Corpus Analysis for Descriptive and Pedagogical Purposes: ESP Perspectives
ISBN: 9783034315166 / Angielski / Miękka / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There is hardly any aspect of verbal communication that has not been investigated using the analytical tools developed by corpus linguists. This is especially true in the case of English, which commands a vast international research community, and corpora are becoming increasingly specialised, as they account for areas of language use shaped by specific sociolectal (register, genre, variety) and speaker (gender, profession, status) variables.
Corpus analysis is driven by a common interest in linguistic evidence, viewed as a source of insights into language phenomena or of lexical,... There is hardly any aspect of verbal communication that has not been investigated using the analytical tools developed by corpus linguists. This is es...

The Locals; Identity, Place and Belonging in Australia and Beyond
ISBN: 9783034301541 / Angielski / Miękka / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book presents the first comprehensive survey of being a local, in particular in Australia. As in much of the colonised, English-speaking world, in Australia the paradox is that the locals are not indigenous peoples but migrants with a specific ethnic heritage who became localised in time to label other migrants as the newcomers and outsiders. Claims of belonging as local provide a crucial insight into power relations that extend beyond the local level to questions of national identity and the ethics of belonging in a postcolonial, multicultural nation. How have Anglo-Celtic Australians...

Elements of Hermeneutic Pragmatics: Agency and Interpretation
ISBN: 9783034318839 / Angielski / Miękka / 211 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Using a hermeneutic approach to pragmatics, this book seeks to bring pragmatics closer to the cognitive paradigm that has transformed the other branches of the linguistic and communication sciences, with the help of developments in certain neighbouring disciplines such as philosophy, sociology and narratology....
