ISBN: 9783631504482 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 410 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. More than any other European language English has been shaped by its contacts with other languages such as Celtic, Latin, Scandinavian and French. This is true not only of the vocabulary, but also of morphology and even phonology and syntax. But also the contact between different varieties of English played an important role, especially in the shaping of the Englishes outside England. The papers contained in this volume deal with such contacts from various points of views. Major topics are: the restructuring of lexical fields by borrowing processes in Old, Middle and Early Modern English, the...

ISBN: 9783631616956 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This study explores the somewhat neglected area of dramatic genres of early English religious lyric and illuminates the functions of dialogue as an instrument of devotion and cognition in the context of medieval culture. The book focuses on short poems in dialogue form, semi-dialogic prayers and dramatic monologues, and alleged dialogic configurations of the lyrics, stressing their potential for performance. Devotional dialogues, as between Jesus and Mary, are shown to have the form of mutual begging, in accordance with the central medieval ritual of supplication. Dialogue as heteroglossia...

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,...

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...

Change in Life, Change in Language: A Semantic Approach to the History of English
ISBN: 9783631634530 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 145 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book provides the reader with a description of the semantic change that took place over two periods of the history of English language: Middle English and Early Modern English. In view of the fact that semantic change is the type of change by which the relationship between language and society can be traced best, notes on the socio-historical background of the period have been included. They are followed by the analysis of language change in general in which some of the literature on the topic is reviewed and the author s interpretation of change as being caused by external factors is...

«Will You Tell Me «Any Thing» about Yourself?»: Co-Memorative Essays on Herman Melville's «Bartleby the Scrivener»
ISBN: 9783631587058 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. There is no record of anything Herman Melville (1819 1891) may have thought or said about -Bartleby the Scrivener. A Story of Wall-Street-, his single most famous tale, published just over 150 years ago today. It is actually for a whole gamut of reasons that the text is unlikely to ever yield an interpretive consensus gentium, the insights of such magisterial figures as F.O. Matthiessen, Ralph Ellison, Jacques Derrida, Giorgio Agamben, or Slavoj i ek notwithstanding. The volume adds to the nearly global Bartleby Industry with contributions by Andrzej Kopcewicz (Poznan), Joseph Kuhn (Poznan),...

Language Contact and Vocabulary Enrichment: Scandinavian Elements in Middle English
ISBN: 9783631624142 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 173 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The Scandinavian presence all over Europe during the so-called Viking Age is well documented and England is not an exception. However, the influence of their language on the development of English has not always been well interpreted. This volume aims at deciphering the reality behind the legend of a raiding heathen nation. By resorting to the evidence provided by language, the book explores and tries to reconstruct the social networks formed by both the English and Scandinavians. Their relations, needs and lives are inextricably intermingled with the hybrid tongue they adapted for...

The Beginnings of Standardization: Language and Culture in Fourteenth-Century England
ISBN: 9783631551066 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Developing a written standard is one of the most fundamental institutional achievements of a society. On the threshold to the Modern Era the vernaculars massively gained ground in writing throughout Western Europe. They soon underwent regularization and eventually standardization. In England, however, the situation was quite different from that of the continent: well into the 14th century the literate space was filled mainly by Latin and French. For a long time Chaucer has been regarded as having brought about the victory of English. But recent research calls for a broader perspective...

The Thematic Structure of the Sentence in English and Polish: Sentence Stress and Word Order
ISBN: 9783631635322 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The initial aim of the book was to describe Polish equivalents of the English articles. The functions of the articles were found in Polish to be expressed by word order and sentence stress (in neutral intonation). Word order and sentence stress were also analysed in English in view of the different nature of word order. Native speakers were asked to read given texts, which were recorded, and to comment on the intonation. The author concludes that the functions of the articles are part of Functional Sentence Perspective (FSP) and that the general tendency is to put new information in final...

Non-European Women in Chaucer: A Postcolonial Study
ISBN: 9783631550571 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Since Jeffrey Jerome Cohen edited The Postcolonial Middle Ages in 2000, some scholars have applied postcolonial criticism to the study of the Middle Ages. However, even in postcolonial studies of Chaucer, the role of non-European women in his work has not yet been fully discussed. Using postcolonial theory, the author explores how Chaucer represents non-European women, his Others both in gender and in culture. Her examination of non-European women in his work from a non-Westerner s point of view reveals that his representation is complicated and ambivalent, showing diverse views. The...

L Vocalisation (milk miuk]) originated in London a century ago and contributes to the linguistic phenomenon of -Dialect Levelling-. This study investigates L Vocalisation in the speech of the middle classes and reveals its widespread acceptance. The social factors Age and Gender are significant: young male adults are in the lead. L Vocalisation prevails in the speech of people in the South of England with regional links to urban areas. Back vowels encourage this process, whilst front vowels still hinder it. Thus, bulb is more likely to be pronounced as bAub] than...
