Visions and Revisions: Studies in Theoretical and Applied Linguistics
ISBN: 9783631656259 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 251 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The papers reflect on visions and revisions of selected theoretical and applied linguistic issues. Methodologically, they all reflect and contribute to the polarization between form- and substance-oriented approaches that are typically identified with, respectively, structural and functional paradigms. The diversity of standpoints exemplified and the divergence of operational tools employed make the volume a representative spectrum of the on-going developments in how language is conceptualized and analyzed as both an abstract entity and as a medium of communication, language teaching and...

Audiovisual Translation - Research and Use: 2nd Expanded Edition
ISBN: 9783631774496 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book explores two strands of Audiovisual Translation referred to as "research" and "use". As their points of convergence as well as divergence are brought to light, the contributors show that the two tend to overlap and cross-pollinate. The volume's inquiries of linguistic, cultural, sociological, computational, educational and historical nature give a comprehensive up-to-date account of AVT as an expanding and heterogeneous, yet internally coherent, field of scientific and professional endeavour. "The book offers a good balance of chapters dealing with new topics and chapters...

Cognition in Context: New Insights Into Language, Culture and the Mind
ISBN: 9783631785584 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. As cognitive scientists continue to probe into the nature of the human mind, it is increasingly clear that research into cognition cannot be dissociated from the context in which our mental activity occurs. The papers collected in this book testify to the growing interest in adopting a broad characterisation of what counts as relevant context. The vices of seeking essences behind complex phenomena should not go unnoticed, the primary, and possibly the most crucial, downside of this approach being a reductionist treatment of the human mind. With this book, the authors want to show that humans...

From Motion to Emotion: Aspects of Physical and Cultural Embodiment in Language
ISBN: 9783631659427 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This volume has its origins in an international conference on emotions organized by the Polish Association for the Study of English and held at the University of Wroclaw in April 2015. In the course of the conference, it became clear that emotions are productively explored with relation to motion for the reason that emotion(s) and motion(s) constitute profoundly intertwined dimensions of physical and cultural embodiment reflected in language. The relationship between motion(s) and emotion(s) became the underlying theme of this volume, which comprises nineteen contributions presenting...

Forest Farmers and Stockherders: Early Agriculture and Its Consequences in North-Central Europe
ISBN: 9780521103602 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Drawing extensively on anthropological theory and ecological models of human adaptation, Forest Farmers and Stockherders explores the single most radical transformation in all European prehistory - the growth of a food-producing economy in the period 5000 3000 BC. Dr Bogucki seeks to develop a coherent view of the introduction of food production to north-central Europe, identifying new environmental zones being exploited for the first time and new ecological adaptations being adopted by both indigenous and colonizing populations. He lays particular emphasis on the strategies developed by...

Areas and Methods of Audiovisual Translation Research: Third Revised Edition
ISBN: 9783631788103 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. "This little gem offers the reader an overview of the various practices that form part of the ever increasing field of audiovisual translation (AVT) and makes brave inroads into the less glamorous but definitely needed areas of theory and research. Covering a wide range of topics in research in AVT, and admittedly questioning "whether a universal methodology for audiovisual translation research is feasible", this volume theorises about the nature of AVT, helps to frame some of the current trends, and points to potentially new research avenues. The style is reader friendly and to the point; a...

The Entrenchment of the «Unus Alterum» Pattern: Four Essays on Latin and Old Romance Reciprocal Constructions
ISBN: 9783631676592 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 117 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this book, the author presents that although various Old Romance grammars can be traced back to the common Latin ancestor, the functional domain of reciprocity shows divergent paths of development. In this regard, each of the languages have worked up their unique solutions, with grammatical and semantic mechanisms underlying their diversity.

Chaucer's Choices: Through the Looking-Glass of Medieval Imagery
ISBN: 9783631663837 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The monograph discusses the relation between language and visual culture, focusing on two Chaucerian narratives, -Knight s Tale- and -Troilus and Criseyde-. The study highlights the significance of the continuity of imagery in language and material culture for cultural transmission, providing insights into the relation between Chaucer s linguistic usage and the late medieval symbolic tradition. Undertaken within the Cognitive Linguistic framework, the research indicates the usefulness of adopting a panchronic perspective on the development of language and culture."

Contextuality in Translation and Interpreting: Selected Papers from the Lódź-Zhaw Duo Colloquium on Translation and Meaning 2020-2021
ISBN: 9783631869215 / Angielski / Twarda / 2022 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The papers compiled in the present volume reflect the key theme of the most recent Duo Colloquium sessions - contextuality. The psychological notion of context has been central to translation research for decades, and it has evolved along with the development of translational thought, translation types and tools. The theme of contextuality can be understood at any level, from the geopolitical to the textual, and embraced by both academic and professional considerations of translational and interpreting phenomena. It is centred on context, contexts and/or decontextualisation in translation and...
