„Środkujące zeznania” – sposoby nominacji aktów notarialnych z początku XIX wieku

Author(s): Joanna Kuć / Language(s): Issue: 1/2014

Confrontation notaries’ achievements allowed to reveal differences in naming of certain notarial contracts. The overview of the manuscripts from the perspective of the twenty-first century means that you can easily get lost in determining the type of act. Inconsistency or deliberate action, resulting in various names acts in the same category and notary office, not only clarifies the nature of the same activities, but also shows the evolution of certain notarial acts. This does not change the fact to the effect that the wording of the legal action could have a number of equal variants, without affecting to the socio-legal situation in the 19th century.

Adjectivul niger în opera vergiliană

Author(s): Maria Subi / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 51-52/2013

The adjective niger (3) ‘black, wretched, sinister, fatal’ occupies an important place amongst Virgilian chromatic terms, as its dark tone harmonizes with the atmosphere of melancholy and sorrow found in the work of the Latin poet. Used in opposition to albus(3) – the white of light, the white of day – niger(3) symbolically relates to the black of night (gloomy, ominous) or to the vast Hell, equally dominated by the same dark colour. An attribute of the night and of Hades, niger takes on a markedly negative value which is noticeable in all its contextual uses (e.g. its association with other elements, such as the dust, the darkness of woods, the clouds or the storm), just as black always remains a symbol of ugliness, destruction and evil.

Cântarea Cântărilor, discurs alegoric şi imaginar religios

Author(s): Doina Butiurcă / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 51-52/2013

The first great hymns of love – which differ from one another on a linguistic and referential level – are The Song of Songs and the Apostle Paul’s First Letter to Corinthians – chapter 3. The present study focuses on the former, and argues that it ought to be interpreted as an allegory of God’s love for His people, the Israel. In the introduction, we underline some aspects regarding the history of the spiritual hymn, the ongoing polemic concerning the period when it might have been created, and its paternity. Further on, we briefly introduce the most prominent interpretations of The Song of Songs, before focusing on the attempt to reinforce the allegorical reading and understanding of the text, in chapters like The Epiphanies of Jahve, The Sheppard and His Flock, The Topography of the Divine Space.

Conceptualizarea antonimică – modalitate de structurare discursivă

Author(s): Daniela Gheltofan / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 51-52/2013

In this study, we argue that antonymy is a universal linguistic and cognitive phenomenon that points to general or national pattern behaviours that are difficult to identify and clarify. To decipher these cultural and linguistic behaviours, we have focused on cognitivism, delimiting the “antonymic concept”. We have suggested interpreting antonymic conceptualization as a way of conceptual-discourse structuring. This was applied to the postmodern fiction text Nepoata lui Dali by Simona Constantinovici (2009). Thus, by analysing the antonymic concept viaţă-moarte (life-death) as a discourse macro-intention we show that narrative expansion and text construction are also done on a conceptual-antonymic basis, which shows the importance of antonymic cohesion in discourse structuring. Finally, based on the conceptual-literary plane provided by the antonymic contexts and the corpus of conceptual phrases excerpted from the novel, we have succeeded in isolating conceptual-auctorial metaphors concerning “viaţa” (life) and “moarte” (death) and conceptual-literary networks of “viaţă” (life) and “moarte” (death). Based on them, we supply a model of discourse configuration based on the antonymic concept in the novel analyzed.

Injonction et polyphonie

Author(s): Diana Costea / Language(s): French Issue: 2/2014

Starting from the principle of the polyphony elaborated by the Russian theorist Mikhail Bakhtin who defined the polyphony as a plurality of voices into the novelistic reprezentation and by Oswald Ducrot who said that every sentence contains many superposed discourses we will demonstrate that the injunctive sentence produces not two enunciators, but two points of view.

Pe râpi – o abordare semantică a toponimelor văilor Bistra şi Sebeş ce descriu adânciturile de teren

Author(s): Diana Boc-Sînmărghitan / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 51-52/2013

Starting from the theoretical premises regarding the relationship between proper and common nouns, the aim of this paper is to analyze the toponyms derived from appellatives that describe ground hollows. The landscape variety of the Bistra and Sebeş Valleys (Caraş-Severin County, Romania) is reflected in the huge diversity of geographical folk terms that constitute a fundamental source for naming places. Toponymy, an independent discipline, with its own formative rules and lexical and grammatical developments, maintains a close connection with the Romanian language vocabulary, illustrated by the contribution of appellatives to place-name formation. This paper alphabetically presents the toponyms derived from topical appellatives referring to the configuration of the ground. Because of the richness of the source material, we have voluntarily limited the material analyzed to the proper nouns that refer to ground hollows of different dimensions and forms. Most of the appellatives which form the basis of our toponyms are attested by scientific works. The appellatives ogaş (groove), râpă (precipice) and groapă (pit) register the highest occurrence in toponymic compounds, shaping the landscape of the locations of interest. A constituent part of Romanian toponymy, the toponyms from the region Bistra and Sebeş Valley were collected during direct and successive inquiries organized in the localities of this region, but also by using toponymic works (dictionaries, monographies, articles, studies), document collections, history books and memoirs, guides, plans etc.

Probleme ale omonimiei gramaticale: elementul predicativ suplimentar

Author(s): Florina Băcilă / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 51-52/2013

Starting from the idea that researchers have extended homonymy to other levels of the language in addition to the lexical one and defined it as an association of identical phonological structures with different meanings, the objective of the current paper is to examine some aspects of grammatical homonymy with reference to the Subject and Object Complements – syntactic functions that represent a highly debatable issue among linguists. We have in view the presence of the Complement in several constructions that can be interpreted in various ways, depending on the part of speech through which it is realized and its flexibility. In such ambiguous structures, the Subject and Object Complements can be frequently analyzed as Attributes, Predicatives or Objects. Moreover, many Romanian constructions with the Subject and Object Complements have very interesting derivative histories, but, at the same time, debatable from a certain perspective: the way they were produced. Subsequently, for clarifying, one can use techniques like articulation or word order change. This proves, once again, the necessity of an integrated approach to Romanian grammar, in order to avoid confusion: although it is still a problem of morpho-syntax, grammatical homonymy must be studied in relation with semantics and phonetics, thus being a typical case of interrelation between the branches of any language.

Referiri, mențiuni și opinii traductiv-pretraductologice în Convivio al lui Dante

Author(s): Iulia Cosma / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 51-52/2013

The present paper aims to investigate and, as much as possible, clarify the extent to which Dante could be considered a theoretician of translation studies and therefore a key figure in the history of translation theory, as seems to be suggested in the works of Susan Bassnett and Georges Mounin. In order to acquire a better understanding of Dante’s supposed statements regarding the translation process, an extensive and intensive study was required of the work from which his comments were extracted, namely the Convivio, as well as De vulgari eloquentia. The instruments of analysis employed were those of Jean Bollak’s critical and historical hermeneutics. The historical approach was fundamental to observing and describing Dante’s complex and elaborate argumentative apparatus. Works from the history of mentalities, semiotics and the philosophy of language were drawn upon to give a more accurate interpretation of his ideology and words. The second part of the study consists of an analysis from a translation studies perspective of the excerpts regarding translation. This has resulted in the rejection of the original hypothesis that viewed Dante as interested in the process of translation, or in translation studies.

Scurtă privire asupra infinitivului în limba română actuală

Author(s): Raluca Ariannna Vîlceanu / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 51-52/2013

The Infinitive has represented from the very beginning and continues to represent even today an extremely debated issue not only in Romanian, but also in foreign language studies, due to the multiple aspects it has or employs. The usage of the Infinitive in Latin has been retained, one way or another, in most Romance languages. However, this does not happen to the same extent, regarding its frequency, in each of these languages. Thus, unlike Romance Western languages, where the syntactic usage of the Infinitive has been considerably enriched, Romanian has reduced the role of the Infinitive in its system, replacing it very often with the Conjunctive (sometimes even with the Gerund), a tendency that has brought Romanian closer to Balkan languages, such as Neo-Greek, Albanian, Bulgarian and Serbo-Croatian, which, apparently, have influenced it in this way. There cannot be an equivalence or concordance between the Infinitive and the Conjunctive. The phenomenon of competition is a living phenomenon that has not been brought to a closure yet, which illustrates the complex relation between langue and parole and also sets the norm as an intermediate level between the two facets of language. In order to draw a picture of the situation of the Infinitive in the contemporary Romanian language, we have conducted a survey on papers of literature, philosophy, science, paremiology, administration and journalism. The conclusion we have reached is that in combination with the syntactic semi-auxiliary a putea, the predominance of the Infinitive is overwhelming in comparison with the occurrence of the Conjunctive in the same situations.

Sufixul diminutival -uţ ⁄ -uţă în limba română

Author(s): Gabriela Serban / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 51-52/2013

In this article we wish to present a monographic study on one of the most frequently used diminutive suffixes in the Romanian language, namely -uț / -uță, inherited from the Latin -uceus / -ucea. According to the views on the Latin origin of this suffix, we have taken up the morphological value of the derivative words formed with -uț / -uță and of the themes with which the suffix combines. Diminutive suffixes do not change the grammatical category of the themes, but several derivatives diverge from this rule. Their number is low. Most of the derivatives have developed feminine forms, which constitute the richest category of derivatives of this suffix. Next, on the basis of the material offered by the DEX, we have taken into consideration the origin of themes from which the derivatives of the suffix -ut / -uta are formed and we have drawn conclusions as regards the suffix productivity.

Un Trésor de cataphores. L'analyse de la chaîne thématique d'Arthur Trésor dans le roman Noir de Françoise Lalande

Author(s): Stanisław K. Żebrowski / Language(s): French Issue: 1/2003

On peut se poser la question, quel rôle peut être joué par un chat dans un roman qui raconte la fin d'une passion de deux amoureux, dont l'un est responsable de ce drame et l'autre est sa victime. Dans un roman où il y a même une personne tierce - provocatrice de cet état de choses. Dans un roman, où, apparemment, rien ne compte sauf la tragédie. Un chat peut apparaître comme un personnage secondaire qui ne reste pas sans importance pour le contenu et la protagoniste.

Јазичната политика во Република Македонија – меѓу законската регулатива и прак- тиката

Author(s): Simona Gruevska Madžoska / Language(s): Macedonian Issue: 12/2012

The question about the status of the Macedonian language manifests itself for the first time in the 19th century, but its resolution starts with the codification of the Macedonian lan¬guage after World War II. The Macedonian language is then declared as an official language in the Macedonian republic and equal amongst the other languages in SFR Yugoslavia. However, the official language in SFR Yugoslavia (the language of international communication, mili¬tary dealings, one of the core subjects in all elementary schools etc.) was the Serbo Croatian language. With the formation of an independent Republic of Macedonia, the Macedonian language became the only official language until the peace deal Ohrid Framework Agreement was signed, when the language of the largest ethnic minority – the Albanian language – gains the status of an official language. The issue of interest of this article is whether the Macedonian language has changed its status and to what extent, what are the terms of legislation for it and the real situation in which it is found in the Republic of Macedonia.

" Vous nous l'avez racontée au moins cinquante fois... ". Effacement énonciatif et effets de généricité dans La Poche Parmentier de Georges Perec

Author(s): Witold Wołowski,Krzysztof Sobczyński / Language(s): French Issue: 05/2006

Sytuując się na pograniczu literaturoznawstwa i językoznawstwa, niniejszy artykuł dotyczy dwóch zjawisk: dezindywidualizacji wypowiedzi czy też inaczej – zatarcia znaczników subiektywności w dyskursie (effacement énonciatif) oraz hybrydowości rodzajowej / gatunkowej (effets de généricité). Jako materiał egzemplifikacyjny posłużyła nam mało znana sztuka teatralna La Poche Parmentier Georges’a Pereca, znanego z nonszalanckiego stosunku do konwencji rodzajowych, której tematem jest obieranie ziemniaków. Zanik subiektywnego i zaangażowanego w swą mowę wypowiadacza (postaci-lokutora) osiągnięty zostaje poprzez: 1. zwielokrotnienie źródeł wypowiedzi i gatunków mowy (postaci posługują się przepisami kuchennymi, hasłami reklamowymi, danymi z roczników statystycznych, encyklopedii, itp.); 2. powtarzanie pewnych segmentów wypowiedzi i cykliczność wydarzeń; 3. systematyczne odwołania intertekstowe, w których postaci odgrywają role, zamiast mówić „za siebie” (collage scen ze sztuk Ioneski, Labiche’a, Szekspira...). Z genologicznego punktu widzenia La Poche Parmentier jest ciekawym przykładem sztuki teatralnej złożonej z szeregu mikro- i makronarracji, które rozbijają w pewien sposób jej konfigurację rodzajową (interferencje trybu mimetycznego i diegetycznego).

"...Jogászok szokták vagy ügyvédek eztet tudni pontosan ..." Nyelvi jogi ismeret a romániai falusi magyarság körében

Author(s): Hajnal Tünde Katona / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: I/2013

In Romania legislation referring to the linguistic rights of minorities was elaborated without taking in regard the needs of the certain minority since the battle was fought on the scene of politics. It must be mentioned that the laws regarding linguistic rights were mainly conjuctural (Péntek 2005:141–142), thus language use was regulated in a relatively short time and the target community was announced partly or was not announced at all regarding the occurring modifications. The notification should have been done by the competent authorities. This situation made us realize that it is a question in the case of the Hungarians living in Romania, whether they exercise their linguistic rights in a conscious manner and whether they are aware of the existence of such rights. The present study deals with the partial results of a research done between January and June 2012 which clearly show that the Hungarian villagers living in Romania feel – as one of the respondents said – „I don’t really know the laws, this is the main problem. I know only what I can see from everyday life”.
