Roką atvejį, nebuvo nurodoma, matyt, ir nebuvo žinoma“7. vaicekaus- kas straipsnyje priėjo prie išvados, kad rinkinio giesmės padeda „labiau argumentuoti, kad Palangos Juzėje esančios giesmės apie šventuosius yra va- lančiaus autorystės“, tačiau „Kantičkų „Naujų giesmių“ skyriuje, kur buvo įtraukta giesmė apie šv. Paulių, kitų giesmių apie šventuosius autorystė lie- ka nepatvirtinta/nežinoma“8. Buvo nustatyta, kad iš atsiradusių penkių va- lančiaus giesmių „iki šiol apskritai nežinomos buvo keturios giesmės – apie šv. joną krikštytoją, šv. Benediktą, šv. Baltramiejų ir šv. agotą“, o giesmė apie šv. Povilą (Paulių) nors ir buvo spausdinama Kantičkose nuo 1875 m., tačiau ji nebuvo priskirta valančiui9. aptiktas dar vienas valančiaus gies- mių rankraštis leidžia patvirtinti vaicekausko mintį, kad jis rašė origina- lias giesmes apie šventuosius, ir Palangos Juzėje esančios giesmės tikrai yra vyskupo parašytos, dabar tik reikėtų jas detaliai ištirti ir nustatyti jų būdin- guosius bruožus.

  • Ilga Jansone, Anna Stafecka ATLAS of the BALTIC
    DOI: 10.11649/abs.2013.034 Acta Baltico-Slavica, 37 SOW, Warszawa 2013 Ilga Jansone, Anna Stafecka Latvian Language Institute of the University of Latvia Riga ATLAS OF THE BALTIC LANGUAGES: PLANT NAMES OF SLAVONIC ORIGIN Latvian and Lithuanian are the only Baltic languages still alive. They both have his- torically developed regional territorial dialects. Traditionally, three Latvian dialects are distinguished. Middle dialect is spoken in Kurzeme, Vidzeme and Zemgale. For the Livo- nian dialect, the area of distribution is Northern Kurzeme and North Western Vidzeme. High Latvian dialect is used in the eastern part of Latvia. The Latvian dialects are further divided into 500 small territorial units called subdialects which are united in certain groups. Lithuanian language has two main dialects: Aukshtaitian and Zhemaitian. Lithu- anian dialects are also divided into groups of subdialects, these groups containing more than 700 smaller dialectal units. Historical regional dialects are relatively well-preserved both in Latvia and Lithuania. Nevertheless, nowadays they are disappearing. This was the reason why the dialectologists of the Latvian Language Institute of the University of Latvia, and the Department of Language History and Dialectology of the Institute of the Lithuanian Language, have developed a joint project entitled Atlas of the Baltic Languages, which is intended to demonstrate the close kinship of these two Baltic languages. In 2009, the pilot project volume of the Atlas of the Baltic Languages, including 12 geolinguistic maps

Nr. 4(90), p. 309–319, © Lietuvos mokslų akademija, 2012 Konstantino Sirvydo Punktai sakymų (1629, 1644): išsamių tyrinėjimų pradžia KRISTINA RUTKOVSKA Vilniaus universitetas, Polonistikos centras, Universiteto g. 3, LT-01513 Vilnius El. paštas: [email protected] Straipsnis skirtas pirmai originaliai lietuviškai postilei – K. Sirvydo Punktams sakymų, išleistiems 1629 m. (I dalis) ir 1644 m. (II dalis; leidybai parengta Jono Jaknavičiaus). Šis svarbus lietuvių rašytinis paminklas iki šiol nebuvo išsamiau tirtas. Iš pateiktos Punktų sakymų tyrinėjimų apžvalgos matyti, kad dažniausiai buvo aprašomi tik kai kurie kalbos ir retorikos aspektai. Šiame straipsnyje aptariamas postilės originalu- mas, biblinių ir kitų citatų šaltiniai, lietuviško teksto vertimo į lenkų kalbą ypatumai. Tyrimo metu išsamiai remtasi lietuvių ir lenkų mokslininkų darbais šia tema. Raktažodžiai: senieji raštai, postilė, Biblijos vertimas, Sirvydas ĮVADAS Konstantino Sirvydo knygos ir jo sakyti pamokslai dažnai minimi įvairiuose rašytiniuose šal- tiniuose. Archyviniai dokumentai, Vaclovo Biržiškos paskelbti bibliografijos šaltiniai [1, 244– 254], Karolio Estreichero surinkta bibliografija [2, 357–361] ir bibliografijos žinyno Nowy Korbut papildymai [3, 323] rodo, kad Konstantino Sirvydo vardas ir nuopelnai buvę žinomi ne tik teologams, bet ir lietuvių kalbos ir kultūros mylėtojams. Konstantino Sirvydo biografijos faktus, užfiksuotus jėzuitų ordino kataloguose, pirmieji savo darbuose paminėjo N. Sotvelas [4] ir S. Rostovskis [5]. 1739 m. garsiajame J.

  • 2 Euro Coin Dedicated to the Lithuanian Language
    LITHUANIAN COMMEMORATIVE EURO COINS 2 euro coin dedicated to the Lithuanian language Celtic languages Celtic Germanic languages languages Romance languages Slavic LITHUANIAN Latvian Old Prussian, Sudovian, Curonian, Semigallian and Selonian Curonian, Sudovian, Old Prussian, Greek Baltic languages Indo-Iranian languages Proto-Indo-European THE LITHUANIAN LANGUAGE Introduction The Lithuanian language is not only one of the 24 offi cial lan- guages of the European Union, but it is also one of the most archaic European languages, belonging to the Baltic branch of the Indo-European language family. Retaining many archa- ic features, Lithuanian is comparable to such dead languages as Sanskrit, Ancient Greek and Latin; hence sometimes it is even referred to as a living fossil. Not for nothing did Antoine Meillet, a well-known French linguist of the early 20th c., state that ‘anyone wishing to hear how Indo-Europeans spoke should come and listen to a Lithuanian peasant’. History and Research According to data collected by historians, people speak- ing the Baltic languages set- tled in the Baltic region in the 2nd millennium BCE. In the 6th–7th c. CE, the Lithua- nian and Latvian languages diverged, thus from this point in time we can begin talking about the history of the Lithuanian language. Lithuanian and Latvian are sister languages, stemming from the same branch; how- ever, nowadays they are so far apart that Latvians and Lithuanians do not under- stand each other without specialised learning. Even though in the Middle Ages the Lithuanian people had established the largest European state, the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, the plight of the Lithuanian language throughout history was often in a situation that was neither simple nor easy, as the language did not become the offi cial lan- guage of the state.

He was to interview witnesses on the spot over a disputed property case between a boyar of His Majesty Piotr Sumarok and Eišiškės subject Sieńka Ivaškavič. The judicial body, headed by the Marshal2 of His Majesty Maciej Vojciechavič Kločka, “ordered Sumarok and Sieńka Ivaškavič not to go to those witnesses beforehand, but join the decki”. Sumarok asked permission not to join the decki, but to stay in Vilnius. What a surprise it was for the decki when he met Sumarok on the road to Eišiškės “al- ready going back from witnesses”. The court offi cial asked the plaintiff : «“Sumarok, where are the witnesses?”, – and he pointed out the witnesses in a birchwood. Then, when the witnesses stood in front of me and wanted to confess, Sumarok started talking to them in Lithuanian (emphasis mine. – A.Dz.) and asked them: “For God’s sake do not betray me, and what I promised I will give you, and will not betray you”».

  • Lithuanian Lexicography in the 21St Century: Quo Vadis?
    Jolanta Zabarskaitė Lithuanian lexicography in the 21st century: quo vadis? 1. A few facts about the Lithuanian lexicography The Lithuanian lexicographical tradition dates back to the 16th century. Authored by Konstantinas Sirvydas, a professor at Vilnius University, the first dictionary was pub- lished circa the year 1620. It was a trilingual Polish–Lithuanian–Latin dictionary entitled Dictionarium Trium Linguarum (Pakalka 1997). As far as Lithuanian philology is concerned, the voluminous thesaurus called The Dic- tionary of the Lithuanian Language (further LKŽ) is of particular relevance; back in 1930, a national Dictionary Desk was set up to compile the dictionary. This desk has even- tually evolved into the Institute of the Lithuanian Language, which operates Lithuania's only Centre of Lexicography. The Centre of Lexicography specialises in theoretical as- pects of lexicology and lexicography, the lexicon and semantics of Lithuanian, monolin- gual and multilingual lexicography, electronic lexicography and bilingual dictionaries of lesser used languages. The Centre of Lexicography also deals with the prospects of fu- ture dictionaries and has established three new pillars (see Zabarskaitė 2009, 135-147). 2. The first pillar: a new live for classical lexicographic resources The biggest work in Lithuanian linguistics of the 20th century is The Dictionary of the Lithuanian Language (LKŽ I-XX/1941-2002). The final 20th volume of this was released in 2002, completing the work of several generations of linguists. The Dictionary serves as a source of national identity and linguistic investigation of the development of written and spoken Lithuanian and targets the world community working in the humanities and society at large.

  • The Literary Heritage of Jesuits of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth
    journal of jesuit studies 5 (2018) 421-440 brill.com/jjs The Literary Heritage of Jesuits of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth Barbara Milewska-Waźbińska University of Warsaw [email protected] Abstract Since 1565, the Society of Jesus promoted education in the humanities. The vast majority of the Polish nobility received their education in Jesuit colleges. Jesuit preachers, writ- ers, poets, authors of heraldic and emblem works—derived mostly from the nobility— were understandably deeply involved in politics. The legacy of the most outstanding Jesuit authors testifies to their active participation in public life. In keeping with the specifics of the Polish case, their literary production emphasizes not only the vita ac- tiva, but also animus civilis. Political and historical themes, as well as religious motifs, played a significant role in Jesuit works. The Society’s activities in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth produced important works in various genres of literature, a significant portion of which was in Latin. Their poetry and prose is characterized by involvement in socio-political issues: the stormy political events and wars of the seventeenth century had a considerable effect on the compositions of the leading Jesuit authors. Keywords Society of Jesus – Polish nobility – Latinitas – occasional literature Jesuits were actively engaged in the political and social life of the Polish- Lithuanian Commonwealth, which came into existence in 1569 after the Union of the Kingdom of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, through the two centuries of their presence there. Their literary legacy leaves little doubt as to their substantial contribution to the cultural heritage of the country.1 In 1 The most recent synthesis of the legacy of Polish Jesuits is offered in the volume edited by Ire- na Stasiewicz-Jasiukowa, Wkład jezuitów do nauki i kultury w Rzeczpospolitej Obojga Narodów © milewska-waźbińska, 2018 | doi:10.1163/22141332-00503005 This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the prevailing cc-by-nc license at the time of publication.
