New Peace IV funded book captures ‘Placenames and Fieldnames of Culfeightrin’

source

The community-led project was supported by Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council’s Museum Services. The initiative was funded by the European Union’s PEACE IV Programme, which is managed by the Special EU Programmes Body, under the theme ‘Understanding Our Area – People and Places’ which forms part of the Council’s £3.8m Local Authority Action Plan.

The book will help to preserve many of the unique names which exist in the area and will serve as an important record for generations to come. The launch was attended by members of the local community, including those who made valuable contributions to the project by sharing their knowledge and historical information.

After two years of hard work, a range of cross community projects like this new book are nearing completion in many areas of the Borough. The PEACE IV Funding has encouraged increased expression and understanding of our people and places, through museum collections, historic sites and cultural heritage using interpretation, arts and multimedia to create a peace building legacy.

You can read ‘Placenames and Fieldnames of Culfeightrin’ online now by going to www.niarchive.org and a reference copy available is available in Causeway Museum Services Resource Area in Ballymoney Town Hall.

Le toponyme et ses implications sociales et géopolitiques - analyse synchronique-contrastive d'exemples d'exonymisation

SFO

La prochaine séance de la SFO se déroulera le lundi 20 janvier 2020 à 15 et se tiendra dans la salle d’Albâtre du CARAN (Centre d’accueil et de recherche des Archives nationales), 11 rue des Quatre-Fils, Paris 3e (Métro Rambuteau)

Conférence de Mme Malgorzata Mandola (Université de Rennes-2 / LIDILE EA 3874)

 Le toponyme et ses implications sociales et géopolitiques - analyse synchronique-contrastive d'exemples d'exonymisation

 La conférence aura pour sujet l'observation des structures et des modes d'intégration des toponymes dans une langue étrangère, dite exonymisation, ainsi que leur usage populaire dans les publications courantes (sur Internet, dans les brochures touristiques, dans les applications et réseaux sociaux, etc.), qui diffère de l'usage officiel, censé être politiquement correct (ex. Wrocław / Breslau).

 Le concept de toponymie synchronique-contrastive et les méthodes d'analyse fonctionnelle y seront introduits. Quelques théories concernant les noms propres seront également présentées, mais elles seront adaptées aux toponymes, à leurs fonctions, ainsi qu'à leur statut linguistique dans le contexte de la normalisation internationale des noms géographiques.

 Par ailleurs, à l’issue de cette conférence le prix Albert Dauzat sera remis à M. Stéphane Gendron.

 Toutefois, en fonction de l'évolution de la situation dans les transports, nous pourrions être amenés à déplacer cette séance à une date ultérieure.

The future of the Nordic socio-onomastic network

link

by Terhi Ainiala, Emilia Aldrin & Birgit Eggert

The NOS-HS workshop-project New Trends in Nordic Socio-onomastics has been completed with really good results, and is now continuing as a network for Nordic scientists working with socio-onomastics.

One of the project results is this website, that will be the center of the network from now on. The network members will regularly publish blog posts with news about research, events and publications with socio-onomastic content. The entries will be written in the Nordic languages ​​or English. The web-blog will be the most dynamic feature on the site, but new information about research ideas and network participants will be added when relevant.

The research project ideas identified through the workshop-project live on in smaller sub-networks. Each of these sub-networks will explore the best ways to bring each idea in to life as concrete research projects, and – possibly – also work with a variation of smaller outcome with different angles on the subjects. The project ideas will be developed over time depending on the concrete resources available.

At the same time, we will try to apply for funding for another NOS-HS workshop series to be able to concretize and sharpen those of the project topics that are best suited for large projects with collaboration between several researchers from different countries. The aim of this will be a concentrated preparation of specific research applications that are strong enough for international competition.

The upcoming Nordic Journal of Socio-Onomastics / Nordisk Tidskrift för socio-onomastik will soon be presented in more detail here on the blog. It will be a significant publishing channel for future socio-onomastic research both in the Nordic region and in a wider international context.

Our network will present its results and future ideas at the next international onomastic congress in Krákow in August 2020 (ICOS 2020). We encourage all interested in socio-onomastics to contact us there.

We look forward to be acquainted with the many new socio-onomastic initiatives that we hope and expect the future will bring.

100 000s of People from 112 Countries Select Names for Exoplanet Systems

link

On 17 December 2019 the names of 112 sets of exoplanets and host stars named in the IAU100 NameExoWorlds campaigns were announced at a press conference in Paris (France). Within the framework of the International Astronomical Union’s 100th anniversary commemorations (IAU100) in 2019, 112 countries organised national campaigns that stimulated the direct participation of over 780 000 people worldwide, who proposed and selected names for each exoplanet and its host star.

The IAU100 NameExoWorlds project saw massive and widespread participation around the world, as the public eagerly engaged in this exciting opportunity to suggest meaningful, creative and unique names for exoplanet systems for their respective countries. This is only the second time in history that a campaign has led to the naming of stars and exoplanets. Overall, 360 000 proposals for names were received from 112 countries. The National Committee in each country reduced their proposals to a shortlist of national candidates, which were presented to the public for their votes. A total of 420 000 people voted for their preferred candidates. The complete list of names approved by the IAU100 NameExoWorlds Steering Committee can be explored here. This project will have a lasting impact, as the winning names will be used in parallel with the existing scientific nomenclature, credited to the person, group or institution that suggested them.

"Astronomical observations over the past generation have now discovered over 4000 planets orbiting other stars — called exoplanets. The number of discoveries continues to double about every 2½ years, revealing remarkable new planet populations and putting our own Earth and Solar System in perspective. Statistically, most of the stars in the sky are likely to be orbited by their own planets — they are everywhere,” said Eric Mamajek, co-chair of the NameExoWorlds Steering Committee. “While astronomers catalogue their new discoveries using telephone-number-like designations, there has been growing interest amongst astronomers and the public alike in also assigning proper names, as is done for Solar System bodies,” Mamajek continued. 

The IAU100 NameExoWorlds global project was conceived to create awareness of our place in the Universe and to reflect on how the Earth would potentially be perceived by a civilisation on another planet. As the IAU is the authority responsible for assigning official designations and names to celestial bodies, the IAU100 celebrations in 2019 were used as a special occasion to offer every country the chance to name one planetary system, comprising an exoplanet and its host star. IAU100 NameExoWorlds Project Manager, Eduardo Monfardini Penteado said “The IAU100 NameExoWorlds campaign provided the public with the exciting opportunity to help with the naming of over 100 new worlds and their stars, and to help the IAU establish a thoughtful naming theme for naming future discoveries in those systems.” 

Each nation's designated star for naming is visible from that country, and is sufficiently bright to be observed through small telescopes. The respective National Committees, following the methodology and guidelines set up by the IAU100 NameExoWorlds Steering Committee, were the bodies responsible for establishing the conditions for public participation, disseminating the project in the country and developing a voting system. 

The newly named exoplanets are likely to be large gas giants, and all were discovered via one of two discovery methods: the transit method — where planets are observed to pass in front of their star and block a portion of the star’s light; and the radial velocity method — where careful measurement of a star’s spectrum reveals it to be wobbling back and forth under the influence of the gravity of its planets [1]. 

Some examples of the new IAU names for exoplanets and their stars include: 

• Ireland: The names of mythological dogs (Bran, Tuiren) from the Irish legend The Birth of Bran, for the planet HAT-P-36b (Bran) orbiting the star HAT-P-36 (Tuiren) in the constellation of Canes Venatici (the Hunting Dogs),
• Jordan: The names of ancient cities and protected areas in southern Jordan, for the exoplanet WASP-80b (Wadirum) orbiting the star WASP-80 (Petra) in the constellation of Aquila (the Eagle),
• Malaysia: The names of gemstones in Malay language, for the exoplanet HD 20868 b (Baiduri) orbiting the star HD 20868 (Intan) in the constellation of Fornax (the Furnace),
• Burkina Faso: The new names for the planet HD 30856 b (Nakambé) and its star HD 30856 (Mouhoun) refer to the local names for prominent rivers in Burkina Faso. Fittingly, the system lies in the river constellation of Eridanus (the River). 

In recognition of the UN 2019 International Year of Indigenous Languages, speakers of indigenous languages were encouraged to propose names from those languages, and a few dozen of the selected names are of indigenous etymology. In Argentina, the winning proposal was submitted by a teacher and community leader in the indigenous Moqoit community. The new names for the planet HD 48265 b (Naqaya) and star HD 48265 (Nosaxa) mean brother-family-relative (referring to all human beings as brothers) and spring (literally, new year), respectively, in Moqoit language. 

“The IAU is delighted to see the broad international interest that this NameExoWorlds campaign has generated,” noted IAU President-elect Debra Elmegreen. “It is gratifying that so many people across the globe have helped create a name for a planetary system that is meaningful to their culture and heritage. This effort helps unite us all in our exploration of the Universe.” 

The NameExoWorlds project was organised within the framework of the IAU’s 100th anniversary in 2019. With over 5000 activities in 140 countries, millions of people around the world are celebrating the astronomical breakthroughs that have shaped science, technology and culture throughout the last century, as well as highlighting the importance of astronomy as a tool for education, development and diplomacy. Find more information on the IAU100 website.

“Throughout the year we have engaged with the public through various astronomy activities for the IAU’s 100th anniversary. The NameExoWorlds Global Project has been the perfect initiative to close a year full of projects engaging with society. It will surely have a lasting impact for years to come,” concludes IAU President Ewine van Dishoeck.
