    * * *
    older form byggva, ð, [for the etymology v. búa], gener. to inhabit, settle, people, always in a transitive sense—not neut. as. búa—but often used absol. or ellipt., land being understood:
    α. to settle as a colonist; Hrollaugr bygði austr á Síðu, Ketilbjörn bygði suðr at Mosfelli, Auðr bygði vestr í Breiðafirði, Helgi bygði norðr í Eyjafirði, all these instances referring to the first settlers of Icel., Íb. ch. 1. 2; en þat vas es hann tók byggva landit, id.; sumar þat er þeir Ingólfr fóru at b. Ísland, the summer before Ingolf settled in Iceland, ch. 6; Íngólfr … bygði fyrstr landit, i. e. Ingolf was the first settler, id.; so in numberless instances, esp. of the Íb. and Landn., e. g. Landn. 42, 334, Eb. 8, Hrafn. 4, Eg. 99, 100; eptir Nóa-flóð lifðu átta menn þeir er heiminn bygðu ( peopled), Edda (pref.)
    β. to inhabit, live in a country; þesskonar þjóð es Vínland hefir bygt, Íb. ch. 6; þá er landit hafði sex tigi vetra bygt verit, Landn. 321; þeir b. þat hérað á Vindlandi er Ré heitir, Fms. xi. 378, H. E. i. 494, Bret. 100: allit. phrases, á bygðu bóli, i. e. among men, where men live; bygðr bólstaðr, possessed land, Grág. ii. 214: the proverb, með lögum skal land byggja, with laws shall man build land, i. e. law builds (makes) lands and home; and some add, en með ólögum eyða; eyða ( to lay waste) and byggja are thus opposed to one another, Nj. 106; b. bæ, to settle on a farm; segi ek af því fyrst hversu bærinn hefir bygzk í Skálaholti … Ketilbjörn bygði þann bæ fyrstr er í Skálaholti heitir, Bs. i. 60; hann bygði bæ þann er í Eyju heitir, Gísl. 91, where it does not mean to build houses, as in the mod. use of this phrase, but to settle, Lat. inhabitare.
    γ. in more special or law phrases, to dwell in, occupy; b. sæng, to keep one’s bed, sleep, Fas. i. 314; b. eina sæng, of married people, Fms. ii. 134; b. með e-m, to cohabit, Stj. 176; b. höll, to occupy a hall, Fms. vi. 147, x. 236; b. á skipum, undir tjöldum, to live aboard ship, in tents, vii. 138; b. hálfrými, a naut. term, viii. 199: metaph., cf Guð byggvir í þeim, Eluc. 52, cp. also the references from the N. T. above under búa, where most of the Icel. Edd. use byggja.
    2. to build a house, ship, or the like, [Scot. and North. E. to big; Dan. bygge; Swed. bygga]: this sense, common over all Scandinavia and North Britain, seems not to occur in Icel. writers before the 15th century or the end of the 14th, but is freq. at the present time; it occurs in the Ann. 1401, 1405, etc. Old writers always say, reisa or göra hús, skip …, not byggja.
    3. reflex. to be inhabited; Ísland bygðisk fyrst ór Noregi, Íb. ch. 1; Grænland fansk ok bygðisk af Íslandi, ch. 6; hundraði ára fyrr en Ísland bygðisk af Norðmönnum, Landn. (pref.); en áðr Ísland bygðisk, id.; þá er Ísland fansk ok bygðisk af Noregi, id.

  • 7 vigilante

    •• vigilante, vigilante justice

    •• * Vigilante – поистине неподатливое в переводе слово. Перевод в Новом БАРСе – член отрядов бдительности – в подавляющем большинстве случаев не годится хотя бы потому, что такие отряды были когда-то, но сейчас vigilante чаще всего одиночка (правда, у Довлатова в одном из писем есть свидетельство, что в 1970-е годы, когда в Нью-Йорке свирепствовала преступность, «евреи в Бруклине – главным образом одесситы – создали что-то вроде милиции, организовали дозоры, ходят с автоматами»).
    •• В современном употреблении vigilante ассоциируется с известным героем Бронсона: это «самозваный шериф» и одновременно – мститель.
    •• В последнее время словосочетание vigilante justice встречается в прессе в связи с новой американской стратегической доктриной:
    •• To some observers, the very act of one country preemptively attacking another carries troubling echoes of vigilante justice. (Washington Post)
    •• А вот более обыденный пример:
    •• A controversial flier promoting vigilante justice is circulating around a Baltimore neighborhood that is tired of crime. The flier tells residents to punish people who have been stealing dirt bikes.
    •• В обоих случаях речь идет, конечно же, о самоуправстве (в переводе второго примера можно попробовать и самосуд). Разумеется, это не значит, что самоуправство надо переводить с русского как vigilante justice. Ср., например: Касьянов вызвал Наздратенко и стал выговаривать ему за самоуправство. («Новая газета») Предлагаемый словарями, например Oxford Russian Dictionary, вариант arbitrariness звучит несколько неестественно. Лучше – reprimanded him/took him to task for exceeding his authority.
    •• Судя по примерам из New York Times, кроме vigilante justice, в моду входит vigilante action:
    •• The war that took place was a kind of vigilante action that cannot be justified practically or morally.
    •• <...> Let others fight over whether the war in Iraq was a neocon vigilante action disrupting diplomacy.
    •• The neocons have moved on to a vigilante action to occupy diplomacy.
    •• В первом случае вполне приемлемо все то же самоуправство, хотя незаконная акция тоже, пожалуй, подойдет. Во втором случае так и хочется сказать спецоперация.
    •• В значении самоуправство употребляется и vigilantism. Подзаголовок статьи из Guardian:
    •• The legacy of Iraq is that intervention will be seen as vigilantism.
    •• И далее:
    •• The result would not be a strengthening of the international community but a new form of international vigilantism and the return, in liberal guise, of the principle that might is right.
    •• ( Might is right – возможны разные переводы, в том числе Сила есть – ума не надо; Кто сильней, тот и прав.)
    •• В следующем сообщении Associated Press – интересный пример контекстуальной синонимии:
    •• Three Americans accused of torturing Afghans in a private jail during a freelance counterterror mission went on trial Wednesday, with their ringleader denying any wrongdoing and claiming active U.S. government support. Jonathan K. Idema, Brett Bennett and Edward Caraballo were arrested when Afghan security forces raided a house in Kabul on July 5. American and Afghan officials say they were vigilantes posing as U.S. special forces and had no official backing.
    •• Очевидно, что freelance mission и vigilantes относятся в этом контексте к общему семантическому полю. По-русски это поле описывается словом самодеятельность, т.е. действия без соответствующих полномочий. Учитывая, что активисты антитеррористической борьбы попали под суд, freelance counterterror mission можно, наверное, перевести как незаконная антитеррористическая миссия, а последнее предложение примерно так:
    •• Американские и афганские официальные лица утверждают, что эта самодеятельная акция, участники которой выдавали себя за военнослужащих специальных сил США, не имела поддержки властей.
