In these processes, unitarian and separatist language policies have constantly changed, and many times the language has been a symbol (its name, script, certain lexemes, etc.) and a means of connecting with the national identity that the advocates of nationalist politics used to promote their political ideologies – by enforcing linguistic changes with the aim of creating as many differences as possible between ‘Our’ language and ‘Their’ language. -
Linguistics As a Science of Man
UDC 81:929 Bugarski R. https://doi.org/10.18485/bells.2018.10.1 BELLS INTERVIEW: RANKO BUGARSKI LINGUISTICS AS A SCIENCE OF MAN by Katarina Rasulić BELLS: Your academic career as a linguist is truly impressive, not only in terms of its duration and the number of your influential publications, but also in terms of the range of linguistic and interdisciplinary fields in which you have been active. These include English linguistics, general linguistics, contrastive linguistics, applied linguistics, sociolinguistics, language policy and planning, language in relation to identity, culture, ethnicity and nationalism, written language and literacy, political manipulations of language, terminology and bibliography, history of linguistics – and the list is not exhaustive. In retrospect, what do you see as the main driving force in the development of your scholarly interests in the study of language? BUGARSKI: In the endeavours listed I was basically driven by my early acquired and continuing fascination with language in its many and diverse aspects. As a linguist I am naturally committed to my profession, but I often feel – if I may put it this way – that language is even more wonderful than linguistics. It is this sense that has taken me from one facet of language to another, and correspondingly from one of the linguistic subdisciplines to the next. This constant urge, however, has been a mixed blessing. On the one hand, given such a broad range of interests my scholarly contributions, whatever merit they may have, have necessarily remained more restricted in impact than they might have been had I from the start focused on a few selected fields and delved far deeper into them, which 11 Belgrade BELLS is what most properly trained linguists do. -

In connection with this, concepts such as language death and language birth are explored. A brief history of Serbo-Croatian will be provided and compared to an even more brief history of the peoples who spoke the language. The relation between dialect and language is analyzed and then specifically applied to the region in question. -

Language and Identity in Montenegro: a Study Among
SLAVICA HELSINGIENSIA 41 ED.

I present the results of a study based on interviews of Montenegrin university students who were asked about their views and attitudes with respect to the language they speak and the various aspects of the language situation in Montenegro as a whole. From the interviews, four types of linguistic identity emerged. I grouped these as strongly Monte- negrin, moderately Montenegrin, moderately Serbian, and strongly Serbian. I argue that the most significant factors explaining the adoption of a certain linguistic identity are nationality, family background, and primary and secondary education. In the first part of the paper I briefly introduce the basic theoretical concepts of the study, paying special attention to the notion of linguistic identity. I also give a quick overview of Montenegro and the Montenegrins, which I think is necessary in order to understand the specific context in question. The language situation is described by focusing on its most significant single element, the new Montenegrin standard language. In the paper’s second part, I present the results of the interviews. Giving voice to my informants, I introduce the four types of linguistic identity. Then I analyze the factors behind the adoption of a particular linguistic identity and show how these factors work. -

Editorial Preface
EDITORIAL PREFACE It is with great pleasure that the Department of English Language and Literature, Faculty of Philology, University of Belgrade, dedicates the 10th volume of the Belgrade BELLS journal to Professor Ranko Bugarski, on the occasion of his 85th birthday. Ranko Bugarski, whose scholarly work enjoys a remarkably high international standing, has already been the recipient of three festschrifts (each featuring different contributors, all in all 57 scholars from 41 universities and research institutions from 25 countries), which bear clear witness to his lasting imprint in many different areas of language study. He has enriched the life of the English Department in Belgrade in many ways for almost six decades. This volume of BELLS is a small token of the Department’s appreciation of and commitment to the academic values that Professor Bugarski epitomizes. The two opening texts highlight Professor Bugarski’s academic and personal profile. First comes the interview with Ranko Bugarski by Katarina Rasulić, entitled “Linguistics as a Science of Man”, in which Bugarski answers (in his well-known smart, candid and witty style) a comprehensive range of questions pertaining to his life as a linguist and public intellectual. Then follows Ivan Čolović’s article “The Ranko Bugarski Library”, in which the author – the founder and editor of the “20th Century Library”, a long-established beacon of excellence in the field of the social science and humanities literature – explains why Ranko (1) History and Perspectives of Language Study – Papers in Honor of Ranko Bugarski (eds O.

On the Identity of Serbian
Chapter 1: Serbian and Its Identity between East and West On the Identity of Serbian Ranko Bugarski Abstract After a short introductory comment on the concept of identity in rela- tion to languages, this article proceeds to examine the identity of Ser- bian before, within, and after its Serbo-Croatian phase. The discussion leads to the conclusion that despite all the historical changes a relative- ly straight line can be drawn from the foundation of standard Serbian during the 19th century to the present. Constant modernization, mainly due to contact with other cultures, is regarded as the most important single feature of its evolution in modern times. This ongoing process is illustrated from the author’s research on word formation by nominal suffixation and blending, as well as accentuation, where a major role has been played by jargonisation of linguistic elements, especially in youth slang, as a modernizing aspect of linguistic creativity often prompted by the influence of other languages, particularly English. Key words: identity, change, modernization, Serbian, Serbo-Croatian. 1. Introduction In this article, by the identity of a language is meant the complex and continuity of features which define its profile, making it an estab- lished and named entity of its own, recognizable as such and different from similar entities. It has three main aspects: (1) structural or typo- logical (what a given language is like); (b) genetic or evolutionary (how it evolved); and (c) functional or sociolinguistic (what social functions - 9 - RANKO BUGARSKI it performs and how it is evaluated). In many instances (e.g. Japanese, Russian, Finnish, Turkish) the three aspects are in agreement, since these languages are distinct from others by each of the criteria and hence man- ifest what may be called single identity.
