····· lezzter Preis 44.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Since the rise of Cognitive Linguistics, prepositional polysemy has become a heated topic and invited treatments of a great number of cognitive linguists. Among them, Tyler and Evans (2003) have been holding sway with their Principled Polysemy Model , in which they develop a more constrained semantic network for over. The present study is a critique of this model. By revisiting some typical examples among the 14 postulated additional senses of over, it is revealed that it exhibits three flaws:(1) a misleading premise, which regards meanings that come about on the basis of the preposition over and other words as the basic meaning of over (2) assuming still redundant and erroneous polysemy for over (3) frequent mismatched examples. This study suggests a minimal polysemy approach and reveals the significance of tracing back to the nature of prepositional meanings in probing into prepositional polysemy. ····· 1036192229

Her works, however, are different from the works of other immigrant writers. One reason is the language Ozdamar uses in her works. The language of her novels is a mixture of German and Turkish. Her literal translation of Turkish phrases and idioms to German is one of the distinctive characteristics of her novels. Content and context of the novels are also opposite the stereotyped immigration novels. The focus of this study is to analyze the changes in the life of the protagonist who undergoes a transformation in Germany. In the light of the relationship between social drama and rituals proposed by Victor Turner, the social drama of Turkey in the first novel, Caravanserai, and the transformation of the protagonist in the second novel, The Golden Horn, will be comparatively examined. Changes and novelties in the transformation of the protagonist after her immigration to Germany will be analyzed as an outcome of the social contradictions and norm conflicts between the sending and receiving societies. ····· 1036192226

However, dictation has been overlooked as a technique in addressing the difficulties of writing in English by teachers. Writing in English is increasingly becoming an intricate process amongst students whose native language is not English. Therefore, teachers who find difficult in addressing this problem may take dictation as a technique to help students who are poor or weak and distressful over getting their writing right. This book rekindles an old lost technique and rest assures of its results when dictation is practised from time to time religiously. ····· 1036192094
für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Vocabulary is no longer treated in a cavalier fashion, finding its way among the most important aspects of Second Language Learning. Nonetheless, the bulk of literature on L2 vocabulary acquisition does not mean that all is said in the field. Many aspects of this area are still in their infancy. One of them relates to the introduction and distribution of vocabulary and its impact on the amount and rate of L2 vocabulary acquired. Despite the claim for a systematic introduction, didactic materials normally show an unsystematic presentation of vocabulary. This mismatch between the theoretical and the empirical gives us a good reason to gauge the relationship between input introduction and acquisition. This book intends to be an introduction to the analysis of the reality described above, where the quantity and rate of vocabulary acquisition in a Foreign Language might be conditioned by the way vocabulary is introduced and distributed. By addressing this issue we want to deepen our understanding of the mechanisms of introduction and acquisition of L2 vocabulary. It is hoped that resource designers and the whole teaching-learning community can benefit from this study. ····· 1036192050

The study used a series of videoed and transcribed task observations based on Spot the Differences information-gap activities. The views and beliefs of 6 teachers and 6 Pre-Sessional students all from University of Essex were also sampled using structured, in-depth interviews. The teacher interviews revealed that the more experienced teachers focused attention on fluency and helping student to keep going , while less experienced tutors focused attention on both fluency and vocabulary learning in communication tasks. The student interviews findings also indicated that students` beliefs are affected by tutor beliefs. Data from the videoed observations revealed that body language was an important element in communicating meaning. ····· 1036192047

To achieve this aim, thirty participants read three literary and two non-literary texts and wrote down the questions for which they could not find any answer.Next, these questions were categorized in five groups: Scripturally implicit, textually implicit, textually explicit, linguistic and miscomprehension. The findings suggest that the dominant problem of participants lies in textually implicit aspects of the text. Finally, a Kruskal-Wallis test was applied in order to compare the frequency of question types across literary and non-literary texts. The difference of all question types proved to be statistically significant across both literary and non-literary texts. ····· 1036191871
····· lezzter Preis 71.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray One of the serious problems which Japanese EFL (English as a foreign language) learners face during reading is their lack of reading fluency. Therefore, this study addresses the process of how Japanese EFL readers recognize minimal information processing units, which are called chunks, and how these chunks are incorporated into the readers` entire comprehension. This study has three major purposes: (1) to examine the effects of phrase-based chunk-cues on reading comprehension, (2) to measure readers autonomous chunking units, and (3) to investigate the effects of chunk-cues with reference to (1) and (2). The results of six experiments can be summarized as follows. First, the effects of chunk-cues vary according to readers autonomous chunking, rather than readers` L2 reading proficiency and working memory span. Second, transitivity, one of the verb biases, affects autonomous chunking. ····· 1036191859

Writing on Eliot was not an easy task, nonetheless I, as a student of literature, have tried to express myself on the use and practice of the indigenous ideas like `impersonality of poetry` and `literary tradition` in an academic setting. I hope this will help especially young students understand Eliot in a better way and will also help and encourage me to read and work more on the writers of his class. Eliot can be termed as `Mirza Ghalib` regarding sophistication and difficulties of his poetic expressions every time you read them, you find yet new meanings and themes between the same lines. this timeless quality does not let them get obsolete and this is what will keep pulling the attention of researchers of every age to work on them from newer angles.

What one perceives around oneself is Militarism , Peace Operation , War on Terror , Mutually-assured Destruction (righteously abbreviated as MAD) war in its old garb has become non-functional and is replaced by this totalitarian form of war. War against Terror in Afghanistan, wherein the dystopic permeation of virtual war is amply manifest, is the most potent example of virtual war where the discursive practices have codified war-reality into language that serves the specific, pre-defined political purposes making the actual conflict and the turmoil of war irrelevant and insignificant. The main objective of this book is analyzing the ontological meaning of virtual reality, and observing how vested irreality is used at verbal, visual and literary plane to create a strong political and massively acceptable rhetoric for war. In this endeavor, the nature of virtual reality is analysed in detail in the first chapter and in the following three chapters the attempt is to de-code the co-relational impact of virtual reality on the politically constructed grand narratives, the fictional records of War against Terror and the interactive visual narrative. ····· 1036191761

This fact highlights the importance of listening in our lives and signifies its intricacy and complexities involved in learning it when it comes to mastering listening as a skill in a foreign or second language. There is no shortage of books, monographs and documents on the value of listening and how it can be developed and consolidated by L2 learners, and indeed, the difficulty learners may face in this regard seem to be concerned with the multiplicity rather than paucity of view points on how their listening problem may be tackled. Although advice coming from experts and experienced scholars in this area is embraced too eagerly by the clients, the problem of how listening problems can be sorted out will persist unless solutions provided by teachers and counselors have theoretical-research bases and been empirically tested. It is the aim of this research-oriented book to fill the existing gap by offering empirical advice on how a small portion of learner listener problems may be alleviated by applying certain grammar-based advice. The book is intended for both practitioners and researchers in applied linguistics. ····· 1036191602

Desde su primer gran éxito, `Philadelphia, Here I Come!` (1964), hasta su última obra del siglo XX, `Give Me Your Answer, Do!` (1997), acompañaremos al dramaturgo en su búsqueda incesante de los orígenes de la violencia, de los límites entre realidad y ficción y del proceso de formación de la memoria. A lo largo de cuatro etapas veremos la evolución de un autor pionero en su voluntad de romper con los viejos mitos que fosilizaban una sociedad escindida, y estimado por los actores por la complejidad de sus personajes y la belleza y verdad que caracterizan sus diálogos. Friel ha sido representado en España desde 1988, aunque sigue siendo un gran desconocido en ámbitos académicos y teatrales en lengua española. Analizamos aquí desde la primera traducción de Josep Mª Balanya, `Traduccions` (1984), hasta la primera obra representada en Valencia, `Molly Sweeney` (2005), con un estudio de la traducción, gestación, producción y recepción de cada puesta en escena. ····· 1036189665

Se muestra que dicho papel se fundamenta en una concepción educativa tradicional que se apoya en los principios de una didáctica parametral en donde, de manera acrítica, el libro de texto constituye el referente principal y se usa como guía para la enseñanza de una lengua extranjera. En contraposición a lo anterior, se propone introducir un nuevo paradigma en la formación de los docentes de lengua extranjera, cuyo fundamento radica en los principios propios de la didáctica no parametral, que justifica el descentramiento del libro de texto y la integración de otras formas de enseñanza más flexibles y significativas. ····· 1036189545

So I tried to find out the reason or reasons of this problem. The first probability for this problem was that the difference between on-line and off-line environment influenced the students` performance in an on-line reading comprehension test. The second probability that I have made for this problem was that having a high level of IT literacy had any effect on the performance of students in the on-line reading comprehension test or not. And the last hypothesis for investigating the reason of this problem was that students may have employed inappropriate strategies while they were reading on-line. All these probabilities and hypotheses have led the researcher toward formulating the null hypotheses of this study. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of on-line Reading strategies on the choice of off-line Reading strategies of Iranian Intermediate EFL Learners. ····· 1036189261
für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray To the Shakespearean reader, `Othello` is a literary treatise on the Other . However, a different reading reveals a neglected dynamic of how and why the presence of the blackamoor, speaks about the English. The self-made English identity is thus reshaped, where historico-political reading on the expansion of the Ottoman Empire, challenges this stability. This book puts forth the connection of the Battle of Lepanto to Iago`s envy in shaping the seventeenth-century English identity where early forms of ethnocentrism teeters on the edges when we realise that Shakespeare might not even portray a picture of the Other in Othello , but of the regression of the English in the double dealings of Iago. It provides new insights on the relevancy of contemporary European internal politics and how the Papacy influence Christian countries to the play. A Muslim reading on this play will shed light on the significance of combining historical knowledge on both the Islamic world and those in the Christian realms. This book is the beginning of a new train of thought. Get on it! ····· 1036189138
für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray This work was initially motivated by a drive to analyse the situation whereby students are now faced with the new legislation affecting all European Universities. The Bologna Declaration on the European space for Higher Education encourages a system of comparable degrees, in order to promote employability and international competitiveness at a European level. English instructors are thereby required to work toward the establishment of specific and uniform criteria, conditions and procedures that enable students to obtain the common required level of proficiency. To this aim, the European Council published a manual, aimed to establish the standardisation of levels and approaches to language teaching. In order to calibrate the students levels of proficiency, and to approach teaching from a similar perspective, all forty-seven member states were invited to use the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), based on the Communicative Approach. A thorough study of this renowned method is included in the present study, in order to identify the core issues and the theoretical implications it may present for the implementation of the CEFR document. ····· 1036189135

Even more, though, it is a book about how Chatwin came to be the person he was through his narrative style. The two innovative elements of his style are his anthropological approach to writing and his new mode of visual perception: the concepts of liminality and visualisation lie at the core of his texts. Chatwin s writing not only branded travel literature in the eighties but transcended to other fields of fiction and non-fiction. Furthermore, Chatwin s particular way of perceiving reality both abroad and at home made him perceive his own reality in a different way he defined himself through an unconventional kind of subjectivity, thus creating a representation of identity other than the one expected in autobiographical accounts. From Chatwin I have learned that fictions enable us to live. He portrays the world through his own fictions and by doing so, readers perceive that reality is plural. We are urged to look not so much for one single and individual truth but for several and universal. Chatwin s writing is the voice of a man who looks for the reconciliation of opposites within literature and life. ····· 1036188989
····· lezzter Preis 71.10€ ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray British imperialism was formulated during the period from the late sixteenth century to the late nineteenth through the use of various discourses such as colonialism, racism, overseas commercialism and pro-imperial militarism. During the period, literary production was always used as a functional tool in the formulation and dissemination of the discourses of British imperialism. Therefore, after the 1870s, when the age of New Imperialism began with the emergence of new European imperial powers, popular adventure novels also began to emerge and then be appropriated as propaganda tools for the reinforcement of the imperial ideology in British society. Imperial adventure novels of George Alfred Henty represent this propagandist attitude in late Victorian popular fiction. However, another response to New Imperialism in Britain was the emergence of an anti-imperialistic approach. Although most critics, heavily influenced by postcolonial theory, have interpreted the imperial romances of Henry Rider Haggard as representing the pro-imperialist attitude, Ak ll argues and illustrates in this book that Haggard s novels reflect a worldview which was sharply critical of British imperialism. ····· 1036188921
