Abstract Typologically-unexpected overt expletives can be found in a restricted number of non-standard Ibero-Romance null-subject varieties. Historical data suggest that these overt expletives, which in today’s varieties show both discourse-oriented and expletive characteristics, have their origin in 15th century impersonal epistemic constructions. This article argues that it is the expletives’ epistemic origin which gives rise to, and thus explains, their present-day heterogeneous properties, in particular their function as a marker of epistemicity in a number of varieties. Despite undergoing the same mechanisms of change, the variation in modern Ibero-Romance is understood to be a consequence of the different stages and degrees of grammaticalization reached in each variety.

AbstractThe textual transmission of the Crónica de Iria (a historical text written in Galicia in the 15th century) has been controversial in recent years. Its latest editor, José Souto, holds that the original text is the oldest manuscript (C), written in the 15th century by Rui Vázquez. On the other hand, David Mackenzie considered that this manuscript (C) and the seventeenth-century copy (V) come from the lost archetype with different degrees of manipulation. The historical data provided by Fernando López Alsina analysing the reasons for the composition of the Crónica de Iria supports Mackenzie’s analysis. The present article examines the indirect tradition and carries out a careful collation of the texts, aiming to draw more effective conclusions as regards the existing filiation.

<p><span>Periodisasi perawi mulai dikaji sejak abad ke 2 H. untuk keperluan penelitian sanad Hadits dan kritik perawi. Buku-buku indeks periodik paling awal telah terbit di awal abad ke 3 H. Penentuan periodik saat itu masih sangat asumtif dan subjektif dari setiap penulis, belum ada kajian metodologis yang menjadi patokan umum. Embrio teoritis paling awal baru muncul sejak abad ke 7 H oleh Ibn Shalah, yang kemudian menjadi teori utuh pada abad ke 9 H oleh Ibn Hajar. Dalam penelitian ini, originalitas teori Ibn Hajar dalam <em>Taqrib at-Tahdzib</em> ini menjadi konsep klasik dalam periodisasi perawi. Kajian setelah abad itu belum menunjukkan pengembangan yang signifikan, hingga abad ke 15 H saat ini. sehingga pengembangan teori dari konsep klasik oleh Abu Ibrahim berupa tabulasi periodik kemudian menjadi konsep modern. Melalui studi komparasi dan korelasi, peneliti menemukan titik perbedaan dan superioritas kedua konsep tersebut. Konsep klasik adalah hasil analisis data historis, biografi, data pribadi dan data pertemuan perawi yang dirumuskan berdasarkan 6 indikator ke dalam bentuk Buku Indeks Periodik. Sementara konsep modern adalah hasil kalkulasi matematis dari 6 indikator ke dalam bentuk Tabulasi Periodik. Keunggulan konsep klasik adalah kekuatan data historis yang valid, sehingga indeks periodik menjadi prioritas data dalam penetuan periode perawi tertentu. Sementara keunggulan konsep modern terletak pada pendekatan matematis, yang memungkinkan tabulasi menjadi perangkat penentuan periode perawi yang tidak ditemukan data periodiknya sama sekali. </span></p><p>[<strong><span>Periodization of Hadith Narrators: Comparative and Correlation Studies of the Classical and Modern <em>Thabaqat al-Ruwat</em> Concepts</span></strong><span>. The study of the Periodization of Rawi germinated in the 2nd century of Hijriyah, for research on Hadith sanad and Rawi criticism. The earliest periodic index books were published in the early 3rd century of Hijriyah. The earliest theoretical embryos appeared only in the 7th century of Hijriyah by Ibn Salah, which later became a complete theory in the 9th century of Hijriyah by Ibn Hajar. The originality of Ibn Hajar's theory in Taqrib at-Tahdzib became a classical concept in the periodization of Rawi. Studies after that century have not shown significant development, until the 15th century of Hijriyah. The development of the classical concept by Abu Ibrahim, in the form of periodic tabulations, is regarded as a modern concept. Through comparative and correlation studies, we have managed to find a point of difference and superiority between the two concepts. The classic concept is the result of analysis of historical data, biographies, Rawis’ data, and data of their encounters, which are formulated based on 6 indicators into the form of a Periodic Index Book. Meanwhile, the modern concept is the result of mathematical calculations from 6 indicators into the form of Periodic Tabulations. The advantage of the classical concept is the strength of valid historical data, so that the periodic index is the priority of the data in determining the Rawi certain periods. Meanwhile, the advantage of the modern concept is in the mathematical approach, which allows tabulation to be a tool for determining the period of Rawi whose periodic data can’t be found.</span>]</p>

Satra Inscription is one of the inscriptions which have never been wholly studied before, so epigraphy study of the inscription become significant. This research aims to evaluate the information contained in Satra Inscription for the purpose of reconstructing cultural history and placing it in historical context. The methods used in this research consist of data collection, analysis, and interpretation. The data were collected through observation and literature study. Analysis was done using textual critic approach, and interpretation was done by explaining the relevance of Satra Inscription in historical context. The research shows that Satra Inscription is a copied inscription (tinulad), and assumed of being inscribed after the middle of the 15th century AD. The inference is based on the inconsistency between the king’s name and the year mentioned. Palaeography study, the usage, and language pattern of the inscription are also strengthen the inference that Satra Inscription as copied inscription. Textual critic of the inscription shows that the usage of informations contained in Satra Inscription as historical data needs to be carefully used. Prasasti Satra merupakan salah satu temuan prasasti baru yang belum pernah diteliti secara menyeluruh, sehingga kajian epigrafi terhadap prasasti ini menjadi penting. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi informasi yang ada di Prasasti Satra untuk kepentingan rekonstruksi sejarah kebudayaan dan menempatkannya di dalam konteks sejarah. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini meliputi pengumpulan data, analisis data, dan penafsiran data. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi dan studi pustaka. Analisis data dilakukan melalui kritik teks, dan penafsiran data dilakukan dengan memaparkan relevansi Prasasti Satra di dalam konteks sejarah. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa Prasasti Satra merupakan prasasti tinulad, yang penulisannya diduga setelah pertengahan abad ke-15 Masehi. Dugaan tersebut muncul berdasarkan adanya ketidaksesuaian antara penyebutan nama raja dengan angka tahun yang tercantum. Tinjauan dari aspek paleografi, penggunaan, dan pola bahasanya juga menguatkan dugaan tersebut. Kritik teks terhadap Prasasti Satra diperlukan agar tedapat kehati-hatian ketika menggunakan informasi yang terkandung di dalam Prasasti Satra sebagai data sejarah. Kata kunci: prasasti, satra, kritik teks, tinulad.
