“…Curiously enough, the translator's difficulty in preservmg the symbolism of genders, and the cognitive irrelevance of this difficulty, appears to be the main topic of the earliest Slavic original work, the preface to the first translation of the Evangeliarium, made in the early 86o's by the founder of Slavic letters and liturgy, Constantine the Philosopher, and recently restored and interpreted by A. Vaillant. 8 "Greek, when translated into another language, cannot always be reproduced identically, and that happens to each language being translated," the Slavic apostle states. "Masculine nouns as Roman ]akobson 1rorap.6'> 'river ' and &.vri/p 'star' in Greek, are feminine in another language as pha and 3BhAa in Slavic."…”

“…generative grammar, optimality theory, etc.). From the beginning I approached this work as an attempt to improve on the classical monographs of André Vaillant (1948), Paul Diels (1963), andHorace Lunt (1974). The improvements are in the direction of utmost completeness, explicitness, and deliberate consistency with the corpus of texts and the grammatical dictionaries.…”

“…the result of a comparative-historical reconstruction, following an established tradition in OCS studies that goes back to the classical grammar by Leskien (1871). In the few grammars whose goal is synchronic description (Vaillant;Lunt 1974), the canon is introduced implicitly, as if it were an obvious empirical given. Accordingly, linguistic problems encountered in constructing a canonical grammar remain mostly hidden from the reader.…”

This book contains a synchronic grammar and grammatical dictionaries of Old Church Slavic. The framework is based on a substantially revised version of the classical descriptive methodology. The intent is to improve on the classical monographs by Vaillant, Diels, Lunt in the direction of utmost completeness, explicitness, and deliberate consistency between the grammatical structure, the corpus of texts (limited to the seven oldest OCS manuscripts), and the dictionaries. The grammar is intended as a set of rules that provide a complete characterization of any OCS wordform. Peculiarities in the language of each source are described as systematic departures from canonical OCS, a conventional constructed variety primarily described by the grammar. The book is addressed to linguists working in Slavic studies, as well as to specialists in the general theory of grammar, especially phonologists and morphologists. Data from the dictionaries are freely available as a searchable database online here.

AccoRDING TO Bertrand Russell, "no one can understand the word 'cheese' unless he has a nonlinguistic acquaintance with cheese." 1 If, however, we follow Russell's fundamental precept and place our "emphasis upon the linguistic aspects of traditional philosophical problems," then we are obliged to state that no one can understand the word "cheese" unless he has an acquaintance with the meaning assigned to this word in the lexical code of English. Any representative of a cheese-less culinary culture will understand the English word "cheese" if he is aware that in this language it means "food made of pressed curds" and if he has at least a linguistic acquaintance with "curds!' We never consumed ambrosia or nectar and have only a linguistic acquaintance with the words "ambrosia," "nectar," and "gods"~ the name of their mythical users; nonetheless, we understand these words and know in what contexts each of them may be used.The meaning of the words "cheese," "apple," "nectar," "acquaint-'34
