Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Language and Persuasion written by Jeanne Fahnestock and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-09-30 with total page 831 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook provides a wide-ranging, authoritative, and cutting-edge overview of language and persuasion. Featuring a range of international contributors, the handbook outlines the basic materials of linguistic persuasion – sound, words, syntax, and discourse – and the rhetorical basics that they enable, such as appeals, argument schemes, arrangement strategies, and accommodation devices. After a comprehensive introduction that brings together the elements of linguistics and the vectors of rhetoric, the handbook is divided into six parts. Part I covers the basic rhetorical appeals to character, the emotions, argument schemes, and types of issues that constitute persuasion. Part II covers the enduring effects of persuasive language, from humor to polarization, while a special group of chapters in Part III examines figures of speech and their rhetorical uses. In Part IV, contributors focus on different fields and genres of argument as entry points for research into conventions of arguing. Part V examines the evolutionary and developmental roots of persuasive language, and Part VI highlights new computational methods of language analysis. This handbook is essential reading for those researching and studying persuasive language in the fields of linguistics, rhetoric, argumentation, communication, discourse studies, political science, psychology, digital studies, mass media, and journalism.

Hundreds of new subjects have been added, indexing poems on highly relevant topics such as Osama bin Laden, the war in Iraq, Dick Cheney, the Internet, and Rosa Parks, as well as timeless subjects like the Bill of Rights, unspoken love, faith, and inspiration. Our impressive team of consultants includes J. D. McClatchy, Harvey Shapiro, and former poet laureate Mark Strand. From The Norton Anthology of Poetry (2005 edition) to Poetry after 9/11 and Garrison Keillor's Good Poems, this new edition puts readers in touch with the best of the latest anthologies and the lasting favorites.

Book excerpt: Jouant avec l'apparente indolence du quotidien dans les banlieues américaines, Amity Gaige dissèque avec lucidité la vie d'un jeune couple. Pris au piège du mariage, comment déjouer l'inéluctable descente aux enfers ? Découvrez le premier roman de l'auteur de Schroder. Cela commence comme la plus belle des histoires : Charlotte et Clark, trois ans de mariage, des rêves plein la tête, un futur radieux. Et un projet, emménager dans cette jolie maison de la banlieue de Boston qu'ils ont achetée sur un coup de tête. Une maison idéale pour se construire un avenir commun, pour abriter la famille qu'ils vont former. Une maison comme un cocon. Ou comme une prison. Car peu de temps après leur installation, la maison qui hier encore leur paraissait si parfaite semble avoir changé. Comme si les murs s'étaient rapprochés, les plafonds abaissés, comme si tout l'espace s'était rétréci. Comme si la maison elle-même ressentait un certain malaise. Quelles angoisses se cachent derrière les murs ? Quel drame s'est joué dans l'enfance de Clark qui l'empêche d'envisager un avenir ? Pourquoi Charlotte a-t-elle un tel empêchement face à la maternité ? Parviendront-ils à renouer le lien ? Avec une douce ironie et une sidérante lucidité, Amity Gaige dissèque le quotidien d'un jeune couple, entre joies simples, angoisses tues et preuves d'amour.

Download or read book The Genesis of the Langlands Program written by Julia Mueller and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-08-05 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Langlands formulated his celebrated conjectures, initiating the Langlands Program, at the age of 31, profoundly changing the landscape of mathematics. Langlands, recipient of the Abel Prize, is famous for his insight in discovering links among seemingly dissimilar objects, leading to astounding results. This book is uniquely designed to serve a wide range of mathematicians and advanced students, showcasing Langlands' unique creativity and guiding readers through the areas of Langlands' work that are generally regarded as technical and difficult to penetrate. Part 1 features non-technical personal reflections, including Langlands' own words describing how and why he was led to formulate his conjectures. Part 2 includes survey articles of Langlands' early work that led to his conjectures, and centers on his principle of functoriality and foundational work on the Eisenstein series, and is accessible to mathematicians from other fields. Part 3 describes some of Langlands' contributions to mathematical physics.

Download or read book Towards the Romantic Age written by R. Neuhauser and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1974-05-31 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russian literature between 1750 and the romantic age presents a confus ing picture. Various literary movements arose and existed side by side, while new trends made themselves felt. At no other time in the history of Russian literature was there a similar influx of widely disparate literary and intellectual influences from the West. The complex evolution of literature is reflected in the area of literary classification. Period terms have been used in great variety, yet without general agreement as to the extent, or even the nature of the trends described. The essays of this study are devoted to two major literary trends of the 18th and early 19th century, -sentimentalism and preromanticism. They aim to elucidate their evolu tion as well as at defining and describing the conceptual framework on which they rest. Since the 18th century did not draw a sharp line between translated and original literature, both have been included here. Literary, philosophical, and general cultural influences from the West were of consi derable importance for Russian literature. The concepts, motifs and themes which reached Russian writers in translations moulded their own original works. The 18th century witnessed the formation of an adequate literary language which culminated in Kararnzin's style. The distinction of two stages in the development of sentimentalism as suggested here and the differentiation between both of them and a third literary trend, preroman ticism, is an attempt to reflect adequately the rapid change in stylistic and poetic norms.
