Download or read book Pause and Effect written by M.B. Parkes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its publication in 1992 Pause and Effect has become a cornerstone of the study of punctuation across the world. Described as 'magisterial' by Lynne Truss in her best-selling Eats, Shoots and Leaves, this book has stimulated interest and scholarly debates among writers, literary critics, philosophers, linguists, rhetoricians, palaeographers and all those who study the use of language. To celebrate this extraordinary achievement, Pause and Effect has been republished in September 2008, coinciding with the publication of the author's new work, Their Hands Before Our Eyes. The first part of Pause and Effect identifies the graphic symbols of punctuation and deals with their history. It covers the antecedents of the repertory of symbols, as well as the ways in which the repertory was refined and augmented with new symbols to meet changing requirements. The second part offers a short general account of the principal influences which have contributed to the ways in which the symbols have been applied in texts, focusing on the evidence of the practice itself rather than on theorists. The treatment enables the reader to compare usages in different periods, and to isolate the principles which underlie the use of punctuation in all periods. The examples and plates which are at the core of the book provide the reader with an opportunity to test the author's observations. The examples are taken from a wide range of literary texts from different periods and languages. Latin texts are accompanied by English translation intended to illustrate the use of punctuation in the originals in so far as this is possible.

Download or read book The Pause Effect written by Megan Broker and published by Manuscripts LLC. This book was released on 2024-05-18 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pause Effect explores the impact of capturing moments often left unnoticed to intentionally pause to align to our brand and values while establishing our own belonging to serve others. Megan Broker’s debut book equips us to learn in real-time by sharing her leadership journey through the lens of one of life’s most charged and complicated mergers: blending families. Blended families are like highly matrixed organizations lacking clear roles and reporting structures with competing cultures. The Pause Effect delves deep into the unexplored dimension of the personal journey of establishing a profound sense of belonging and aligning one’s values to create a powerful brand. Drawing on years of experience, research, real-world examples, and personal anecdotes, Megan presents a perspective that challenges conventional leadership paradigms. In today’s dynamic and diverse world, the traditional notions of leadership have evolved. No longer is leadership merely about authority and influence. It’s about fostering genuine connections, harnessing individual strengths, and driving collective growth. The Pause Effect advocates for present and future leaders to begin their journey from within; to unearth their own sense of belonging, clarify their values, and align their actions with their unique leadership brand. Through a series of easily actionable practices, this book will be one to pick up again and again to continue to revisit and refine your intentional presence. Leaders of all levels and capabilities are then able to lead themselves and others, finding both their sense of connection and driving it for, instead of at the expense of, others.

Download or read book The Pause written by Julian Jason Haladyn and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2024-05-01 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When COVID-19 spread across the globe, people experienced protection measures such as social distancing, self-isolation, and self-quarantine as a kind of shutting down or putting on hold of life. Many referred to this experience as a pause. Calling attention to the long history of grappling with pausing in writing on plagues and pandemics, Julian Haladyn explores the pause in its social, political, and personal manifestations over the extended pandemic. The schism between the virus and its prohibitions on human engagement with the world produced a crisis, Haladyn argues, in which, for an extended time, it was impossible to imagine a future. The Pause is a cultural inquiry into a moment when human life around the globe seemed to halt, as well as the social symptoms that defined it. The Pause captures the experience of being inside the pandemic, even as that experience continues to unfold. It regards our current situation not for what it may become in the future, but rather as a moment of mass uncertainty and existential hesitation.
