We demonstrate the complexity of this circulation by reassessing the 'quality' of these translations and positioning them in that longer history of circulation of knowledge by analysing the distribution of historical concepts (Begriffe) in Lomonosov's original and its translations.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Herbst2023, author = {Herbst, Dominika}, title = {Zeugenschaft in Wort und Bild}, series = {Opera Slavica.

However, efficiency management is a complex mechanism in which different efficiency effects-such as articulatory, processing and planning ease, mental accessibility, and informativity, online and offline efficiency effects-conspire to yield the coding of linguistic signs. While we do not yet exactly understand the interactional mechanism of these different effects, we argue that universal attractors are an important component of any dynamic theory of efficiency that would be aimed at predicting efficiency effects across languages. Attractors are defined as universal states around which language evolution revolves. Methodologically, we approach efficiency from a cross-linguistic perspective on the basis of a world-wide sample of 383 languages from 53 families, balancing all six macro-areas (Eurasia, North and South America, Australia, Africa, and Oceania). We explore the grammatical domain of verbal person-number subject indexes. We claim that there is an attractor state in this domain to which languages tend to develop and tend not to leave if they happen to comply with the attractor in their earlier stages of evolution. The attractor is characterized by different lengths for each person and number combination, structured along Zipf's predictions. Moreover, the attractor strongly prefers non-compositional, cumulative coding of person and number. On the basis of these and other properties of the attractor, we conclude that there are two domains in which efficiency pressures are most powerful: strive towards less processing and articulatory effort. The latter, however, is overridden by constant information flow. Strive towards lower lexicon complexity and memory costs are weaker efficiency pressures for this grammatical category due to its order of frequency.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{OPUS4-57990, title = {Russian Grammar: System - Usus - Variation}, series = {Linguistica Philologica ; 1}, booktitle = {Linguistica Philologica ; 1}, editor = {Haßler, Gerda and Wardlitz, Vladislava}, publisher = {Lang}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-631-87748-7}, issn = {2750-2961}, doi = {10.3726/b19724}, pages = {577}, year = {2021}, abstract = {The present volume contains a selection of papers presented at the Fifth International Symposium Russian Grammar: System-Usus-Language Variation, from September 22 to 24, 2021, at the University of Potsdam (Germany).

First, the theoretical basis is outlined, followed by the results of a corpus analysis of coccurrences with adverbs that limit situations. The term situation encompasses all representable processes, states, events, or actions. Finally, some theoretical conclusions are drawn concerning the cognitive category of bounding, using the example of aspectuality. The imperfective verb forms maintain their aspectuality in delimiting connections with adverbs, resulting in a complex, multi-dimensional aspectuality. In nongrammaticalized forms, such as lexical markers, the speaker is free to make a temporal localization or an aspectual perspective. Lexical expressions can make temporal and aspect markings even more precisely and clearly than tenses. They can also limit or extend situations and thus express aspect. Aspectuality thus presents itself as a compositional category, in which external bounding and the internal representation of a course of action or development can interact.}, language = {en} } @article{Wardlitz2021, author = {Wardlitz, Vladislava}, title = {Introduction}, series = {Russian grammar: system - usus - variation = Russkaja grammatika: sistema - uzus - varʹirovanie / Vladislava Warditz}, journal = {Russian grammar: system - usus - variation = Russkaja grammatika: sistema - uzus - varʹirovanie / Vladislava Warditz}, publisher = {Lang}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-631-86458-6}, issn = {2750-297X}, pages = {15 -- 22}, year = {2021}, language = {en} } @periodical{OPUS4-57987, title = {Linguistica philologica}, number = {1 (2021) -}, editor = {Haßler, Gerda and Wardlitz, Vladislava}, publisher = {Lang}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {2750-2961}, language = {ru} } @article{Obermayr2020, author = {Obermayr, Birgitte}, title = {Iwan Wassiljewitsch wechselt den Beruf (1973)}, series = {Klassiker des russischen und sowjetischen Films ; Teil: 2}, journal = {Klassiker des russischen und sowjetischen Films ; Teil: 2}, publisher = {Sch{\"u}ren}, address = {Marburg}, isbn = {978-3-89472-974-5}, pages = {95 -- 103}, year = {2020}, language = {de} } @article{Gabowitsch2021, author = {Gabowitsch, Mischa}, title = {Belarusian protest}, series = {Slavic review : interdisciplinary quarterly of Russian, Eurasian and East European studies / publ. by the Association for Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Studies}, volume = {80}, journal = {Slavic review : interdisciplinary quarterly of Russian, Eurasian and East European studies / publ. by the Association for Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Studies}, number = {1}, publisher = {Cambridge University Press}, address = {Cambridge}, issn = {0037-6779}, doi = {10.1017/slr.2021.28}, pages = {27 -- 37}, year = {2021}, abstract = {The Belarusian protest movement that started in August 2020 has been discussed from the point of view of strategy and objectives, and as the cradle of a new subjectivity.

In contrast to the English gerundives, which do not lose verbal behavior due to the derivation in the syntax and maintain all grammatical categories and characteristics of verbs, which is why one can speak of a real conversion while preserving the verbal semantics, the situation is somewhat different in Czech. In the deverbal, deadjective and other derivations, the Czech apparently made the transition to the noun with its critical properties, which is shown by certain restrictions in the aspectuality marking of deverbal noun phrases on -ni-, -ti-, which, e.g., do not pass the progression durativity test (Vendler 1967). In passive constructions, as is well known, a valence point in the position of the external argument is reduced compared to the corresponding active sentences, while the external argument position in anti-causatives is also not available in the deep structure. In addition to the syntactic restrictions that are evident in nominalizations in the context of simple sentences of different sentence types (causative, anti-causative, passive) and demonstrate the nominal character of certain types of deverbal noun phrases in the first part of this article, the second part of the essay deals with more complex structures and extends its analytical and theoretical part to the phenomenon of nominalizing subordinate clauses. The aim of the central part of this contribution is therefore to test the nominal properties of embedded conjunctional sentences and of embedded headless relative sentences on the basis of empirical data and thus contribute to the knowledge of whether certain types of relative sentences can (or must) be nominalized.}, language = {de} } @article{Kalczewiak2020, author = {Kalczewiak, Mariusz}, title = {Yiddish Buenos Aires and the struggle to leave the margins}, series = {East European Jewish affairs}, volume = {50}, journal = {East European Jewish affairs}, number = {1-2}, publisher = {Routledge, Taylor \& Francis Group}, address = {Abingdon}, issn = {1350-1674}, doi = {10.1080/13501674.2020.1774275}, pages = {115 -- 133}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Yiddish culture developed in Argentina within the context of a self-perception that figured Buenos Aires as a marginal and peripheral locale on the global Yiddish map.
