Tocharian "man" vs. "god" in Perspective of Semantic Oppositions
Original language description
The present study is divided into two parts. In the first part two main semantic oppositions between the Indo-European terms for ‘man’ and ‘god’ are discussed: ‘terrestrial’ versus ‘celestial’ and ‘mortal’ versus ‘immortal’ respectively. In the second part the binary oppositions are applied to the relevant Tocharian terms, giving a background for discussions about alternative etymological reinterpretations of both Tocharian A oṅk, B eṅkwe ‘man’ and A ñkät, B ñakte ‘god’. Finally, the hypothetical Phrygian and Messapic continuants of the main Indo-European term ‘earth’ are analyzed.
