St. Tikhon’s University Review . Series III: Philology

The article suggests a new etymology of the Pskov microtoponym Polonishche. Based on the common Slavic meaning of the word polon "a clean place free for pasture or haymaking", preserved in Polesye region, as well as the semantics of the suffix -ishche, the article hypothesizes that Polonishche in Pskov was originally called the territory near the city where cattle were grazed. Based on the data of the Pskov chronicles, the article hypothesizes that the territory between the city walls of 1309 and 1375 was never called Polonishche, as it is commonly believed in modern historiography, while the early mentions of the microtoponym Polonishche in the text of the Pskov Second Chronicle in articles for the XIV century are late interpolations into the chronicle text. The microtoponym Polonishche originally designated the territory behind the wall of 1375, and gradually "replaced" the microtoponym Polye, which designated the territory located behind residential buildings adjacent to the city walls. The microtoponym Polye "field" most likely appeared before Polonishcha, but the chronicle data for the XIV century is very difficult to interpret, since the term Polye or field could well be used by chroniclers in a physiographic, rather than toponymic meaning. After the construction of the wall of the Roundabout City in 1465, the distinction between these names became clearer. Polonishche continued to be called the territory between the walls of 1375 and 1465, and the Polye began to denote the area behind the wall of the Roundabout City.

The period from 1220 to1262-64, the so-called Sturlung era, is significant in Icelandic culture, not only due to its dramatic political events, but also because by that time the great works of the Old Icelandic literature have been written down. In modern Icelandic historical fiction the most noticable text, devoted to the Sturlung era, is the tetralogy by Einar K?rason ("A Gathering of Foes“ 2001, "Fury“ 2008, "The Skald“ 2012 and "The Axe era“, 2014). It is based on the Old Icelandic "Sturlunga saga“, in particular, on "The Saga of Icelanders“ by Sturla Thordarson. The writing technique in the tetralogy s nevertheless antipodal to the saga manner: the events are described fragmentary, from the subjective point of view of a variety of persons, also the episodical ones; thus the complexity and the multifaceted character of the historical prcess is being stated. In each novel of the tetralogy there is one central character, the other narrators reflect upon. Snorri Sturluson, the most iconic figure of this era, is often mentioned, but is never among the narrators. The writing of sagas is being described (especially in "The Skald“), and the inner intentions of the 13th century scribes creating their texts turn out to be similiar to the intentions of modern authors. The narration manner and the universal thinking way of thecharacters neutralizes the historical distance between the narration and the readers. In modern Icelandic literature a firm narrative tradition of perception of the Sturlung era is absent, thus, the works of Einar K?rason can be regarded as the direct reception of the Old Icelandic sourse texts as they are, but not as an interplay with a set tradition of their perception. But such a tradition can be formed in future by this tetralogy.

In a paper, written in polemics with mythology of the Flauberian studies of XX, particularly of the Soviet origin (the so-called realism or new realism, objectivism, impersonality, rationality of Flaubertian manner in “Madame Bovary”, identification of the author and his skills with the narrator, etc.), a figure of the narrator in this novel is discussed in full detail for the first time. This figure, a concrete person and a creator of narrative, is corresponded with Flaubert on various levels (biographical, gender, psychological, rationally creative, intertextual, subconscious) as well as with the characters (including the narrator on his own, his self-reflexion, psychological and psychic complexes, aims, methods and stylistics of narration). Antifeminine dimension of the narrative. «We» of the narrative is interpreted as a controversial sum of “I”, “non-I”, “other I-ies”, shadow projections of “I”, theatrical metamorphoses of “I”. In context of a special position of the narrator bourgeoisness, literatureness of the social consciousness, romanticism, palimpsest of the narrative, the double ending, and also the motives of story-telling and justification of creative efforts are analyzed. Symbolically the main events of the narrator’s world are death and positioning of himself as an inventor of fictions (“the lies”), a highly personal narrative the roots of which are in his school childhood, his mania of additional details and of endless improvement of his text. The narrator as a madman and an author of the madman’s diaries. The characters of the novel as artists. A study of the poetics of repetitions, mirror scenes, colours (blue, red, green), erotics, nature, historical details permits V. M. Tolmatchoff to introduce a rather new interpretation of Flaubert’s work as belonging to romanticism (partially baroqian, partially classical). The paper reconstructs chronology of events, age of the characters and poses a problem of Flaubert as inventor, of a meaning of non-correspondence in his novel between purely fictional time-space and strict historical details.

Suffixed and prefixed words have common linguistic properties and are closely related to the base word in the mental lexicon. Whether different types of information are important for the storage of different types of derivatives or whether their mental organization is similar is one of the topical psycholinguistic questions. My experimental data point at different ways of storing related verbs in the mental lexicon, linked to the base word through two derivational processes. Between the stem and the suffixed relative, the relationship is closer and based on common lexical properties, while the relationship between the stem and the prefix is ??rather formal. I draw this conclusion on the basis of the robust morphological priming effect from the suffixed verb to its base even if the spelling integrity of the suffixed relative is ??violated. This also holds true only in the condition of an orthographically preserved root morpheme. On the contrary, the priming effect to the base verb disappears from a related verb with an orthographically violated prefix. Furthermore, both suffixation and prefixation do not act uniformly and a closer look suggests that lexical organization is modified through the aspectual information of family members. This information will need to be taken into account in future studies of verbal material of the Russian language.

This article continues the publication of certain parts of the Systematic French-Russian Dictionary of Religious Lexis and represents a section of the larger chapter which includes the topics. As in the previous topics, the main problem in establishing equivalents was the fact that French lexemes are used in the Catholic context, which — in order to identify the degree of their equivalence — made it necessary to compare the concepts of the Catholic and Orthodox creeds. The ideas about sinful urges of human soul are generally the same in Catholicism and Orthodoxy, though there are dissimilarities too, e.g. in the understanding and the number of sins which are characterised as “cardinal”. In 590, St. Gregory the Great proposed a list of seven main sins, i.e. vanity, envy, wrath, sadness, greed, gluttony, lust. Historically, their number fluctuated between seven and eight. Pride often occupies a separate position. Sadness is sometimes united with despondency and is sometimes seen as a specific sin. Envy is not always listed specifically. In the 13th c., blasphemy was added to the Catholic list. There is a notion of “seven cardinal sins”. In Orthodoxy, these are sometimes called “basic” (or primary): avarice, fornication, pride, wrath, envy, gluttony, despondency (sadness). They are general categories divided into more specific manifestations, e.g. love of profit, love of money, excessive accumulating of property, self-interest, greed, avarice. Lust also includes fornication. Pride is self-reliance, excessive self-confidence, wilfulness, disobedience, etc. The deadly vice in Orthodoxy is a sinful passion which man is unable to get rid of up to the negation of God. In Catholicism, a list of seven péchés capitaux was in the 13th century proposed by St. Thomas Aquinas: orgueil, gourmandise, luxure, avarice, jalousie (envie), colère, paresse. These are regarded as fundamental and generating other sins. Catholics clearly distinguish péchés véniels and péchés mortels. The former are insignificant and forgivable. The latter are deadly sins committed deliberately (en connaissance de cause) and with full consent (avec un consentement délibéré). In our list, the cardinal sins are italicised. As in the preceding articles, our main aim is to present the relevant vocabulary without offering a theological interpretation.

The Dictionary of Locutions from Liturgical Books by Protopriest A. Nevostruev, completed in the middle of the 19th century and never published, can be regarded both as a signifi cant achievement of Church Slavonic studies and as a valuable lexicographic source. The manuscript is kept in the Russian State Library. The decrepit state of the manuscript has determined the necessity of its urgent study and edition. The significance of this project is primarily due to the fact that the text of the dictionary is being made accessible to linguists for the fi rst time. The orthography and grammar of the dictionary refl ect the linguistic views of the time of its creation and can be of interest for those who study the history of Russian linguistics. This paper contains the next part of dictionary entries beginning in letter O. Characteristic features of the publication of this Dictionary, lists of sources, abbreviations and symbols were described in detail in the previous issues of St. Tikhon’s University Review. All previously published parts of the Dictionary together with the critical apparatus can be found at the website of St. Tikhon’s University for the Humanities: https://pstgu.ru/science/proects/slovarrecheniy-iz-bogosluzhebnykh-knig-prot-a-i-nevostrueva/.

This paper presents new material for the dictionary of the present-day dialect of Staroshvedkoye (Gammalsvenskby), the only Scandinavian dialect in the territory of the former Soviet Union. The present-day state of this dialect has not been described in linguistic literature. The only source of data on Gammalsvenskby is fi eldwork with speakers of the dialect. The main objective of this work is to present material recorded in the interviews in the most complete way possible and to describe the state of the vocabulary and infl ection in the dialect. The entries include the following information: type of infl ection; translation; phrases, sentences and short texts illustrating the usage (with initials of the informants). In many cases full paradigms are given as well. They include all phonetic and morphological forms that have occurred in the interviews.
