The present paper focuses on the analysis of the formulaic expressions with the verb remain, which were used as letter closing formulae in private correspondence during the American Civil War. Sequences comprising one of the phrases: I/we remain(s) and but/only/so/still/etc. remain(s) were scrutinized in order to verify whether Dylewski’s claim (2018) that the origin of the two types of formulae took different paths of development holds true as regards highly homogenous material produced by uneducated writers. The study was based on over four thousand letters written by soldiers and their relatives, compiled and digitized in Private Voices on-line repository. MLA

translation theory in historical perspective,
religion in translation – historical and modern perspectives,
from theory to practice, and
applications (cf. Look Inside),

the material will be of interest to both academics researching translation as a discipline and translators practicing the craft.

Między tekstem a kulturą: Z zagadnień przekładoznawstwa [—between text and culture: on translation studies] is the first volume in the new series Beyond Language, published under the auspices of the College for Interdisciplinary Studies, University of Wrocław.
