On the basis of a very rich lexical material covering four Montenegrin dialects (Piva, Uskoci, Zagarač, Vasojevići), the article deals with linguistic andro¬centrism, which is characterized, among others, by the unequal treatment of men and women in the language code, with a clear masculine domi¬na¬tion and an unfavorable, definitely more negative, image of women. The analyzed feminative vocabulary is characterized by richness and vividness of expressivisms, vulgar derivates and contemptuous names of women of a doubtful moral attitude, an unusual style of being or a character, a questioned intellectual level or just women of atypical anatomy. The number of words descri¬bing women is a regional phenomena which does not occur in any other parole groups of this region. A particularly lexically numerous group is the one describing women acting in a more liberated way and taking the male-female relations more freely. The article covers the presentation and the analysis of motivation behind creating female names, it indicates the word-building principles and patterns for creating the descriptions of women and lists the words and associations most commonly used to create vulgar feminatives. Serbian-Croatian vul¬garisms constitute a group of words, derivate roots for most of such derivates. These include vulgar names of sexual organs (pizda, pička, kur(ac)) or other parts of body (guz(ica), dupe), as well as verbs relating to bodily functions (jebati, prdeti, pišati i smrdeti). Feminatives are created as affixation derivates (with pejorative suffixes: -ulja, -uša, -ina, -ača), compounds, and some of them are associative derivates, metaphoric semantic transfers concerning the names of body parts.

Croatian-Slavic lexicographic contacts appear on at least five levels: a) Slavic loan words and calques in Croatian dictionaries b) Slavic dictionaries as models in Croatian lexicography c) Slavic languages in Croatian lexicography d) Croatian language in Slavic lexicography e) Linguistic reference literature on Croatian-Slavic lexicographic contacts. The paper focuses on the first and the third points, chronologically singling out the most characteristic examples of Croatian-Slavic lexicographic contacts, whose intensive development dates back to the 14th century. The majority of Slavic calques were introduced into Croatian in the 19th century, while in the 20th century fewer calques were introduced, but more bilingual dictionaries containing Croatian and another Slavic language were published. In the 21st century the lexicography will have to cater for new communication needs emerging from closer contacts of Slavic languages in a united Europe. It will also have to keep up with the technological advance that makes electronic dictionaries more accessible and the collection of lexical material much easier. This offers hope for the development of firmer Croatian¬ Slavic lexicographic contacts and thereby a chance for the better understanding of different cultures.

The article presents an unknown document found in the posthumous legacy of Miroslav Krleža, in which the writer presents the circumstances of the creation of the Croatian Declaration on language dated 1967. The publication of the Declaration and the repressions their signatories met constitute one of the most important elements of the contemporary Croatian linguistic and national tradition. This is due to the fact that the signatories of the Declaration were former founders of the independent Croatian State and the document itself constitutes a proof of an incessant struggle of Croats for their linguistic and national independence. In this context statements made by Krleža in the published document saying that the Declaration was reputed to be a provocation aimed at the pro-nationally oriented part of Croatian intelligentsia sound sensational. The authors of this provocation were supposed to be Marxist intellectuals gathered around the journal Praxis, acting with the knowledge and approval of the Croatian party authorities. Considering the extraordinary content of this document and its meaning for the newest history of the Croatian language, the author found it important to present it in extenso along with commentaries concerning the circumstances in which the document was created.

The article presents the geographical location of morphonologically reconstructed Proto Slavonic (familiar) and loan (etymologically simplified) forms that mean ‘fist’. The analysis is based on material that had been stored in the archives of the General Slavic Linguistic Atlas, collected in about 850 local points on the territory of all Slavonic countries. A feature characteristic for the reflex forms meaning ‘fist’ is their little differentiation in quantity (only about 30 basic forms) and distinct areal accumulation, to¬gether with a relatively large territorial contribution of reflexes of loan word forms. The West Slavic and Slovenian linguistic areas are dominated by the reflex forms *pęst ь. A smaller area (mostly Serbian, partly Montenegrin, Croatian, Bulgarian and Mace¬donian) is being occupied by the reflexes of the *pęst ьn ic a form. *Šak a reflexes are found at majority of Croatian linguistic region, as are forms derived from the Proto Slavonic *tup an ic a in Macedonian area. The Slavonic terri¬tory is generally dominated by reflex forms of Turkish origin – *(kulak) ъ (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus) and (jumruk) ъ (Bulgaria) along with, though marginally, of Italian descent – in south west periphery (Slovenia). The results are pictured on an attached map.

Presentation of the project Macedonian Dialect Atlas to the participants in the working session on OLA, Struga, 8-15 October 2006 The article shortly presents all achievements accomplished so far on the MDA project on which the Institute for Macedonian language „Krste Misirkov” – Skopje is working. Academician B. Vidoeski was the initiator of this project in the beginning of sixties in the last century, and he was the project manager until his death in 1998. In this period, the foundation of the project was laid and that means as follows: the questionnaire to collect dialect materials was composed, dialect spots were determined, a blank dialect map was composed, the dialect material was gathered sorted out into an organized card-file. A great number of linguistic maps were drawn up however the final decision concerning the presentation of the linguistic data on maps was not taken. In the recent period the work focused on the digitization of the MDA card-file which enables a thorough selection of relevant data and a map to be drawn. The topic of elaboration is lexis. Different lexemes are cartographed with different signs, and the function of the color of each sign is to provide a more clear-cut determination of the area in which a specified lexeme occurs. The article also provides the basic decisions connected with the first volu¬me of the Atlas.

The Polabian language was spoken by the smallest Slav population until the 18th c.; Russian still constitutes the means of communication of the most numerous Slav nation. The history of both languages was also diametrically different – Polabian stayed on the level on a dialect, leaving only a few (transcribed by Germans) texts from the late period of its existence. Whereas Russian did not develop fully until Polabian declined, then creating a rich and varied literature that laid the basis for the formation of a stylistically differentiated literary language. Both languages are imbued with German loan-words. In Polabian they constituted a tool of national enslavement. They penetrated all domains of life, with time gradually driving out native vocabulary. Whereas on the Russian territory Germanisms, naming new ideas, filled empty places in the lexical system. In general, they were restricted to specialized vocabulary and writing. Despite the fact that the adaptation of these Germanisms was mainly restricted to phonetics and orthography (the Russian linguistic system in the period of its most intensive invasions, in the 17th and 18th c., was still weakly developed), played in total rather a positive role in the development of the language. But this role is not to be overestimated. On the extinction or development of a language decide mainly extra-linguistic circumstances.

This article is about the problem of adults' functional literacy. It's about functional literacy in certain groups of adults: the future educators (ie. 2nd year students of Preschool Education Programme, further on called group A) and educators in kindergartes or in the first class of nine year primary school programme (also part- time students of third year Preschool Education Programme, further on called group B). The article consists of two sections. In the first section the idea of literacy is defined; this idea has been changing according to the needs and requirements of the society of the time. Then I write about the significance of communication activities for successful development of literacy, about the types of literacy and about the methods of assessing or measuring, respectively, the functional literacy. The second section shows the results of the research work, in which I've compared functional literacy of group A and group B. The article is concluded by findings, one of them being of utmost significance: efficient development of functional literacy (in the pre-school period it's the so called emergent or pre-school literacy) is not possible without a functionally literate educator. The emergent literacy is the first and basic step, leading to efficient functional literacy in adults.

The Letter of patriarch Theophylact to tsar Peter is the oldest, but seemingly not the most informative Greek source for the history of Bogomilism. It is in essence a standard document, a typical product of the patriarch’s chancery; it is not conceived as an in-depth investigation into the theological minutiae pertaining to the cosmogony, dogmas and social doctrines of the heretics and the orthodox Church, but rather as a practical tutorial on how to thwart any given neo-Manichaean dualist heresy. It brings to light the fact that Bogomilism, the ‘new’ heresy was treated as an ‘old’ one – as a ‘reactivation’ of earlier gnostic-dualist and neo-Manichaean movements. The letter also features a peculiar innovative feature, though not one directly related to the Bogomil heresy itself: the degree of commitment to preaching the dogmas of the heresy is used for differentiating the situation of the followers. The analysis of the Letter of patriarch Theophylact to tsar Peter raises the more general issue concerning the detailed study of Byzantine and Slavic liturgical texts as a source of information on neo-Manichaean doctrines.

The article deals with the case of the so-called “biblical thematic clue” (a definition introduced by R. Picchio), that is a rhetorical device allegedly widely spread in the medieval Church Slavonic literary code. Despite a large number of studies, appeared in the last decades and mostly inspired by Picchio’s theory, scholars have failed so far to produce a wide theoretical outline of this issue, moreover checking it on the basis of a narrow circle of texts (mostly in the field of hagiography and homiletics). Consequently, several methodological questions remain to a large extent unexplored. For instance: What actually is a ‘thematic clue’ and at which point of the expositio a biblical reference is expected to be found in order to be considered as a ‘thematic clue’? What degree of adherence to a previous model a ‘thematic clue’ must have in order to be recognized as such? To what extent was a medieval man of letters aware in using this rhetorical device? And apart from this, shall the ‘thematic clue’ always be interpreted as a case of ‘intertextuality’, i.e. as result of an intentional quotation of a well-defined literary model, or may it sometimes be explained also as a phenomenon of ‘interdiscoursiveness’, i.e. a unintentional quotation drawn not from a definite biblical or patristic model (‘parole’), yet from a biblical-liturgical ‘langue’?) Besides these and other issues, still open remains the question whether it is acceptable to consider the ‘thematic clue’ as an exclusive feature of the Old Church Slavonic literature, or rather a rhetorical device known even to other traditions? In this regard, the author offers a brief survey illustrating how different literary systems, over more than two thousand years, have made use of quotations from authoritative models in the introductory lines of a text or even in incipit. Examples of such a rhetorical strategy are pointed out in ancient Greek and Latin poetry, where is to be found the typical use of the so-called ‘motto’, i.e. an allusive quotation from a well-known model (primarily Homer) in the first verse of a poem, functioning as ‘self-nscription’ by the poet in a literary canon (see e.g. Callimacus, Horace, Catullus quoting Homer or Alcaeus, etc.). In more recent times, the ancient use of ‘motto’ gains strenght inside all Christian traditions, where the main source for quotations becomes the Holy Bible: for example, in Middle Latin liturgical poetry (see e.g. Paulinus of Nola, Notker Balbulus), in the Goliardic poetry (see the Archpoet of Cologne, etc.), as well as in Slavic and Byzantine hymnography. An interesting typological parallel to the Slavonic ‘thematic clues’ is to be found in Western paraliturgical practice of the so-called ‘thematic verse’, customarily in use in medieval Franciscan and Dominican homiletics...

The original text of the Palaea Historica, a Byzantine narration based on the initial books of the Old Testament, contains two anathema directed against the Phundagiagitae (adherents of a medieval neo-Manichaean heresy), accusing them of the belief in Cain’s being the son of Satanael and in that the union of Adam and Eve occurred in the Garden of Eden already. The analysis of the relevant passages and their counterparts in two Slavic translations of the Palaea, as well as certain other Byzantine and Slavic medieval texts with related content, contributes to illuminating the circumstances under which the Slavic translations arose. The paper also discusses the very term Phundagiagitae (practically absent from all other Slavic sources) and addresses the issue of the supposed non-canonicity of the Palaea.
