The essay analyzes the notion of inadequacy in literary onomastics: ghost names; anachronisms and geographical inconsistencies, unintentionally ridiculous names, etc. In summary, a name is inadequate if it does not reach the functional target for which it is created by an author. However, the notion of inadequacy is relative: it depends on historical ages and literary contexts.

Abstract
The essay analyzes the notion of inadequacy in literary onomastics: ghost names; anachronisms and geographical inconsistencies, unintentionally ridiculous names, etc. In summary, a name is inadequate if it does not reach the functional target for which it is created by an author. However, the notion of inadequacy is relative: it depends on historical ages and literary contexts.File in questo prodotto:
