    NICHOLAS POPPE’S CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE FIELD OF BURIAT MONGOLIAN LINGUISTIC STUDIES Jamiyan Sanjanov (Ulan-Ude, Ulaanbaatar) Нэрт монгол судлаачидын дунд Н. Н. Поппе бол монгол хэлшинжлэлийн хувьд том байр суурь эзэлж байгаа бөгөөд буриад-монгол судлалыг шинэ шатанд гаргасан агуу эрдэмтэн билээ. Түүнийг буриад- монгол судлалын үндэслэгчидын нэг гэж үзэж болно. Тэрбээр 1930-ад онуудад бүх буриад нутгийн аялгуунуудыг судлаад Буриад-монгол хэлний зүй гэсэн ном бичжээ. Түүнээс гадна Буриад-монгол хэлшинжлэл гэсэн том бүтээлийг туурвиж хэвлүүлсэн. Энэхүү ном нь монголч эрдэмтэдийн хувьд буриад аялгууны судлалын судалгааг цаашид улам гүнзгийрүүлж, буриад аялгууны шинэ ангилал, хэлний зүйг журамлан тогтоосон бөгөөд түүнийг цаашид хэрхэн судлан боловсруулахыг чиг хандлага заасан нь хэрэглээний чухал ач холбогдолтой болсныг онцлон дурдууштай. Буриадын түүхэн сурвалж бичгүүдыг монгол бичгээр хэвлүүлэх анхны саналыг гарган хэрэгжүүлсэн бөгөөд хойч үеийн монголч судлаачидын судалгааны ховор материалын нэг болгож чаджээ. Key words: N. N. Poppe; Buriat Mongolian Linguistics; Mongolian Language; Comparative Study; Dialect; Grammar; Semantics; Old Mongolian Script; A. D. Rudnev; B. Y. Vladimirtsov. Nicholas Poppe, through his investigations, contributed significantly to the development of Buriat Mongolian1 linguistic studies in the twentieth century. In this article we will try to describe the contribution Nicholas Poppe made in Buriat Mongolian linguistics, giving a description of the basic work he conducted. Background In 1983 the enduring and well-established scholar of Mongolian, Nicholas Poppe, published his Reminiscences in English, describing his life and research in detail.2 Later, in 1996, Russian researcher V. M. Alpatov wrote a biography of Nicholas Poppe in Russian. In the biography, however, Alpatov wrote quite 17 NICHOLAS POPPE’S CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE FIELD OF BURIAT MONGOLIAN LINGUISTIC STUDIES | Sanjanov | [email protected] disparagingly about the life and academic work of Nicholas Poppe.3 In 2009, the Mongolian researcher M.

Marcelline Hutton Resilient Russian Women in the 1920s & 1930s The stories of Russian educated women, peasants, prisoners, workers, wives, and mothers of the 1920s and 1930s show how work, marriage, family, religion, and even patriotism helped sustain them during harsh times. The Russian Revolution launched an economic and social upheaval that released peasant women from the control of traditional extended fam- ilies. It promised urban women equality and created opportunities for employment and higher education. Yet, the revolution did little to elim- inate Russian patriarchal culture, which continued to undermine wom- en’s social, sexual, economic, and political conditions. Divorce and abor- tion became more widespread, but birth control remained limited, and sexual liberation meant greater freedom for men than for women. The transformations that women needed to gain true equality were post- poned by the pov erty of the new state and the political agendas of lead- ers like Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin.

    SPRING 2009 JACKSON SCHOOL OF INTERNATIONAL STUDIES UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON Central Asian Waters: Issues for the Future BY BRETT WALTON For you and me, the weather is a topic of idle chatter, or perhaps a benign salvo lead- ing to discussion of weightier matters. But in Central Asia, elemental forces like sun and rain are the stuff of heavy debate. Th e region is one of many in the world in which changes in the weather track closely with political and social stability. A cold winter, as in 2007–08, can overwhelm domestic energy sources, strain cross-border trade agreements and relegate residents to burn- ing furniture for fuel. A dry summer like last year’s can cause a collapse in agricul- tural output, a restriction on crop exports and panic over food shortages.
