Book Metaphors of ANGER across Languages  Universality and Variation

Download or read book Metaphors of ANGER across Languages Universality and Variation written by Zoltan Kövecses and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-11-04 with total page 750 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anger is one of the basic emotions of human emotional experience, informing and guiding many of our choices and actions. Although it has received considerable scholarly attention in a number of disciplines, including linguistics, a basic question has still remained unresolved: why do variations in the folk model of anger exist across languages if it is indeed a basic emotion rooted in largely universal bodily experience? By drawing on a wide selection of comparable linguistic data from dozens of languages (including a number of less-researched languages), this volume provides the most comprehensive account of what is universal and what is variable in the folk model of anger – and why. It also investigates the role that metonymies might play in the emergence of anger-related metaphors and in what ways context influences or shapes anger metaphors and thereby the resulting folk model of anger. No such volume exists in the (cognitive) linguistic literature on anger – or on emotions for that matter. The book is thus an essential contribution to the study of anger and will serve as basic reading for any researcher interested in how the conceptualization of anger is constructed via the interplay of bodily experience, language and the larger cultural context.

Book The Genealogical Imagination

Download or read book The Genealogical Imagination written by Michael Jackson and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-05 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Genealogical Imagination Michael Jackson juxtaposes ethnographic and imaginative writing to explore intergenerational trauma and temporality. Drawing on over fifty years of fieldwork, Jackson recounts the 150-year history of a Sierra Leone family through its periods of prosperity and powerlessness, war and peace, jihad and migration. Jackson also offers a fictionalized narrative loosely based on his family history and fieldwork in northeastern Australia that traces how the trauma of wartime in one generation can reverberate into the next. In both stories Jackson reflects on different modes of being-in-time, demonstrating how genealogical time flows in stops and starts—linear at times, discontinuous at others—as current generations reckon with their relationships to their ancestors. Genealogy, Jackson demonstrates, becomes a powerful model for understanding our experience of being-in-the-world, as nobody can escape kinship and the pull of the past. Unconventional and evocative, The Genealogical Imagination offers a nuanced account of how lives are lived, while it pushes the bounds of the forms that scholarship can take.

Book Pengantar Metodologi Penelitian Sosial   Plus

Download or read book Pengantar Metodologi Penelitian Sosial Plus written by Dr. Ahmad Tohardi and published by Tanjungpura University Press. This book was released on 2019-12-19 with total page 1305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Berangkat dari pengalaman mengajar di kelas pada saat kuliah Metodologi Penelitian khususnya, selalu saja kekurangan waktu untuk menjelaskan materi kuliah yang bersangkutan, sementara disisi lain masih banyak materi yang harus disampaikan kepada mahasiswa, sehingga akhirnya dosen harus memilih apakah memilih materi yang disampaikan sedikit tetapi mahasiswa memahami semua yang disampaikan, atau memilih menyampaikan semua materi, tetapi konsekuensinya mungkin banyak mahasiswa yang tidak faham. Untuk itu adanya Buku Ajar ini sedikit dapat membantu dosen dan mahasiswa untuk menemukan jalan tengah, artinya tidak semua materi harus disampaikan dikelas, bagian dari materi yang kira-kira bisa difahami oleh mahasiswa hanya dengan membaca sendiri, maka dapat hanya dengan membaca di Buku Ajar ini, dengan demikian semua materi yang sudah direncanakan oleh dosen di 14 kali pertemuan per semester tersebut dapat disampaikan semua dengan tuntas. Sebagai pengayaan tambahan maka di kelas, perlu dibuka “ruang” diskusi bagi mahasiswa yang belum faham setelah membaca Buku Ajar ini. Buku Ajar ini coba penulis tuliskan dengan menggunakan Bahasa “kampung” tujuannya adalah agar apa yang ditulis dalam buku ini mudah difahami oleh siapa saja. Disamping itu berbagai materi yang ditulis dalam Buku Ajar ini adalah kombinasi teori dan praktik, sehingga isi buku ini lebih mengarah kepada pragmatis, khususnya dalam konteks penelitian akademik (Skripsi,Tesis dan Disertasi). Akhir kata, karena keterbatasan pengetahuan dan wawasan serta pengalaman penulis, khususnya dalam bidang ilmu Metodologi Penelitian, maka buku ini tentu masih jauh dari sempurna seperti kata pepatah tiada gading yang tak retak, untuk itu segala kritik dan saran yang konstruktif dari para pembaca sangatlah penulis diharapkan guna penyempurnaan buku ini dimasa yang akan datang.

Book Existential Anthropology

Download or read book Existential Anthropology written by Michael Jackson and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2005-06-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by existential thought, but using ethnographic methods, Jackson explores a variety of compelling topics, including 9/11, episodes from the war in Sierra Leone and its aftermath, the marginalization of indigenous Australians, the application of new technologies, mundane forms of ritualization, the magical use of language, the sociality of violence, the prose of suffering, and the discourse of human rights. Throughout this compelling work, Jackson demonstrates that existentialism, far from being a philosophy of individual being, enables us to explore issues of social existence and coexistence in new ways, and to theorise events as the sites of a dynamic interplay between the finite possibilities of the situations in which human beings find themselves and the capacities they yet possess for creating viable forms of social life.
