qur´an, the Persian Shahnameh, and Avesta.
