TY - JOUR A1 - Haldenwang, Sigrid T1 - Zu den Heiligennamen "Bartholomäus" und "Johannes" im Siebenbürgisch-Sächsischen, die auf biblische Heilige und deren Geburtstage zurückgehen T2 - Germanistische Beiträge N2 - The article initially covers the historical information regarding two biblical saints „Saint Bartholomew“ and „John the Baptist“ and their birthdays. In vernacular documents from 1900 to 1980 inclusively, the Transylvanian-Saxon names „Bartholomew“ and „John“ were related to the respective saint. The vernacular documents show that their birthdays were playing a role in seasonal determination for peasant work as well as being used in descriptive country sayings, in idioms and in traditional customs. The case examples are taken from the TransylvanianSaxon Dictionary, the North Transylvanian Dictionary, as well as relevant specialist and vernacular literature.
