The vision of Mongolian countryside on examples of the culturally specific expressions in the novel of C'. Lodojdamba, Tungalag Tamir
Makúch, Branislav ; Kapišovská, Veronika (advisor) ; Oberfalzerová, Alena (referee)
Tato práce se zabývá užitím tzv. "kulturně specifick-ých výrazů" v románě Tungalag Tamír (Průzračný Tamír) spisovatele C'adraabalyna Lodoidamby. "Kulturně specifické výrazy" jsou takové části řeči, které jsou srozumitelné výlučně pro danou kulturu. Těsně souvisejí s životem a myšlením příslušníků oné kultury a vycházejí z jejích charakteristik. Tyto výrazy vlastně označují jisté pojmy, jisté myšlenkové obrazy, které - pokud jsou správně dešifrovány - mohou nám pomoci proniknout hlouběji do dané kultury a lépe ji pochopit. V této práci se budu především zamýšlet nad mírou přeložitelnosti těchto výrazů skrze interpretaci každého daného výrazu. Vývody, které z takového zkoumání povedou, by měly být v budoucnu dobře využitelné k překladové praxi, a tím by měly pomoci ke správnějšímu zprostředkování mongolské kultury českým čtenářům. Při své metodologii jsem se nechal inspirovat knihou PhDr. Aleny Oberfalzerové: Metaphors and Nomads. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Ambiguity and Abstraction in Mongolian Riddles: An Ethnolinguistic Analysis
Mikos, Rachel ; Kapišovská, Veronika (advisor) ; Birtalan, Ágnes (referee) ; Even, Marie-Dominique (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to create an ethnolinguistic analysis of two corpuses of Mongolian riddles (Lovor and Ölziikhutag 1990 and Ölziikhutag 2013). The work contains over one hundred riddles appended with translations and morpheme-to-morpheme glosses. The riddles are further analyzed on a phonetic level, including descriptions of specific sound patterns and alliterations, as well as their lexical and semantic properties. This complex analysis, in conjunction with findings gained in field research, renders possible the description of a specific language of Mongolian riddles, characterized by the frequent occurrence of borrowings, the presence of semantically and phonetically 'damaged' words, ideophones, metaphors and many specific cultural expressions. The language of Mongolian riddles also often skilfully exploits overt abstractions, allusions, and lexical and morphological ambiguities, in addition to other techniques which facilitate conceptual mapping and cognitive blending. This linguistic analysis makes possible a description of the various aspects of the worldview of Mongolian nomads concealed in these riddles, including the characteristic linking of the 'sacred and profane,' as well as the relationship of these riddles to mythology and religious ideas.
