“…Aspect or Aktionsart was apparently marked somewhat independently from Greek, based more on the exigencies of the context than on the Greek model. For example, in the following passage, Greek uses ἀκούσῃ, an aorist active subjunctive 3sg, but Gothic does not follow suit with a perfective ga-form or a compound: [20] See Scherer 1954, Krause 1968, 213-15, Lloyd 1979, Lehmann 1986, 133 for a discussion of various views on the aspectual value of the Gothic prefix ga-.…”

Among the sociolinguistc forces at work in the languages of the world, religious affiliation and the accompanying reverence for the symbols of that affiliation must rank among the most powerful. Religious texts serve as repositories of cultural tradition and become, for their followers, reliquaries of the very word of God. Besides the conservatizing, archaizing pressures which often grow up within a religious tradition, these texts also act as conduits for cultural and linguistic innovation as they spread, through transmission and translation, to surrounding populations. The New Testament (NT) represents just such a cultural conduit, providing not only a blueprint for Christian social behavior but also a pattern for Christian linguistic expression, providing a new lexicon, a special syntax, a style of its own, simple and spare. It was this style, these lexical and syntactic patterns, which came to be imbued with social value to connote membership in the Christian community, and which came to be imitated, sometimes subtly, sometimes blatantly, by translators of the New Testament.

“Parenthesis” and the Unreliable Author in Julian Barnes's A History of the World in 10½ Chapters

This paper focuses on the ambiguous status of the half-chapter in Julian Barnes's novel A History of the World in 10'½ Chapters (1989). "Parenthesis" stands in contradistinction to the other ten chapters in that it offers a concerted riposte to the provisionality of postmodern history by installing love as a structuring logic by which the terrifying randomness of the past can be negotiated. Much of the distinctiveness of "Parenthesis" derives from the intrusion of an authorial-narratorial figuration of Julian Barnes which, it is argued, lends the half-chapter a degree of authorial privilege and narrative stability that is not evident elsewhere. By reading the 'honesty' of Barnes's discourse on love as a postmodern strategy of seduction, it is claimed that the redemptive potential of love as a way of making meaning from chaos is compromised. To recognise this is to face the prospect that Barnes lulls his readers into believing that "Parenthesis" offers an escape from the scepticism of postmodernism only to confront them with their own naive desire for order in narrative as in history.
