La Modernidad. Camino de Una Mentalidad Fragmentaria.
ISBN: 9783659029431 / Hiszpański / Miękka / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. La teoria de la fragmentacion mas que una teoria estetica en si es una manera de entender el mundo. Supone la consecuencia del replanteamiento del arte sobre si mismo, de la huida de la realidad externa, o si se prefiere, de la sustitucion de una realidad positivista por una realidad estetica mas flexible, autocritica y plural, capaz de albergar tantas visiones del mundo como sea posible. Desde el Romanticismo, pasando por el Simbolismo y el Modernismo Hispanoamericano, hasta los Movimientos de Vanguardia y el Modernismo Europeo la evolucion de estas visiones varia, pero en todos permanece un...

Towards Ennobling Absence
ISBN: 9783659202704 / Angielski / Miękka / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book uniquely shows the inseparable relationship between the philosophical question of the quest for a genuine self and the ongoing development of western tragedy which the author calls regressive progression. It positively evaluates the particular approach of the late modern tragic characters through the lens of the authors own cultural background, bringing some evidence from Persian mystic (Sufi) poetry which reflects the concept of rejoicing suffering, self-annihilation, and finally self-realization. This way, the so-called absurdity labeled for late modern and postmodern plays can...

Bilingualism: Advantage or Disadvantage?
ISBN: 9783659214240 / Angielski / Miękka / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It was once thought that learning two languages was detrimental to a childs cognitive abilities. This was due to the idea that the two languages were learned independently and the knowledge of learning one did not transfer into the other. It was thought that as more was learned in one language, less could be learned in the other. This gives the idea of there being a total amount of language acquisition, and so the pieces learned in each language together have to add up to this total. For this reason parents and teachers tried to force children to only learn one language instead of cultivating...

ISBN: 9783659174575 / Angielski / Miękka / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The present study analyzes culinary images in the selected writings of the three diasporic Indian writers settled in America, viz. Bharati Mukherjee, Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni and Jhumpa Lahiri. The selected works abound in food images and highlight the expatriate/immigrant experience in America. The central characters of almost all the texts are women who respond to immigration through cookery and food consumption. The immigrant life is beleaguered with dichotomies of inside-oustside, east-west and past-present and this study proves that these bipolarities are displayed and resolved through...

Exploring Second Language Development in Narrative Writing
ISBN: 9783659200052 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The present book addresses an issue that has been central in the research literature: the development of writing skills. Drawing on Systemic Functional Linguistics and Genre Theory, this phenomenon was investigated from a semantic perspective which means, in the first place, that writing is considered as a meaning-making process, and secondly, that development is viewed as a process during which students learning to write begin to make finer distinctions of meanings through the deployment of the lexico-grammatical and discourse resources of the second language. The focus is on the use the...

ISBN: 9783659231636 / Angielski / Miękka / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Teaching English Poetic Texts to Yemeni Undergraduates
ISBN: 9783659232626 / Angielski / Miękka / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Of all literary genres, poetry, with its linguistic and artistic unorthodoxy, is believed to contribute the least in the development of students linguistic competence. How do we introduce this unorthodox discourse into the rule-governed world of language learning? Mainstream poetry pedagogies have proved an inadequate option and so have traditional stylistic pedagogies. This book proposes an eclectic stylistic approach which synthesizes bottom-up with top-down approaches to text processing. The approach has two stages, the analysis and the pedagogy, which correspond to the two roles to be...

Family as Metaphor in the 20th Century American Drama
ISBN: 9783659284281 / Angielski / Miękka / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Arrival of Modernism in America is coincided with the emergence of American drama. American drama was virtually still born in the Nineteenth Century, partly because of reliance on European playwrights and partly because of the Puritan influence which did not allow it to grow. The American drama emerged with the secular and realistic society. Eugene O'Neill is supposed to be the fountain head of American drama who explored the personal theme that laid within the context of family life. Long Day's Journey Into Night, The Touch of the Poet and The Iceman Cometh are the plays that deal with...

A prototype model of task-based language assessment, the Integrative Task (IT) Model, was developed as an attempt to solve the longstanding problem of generalizing the language learners' performances on particular language tasks to their future performances on the tasks at similar levels of difficulty. In the IT Model, two psychological doctrines contributed in developing the IT Model in order to be operationally defined as the two-factor constructs underlying Integrative tasks: First, the core operations identified in the eight categories of Multiple Intelligences Theory (Gardner, 1983;...

Anxiety of Influence
ISBN: 9783659289774 / Angielski / Miękka / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The road to Eliot's "The Waste Land" seems to pass through Tennyson's "Camelot." The echoes of the "Lotos Eaters" are audible in the "Four Quartets" and the influence of "Maud" on "Prufrock" seems undeniable both in overall design and in verbal details. Even in his most Eliotic moments of ironic self-mockery "Prufrock" sounds like the narrator in "Maud." Eliot's indebtedness to "Maud" is also evident in "The Waste Land." There is more of Tennyson in Eliot's poetry than mere occasional phrasing. Eliot is strikingly Tennysonian not only in imagery but also in reanimating myth as a vehicle for...
