Studies in Tocharian Adjective FormationFellner, Hannes Alexander January 2013 (has links)
This thesis is devoted to the investigation of two morphological classes in Tocharian and their Indo-European prehistory and affiliation: 1) the continuants of Proto-Indo-European (PIE) thematic ("class I") adjectives, and 2) a class of agent formations related to them. / Linguistics

Tocharské výpůjčky v čínštině / Tocharian loanwords in ChineseŽidek, Jan January 2017 (has links)
This work was created to review the evidence for lexical borrowing from the Tocharian languages to the Chinese languages. The used methodology relies on lexical lists, previous etymological findings, linguistic typology and anthropological input. For preparatory data manipulation, a set of semi- automatic scripts has been created. Presented is a qualitative research based on previous findings assisted by raw data. The outcome of this work should be testable findings which could be extracted to a computer processable form.

Recherches sur le génitif en tokharien / Researches on the Tocharian genitiveMeunier, Fanny 22 May 2015 (has links)
Ce travail a pour objectif de décrire et de classer les emplois du génitif à partir des textes publiés en tokharien A et en tokharien B. La description synchronique des emplois du génitif, qui constitue en quelque sorte une syntaxe normative de ce cas, conduit à des comparaisons avec des faits syntaxiques connus à partir d'autres langues indo-européennes (en particulier les langues dites « classiques », sanskrit, latin et grec), et place également cette étude dans une perspective comparatiste, et typologique. Le génitif tokharien est étudié dans ses trois emplois : adnominal, adverbal et régi par une adposition (pré- ou postposition). Le génitif adnominal présente les mêmes valeurs que le génitif reconstruit classiquement pour l'indo-européen ; on met cependant en lumière sa particularité à ne transposer qu'un élément sujet lorsqu'il est génitif de procès, et ses critères de commutation ou de distribution complémentaire avec l'adjectif dérivé. Le génitif adverbal présente des emplois qui sont exprimés dans d’autres langues indo-européennes par le datif, alors que l’inventaire des cas tokhariens ne comporte pas de datif. On envisage donc l’hypothèse d’un syncrétisme entre génitif et datif. L'étude du génitif régi par une adposition met en lumière le fait que, malgré la refonte du système casuel en tokharien, certaines formes adverbiales ou schémas de formation sont hérités. Dans l'ensemble de cette étude, on tient compte des paramètres qui sont propres au tokharien telle l'influence de la syntaxe sanskrite sur celle du tokharien (la plupart des textes bouddhiques étant traduits ou adaptés d’originaux sanskrits). / The purpose of this study is the description and classification of the uses of the genitives attested in the Tocharian A and B published texts. A second purpose is comparison : the synchronic description of the genitive (a normative syntax of this case) is compared to the syntax of other Indo-European languages (so-called “classical languages”, such a Sanskrit, Latin and Greek). Three uses of the Tocharian genitive are investigated: the adnominal genitive, the adverbal genitive and the genitive after and adposition (pre- or postposition). The adnominal genitive behaves the same as the (traditionally reconstructed) Indo-European génitive. Nonetheless we emphasize two things : firstly, the Tocharian genitive cannot transpose a verbal phrase [vb + direct object] into a noun phrase. Secondly, very precise criteria rule the competency between genitive and derived adjectives. The uses of the Tocharian adverbal genitive are assumed by the dative in other Indo-European languages. The hypothesis of a syncretism is thus proposed. The study of the genitive after and adposition shows that some adverbial terms or some methods of forming are inherited. In the whole study, one always considers specific parameters of the Tocharian languages, which syntax is widely influenced by Sanskrit, as most part of the Tocharian material is translated from Sanskrit.

Representations of the Parinirvāṇa Story Cycle in KuchaZin, Monika 14 February 2024 (has links)
The book a comprehensive study concerning the narrative paintings in Kucha on the Northern Silk Road (today’s Province Xinjiang, an autonomous region of the Peoples Republic of China) featuring episodes surrounding the Buddha’s death. The murals, dating from approximately the 5th to the 10th century, represent entire cycles of pictures which illustrate the events starting three months before the parinirvāṇa and ending with the first council. All together, 39 “occurrences” from the parinirvāṇa cycles have been represented in Kucha. Most of these were depicted repeatedly; only a few of them, however, were shown in separate scenes, while others were shown “within” bigger pictorial units. Relying on literary sources and comparative pictorial material, the book provides descriptions and analysis of the paintings, including both those in situ in the caves and the paintings which were removed from the walls and are presently located in the Museum für Indische Kunst in Berlin and in other collections around the world. The book is illustrated with 87 figures and 81 line drawings (mostly by the author) which make the often poorly-preserved murals comprehensible.:Acknowledgements

Essays and Studies in the Art of KuchaKonczak-Nagel, Ines, Zin, Monika 16 March 2023 (has links)
The first volume of the Academy project 'Buddhist Murals of Kucha on the Northern Silk Road' contains three studies that show what information can be gained from the paintings.
The first study by Ines Konczak-Nagel, “Painted Buddhist Cosmology: The Pictorial Programme of Central Pillar Caves in Kizil”, demonstrates how Buddhist cosmology, always seen in connection with the Buddhist path of salvation, is represented in the selection of topics and the arrangement of paintings on the cave walls.
The second study by the same author, “Representations of Architecture and Architectural Elements on the Wall Paintings of Kucha”, is part of an ongoing extensive analysis of the material culture depicted in the paintings. The architecture represented provides insights into the local Tocharian architecture of Kucha, which has since disappeared.
The study of Monika Zin “The Monk Kāśyapa in Kucha, the First Council, and the Furtherance of Buddhist Teaching” examines interesting extensions within the paintings illustrating the events connected with Buddha’s death, the many-scenic representations of the first council in Rājagṛha. There are good reason to believe that the monk Mahākāśyapa who was supposed to convoke the summit was worshiped in Kucha as a saint and guarantor of the preservation of Buddhist teachings.:Foreword by the Series Editors (Eli Franco and Monika Zin)
