On The Assignment Of Gender To Chicano Anglicisms: Processes And Results, Robert N. Smead
On The Assignment Of Gender To Chicano Anglicisms: Processes And Results, Robert N. Smead
Faculty Publications
The creation of neologisms through linguistic borrowing is a complex process. For donor language models to be transformed into host language replicas, phonological and morphological adaptation must take place. Part and parcel of that adaptation is the assignment of gender to loanwords in a host language like Spanish. The present article examines gender assignment in two corpora of loanwords (New Mexican and Southern Colorado Spanish: N=212 and General Chicano Spanish: N=595). Through the application of variable rule methodology (GoldVarb 2), five factors are posited as significant. Two of these categorically determine gender assignment when present: (1) the biological sex of …
The Monument To Brigham Young And The Pioneers : One Hundred Years Of Controversy, J. Michael Hunter
The Monument To Brigham Young And The Pioneers : One Hundred Years Of Controversy, J. Michael Hunter
Faculty Publications
For more than a century, the Brigham Young Monument in Salt Lake City has been the center of sometimes acrimonious controversy. The idea and organization to create a monument were begun in 1891. The statue of Brigham Young was completed by Cyrus Dallin in 1893. Many delays in raising funds caused the monument not to be finished until 1900. Thereafter it often became the target of those trying to improve traffic conditions in the downtown area. In 1993, the monument was moved just north of the intersection to improve the flow of traffic. On the monuments one hundredth anniversary, "The …

This photo essay provides an overview of the history of the Angel Moroni statues, beginning with the angel atop the Nauvoo Temple and continuing through to designs used on the Salt Lake Temple, the Washington D.C. Chapel, the Los Angeles California Temple, the Washington D.C. Temple, and other temples built through 2000. Angel Moroni statues have come to symbolize for Latter-day Saints the restoration of the gospel in the latter days. For Mormons, the Moroni statues herald the gospel being preached “to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people” (Rev. 14:6). “I Saw Another Angel Fly” discusses …

Storytellers: Scandinavian's Art Told Of Restoration, J. Michael Hunter
Faculty Publications
Missionary work in Scandinavia began 150 years ago with the arrival of the first LDS missionaries in Denmark on June 14, 1850. In keeping with the observance of the sesquicentennial of the Scandinavian Mission, the Church News presents this article by J. Michael Hunter about two prominent Latter-day Saint artists from earlier days in that part of the world. The art and work of Carl Christian Anton Christensen (1831-1921) from Denmark and Danquart Anton Weggeland (1827-1918) from Norway are discussed, focusing on their use of art to tell stories. Images of their art accompany the article.

One purpose of our paper is to present a final pre-publication report on our efforts to publish the approximately 2900 fragments from Qumran Cave 4 that comprise our allotment, designated "4QMiscellaneous and Unidentified." These fragments are found on 40 PAM plates, 43.660-43.686, and 43.688-43.701. We have examined all of the plates in the Rockefeller Museum that contain our fragments, have compared them with the PAM photographic plates received from the Israel Antiquities Authority, and are now working to finish preparing our transcriptions of and notes on these fragments. We will submit our work for publication in DJD XXXIII in 1999.

Variable Léxica Y Comparación Dialectal, Orlando Alba
Variable Léxica Y Comparación Dialectal, Orlando Alba
Faculty Publications
El desarrollo de nuevos enfoques metodológicos, como los de la sociolingüística, la etnografía de la comunicación, o la pragmática, parecería haber dejado rezagada a la dialectología dentro del amplio conjunto de disciplinas que estudian los fenómenos lingüísticos. Pero esa impresión solo sería válida desde la perspectiva que encierra a la dialectología en el marco de unos planteamientos tradicionales que la estancan y que suponen que debe mantenerse siempre apegada a los mismos métodos y las mismas herramientas. Como ha señalado Alvar con mucho acierto, la circunstancia de que la dialectología haya dejado de ser "la disciplina directriz de los estudios …

Elisión De La /D/ Intervocálica Postónica, Orlando Alba
Faculty Publications
Los testimonios que confinnan el desarrollo del proceso de debilitamiento y la subsecuente desaparición de la consonante /d/ intervocálica en español, se remontan a fechas muy antiguas. En la actualidad, frente a palabras que han conservado la /d/, como crudo (de crudu), nido (de nidu), hay otras donde se ha perdido, como oir (de audire), creer (de credere), pie (de pede(m)). Sin embargo, las demás sonoras, /b, g/, se han conservado con mayor regularidad. Se trata de un fenómeno revelador de que posiblemente las dentales se caractericen por un grado menor de fuerza consonántica que las labiales o las velares.

Norfolk And The Mormon Folk: Latter-Day Saint Immigration Through Old Dominion (1887-90), Fred E. Woods

On 11 September 1887, the front page of the Norfolk Virginian had a bold headline, "Four Hundred Mormons," along with the following information: "The Old Dominion steamer Richmond, which arrived from New York yesterday, had on board four-hundred and twenty Mormon immigrants from the British Isles who had arrived in New York on Thursday on the steamship Wisconsin. The immigrants are all new converts to the Mormon religion and will swell the number of adherents to the Brigham Young faith in the territory considerably. The party is composed of men, women and children, and when the special train with nine …
