Splitting the sḏm.n⸗f? A Discussion of Written Forms in Coffin Texts: Part 2

The paper discusses the written forms of II.red in Coffin Texts adduced by Wolfgang Schenkel in support of his hypothesis of two morphologically distinct forms of the sḏm.n⸗f . Also examined are the case of ult.n non-II.red , which had only a secondary role in Schenkel’s original proposal, and the c...

Descrizione
Riepilogo:The paper discusses the written forms of II.red in Coffin Texts adduced by Wolfgang Schenkel in support of his hypothesis of two morphologically distinct forms of the sḏm.n⸗f . Also examined are the case of ult.n non-II.red , which had only a secondary role in Schenkel’s original proposal, and the case of the high-frequency verb wnn , which is special. The conclusion is that none of these written forms supports the hypothesis of two distinct forms of the sḏm.n⸗f , just as none contradicts it. In the course of the argument, various issues of broader interest are touched upon: the representation of verbal morphology in writing, the individual verbs (notably ngigi/ngg “cackle,” originally a N-stem based on an onomatopoietic segment), the morphology of wnn , and aspects of the dynamics of textual variation in Coffin Texts (notably the extraordinarily complex case afforded by CT I 73c–74f; Spell 24).
