Unconventional Anthroponyms
Unconventional Anthroponyms: Formation Patterns and Discursive Function continues a series of collective volumes comprising studies on onomastics, edited by Oliviu Felecan with Cambridge Scholars Publishing. Previous titles in this series include Name and Naming: Synchronic and Diachronic Perspectives (2012) and Onomastics in Contemporary Public Space (2013, co-edited with Alina Bugheşiu).

Manual of Catalan Linguistics
This manual is intended to fill a gap in the area of Romance studies. There is no introduction available so far that broadly covers the field of Catalan linguistics, neither in Catalan nor in any other language. The work deals with the language spoken in Catalonia and Andorra, the Balearic Islands, the region of Valencia, Northern Catalonia and the town of l'Alguer in Sardinia. Besides introducing the ideologies of language and nation and the history of Catalan linguistics, the manual is divided into separate parts embracing the description – grammar, lexicon, variation and varieties – and the history of the language since the early medieval period to the present day. It also covers its current social and political situation in the new local and global contexts. The main emphasis is placed on modern Catalan. The manual is designed as a companion for students of Catalan, while also introducing specialists of other languages into this field, in particular scholars of Romance languages.

Los secretos de los manuscritos del Mar Muerto
En el valle de Qumr�n, un joven bedu�no llamado Mohammed edh-Dhib descubre, guiado por el azar, en una gruta a un kil�metro del Mar Muerto, un considerable n�mero de pergaminos antiguos. Estamos en 1947, y este descubrimiento va a trastornar nuestro conocimiento de los textos b�blicos, ya que los pergaminos en cuesti�n son los m�s antiguos manuscritos del Antiguo Testamento nunca encontrados. Dominique Lormier, historiador, nos cuenta en este libro la fabulosa historia de los manuscritos de Qumr�n. Nos proporciona un relato completo, basado en un exhaustivo trabajo de investigaci�n, del incre�ble descubrimiento de los pergaminos. Analiza el contenido de los textos y sus sucesivos descifrados realizados por los mayores especialistas en historia de las religiones. Finalmente, se une a las pol�micas y controversias, a veces muy vivas, que siguieron a este descubrimiento, en particular las nuevas hip�tesis emitidas referentes a la figura hist�rica de Jes�s.
