It is widely thought that the language of banking and finance in Arabic, LBFA for short, is linear or in other words filled with rigid figures, strict terms, and direct speech. The aim of the present thesis is to explore the distinctive features of LBFA from a pragma-syntactic perspective. Light is shed, too, on the communicative functions of the genres employed in this language. ····· 1036187371

In this book dance writing is analysed through empirical data generated by a corpus of written dance texts. Lexical patterns, conceptual metaphor, and an ontological hierarchy are discussed in context within the discipline of Dance. Findings are tested through empirical data generated by a case study of one choreographer, Bill T. Jones, and from a corpus of texts about Jones` work, Still/Here (1994). Data generated from descriptive and interpretive analyses of Still/Here with a consideration of the work as autobiographical narrative provides a basis for a discussion of the shift in context from the dance work to a review written by one critic, Arlene Croce, and the privileging of interpretation over description in dance writing. ····· 1036187201

The objectives are: a) examine and identify the language of humor in radio advertisements. b) investigate and distinguish the different linguistics techniques in radio advertisements. This study seeks to examine how humor is exploited linguistically to enhance the radio advertisements effectiveness in reaching its target audience. In the analysis it was found that, various linguistics techniques were employed to create humor in radio advertisements such as the violation of Grice Cooperative Maxims and Implicatures, repetition, figure of speech, condensation, word play, punning, and Malaysian English. Other linguistics techniques were also discovered that were not covered in the theoretical framework such as aposiopesis, Shakespearean and Chinese opera. The language of humor is important in the world of advertising. Thus, a research on the language of humor in radio advertisement will reveal how the language of humor can be exploited for advertising. The field of linguistics is rich with infinite phoneme, morpheme, syntax and lexis for advertisements writers to create a distinguished advertising piece. ····· 1036187133

Inspired by her one year`s stay in Scotland, the author became interested in Sir Walter Scott and his achievement of inventing a romantic and attractive Scotland by putting local history, Gaelic folklores, and natural scenes in his novels. The book examines the picturesque aesthetics used by Scott in his first novel Waverley (1814) and reveals the paradoxical nature and politics of the time from Scott`s representation of Scotland. Scott creates a representative image for the `nation` of Scotland, but this national identity continuingly waivers between romance and history as well as imagination and reality. ····· 1036187108

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray This book is about the possible distinctions between Shakespeare s Hamlet and Sumarokov s Gamlet, with the higher focus on the formal aspects of the texts that could be easily located, extracted, quantified, computerized, and, at the same time, could contribute towards identifying the authors intentions, especially relating to the structural and lexical organisation of both plays. The research reported here adopts an original multi-pronged approach including quantitative, qualitative and comparative analyses. Key findings shed light on substantial divergences between Shakespeare and Sumarokov s perceptions of the main and secondary characters, of the complexity of their relationships as well as provide evidence to striking diversions between the playwrights religious, socio-political, family, moral, philosophical and artistic conceptual frameworks. This work should not only benefit research on corpus linguistics with respect to literary texts but also be of interest more generally to scholars of translation and comparative literature, deepening our understanding of translation and literary processes. ····· 1036187078

The two selected examples focused upon in this work, Huda Barakat and Ahdaf Soueif are ones of the most representative Arab women authors who have reached an important success and have gained wide readerships, in the Arab world and in the West. The choice of (The Stone of Laughter) and The Map of Love was not done at random, but simply because these two novels represent a very strong tool of argumentation to back up our hypothesis, i.e. that the Arab Women writers have a specific literary creativity and a peculiar rebellion that conserve their belonging both to the Arab culture and to the female gender. ····· 1036186977
für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray The book is a critique of what in most linguistic and pragmatic theories is treated as explicit (as against implicit) communication. The critique is from the perspective of Burton-Robert s Representational Hypothesis. Two conflicting theories of the explicit-implicit distinction are discussed and found inadequate. These are Grice s theory of conversation and Sperber and Wilson s Relevance Theory. It is argued that neither Grice nor relevance theory succeeds in showing that an explicit-implicit distinction is empirically defensible or theoretically sustainable. It is argued that the very notion of explicit communication rests on conventional assumptions inherited from generative linguistic theory, particularly Chomskyan linguistic theory. The Representational Hypothesis is presented as an alternative. An account of meaning, which follows from the Representational Hypothesis, is defended. By way of illustration, the book then draws together a range of issues, problems, and questions arising within the generative paradigm. These are approached through the problems of nonsentential speech and ellipsis. ····· 1036186956

This study found similarities and differences between the selected Chinese research article introductions and Swales`s CARS (Create a Research Space) model. Chinese research article introductions fit the CARS model in terms of the global organisation. However, both Chinese research article introductions and Swales`s CARS model have subtle rhetorical differences. This study attributes the rhetorical similarities to the influence of English as an international language on publications in China. It ascribes the rhetorical differences partially to membership of a specific discourse community but mainly to potential cultural influences.

Applied to language, this biased representation of the sexes concerns the portrayal of men as the norm and women as the appendage or as the exception in language. This book analyzed sexism in the English language from three angles: morphology, syntax, semantics, aiming at foregrounding those hidden differences in the representation and treatment of women and men in language, because the differences are so prevalent within the society that they appear to be normal and commonsense to people. The book also traced the reasons for the occurrence of sexism in English from the historical, social and cultural perspectives because language is a form of social practice and oppression and sexism are phenomena of society. The aim of this book is to help people become aware that English is changing as society changes that we have choices to make, and that these choices have important consequences. ····· 1036186615

With these words Howard Philips Lovecraft begins The Supernatural Horror in Literature . I contend that the importance Lovecraft attaches to the unknown in this critical essay on horror fiction or weird fiction, as Lovecraft termed it is reflected in his own works, as well. This thesis shows that the unknown actually forms the core of a narrative technique which we can identify in most of Lovecraft s works. Through close readings of three of his most famous texts, The Call of Cthulhu , The Shadow over Innsmouth and The Case of Charles Dexter Ward , this thesis analyzes the central role that unknowns play in them. It highlights how unknowns are created, maintained and resolved in the course of the narrative. The analyses also show how these unknowns affect the narrative flow and how the reader is affected by their presence. Ultimately, this thesis describes a narrative technique or model which is centered on the unknown and which is commonly found in Lovecraft s texts. ····· 1036186545

Denn auch wenn einige Lebensjahre und Eckdaten im Verborgenen bleiben, sagt Shakespeares Werk um so mehr über seine Person aus. Sein Spiel um Äquivalente, seine beeindruckende Wortkunst und die stilistische Vielfältigkeit zeugen von einer faszinierenden Komplexität und nicht zuletzt deshalb gilt er noch heute als ein tiefsinniger, abstrakter Virtuose seiner Sprache. Engel führt eindrücklich aus, warum in der internationalen Shakespeare-Forschung die Autorenfrage nicht als legitimes Forschungsthema angesehen wird und der Baconismus als haltloses Unterfangen bezeichnet werden kann.

For instance, what was he doing or where was he travelling during certain unchronicled years Why do we hear so little in modern books of that beloved brother Anthony, who was his comfort, and his second self And where was Anthony when he died Where was he buried And why are no particulars of his eventful life, his last illness, death, or burial recorded in ordinary books Francis Bacon (1561 1626): philosopher, playwright, poet, and conceiver of the scientific method for empirical inquiry. The staggering amount of publications in which he was involved and his demand for a worldwide reformation of learning, science, and religion have made him one of the most important minds of the Elizabethan era. As much as Bacon s public life influenced the world of science, there is an equal part of his life obscured by his secrecy. This book sets out to delve into these secrets in order to uncover the full extent of Bacon s work. His self-devised secret cipher, his apparent connections to the Rosicrucians and Freemasons, and the frequent gaps in his biography are thoroughly examined, making this a valuable addition to any Baconian collection. ····· 1036174714

While his poems and short stories first gained popularity in Europe, his fellow Americans appreciated his sharp essays and merciless literary criticism. His legacy continues until the present day and transcends the borders of literature, influencing writers of both fiction and non-fiction as well as artists and even scientists. Poe himself and many others have often described the literary theory which underlies all of his work, yet less light has been shed upon how that theory was formed. Analysing the writer s works in conjunction with the various scientific, philosophic and literary material that he is known to have read, Margaret Alterton reconstructs the genesis of the very fundament of Poe s genius. ····· 1036174669· 1 · ::::: · 8 ·· 9 ·· 10 ·· 11 ·· 12 ·· 13 ·· 14 · ::::: · 17 ·
