ISBN: 9781433108327 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 169 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Can an author s preference for expressing modality be quantified and then used as a marker of attribution? This book explores the possibility of using the subjunctive mood as an indicator of style and a marker of authorship in Early Modern English texts. Using three works by the sixteenth-century biblical translator and polemicist, William Tyndale, Elizabeth Bell Canon establishes a predictable preference for certain types of modal expression. The theory of subjunctive use as a marker of attribution was then tested on the anonymous 1533 English translation of Erasmus Enchiridion Militis...

ISBN: 9780820452777 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The ninth-century Old Saxon Heliand gospel yields seminal sets of words for fate and the self that paint the cultural background into which Christianity was introduced.

Peirce s semiotic informs the linguistic analysis and promotes the ethnophilosophical description of the formation of belief, while the linguistic data inform the cultural analysis and substantiate the different...

Hoffmann, and Hermann Hesse. Moreover, throughout the...

Issues in Bilingualism and Biculturalism: A Hong Kong Case Study

It is mainly based on written data obtained from the local Chinese press collected systematically over a period of two years since late 1992. While previous studies on code-mixing between Cantonese and English in Hong Kong tend to emphasize sociolinguistic motivations, this book presents evidence that much of the code-mixing behaviour, be it in print or in speech, may be traced back to linguistic motivations at work resulting from sustained contact between Cantonese, modern...
