‡ Plural form of the singular pericope, from the Greek περί "peri" - around and κοπή "cope" - cut; an extract or a selection from a book, a set of verses that forms one coherent thought, a narrative fragment, or a section of text that stands alone.
Δ Simultaneously alias and trajectory, Pericopae frames the ongoing and perpetual activity of cultural production as inherent personal process analogous to geological diagenesis - continuously ingesting and transforming the sedimentary remnants of daily life as Acta Diurna: Artifact or Reliquary.
◊ Represented in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) as /ˈpɛri ˌkoʊpeɪ/, The stressed syllable /pɛr/ uses the mid-front vowel [ɛ] as in red, followed by the unstressed [i] as in happy. The second part /ˌkoʊpeɪ/ corresponds to “copae,” with the secondary stress /koʊ/ using the diphthong [oʊ] as in go, followed by /peɪ/ which uses the diphthong [eɪ] as in say. This notation captures intentional variation of sound structure and reflects the “ae” ending pronounced with the /eɪ/ vowel quality, as in aerobic or day, rather than the established pronunciation of the diphthong ae, which is typically rendered as /iː/ as in aegis (/ˈiːdʒɪs/) or /æ/ as in aesthetic (/æsˈθɛtɪk/), depending on historical or regional usage.
