Language Contact in Pomerania: the Case of German, Polish, and Kashubian
P a g e | 1 Language Contact in Pomerania: The Case of German, Polish, and Kashubian Nick Znajkowski, New York University Purpose The effects of language contact and language shift are well documented. Lexical items and phonological features are very easily transferred from one language to another and once transferred, rather easily documented. Syntactic features can be less so in both respects, but shifts obviously do occur. The various qualities of these shifts, such as whether they are calques, extensions of a structure present in the modifying language, or the collapsing of some structure in favor the apparent simplicity found in analogous foreign structures, all are indicative of the intensity and the duration of the contact. Additionally, and perhaps this is the most interesting aspect of language shift, they show what is possible in the evolution of language over time, but also what individual speakers in a single generation are capable of concocting. This paper seeks to explore an extremely fascinating and long-standing language contact situation that persists to this day in Northern Poland—that of the Kashubian language with its dominating neighbors: Polish and German. The Kashubians are a Slavic minority group who have historically occupied the area in Northern Poland known today as Pomerania, bordering the Baltic Sea. Their language, Kashubian, is a member of the Slavic branch of Indo-European languages and further belongs to the Pomeranian branch of Lechitic languages, which includes Polish, Silesian, and the extinct Polabian and Slovincian. The situation to be found among the Kashubian people, a people at one point variably bi-, or as is sometimes the case among older folk, even trilingual in Kashubian, P a g e | 2 Polish, and German is a particularly exciting one because of the current vitality of the Kashubian minority culture. -

When Sweden invaded Poland, in June 1655, it went to war with an army which reflected not only the state’s military and cultural strengths but also its fiscal weaknesses. During 1655 the Swedes won great successes in Poland and captured most of the country. But a series of military decisions transformed the Swedish army from a concentrated, combined-arms force into a mobile but widely dispersed force. -

RODNEY STONE PREFACE Amongst the books to which I am indebted for my material in my endeavour to draw various phases of life and character in England at the beginning of the century, I would particularly mention Ashton’s “Dawn of the Nineteenth Century;” Gronow’s “Reminiscences;” Fitzgerald’s “Life and Times of George IV.;” Jesse’s “Life of Brummell;” “Boxiana;” “Pugilistica;” Harper’s “Brighton Road;” Robinson’s “Last Earl of Barrymore” and “Old Q.;” Rice’s “History of the Turf;” Tristram’s “Coaching Days;” James’s “Naval History;” Clark Russell’s “Collingwood” and “Nelson.” I am also much indebted to my friends Mr. J. C. Parkinson and Robert Barr for information upon the subject of the ring. A. CONAN DOYLE. HASLEMERE, September 1, 1896. CHAPTER I - FRIAR’S OAK On this, the first of January of the year 1851, the nineteenth century has reached its midway term, and many of us who shared its youth have already warnings which tell us that it has outworn us. We put our grizzled heads together, we older ones, and we talk of the great days that we have known; but we find that when it is with our children that we talk it is a hard matter to make them understand. We and our fathers before us lived much the same life, but they with their railway trains and their steamboats belong to a different age. It is true that we can put history-books into their hands, and they can read from them of our weary struggle of two and twenty years with that great and evil man. -

1. Introduction to Historical Monetary and Financial Statistics for Sweden: Exchange Rates, Prices, and Wages, 1277–2008
1. Introduction to Historical Monetary and Financial Statistics for Sweden: Exchange rates, prices, and wages, 1277–2008 Rodney Edvinsson, Tor Jacobson and Daniel Waldenström 1.1. Background to the project This book presents new evidence on the long-run evolution of Sweden’s monetary and financial system, beginning in the Middle Ages and leading up to the present day. These new series have been generated as part of a research project run by Sveriges Riksbank, Historical Monetary and Financial Statistics for Sweden. In this project, a group of academic scholars from the disciplines of economic history and economics have compiled existing evidence and assembled new data. The present volume presents chapters dealing with exchange rates, consumer prices and wages. The overall ambition of this project has been to construct time series that are con- sistent over time and adjusted so as to fit the definitions that are applied today. There is a great difference between compiling contemporary statistics, for which data are often easily accessible, and historical statistics, where the availability of data is more of a problem. Linking long-run time series requires not only an understanding of their economic importance but also thorough knowledge of the relevant historical circumstances under which the data were generated in the past. Needless to say, this makes great demands of the researchers compiling these series. History offers empirically oriented economists an indispensable substitute for sci- entists’ laboratories. Having comparable series that span extensive time periods will greatly facilitate long-term analysis of a number of important issues. For example, the relation between money supply and inflation, or detecting specific long-run pat- terns in the macroeconomy, require that data are consistent and comparable across 12 Exchange rates, prices, and wages, 1277–2008 Th e Gate Coin (1885), by Johan August Malmström (1829–1901), a Swedish artist associated with the Symbolist movement. -

Enlightened Monarchy” in Practice

Reforms, Ceremonies, Self-Fashioning and the Entanglement of Ideals and Values in Late Eighteenth-Century Sweden Henrika Tandefelt This article sets out to study the entanglement of different political, ideological and moral ideals and traditions in the Kingship of Gustav III, King of Sweden 1772–1792. Political thinking and practice in Eighteenth-Century Europe offered many elements and examples that different monarchs could apply in their own particular circumstances. Gustav III was one of the European Kings that openly supported the French enlightened thinkers fashioning himself as a Reformer-King. He was also very influenced by the French culture over all, and the culture of the traditional royal court in particular. In addition the Swedish political history with a fifty-year period of decreased royal power before the coup d’état of Gustav III in 1772 influenced how the European trends and traditions were put into practice. The article pursues to understand the way different elements were bound up together and put to action by the King in his coup d’état 1772, his law reforms in the 1770s and in the establishment of a court of appeal in the town Vasa in Ostrobothnia in 1776 and the ceremonial, pictorial and architectural projects linked to this. In this article I examine what has been called the enlightened absolutism of the Swedish king Gustav III (1746–1792) during his reign of 1772–1792. Gustav III’s reign began with a royal coup d’état in August 1772 and ended with the king being murdered during a masquerade ball at the Royal Opera in Stockholm in March 1792. -

On Some Similarities in the Status of Kashubian and Irish
US-China Foreign Language, July 2016, Vol. 14, No. 7, 465-473 doi:10.17265/1539-8080/2016.07.001 D DAVID PUBLISHING On Some Similarities in the Status of Kashubian and Irish Alina Szwajczuk University of Szczecin, Szczecin, Poland The objective of the paper is to delineate apparent similarities in the status of Kashubian and the Irish language. History-wise, both languages experienced a significant language loss, a struggle for survival, and the legal attempt to keep the languages alive. In fact, both constitute minority languages while this is solely the former one that enjoys the official status of a regional language. The latter is an official language within the Republic of Ireland and the European Union. Apart from a short historical overview of the two languages, the Kashubian language will be analyzed on the basis of the Polish legislation and the reports compiled by the Council of Europe with reference to the commitments made by Poland pertaining to the implementation of provisions stipulated in Part III of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages. The Irish language will be viewed, within the national scope, from the perspective of the 2003 Official Languages Act, the 20-year strategy for the Irish language 2010–2030, and the 2012 Gaeltacht Act. The aspects considered herein will include mainly: the application of the languages within the judicial and administrative context, the presence of the said languages in education, as well as within the national context. The following analysis shall not be deemed as exhaustive and is solely supposed to present some similarities in history and language preservation mechanisms.
