A Psychoanalytic Interpretation of Dambudzo Marechera`s Selected Works

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This project analyses three works of art namely House of Hunger, The Black Insider and Mindblast by one of Zimbabwe`s most famous, talented and controversial authors, Dambudzo Marechera, using mainly psychoanalytic tools of inquiry. The above works of fiction have been carefully chosen to sample the writer`s skills and concerns as a poet, playwright and novelist extraordinaire. These works, which were written between 1978 and 1984, give a fair representation of the said author`s vast and varied skills whose works according to one critic `read a little like a clever dissertation for a PhD` (cited in Veit-Wild, 1992:17) yet he never completed a first degree! ····· 10361134225

Task-based instruction(TBI) and form-focused instruction(FFI) are believed to be different in the interaction they lead to.In TBI and FFI the occurrence of interaction process characteristics ( Display questions, form-based feedback, teacher-regulated turn taking, and explicit error correction) were analyzed among thirty eight learners being taught by two different methods of instruction. the aim was to find the effect of these two pedagogies on teacher-student interaction. The data was collected and analyzed by descriptive and referential statistics. It was found out that teacher-student interaction was more more in TBI. Meanwhile, the occurrence of the interaction process characteristics were more frequent in FFI. The findings are considered to have certain implications for EFL pedagogies. ····· 10361134148

Realist Texts and Texts of Implied Sense

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
There have been many books published which have been devoted to the interface of language and literary studies. This book is presentation of the `hermeneutic turn` in literary reading and analysis. The book includes a detailed investigation of literary texts by a wide range of authors including H. James, J.D. Salinger, F.S. Fitzgerald, K. Ishiguro, B. Malamud. Traditionally it has been assumed that in order to describe a phenomenon it is necessary to identify its antipode, that is why in the book realists texts (cathartic, texts of fortified style, texts of the primary style) are juxtaposed to texts of implied sense, i.e. texts of the secondary style. Realist texts are characterized by melodization, reminiscences about sacred and folklore texts. It is precisely the metatext that epitomizes the most vivid characteristic feature of texts of implied sense. The metatext is a narration within another narration. It is a text dominated by various forms of alienation or estrangement. The metatext can emerge in any area of the text. However, generally, it is set off or triggered by an inherent contradiction (antinomy that brings about phenomena of neutralization). ····· 10361133998

Investigating Terminology Management for Conference Interpreters

····· lezzter Preis 44.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Despite recent developments in translation technologies, most existing software programs are designed primarily to cater to the needs of language professionals such as translators and terminologists, while conference interpreters are neglected as a user group with a distinct work profile. Hence, this book investigates terminology management in the context of interpreting. A review of literature on interpreting and terminology is complemented by a survey conducted among professional interpreters, in order to identify their terminology management needs and practices and evaluate their experience using computers. Generic guidelines based on survey data are suggested for developing a terminology tool for interpreters, and are implemented in a basic demonstration of the use of database management software (DBMS) in this context. ····· 10361133912

Language Proficiency and Pre-Reading Activities: Any Connection?

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Reading is often referred to as the most important of the four language skills for EFL learners, as it enables students to gain exposure to the target language and receive valuable linguistic input to build up language proficiency. One of the main means of facilitating comprehension in reading classes is through the use of appropriately designed pre-reading activities. Two main lines of investigation were pursued in this study: the first relates to the relative effectiveness of the different pre-reading formats, and the second to the possibility of an interaction between pre-reading format and L2 proficiency level. The pedagogical implications of this study could help teachers how to get the maximum benefit of reading instruction. ····· 10361133873

This book focuses on the importance of top-down approach to teaching reading. In most reading textbooks the authors are interested in using post reading activities which are more useful for testing rather than teaching reading comprehension. Meanwhile concerning the role of background knowledge this book suggests schema theory based pre reading tasks as more effective means for activating background knowledge and enhancing reading comprehension. ····· 10361133839

Task-induced Involvement and Incidental Vocabulary Learning

Involvement Load Hypothesis is a motivational-cognitive construct consisting of three components: need, search and evaluation. Each of them may be present or absent in the process of vocabulary learning in a natural or artificially designed task. The degree of involvement is characterized by different combinations of these factors.Task-Induced Involvement is the extension of Involvement Load Hypothesis into language teaching and research context especially for the purpose of vocabulary learning studies in such a way that the tasks with higher degree of involvement lead to learning words with higher degree of retention. ····· 10361132410

Who am i?

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
`Who am I ` is a question that most of us ask ourselves with considerable regularity, but when asked by 20th-century South Africans it has a particular urgency and complexity. The topic draws on a wide range of intellectual (re)sources in order to define autobiographical writing and selfhood in an African context. The study examines the impact of history, racial politics and language on the formation of identity, but also looks into the influence of traditional African modes such as praise poetry in the expression of selfhood, whether for an individual or the group. in the process, the work of theorists such as Stuart Hall Sidonie Smith and Paul de Man all contribute to a lively discussion of what constitutes autobiography and how we define the relationship between the historically lived life and the self inscribed in writings such as prison diaries, memoirs and autobiographical novels. The overriding impression of this book is its passionate engagement with the texts and issues of a painful era in South Africa`s history. The title `who am i ` comes from a poem by Mongane Serote which gives voice to the agonies faced by the many writers under discussion. ····· 10361132176

Project-Based Learning in Teaching English

····· lezzter Preis 53.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The basic notion lying behind education has tended to change recently due to the rapid changes in linguistics and theories of learning. It is noticeable that every language teaching method contains some effective classroom techniques. Recent methods and techniques used for language learning and teaching stress the importance of equipping learners with appropriate tools. Educators are much more interested in finding ways to help learners to open their minds in order to acquire learning strategies that create opportunities they will use for learning throughout their life. The project-based learning is one of the contemporary methods to language teaching/learning which has developed under the influence of constructivism to help learners learn processes of effective learning through gaining necessary skills. This book is an invaluable resource concerning learning to learn and it is directed to curriculum developers and materials design and teachers who help students gain life-long learning skills that they can use throughout their life. ····· 10361132040

Role of English and Negligible and Marginal Role of Indian Languages

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The social change which India has undergone in the post-war era is much more impressive than that in the economic sphere. A very traditional society is in the process of being modernized , or what is probably more correct, westernized. The pace of change is not uniform in the different facets of social life. Again, urban life has witnessed far greater change than rural life. The totality of change is truly revolutionary. (Kar: 2005). The transformation of the Indian society that has been taking place is a very gradual one though a marked one. The new and the old exist side by side, in varying proportions. There is a marked eagerness to take to new ways of living but at the same time a general reluctance to give up old attitudes, customs and practices. Probably this constitutes both strength and weakness of the Indian society. (Charnay: 1981). The relativized and pluralized western culture further evokes a perception of the West as being tolerant and the Rest as intolerant and fundamentally dogmatic. ····· 10361131885

Blasphemy

Blasphemy, the first collection of poetry from Jerry Godown, was originally created and presented as his senior thesis at Eckerd College. A brave presentation of considerations and ruminations on lust, greed, avarice and heartlessness from the standpoint of an average Joe trying to make his way through the complications and deviations of life. From the perspective of a voyeur, witness as the poet explores and embraces taboos, debauchery, desperation and yes, even God, or the seeming absence thereof. ····· 10361119748

Accounting for the indefinite relative marker in Arabic dialects

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
According to the grammars of Arabic dialects the relative marker illi only occurs following a definite head noun. However, based on data from Brustad (2000), the relative marker illi is also found to occur following an indefinite head noun in Egyptian, Moroccan, Syrian, and Kuwaiti Arabic. This innovation has been accounted for in terms of the semantics of individuation I suggest that this account is relatively problematic and, sometimes, ad-hoc. Basically, I propose that a solution based on the hierarchy of individuation does not work. I further argue that there are two phonologically identical but syntactically different illis: the first one generates for definiteness, and the other is only created by overgeneralized analogy. ····· 10361119633

Hell or Inferno?

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This book examines Dante`s most influential work and its translation into English. It takes a look at certain features and common characteristics in his writing. There is also a brief outline of the Commedia`s journey from Italy to England and America in order to understand the interest of English translators in Dante`s work and the reason for the multiple translations that exist of his main work. In this study, I try to examine the truth behind the assertion that poetry is untranslatable. Thus, four of the most significant English translations were chosen in order to analyse the success of these translations as poetic works. The translators in question are: Henry Francis Cary Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Dorothy Sayers and Mark Musa. With such a comparative analysis, this book spans the last two hundred years of translation, and thus brings out the latest issues in the translational field. This study is restricted to a number of crucial cantos which will serve as specimen to the whole poem. ····· 10361119565

ABSURDITY AND FAILURE in An AMERICAN TRAGEDY and Mc TEAGUE

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The connection between the grotesque and American success dream is most striking in the twentieth century, for by then , America had become an urban industrial nation, the dehumanizing effects of the capitalist economy have become pervasive and institutionalized, immigration and individualism have shaken up the entire social structure of the country. Success has changed to the point where it is inseparable from the acquisition of wealth. Norris and Dreiser basically tell the essence of the sinister dehumanizing process brought on by the reach for the sublime. A warm, boundless human sympathy a tremendous vital lust for life with a conviction that man is the end and measure of all things in a world which is nevertheless without purpose or standards moral ethical, and religious agnosticism contact with the scientific thought of the late nineteenth century which emphasized the power and scope of mechanical laws over human desires belief in a chemical mechanistic explanation of the human machine plus a constant yearning for faith these are the elements which Norris and Dreiser brought to the writing of their novels. ····· 10361119515

Dynamic assessment of EFL grammar

für 49.00€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
An integral requirement of any educational program is the chance to evaluate the effectiveness of the delivery of education. Traditionally evaluative tools of various sorts have been used to measure the process and product of teaching. More recently however as far as English as a second/foreign language is concerned more innovative alternative assessment procedures have been practiced for decades. The problem however with all such assessment techniques has been that they have been static in nature in that they have been meant to measure the product rather than the process of education. Dynamic assessment, which views assessment as an integrated part of teaching rather than as its final loop, has accordingly been proposed as an alternative and complement to static or standardized types of assessment. The focus of this book is on the viability of using dynamic as an instructional adjunct in the development of EFL learners` grammar. The audience of the book includes assessment experts, ELT professionals and SLA researchers. ····· 10361119453

Deconstructing Traditional Notions in Translation Studies

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The goal of this book is to review the traditional concepts of theory and practice, as well as the concept of history, as have been applied to translation training and translation studies in general. Therefore, postmodern approaches have been applied to deconstruct the theory/practice binary opposition in order to show the impossibility of claiming that there is a rift between these concepts. Also, the definition of deconstructive history has been used to show that all historical work includes interpretative narratives that are influenced by the historian`s construction and ideology, and that there can never be a definitive historical rendition of any event. Finally, two exemplary cases are challenged to back the theoretical claims made in this book, which are: prescriptive translation training, and the history of the Toledo Translation School . ····· 10361119387

Thematic Concerns in the Novels of Bapsi Sidhwa

für 61.20€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Bapsi Sidhwa has emerged as Pakistan`s most prominent English fiction writer. Beginning her career in Pakistan at a time when there were few women writers, Sidhwa gradually established her credentials in her native land and also received international acclaim winning several national and international awards. The five internationally acclaimed novels chronicle the history of the Indian subcontinent, with particular focus on the lives of women. She has published many articles, reviews, essays and short-stories besides her five novels. This study, however, confines itself to the critical analysis of her novels only. There are a number of articles published on her individual novels or particular traits or character in different journals or in edited books but the present study, to the best of my knowledge is the first endeavor to examine the thematic concerns of her novels in detail and correlate them by drawing together the common strands of their narratives. It seeks to ponder deeper into the interiors of life portrayed in her novels. I hope it also serves as a literary itinerary to future fans of Bapsi Sidhwa. ····· 10361119353

The Invisible Dance

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Various representations of the figure of Salomé and the Biblical legend were produced in European, specifically in English literature and arts throughout the nineteenth century. Oscar Wilde`s 1891 dramatic version of the legend in many ways epitomizes the full potential of the legend and capitalizes on the period`s fascination with the Orient. The climactic moment of the play, the Dance of the Seven Veils, offers a unique reflection on European understanding of the harem and invites a comparison to Ottoman representations of this same cultural space. This book analyzes the relation between the Dance of the Seven Veils, and the figure of dancing woman in the harem of the Ottoman Empire. It is the slippage between the two which has informed various representations of the Oriental female figure in the West. The gap that emerges between the Western representations and the real practices in the harem, allows for a focused critique of Orientalist practices while recovering, in some ways, the actual experience of Muslim women. This book offers new insights to the Ottoman harem women through the figure of Salomé and questions previously established assumptions. ····· 10361119130

A Citation Analysis of MLIS Dissertations

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Many academic libraries attempt to source their collections from all the publications available. However, librarians may fail in this attempt because of some economic factors that prevent them from building a comprehensive collection of materials. The increasing price of periodicals and books and the unchanged budget for inter-library loan have precluded librarians from providing their best reference service to users. This study makes a contribution in topping a list of core journals cited in Library and Information Science (LIS) dissertations. A core list is helpful for students to use as a guide when they carry out a literature review. The aim is to identify the characteristics of cited literature in Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) dissertations submitted to University of Malaya. This includes finding out the various type of information resources used in research projects as well as other main variables, such as: language distribution of cited documents, publication frequency, authorship patterns, country of publishing, subject areas, chronological distribution of total citation, core journal titles used in the field of LIS, etc. ····· 10361119114

The Wolf in Children`s Literature

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The perception of the wolf in children`s literature has changed in the last generation from one that is essentially negative to a much more positive view. The late twentieth century values of heritage, preserving the environment and political correctness, among others, have transformed the wolf from a stereotypical villain, uncomplicatedly evil with evil intentions, into a misunderstood, if not actually heroic figure. The classic Halliwell rendition of The Three Little Pigs , with the wolf eating two pigs and only defeated from eating the third by its superiority of intelligence, has become Scieszka`s version of a miscarriage of justice with the wolf as the victim, and Trivizas`s story of wolves as heroes persecuted by the big bad pig. The wolf that for centuries was notorious for eating Red Riding Hood and her grandmother is now educated, socially aware, helps little boys pick wild strawberries and attends the Ballet. The hypothesis is supported by a survey of primary school children, which demonstrates an essentially sympathetic attitude to wolves. ····· 10361119071
