Acta geographica Slovenica, 49-2, 2009, 393–428 SEMANTIC DEMARCATION OF THE CONCEPTS OF ENDONYM AND EXONYM PRISPEVEK K POMENSKI RAZMEJITVI TERMINOV ENDONIM IN EKSONIM Drago Kladnik BLA@ KOMAC Bovec – Flitsch – Plezzo je mesto na zahodu Slovenije. Bovec – Flitsch – Plezzo is a town in western Slovenia. Drago Kladnik, Semantic Demarcation of the Concepts of Endonym and Exonym Semantic Demarcation of the Concepts of Endonym and Exonym DOI: 10.3986/AGS49206 UDC: 81'373.21 COBISS: 1.01 ABSTRACT: This article discusses the delicate relationships when demarcating the concepts of endonym and exonym. In addition to problems connected with the study of transnational names (i.e., names of geographical features extending across the territory of several countries), there are also problems in eth- nically mixed areas. These are examined in greater detail in the case of place names in Slovenia and neighboring countries. On the one hand, this raises the question of the nature of endonyms on the territory of Slovenia in the languages of officially recognized minorities and their respective linguistic communities, and their relationship to exonyms in the languages of neighboring countries. On the other hand, it also raises the issue of Slovenian exonyms for place names in neighboring countries and their relationship to the nature of Slovenian endonyms on their territories. At a certain point, these dimensions intertwine, and it is there that the demarcation between the concepts of endonym and exonym is most difficult and problematic. KEY WORDS: geography, geographical names, endonym, exonym, exonimization, geography, linguistics, terminology, ethnically mixed areas, Slovenia The article was submitted for publication on May 4, 2009. -

Summary report. United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names 6th Meeting of the Working Group on Exonyms Prague [Praha], Czech Republic, 17th – 18th May 2007. This two-day meeting was jointly arranged with the EuroGeoNames Project and part of a meeting on geographical names in conjunction with a meeting of the UNGEGN East, Central and Southeast-East Europe Division. It was hosted by the Czech Land Survey Office and took place in the premises of this Office, Praha, Pod sídlištěm 9/1800. Participants and the papers presented are listed in the Annex to this Report. The meeting was opened and the delegates welcomed by Ms Helen Kerfoot, the UNGEGN Chair, Mr. Peter Jordan, the Working Group’s Co-convenor and Mr. Jörn Sievers as the representative of the EuroGeoNames Project. In her opening address Ms. Kerfoot emphasized that UNGEGN views on exonyms had somewhat changed in recent years. All the three opening addresses referred to Mr. Pavel Boháč, the meeting’s principal organiser, thanking him for his great efforts. Mr. Jordan then outlined the programme of this meeting and its main task of clarifying the use of exonyms in an empirical (in which situations are exonyms actually used?) and in a normative (in which situations should exonyms be used or not be used?) way. -

Daughton Professor John Connelly Professor Jonah Levy Spring 2011 The Daily Plebiscite: Political Culture and National Identity in Nice and Savoy, 1860–1880 Copyright 2011 Mark Alexander Sawchuk Abstract The Daily Plebiscite: Political Culture and National Identity in Nice and Savoy, 1860–1880 by Mark Alexander Sawchuk Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Carla Hesse, Chair Using the French philosopher Ernest Renan’s dictum that the “nation’s existence is ... a daily plebiscite” as an ironic point of departure, this dissertation examines the contours of oppositional political culture to the French annexation of the County of Nice and the Duchy of Savoy in 1860. Ceded by treaty to France by the northern Italian kingdom of Piedmont-Sardinia, these two mountainous border territories had long been culturally and geo-strategically in the French orbit. Unlike their counterparts in any other province of France, the inhabitants of the two territories were asked to approve or reject the annexation treaty, and thus their incorporation into France, in a plebiscite employing universal male suffrage. -

Wisse Kelly Scott Johnson Sholem Schwarzbard: Biography of a Jewish Assassin Abstract The thesis represents the first complete academic biography of a Jewish clockmaker, warrior poet and Anarchist named Sholem Schwarzbard. Schwarzbard's experience was both typical and unique for a Jewish man of his era. It included four immigrations, two revolutions, numerous pogroms, a world war and, far less commonly, an assassination. The latter gained him fleeting international fame in 1926, when he killed the Ukrainian nationalist leader Symon Petliura in Paris in retribution for pogroms perpetrated during the Russian Civil War (1917-20). After a contentious trial, a French jury was sufficiently convinced both of Schwarzbard's sincerity as an avenger, and of Petliura's responsibility for the actions of his armies, to acquit him on all counts. Mostly forgotten by the rest of the world, the assassin has remained a divisive figure in Jewish-Ukrainian relations, leading to distorted and reductive descriptions his life. -
