McGuckin explores the lived faith of generations, including sketches of some of the most important theological themes and individual personalities of the ancient and modern Church. He interweaves a personal approach throughout, offering to readers the experience of what it is like to enter an Orthodox church and witness its liturgy. In this astute and insightful book, he grapples with the reasons why many Western historians and societies have overlooked Orthodox Christianity and provides an important introduction to the Orthodox Church and the Eastern Christian World.281.909McGuckin John Anthony886971DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910793907003321The Eastern Orthodox Church3835014UNINA03341nam 2200709 450 991081837400332120200520144314.090-04-26645-310.1163/9789004266452(CKB)3710000000088993(EBL)1633852(SSID)ssj0001080909(PQKBManifestationID)11605297(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001080909(PQKBWorkID)11071576(PQKB)11372461(MiAaPQ)EBC1633852(DLC)17966672(DLC)2013047335(nllekb)BRILL9789004266452(Au-PeEL)EBL1633852(CaPaEBR)ebr10837911(CaONFJC)MIL576014(OCoLC)870646846(PPN)178914673(EXLCZ)99371000000008899320131209d2014 uy| 0engurun| uuuuatxtccrScandoromani remnants of a mixed language /by Gerd Carling ; in collaboration with Lenny Lindell and Gilbert AmbrazaitisLeiden :Brill,2014.1 online resource (310 p.)Brill's studies in language, cognition and culture ;volume 7Description based upon print version of record.90-04-26644-5 Includes bibliographical references and index.Preliminary Material -- 1 Scandoromani: Language and Speakers -- 2 The Sounds of a Mixed Language -- 3 The Interdependence of Adaptation, Derivation, and Inflection in a Mixed Morphology -- 4 Outline of a Syntax -- 5 Conclusion: Support for an Autonomous Model -- Appendix I Vocabulary -- References -- Author Index -- Language Index -- Subject Index.Scandoromani: Remnants of a Mixed Language is the first, comprehensive, international description of the language of the Swedish and Norwegian Romano, also labeled resande/reisende. The language, an official minority language in Sweden and Norway, has a history in Scandinavia going back to the early 16th century. A mixed language of Romani and Scandinavian, it is spoken today by a vanishingly small population of mainly elderly people. This book is based on in-depth linguistic interviews with two native speakers of different families (one of whom is the co-author) as well as reviews of earlier sources on Scandoromani. The study reveals a number of interesting features of the language, as well as of mixed languages in general. In particular, the study gives support to the model of autonomy of mixed languages.Brill's studies in language, cognition and culture ;7.Languages in contactScandinaviaSwedish languageNorwegian languageRomani languageScandinaviaLanguagesLanguages in contactSwedish language.Norwegian language.Romani language.439.7/7Carling Gerd1643576Lindell Lenny1981-1643577Ambrazaitis Gilbert1979-1643578MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910818374003321Scandoromani3988903UNINA
