ISBN: 9783631550885 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 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...

Understanding Tropes: At the Crossroads Between Pragmatics and Cognition
ISBN: 9783631592625 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book attempts to analyse irony, paradox, oxymoron, overstatement, understatement, euphemism, and dysphemism from the point of view of both Cognitive Linguistics and Pragmatics. In order to do so, we have regarded each trope as a cognitive model, and observed that the various ICMs that resulted from this approach had in common an essential feature: they were all constructed around the creation of contrasts. Also, we have developed a common processing model for these ICMs, which shows that these so-called figures of speech can be fully considered conceptual mechanisms of meaning creation...

Metaphor and Metonymy in Comparison and Contrast
ISBN: 9783110173741 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 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... 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 meto... |

Translating Tolkien: Philological Elements in the Lord of the Rings
ISBN: 9783631535172 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 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. In line with the well-known volume Cultural Models in Language and Thought by Holland and Quinn (1987), the volume shows that Cognitive Linguistics has further explored the idea that we think about social reality in terms of models - 'cognitive/cultural models' or 'folk theories'. As in cultural models, the present volume demonstrates that the technical apparatus...

The Public Lives of Ancient Women (500 Bce-650 Ce)
ISBN: 9789004533295 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Building on the important work by Emily A.
