On Typology of Polish and French Imperfective

Although descriptions of factual imperfective aspect are not new to linguistics, both Polish and international, equivalence of its forms in other languages poses problems to foreigners and native speakers alike. This is especially true in French, where Polish past imperfective forms could be expressed by a number of past tenses. In order to proceed with our task we are going to adopt a classification of Polish imperfective verbal forms based on the following criteria: general factual meaning or specific (concrete) factual meaning as a primary measure and imperfective or perfective intention of the imperfective form as a secondary measure. Such systematization of the phenomenon in Polish will allow us to formulate guidelines of equivalence with French past tenses.

Summary

The present article is dedicated to a phenomcnon which ever since Ross (1967) has been referred to as Scambling.

Ross proposed that free word order in languages such as Warlpiri, Latin, German, Japanese, Korean or Russian is brought about by a Scrambling rule that was ordered late in the block of transformations and followed the ordinary phrase structure rules.

This article deals with Scrambling as a syntactic phenomenon which involves the base generation of scrambled elements in their surface positions and their LF movement to positions where they receive theta-roles.

Византийский гимнограф Георгий в свете славянских данных / Byzantine hymnographer Georgios in the light of Slavic data

The author examines the Old Church Slavonic translation of the hymnographic Canon for the Translation of the Holy Mandylion from Edessa to Constantinople. One of the canons, dedicated to this event, which took place
in 944, contains an alphabetic acrostic (from Alpha to Omega) formed by the initial letters of the regular troparia of each ode. Unlike Greek sources of the original text, the Old Church Slavonic Translation of the above-mentioned Canon contains theotokia, which are not preserved in the known Byzantine manuscripts.
It has been proved in the article that the Slavonic theotokia go back to the original Greek version of the text and by no means represent a later interpolation. The back-translation from Old Church Slavonic into Old Greek, performed on the base of detailed linguistic analysis, made it possible to reconstruct the name Georgiou, which is formed by the initial letters of the theotokia. This implies that the analyzed Canon contains a double acrostic – the alphabetic one and the one with the author’s name. Such kind of double acrostics has been attested mostly in the canons signed by Georgios. No additional data on this hymnographer have been so far discovered. On the ground of Slavonic translation one could come to the conclusion that the approximate time of Georgios’ life can be established. Since the Translation of the Holy Mandylion took place in 944 and the earliest version of the Slavonic translation is dated back to the middle of the 11th century or even to the second half of the 10th century, the period from the beginning of the 10th century to the beginning of the 11th century should be accepted as the time, when the Byzantine hymnographer, who could be, according to
Follieri's assumption, an author of about one hundred hymnographic canons, lived.
