The book Nomi delle organizzazioni non profit in Italia nella prospettiva crematonomastica [Names of the non profit organisations in Italy in the chrematonomastic perspective] consists of two main parts. The first, theoretical one (the initial chapters, considerations about the marketing functions of the non-profit organisations’ names, as well as the final chapter) and the analytical, central one (chapter Analisi del corpus). divided into five parts (onomastic, formal, rhetorical, semantic, thematic).The most important conclusions are the following: the confirmation of the marketing function of non–profit organisations’ names and, more generally, social chrematonyms, and their ensuing affinity to marketing chrematonyms; the confirmation of the chrematonomastic utility in foreign language didactics (at least on the basis of a wide variety of semantic types, as well as the formal ones); a rich repertory of naming and – more generally – linguistic creations made by authors of Italian non–profit organisations’ names compatible with present tendencies of the modern Italian language; the demonstration of general tendencies within the analysed material and quantitative data with frequent (e.g., those based on the adverb insieme or on the names of John Paul II) or rare uses (e.g., those evoking the Appennini oronym); the formulation of significant determinants in the process of creating a new social chrematonym, in particular a non–profit organisation name; the proof of the significance of chrematonomastics, its equivalence in relation to anthroponomastics and toponomastics, particularly in the era of modern civilisation changes and the negation of the concept of chrematonomastic ‘rubbish bin’ in onomastic research.

This handbook of Old Germanic toponyms is a comprehen-sive collection of Germanic, possibly Germanic and non-Germanic geographical names of Magna Germania and the adjacent provinces. The selection of headwords is based on Hermann Reichert´s Lexikon der altgermanischen Namen (LaN). In the articles, the current state of research concer-ning the localization of the ancient places (, rivers, forests and mountains) and concerning the etymology and word for¬mation of the toponyms is documented and critically dis-cussed. Die vorliegende Monographie behandelt systematisch die altgermanischen Orts-, Fluss-, Wald- und Bergnamen bis einschließlich 600 n.Chr. sowie auch die ungermanischen Toponyme Germaniens; in den einzelnen Artikeln wird neben Lokalisierung und Kontext der mit den Toponymen bezeichneten Örtlichkeiten hauptsächlich die Etymologie der Toponyme selbst in Augenschein genommen und die verschiedenen Deutungsversuche der Namen kritisch beleuchtet. Dieser Band setzt somit die Reihe der Interpretationsbände zu Reichert´s Lexikon der altgermanischen Namen (2 Bde.) fort (zuletzt erschienen: Sitzmann / Grünzweig 2008, Die altgermanischen Ethnonyme - ein Handbuch zu ihrer Etymologie).Der vorliegende Band ist ein umfassendes etymologisches Handbuch der altgermanischen Toponyme sowie der unger-manischen Toponyme Germaniens, wofür als Grundlage das Lexikon der altgermanischen Namen (LaN) von Her-mann Reichert diente. Unter den alphabetisch angeordne-ten Lemmata werden die Belege mit Angabe der wichtigsten Lesarten sowie eine Kurzausführung zu Lokalisierung und Kontext gegeben. In den darauf folgenden etymologischen Kommentaren wurde versucht, einen forschungsgeschichtli-chen Überblick über die Literatur zu den jeweiligen Namen durch ein kritisches Referat der bisher geäußerten etymolo-gischen Deutungen mit Wertung nach Wahrscheinlichkeit zu geben.

Personal names provide fascinating testimony to Babylonia's multi-ethnic society. This volume offers a practical introduction to the repertoire of personal names recorded in cuneiform texts from Babylonia in the first millennium BCE. In this period, individuals moved freely as well as involuntarily across the ancient Middle East, leaving traces of their presence in the archives of institutions and private persons in southern Mesopotamia. The multilingual nature of this name material poses challenges for students and researchers who want to access these data as part of their exploration of the social history of the region in the period. This volume offers guidelines and tools that will help readers navigate this difficult material. The title is also available Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Taal wordt gevormd door de taalgebruikers. Voor abstracte zaken worden veelal verwijzingen naar het gewone, concrete leven gebruikt. Die zaken ziet en zag men om zich heen. Zo zijn er in de verschillende tijdperken uitdrukkingen ontstaan die de belevingswereld van de toen levende mens weergaven. In dit boek wordt een groot aantal uitdrukkingen in samenhang met de verschillende tijdperken behandeld en uitgelegd. Wie weet nog waar uitdrukkingen als 'hoge ogen gooien', 'te berde brengen' en 'een bok schieten' vandaan komen? Een register geeft de lezer de mogelijkheid om snel de oorsprong en verklaring van zo'n zegswijze te vinden. Verhaal halen is bedoeld voor iedereen die belangstelling heeft voor de oorsprong en de betekenis van onze Nederlandse uitdrukkingen.
