Prof. Edgar Hoffmann passed away unexpectedly at the age of only 64 on October 30, 2021.
His academic teacher was the internationally renowned Slavist and co-founder of the Leipzig Onomastic School Ernst Eichler. After his studies in Leipzig in 1984, he defended his PhD on the history of Slavic onomastics in Germany.
He has been working at the Institute for Slavic Languages at the Vienna University of Economics and Business since 1991. There, he obtained his habilitation in September 2015. His research activities in Vienna have focused on Slavic business languages, but also on the history of Slavic onomastics and the role of names in business communication.
The publications in the famous international series such as "Onomastica Slavogermanica" edited alternately in Berlin and Wrocław and the Leipzig journal "Namenkundliche Informationen/Journal of Onomastics" justify the quality of Edgar Hoffmann's research.
Since 1993, he has been focusing on the name formation and name usage in Russian business advertising. In 1999, his research about the Russian Names has been collected and published under the title „Neue onymische Räume in Russland“ (New Onymic Spaces in Russia). His last work about Personal Names as Components of Names in the Russian Economy is going to be published in the 14th volume of "Onomastica Lipsiensia".
Datum: 3:e mars 2022 Plats: Institutet för språk och folkminnen, Uppsala
Workshopen ska behandla hur språkkontakt kan komma till uttryck i historiska personnamn från olika historiska språkstadier och i olika källtextsorter. Målet med workshopen är för det första att sammanställa de teoretiska ansatser som finns på området och att diskutera dessa med utgångspunkt i deltagarnas aktuella forskning. För det andra kommer olika ingångar till metodologiska spörsmål att diskuteras. Dessa kommer att behandlas utifrån källtextsorternas olika filologiska och kontextuella premisser. Dessutom kommer möjligheten att finnas att presentera pågående, planerade eller tänkta projekt inom området.

Themes detailed in the conference description include Jewish languages and cultures in North Africa, and the history of Jews in Morocco.
Rabat - Agadir-based international university Universiapolis is hosting a conference from November 23-25 on the political and social significance of Morocco’s Jewish heritage.
The conference, titled “Jewish Onomastics in Morocco: Political, Economic, and Territorial Implications,” will be organized by the doctoral department of the Agadir’s Universiapolis.
The conference aims to tackle the intricate relationship between Onomastics, the origin of names, and political, economic, and territorial constraints. The main argument of the conference is that Jewish names in spelling and pronunciation are conditioned by economic, political, and territorial factors.
This year, 2021, the researcher Anatol Eremia turns 90 years old. He is the personality who remained faithful during his entire scientific career to the Institute of Romanian Philology “Bogdan Petriceicu-Hasdeu“, in its various forms of existence so far. He dedicated his life to onomastics research, demonstrating a special predilection for the phenomena of toponymy.
Evolving in his career at all levels of the academic hierarchy, from laboratory in the field of Onomastics to scientific coordinator and scientific consultant, he managed to gather scientific information and make relevant analyzes by publishing 25 monographs, dictionaries, guides and 465 scientific articles and popularization of science.
Among the most famous works signed by Anatol Eremia are: Names of localities. Toponymy study, 1970; The secrets of geographical names, 1986; The unity of the Romanian onomastic patrimony, 2001; Cahul in time and space, 2007; Chisinau. History and current affairs, 2012; The Romanian toponymic treasure. Republic of Moldova. Cantemir area, 2016; Leova. Localities, people, traditions, 2018 etc.
He has had and continues to work in several commissions, councils, editorial boards dealing with issues of onomastics (toponymy, anthroponymy): UN Expert Group for Standardization of Geographical Names of International Circulation, Scientific Council of the Institute of Romanian Philology, Interdepartmental Commission for Study the state and development of the Romanian language, the Republican Commission for the regulation and protection of national onomastics, the Commission for the regulation of urbanism of Chisinau, the Editorial Board of the dedicated journal.
Anatol Eremia is a patrimonial personality for onomastic and toponymic research, who became, in time, a “guardian” of toponymy, as he had once been a “guardian” in the Romanian school of Cahul.
