| Popis: | The paper provides the linguistic analysis of the World Tree shaped token named Yggdrasil which is one of the most important images of the Old Norse linguoculture. The methods of Linguistic Genetics are used to research this shaped token. The result of this research is the presence of the interrelation between the conceptual contents contained in this shaped token and a number of Indo-European words with the semantics of sanctity (for example, the words with meaning of the heaven sphere). Those facts are the proof of the conceptual content multitude of the World Tree’s shaped token. Consequently, The World Tree has a central position in the mythopoetic space-time continuum of the Old Germanic tribes. |
