It is a study of two consecutive phases. The first phase is a qualitative exploration of the sources for which interviews and diaries were collected from six informants with different levels of English language proficiency. The second, is a quantitative phase that followed up on the qualitative phase for the purpose of expanding and generalizing the results of the generated themes. In the quantitative phase, a cross-sectional survey of 1500 number of undergraduate students who were taking Basic English courses was administered. A total of 1006 questionnaires was valid for analysis. However, only 408 questionnaires were randomly chosen according to the criteria of quota sampling techniques. The findings revealed that there were two aspects of foreign language reading anxiety: personal factor and text feature. Under the personal factor there were two main sources which are afraid of making errors and worry about reading effects. On the other hand, there were three main sources sources under the text feature which are unknown vocabulary, unfamiliar topic, and unfamiliar culture. ····· 1036118574

In respect of syntactic behaviour ,some metaphors are resistant to pluralization, passivization,interrogation and modification ,whereas others are less resistant.Semantically,journalistic metaphors can be interpreted differently as containing implicit comparison or mapping between two domains.But, journalistic metaphors tend to be deviant , violate selectional restrictions, and normal collocations which add interest to the text. ····· 1036118517

The study consists of an introduction, five chapters, the first four of which are concerned with an analysis of the poetry. The last surveys their prose and drama. This is followed by a conclusion.Ch. I relates the identity dilemma felt by African-Americans with regard to the call for négritude and traces African archetypes through analyzing the maternal image of Africa. .Ch. II introduces strain in race relations because of the identity dilemma referred to in the previous one.Chapter III analyzes protest-related poems and shows to what extent each poet interacts with the problems of his society and finally proves that Hughes had indeed long been accredited the poet of the black people.Chapter IV discusses the two concepts of love and death and how they intermingle to show the dilemma of African-American people who are caught between two fires: hope and despair.Chapter V gives a bird s-eye-view on the prose and drama written by the two poets. ····· 1036118513

This book ascertains the restrictions on the proper use of the English intonation in a second language situation and implications thereof for intelligible communication. Various factors working compositely to create misnomer in correct pronunciation of English sound melody are identified as negative transfer phenomenon, a group of scholars` dissuasion in teaching the suprasegmentals, nonchalant attitude of learners to learn and practise as well as the absence of media[language laboratories, teaching machines as computers, etc,] in many tertiary institutions. Speakers of English are therefore ignorant about the English tune patterns and so the semantic suggestions of the tunes are minimally realised or are lost entirely.This work comes as a vade mecum for those who want to make their spoken English endearing. ····· 1036118483
für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray In the last 200 years, women have been expressing their awareness and outrage at patriarchal oppression and have been mobilising themselves to struggle against the injustices inherent in it. Women writers have, over the last two hundred years, been claiming a space and a voice for themselves in the literary field, and feminist literary critics have been re-examining literary works, whether canonical or not, to indicate ways in which gender constructs and gender stereotypes have been reinforced or challenged through literature. This book stems from a strong conviction that there is need for feminist literary criticism that is specifically relevant to the Indian situation. Shashi Deshpande and Mahasweta Devi were deliberately chosen for analysis: they represent opposite ends of the spectrum in their political engagement, the cultural moorings of their work, the location of their narratives and the levels of consciousness they awaken in their readers. Through this analysis, the author indicates that such literary works serve to heighten awareness and articulate a protest, to present an alternative view of life, to spur the reader on to active engagement with social structures. ····· 1036118339
für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray The empowering of Marlowe and his literary texts is mostly the product of a general Victorian attempt to introduce the prestigious Renaissance English literature as a sign of English genius and national superiority. Then, there has been a shift in Marlowe criticism, this is not primarily due to a deliberate attempt to represent or misrepresent the playwright, but is rather, in some cases, a result of the critics`, scholars`, and researchers` self-identification with the playwright which produces relevant meanings. Interpreting Marlowe`s plays, accordingly, is closely linked to a set of beliefs, tenets, or ideological attitudes which the critic holds, and this makes the authorial voice of the text (words and their meanings) barely audible against the authority of the reader with their attendant perceptions and attitudes. Indeed, in Marlowe criticism, it is not always the text, or its context, which validates or invalidates one understanding or another. It has to do, as well, with the critic`s social, political, and economic position, as well as the place and time in which the literature is approached. ····· 1036118295

In other words, the native models should not be exclusively regarded by educational authorities in the country.

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray In this tightly argued work, Dr. Wallen draws out the similarities and connections which exist between T.S. Eliot and several writers of the nineteen-thirties. Given the influence, novelty and (in the early years of the decade at least) notoriety of Eliot s poetry throughout this period, it is natural to expect his influence to be, in some ways, very direct and observable. The author chooses to single out five poets and one novelist of the period for special and detailed attention. This is due to his belief that Eliot s creative influence on the nineteen-thirties can be best demonstrated in all its complexity by reference to a number of specific writers. In other words, the connections between Eliot and these six writers typifies the nature of Eliot s influence on the decade as a whole. This influence moves from virtual plagiarism in Ronald Bottrall s case to a smart but derivative stylishness in the works of Auden and Spender and finally through to a more intelligent and indirect debt in the case of William Empson and Evelyn Waugh. ····· 103613778

It is no accident, therefore, that the translation of the Qur`an was, and still has been, a problematic area that has incessantly raised a great fuss over how to bring a proper or even appropriate translation of it. Taking such axioms into account, as the writer of the present translational work, I have tried to bring translators as well as scholars of religious texts in general and the Quranic text in particular into real and practical problems of rendering such a sublime text. ····· 103613681

As a result we still know little about the characteristics of such vocabulary and how best to acquire it. This book addresses some of those issues through a corpus study of a semester s reading material for a graduate-level theology course at a theological seminary in the United States, and a case study with graduate, first and second language (L1 and L2) students studying theology. The corpus study examines the amount and frequency of technical vocabulary in theology textbooks in order to examine the extent to which these texts provide the lexical input necessary to aid in incidental learning of technical vocabulary in the mainstream classroom over the course of a semester by L2 students. The small case study compares how well L1 and L2 students were able to acquire technical vocabulary after reading assigned texts and listening to a lecture for one class. The results and implications should be of particular interest to vocabulary acquisition researchers and teachers of EAP. ····· 103613541

Not limited to the incursion of various European powers into Asia, Africa or the Americas alone, it is a continuous, widespread feature of human history. Leela Gandhi remarks: Colonialism marks the historical process whereby the West attempts systematically to cancel or negate the cultural difference and value of the non-west `. India was one of the productive colonies for the West,and its natives mere human material . The Orient was treated as alien and unusual , civilizationally inferior, weak and suitable for colonisation, says Said. It was a playground for Western desires, repressions, investments, projections and that it was Europe s richest colonies and one of its recurring images of the Other . Asif Currimbhoy, the authentic voice in Indian English theatre deals with various notions of postcolonialism in all his plays, written during India`s post-independence period, with their focus on the cultural, social and political dimensions. Contemporary postcolonial discourses put capitalism culpable when it depends on racial hierarchies, self-other distinction,and all sorts of oppression. ····· 103613498

This is due to the fact that stress exhibits conflicting properties which makes it difficult to provide answers to a number of issues. This book provides an investigation into a prominent aspect of prosodic phonology in Moroccan Arabic (a case study of the dialect of Rabat city), namely, stress assignment in the grammatical category of verbs within the framework of optimality theory as proposed in Prince and Smolensky and McCarthy and Prince. It particularly addresses a range of issues such as: the position of stress, the basis on which stress is located, the factors on the basis of which stress location is effected, the importance of the perceptual and the instrumental tests in shedding light on stress assignment, and the extent to which the optimality theoretic analysis confirm or disconfirm the results of the perceptual and the instrumental tests concerning stress placement. This book will be of interest to linguistics, teachers, researchers and to anyone interested in language study and phonological theory. ····· 103613463
