The Oxford Handbook of Names and Naming

In this handbook, scholars from around the world offer an up-to-date account of the state of the art in different areas of onomastics, in a format that is both useful to specialists in related fields and accessible to the general reader. Since Ancient Greece, names have been regarded as central to the study of language, and this has continued to be a major theme of both philosophical and linguistic enquiry throughout the history of Western thought. The investigation of name origins is more recent, as is the study of names in literature. Relatively new is the study of names in society, which draws on techniques from sociolinguistics and has gradually been gathering momentum over the last few ...

Bibliographie Linguistique de L'annee 1999

Setting out the historical national and religious characteristics of the Italians as they impact on the integration within the European Union, this study makes note of the two characteristics that have an adverse effect on Italian national identity: cleavages between north and south and the dominant role of family. It discusses how for Italians family loyalty is stronger than any other allegiance, including feelings towards their country, their nation, or the EU. Due to such subnational allegiances and values, this book notes that Italian civic society is weaker and engagement at the grass roots is less robust than one finds in other democracies, leaving politics in Italy largely in the hands of political parties. The work concludes by noting that EU membership, however, provides no magic bullet for Italy: it cannot change internal cleavages, the Italian worldview, and family values or the country’s mafia-dominated power matrix, and as a result, the underlying absence of fidelity to a shared polity—Italian or European—leave the country as ungovernable as ever.

Olší, Nusperg, Růžodol

Publikace si klade za cíl shromáždit česká, moravská a slezská místní jména, jež odrážejí názvy stromů, keřů a polokeřů. Stromy a keře, zejména ty samostatně rostoucí, přitahují pozornost, a tak odnepaměti sloužily k určení polohy, směru či k orientaci v terénu. Právě místa nazvaná podle dřevin jsou v knize mapována a s nimi související lokality obcí jsou souhrnně zaneseny do veřejných online map, které nabízejí data k dalšímu použití. Zaznamenaná data je ale třeba interpretovat obezřetně, neboť vlastní jména se při užívání chovají poměrně specificky. Jejich úkolem není zprostředkovat obraz minulé ani současné krajiny, mohou však napovědět minulý a současný vztah obyvatel k ní.

Kleinere Schriften, Bd. 5

Mit dem fünften Band der Kleineren Schriften setzen Hans-Diether Grohmann und Robert Langhanke die Herausgabe der sprachwissenschaftlichen Aufsätze von Friedhelm Debus fort. Der in sich selbstständige Folgeband stellt einen Ausschnitt aus dem Werk des Verfassers dar, das als repräsentativ für sein Schaffen der letzten zehn Jahre angesehen werden darf. Der fünfte Band der Kleineren Schriften enthält, neben einigen wenigen Beiträgen zu verschiedenen Themen, ausschließlich Beiträge zum Forschungsschwerpunkt des Jubilars: zur Onomastik. Sie reichen von Artikeln zu Familiennamen, Flurnamen, Hausnamen bis hin zu Heiligennamen und hier besonders der große Beitrag zur „Biblischen Elisabeth und Elisabeth von Thüringen“. Im Reformationsjahr darf ein aktueller Bezug nicht fehlen, eine Einlassung zu Luther, deren Fazit lautet: „Luther hat durch seine unerschütterliche Glaubensgewissheit und durch sein geradezu unbändiges Sendungsbewusstsein die reformatorische Epoche über Deutschland hinaus bestimmt und eben auch die deutsche Sprache und Literatur wesentlich geprägt.“ (S. 306)
