The goal of the article is to present two quantitative methods of assessing the degree of political colonization of municipal space by official urbanonymy. This is done in order to provide a tool which will enable the researchers to test hypotheses and measure the property with needed exactitude. To this end, four municipal units from the Moravian-Silesian region, the Czech Republic, have been selected – namely, the former village of Ostrava-Hošťálkovice, the intra-estate city quarter of Ostrava-Pustkovec, the village of Dolní Lhota, and the medium-sized city of Studénka. The methods presented are street-sign distances (SSD), which map the density of the street sign-carrying objects, and street-sign irradiation (SSI), which measures the number of street signs placed on individual objects. It has been proved that both metrics may furnish some information about the way the public space is colonized in the chosen settlement units, and some interpretations were provided on their bases. In order to draw a general picture of political colonization, two things need to be carried out – more indexes should be brought into the game, and more municipalities investigated.

Cílem článku je představit dvě metody, které vymezují míru politické kolonizace městského prostoru oficiální urbanonymií. Cílem je poskytnout nástroje, pomocí nichž bude možné testovat hypotézy a měřit danou vlastnost s potřebnou přesností. Za tímto účelem byly z Moravskoslezského kraje v České republice vybrány čtyři sídelní jednotky – bývalá vesnice Ostrava-Hošťálkovice, městská část Ostrava-Pustkovec, která je umístěna mezi sídlišti, vesnice Dolní Lhota a středně velké město Studénka. Metody, které zde budou prezentovány, jsou vzdálenosti uličních označníků (SSD), jež zachycují hustotu objektů s uličními názvy, a iradiace uličních označníků (SSI), která zachycuje počet označníků na jednom objektu. Bylo prokázáno, že obě metriky jsou s to poskytnout informace o tom, jak byl prostor ve vybraných sídelních jednotkách kolonizován, a na jejich základě bylo vypracováno několik interpretací. Aby bylo možné o politické kolonizaci pojednat obšírněji, je třeba se zaměřit na dva aspekty – jednak vzít v potaz více indexů, jednak prozkoumat více sídelních jednotek.

The paper focuses on the frequency and collocation analyses of Česko (“Czechia”), the short, geographical name of our country, in the opinion journalism section of the eight-version SYN corpus, which comprises texts from the period of 1990−2018. Within the scope of the research, the period was divided into several sections, which are delineated by the breakthrough political and cultural events (the Czech Republic entering NATO, the Czech Republic entering the EU, climax of the first season of the Pop Idol-based contest Czechia Is Looking for a SuperStar, etc.). The frequency analysis is based on the relativization via i.p.m.; the collocability force is counted on the grounds of the logDice index, which is easy to be interpreted linguistically, and independent of the corpus size. The goal of the study is to capture basic motivations which led to the popularisation of the name and its expansion in the given discourse (e.g. the influences of other one-word names of states, sport commentaries, popular contests, and generation change). It is possible to sum up that the Česko name is employed in a variety of contexts, and its usage can be seen as unmarked.

The study investigates the possible identity of Vladimír Vašek (= Petr Bezruč), author of Silesian Songs and The Blue Underwing, and Pavel Hrzánský, who authored Poems: Opus no. 5, a book of verse bearing some similarities to the future development of Vašek’s poetic self. The research is carried out via a novel authorship attribution method based on the investigation of numbers and numerals. This new investigation is complemented by the standardly employed MFC and MFW analyses. All the inquiries corroborate that Vašek’s authorship of Hrzánský’s poems is implausible. If the Hrzánský−Bezruč link is to be maintained in liter

This study is focused on the survey of a non-standardized (popular) toponymy of the fifth district of the municipal borough of Ostrava-Poruba, which was established, as a prototypical socialistic housing estate, from the 1940s to the 1980s. The green-field establishment of a self-sufficient city, the yard-based shaping of the construction, and the way the standardized toponymical structure was politically charged (commemorative names) became the main triggers and background of the development of popular urban names; these are studied from two different social groups’ points of view. The research started in a family whose three generations had been closely linked to the district; this survey was followed by another one, focusing on pupils of the local elementary school.

The aim of this paper is to present the potential of quantitative methods for the research of proper names (mostly personal and place names) as units operating in Czech texts. Three case studies treat particular research topics on the background of the development of Czech onomastics in the 20th century and in the first decades of the 21st century. They are aimed at 1) quantification of relational (semantic) patterns; 2) collocation analysis; 3) morphological categories of proper names. The text also provides an overview of previous attempts to apply quantitative and corpus approaches to proper name research.

The study examines selected samples of Czech 1830s poetry production through the prism of a quantitative conception of euphony. Stemming from Jan Mukařovský’s reflections on the topic, it tries to strengthen the notion through the creation of exact figures with intersubjective validity. To this end, the count of this property devised by Gabriel Altmann is utilized and innovated by a new unit – the consonant set – which endeavours to grasp the phonetic reality of language more effectively than the casually used concept of sound. The analysis proves the solid character of the new unit, shows interrelations between the two calculations, and proposes a few interpretations of the euphony situation in Czech poetry of the 1830s. Moreover, it demonstrates effective ways of displaying data results by means of scatter plots and cluster analyses. As a spinoff of the core idea, the paper also explores Mukařovský’s high evaluation of Mácha’s use of euphony.
