Linguistic Historiography

The article is devoted to the metacritical component in the scientific heritage of Yu. S. Stepanov (1930–2012) and its significant presence in modern scientific research. Metacriticism is understood as a method of an analytical revision of estab-lished linguistic concepts, opinions, and assessments related to iconic personalities and their views. This method is included in the tools of narrative linguistic historiography, along with the study of the full linguistic heritage corpus created by specific authors in a strictly chronological order, identifying a broad scientific context, ex-ploring the intellectual discourse of the era, a detailed acquaintance with the linguistic journals and collections of the period of interest, restoring the scientist’s library according to his / her writings, reconstructing his / her conceptual chronology, interviewing eyewitnesses of scientific events, students and opponents of key figures in the specific scientific school, etc. In this sense, metacriticism significantly expands its original boundaries as defined in the middle of the 19th century in the course of revising I. Kant’s critical ideas, and is represented in the works by Yu. S. Stepanov with his arguments about the accuracy of interpretations of classical concepts, terms and categories related to the philosophy of language in Russian and foreign scientific publications.

The article is devoted to the consideration of extraterritorial publications on the Chuvash theme. The purpose of the work is to identify the essential features of the foreign layer of the Chuvash book. The conclusions of the work are based on a quantitative and qualitative analysis of bibliographic indexes and a direct study of the books themselves de visu. The authors of the article consider foreign books as an important component of modern Chuvash culture, endowed with communicative, cognitive-cumulative, ethno-presentative and educational functions. Extraterritorial editions of the Chuvash book appeared in the first half of the 19th century, and only by the end of the 20th century they formed an independent layer. At the same time, one should objectively speak of two exteriorics – the Chuvash and by the poet G. Aygi. Each of them is represented by almost 150 publications. The predominant problematic of the foreign language layer of the Chuvash book proper is the Chuvash language. Moreover, its notable aspect is the publication of books in the Chuvash language or their publication with parallel texts in Sweden and Turkey. G. Aygi’s foreign publications are already represented by collections of poems in Russian, published by the publishing house of the artist N. Dronnikov in France. This work is a publication that should provide an introduction to the scientific use of literature that has not yet become the property of the Chuvash Studies. Its task is to promote the full functioning of modern Chuvash science in conjunction with the world one. The authors come to the conclusion that, in general, the foreign layer of the Chuvash book has an enduring value, and many of the scientific publications published in the past are rightly elevated to the rank of classical ones by the scientists.

The purpose of the presented thesis is to show a figure of one of the directors of the Jagiellonian Library in the 19th century, a professor at the Jagiellonian University and historian – Józef Muczkowski. In the thesis, the Professor’s personal life has been presented in chronological order, as well as his achievements in the professional field and his scientific accomplishments. The thesis consists of seven chapters, each dealing with issues related to the individual stages of the Professor’s life. Special attention has been focused on the process of intellectual and scientific development of Józef Muczkowski from his birth, through youth, to the period of holding office of the director of the Jagiellonian Library, and finally up to the last days of his life. Large part of the work is devoted to changes that were implemented by the Professor during the period when he was the Jagiellonian Library director. It concerns, among others, the organisation of library collections and complete reconstruction of the library building which is located within the Collegium Maius edifice. The thesis also introduces a broad spectrum of activities undertaken by the Professor in the political field. Presentation of profiles of his loved ones and relationships that connected him with his family and other people of science constitutes important part of the work because it connects all chapters. The thesis is based largely on unpublished sources, such as manuscripts, numerous fragments of official letters and the Professor’s correspondence. Analysis and interpretation of many types of information sources, followed by their elaboration and organisation, allow to fill the “information gap” regarding the person of Józef Muczkowski. As a result, by recreating Józef Muczkowski’s professional path, the thesis also supplements the information resource of history of the Jagiellonian Library in the first half of the 19th century.

There was a number of even world known philosophers who worked in Zadar in the 19th century. These were: Bottura, Putić, Politeo, Nad i A. Petrić. On the occasion of the anniversary of tne Liberal Arts faculty in Zadar which actually is a succesor od the Zadar high school and lycée from the 19th century the people here remembered at least Iwo eminent philosophers from those times who were in some way the founders of these organizations. These philosophers were P. Bottura and J. Pulić, the teachers in the mentioned schools in Zadar. Our aim is to point out the similarities in the lives of P. Bottura who taught in Zadar and was the headmaster of the high school and lycée and J. Pulić who studied in Zadar and latter replaced Bottura as the headmaster ol the high school. It is shown that both of them were highly estimated by one of the gi-eatest Intellectuals in Dalmatia. N. Tamaseo. They ware given equal honors posthumously. But their interest in language was different. Bottura was interested in language, as he said himself, in order to apply philosophy to grammar which actually was an attempt to found logical Linguist ios. Pulić was primarily interested in language from the si and point ol' the analytical procedures in research as it is done today in the philosophy of science. The author stresses Bottura’s activites in relation lo Ihc contemporary philosophy of language and linguistics while Pullć’s contribution is stressed in relation Io Peirce’s invention of retroduction as a method in scientific discovery procedures

Linguistic Historiography

Este texto exemplifica como os períodos e contextos da história do conhecimento científico podem ser examinados pela perspectiva da Historiografia da Lingüística. Seu objetivo é demonstrar que o historiógrafo, ao lidar com qualquer tema dessa área, deve fornecer uma verdadeira teia explicativa dos fatos. O tema abordado é o da reivindicação de autonomia para o português do Brasil em dicionários produzidos durante a segunda metade do século XIX. Propomos que aspectos referentes aos métodos empregados nessas descrições do léxico brasileiro teriam dificultado a aceitação da reivindicação no período, embora o contexto fosse altamente favorável para sustentá-la. Abstract This paper exemplifies how periods and contexts into the history of scientific knowledge can be examined through the perspective of Linguistic Historiography. Its aim is demonstrate that an explanatory web of facts must be provided by the historiographer when he works with any issue in that area. The issue in focus is the claim of autonomy to Brazilian Portuguese in certain dictionaries that was produced in the second half of the 19th century. According to our hypothesis, some aspects related to the methods applied in those Brazilian lexis descriptions would make the acceptance of that claim difficult in the period, although the context was auspicious to support it.

The herbarium of the 19th-century Neapolitan botanists Vincenzo and Francesco Briganti was acquired by Orazio Comes in 1892 for the Royal Higher School of Agriculture in Naples. Based on a study of the handwriting on their labels, Comes concluded that some of the dried specimens were the sole remains of the herbarium of Domenico Cirillo, the distinguished 18th-century Neapolitan botanist, entomologist and physician. The current arrangement of the specimens not uniform and it is clear that they underwent extensive handling and rearrangement. Some of the exsiccata are preserved in two packets, fixed on sheets bearing a printed label that reads “Herbarium D. Cyrilli”. In an additional label Gaetano Nicodemi’s handwriting and not Cirillo’s as stated by Comes was identified. Other specimens, many of them mounted in a different manner from those in the first group, are arranged in another three packets. Certain characteristics of the herbarium may be explained by the vicissitudes of its history, including a hasty salvage operation. A study of the collection was conducted, including an analysis of the handwritten labels and notes, leading to conclusions that shed light on the significance of the Cirillo collection within the historical and scientific context of 18th-century Naples.

The 19Th Century

Geopolitics and its theoretical formation in the 19th and 20th centuries are still among the most controversial interdisciplinary fields of research today. The biogeographical works of the German geographer Friedrich Ratzel are of fundamental importance for the transformation process of large-scale thinking, ordering and acting. Ratzel is one of the key figures who linked the imperial idea of Lebensraum of the 19th century with the large-scale expansion and extermination concepts of the 20th century, as well as with geopolitical and biopolitical patterns of order that became effective worldwide after 1945. The volume ‘Denken im Raum’ analyses Ratzel's concepts of geography in the scientific context of the 19th century and thus provides key insights for international reception research into his complete works, which is still lacking. With contributions by Mark Bassin, Nicola Bassoni, Edoardo Boria, Patricia Chiantera-Stutte, Isabella Consolati, Ulrike Jureit, Ian Klinke, Matteo Marconi, Carlotta Santini, Hans-Dietrich Schultz and Niels Werber.
