Word Derivation in Early Middle English
ISBN: 9783631583722 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 142 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. No comprehensive study of Early Middle English derivation has been published thus far. This book is an attempt to remedy the situation, at least to give a detailed analysis of one class of suffixes, i.e., seven suffixes forming abstract nouns. They are both of native (-dom, -s(c)hipe(e), -hod(e) and nes(se)) and French origin (-age, -(e)rie and -ment). The analysis includes the semantics of the suffixes both from a diachronic and a synchronic perspective as well as their productivity and dialect distribution. The study is data-oriented, hence...

In Search of Communication and Community: The Poetry of John Ashbery
ISBN: 9783631551226 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book is an attempt to offer a reading of the poet s uvre that will venture beyond indeterminacy and retrieve a human struggle inscribed in the poetry. The author proposes an eclectic approach that allows the reader to see Ashbery s poetry as part of a fascinating intellectual landscape. Departing from the work of such critics as Perloff, Bloom, and Altieri, the study structures lively transactions between poetry, literary criticism, art, and the work of philosophers: Stanley Cavell, Richard Rorty, Donald Davidson, and Ludwig Wittgenstein. Such background provides a theoretical platform...

Transcribing the Territory; Or, Rethinking Resistance: A Study in Classic American Fiction
ISBN: 9783631635407 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 281 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Inspired by Martin Heidegger s notion of being-in-the-world, this study presents a quasi-phenomenological close reading of Herman Melville s most famous novella Bartleby the Scrivener and Mark Twain s most famous novel Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. It is meant as a broad critique of both cultural and intellectual rhetoric of recalcitrance, estrangement and awayness that has long predominated within interpretations of American literature. The study refers selectively to the works of such classic authors as James F. Cooper, Washington Irving, R. W. Emerson, H. D. Thoreau, Walt...

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...

Beats-And-Binding Phonology
ISBN: 9783631396643 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The present monograph introduces a model of Beats-and-Binding phonology (B&B phonology), embedded in the epistemological framework of Natural Linguistics. B&B phonology operates with units called beats (B s) and relations called bindings. The syllable is epiphenomenal in the B&B approach to phonology and thus at most is a consequence of the operation of the B&B preferences. Universal phonotactic preferences follow directly from the binding preferences and unanimously refer to the Optimal Sonority Distance Principle. In order to demonstrate the explanatory potential of B&B phonology, a...

Language Contact in the History of English: 2 Nd, Revised Edition
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...

Language Therapy Space: Teaching English as a Foreign Language to the Visually Impaired
ISBN: 9783631668450 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 221 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Language can be seen as a therapeutic tool to the visually impaired. 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...

Betwixt «Engelaunde» and «Englene Londe»: Dialogic Poetics in Early English Religious Lyric
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...

Gender and the Formation of Modern Standard English: A Socio-Historical Corpus Study with Early Modern English in Focus
ISBN: 9783631549919 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The study examines the influence of gender on several long-term changes between 1500 and 1710 with an aim to assess the power of this variable in the formation of Present-Day Standard English. It projects the findings of contemporary sociolinguistics onto the history of English to check whether it was women, as some contemporary research might indicate, who were main trendsetters in the Early Modern English period and propagators of language innovations that have finally shaped the structure of Present-Day Standard English. The research builds a bridge between contemporary and historical...

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,...

Time Works Wonders: Selected Papers in Contrastive and Cognitive Linguistics
ISBN: 9783631638224 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 438 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The volume consists of reprints of papers originally published between 1967 and 2009, divided into two parts, only apparently devoted to two different areas of linguistics but in fact constituting a coherent whole. The -cognitive- part is an inevitable consequence of the -contrastive- part. In the first part such terms as -congruence-, -equivalence- and -tertium comparationis-, as well as fundamental principles of classical, structural contrastive studies are defined and implemented in actual contrastive analyses. In addition, the first outlines of contrastive generative grammar with its...

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 Non-Surviving Preterite-Present Verbs in English: The Demise of *Dugan, Munan, *-Nugan, *ÞUrfan, and Unnan
ISBN: 9783631729502 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Based on four historical corpora, the book is a comprehensive study of the demise of five preterite-present verbs in English. It offers a detailed description of their distribution in Old and Middle English. The subsequent comparison of the forms and uses of the preterite-presents in the two periods allows the author to suggest the reasons for their elimination from the language. The discussion focuses on phonological and morphological changes the verbs underwent as well as on the syntactic structures they appeared in. Yet, the study does not ignore factors of extra-linguistic nature such... Based on four historical corpora, the book is a comprehensive study of the demise of five preterite-present verbs in English.
