Freudian Repression: Conversation Creating the Unconscious
ISBN: 9780521659567 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Freudian Repression presents an original reformulation of Freud's concept of repression, showing that in his theory of the unconscious he fails to examine how people actually repress shameful thoughts. Billig suggests that language is both expressive and repressive; he examines some of Freud's classic case histories and Freud's own life to show that even Freud himself can be seen to be repressing. Freud and Repression also offers new insights on the current debate about recovered memories and the ideological background to psychoanalysis, which will guarantee its interdisciplinary appeal.

ISBN: 9780521129107 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book examines the nature and operation of social thought and language as used in everyday life, and looks at social thinking through the complex patternings and functions of discourse. It is based on extensive empirical evidence about the language of contemporary racism and nationalism, drawn from the vast corpus of the discourse of Swiss racism gathered by the author from a variety of written and spoken sources. Three principal investigations, of sociocentrism, causality and the perception of time, are used to sinuate and define the nature and working of everyday speech and reasoning....

The Politics and Rhetoric of Commemoration: How the Portuguese Parliament Celebrates the 1974 Revolution
ISBN: 9781474297738 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In recent years there has been much interest in collective memory and commemoration. It is often assumed that when nations celebrate a historic day, they put aside the divisions of the present to recall the past in a spirit of unity. As Billig and Marinho show, this does not apply to the Portuguese parliament's annual celebration of 25 April 1974, the day when the dictatorship, established by Salazar and continued by Caetano, was finally overthrown. Most speakers at the ceremony say little about the actual events of the day itself; and in their speeches they continue with the partisan...
