Droga Szymona Budnego do krytycznego wydania Nowego Testamentu z 1574 roku

Author(s): Arleta Łuczak / Language(s): Polish / Publication Year: 2016

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).

Dynamika współczesnego słownictwa słowiańskiego w przestrzeni stylowo-funkcjonalnej

Author(s): / Language(s): Slovak,English,Bulgarian,Russian,Polish,Slovenian,Ukrainian,Belarussian,Greek, Modern (1453-) / Publication Year: 2017

This volume of studies by Polish and international linguists is devoted to changes in modern Slavic languages, which are especially noticeable in the spheres of vocabulary and word formation. Taking into consideration the stylistic and functional aspect of lexis development allows for a better understanding of the dynamics of language change and the efficacy of communicational acts. The purposeful and pragmatic character of communicational behaviour manifests itself widely in the social, political and cultural contexts considered by the Authors. The works comprising the volume are divided into three thematic sections: - Phenomena, processes and tendencies in the development of specialist lexis (terminology); - Word formation and lexical mechanisms dynamics; - Lexical change in modern language communication and discourse. The sections help organize the volume by highlighting the dominant theme in particular texts. The scopes of the sections are, nevertheless, not sharply delineated – each section is to an equal extent devoted to the complex and multifaceted subject-matter of the tendencies and changes in modern Slavic vocabulary. Most of the works comprised in the volume adopt a contrastive approach, the remaining ones can serve as bases for contrastive studies. The text analyse the rich material of the Slavic languages – Polish, Czech, Slovak, Belarusian, Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian and Slovene – as well as of other languages, like Modern Greek.

Procesy nominalizacyjne w zdaniach wyrażających relację przyczynowo-skutkową

(na materiale języka polskiego i bułgarskiego)

Author(s): Jakub Lubomir Banasiak / Language(s): Bulgarian,Polish / Publication Year: 2020

The study is devoted to nominalization processes in sentences expressing the causal relation that can be paraphrased using pure causatives (verbal exponents of the causal predicate). The causal predicate itself is modelled according to Stanisław Karolak’s theory of aspect. Considering that this work is not theoretical in nature, its main merits lie in the description of linguistic facts. The application of predicate-argument structure theory enables a comprehensive description of syntactic and pragmatic features of discrete causative predicative expressions. The study formulates strict rules which govern their use and verifies certain claims concerning such issues as the distribution of a “raised” object and the semantic category of time. Each predicative expression is given its functional equivalent in the other language.

Synonimia w polskiej terminologii medycznej drugiej połowy XIX wieku

(na podstawie "Słownika terminologii lekarskiej polskiej" z 1881 roku)

Author(s): Lucyna Agnieszka Jankowiak / Language(s): Polish / Publication Year: 2015

The book is an attempt to describe synonymy in scientific medical terminology (names of diseases) at the end of the 19th century based on the material obtained from “The Dictionary of Polish Medical Terminology” (Polish: “Słownik terminologii lekarskiej polskiej”) from 1881 including a broad description of historical background and the conditions in which Polish medical terminology developed at that time. The characteristics of synonymy concerned primarily structural, semantic and genetic aspects. A secondary aim of the book was to present the material, i.e. 940 synonymic series presented as a Dictionary and Index. The Dictionary of Polish Medical Terminology from 1881 is a work of Polish physicians belonging to Cracow and Warsaw schools. They attempted to systematise Polish medical terminology (collect current terminology and supplement it due to a considerable development in the field of medicine). The primary conclusion from the analysis is that it was impossible to avoid synonymy in the terminology that was created consciously, which was largely influenced by non-linguistic, rather than linguistic, factors (e.g. the influence of synonymy in foreign medical terminologies, especially in Latin, or influence of one of the regions on the selection of a given term). What is more, the range of synonymy in this terminology is substantial (approximately 38%). Synonymy concerns all names of diseases (both those known for a long time and those discovered just before the dictionary was made in 1881). 94.5% of the synonymic series consist of native terms only. In general, 65.5% of the series consist of terms with similar, homogeneous structures e.g. two-word items, which are the most common (437 series). Moreover, the series are usually composed of words with the same stems (41.7%). The synonyms in mixed groups (in terms of structure) have various (with diverse level of complexity) relations with one another (i.e. they have the same or different stems). Furthermore, a part of the terminological synonyms (154) present polysemic relations.

Z zagadnień informacji naukowej, terminoznawstwa i językoznawstwa

Author(s): / Language(s): Slovak,English,Bulgarian,Russian,Polish,Ukrainian,Belarussian / Publication Year: 2018

The monograph is a result of the conference meetings organized at the Institute of Slavic Studies of the Polish Academy of Sciences in 2016-2018 entitled "Modern systems of Slavic bibliographic information - today and tomorrow" and "Linguistics and Slavic bibliographic information systems - today and tomorrow". These meetings were devoted to problems occurring in such disciplines as information sciences, bibliology, linguistics and terminology. The participants of these meetings, the Authors of the texts, are researchers of Polish and foreign academic institutions, most of whom work within one of two Committees of the International Committee of Slavists: the Commission on Linguistic Bibliography and the Terminological Commission. The book includes theoretical and practical works. The common reference point of the monograph is the information retrieval system iSybislav that is in fact a digital bibliographic database, which presents contemporary achievements of world Slavic linguistics and is elaborated by an international team of linguists.

ZGODA w rozumieniu Polaków czasów staro- i średniopolskich (analiza leksykalno-semantyczna)

Author(s): Beata Raszewska-Żurek / Language(s): Polish / Publication Year: 2016

The object of the analysis is zgoda (harmony) – a concept derived from the social sphere and at the same time a value which was universally recognised by Poles of the Old Polish and Middle Polish periods. The concept zgoda is expressed linguistically with the lexeme zgoda and its lexical family (zgodny, zgodliwy, zgodzić/zgadzać się and their antonyms), as well as, albeit rarely, with other lexemes. A detailed study was conducted concerning the hyperonym of the concept zgoda – the lexeme zgoda along with its derivatives, and its oppositum – niezgoda, the hyperonym of the opposite concept niezgoda (disharmony). Such comparative analysis of opposite concepts serves to better demonstrate their sense and clearly presents the evaluation associated with them. The work is based on the material of card indices for three dictionaries of the subsequent periods in the development of the Polish language – the Słownik staropolski [A Dictionary of the Old Polish Language], the Słownik polszczyzny XVI w. [A Dictionary of the Polish Language of the 16th Century], and the Słownik polszczyzny XVII i 1. poł. XVIII w. [A Dictionary of the Polish Language of the 17th Century and the First Half of the 18th Century]. A total of 4937 usages of lexemes of the zgoda lexical family have been analysed – including 3932 units derived from zgoda and 1005 units derived from niezgoda.

Zintegrowany opis semantyczno-syntaktyczny czasowników bułgarskich, polskich i rosyjskich (verba cogitandi i verba sentiendi)

Cz. II.1 Verba cogitandi

Author(s): Aleksander Kiklewicz,Małgorzata Korytkowska,Julia Mazurkiewicz-Sułkowska,Agnieszka Zatorska / Language(s): Bulgarian,Russian,Polish / Publication Year: 2019

“Zintegrowany opis semantyczno-syntaktyczny czasowników bułgarskich, polskich i rosyjskich (verba cogitandi i verba sentiendi)” (An integrated semantic and syntactic description of Bulgarian, Polish and Russian verbs: Verba cogitandi and verba sentiendi) includes an extensive monographic study of two classes of Bulgarian, Polish and Russian verbs: verbs of thinking (verba cogitandi) and verbs of feeling (verba sentiendi), as well as two dictionaries featuring their semantic and syntactic descriptions. The study aims to investigate relations between the syntactic and semantic layer, which are greatly determined by features of the verbs that build sentence structures. The authors analyse semantic-syntactic processes in sentence structures identified in the study material – most of which involve condensation – and formal manifestations of basic sentence categories that have an impact on the features of syntactic structures. The study also involves important lexicographic questions, concerning not only the form and content of dictionary entries but also their delimitation, that is, drawing a line beyond which items under consideration display different features and thus should make up separate entries. Since the volume concerns three Slavic languages, it also includes some observations and conclusions on their contrastive features.

Лингвистическая идея числительного в русских грамматиках XVIII–XIX веков

Author(s): Maksim Duszkin / Language(s): Russian / Publication Year: 2018

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).
