07.07.2021 Digitaler Vortrag des "Marburg Celtic Seminar" 12.07.2021 Elena Parina - Loanwords in Medieval and Early Modern Welsh Translated Texts

Im Rahmen der digitalen Vortragsreihe "Marburg Celtic Seminar: Textual Transfers in Medieval and Early Modern Ireland and Wales" findet am 12. Juli 2021 um 18 Uhr der Vortrag von Dr. Elena Parina (Philipps-Universität Marburg) statt.

Loanwords in Medieval and Early Modern Welsh Translated Texts

Loanwords are the most obvious result of language contact. Since translations can be understood as specific loci of language contact, the usage of loanwords therein presents several challenging research questions. My talk will concentrate on loanwords in the texts found in Oxford, Jesus College MS. 119 (The Book of the Anchorite of Llanddewibrefi, 1346), and in some Welsh texts from the 16th century. It will address issues such as the concept of a multiple origin of loanwords, their distribution and frequency in the texts, and the special character of some loanwords in Ymborth yr Enaid.
