Adam Benkato and I have launched Berkeley Working Papers in Middle Iranian Philology. We will publish short & longer articles or research reports on the philology and epigraphy of Middle Iranian languages (Middle Persian, #Parthian, #Bactrian, #Sogdian, #Chorasmian, #Khotanese). We warmly invite our colleagues to contribute to the #journal.
We start issue 0 with a manifesto where I show a possible direction for the journal by discussing #Nietzsche’s views on #philology.
