Meeting Description:
Names in motion.
Adaptation processes of person and place names in areal, diachronic, and
social fields of tension
Conference, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Namenforschung
As proper names refer directly to individual objects, they crucially depend on
stable, fixed relationships between form and referent. However, such fixed
references open up fields of tension when contexts change for people who bear
and use the names. Changing contexts may prompt names to be formally adapted,
meaning that – at least temporarily – names may lead a double life. The aim of
this conference is to identify factors that motivate, condition, and constrain
adaptation processes of person and place names to changing or varying
circumstances from a synchronic or diachronic perspective.
