Abstract
Anna Plishkova. Language and National Identity: Rusyns South of Carpathians. Patricia A. Krafcik, trans. East European Monographs, 748. New York: Columbia University Press, 2009. xix, 230 pp. Bio-bibliographic intro by P. R. Magocsi. Maps. Bibliography. Illustrations. $55.00, cloth.This book is an expanded translation of a monograph published in Slovak in 2007 by Anna Plishkova, Director of the Institute of Rusyn Language and Culture at Presov University. Published under the auspices of the Carpatho-Rusyn Research Centre, the present work deals with the language as it relates to Carpatho-Rusyn national identity in eastern Slovakia (p. 7). Apart the translator's preface and the author's foreword and introduction, the book contains two chapters: chapter 1, Literary Language as an Instrument of Rusyn National Identity, offers an historical synopsis of the Rusyn language the 17th century onward. Chapter 2 investigates the functional domains of the Rusyn literary language in modern Slovakia. The book concludes with a bibliography (which, incidentally, omits a recent monograph by Elaine Rusinko, Literature andldentity in Subcarpathian Rus' [2003]) as well as numerous illustrations of major publications in Rusyn (beginning with the title page of the 1596 Slavonic Grammar by Lavrentii Zyzanii [sic]).The work opens with a laudatory biography of Anna Plishkova penned by Paul Robert Magocsi, who has deemed it necessary to contextualize a gradual transformation of Plishkova into one of the leaders of the Carpatho-Rusyn s following the Velvet Revolution of 1989. Magocsi lists thirty -two works published by Plishkova since 1996, emphasizing the fact that she is the first to have written and defended a doctoral dissertation in the Rusyn language (p. xiii). Despite the author's impressive credentials, the book's coverage of the Rusyn language leaves Plishkova open to charges of biased selection and incompetence in the field of linguistics. For example, the introduction is replete with truisms like from a linguistic point of view, all languages are equally valuable (p. 6) and misconceptions like the psycholinguistic question [sic] whether the Rusyn dialects possess a level of dignity sufficient to constitute the basis for a distinct literary language (p. 10). Ignoring dialectal evidence like that contained in the A tias of the Ukrainian Language ( 1 984-200 1 ) and in Vasyl Latta' s Atlas of the Ukrainian Dialects of East Slovakia (1991), Plishkova appears incognizant of the pan-Ukrainian foundations of the Rusyn dialects. Citing twelve dialectal features that have served as the basis for the codification of an independent Rusyn literary language (pp. …
