Salvation and Globalization in the Early Jesuit Missions
This is the first truly global study of the Society of Jesus's early missions. Up to now historians have treated the early-modern Catholic missionary project as a disjointed collection of regional missions rather than as a single world-encompassing example of religious globalization. Luke Clossey shows how the vast distances separating missions led to logistical problems of transportation and communication incompatible with traditional views of the Society as a tightly centralized military machine. In fact, connections unmediated by Rome sprung up between the missions throughout the seventeenth century. He follows trails of personnel, money, relics and information between missions in seventeenth-century China, Germany and Mexico, and explores how Jesuits understood space and time and visualized universal mission and salvation. This pioneering study demonstrates that a global perspective is essential to understanding the Jesuits and will be required reading for historians of Catholicism and the early-modern world.
Complex Words, Causatives, Verbal Periphrases and the Gerund
The monograph focuses on the typological differences between the four most widely spoken Romance languages (Spanish, Portuguese, French and Italian) and Czech. Utilizing data from InterCorp, the parallel corpus project of the Czech National Corpus, the book analyses various categories (expression of potential non-volitional participation, iterativity, causation, beginning of an action and adverbial subordination) to discover differences and similarities between Czech and the Romance languages. Due to the massive amount of data mined, as well as the high number of languages examined, the monograph presents general and individual typological features of the four Romance languages and Czech that often exceed what has previously been accepted in the field of comparative linguistics.

Os verbos modais poder e dever
V této knize jsou uvedeny některé úvahy o netypickém chování sloves „poder“ a „dever“ v oblasti právního jazyka. V rámci analýzy dvou dominantních textových typologií – oblasti samotného práva a oblasti soudních rozsudků – je popsán potenciál výkladu těchto sloves vzhledem k některým jejich výskytům, přičemž cílem je zamyslet se nad operativními variacemi tohoto modálu.
The Typology and Dialectology of Romani
Contributions to this collection focus on the unity and diversity of the language of the Roma (Gypsies), the only Indic language spoken exclusively in Europe. Properties discussed include the distinct inflectional and derivational patterns applied to Asian and European lexical layers, the distribution of inflectional, agglutinative, and analytic formation among syntactic categories, regularities in the ongoing shift from inflectional to analytic case formation, suppletion, aspects of syntactic convergence, and patterns of morphological transitivization and de-transitivization (causatives and passives). These phenomena are considered in the light of contemporary discussions on language univer...
Perifrastické konstrukce v portugalštině
Cílem práce je podat přehled perifrastických konstrukcí s významem fázovosti v současné evropské portugalštině. Při jejich klasifikaci jsme vycházeli z modelu vytvořeného pro španělštinu Bohumilem Zavadilem, jenž navazuje na koncepci E. Coseria a Nelsona Cartageny. Opisné vazby dělíme podle povahovědějového významu do tří základních skupin: na perifráze s významem ingresivním, durativním a terminativním. Celkem jsme vyhledali a podle významu zařadili 60 různých slovesných perifrází. Pro určení významu celé konstrukce ve třeba posuzovat širší kontext, neboť některé perifráze mohou mít více významů.
