The Decomposition of the Traditional Morality as an Assumption of the European Nihilism
Šlosiariková, Katarína
In: , p. 5 - 17. ISBN:
Abstract
If we symbolically attempted to clarify the course which has eventuated into the current “global crisis” especially in the field of examination of the dichotomy of life and death, the most appropriate statement would be the famous Nietzsche’s figural sentence: “God is dead.” Nietzsche was the first philosopher who exposed the European nihilism relating to fall of universal values and decomposition of traditional morality. Nietzsche’s philosophy and work is still very current that’s why it is really vital and purpose-made for our needs. Decomposition of traditional morality and destruction of metaphysical center are both events, in which we should look for the reasons and purpose of the European nihilism that Nietzsche supposed.

The Divergence of the Etymologic Interpretations of the Hornad River Name on the Backround of the Historical and Ethnic Development
Góotšová, Andrea
In: , p. 30 - 35. ISBN:
Abstract
The author focuses attention on etymological interpretations of the Hornad River name that more (non)linguists have dealt with. By illustrating particular divergent concepts and consecutive (non)identification with them author clarifies the patchwork of many unsatisfactory interpretations. In demonstrating of own interpretation it took into consideration the historical development of the investigated site, the outcomes of recently realized archaeological research. The interpretation of Š. Ondruš was also very helpful. The author identifies with the theories endorsing the Slavonic origin of the river name, because she is confident that the coming foreign ethnics took over the existing and in the communication process working name which they subsequently adjusted and adapted to the sound needs of the given language. According to authors opinion the Hornad River acquired its name according to the appellative hora (gora) < adj. horný (gor-ъn-) with suffix -at:-ad, in a pre-historical reconstruction Gorъn-ad, Gornad.

General and Specific Aspects of the Term Construction in Linguistics
Rašová, Dominika
In: , p. 36 - 44. ISBN:
Abstract
Zaujímavý pohľad na gramatiku jazyka predstavuje konštrukčná gramatika. V istom zmysle ide o prístup k syntaxi, v ktorom sa nerozlišujú syntaktické pravidlá a lexikón gramatiky. Teoreticky a metodologicky sa vyhraňuje od 80. rokov minulého storočia, a to najmä v západoeurópskych krajinách a v USA. Zástancovia tejto koncepcie chápu gramatiku ako komplex konštrukcií, čiže pevných syntaktických jednotiek, ktoré fungujú ako výstavbové prostriedky v produkcii konkrétnych jazykových výpovedí. Konštrukcie sú v jazykovom systéme usporiadané v zložitých hierarchizovaných štruktúrach zahŕňajúcich lexikálne jednotky a morfologické pravidlá, ktorých uplatnením sa produkujú schematické syntaktické konštrukcie s viac či menej zložitou vnútornou štruktúrou. Konštrukčná gramatika odhaľuje kombinačné postupy v konštrukciách, dekonštruuje texty a nachádza skutočné predpoklady použitia a produkcie konštrukcií. Každá konštrukcia je bilaterálnou jednotkou, ktorá spája formu, význam či funkciu danej jednotky do jedného konvenčne chápaného celku. Z funkčného, ale aj z pragmaticko-komunikačného hľadiska sú základné princípy konštrukčnej gramatiky relevatné pri poznávaní konvenčnej jazykovej vybavenosti rodeného hovoriaceho, vychádzajúcej zo všeobecných kognitívnych procesov a komunikačných cieľov.

(Not)categorisation of Jiddish into the Stratification Model of German and Slovak Language
Zajacová, Tamara
In: , p. 45 - 54. ISBN:
Abstract
Der Artikel Die (Nicht)Einreihung des Jiddischen in das Stratifikationsmodell der deutschen und slowakischen Sprache beschäftigt sich mit der Entwicklung, Aufgabe und Funktion vom Jiddischen, der Sprache der Juden im Mittel- und Osteuropa. Im vorliegenden Artikel befasse ich mich mit der Entstehung und Entwicklung vom Phänomen des Jiddischen in der deutschen und slowakischen Sprachumwelt und ich analysiere die Möglichkeit, beziehungsweise Unmöglichkeit der Einreihung des Jiddischen in das Stratifikationsmodell der beiden Sprachen aus der diachronen sowie der synchronen Sicht. Die präsentierte Analyse stellt die historische Entwicklung des Jiddischen von einer umgangssprachlichen Varietät des Deutschen bis die Existenz als einer selbstständigen Sprache mit allen sprachlichen Funktionen, vor. Der Versuch der Einreihung des Jiddischen in das Stratifikationsmodell der slowakischen Sprache ist nicht gelungen, deswegen bin ich der Meinung, dass das Jiddische in der Slowakei in der Form einer selbstständigen Sprache – des Ostjiddischen existiert. Der Versuch der Einreihung des Jiddischen in das Stratifikationsmodell der deutschen Sprache hat die Notwendigkeit der zeitlichen Differenzierung bestätigt (aus der diachronen Sicht war das Jiddische „nur“ eine umgangssprachliche Form der deutschen Sprache, aus der synchronen Sicht geht es um eine selbstständige Sprache).

Messianic Tendencies in Dramas of Samuel Ormis
Kelčíková, Petra
In: , p. 55 - 63. ISBN:
Abstract
Der Messianismus figuriert in der slowakischen Romantik als das Phänomen, das mit dem zeitigen lyrischen oder philosophischen Denken verbunden ist. Es wird gezeigt, dass man messianistische Tendenzen auch in den dramatischen Texten betrachten kann. Im Artikel befasst sich man mit der Interpretation der messianistichen Merkmale im dramatischen Werk von Samulel Ormis (1824 – 1875). Man betont, dass der Messianismus sehr nahe dem mythologischen Denken steht und zeigt seine Funktionen in den einzelnen Texten von Samuel Ormis. Es handelt sich vor allem um sgn. Philosophie des Sehens, weibliche Element, Motiv von Popolvár, (anti)faustische Dialog, höhere Maß den lyrischen Repliken. In den Texten von Samuel Ormis kann man beobachten, wie die dramatischen Texte differiert von ihren märchenhaften oder historischen Prototexten, mit dem Ziel die messianistische Idee zu betonen.

I Dream, Therefore I Exist : Towards Author's Poetics of Eva Luka (Eva Luka – Diabloň: 2005, Havranjel: 2011)
Urbanová, Eva
In: , p. 91 - 94. ISBN:
Abstract
This review discusses about two worlds in the poetry of Eva Luka, especially in collections Havranjel (2011) and Diabloň (2009). We distinguish two worlds according to binary oppositions “real” (earthly) versus “fantastic” (daemonic): dreamy world and world of fiction which references to real world. The lyrical subject (she) is moving between these worlds. As a line of dreamy world we can recognize an important motive of the water. The lyrical subject is changing into varied forms (mostly animal forms), as if she has to partly die, she gives up part of herself, she can go into this dreamy world only after that and that is a way how to gain the subconscious. We verify, that both of these worlds “live” in a symbiosis, they need each other. It seems that a dream, like a building-element of poetic text, is still the way how to a write an authentically and successful poetry which is also interesting for reading public.
