    Alf Nilsen-Børsskog — The Author Chosen by the Language

    No full text
    This article discusses Alf Nilsen-Børsskog’s four-volume series of novels Elämän jatko [Continuation of life, 2004–2015], seen as the first literary works treating the Kven culture from a native perspective. Nilsen-Børsskog’s novels are analysed as constituting a “counterstory”, a term coined in the postcolonial cultural research paradigm to refer to self-representation. The Kvens have been considered a national minority in Norway since 1999, and their language has been an official minority language since 2005. The present author scrutinizes how Nilsen-Børsskog’s work differs from previous literary descriptions of this minority, often marked by the frequent use of stereotypes of the Kven language and culture

    The Austrian dictionary composed by the Slovenian scho-lar Janez Žiga Valentin Popovič (1705-1774) in the third quarter of the 18th century was only published in 2004, and edited by Richard Reutner, who wrote an extensive introduction to it. The dictionary comprises many language-geographical data for the German language, excellent explanations and many comparisons with much information provided regarding Popovic's mother tongue. The author broad horizon is admirable, especially with regard to the German language area and the linguistic literature of that time.Avstrijski slovar, ki ga je v tretji četrtini 18. stoletja sestavil slovenski učenjak Janez Žiga Valentin Popovič (1705-1774), je izšel šele leta 2004 v uredništvu Richarda Reutnerja, kije k njemu napisal obsežen uvod. Slovar vsebuje mnogo jezikovnogeografskih podatkov za nemščino, odlične razlage in marsikaj primerjalnega, veliko pa se najde tudi v zvezi s Popovičevo materinščino. Občudovanja vredna je avtorjeva razgledanost predvsem po nemškem jezikoslovnem prostoru in po takratni jezikoslovni literaturi

    Multiple Priors And No-Transaction Region

    We study single period asset allocation problems of the investor who maximizes the expected utility with respect to non-additive beliefs. The non-additive beliefs of the investor model the presence of an uncertainty and they are assumed to be consistent with the Maxmin expected utility theory of Gilboa and Schmeidler (1989). The proportional transaction costs are incorporated into the model. We provide the explicit form solutions for the bounds of no-transaction regions which completely determine the optimal policy of the investor. --uncertainty modelling,utility theory,maxmin portfolio selection,transaction costs

    Valentin N. Volóchinov: um filósofo da ciência da linguagem

    No full text
    This text address the work of Russian scholar Valentin N. Vološinov, author of the book Marxism and the Philosophy of Language. The objective is to demonstrate a set of characteristics that place Vološinov as a participant in the critique of science movement, which had its epicenter in Germany, between the years 1840 and 1900. To this end, in addition to a general reflection, which recovers the meaning of the term “criticism” most present in the academic environment of the time, this text considers two points of the much mentioned – and, apparently, somewhat misunderstood – opposition of the Russian thinker to the linguistics of Ferdinand de Saussure, as this linguistics is presented in the Course in General Linguistics. Finally, by way of provocation, this text outlines a few words about the proximity between the epistemological works of Valentin N. Vološinov and Wilhelm Dilthey.Este texto aborda la obra del estudioso ruso Valentin N. Voloshinov, autor de la obra Marxismo y filosofía del lenguaje. El objetivo es demostrar un conjunto de características que sitúan a Voloshinov como participante del movimiento de crítica científica, que tuvo su epicentro en Alemania, entre los años 1840 y 1900. Para ello, además de una reflexión general, que recupera el significado del término “crítica” más presente en el ambiente académico de la época, se consideran dos puntos de la tan mencionada –y, aparentemente, algo incomprendida– oposición del pensador ruso a la lingüística de Ferdinand de Saussure, tal como se presenta esta última en el curso de lingüística general. Al final, a modo de provocación, se esbozan algunas palabras sobre la proximidad entre las obras epistemológicas de Valentin N.
