Elementos para a configuração do campo léxico da "linguagem" (VÂC) no Regvedasamhitã

Abstract

Nowadays it is consentaneous the certification that the Rgvedasamhitâ (= RV) constitutes, at the body of its expressions and metaphorical turnings, a vast reflexion upon the powers of the language. This paper has the purpose of studying, pointing analogies with linguistic concepts, eight words that are used recurrently at the RV and that shape a lexical field centered at the topic of “language” (vâc).
