Description
Proper names are our own What role do proper names play in our lives and in society? A book that draws on the concepts of the 'Ostrava Onomastic School' shows that their specificity is far from being exhausted by the capitalization rules. The authors take a comprehensive view of the topic: they reflect on disputes and the diversity of approaches within the discipline itself, focus on the relationship between proper names and text, and unravel the complex ties between onomastics and memory, politics, literature, history, and marketing. In their research, they also account for the latest developments in linguistics — utilizing text corpora, quantitative analyses, and not neglecting the popular linguistic landscape.
