Introduction Les neuf articles présentés ici sont les regards croisés sur la première thématique abordée dans le cadre d'un projet interdisciplinaire portant sur l'histoire des échanges latino-germaniques de l'antiquité à nos jours, organisé conjointement par les deux centres de recherche EA 4178, CPTC (Centre pluridisciplinaire Textes et Cultures) et EA 4182 (Centre Interlangues, Texte, Image, Langage) à l'Université de Bourgogne. Le projet est né de la conviction que les faits de civilisation ne sont susceptibles d'être appréhendés dans toute leur complexité que par une approche multidimensionnelle. L'histoire de l'Europe a été déterminée en grande partie par les rapports tantôt concurrentiels et meurtriers, tantôt paisibles et coopératifs entre les mondes latin et germanique. Le défi principal que relève ce projet est celui du décloisonnement, tant sur le plan de l'objet traité que sur celui de la méthodologie et des résultats. Les articles suivant...

La nuova rivista accademica Lingue antiche e moderne intende aprire un luogo di riflessione e dialogo privilegiato tra filologi classici e filologi moderni, nello spirito di collaborazione e partnership tra realtà culturali diverse che caratterizza l'Associazione dei Laureati in Lingue dell'Università di Udine, un ateneo che fin dalle origini ha particolarmente valorizzato la presenza dell'insegnamento della Lingua e Letteratura Latina nel corso di laurea in Lingue e Letterature Straniere. L'iniziativa scientifica si segnala perciò come una novità di spiccato orientamento interdisciplinare, in opposizione alla vecchia mentalità accademica che tendeva a favorire la chiusura specialistica e la separazione tra le varie discipline. Particolarmente auspicati dalla rivista saranno perciò i contributi volti ad illuminare gli intrecci e gli scambi culturali che le lingue antiche hanno avuto con le lingue moderne e ad indagare come le letterature dell'antichità hanno cont...

This volume offers a coherent collection of 26 papers presented at an international conference held in November 2010, exploring the latest achievements of formal and comparative linguistics applied to the teaching of Latin. The three sections (syntax and morphology, semantics and pragmatics, history and theory of teaching) compare Latin with different ancient and modern languages, aiming to represent grammar rules as the product of mental processes. The book is addressed to linguists, teachers and students, who are looking for new perspectives to update their approach to classical Latin.

L�etude des composes nominaux dans l�antiquite classique montre des analogies avec la linguistique contemporaine, surtout avec la grammaire generative. Les grammairiens anciens souhaitent elaborer une typologie synchronique, sur la base des caracteristiques flexionnelles des deux membres du compose et la presence de la derivation. L�introduction de criteres syntaxiques et l�identification des caracteristiques particulieres du compose du type bahuvrihi sont les reussites principales des grammairiens indiens. En partant d�une typologie fondamentalement sanskrite, la linguistique latine des XIXe et XXe siecles s�est efforcee d�elaborer de nouvelles theories

Dans leur tentative de comprendre les cultures etrangeres et de cerner les similitudes et les divergences partielles entre le monde du ‘soi’ et celui de ‘l’autre’, les ethnographes de l’Antiquite avaient surtout recours, dans une perspective universaliste et transculturelle, a la confrontation. Dans la Germania de Tacite, deux modes de penser sont particulierement pertinents. Le premier est le procede que Tacite lui-meme appelle ‘interpretatio Romana’ (ch. 43,3). Ce procede consiste a postuler l’existence d’un certain nombre de divinites universelles, qui changent simplement de nom lors du passage d’une culture a l’autre. Ainsi, on trouve chez Tacite la tentative d’identifier les divinites des Germains avec celles des Romains. En revanche, le deuxieme procede consiste en l’opposition absolue des usages et des coutumes des peuples. A de nombreuses reprises dans la Germania, on observe tres distinctement le schema interpretatif du ‘mundus inversus’, celui du ‘monde a l’envers’ selon ...

El desarrollo de la Lingüística general en las últimas décadas ha producido importantes innovaciones en el conocimiento de los mecanismos de funcionamiento de las lenguas antiguas y modernas. Sin embargo, estas innovaciones aún no han entrado completamente en el estudio de la lengua latina. En esta contribución, se proponen ejemplos de aplicación del llamado método neocomparativo a algunos problemas tradicionales de la gramática latina. En particular, el artículo presenta una descripción de la estructura de la sílaba y de la ley del acento latino, una propuesta para analizar la estructura de los morfemas y una introducción a la estructura de los sintagmas.

The main goal of this paper is to show that the flexible word order of Latin does not prevent us from fruitfully applying to Latin a set of constituency tests that have been developed in modern linguistics. Particularly, we will show that, when the concept of constituent is correctly defined, it effectively applies to Latin. We will do so by comparing English, a rigid word order language, Italian, a more flexible word order language and Latin, which is even freer. This paper is organized as follows, In section 1, we offer a brief introduction on the issues that concern the current theoretical debate on the topic. In section 2, we make a general point, namely that constituents may be formed by words that are not contiguous, at least in languages with a flexible word order. In section 3, we discuss various tests that identify VP and TP as possible constituents in Latin: these tests includes pro-form substitution, ellipsis and fragment answers. Section 4 discusses tests to identify the CP layer as a constituent: these include pro-form substitution and extraposition. In the same section we deal with a possible complication arising from the use of pro-form substitution as a constituency test but we show that it does not affect the cases we discuss. Our conclusion in Section 5 is that constituents may be discontinuous in Latin (as in other languages), they may not be easy to identify, but they do exist.

The study of nominal compounds in classical antiquity shows some similarities with contemporary linguistics, especially generative grammar. Ancient grammarians wished to develop a synchronic typology based on the inflectional features of the two members of the compound and the presence of the derivation. The introduction of syntactic criteria and the identification of the special characteristics of bahuvrīhi compounds are the main achievements of the Indian grammarians. Starting from a fundamentally Sanskrit typology, Latin linguistics in the 19th and 20th century attempted to develop new theories.

Summary We owe the emergence of the linguistic idea of phrase to Jan Amos Comenius (1592–1670), in his Grammatica Latino-vernacula (Leszno 1649). He proposes to use the stylistic term ‘phrasis’ with a new linguistic meaning, in order to indicate a group of words arranged in a hierarchical structure, which is an intermediate syntactic unit between the word and the sentence. This idea allows us to back-date by a century the discovery of “groups of words”, which is usually ascribed to Gabriel Girard (1677–1774) in 1747.

I grammatici antichi ci hanno tramandato un gruppo di etimologie cosiddette 'per antifrasi': nelle quali cioe Pinterpretazione fa appello, inaspettatamente, al significato contrario rispetto a quello dell parola da spiegare. Tale procedimento e impiegato in maniera particolarmente sistematica da Elio Stilone, il fondatore della filologia latina. L'esempio pi famoso e lucus quia umbra opacusparum luceat et ludus quia sit longissime a lusu et Ditis quia minime dives (fr. 59 Fun.). In modo simile yengono spiegate da Stilone le parole Manes, caelum, miles, Ordinarius e simultas.

In this paper, the history of the studies on Latin nominal compounding is outlined. In the first part, Th. L. gives an overview of the development from the ancient grammarians to the beginning of scientific research in 19 century. In delineating the progress achieved by the mostly philological approaches, also the comparative and linguistic contributions are included in the discussion. It was particularly through the neogrammarian perspective that some aspects of Indo-European word formation became also an important factor for studies on Latin compounds. In the second part, R. O. discusses the main innovations that took place in 2(? century. While the historical research in the traditional fields of typology and stylistics went on, two new paradigms of general lingusitics shed new light on the synchronic side of compounding. The first attempts to investigate the phenomenon of Latin composition as a system were elaborated by structural linguistics. This perspective was carried on by generative grammar, whose most important progress was the formulation of word formation rules and the discussion of their interaction with other components of grammar.
