Download or read book Handbook of Multilingualism and Multiculturalism written by Geneviève Zarate and published by Archives contemporaines. This book was released on 2011 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Built around the concept of linguistic and cultural plurality, this book defines language as an instrument of action and symbolic power. Plurality is conceived here as : a complex array of voices, perspectives and approaches that seeks to preserve the complexity of the multilingual and multicultural enterprise, including language learning and teaching ; a coherent system of relationships among various languages, research traditions and research sites that informs qualitative methods of inquiry into multilingualism and its uses in everyday life ; a view of language as structured sociohistorical object, observable from several simultaneous spatiotemporal standpoints, such as that of daily interactions or that which sustains the symbolic power of institutions. This book is addressed to teacher trainers, young researchers, decision makers, teachers concerned with the role of languages in the evolution of societies and educational systems. It aims to elicit discussion by articulating practices, field observations and analyses based on a multidisciplinary conceptual framework.

Download or read book The Semiotics of Culture and Language written by Robin P. Fawcett and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-12-17 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Semiotics - the study of the general principles of signs and sign systems – is crucial to an understanding of human nature, both social and psychological. The sign systems that we use for interaction with other living beings determine our potential for thought and social action, and language is central among them. It is the implicit claim of this two-volume work that linguistics has something very specific to give to semiotics, and many would further claim that relational network models of language in particular, i.e. systematic and stratificational linguistics, have a fundamental contribution to make.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toute situation de communication fait appel a un code qui peut etre verbal ou non-verbal. Le present travail se propose de jeter un regard sur la communication africaine au moyen des symboles. En Afrique, les symboles sont le reflet du dualisme de lexistence humaine: la vie et la mort, le bien et le mal, lhomme et la femme, le spirituel et le physique. Lobjectif de cette recherche est de faciliter lencrage et lenracinement des africains dans leur culture. Elle vise egalement a contribuer a lenseignement de la culture nationale dans les etablissements scolaires. Il est question de faire parler le silence en vue de rendre plus explicite et manifeste ce qui demeure encore implicite et latent.Chez les gemba, la plupart des elements du cosmos peuvent faire lobjet dune interpretation. Ainsi, astres, vegetaux, animaux, litterature, art, artefacts et humains sont tous interpretables a plusieurs niveaux de la signification.Dans le processus de lunification planetaire, lAfrique gagnerait a revaloriser son patrimoine culturel afin de ne pas se laisser phagocyter par des civilisations plus dominantes.Lapprentissage du langage des symboles africains serait une issue pour cela.

Download or read book Translation and the Reconfiguration of Power Relations written by Beatrice Fischer and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2012 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents translation as a powerful activity by revisiting the roles of translators and interpreters and the contexts of translation and interpreting in societies affected by globalization and migration. The articles cover topics such as the impact languages have on translation, the institutional constraints in the context of translation, and the challenges within the framework of multimodal translation. In recent years, questions of power in translation have emerged. In such a context, the book presents new research paths that can be related to some of the most discussed issues of recent years in Translation Studies. The contributors are 14 PhD students who investigate the power relations in the context of censorship, ideology, localization, multimodal translation, English as a lingua franca in translation, mandatory genres, and translation by non-professional subject-matter translators.

Book excerpt: This book contains 17 studies by leading international scholars working on a wide range of topics in Arabic socio-linguistics, divided into four parts.

Part 4 contains 5 papers in which variation, code-switching and generational language shift in the Arabic-language diaspora in Europe and the USA are the focus.
