Poetic Conventions as Cognitive Fossils
ISBN: 9780190634681 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Poetic Conventions as Cognitive Fossils offers a major theoretical statement of where poetic conventions come from. The work comprises Reuven Tsur's research in cognitive poetics to show how conventional poetic styles originate from cognitive rather than cultural principles. The book contrasts two approaches to cultural conventions in general, and poetic conventions in particular. They include what may be called the "culture-begets-culture" or "influence-hunting" approach, and the "constraints-seeking" or "cognitive-fossils" approach here expounded. The former assumes that one...

What Makes Sound Patterns Expressive?: The Poetic Mode of Speech Perception
ISBN: 9780822311706 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Poets, academics, and those who simply speak a language are subject to mysterious intuitions about the perceptual qualities and emotional symbolism of the sounds of speech. Such intuitions are Reuven Tsur's point of departure in this investigation into the expressive effect of sound patterns, addressing questions of great concern for literary theorists and critics as well as for linguists and psychologists.
Research in recent decades has established two distinct types of aural perception: a nonspeech mode, in which the acoustic signals are received in the manner of musical sounds or...

Rivalry: In Business, Science, Among Nations
ISBN: 9780521385848 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Rivalry is an attempt to understand facets of entrepreneurial societies by integrating the economic analysis with historical, political and psychological considerations, customarily shunned by economists. The author argues that decisions to make new business ventures, and readiness to take risks are both related to concepts of ranking hierarchies on local, national or international levels. He then constructs a theory of business enterprise and of rivalry supported by evidence on entrepreneurship, innovation, advertising, all examined with their historical, political or organisational...

Legitimation and Integration in Developing Societies: The Case of India
ISBN: 9780367020149 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Though characterized by great human diversity and subject to economic constraints–typically disintegrative forces–Indian society has managed to function in a democratic manner through institutionalization of conflict among the myriad of competing ethnic, religious, and political factions. The author of this book maintains that the relative unity of Indian society can be explained by its unique pattern of integration, which allows conflicting forces to cooperate through mediatory institutions. Such institutions, he argues, link differing codes of behavior and equalize opposing groups,...

On the Shore of Nothingness: A Study in Cognitive Poetics
ISBN: 9781845401368 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book studies how poetic structure transforms verbal imitations of religious experience into concepts. The book investigates how such a conceptual language can convey such non-conceptual experiences as meditation, ecstasy or mystic insights. Briefly, it explores how the poet, by using words, can express the 'ineffable'. It submits to close reading English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Armenian and Hebrew texts, from the Bible, through medieval, renaissance, metaphysical, and baroque poetry, to romantic and symbolistic poetry.

Poetic Rhythm: Structure and Performance - An Empirical Study in Cognitive Poetics (Revised and Expanded Second Edition)
ISBN: 9781845195250 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This research is an instrumental investigation of a theory of rhythmical performance of poetry, originally propounded speculatively in the author s Perception-Oriented Theory of Metre (1977). Iambic pentameter means that there is a verse unit consisting of an unstressed and a stressed syllable (in this order), and that the verse line consists of five such units. In the first 165 verse lines of Paradise Lost there are two such lines. The theory takes up one of the central issues in metrical studies: all criteria for metricality hitherto proposed have been violated by the greatest masters of...

Changing Minds and Brains--The Legacy of Reuven Feuerstein: Higher Thinking and Cognition Through Mediated Learning
ISBN: 9780807756201 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Decades before educators began to draw teaching and learning implications from neuroscientists' groundbreaking findings on brain plasticiy, Reuven Feuerstein had already theorized it and developed practices for teaching and developing higher level cognition and learning for all students, even those with Down syndrome and other learning disabilities. His mediated learning, enrichment instruments, and dynamic assessment are used in urban districts in the United States and around the world to raise student achievement, success levels, and self-regulation. In this final work, Feuerstein provides...

Exchange Rate Policy and Interdependence: Perspectives from the Pacific Basin
ISBN: 9780521041232 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Over the past thirty years the Pacific Basin region has become more integrated with the rest of the world and played an increasingly important role in the world economy. While much has been written on Pacific Basin trade and economic growth, relatively few studies have been published on the conduct of exchange rate and monetary policies in the economies of the region. These papers should be of interest to readers with an interest in broadening their understanding of different exchange rate arrangements as well as those wishing to deepen their knowledge of Pacific Basin economies.
