Streetscapes are part of the taken-for-granted spaces of everyday urban life, yet they are also contested arenas in which struggles over identity, memory, and place shape the social production of urban space. This book examines the role that street naming has played in the political life of urban streetscapes in both historical and contemporary cities. The renaming of streets and remaking of urban commemorative landscapes have long been key strategies that different political regimes have employed to legitimize spatial assertions of sovereign authority, ideological hegemony, and symbolic power. Over the past few decades, a rich body of critical scholarship has explored the politics of urban toponymy, and the present collection brings together the works of geographers, anthropologists, historians, linguists, planners, and political scientists to examine the power of street naming as an urban place-making practice. Covering a wide range of case studies from cities in Europe, North America, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Asia, the contributions to this volume illustrate how the naming of streets has been instrumental to the reshaping of urban spatial imaginaries and the cultural politics of place.

In this handbook, scholars from around the world offer an up-to-date account of the state of the art in different areas of onomastics, in a format that is both useful to specialists in related fields and accessible to the general reader. Since Ancient Greece, names have been regarded as central to the study of language, and this has continued to be a major theme of both philosophical and linguistic enquiry throughout the history of Western thought. The investigation of name origins is more recent, as is the study of names in literature. Relatively new is the study of names in society, which draws on techniques from sociolinguistics and has gradually been gathering momentum over the last few decades. The structure of this volume reflects the emergence of the main branches of name studies, in roughly chronological order. The first Part focuses on name theory and outlines key issues about the role of names in language, focusing on grammar, meaning, and discourse. Parts II and III deal with the study of place-names and personal names respectively, while Part IV outlines contrasting approaches to the study of names in literature, with case studies from different languages and time periods. Part V explores the field of socio-onomastics, with chapters relating to the names of people, places, and commercial products. Part VI then examines the interdisciplinary nature of name studies, before the concluding Part presents a selection of animate and inanimate referents ranging from aircraft to animals, and explains the naming strategies adopted for them.

"தமிழில்: சிவசக்தி சரவணண் அதிகாரபூர்வமான அரசுப் பதவி எதையும் வகித்ததில்லை. ஆயுதம் எதையும் தரித்ததில்லை. பண பலம், படை பலம் இரண்டும் இல்லை. இருந்தும் அந்த மெலிந்த, எளிமையான இளம் வழக்கறிஞரின் பின்னால் ஒரு தேசமே அணிதிரண்டு நின்றது. காந்தி தன்னைக் கண்டறிந்தது தென்னாப்பிரிக்காவில். பிற்-காலத்-தில் வெற்றிகரமாக அவர் பிரயோகித்த போராட்ட வழிமுறையை அவர் தென்னாப்பிரிக்காவில்தான் கண்டறிந்து, கூர்தீட்டிக்கொண்டார். காந்தியின் அரசியல் சிந்தனைகள், மதம் பற்றிய பார்வை, அறம் சார்ந்த விழுமியங்கள் என அனைத்துக்குமான அடிப்படைகள் தென்னாப்பிரிக்காவில் உருப்பெற்றுவிட்டன. காந்தி குறித்து இதுவரை வெளிவந்துள்ள நூல்கள் அனைத்-திலுமிருந்து குஹாவின் இந்தப் புத்தகம் மாறுபடுகிறது. இந்தியா, இங்கிலாந்து, தென்னாப்பிரிக்கா முதலான நாடுகளில் உள்ள ஆவணக் காப்பகங்களிலிருந்து பல புதிய ஆதாரங்களைத் திரட்டி மிக விரிவான ஒரு தளத்தில் ஒருங்கிணைத்து இந்நூல் எழுதப்பட்டுள்ளது. பிரிட்டிஷ் சாம்ராஜ்ஜியத்துக்கு எதிராக காந்தி பிற்காலத்தில் தொடுத்த போருக்கான ஆதாரப்புள்ளி தென்னாப்பிரிக்காதான் என்பதை ராமச்சந்திர குஹா அசாதாரணமான முறையில் இதில் நிறுவியுள்ளார். காந்தியின் அரசியல் வாழ்வோடு அதிகம் அறியப்படாத அவருடைய தனிப்பட்ட வாழ்வும் பிரம்மாண்டமாக விவரிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. காந்தியின் தொகுக்கப்பட்ட படைப்புகளில் இல்லாத பல அரிய தகவல்களும் இந்நூலில் இடம்பெற்றுள்ளன. உலகம் முழுவதிலுமிருந்து பாராட்டுகளைப் பெற்றிருக்கும் ராமச்சந்திர குஹாவின் Gandhi Before India நூலின் அதிகாரபூர்வமான தமிழாக்கம் இது."

Since 1819, more than 6,200 place (street and village) names divided into more than 3,900 name groups were known in Singapore. Based on digitised historical newspapers, dated back to 1830, municipal records and Malay dictionaries, the origins, meanings and date of naming for many place names are uncovered. As part of Singapore history, place names known since 1936 are recorded in this book.Although place names are fairly static in nature, there have been more than 100 name changes. The naming trends transitioned from English to Malay and then back to English names. Discover that Toa Payoh was not named after a big swamp, Anderson Road was named before John Anderson, a former Governor, took up his job and many more new findings in this exciting book.This book is a complete listing of all place names since 1936, together with the most comprehensive annotations to date — a first in Singapore. It is also the only book of its kind that analyses naming trends. Information on the origins or date of naming was based on primary sources such as old maps, minutes of municipal meetings, Chinese books and digitised newspapers.
