Book Synopsis Old Names - New Growth by : Peter Bierbaumer
Download or read book Old Names - New Growth written by Peter Bierbaumer and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2009 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the 2nd ASPNS conference the emphasis regarding the topics of the talks was placed on lexicographic and linguistic matters. In this volume the contributors assess the various problems of working with plant names like foxes glofa and geormanleaf, pulege and psyllium, hlenortear or fornetes folm. A special study analyses the semantic aspects of Old English plant names. More generally plant related discussions deal with the mandrake legend in Anglo-Saxon England and continental Europe, the need for a new publication of the Old English Herbarium and of the Medicina de Quadrupedibus, or the tree names in Anglo-Saxon charters. The conference also served as a platform to introduce the Graz-Munich online project Dictionary of Old English Plant Names.
Book Synopsis Old Names, New Peoples: Listing Ethnonyms in Late Antiquity by : Salvatore Liccardo
Download or read book Old Names, New Peoples: Listing Ethnonyms in Late Antiquity written by Salvatore Liccardo and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-10-30 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No people is nameless, and lists of words are as old as writing systems. And yet, both subjects can appear unpromising to historians. This volume shows the contrary by examining the various meanings and functions of ethnonyms in Late Antiquity: added to catalogues of provinces, they reflect the political messages and the regulating power of the imperial bureaucracy; included in schoolbooks, they mirror educational practices and reveal the geographical and ethnic landscapes taught at school; placed on a map, they help make sense of the world in times of transition.

This book was released on 2019-10-21 with total page 1289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness; that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works" (2 Timothy 3:16""17). This book contains not only a look at the meanings of people and places of the Old Testament but also a brief look at who the people were in that they really did live. In most cases showing they had family, and were a son or a daughter, a brother or sister, the father or mother of a person. The book also tells where the places were and even in the meanings of their names, there is great significance. For every person and place written in the Bible, there is a specific reason, whether for the meaning of the name of a person as in the name Adam (man, red earth) or in the name of a place, as in Bethel (house of God). It will be very enlightening and edifying to see and understand their significance as this book is used as a study help. The reader will also see, while using this reference book, that the contents of this book make looking at the meaning of the names easier. And one will see more clearly that the mystery of God and his plan for his people can be found in the names of the children of Israel, Christ in you the (only) hope of glory. This is just one of the many treasures that is found while looking at the names of the priests and kings of Israel and Judah. Whether a scholar or a layman, there are many treasures to be found in studying the scriptures, and I believe this reference book will be a blessing to anyone as an aid in searching out the hidden gems of the Word of God. The Lord bless you!

Book Synopsis Women's Names in Old English by : Elisabeth Okasha
Download or read book Women's Names in Old English written by Elisabeth Okasha and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph provides an in-depth study into the issue of vernacular names in Old English documents. Specifically, it challenges the generally accepted notion that the sex of an individual is definitively indicated by the grammatical gender of their name. In the case of di-thematic names, the grammatical gender in question is that of the second element of the name. Thus di-thematic names have been taken as belonging to women if their second element is grammatically feminine. However, as there are no surviving Anglo-Saxon texts which explain the principles of vernacular nomenclature, or any contemporary list of Old English personal names, it is by no means sure that this assumption is correct. While modern scholars have generally felt no difficulty in distinguishing male from female names, this book asks how far the Anglo-Saxons themselves recognised this distinction, and in so doing critically examines and tests the general principle that grammatical gender is a certain indicator of biological sex. Anyone with an interest in Old English manuscripts or early medieval history will find this book both thought provoking and a useful reference tool for better understanding the Anglo-Saxon world.
