Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Yeo: Musings Series One and Series Two available as a set hereGeorge Yeo: Musings (In 3 Volumes) available as a set hereOver sessions which lasted two to three hours each time, every week for half a year, George Yeo met and mused over a wide range of topics with writer Woon Tai Ho and research assistant Keith Yap. Speaking from notes, he began with himself and his hope for Singapore, and then spanned over a wide range of subjects — from the importance of human diversity and Singapore's reflection within itself of the world, to history, politics, economics, philosophy, taijigong and religion. He gives his views on India, China, ASEAN, Europe, the US and other parts of the world, and how Singapore's history and destiny are connected to all of them. The style is conversational and anecdotal.George Yeo: Musings is exactly that — musings. Some themes recur throughout the book which reflect his view of life. But there is no grand theory. He does not expect all of his reflections to be of interest to everyone, but he hopes that everyone will find something of interest.This is the second of a three-part series.

Download or read book Lifespan Acquisition and Language Change written by Israel Sanz-Sánchez and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2024-04-15 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume connects the latest research on language acquisition across the lifespan with the explanation of language change in specific sociohistorical settings. This conversation benefits from recent advances in two areas: on the one hand, the study of how learners of various ages and in various sociolinguistic contexts acquire language variation; on the other, historical sociolinguistics as the field that focuses on the study of historical patterns of language variation and change. The overarching rationale for this interdisciplinary dialogue is that all forms of language change start and spread as the result of individual acts of acquisition throughout the speakers’ lives. The thirteen chapters in this book are authored by an international group of both established and emerging scholars. They encompass theoretical overviews of specific research areas within the broader realm of the acquisition of language variation, as well as case studies applying these theoretical advances to the exploration of language change in a wide range of sociohistorical contexts in the Americas, Oceania, and Asia. This volume will be of interest to students and researchers in the area of language acquisition, language variation and language change, especially those working on interdisciplinary and crosslinguistic connections among these areas.

Download or read book Enduring Violence written by Cecilia Menjívar and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on revealing, in-depth interviews, Cecilia Menjívar investigates the role that violence plays in the lives of Ladina women in eastern Guatemala, a little-visited and little-studied region. While much has been written on the subject of political violence in Guatemala, Menjívar turns to a different form of suffering—the violence embedded in institutions and in everyday life so familiar and routine that it is often not recognized as such. Rather than painting Guatemala (or even Latin America) as having a cultural propensity for normalizing and accepting violence, Menjívar aims to develop an approach to examining structures of violence—profound inequality, exploitation and poverty, and gender ideologies that position women in vulnerable situations— grounded in women’s experiences. In this way, her study provides a glimpse into the root causes of the increasing wave of feminicide in Guatemala, as well as in other Latin American countries, and offers observations relevant for understanding violence against women around the world today.
Download or read book Shammoo of the North written by Émile Boujardo and published by Leo de Oliveira. This book was released on 2014-11-18 with total page 1290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shammoo is a carefree young polar bear who, one day, encounters an old and dying Inuit out on the tundra. After sharing the latter's excellent provisions and remaining few hours of life, Shammoo rounds off the acquaintance by feasting on his late friend's remains. In retribution, the Inuit's relatives demand a vendetta against the bear. Thus, Shammoo is driven out of his ancestral lands, and embarks on a giant iceberg in a desperate attempt to gain the shores of the fabled lucky iceberg, aka Australia, where he plans to begin a new life as a refugee. Unfortunately, a small but critical error in navigation lands him on the adjacent continental landmass of B'gandia, aka the lucky paddock. After passing the country's stringent immigration requirements, Shammoo makes the acquaintance of a succession of individuals that lead him to question whether the lucky paddock is indeed deserving of its cheerful sobriquet. This tale of innocence corrupted, of obsession and unnatural appetites, Shammoo of the North is a riveting drama, exploring rage, hope, destiny, and the deepest questions of moral truth, as well as issues of vital importance to the environment. This is truly a book with a message, suitable for reading on the porcelain throne. Please recycle.
