Roman Jakobson and American Slavic Studies: the First Postwar Decade
ROCZNIKI HUMANISTYCZNE Tom LXIX, zeszyt 7 – 2021 DOI: http://doi.org/10.18290/rh21697-7 HENRYK BARAN * ROMAN JAKOBSON AND AMERICAN SLAVIC STUDIES: THE FIRST POSTWAR DECADE Памяти Елены Душечкиной (1941-2020) The title of this article references a paper Roman Jakobson delivered in September, 1955 in Belgrade at the International Slavic Conference (Якоб- сон 1957). The meeting had been convened to reestablish connections between Slavic scholars and to lay the groundwork for a renewal of Interna- tional Congresses of Slavists. Jakobson’s presence there was well-justified, and not only because of his international reputation as a linguist and Slavic philologist: he attended in his capacity as a senior professor representing a graduate program at a preeminent university, Harvard, which over the course of a few short years had been playing a major role in the florescence of the Slavic studies field in the United States. In that capacity, Jakobson develops and interweaves two principal arguments in his paper. He outlines the rapid growth of the discipline at both traditional centers of strength and at recently established programs and describes the breadth and depth of PhD education in Slavic. This is followed by a discussion of the theoretical bases of re- search conducted by American Slavists and of various projects, some collec- tive, others individual, undertaken by Jakobson himself and recent graduates from doctoral programs at Harvard and elsewhere. Assessments of Jakobson’s contributions to various fields (Armstrong and van Schooneveld; A Tribute) have paid little attention to the extent to which, in the postwar period, in a new country, he embarked on a project to de- velop Slavistics as a discipline, constructing a program which was imple- mented at Harvard and which also impacted other universities and colleges. -
Ronelle Alexander University of California, Berkeley DIALECTOLOGY 1. Scope of the Discipline Given That Most Linguistic Descript
Ronelle Alexander University of California, Berkeley DIALECTOLOGY 1. Scope of the discipline Given that most linguistic description and analysis makes reference to the form of a language called the contemporary standard – normally defined as the code formulated in grammars and dictionaries, and spoken (with a somewhat wider range of acceptable variation) by educated native speakers – the sub-discipline of dialectology can be said to cover by far the broadest range of linguistic material, for it falls to dialectology to de- scribe ALL the remaining spoken forms of a language. The term “dialect” has several different connotations. In the broadest sense, it re- fers to any speech system the particular linguist has in mind; for instance, some linguists use it to refer to their own individual speech systems (as in, for instance, “in my dialect, X is possible but Y is not”). In the eyes of non-specialists (and, unfortunately, also of cer- tain specialists), the term carries clearly marked emotional overtones, denoting speech elements considered as backward, deviant, archaic, quaint, or “colorful”). Less com- monly, the term “dialect” can also refer to speech styles defined by social strata; such dia- lects are usually (though not always) perceived as occurring only in urban contexts. In the most neutral usage of the term – and its most frequent usage in Slavic linguistics – a dia- lect can be defined as “a non-standard self-contained linguistic system whose identity is articulated primarily with reference to geography”. Although dialectology can clearly be seen as a unified discipline, both the subject matter, and the manner in which this matter is treated, vary considerably over the geographical expanse of Slavic. -
In Memoriam Edward L. Keenan
russian history 42 (2015) 371-375 brill.com/ruhi In Memoriam ∵ Edward L. Keenan Nancy S. Kollmann [email protected] Edward L. Keenan, known to friends and colleagues as Ned, passed away on Friday March 6, 2015, in the home on Deer Isle, Maine that he shared with his wife of almost thirty years, Judy. He had retired in 2008 after a long and produc- tive career as a scholar, teacher and administrator; in the last year of his life he donated his extensive scholarly library to the University of Kentucky, Lexington. Keenan was a native of western New York and attended Harvard University for his entire higher education: B.A. in Slavic Languages and Literatures (1957), M.A. in Regional Studies (1962), Ph.D. in History and Middle Eastern studies (1965). He joined the Department of History and earned tenure in 1970. His impressive erudition was shaped by an extraordinary mixture of teachers: he studied structuralism and linguistics with Roman Jakobson and Horace Lunt, Slavic folklore with Dmytro Čyževs’kyj and Albert Lord, Ukrainian and Polish history and literature with Wiktor Weintraub and Omeljan Pritsak, and Turkology with Omeljan Pritsak. A talented linguist, he was fluent in Russian and Arabic and proficient in Turkic, Farsi, Uzbek, Uighur and Chagatay as well as the usual European research languages. Throughout his career he shaped academia in many leadership positions, including Associate Director and Director of Harvard’s Russian Research Center (1973–77), Dean of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (1977–84), Director of the Center for Middle Eastern Studies (three times between 1981 and 1994), Chair of the Department of History (1988–91).
