monograph

text: It may still be years before we see, what we all look forward to, the great and final book on Knossos. Meanwhile learned monographs on different sections of the subject have been fast accumulating. They form the principal contents of six successive Annuals of the British School at Athens, and a not inconsiderable portion of the six corresponding volumes of The Journal of Hellenic Studies.

de-proper noun

expansion: Bonn n (proper noun, genitive Bonns or (optionally with an article) Bonn)

forms:

Bonn (genitive with-article)

etymology_text:
From Middle High German Bonne, Bunne, from Old High German Bunna, from Proto-West Germanic *Bunnā, from Latin Bonna, short for Castra Bonnensia. The Germanic form shows its very old age in the replacement of -o- with -u-, which then also failed to undergo a-mutation because of the following nasal geminate. The modern German -o- is per se a regular development (cf. Sonne, Wonne), but was likely reinforced by readaptation to the Latin.
One theory relates it to the tribe Eburones. Folk etymology has proposed origin from dedication to Saint Boniface, but this is a crass anachronism. During the Middle Ages, Bonn was often called Verona in Latin texts.

East Germany

text: Subsequently, the GDR’s antifascist tradition would be diluted, distorted, and refashioned into an ahistorical national origins myth in which the citizens of East Germany were officially proclaimed the “victors of history,” but where little space remained for the real and complicated history, not to mention ambivalent role of Stalinized Communism, behind it.

ref: 2017 May 23, Loren Balhorn, “The Lost History of Antifa”, in Jacobin Magazine:

text: In August 2021, Williams visited the Republic of Molossia, an 11.3-acre micronation in Nevada that declared independence from the United States of America in 1998, where he was given a personal tour by “His Excellency President Kevin Baugh.” He learned about the Republic of Molossia’s ongoing “war” with now-defunct East Germany, how the local currency (the “valora”) is backed by chocolate chip cookie dough instead of gold, and had his passport stamped and his photo taken on the “border” with the United States.
