Avec La realidad y el deseo. Toponymie du découvreur en Amérique espagnole (1492-1520), un des derniers travaux de Carmen Val Julián, disparue en 2004, s'affirme une recherche pionnière, originale et minutieuse, sur la toponymie, l'acte de nomination et ce monde qui fut déclaré Nouveau. L'héritage riche et fécond de celle qui contribua activement au renouveau des études hispaniques tout en enseignant pendant quinze ans à l'ENS de Fontenay / Saint-Cloud et à l'École polytechnique apparaît dans la seconde partie de ce volume, grâce à une vingtaine d'auteurs qui furent proches d'elle et s'inscrivent dans les lignes de recherche qu'elle a développées : écrire l'histoire, réécrire les histoires, nommer l'espace, mesurer le pouvoir des mots. Mais cet ouvrage mémoriel n'aurait pas été complet si des voix plus personnelles n'avaient évoqué, sous toutes ses facettes, la personnalité chaleureuse d'une traductrice, d'une enseignante, d'une chercheuse. Ce volume d'études sur l'Amérique latine et plus largement sur le monde hispanique témoigne de son rayonnement. La realidad y el deseo. Toponymie du découvreur en Amérique espagnole (1492-1520), one of the last works of Carmen Val Julián, who died in 2004, provides pioneering, original and meticulous research on toponymy, the act of naming and what came to be known as the New World. The rich and fertile heritage of this author who played an active role in the revival of Hispanic studies during her fifteen years spent teaching at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure in Fontenay/Saint Cloud and the Ecole Polytechnique features in the second part of this volume. It includes contributions from twenty or so authors who knew her well and who follow the lines of research which she developed: writing history, rewriting histories, naming and measuring the power of words. But this tribute would not be complete without more personal evocations of all aspects of the warm personality of this translator, teacher and researcher. This volume of ...

The monograph ('Celtic Legacy in the Toponymy of South-Eastern Alps') offers a close examination of the South-Western Alpine region for Celtic (specifically Gaulish) linguistic remains in the onomastic landscape. Supported by a rigorous methodological apparatus, the investigation sets out to determine which ancient and contemporary geographical names can securely be pronounced to be etymologically Gaulish, focusing on the historical phonology, morphology, word formation, lexis, the geographical distribution of the relevant place-names, and the specific nature of their integration into the pre-existing toponymic landscape. The monograph is a decisive step forward in the recognition of the distributional character of Celtic linguistic remains in the Celtic East. In the wide time-span and the multifarious nature of the often fragmentary and sensitive linguistic material that it is faced with, this work contributes equally importantly to the field of comparative Celtic and Indo-European linguistics (especially with concern to the paleolinguistic remains in the region), as it does to Slovene onomastic studies and the problem of the constitution of early Slavic and early Romance phonological make-up and the interaction between the two. Monografija je prva sistematična obravnava keltske zemljepisnolastnoimenske dediščine na jugovzhodnem alpskem prostoru. Z upoštevanjem strogih metodoloških načel, zasnovanih izrecno za preučevanje občutljivega jezikovnega gradiva, raziskava poskuša eksaktno odgovoriti na vprašanje, katera antična in sodobna zemljepisna lastna imena je mogoče v etimološkem smislu z večjo ali manjšo gotovostjo opredeliti kot izvorno galska. Ker je preučevano jezikovno gradivo vpeto v širok časovni okvir, po naravi pa je praviloma fragmentarno in kot takšno zahteva strukturirano in vsestransko etimološko obravnavo, delo s svojimi metodološkimi prijemi in spoznanji v enaki meri pomembno prispeva k zgodovinski slovnici keltskih jezikov, primerjalnemu jezikoslovju indoevropskih jezikov (zlasti z ozirom na problematiko onomastičnih oz. fragmentarno izpričanih jezikovnih sistemov), slovenskim, splošneje slovanskim in romanskim imenoslovnim študijam ter slovanskemu in romanskemu zgodovinskemu glasoslovju ter interakciji med obema jezikovnima sistemoma.

Trail of Story examines the meaning of landscape, drawn from Leslie Main Johnsons rich experience with diverse environments and peoples, including the Gitksan and Witsuwiten of northwestern British Columbia, the Kaska Dene of the southern Yukon, and the Gwichin of the Mackenzie Delta. With passion and conviction, Johnson maintains that our response to our environment shapes our culture, determines our lifestyle, defines our identity, and sets the tone for our relationships and economies. With photos, she documents the landscape and contrasts the ecological relationships with land of First Nations peoples to those of non-indigenous scientists. The result is an absorbing study of local knowledge of place and a broad exploration of the meaning of landscape.
