Humor in Modern American Poetry
ISBN: 9781501334733 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Modern poetry, at least according to the current consensus, is difficult and often depressing. In the modern era, poetry ceased to be a popular genre and retreated into the realm of High Culture. But as Humor in Modern American Poetry shows, modern poetry is full of humorous moments, from comic verse published in popular magazines to the absurd juxtapositions of The Cantos. The essays in this collection show that humor is as essential to the serious work of William Carlos Williams as it is to the light verse of Phyllis McGinley. For the writers in this volume, the point of... Modern poetry, at least according to the current consensus, is difficult and often depressing.

Military High Schools in America
ISBN: 9781598741162 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (dostawa w 2025) Once considered a bastion of learning, leadership, and disciplined lifestyle, today's private military academies are often regarded as expensive holding facilities for unwanted, incorrigible boys who have nowhere else to go. Their depiction in popular media has reinforced the impression that they are boot camps disguised as educational institutions. The reality is far more complex and far more encouraging. Using a decade of participant observation research, including serving as an instructor at some of these schools, anthropologist William Trousdale explores the contemporary experience of...

The Oxford Handbook of Construction Grammar
ISBN: 9780190463212 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 610 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (dostawa w 2025) The last decade has seen a rise in popularity in construction-based approaches to grammar. The various approaches within the rubric 'construction grammar' all see language as a network of constructions-pairings of form and meaning. Construction Grammar, as a kind of cognitive linguistics, differs significantly from mainstream generative grammar as espoused by Chomsky and his followers. Advocates of Construction Grammar see it as a psychologically plausible theory of human language. As such, it is capable of providing a principled account of language acquisition, language variation and...

This collection of articles brings together new research from both established and emerging international experts in the study of English grammar, all of whom have engaged with the notion of 'construction' in their work. The research here is concerned with both synchrony and diachrony, with the relationship between Construction Grammar and other linguistic theories, and with a number of issues in the study of grammar, such as raising and control phenomena, transitivity, relative clause structure, the syntax of gerunds, attributive and predicative uses of adjectives, modality, and...

Cotton Patch Rebel
ISBN: 9781498220170 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Clarence Jordan seemed to be born with an ability to see things just a little bit differently than other people did--and sometimes that got him into trouble. Like his views on racial equality: they just weren't popular with many other White people in the Deep South of his day. Like his views on war and how to deal with violence and hatred. For Clarence, the Gospel was very clear about these issues. Moreover, he believed that Jesus's teachings were not just abstract principles but were meant to be applied directly to everyday life. That got him into trouble too, especially among certain...

Constructionalization and Constructional Changes
ISBN: 9780198783541 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (dostawa w 2025) In this book Elizabeth Closs Traugott and Graeme Trousdale develop an approach to language change based on construction grammar. Construction grammar is a theory of signs construed at the level of the phrase, clause, and complex sentence. Until now it has been mainly synchronic. The authors use it to reconceptualize grammaticalization (the process by which verbs like 'to have' lose semantic content and gain grammatical functions, or word order is reorganised as syntax-prominent rather than discourse-prominent), and lexicalization (in which idioms become fixed and complex words simplified)....
