U povijestima hrvatske književnosti posebno mjesto pripada fra Matiji Divkoviću (1563–1631), utemeljitelju franjevačke i bosanskohercegovačke književnosti, autoru prvih tiskanih knjiga na narodnom jeziku i ujedno prvih djela na području današnje Bosne i Hercegovine ostvarenih što kavskom stilizacijom hrvatskoga književnog jezika. Divković svoja prva djela Nauk krstjanskiza narod slovinski (tzv. veliki Nauk) i Sto čudesa aliti zlamen’jablažene i slavne Bogorodice, Divice Marije objavljuje u Veneciji 1611. u tiskari Pietra M. Bertana i to na bosančici za koju jesam osmišljavao grafijska rješenja i lijevao slova. Svoje tiskarsko iskustvo Divković primjenjuje i pet godina kasnije kada ponovno lijeva slova i kod istog tiskara 1616. objavljuje još dva djela kojasu doživjela znatno veću popularnost: Besjede svrhu evanđel’ja nedjeljnijeh priko svega godišta (2. izdanje 1704) i Nauk krstjanskis mnozijemi stvari duhovnijemi i vele bogoljubnijemi (tzv.mali Nauk) koji je do 1738. godine objavljen dvadesetak puta i to u dvije inačice: opsežnoj i kratkoj.

One of the parts of linguistics is the science of words called lexicology. Lexicology is the part of linguistics which studies words. This includes their nature and function as symbols, their meaning, the relationship of their meaning to epistemology in general, and the rules of their composition from smaller elements. Lexicological issues are discussed and elucidated in general manuals and in specific scientific developments, and their results find a generalization and practical application in dictionaries, i.e. in lexicography. This lexicon is claimed to be a practical complement to the theoretical formulations of lexicology and corrective sort of data in lexicography, where the etymological reference is rarely comprehensive and not always reliable. In the book, in the form of 357 dictionary articles and with the apparatus of the lexicological categories in front of the reader, many specific questions related to the origin and history of some of the words in the Bulgarian language are discussed. The explanatory notes draw information from the achievements of three other linguistic areas: etymology, semantics and word formation.

With the series "Bulgarian Grammar Literature of the 20th Century", East-West publishing house aims to familiarize the Bulgarian reader with the outstanding contribution of prominent Bulgarian linguists in the development and formation of our literary linguistic norms in the 20th century, as well as in the development of Bulgarian linguistic science in general. All the editions included in here have been out of print long ago or difficult to find bibliographically. The first two grammars in the series will be phototype editions. This will enable Bulgarian specialists-linguists to look into the history of the development of the Bulgarian grammar literature from the beginning of the 20th century, which predetermined the further development of Bulgarian and general linguistics, showed its valuable contribution to our national cultural treasure.

Images in Words. Lexical Iconicity of the Serbian Language in the Context of Slavic Mythology: Metaphors of Life and Dead is the first study of the relationship between lexical iconicity and the linguistic world picture in the Serbian language. The research is based on the premises that language is a specific representation of the inner form of thinking, which is indicative of a particular world-view; that semantic systems change in time, but in that passage from complex to categorical thinking the traces of complex thinking stay preserved in lexical iconicity and reveal themselves in the articulation of repressed semantic components in the given context; that not only metaphor and metonymy play an important role in the transformations of semantic systems as mechanisms of understanding and transposing ideas from one field of knowledge to another, but also iconicity and the existence of a number of universal imaginative schemes.

This work is devoted to the translations of the New Testament by Szymon Budny – an eminent sixteenth-century Polish writer, and outstanding linguist and biblical scholar of the Reformation. At first a Calvinist, Budny then became an Arian activist. The book's its purpose is to describe the changing progression taking place in the three editions of Budny’s translations of the New Testament from 1570, 1572 and 1574. To this end, I perform a philological analysis of these texts in comparison to other biblical Polish translations of the 16th century (mainly to the Calvinist Brest Bible of 1563 and to the 1568 New Testament, which was modelled on it) as well as to Greek and Latin texts. The dynamic process of shaping the changes in succeeding translations of the New Testament, which Budny constantly improved and perfected, is most evident in his critical edition of the New Testament from 1574. Here, the author was able to present the results of his search for the authentic, i.e. correct and error-free, original text, a search which he based on multiple sources. He also expressed his position regarding the method of translation and theological interpretation (which corresponded to his confession).

The book deals with changes in words meanings – and especially, the regularities therein – as exemplified by selected Proto-Slavic-derived adjectives denoting human traits, whose semantic development has been analysed since their emergence in the Proto-Slavic period until today. The observed regularities served as the basis for an outline dictionary of semantic motivations, which might be useful when considering etymologies of other (not just Slavic) words from this conceptual field. The book features an extensive theoretical introduction, discussing: the rules of establishing meanings in a proto-language, works devoted to semantic reconstruction of languages, and parallels in semantic development.

The volume constitutes the gleanings of the 1st Congress of the Historians of (a) Language which was held in Katowice. The purpose of this scholarly meeting was to present the scholarly accomplishments of historical linguistics which were achieved heretofore and to present the most important research plans of the discipline. Almost 150 scholars who represent this field participated in the Congress. The participants engaged various themes which arranged themselves in the following subject blocks: I. The methodological dilemmas of modern diachronic linguistics II. Historical-linguistic research and the universal problems of linguistics III. The sources which are used in diachronic research IV. Lexicology and lexicography V. The regional Polish language and the dialects VI. Communication. Genology. Stylistics VII. The historical-linguistic knowledge in university education The volume features a very important supplement in the form of a transcript and a report of two panel discussions which focused on the following problems: 1. “The research and methodological challenges of historical linguistics”; 2. “The teaching-related tasks of historians in reference to the national communicative community in the past and in the present”. The opinions of the representatives of the scholarly community about the position of diachronic linguistics in linguistic research, the opinions about the fundamental problems and dilemmas are certainly relevant to all people who are interested in the progress of the research in (a) language. The value of the present volume is further enhanced by the last part which is devoted to the events which celebrated the conferring of the name of a distinguished linguist, Irena Bajerowa, to the Institute of the Polish Language of the University of Silesia. The opinions of the Friends, Family Members and the Students which were preserved represent the scholarly and, at the same time, the cordial nature of this significant event.

This book sets out to analyze how the idea of the numeral developed in Russian grammars over the course of the 18th and 19th centuries. In the first works on grammar, the numeral was not treated as a separate part of speech. Some scholars identified numerals with adjectives, others viewed them as a group of words the meanings of which are associated with number and which belong to one of two basic types of the name (i.e., nouns and adjectives), while yet others saw in numerals a separate, third type of the name. Later on, when nouns and adjectives were no longer considered as subtypes of one part of speech (the name), many scholars still did not regard numerals as a separate part of speech but identified them with, e.g., adjectives. In terms of composition, the class of numerals was represented differently by different authors but it always encompassed the words “три”, “пять” etc. (so-called definite cardinal numerals) and usually the words “третий”, “пятый” etc. (ordinal numerals).

The monograph deals with the history of treatment that receive lexical units of Gypsy origin in Spanish monolingual dictionaries, especially in the editions of the normative Spanish Royal Academy dictionary of the Spanish language. The issue is being studied from the quantitative as well as qualitative point of view, i.e. the evolution of definitions, lexicographical marcs and etymological notes. Special attention is paid to the evolution of their treatment in the microstructure. The results from Spanish Royal Academy dictionary are then compared with the treatment that receive these words in the dictionary of contemporary Spanish by Manuel Seco et al.

It appears that literary work possesses eternal temporal validity due to its autonomous aesthetic value, whereas criticism provides points of view having temporary and transitory significance. Despite such claims, the vector of methodology in our series of books, dealing with the history of English literature, relies on Viktor Shklovsky, T. S. Eliot, Mikhail Bakhtin, and especially Yuri Tynyanov, whose main reasoning would be that literature is a system of dominant, central and peripheral, marginalized elements – to us, “tradition” (centre) versus “innovation” (margin) engaged in a “battle” for supremacy, demarginalization, and the right to form a new literary system – and the development or historical advancement of literature is the substitution of systems. Roman Jakobson and French structuralism, on the whole, later Linda Hutcheon, with her “system” and “constant”, and Bran Nicol with the “dominant”, to say nothing about Itamar Even-Zohar and his theory of polysystem, to a certain extent Julia Kristeva, and even Homi Bhabha – as well as our humble contribution, by means of the books in the present series, we would like to believe – maintain Tynyanov’s line of thinking and concepts alive, which have developed and emerged nowadays more like a kind of “neo-formalism”.

This monograph presents a detailed analysis of word order behaviour of possessive pronouns in Old Czech noun phrase. This is a phenomenon that has not been systematically studied in Czech paleo-bohemistics yet. The data analysed in this book come from Old Czech prose written approximately between the mid-fourteenth century and the end of the fifteenth century.

Međunarodni naučni skup “Leksikografski postupak u različitim tipovima referentnih djela” održan je u Sarajevu 27–28. maja 2022. godine. Organizator skupa bio je Centar za leksikologiju i leksikografiju Odjeljenja humanističkih nauka u saradnji s Federalnim ministarstvom obrazovanja i nauke, a domaćin Akademija nauka i umjetnosti Bosne i Hercegovine. Skup je otvorio akademik Muris Čičić, predsjednik ANUBiH-a. Zbog pandemije koronavirusa Organizacioni odbor odlučio se za hibridno odvijanje skupa: uživo i onlajn. U radu skupa sudjelovali su lingvisti iz Bosne i Hercegovine, Bugarske, Crne Gore, Poljske, Rusije, SAD-a, Slovenije i Srbije. Podneseni referati i plodna diskusija pokazali su savremeno stanje i dostignuća leksikološko-leksikografskih istraživanja u Bosni i Hercegovini, srednjojužnoslavenskom i drugim (južno)slavenskim jezicima i šire. U ovom zborniku objavljuju se radovi koje su autori blagovremeno dostavili Organizacionom odboru. Prilozi obrađuju različite teme u referentnim djelima i korpusima. Iz raznih uglova i koristeći različite metode propituju jezičku prošlost i sadašnjost, dijalekatsku i terminološku leksiku, savremene opisne i specijalne jednojezičke i dvojezičke rječnike te enciklopedije. Prilozi nisu grupirani tematski; nižu se abecednim redom prema prezimenima autora. U vrijeme održavanja skupa upriličeno je gostujuće predavanje prof. dr. Danka Šipke (Arizona, SAD) o temi “Geografija riječi”. Zbornik okončava tekstom tog predavanja. Zahvaljujemo autoricama i autorima priloga, recenzentici i recenzentu te svima koji su pomogli u organizaciji skupa i izdavanju zbornika. Nadamo se da će zbornik naći svoje čitaoce među lingvistima, etnolozima, antropolozima i u širem krugu zainteresiranih za leksikološko-leksikografske teme.

The present monograph is engaging to the development of the analytical construction, which is traditionally called the perfect tense and which served as the basis for the universal preterit of the present Russian. As the primary source of materials were chosen Slavonic liturgical Menaions for the month of May from 11th to 13th centuries (Putyatina Mineya, 11th c., Menaion Sof. 203, 12th c., Menaion Sof. 204, 13th c.). Since the examined texts are translations from Ancient Greek, also the Greek Mineje was used to analyse the units under examination.

The Atlas of Czech Dialects - Nominative Singular Feminine is the result of an interdisciplinary collaboration between experts from the Dialectology Department of the Institute of Czech Language of the Czech Academy of Sciences and experts from the Department of Geoinformatics of the Faculty of Science of Palacký University in Olomouc. The Atlas presents not only the dialectal phenomena that are declining and disappearing, but also the phenomena that are still alive. The main analytical dialect maps show the morphological differences in the territory of the Czech national language. The accompanying maps of spelling variations illustrate the overall territorial picture of the word form under study. In addition to the dialect maps and brief expert dialectological comments, the atlas contains texts describing the realities of former rural life, farming methods and customs, infographics, links to audiorecords and illustrative images created by artificial intelligence tools. The expert explanations are complemented by rich dialectal material, while the popular format of the texts ensures accessibility to a wide range of people interested in our dialect. Data from the Questionnaire for Research on Czech Dialects, processed into thematic maps, are brought to life by photographs taken by dialectologists half a century ago during field research.
