Pragmatics of Translatn the
ISBN: 9781853594045 / Angielski / Miękka / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Pragmatics, often defined as the study of language use and language users, sets out to explain what people wish to achieve and how they go about achieving it in using language. Such a study is clearly of direct relevance to an understanding of translation and translators. The thirteen chapters in this volume show how translation skill, art, process and product is affected by pragmatic factors such as the acts performed by people when they use language, how writers try to be polite, relevant and cooperative, the distinctions they make between what their readers may already know and what is...

Landmark Essays: On Writing Across the Curriculum
ISBN: 9781880393093 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Rhetoric, as a general teaching -- while preaching locality of action and guidelines for handling that locality -- has tended from the beginning to serve as a universality. It has offered a generalized techne with only limited categories, appropriate for all discursive situations, at least for those that were not excluded from the realm of rhetoric. Nonetheless, from its beginnings, rhetoric limited its interests to certain activity fields such as law, government, religion, and most important, the educators of leaders in these activity fields. This collection presents landmarks showing where...

Explorations in Functional Syntax: A New Framework for Lexicogrammatical Analysis
ISBN: 9781904768005 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Explorations in Functional Syntax develops a practical framework for analyzing the syntactic structure of a text from a functional perspective. It outlines a model in which the syntactic analysis, on a single dimension, mirrors more explicitly the multidimensional meaning structure of the text. The syntactic framework thus takes account of semantic concepts such as participants and things, processes, features and qualities, and circumstances, all of which constitute elements of ideas. But it also deals with the cohesive links which connect ideas and with personal comments, etc. which may be...

Functional Dimensions of Ape-Human Discourse
ISBN: 9781904768050 / Angielski / Twarda / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Functional Dimensions of Ape-Human Discourse asks the question, 'What do interactions between apes and humans mediated by language tell us?'. In order to answer this question the authors explore language-in-context, drawing on a multi-leveled, multi-functional linguistics. The levels are context of culture, context of situation, semantics, lexicogrammar, and phonology; and the functions are ideational, interpersonal, and textual. Chapter 1 discusses a negotiation between the bonobo Kanzi and Sue Savage-Rumbaugh in terms of discourse-semantics, lexicogrammar, and the ideational and...

Narrative Formen der Sprachreflexion
ISBN: 9783110189254 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 557 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Die Interpretationen zu Geschichten uber Sprache aus drei Jahrtausenden zeigen, dass sich unser Denken und Wissen uber Sprache nicht nur begrifflich in Form von Theorien konkretisieren lasst, sondern auch narrativ in Form von Erzahlungen. Die narrative Objektivierungsweise hat gegenuber der begrifflichen ganz bestimmte Vorteile. Wir lernen die Sprache nicht in methodisch motivierten abstrakten Vereinfachungen kennen, sondern in konkreten kognitiven und kommunikativen Handlungszusammenhangen. Dadurch tritt sie fur uns als ein sehr komplexes Phanomen in Erscheinung, das nicht leicht auf...
