ISBN: 9783631550885 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The last two decades have alerted applied linguists and their bureaucratic counterparts those who make or advise government on language policy to the issue of dealing with language problems in an accountable fashion. Why do these problems seem so intractable? How is it that these problems have not yet satisfactorily been solved? What is it that continues to drive the interest in this? To the scholars from many parts of the world who have been invited to discuss this anew in the proposed volume, it was evident that language planners, policy makers and language managers do not know just how...

Translating Tolkien: Philological Elements in the Lord of the Rings
ISBN: 9783631535172 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The literary works of J. R. R. Tolkien, especially The Lord of the Rings, are marked by their author s professional interest in the history of English. This study shows how philological features such as nomenclature, archaism and echoes of Old English poetic forms have been reflected in a selection of published translations into Germanic and Romance languages. It demonstrates how current translation theory based on a hermeneutic approach can explain translators compensation techniques such as the use of analogous historical resources in the target languages, and how these can preserve...

Cognitive Models in Language and Thought: Ideology, Metaphors and Meanings
ISBN: 9783110177923 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 445 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The volume offers a number of representative papers on cognitive models that are invoked when people deal with questions of social identity, political and economic manipulation, and more general issues such as the genomic discourse.

Metaphor and Metonymy in Comparison and Contrast
ISBN: 9783110173734 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 616 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The book elaborates one of Roman Jakobson's many brilliant ideas, i.e. his insight that the two cognitive strategies of the metaphoric and the metonymic are the end-points on a continuum of conceptualization processes. This elaboration is achieved on the background of Lakoff and Johnson's twodomain approach, i.e. the mapping of a source onto a target domain of conceptualization. Further approaches dwell on different stretches of this metaphor-metonymy continuum. Still other papers probe into the specialized conceptual division of labor associated with both modes of thought. Two new...
