Abstract:
This article reconstructs where, when and how Celtic speakers adopted beekeeping on the basis of the Celtic apicultural vocabulary. Following a short introduction giving the archaeological and historical background of beekeeping, it is argued that Celtic inherited a lexicon for bee produce from Proto-Indo-European (PIE), but not for bees or beehives. The various external sources and internal derivations for the remaining words in the apicultural lexicon are then employed to reconstruct in what periods and from what sources Celtic speakers adopted beekeeping. This reconstruction demonstrates th

Abstract:
The paper discusses elements of Celtic origin present in contemporary Polish vocabulary. Polish did not have any direct contacts with the Celtic languages, however, some elements of Celtic (i.e. Irish, Scottish Gaelic, Welsh, Breton) origin entered it via other languages, especially English and French. Additionally, several early borrowings from Continental Celtic spread through Latin, and subsequently the Romance languages, to other languages, including Polish, thus becoming internationalisms of Celtic origin. For the purpose of this paper all such indirect borrowings will be referred to as ‘

Abstract:
Ferdinand de Saussure recognized that in Latin (and Greek) adjectives containing tautosyllabic a-diphthongs that have meanings associated with deviations from a norm are over-represented. 2 He called these deviations infirmités, 3 and said that in general, they represented crooked versus straight ('ópθóς ouδεξιóς', Rec. 595). I should make it clear from the outset that Saussure's approach was purely synchronic (to use his own term): he inspected the Latin and Greek lexica and identified those words that fit his categories. He did not perform even a rudimentary statistical analysis, so 'overrep

Abstract: Asser’s deep roots in the Celtic Latin tradition have received recent attention as a source of his literary craftsmanship. For most of the twentieth century, everything Celtic and/or hagiographic in Asser’s Vita Ælfredi was treated as a lamentable weakness. Baffled by the way Asser interlaces allusions to Einhard, hagiographic clichés, and chiasmic echoes of his own words, the historian Galbraith mistook wordplay for forgery. Reading the Vita Ælfredi as literature, Walter Berschin advances the current paradigm shift in attitudes towards Asser’s achievement, enabling modern readers to

The final aim is to introduce Goidelic data into the described scheme of semantic shift.

Following a decline over the twentieth century, Breton has seen an increase in revival efforts, including Breton-medium education. This study investigates the effect of the language transmission gap on the morphosyntax of verbs. Fieldwork was undertaken with three distinct age groups: older native speakers (aged over 65), and two groups which make up a younger generation of speakers: children in Breton-medium education, and young adults who have been schooled in Breton. The question of word order and the placement of verbs in Breton has been controversial, largely because it is complex and var

Recent reductions in healthcare funding in the United States has pressured clinical laboratories to provide the same quality of diagnostic testing with fewer resources. Testing cascades have been developed to assist in the diagnosis of various illnesses, which use fewer tests and subsequently reduce costs. However, the cost effectiveness of a celiac disease (CD) testing cascade compared to a panel is currently unknown. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine if a CD testing cascade was equivalent to a panel in identifying patients deemed likely for CD, and to compare their cost e

This thesis presents an analysis of the English-language work of three Welsh writers during the eighteenth century, spanning the period of the 1750s to 1794. During this period, the British state consolidated its power following the last of the significant internal uprisings in 1745, and attempted to create a British nation with internal unity. Such a unity entailed a renegotiation of older national identities as subjects attempted to partake of multiple identities simultaneously. In Wales, the manifestation of multiple identities was especially clear, as the language of the state did not acco
