Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinua Achebe's influence on contemporary African literature is as much in evidence in his art of the novel as his theory of African literature and literary criticism. ISINKA (Igbo term for artistic purpose') establishes Achebe's legacy as a literary theorist and critic. In these essays scholars from around the globe assess and establish how much Achebe's extra-fictional ideas about African literature and literature in general are justified in his own creative works.'

Download or read book Perspectives on Language Research written by Marinela Burada and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-09-11 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dedicated to language-related research, the present volume brings together contributions that reflect the interests, experiences, and challenges of theorists, practitioners, and language instructors today. Drawing on case-studies and authentic data, the articles showcase issues concerning, on the one hand, the analysis of language structure at various levels (phonology, morphology, syntax) and, on the other, the construction of text and identity in areas such as teaching, academic writing, or translation. The diversity of topics and approaches makes “Perspectives on Language Research” a valuable resource for students and specialists in language and communication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a previous volume, State and Society in Papua New Guinea: The First Twenty-Five Years (2001, reprinted by ANU E Press in 2004), a collection of papers by the author published between 1971 and 2001 was put together to mark Papua New Guinea’s first 25 years as an independent state. This volume presents a collection of papers written between 2001 and 2021, which update the story of political and social development in Papua New Guinea in the first two decades of the twenty-first century. The chapters cover a range of topics, from an evaluation of proposals for political reform in the early 2000s, a review of the discussion of ‘failing states’ in the island Pacific and the shift to limited preferential voting in 2007, to a detailed account of political developments from the move against Sir Michael Somare in 2011 to the election of Prime Minister Marape and his performance to 2022. There are also chapters on language policy, external and internal security, religious fundamentalism and national identity, and the sustainability of economic growth.

Download or read book Perception Metaphors written by Laura J. Speed and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2019-02-15 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metaphor allows us to think and talk about one thing in terms of another, ratcheting up our cognitive and expressive capacity. It gives us concrete terms for abstract phenomena, for example, ideas become things we can grasp or let go of. Perceptual experience—characterised as physical and relatively concrete—should be an ideal source domain in metaphor, and a less likely target. But is this the case across diverse languages? And are some sensory modalities perhaps more concrete than others? This volume presents critical new data on perception metaphors from over 40 languages, including many which are under-studied. Aside from the wealth of data from diverse languages—modern and historical; spoken and signed—a variety of methods (e.g., natural language corpora, experimental) and theoretical approaches are brought together. This collection highlights how perception metaphor can offer both a bedrock of common experience and a source of continuing innovation in human communication.
