  • Dolors Bramon
    No. 1 (Spring 2013), 1-12 ISSN 2014-7023 HOMOPHONIC TRANSFORMATION OF TOPONYMS: SOME EXAMPLES FROM ANDALUSI ARABIC AND A NEW INSTANCE FROM PLA DE L’ESTANY Dolors Bramon Institut d’Estudis Catalans Institut de Recerca en Cultures Medievals (IRCVM) Universitat de Barcelona e-mail: [email protected] Received: 27 December 2012 / Revised: 21 January 2013 / Accepted: 14 May 2013 / Available Online: 17 June 2013 Resum És sabut que amb el pas de l’àrab a les llengües romàniques, diversos topònims d’origen àrab varen sofrir un procés de transformació d’acord amb algun nou significat que pogués ésser entès pels usuaris de la llengua receptora. Aquest treball analitza alguns casos de transformació popular per homofonia, amb especial atenció als noms de lloc que deriven de l’existència d’aigua (al-cuyún) i que sovint vas ser confosos amb “lleons” i en proposa un de nou –Lió– al Pla de l’Estany. Paraules clau: romandalusismes, toponímia, homofonia Abstract It is a well-known fact that with the substitution of Romance languages for Arabic many Andalusi place names were given a new interpretation and, accordingly, a new shape through folk etymology, relative homophony being one of the most salient factors governing the process. The present paper gathers and analyses some instances of such homophonic reinterpretations and also suggests a similar origin for the Catalan place name Lió (Pla de l’Estany, Banyoles), which, just like some other -lleó and -lió toponyms, might derive from the Arabic al-cuyūn ‘the springs’. Key Words: Andalusi Arabic, place names, homophony * Unless otherwise specified, the English translation of texts and quotations is by PangurBàn Ltd.

    ABOUT THE CONCEPT OF ONOMASTIC IDENTITY: THE PRIVILEGES' PARCHMENTS OF THE CITY OF BALAGUER (1211-1352) MOISÉS SELFA UNIVERSITAT DE LLEIDA SpaIN Date of receipt: 10th of March, 2010 Final date of acceptance: 4th of February, 2014 ABSTRACT This paper is an analysis of the name that appears in the Pergamins de Privilegis of the city of Balaguer. The historical period that we take for this study includes the years 1211-1352. The structural study of the systems of designation allows us to say that these spread and claim an identity to a concrete geographical space, the city of Balaguer of the 13th and 14th centuries; that the first name of the inhabitants of Balaguer in the Late Middle Ages are faithful to the trends set by the fashion onomastic predominantly in the Catalonia at that time and that the anthroponomy of Balaguer of the historic time covered offers as majority the surnames that come from place names. All these features allow us to talk of onomastic trends that confer identity to a population in constant geographical movement. KEY WORDS Onomastic, Identity, Privilegis, Anthroponymy, Toponymy. CAPITALIA VERBA Onomastica, Identitas, Privilegia, Anthroponimia, Toponimia. IMAGO TEMPORIS. MEDIUM AEVUM, VIII (2014) 135-149. ISSN 1888-3931 135 136 MOISÉS SELFA 1. The concept of onomastic identity Since ancient times, people have used a name to differentiate themselves from their peers. This name was given to a person in accordance with one of his or her physical or moral characteristics, since they were not given at birth, but as a person matured in life and began to stand out for one of these qualities.

Barcelona [email protected] abstract This article suggests a reconsideration of the term “exile” as it is referred to the Cata- lan thinkers since the armed conflict of 1936-1939. “Inner exile” is a label whose use frequently obeys to ideological and personal considerations rather than to an objective characterisation. Thus, what serves to discredit some authors is neglected for others who enjoy a positive characterisation . This is also the case of “exile”. Pere Coromines [1870-1939] stands here as an initial example. key words exile, inner exile, Pere Coromines. 1 1. By Way of Introduction: An Uncomfortable Question In order to contextualise what I will say about some key figures in Catalan culture and, above all, to indicate the direction of my current work on essays in Catalan and their possible and difficult standardised acceptance, I will begin with a question expressed by Marta Pessarrodona. In the introduction to França 1939. La cultura catalana exiliada (France 1939. Catalan Culture Exiled), her coherent, useful and ambitious book on a very complicated issue and which has the particular merit of having been produced at all, she writes: “I have also repeatedly asked myself why important figures at a political, intellectual and artistic level, such as Lluís Nicolau d’Olwer or Pere Coromines, are so unfa- 1 Pere Coromines, as the author explains in the text, opts for the use of this word, desterro (ban- ishment), instead of the word exili because of its connotations.

Amb una dilatada producció discogràfica –gairebé 40 discos–, han deixat en el record referències com Opus 10 (Edigsa, 1976), Nou de trinca (Ariola, 1981) i sobretot, Festa Major (Edigsa, 1970), esdevingut un clàssic indispensable. La Trinca es va avançar al seu temps.

Results 2017 RESULTS 2017 6 Presentation We are now in the fifth year of the AC/E Programme for the Internationalisation of Spanish Culture (PICE), and it can truly be said that it has come of age. The PICE has consolidated its status as a key instrument for promoting our culture. The dynamic network it has created of professionals in the cultural sector in Spain and abroad demonstrates its commitment to the future. In 2017, PICE has demonstrated its strength by effectively administering a bigger budget and receiving more applications than in previous years. Moreover, the Secretariat of State for Culture has noted that over the year the PICE has perfectly reflected the objectives we set out in the 2020 Culture Plan. The programme’s two-way approach that provides assistance to both visitors and mobility has been key in consolidating the presence of Spain’s creative and cultural sector abroad. It has allowed the PICE to present Spanish creators on five continents, while consolidating creativity in our own country. And reciprocally, we have also received directors, programmers and professionals from more than 60 countries. PRESENTATION 7 PICE aims to position our cultural sector abroad, focused on less established proposals that need the full support of public cultural bodies. Recent years have seen the emergence of creative expressions that require effective institutional support to address the challenge of internationalisation.

Batista i Roca, founder member of the Anglo-Catalan Society and its first Honorary Life President, always hoped that the Society would at some stage be able to publish some of the work of its members and guest speakers. Unfortunately this was never possible during his lifetime, but now that the Society, with the help of a grant from Omnium Cultural, is undertaking the publication of Occasional Papers it seems appropriate that this Series as a whole should be dedicated to the fond memory which the Society holds of him.
