The present volume includes 19 studies on topics related to the tradition and transmission of the biblical text in various periods and geographical areas. The volume is dedicated to Professor Eugen Munteanu, corresponding member of the Romanian Academy, Professor Emeritus of "Alexandru Ioan Cuza" University of Iasi, by colleagues, friends and disciples, on the occasion of his 70th anniversary (2023). Ten of these studies focus on the crystallisation of various traditions of the biblical text and its transmission through translation: the reception of the reviewed biblical text by the Church Fathers; classical language versions and the emergence of the vernacular; the consolidation of national...
This book examines the Romanian mihi est construction (Mi-e foame/frică, me.dat = is hunger/fear ‘I am hungry/ afraid’). While it disappeared from all other Romance languages to be replaced with a habeo structure, the mihi est pattern is in Romanian the most common way of expressing psychological or physiological states. By means of synchronic and diachronic corpus studies, the book investigates the status of the core arguments of the mihi est structure, i.e. the dative experiencer and the nominative state noun, as well as its evolution throughout the centuries. The data analysis reveals that the dative experiencer syntactically behaves like nominative subjects, whereas the state noun shows predicate behavior. As for the evolution of the mihi est structure, the analysis shows a certain tendency toward innovation, since in present-day Romanian it can coerce nouns coming from other semantic fields into the construction’s psychological or physiological interpretation. Could this be another unique trait of Romanian, which causes it to seemingly go against the tendency of most Romance languages toward canonical marking of core arguments?
The ninth campaign of the Cross-Language Evaluation Forum (CLEF) for European languages was held from January to September 2008. There were seven main eval- tion tracks in CLEF 2008 plus two pilot tasks. The aim, as usual, was to test the p- formance of a wide range of multilingual information access (MLIA) systems or s- tem components. This year, 100 groups, mainly but not only from academia, parti- pated in the campaign. Most of the groups were from Europe but there was also a good contingent from North America and Asia plus a few participants from South America and Africa. Full details regarding the design of the tracks, the methodologies used for evaluation, and the results obtained by t...
The tenth campaign of the Cross Language Evaluation Forum (CLEF) for European languages was held from January to September 2009. There were eight main eval- tion tracks in CLEF 2009 plus a pilot task. The aim, as usual, was to test the perfo- ance of a wide range of multilingual information access (MLIA) systems or system components. This year, about 150 groups, mainly but not only from academia, reg- tered to participate in the campaign. Most of the groups were from Europe but there was also a good contingent from North America and Asia. The results were presented at a two-and-a-half day workshop held in Corfu, Greece, September 30 to October 2, 2009, in conjunction with the European Conference on Digital Libraries. The workshop, attended by 160 researchers and system developers, provided the opportunity for all the groups that had participated in the evaluation campaign to get together, compare approaches and exchange ideas.
Volumul de față este dedicat, așa cum spune și titlul, lingvistei, profesoarei, colegei și prietenei Rodica Zafiu, personalitate și promotoare a școlii bucureștene de lingvistică, vreme de mai bine de un deceniu directoare a Departamentului de lingvistică a Facultății de Litere, autoare a unor cărți de referință și a numeroase studii de specialitate cu deschidere internațională, caracterizate, toate, prin cercetare minuțioasă, sincronică și diacronică, prin racordare la ultimele studii în domeniu și, mai ales, printr-o optimistă obiectivitate. Diversitatea domeniilor pe care le cuprinde acest volum reflectă diversitatea preocupărilor științifice ale sărbătoritei, iar numărul mare de autori și contribuții arată aprecierea, prietenia și recunoștința pe care le avem cu toții pentru omul de carte Rodica Zafiu, model științific și uman de echilibru și de înțelegere rafinată a mecanismelor de funcționare a limbii, în evoluția și complexitatea lor.
