Las paremias: naturaleza, función y relevancia cultural
type: item
description: This appendix analyzes the multidimensional nature of paremias as capsules of collective wisdom and fundamental tools of communicative competence. Moving from their etymological and structural definitions to their evolution in 172 Phrasis Dicembre 2025 the contemporary digital environment through neo-paremias, the study focuses specifically on the 15th-century Seniloquium. It is concluded that this repertoire, attributed to Diego García de Castro, serves as a philological and sociocultural milestone where peasant oral tradition and academic legitimacy converge. The analysis demonstrates that the manuscript not only documents a critical stage in the transition of pre-classical medieval Spanish but also establishes the “ground zero” of Spanish proverbial identity, maintaining an ethical and linguistic relevance that endures after five centuries of transmission.

Fundamentos téoricos y metodológicos para el análisis extrínseco de las paremias en texto literario
type: item
description: In this paper, we aim to offer guidelines for approaching the study of paremias in literary texts with scientific rigor. After presenting the theoretical framework and the working methodology employed by the members of the UCM Research Group 930235 Phraseology and Paremiology, we introduce a model of extrinsic analysis based on a corpus of paremias extracted from the works of authors within the contemporary Spanish literary landscape. The objective of this study is to present a growing line of research along with a methodological approach for the production of scholarly articles in this area of linguistics.

Bestiaires phraséologiques: une analyse contrastive en français et en russe
type: item
description: In this study, based on a phraseological corpus extracted from lexicographic sources, we conduct a contrastive analysis of the shared and divergent cognitive and cultural features in French and Russian phraseological units related to animals. The primary objective is to create a comparative phraseological bestiary in French and Russian, enabling us to evaluate the degree of formal and semantic equivalence. This analysis aims to provide semantic, cultural, and methodological insights that are valuable for both understanding and learning these expressions.

Tant qu’il y a de la phraséologie, il y a de l’espoir : mots vieillis et expressions figées
type: item
description: This study examines the role of phraseology in the preservation of old and archaic words. The analysis focuses on 129 lexical units – old, archaic words, words that have been subjected to a shift in meaning – extracted manually from Le Robert, Dictionnaire des expressions et locutions (2003). The objective is to demonstrate that, in most cases, these lexical units constitute fixed expressions that are still used regularly; this contributes to the preservation of a rich lexical and cultural heritage. For the analysis a corpus of contemporary French, FrTenTen23, is exploited.

La resa della dialettalità delle lessicalizzazioni complesse del Sorriso dell’ignoto marinaio di Vincenzo Consolo nelle traduzioni francese, tedesca e inglese
type: item
description: The following contribution focuses on the translation rendering of some regional idioms or compounds in the novel Il sorriso dell’ignoto marinaio by Vincenzo Consolo (1933-2012) in the French version by Fusco and Sager (1980), the German version by Gianchi (1984) and the English version by Farrell (1994). On the basis of the translation strategies identified by Baker (1992) for the above word level equivalence and taken up by Obstová (2022) – using an idiom of similar meaning and form, similar meaning but dissimilar form, translation by paraphrase, literal translation/calque and omission – we will focus on those cases in which translators have recognized the necessity to opt for cultural homologation and we will provide an example of omission with compensation for the loss of information.

Considerazioni sulla glossa etrusca Arse uerse e sulla radice etrusca AR-
type: item
description: The essay analyzes the Etruscan gloss arse verse, translated into Latin as averte ignem, interpreting it as an apotropaic magical formula against fire. The author confirms its genuine Etruscan origin, rejecting alternative hypotheses of Oscan or Latin derivation, and explores its linguistic structure, particularly the verbal root ar- (“to carry, to move”) and the morpheme -s- with a separative function. Comparisons with epigraphic texts, such as the Liber Linteus and the scroll of Laris Pulenas, support this interpretation. The expression, likely extracted from the Libri Etrusci, reflects a complex religious and linguistic conception. It is also suggested that the formula had a broader idiomatic use, possibly extending to protection against celestial fire, such as lightning.

Sobre el origen no evangélico de Noli me tangere
type: item
description: Noli me tangere is one of the best-known Latin locutions that is often associated with the scene of Mary Magdalene meeting the risen Jesus Christ (John 20: 17). It is a cultural europeanism that has developed several meanings (some of them technical). The present work focuses mainly on the search for the origin of the inscription “Noli me tangere, quia Caesaris sum”, related to the legend of Caesar’s stag, the reminiscences of which can be found, for example, in Petrarch’s sonnet 190 and in its English version by Thomas Wyatt. In philological studies there is a unanimous opinion that both texts refer to the words of Jesus Christ. On the basis of archaeological evidence, we demonstrate that the roots of the inscription in question actually lie in a very ancient formulaic scheme related to the so-called ‘speaking inscriptions’ of the pre-Christian times.

“Colpire” un trattato - “Tagliare” un patto. Da Foedus ferire a To strike a treaty
type: item
description: This paper examines the phraseology used to describe the conclusion of a pact in antiquity. An analysis of Latin literary corpora reveals a high frequency of verbs meaning “to strike/cut’’ in conjunction with foedus to indicate the conclusion of an agreement. A metonymic process is thus highlighted whereby a verb designating a part of the complex procedure of swearing oaths for pacts comes to indicate the conclusion of the treaty itself. The same process is also observed in the Greek, Anatolian, and Semitic worlds, suggesting a common underlying origin. A similar metonymic shift is observed in the English expressions “to strike a treaty”, “a deal”, and “a bargain”, attested at least since the 16th century. The expression “to strike hands”, used to mark the conclusion of an agreement, which recalls an ancient practice documented in both the Greek and Roman cultures, may have contributed to this particular use of “to strike”.

Assa voce, viva voce. Due modalità della voce nell’antichità
type: item
description: Assa voce and viva voce are two terms used in the Latin literary tradition to describe the central role of the voice in particular communicative acts. The former emphasizes the voice’s capacity to foreground specific content, while the latter presents it as a dynamic, flowing source of information in interpersonal exchanges, akin to a living spring.

Indagine sull’espressione latina Utres inflati
type: item
description: The aim of this article is to show how four Latin authors (Horace, Petronius, Apuleius and Arnobius) use the same proverbial expression (utres inflati) with different outcomes in compliance with their style, their purpose and their literary genres. In doing so, we will start from the Greek origin of the expression, and we will look at the various meanings in which the idiom is used. In addition, a special look will be taken at linguistic issues, as paremias find their natural place in the Umgangssprache. We hope that this kind of comparative analysis opens the way to a more deepened investigation on the use of proverbs and sayings within Latin novelistic and satirical context.

Frasemi, locuzioni, paremie: lezioni di lingua italiana in Inghilterra fra 1500 e 1700
type: item
description: The teaching tools for learning the Italian language used in England between 1500 and 1700 (lexicographic works and language manuals) were full of phraseological and paremiological units which, translated from Italian into English, contributed to conveying a use of the language in context. Simultaneously, they promoted oral production, guaranteed naturalness in communication and exposure to culture, and stimulated intercultural comparison. If John Florio was the most prominent figure in the panorama of Italian teaching thanks to his dictionary and his bilingual manuals, other language teachers, such as Benvenuto Italiano, Giovanni Torriano, and Pietro Paravicino, also created pedagogical works. However, after Florio’s example, phrases and paremias, while continuing to be included in didactic dialogues, decreased in number. They became less important, thus reflecting a progressive decline in the role of the Italian language and culture in English society. Only in the 1700 did Giuseppe Baretti manage to bring back the prestige of Italian thanks to his pedagogical production.

Introduzione
type: item
description: Le parole e le espressioni che si utilizzano quotidianamente rappresentano il riflesso di una storia complessa, intrecciata con le tradizioni, le pratiche culturali e le dinamiche sociali. Questo fascicolo della rivista Phrasis esplora gli usi del linguaggio attraverso lo studio di unità fraseologiche, locuzioni e paremie di lingue di frammentaria attestazione, con un’attenzione particolare al loro impiego nei diversi contesti storici e culturali. Dai testi didattici per l’insegnamento dell’italiano in Inghilterra tra il XVI e il XVIII secolo alle antiche formule rituali delle Tavole Iguvine, il fascicolo raccoglie una serie di contributi che indagano la paremiologia nelle sue molteplici sfaccettature. Infatti, ogni studio qui presentato permette di fare chiarezza su alcune espressioni codificate nel tempo, sulla loro funzione comunicativa e sul modo in cui esse modellano il pensiero e le interazioni sociali. Più nello specifico, attraverso un approccio interdisciplinare, il fascicolo attraversa epoche e tradizioni linguistiche differenti, collegando l’analisi linguistica alla storia, alla cultura e alla società. Questo numero di Phrasis, pertanto, si rivolge sia a specialisti del settore linguistico che a lettori interessati alla ricchezza espressiva della lingua, con il proposito di offrire spunti di riflessione sull’evoluzione delle lingue, con riferimento specifico alle categorie di comprensione e di interpretazione del mondo. In particolare, il primo contributo, firmato da Daniela D’Eugenio, tratta di unità fraseologiche e paremiologiche in uso in Inghilterra fra il 1500 e il 1700 presenti all’interno di strumenti didattici per l’apprendimento della lingua italiana. Il secondo contributo, scritto da Mario Iodice, prende in esame alcune formule rituali attestate nella grande cerimonia liturgica descritta nelle Tavole Iguvine di cui vengono valutati aspetti formali, semantici e funzionalità all’interno del testo. Più avanti, il contributo di Marco Luchi si occupa…

description: El monográfico editado por Antonio Pamies, Roza Ayupova y Chunyi Lei, bajo título Structural fixedness and conceptual idiomacity, reúne veinticuatro trabajos de una alta calidad científica y académica para la fraseología como disciplina autónoma y espacio de conocimiento de las lenguas cada vez más consolidado. Muy especialmente para líneas de investigación derivadas como es el caso de la fraseología comparada. El motivo de esta compilación, más allá de la puesta en órbita de un conjunto de experiencias descriptivas, analíticas y en fin último hermenéuticas, a partir del carácter de fijación e idiomaticidad que representa el estudio de las unidades fraseológicas, es rendir un merecido tributo a la Dra. Elena Arsenteva, quién dedicó su vida al profundo estudio de la fraseología comparada alcanzando en ello invalorables aportes a la disciplina, destacando entre tantos, la fundación de la escuela fraseológica al interno de la Universidad Kazán, Rusia. Parte de ese inmenso empeño y abnegada dedicación lo deja ver al final del libro Wolfgang Mieder en sus Epistolary Notes Between Elena Arsenteva and Wolfgagn Mieder. En esta línea, un muy preciso recuento de la vastedad de la obra académica de la Dra. Arsenteva abre el monográfico con el artículo desarrollado por Elena Nikulina y Roza Ayupova Dr. Elena Arsenteva’s contribution to bilingual phraseography and comparative phraseology. Las autoras puntualizan los hitos académicos de la investigadora, entre los que destacan su disertación doctoral centrada en el análisis de los diferentes métodos de organización de las unidades fraseológicas (UF), especialmente en el caso del Diccionario Fraseológico Ruso-Inglés mediante un exhaustivo corpus que incluyó más de cinco mil UF en ruso y más de seis mil en inglés. Cabe destacar que este diccionario sirve de base a Valerij Mokienko en este 188 Phrasis Dicembre 2023 monográfico para su estudio aproximativo en torno a las palabas aladas principalmente de origen eslavo…

type: item
description: This book review critiques the Book Paremiologia: enfoques interdisciplinares, which is a collaborative project organized by Andrea Garcia Muniz, Maria Lalicata and Thyago José da Cruz, housed under the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul in Brazil. The importance of understanding designation of linguistic terminology is highly debated, calling readers to the awareness of appropriate language use for effective communication. Historical contexts of proverbs together with their cultural nuances are dissected through the contrastive analyses of proverbs and sayings in Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, French, Ancient Greek and other European languages. The main arguments underscored in this collaborative work divided into ten chapters reveal how paremias are a pertinent resource in the study of languages and the understanding of cultural spaces.

La marcatezza locale del componente “Occhio” nei fraseologismi somatici: un’analisi contrastiva tra Russo e Italiano
type: item
description: In the idiom variation research, the grammatical category of number is considered as a flexibility dimension. These studies, however, rarely offer a cross-linguistic perspective and they do not consider the condition of local markedness of the grammatical number. This condition is evident in the components of somatic idioms, which are abundantly studied in contrastive analyses. Therefore, the present corpus-based study aimed to analyse idiomatic variation with regard to the locally marked somatic component “eye” in Italian and Russian. Specifically, somatic idioms in the singular and plural forms were extracted from the selected phraseological dictionaries for the two languages. For each somatic idiom, a quantitative and qualitative analysis on the morphological variants was conducted on the basis of the reference corpora. The availability of variants and their contexts showed that there is no total correspondence between the two grammatical forms.

Marcadores culturales fraseológicos en la novela CAPITÃES DA AREIA.
type: item
description: This article investigates the presence of Phraseological Cultural Markers in the work Capitães da Areia (2008, [1937]) by the Bahian writer Jorge Amado. It is inserted in the field of cultural and phraseological studies from a Portuguese- Spanish contrastive translatological perspective. First, the phraseological cultural markers in the work written in Portuguese in 2008 were catalogued and the Spanish translation was observed in the work translated in 2009. Next, the functioning of phraseological cultural markers has been investigated and these markers have been classified into cultural domains. Finally, the translation modalities used in the Spanish translation were identified. The methodology was developed based on the contributions of Corpus Linguistics and the result of this research is the elaboration of an online bilingual glossary (Portuguese-Spanish).

Paremieologia Racalmutese nelle opere di Leonardo Sciascia
type: item
description: The paper provides the report of a linguistic survey conducted among the speakers of Racalmuto, which allows us to frame the data collected by Sciascia in Kermesse (1982), republished in an expanded form with the title Occhio di capra (1984), and to identify the criteria chosen by the writer in the general structure of the work. In the works preceding Il contesto (1971), characterized by an adherence to realism, Sciascia often inserted proverbs and idioms from the Racalmuto dialect. For example, Gli zii di Sicilia (1958) contains phraseological structures typical of the Sicilian dialect: «cominciò a fare come il gatto quando mastica polmone» - elaborated starting from the Racalmutese «fa comu lu attu cu lu purmuni mmucca » - and Italianized dialect lexemes, sometimes with metalinguistic inserts. In the light of the linguistic data collected in the field, the writer’s choices are clarified on a phonetic level, in the direction of a standardization of the dialect, as in the verb “mitti”, puts, adapted from the Racalmutese “minti”.

La Celestina: un metatexto de sabiduría. Análisis de la traducción al italiano de las paremias de Sempronio
type: item
description: In this work, some of the paremias used by Sempronio in La Celestina will be analyzed, given the determining function that these structures of a sententious nature fulfill in the work. On the other hand, there are so many paremias present that, as Pier Luigi Crovetto maintains (cfr. Rojas, 1995: XXV), we are witnessing the construction of a “text within the text”, of a “collettore di sapienze”. The most obvious conclusion is to consider Tragicomedy as the perfect synthesis of an era, which incorporates a paremiological universe, on which to highlight the excesses of the antiheroes themselves. On the other hand, it is intended to highlight the different translation techniques (Corbeta Melchor, 2000) that the translators considered (Hordóñez and Brichetti) respect when translating La Celestina into Italian. Likewise, it is interesting to observe that translators do not always detect paremiological units in the source language and resort to literality, making the mistake that the paremia loses the idiomatic valu.

Modified winged words from a typological and terminological perspective in English, German and Italian phraseological studies: Ed è subito caos.
type: item
description: The present contribution aims at identifying typological and terminological lacunae in phraseological literature from an interlingual perspective with regards to intertextual phrasemes that are retraceable to a source or an author and that tend to function as patterns. After outlining the common ground of the theoretical foundation, this paper will show, through a comparison of basic classifications found in the English, German and Italian phraseological literature, that there is a variety of different terms used in each language. However, these typological and terminological sets do not entirely cover the full range of the objects of interest. In conclusion the concern is being raised whether it is possible and feasible providing a sufficient set of terms that can facilitate interlingual approaches.

Autour d’une représentation phraséoculturelle de l’univers féminin
type: item
description: In this paper, we concentrate on stereotypes related to the female sphere, which originate from both social and cognitive structures. These stereotypes persist in the collective imagination of both male and female communities and are challenging to eradicate. Moreover, these conceptualisations of women, conveyed through idiomatic phrases, clearly demonstrate the interconnectedness of stereotypes and metaphors, often with negative connotations. We will demonstrate that fixed expressions present a challenge in terms of accurately conveying meaning during translation, within a specific referential context and the experiential understanding of every individual.

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark - and not only there: on the Issues of the Distinction between Modifications and Schematic Idioms within Web Corpora.
type: item
description: The appearance of modern technologies that also deal with the analysis of the phraseological heritage of historical-natural languages has given the possibility to make a distinction between variants and modifications of idioms, especially thanks to their frequency in web corpora. At the same time, corpus linguistics has focused on what has long been assumed: in modern languages there are also many models, patterns that repeat themselves alongside idiosyncratic elements. In this context, a new issue arises: how to distinguish in a corpus-driven research occasional changes and phrase schemata whose slot can be filled by an often unlimited number of elements. Empirical data can be of great help for the differentiation between modifications and schematic idioms although further in-depth studies of their genesis, and their use and role in today’s European languages are necessary for their description from a cross-linguistic perspective.

El tiempo vuela: Metáforas cognitivas y fraseologismos con dominio meta TIEMPO en español y alemán
type: item
description: Within the framework of Cognitive Linguistics, this paper aims to carry out an analysis of a series of phraseologisms in Spanish and German, extracted from different dictionaries, which have ‘time’ as their target domain. The objective is to show which cognitive metaphors are most recurrent in both languages within this conceptual domain, paying special attention to the metaphor TIME IS SPACE in its various facets, e.g., in relation to the passage of time. According to Lakoff/ Johnson’s taxonomy (1980), many of the cognitive metaphors studied are based on the image schemas PATH and can be classified as ontological and/or orientational metaphors. Finally, I will present some metaphors in which the cultural component predominates, such as TIME IS A LIMITED RESOURCE or TIME IS A REVEALER OF TRUTH, which can be found in both languages.

Traduzione della fraseologia gergale della lingua russa in italiano: Focus linguistico e interculturale
type: item
description: The modern Russian business language is characterized by a wide number of phraseological expressions that belong to jargon. Company employees use them in informal contexts of business communication. These expressions have a high degree of idiomaticity linked to the cultural context; therefore, they are difficult to translate into Italian language. Aim of the paper is to propose a translation of some jargon expression taken from the Počti ser’eznyj slovar’ delovogo obščenija (Almost serious business communication dictionary) by Pogrebnjak, by highlighting their cultural characteristics in the source language and how they can be translated into Italian. The expression krepkie pomidory, for example, literally means pomodori forti. In the Russian culture, cultivating big tomatoes is a symbol of prosperity and wellness. The expression can be translated into Italian with azienda con grandi opportunità finanziarie that is a descriptive and explicative translation of the source phraseological unit. The result is that in the business intercultural communication between Russian and Italian partners it is necessary to consider the cultural and linguistic element to make the communication efficient.

Napoli e il Satyricon: Noterella sull’espressione urceatim plovebat
type: item
description: Taking a clue from Enrico Cocchia’s observations about proverbs and sayings in Petronius’ Cena Trimalchionis, the present article will compare and analyse the Latin urceatim plovebat and the Neapolitan equivalent chiovere a lancelle (or langelle) ‘to pour’. By doing so, the etymological origins and the linguistic peculiarities of both expressions will be tried to track down and be explained. In addition to this, this article will be the occasion not only for a reflection on literary aspects of the novel, but also for talking about ancient Campanian pottery and Neapolitan folklore, specifically in reference to a ritual, survived in Christian times, to propitiate the rains. These elements, which might look out of place at first sight, tie Naples with the location of Cena, generically indicated in the text with vague terms as Graeca urbs or colonia. These argumentations could confirm the goodness of some Cocchia’s insights.

Fraseologia e paremiologia nell’autismo di livello 1: Nuove prospettive per la ricerca linguistica
type: item
description: This paper is mainly focused on the study and the use of phraseological and paremiological contents by the level 1 autistic population. Specifically, the topic is treated from two different points of view: the first part is focused on the dynamics at a receptive level and the other part is about the acquisitional process of these linguistic patterns. To build a suitable research modality there will be the use of theoretical studies, which investigate in terms of method the difficulties inherent to the idiomatic and proverbial use of the language, and the application of exclusive materials to obtain results concerning the relationship between the level 1 autistic population and the linguistic structures here investigated.

Le espressioni idiomatiche gestuo-cinesiche tra corpo e cultura. Un’analisi contrastiva italiano-inglese e italiano-francese
type: item
description: This paper presents the results of two contrastive Italian-English and Italian-French studies on gestural-kinesic idioms, i.e. idioms referring to gestures and other kinesic behaviours such as movements of body parts, expressions, postures. The aim of the research was first of all to investigate how many Italian gestural- kinesic idioms have an equivalent in English and French. It turns out that this is true for 50% of the idioms in the case of French and for 61% of them in the case of English. The highest number of equivalences is found in the idioms that refer to kinesic behaviours that are supposed to be universal, whereas cultural features mostly hinder the existence of equivalents in the different languages. The perspective of crosslinguistic comparison allows for the full emergence, and better understanding, of the interplay of biological, cognitive and cultural factors of which gestural-kinesic idioms are a paradigmatic case.

Presentazione
type: item
description: Questo volume offre uno studio di aspetti linguistici e culturali di ampia inquadratura collegati alla fraseologia e alla paremiologia di una stessa lingua e di lingue diverse. Ciascun contributo è l’espressione della prospettiva adottata nel proprio campo di ricerca e dell’approccio applicato alla fraseologia e alla paremiologia da parte di studiose e studiosi. Il volume, ricco di spunti e risultati, si articola in undici saggi e una rassegna. Il primo contributo, redatto da Federica Casadei, dell’Università della Tuscia, e Priscilla Benke dell’Université de Caen Normandie, si intitola “Le espressioni idiomatiche gestuo-cinesiche tra corpo e cultura: un’ analisi contrastiva italiano-inglese e italiano-francese”. Le autrici espongono i risultati di due indagini contrastive italiano-inglese e italiano-francese riguardanti le espressioni idiomatiche (EI) gestuo- cinesiche, cioè caratterizzate dal riferimento a gesti e ad altri comportamenti cinesici, come movimenti di parti del corpo, espressioni, posture (girarsi i pollici, storcere il naso, mettersi in ginocchio). Il secondo contributo, curato da Cristina Filigheddu dell’Università per Stranieri di Siena, intitolato “Fraseologia e paremiologia nell’autismo di livello 1: nuove prospettive per la ricerca linguistica”, intraprende l’analisi di interventi che danno risalto all’uso di contenuti fraseologici e paremiologici da parte della popolazione autistica di livello 1. In particolare il percorso verte sulle dinamiche a livello ricettivo e sul processo d’acquisizione di questo tipo di strutture. Il terzo contributo, a cura di Marco Luchi dell’ I.S.S. Ferraris - Brunelleschi, intitolato “Napoli e il Satyricon: noterella sull’espressione urceatim plovebat”, prende spunto dalle osservazioni di Enrico Cocchia sui proverbi e i modi di dire nella Cena Trimalchionis di Petronio, confrontando e analizzando il latino urceatim plovebat e l’equivalente napoletano chiovere a lancelle (o langelle) ‘piovere a orci’. In esso, si cer…

Julia Sevilla Muñoz y la formación de jóvenes investigadores
type: item
description: Julia Sevilla dedica una especial atención a la formación de jóvenes investigadores, como fue mi caso. Yo la conocí al cursar los estudios de doctorado en fraseología y paremiología en la Universidad Complutense de Madrid. No solo me enseñó técnicas de investigación, sino que, gracias a sus consejos, pude mejorar mi curriculum vitae de tal manera que conseguí una beca predoctoral y quedé la primera de la lista. Julia Sevilla no se limitó a dar consejos, sino que me enseñó a redactar en lenguaje académico, a publicar artículos, a hablar en público, a preparar ponencias, conferencias, a dar clase, a organizar seminarios y jornadas científicas,… ¿Cómo lo hacía? Nos llevaba a jornadas para jóvenes lingüistas, de las que hay muchas ahora. Nos llevaba a congresos en los que participaban investigadores consagrados y nos “obligaba” a presentar nuestra propia ponencia como actividad del Doctorado. La víspera de la intervención nos escuchaba y nos daba recomendaciones de cara a la exposición. En sus viajes suele ir acompañada de uno o dos jóvenes investigadores para que se vean en situaciones reales, dando clases, pronunciando conferencias o ponencias. Ese viaje es un continuo y fructífero aprendizaje que permite sacar lo positivo de cada uno y, además, favorece la creación de la relación maestro-discípulo, una relación duradera basada en la admiración y en el respeto mutuo que despierta una gran amistad. Además, Julia Sevilla trata de aprender de sus discípulos, lo que demuestra su humildad y su predisposición a la formación continua...

Julia Sevilla Muñoz y su labor recopiladora de refranes
type: item
description: Empecé a acercarme al estudio de la Paremiología tras la participación en el Seminario Internacional Miguel de Cervantes organizado por la profesora María Antonella Sardelli y celebrado en Bari en abril de 2007. Durante el seminario tuve la posibilidad de conocer a la profesora, Catedrática en Traducción e Interpretación y paremióloga de gran renombre de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Julia Sevilla Muñoz y como se engendraba en mí la idea de hacer un Doctorado le pedí, explicándole mi proyecto, que fuera mi Directora. A partir de este encuentro, la colaboración con mi maestra no ha cesado nunca. El interés por querer conocer los enunciados sentenciosos más empleados en la variante siciliana de la ciudad de Mesina, uno de los argumentos principales de mi tesis doctoral, me ha permitido acercarme a la sección dirigida por Julia Sevilla Muñoz «El refranero hoy», alojado en la revista Paremia, que nace con el fin de recopilar paremias populares, en especial, refranes directamente del pueblo y ofrece un valioso material para la investigación paremiográfica en una época en que se observa una pérdida de la competencia paremiológica por parte de la generación más joven. Cabe citar también la existencia en el siglo XXI de bases de datos sobre refranes para cuya recopilación se tienen en cuenta tanto fuentes escritas como fuentes orales. Un ejemplo se encuentra en el corpus de paremias populares Refranero multilingüe, dirigido por Julia Sevilla Muñoz y M.ª I. Teresa Zurdo Ruiz-Ayúcar, publicado en la página web del Centro Virtual Cervantes, que de forma paulatina revisa y amplía sus contenidos e incluye también material proporcionado por los informantes que son los principales usuarios de esta manifestaciones lingüísticas...
