Opis:
The current paper aims to compare the complexity of texts translated into English-based creole languages and English. The main motivation for the choice of topic was the growing body of evidence that languages and language phenomena, such as texts, may be regarded as complex adaptable systems of signs. These systems may display some fractal properties, such as self-similarity at different scales. In consequence, texts may be analysed in the same manner as other fractal objects. It is possible, for instance, to estimate their fractal dimensions which, to some extent, reflect the degree of their structural complexity. Such an assumption enables one to calculate and compare fractal dimensions of parallel translations of texts to various languages in order to compare their complexity levels. Methods which enable comparisons of complexity of texts in different languages are particularly important with regard to creole languages, since the complexity of contact languages is still the subject of debate. In the following study, ten parallel translations of passages from the New Testament were mapped onto time series plots based on the length and the frequency rank of words. The values of Hurst exponent as well as fractal dimension were estimated and it was found that the studied time series did not differ significantly between English and English-based creoles with respect to their fractal dimensions. The results lend support to the idea that creole languages are simply new languages which are merely different from their superstrate language rather than being less complex, at least with regard to their lexical patterns.

Opis:
In 1974, the Honolulu-based director James Grant Benton wrote and staged Twelf Nite O Wateva!, a Hawaiian pidgin translation of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night. In Benton’s translation, Malolio (Malvolio) strives to overcome his reliance on pidgin English in his efforts to ascend the Islands’ class hierarchy. In doing so, Malolio alters his native pidgin in order to sound more haole (white). Using historical models of Protestant identity and Shakespeare’s original text, Benton explores the relationship between pidgin language and social privilege in contemporary Hawai‘i. In the first part of this essay, I argue that Benton characterizes Malolio’s social aspirations against two historical moments of religious conflict and struggle: post-Reformation England and post-contact Hawai‘i. In particular, I show that Benton aligns historical caricatures of early modern puritans with cultural views of Protestant missionaries from New England who arrived in Hawai‘i beginning in the 1820s. In the essay’s second part, I demonstrate that Benton crafts Malolio’s pretentious pidgin by modeling it on Shakespeare’s own language. During his most ostentatious outbursts, Malolio’s lines consist of phrases extracted nearly verbatim from Shakespeare’s original play. In Twelf Nite, Shakespeare’s language becomes a model for speech that is inauthentic, affected, and above all, haole.

Opis:
Der Rezensionsbeitrag bespricht das Buch von Aleksandra R. Knapik und Piotr P. Chruszczewski „Kreolingwistyka w zarysie. Językowo-kulturowe mechanizmy przetrwania, rozwoju i dezintegracji“, das die erste polnischsprachige Einführung in die Kreolistik ist. Es ist allerdings zu betonen, dass diese Monografie auch einen wertvollen Überblick über Kontaktlinguistik und anthropologische Linguistik bietet. In der Einleitung des vorliegenden Beitrags wird darauf aufmerksam gemacht, wie wichtig die Untersuchung von gefährdeten Sprachen ist. Dasselbe gilt jedoch auch für die Untersuchung der Entstehung und Entwicklung von neuen Sprachen, die in Folge vom Kontakt zwischen zwei oder mehr Sprachgemeinschaften entstehen. Im weiteren Teil des Beitrags werden die einzelnen Kapitel der Monografie besprochen. Im ersten Kapitel geben die Autoren einen breiteren Kontext der Kreolistik, indem sie ihre Position im Rahmen der Kontaktlinguistik bestimmen, die wiederum als eine Teildisziplin der anthropologischen Sprachwissenschaft angesehen wird. Die Taxonomie der Sprachanthropologie sowie die Hauptkonzepte der anthropologischen Linguistik werden in der besprochenen Monografie klar dargestellt. Ihre nächsten Kapitel konzentrieren sich auf Pidginsprachen (Kapitel 2) und auf Kreolsprachen (Kapitel 3). Beide Typen der Kontaktsprachen werden detailliert beschrieben, wenn es um ihre Definitionen, charakteristische Merkmale und mögliche Klassifikationen geht. Im letzten Kapitel ihres Buches gehen die Autoren auf die gefährdeten Sprachen ein. Sie besprechen Ursachen und Mechanismen von Sprach- und Kulturveränderungen, die zu dem Verschwinden von Sprachen führen können und analysieren die Faktoren, die von Vitalität einer Sprache zeugen. Im abschließenden Teil des vorliegenden Beitrags werden einige allgemeine Bemerkungen über die besprochene Monografie präsentiert.
The review article discusses the book of Aleksandra R. Knapik and Piotr P. Chruszczewski “Kreolingwistyka w zarysie. Językowo-kulturowe mechanizmy przetrwania, rozwoju i dezintegracji”, which is the first introduction to Creolingistics written in Polish. It should be however emphasized, that the book under review is also a valuable overview of contact linguistics and anthropological linguistics. The paper begins by drawing attention to the importance of research on endangered languages as well as on the formation and development of new languages, which come into existence, when two or more language communities meet. In the next part of this paper individual chapters of the book are discussed. In the first chapter, the authors outline the broader background of the research, defining the place of creolinguistics within contact linguistics, which in turn belongs to the field of anthropological linguistics. The taxonomy of language anthropology is very clearly explained, and the main concepts of anthropological linguistics are presented. Next chapters of the book under review focus on pidgins (chapter 2) and creoles (chapter 3). Both types of contact languages are described in detail in terms of their definition(s), characteristics, and possible classifications. In the last chapter of their book the authors deal with endangered languages. They discuss causes and mechanisms of linguistic and cultural changes, that lead to their disappearance and analyse the factors of language vitality. In the concluding part of the review article some general remarks on the book under review are presented.
