This book reviews the historical, botanical, zoological, and iconographic evidence related to the Voynich Manuscript. Tentative assignment of the Voynichese symbols also provides a key to decipherment based on Mesoamerican languages. Richly illustrated with photographs, illustrations, and maps.

The sixth-century theological controversy over the 'Three Chapters', which centred on the nature of Christ, provoked one of the most serious and long-lived religious schisms of the early Middle Ages. The fault lines ran not only between the Byzantine imperial court and the papacy, but between Rome and the churches in the former western empire's successor states. In Italy, the schism endured into the seventh century, and the repercussions were felt long thereafter. Though rooted in the complexities ...

This article examines the regulatory activity performed by the Codex Alimentarius Commission (Commission), which is the international body responsible for setting food standards and which has been the object of growing attention by lawyers. The main problem is that Codex standards, although they are not binding, strip national regulators of their discretion. This occurs because the Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures (SPS Agreement) and the Agreement on Technical Barriers ...

What does the making of a trans-national information infrastructure in the Justice domain entail? How is it designed? How is it implemented? The analysis of the e-CODEX, a large-scale pilot project to improve cross-border legal communication in the EU, sheds some light upon these questions. The purpose of e-CODEX is not just creating a technical system supporting transborder data exchange, but developing a functioning infrastructure that supports a legally valid, electronically mediated judicial ...

CODEX and ESPRESSO are concepts for ultra-stable, high-resolution spectrographs at the E-ELT and VLT, respectively. Both instruments are well motivated by distinct sets of science drivers. However, ESPRESSO will also be a stepping stone towards CODEX both in a scientific as well as in a technical sense. Here we discuss this role of ESPRESSO with respect to one of the most exciting CODEX science cases, i.e. the dynamical determination of the cosmic expansion history.

This book brings together a group of leading experts on the political history of Germany and the medieval Empire from the Carolingian period to the end of the Middle Ages. Its purpose is to introduce and analyze key concepts in the study of medieval political culture. The representation of power by means of texts, buildings and images is a theme which has long interested historians. However, recent debates and methodological insights have fundamentally altered the way this subject is perceived, ...

We define the notion of an arithmetic codex (or codex, for short), and as a special case, arithmetic secret sharing. This notion encompasses as well as generalizes, in a single mathematical framework, all known types of specialized secret sharing schemes from the area of secure multi-party computation, i.e., the so-called (strongly) multiplicative linear secret sharing schemes. These schemes were first studied as an abstract primitive by Cramer, Damgård, and Maurer in the late 1990s. They showed that ...

In this paper we explore the potential benefits and drawbacks of the OpenAI Codex code completion model on teaching and learning in Industry 4.0 oriented undergraduate engineering programs. Two sets of test are performed with the model: the first investigates the Codex model's ability to generate code in Python's main programming paradigms, and the second focuses on a programming exercise typical for an undergraduate course in automation and controls. Our results show that, although Codex is very ...

The <i>Disputationes in libros De anima</i>, contained in the Paris Codex B.N. lat. 16627, were recorded for centuries under the name Cesare Cremonini. This study shows the <i>Disputationes</i> to be a transcript of a lecture held by the Jesuit Nicolaus Baldelli (1573-1655) and so, on the basis of the only known manuscript, makes accessible a text instructive for the standard and method of the Aristoteles interpretation pursued at the Collegium Romanum during the early 17th century. ...

This paper describes the deployment of innovative digitisation methods and new web technologies to reunify the oldest Bible – the Codex Sinaiticus – and to make it available to wider public. The conception of the website development has begun in late 2006 and the first stage of the development will allow free access to the website of this eminent part of the cultural heritage in 2008, which only has been possible through the close collaboration between international partners.

The SPS Agreement has formally elevated the importance of Codex Alimentarius as a reference point for domestic food regulations. However, the actual influence of this standard-setting body on national policy-making has not been closely examined. This chapter seeks to enrich understanding of the substantive impact of transnational food governance by tracing the uptake of international standards across domestic legislation worldwide. It first draws on the work of international relations scholars to ...

In this chapter, we contextualise an ethical codex introduced in the Danish Central Administration. As a management tool, the codex is intended to curb a mounting distrust induced by a number of political-administrative scandals. This is attempted via a revitalisation of classical bureaucratic duties. At the same time, the codex's attempt at restoring trust is challenged by a number of obstacles. Launching our exploration from an ethos of office-perspective, we contextualise the codex in three dimensions: ...

Simplification of judicial procedures management and the possibility to file and exchange them between European Member States are essential pre-conditions to increase cross-border relations in a pan-European e-Justice area. In this paper an overview of the e-Delivery platform architecture, developed by the e-CODEX project, as well as the semantic solution conceived to transmit business documents within a scenario characterized by different languages and different legal systems, are described.

This book is devoted to the study of medieval manuscripts of a technical nature that provide information about manual activities such as textile industry, metallurgy, painting and illumination. The high level of specialization of these crafts involved the need to rely on recipe books, handbooks and treatises. These texts illustrate the various aspects of transmission and dissemination of technical knowledge as well as the written culture of medieval craftsmen.
