Aspects of the Grammar of Focus: A Minimalist View
ISBN: 9783631579558 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 396 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The book examines the aspects of focus within the recent minimalist paradigm. Focus is viewed here as a grammar s response to the requirements of the systems external to (narrowly defined) language. Thus, the properties of focus are explored at the two interfaces: syntax-phonology and syntax-semantics. The book surveys some recent views on the interface and left-periphery status of focus. With respect to the semantics of focus, the book argues for its tripartite division into: information, non-exhaustive identification, and exhaustive identification. It further contains a proposal of the...

Scribes, Printers, and the Accidentals of Their Texts
ISBN: 9783631607121 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The essays in this collection demonstrate that much can be learned from studying features such as word-division, printer s type, and spelling conventions. These features termed -accidentals- by W. W. Greg typically receive little attention when editors discuss how a text became actualized in a particular medieval manuscript or early modern print. To study these features, it is essential to consider a text in the context of the manuscript or print housing it, rather than a modern edition. The texts discussed range in genre from religious (AElfric s Letter to Sigeweard, and the...

The author explores the psycho-linguistic therapy Touching the World which is rooted within two areas. The mental one pivots on emotional openness and balance, gained through the sandtray therapy, controlled breathing practice, the Brain Linkage Method, and the edu-kinaesthetic area. The linguistic layer offers a two-pathed differentiation. Lexical and grammar fields are taught through the Re-charged Direct Method, enriched with sand and water experiments, based on tactile-audible perception. The author's suggestions to...

The Pragmatics of Modals in Shakespeare
ISBN: 9783631594001 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 281 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Modals and related phenomena are without doubt one of the most complicated issues in the grammar of language. This study provides a reappraisal of the modals in Shakespeare s language from the pragmatic viewpoint, both micropragmatic and macropragmatic. The material selected for analysis are modals SHALL, SHOULD, WILL, WOULD, and their contracted forms. Micropragmatic aspects such as speech acts seem relatively easily accessible to historical researchers; however, this study moves further into the macropragmatic dimensions of language use than the earlier ones and covers politeness, dialogue,...

Language and Meaning; Cognitive and Functional Perspectives
ISBN: 9783631561584 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The collection of papers addresses the perennial problem of the relation between language and meaning. It proposes various theoretical approaches to the issue ranging from a synergetic theory of meaning merging the cognitive and the socio-historical perspectives, through holistic, evolutionary models and a revision of some of the assumptions of Cognitive Metaphor Theory to the discussion of the role of pragmatic competence in meaning construction. A number of papers make recourse to corpus based studies and psycholinguistic experiments. The topics of specific linguistic investigations cover...

Translating Anthroponyms: Exemplified by Selected Works of English Children's Literature in Their Polish Versions
ISBN: 9783631630983 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 262 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The subject of the present book are literary anthroponyms and their translation. The examples, taken from English children s literature of the Victorian and Edwardian period, show that literary names are usually motivated and linked to their bearers, therefore it is necessary to investigate them in terms of their meaning, functions and role as narrative elements. The study focuses on how anthroponyms function in the context of the narrative, situation and culture, and shows similarities and differences between the name systems of the original and the translation. Also, it gives an overview of...

Estuary English?: A Sociophonetic Study of Teenage Speech in the Home Counties
ISBN: 9783631393406 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 187 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book discusses the phonetic make-up of the teenage speech in the Home Counties in order to verify the status of a putative new variety referred to as -Estuary English-. The study compares the findings of a field research carried out by the author in the vicinity of London in 1998/1999 with the data from the Survey of English Dialects obtained half a century earlier. The results of the research show that -Estuary English- should be viewed as a number of distinct accents with some influences of London speech, not a single and definable variety."

ISBN: 9783631535752 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The Ancrene Wisse is perhaps the most notable monument of Middle English prose, its influence evident from the time of its composition in the early thirteenth century until at least the Reformation. As the only Early Middle English work of considerable length to survive in more than two copies, it is a unique resource for the study of textual variation according to dialect, date, milieu and stylistic preferences. This edition presents four versions those of the early Corpus, Cleopatra and Nero manuscripts, and the late and substantially modernised version of the Vernon manuscript. To...

Form-Focused Instruction and the Advanced Language Learner: On the Importance of the Semantics of Grammar
ISBN: 9783631607497 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Form-Focused Instruction and the Advanced Language Learner looks at the role of FFI at higher levels of foreign language learning. It argues that contrary to a common belief there are aspects of grammar to be taught to the proficient FL user. While such a learner may be familiar with formal properties of different structures, (s)he still needs to focus on the semantics of target language grammar. Considering this, the book investigates the efficiency of a FFI treatment called Organic Approach Deductivised or 3-D language pedagogy, devised to teach the semantics of the...

The Old English Riddles and the Riddlic Elements of Old English Poetry
ISBN: 9783631523599 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The art of posing riddles is possibly as old as mankind and spans two apparent extremes which, nevertheless, converge in the riddlic form: that of wisdom and that of play. With this perspective in mind, the author examines the poetic enigmas present in the culture of Anglo-Saxon England, exploring both the Anglo-Latin riddles of Aldhelm and those recorded in the Exeter Book. His study investigates the Old English riddlic texts from a variety of angles, arguing for the possibility of establishing patterns of Anglo-Saxon riddlic composition as such. Rafal Boryslawski intends to prove that both...
