Antroponimia a dialektologia - zależności metodyczne

Abstract

The presented line of anthroponymic research which gives priority to the substance of proper personal names, their place in the language and their social functions meets the requirements set up for linguistics. The new interest in proper names as a category of linguistic signs has resulted in a departure from the earlier research methods used by historians and ethnographers and deriving free the priority of the designated object over the name itself. The development of particular lines of linguistics has had a considerable influence on the onomastic research. Of special importance is the influence of dialectography and dialectology. The interest in territorial differentiation of the Polish language has made the students investigate locality and personal proper names functioning it* a given dialect and carrying its feature в. As a result of this. coincidence and the fact of sharing of numerous features by common and proper names anthroponymy remains largely dependent on dialectology and dialectological methods both at the stage of data collection and scientific description and conclusions. The use of linguistic methods characteristic of other lines of linguistics like lexicography, lexicology and word-formation analysis qualify anthroponymy as another linguistic discipline rather than a separate line of science or an auxiliary of linguistics.
