Antroponymie potomků zelówských Čechů
2016
The initial part of the article presents a brief history of Czech people in Polish Zelów as well as characteristics of this group of residents.

Material for analysis comes from tombstone inscriptions of the cemetery of the Evangelical-Reformed parish in Zelów. Authoress emphasizes that on the one hand anthroponyms reflect history, culture, and realities of life and on the other hand contacts with other nations.

Para probar esta complejidad designativa dedicamos las siguientes páginas, que hemos dividido en tres partes: introducción, análisis de cuestion…
Popular toponomastics pathways in Sicily: contacts between categories and new connotations
2014
This study is a reflection on the category of popular toponym and on the pathways which they are subjected to. It operates in two directions: the first one is that of onomaturgy, the second one takes into account overextensions, secondary connotations and people's consciousness of places. The first issue moves from the reflections resulted from the collection of ethnic nicknames (or blasons pupulaires) in Sicily. In particular, we start from the observation according to which popular anthroponyms can contribute to generate in speakers popular toponyms that follow a pathway of overlapping/substitution like the one concerning ethnics and blasons populaires. The second issue regards official t…
