Szaleństwo w operze
ISBN: 9788379082568 / Polski / miękka ze skrzydełkami / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. „Teatr to dom wariatów, ale opera – to dopiero oddział dla nieuleczalnie chorych!”. Słowa, których autorem był rzekomo Hugo von Hofmannsthal, stały się dla Marcina Boguckiego inspiracją do napisania książki o motywie szaleństwa w operze od XVII do początku XX wieku. Jej główną część stanowią studia historyczne, w których autor prezentuje, jak motyw szaleństwa był w poszczególnych stuleciach opracowywany muzycznie. Aby zaznaczyć dzisiejszą perspektywę, Bogucki każdy z rozdziałów rozpoczyna od analizy współczesnego utworu nawiązującego do dzieła z epoki....

Chaucer's Choices: Through the Looking-Glass of Medieval Imagery
ISBN: 9783631663837 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 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."

Audiovisual Translation - Research and Use: 2nd Expanded Edition
ISBN: 9783631774496 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 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...

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...

Cognition in Context: New Insights Into Language, Culture and the Mind
ISBN: 9783631785584 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 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. 10-14 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...

A Conceptual Blending Theory of Humour: Selected British Comedy Productions in Focus
ISBN: 9783631659175 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 253 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The book presents an analysis of humour in a selection of British comedy productions. The conceptual integration theory devised by Gilles Fauconnier and Mark Turner, also known as blending, provides the tool for explaining the creation of humour in detail. It seems that blending can elaborate on the origin and cause of funniness, and, therefore, should be included as a linguistic theory of humour in the wide range of contemporary humour theories available. The backdrop against which any humour may be analysed is provided in this study by comparing and contrasting various humour...

Areas and Methods of Audiovisual Translation Research: Third Revised Edition
ISBN: 9783631788103 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 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. 10-14 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.

The Barbarians: Lost Civilizations
ISBN: 9781780237183 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: 20 dni roboczych We often think of the civilizations of ancient Greece and Rome as discrete incubators of Western culture, places where ideas about everything from government to art to philosophy were free to develop and then be distributed outward into the wider Mediterranean world. But as Peter Bogucki reminds us in this book, Greece and Rome did not develop in isolation. All around them were rural communities who had remarkably different cultures, ones few of us know anything about. Telling the stories of these nearly forgotten people, he offers a long-overdue enrichment of how we think about classical...

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. 10-14 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...
