Esaúl Ruiz Narbona
This paper focuses on the inflections of Latin feminine names in Old English. Whereas most Latin loanwords are perfectly integrated and behave like Old English words as far as their morphology is concerned, like scientific loans, names can take inflectional endings from both Latin and Old English. Ruiz Narbona (2023) has shown that, in the case of masculine names, the distribution of both types of inflections followed certain clear patterns. Following the model of that study, the analysis of the 125 tokens from the Old English Martyrology shows that certain rules can also be established in the case of feminine names. In general terms, the inflections of these names are modelled after Old English weak n-stems, although nominative inflections are invariably Latin. The case with the more widespread variation is the genitive, where both Old English and Latin inflections are consistently used. The latter, however, are heavily restricted to introductory sections and function solely as post-modifiers.

This article focuses on the role of one of the most fundamental of medieval figures—the scribe, as well as on the products of scribes in the eighth to thirteenth centuries. It chiefly addresses how writing seems to have functioned and been conceived of and how present-day scholarly palaeographical methods do not always adjudicate medieval writing practices sensitively or convincingly. This matters, and especially so in our age of the digital aspect, since the inherited categories of description simply no longer hold force. What constitutes ‘bad handwriting’ then and is it, in fact, a description that can be validated by close analysis of scholarship and medieval writing practices?

There were many ways of calling or naming a person, a place, or other things in Old English: se wæs noe gehaten ‘he is called Noah’, Ioppe hatte sum burh ‘a city was called Joppa’, æt þæm beorge þe mon Athlans nemneð ‘at the mountain which they name (precisely, one names) Atlas’, þe Grecas nemnað paralysis. and we cweðað lyftadl ‘which the Greeks call paralysis, and we call palsy’, his nama is iohannes ‘his name is John’, etc. A clear difference in the use of these verbs and expressions of calling is found between chronicles and homilies. Also, when the contents that describe the same object or theme like false god or the deadly sins, lexical variations or flexible uses of verbs can further become obvious. The aim of this study is to exemplify a variety of expressions of calling found in Old and early Middle English texts, especially in chronicles and homilies, which show syntactic and stylistic continuity with some morphological and lexical alterations. Tables are given to show the choice of each verb form used in each text.
在古英语中，称呼或命名一个人、一个地方或其他事物的方式有很多种:se æs noe gehaten '他被称为诺亚'，Ioppe hatte sum burh '一座城市被称为约帕'，æt þæm george þe mon Athlans nemneð '在他们命名(准确地说是一个名字)阿特拉斯的山上'，þe greas nemnað paralysis。希腊人称之为“瘫痪”，我们称之为“瘫痪”，他的名字是约翰，他的名字是约翰，等等。这些动词的使用和呼召的表达在编年史和讲道中有明显的不同。此外，当内容描述相同的对象或主题时，如假神或死罪，词汇变化或动词的灵活使用会进一步变得明显。本研究的目的是举例说明在古英语和早期中世纪英语文本中，特别是在编年史和布道中发现的各种各样的召唤表达，这些表达显示出句法和风格的连续性，但有一些形态和词汇的变化。表格显示了每个文本中使用的每个动词形式的选择。
