Glossing wind names in Low German in Salisbury? A newly discovered text in London, British Library, Cotton Vitellius A.xii

2018

It's an essay investigating a text on the names of the winds in ms London, British Library, Cotton Vitellius A.xii (s. xi), where both Latin and vernacular names are given. The text may ultimately derive from Einhard's Life of Charlemagne (ch. 29), but it appears as a self-contained text in the form of a Class Glossary. Although inserted in a manuscript copied in England at Salisbury, the vernacular words of the text are not in Old English. The essay makes a case for a possible connection with Flanders, with the text being one of the very rare surviving specimen of the Old Low Franconian language.

Wrede, Ferdinand (1863–1934)

2006

Ferdinand Wrede was born in Berlin and, after having received his doctor's degree, he was a collaborator on the Sprachatlas des Deutschen Reichs [Linguistic atlas of the ‘Deutsches Reich’] project in Marburg, and later on, full Professor of Germanic philology. Wrede's fundamental studies first were concerned with Germanic: the languages of the Vandals and the Ostrogoths. In 1908, he founded the series Deutsche Dialektgeographie in which dialect monographs, mostly on the basis of direct investigations (other than Wenker's indirect method), were published. He initiated many scientific projects, e.g., the Hessen-Nassauisches Worterbuch, an area dialect dictionary, he interpreted dialect maps, …

Cultural References and Linguistic Exponents of Gender in the Norwegian Translation of Michał Witkowski’s Lubiewo

2019

The novel Lubiewo by the Polish writer Michal Witkowski has been called by its reviewers “a homosexual Decamerone.” The atmosphere of the book ranges from bright situational comic through bizarre tragicomic to serious reflection, and the narration structure resembles Boccaccio’s. The heroes (or heroines) of the novel belong to a complicated and internally split world of Polish homosexuals. Their sociolects and registers are, at first glance, barely translatable into Germanic languages: partly because of the Polish grammatical gender system, partly because of their extremely deep anchoring in the Polish culture. In this chapter, the Norwegian translation of Lubiewo is compared to the novel’s…
