Download or read book Between Rhyme and Reason written by Stanislav Shvabrin and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2019-05-28 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of such global bestsellers as Lolita and Pale Fire, Vladimir Nabokov (1899-1977) is also one of the most controversial literary translators and translation theorists of modern time. In Between Rhyme and Reason, Stanislav Shvabrin discloses the complexity, nuance, and contradictions behind Nabokov's theory and practice of literalism to reveal how and why translation came to matter to Nabokov so much. Drawing on familiar as well as unknown materials, Shvabrin traces the surprising and largely unknown trajectory of Nabokov's lifelong fascination with translation to demonstrate that, for Nabokov, translation was a form of intellectual communion with his peers across no fewer than six languages. Empowered by Mikhail Bakhtin's insights into the interactive roots of literary creativity, Shvabrin's interpretative chronicle of Nabokov's involvement with translation shows how his dialogic encounters with others in the medium of translation left verbal vestiges on his own creations. Refusing to regard translation as a form of individual expression, Nabokov translated to communicate with his interlocutors, whose words and images continue to reverberate throughout his allusion-rich texts.

Download or read book Rhyme and Reason in Reading and Spelling written by Lynette Bradley and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nursery rhymes have been told to children for centuries. Many people think that they are just meant to make children smile. However, preschool children's awareness of rhyme and alliteration has an important influence on their success in learning to read and to spell. In Rhyme and Reason in Reading and Spelling, the authors explore this causal hypothesis using a new research design of combining longitudinal methods with intervention, and they provide strong evidence to show that there is a positive relationship between recognizing similar sounds, as found in nursery rhymes, and learning to read and to spell. The authors also investigate the relationship of this skill to children's learning difficulties. This is the first volume in the International Academy for Research in Learning Disabilities Monograph series.
Download or read book Sound and Reason written by Sven Hroar Klempe and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-10 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the human mental capacities that are mostly veiled in the use of language yet can be revealed through music activities. In speech, just one word is articulated at the time, whereas in music different pitches sound simultaneously. This conflict demonstrates that rationality must be regarded as relative, as rationality in music may create chaos in speech. Moreover, investigating the role of sound in synesthesia reveals that its aesthetic combinations are related to the human capacity to enjoy different types of harmonies in music. Drawing on new research regarding synesthesia as a more fundamental basis for human cognition, this book brings this a step further by introducing synesthesia as a general metacognitive process, hinting at the aesthetical origin of fundamental logical operations. Bringing together a number of cultural perspectives on music, language, and mathematics, this volume expertly illustrates that music reveals a fundamental system that deeply combines the sensorial and the intellectual human capacities.
Download or read book Rhymes N Reasons The Lyrical Expressions of Bob Marks written by Bob Marks and published by eBooks2go, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-04-19 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In that Rhymes and Reasons are songs, not poems, I’ve left them in the accepted patterns necessary to set them to music. There may be some repetition but rare is the song sang in its entirety without repeating verses or choruses especially, what is now considered the chorus. The earlier songs were primarily AABA or ABAC patterns which were the norm back then. As patterns evolved into the more contemporary verse-chorus mode, I’d suspect that happened because repetition of the chorus allows for more rousing concert finales in which audience might be tempted to sing along.
Download or read book Rhyme Reason written by Alexandria Kaan and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-10-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost twenty years ago I had written a book with the same concept as this one - I am proud to say this version of the book is the first times infinity! The original book was titled "Rhyme and Reason - A Rhyming Book on Rhyming". To summarize, the book is about the concept and use of rhyming - and the fun part about it is that more than half of the book actually rhymes! Along with being a writer, I am also a lyricist, a free-style'er, and a poet. I have taken my over-twenty-years experience within the realm of rhyming and condensed it into a breakdown of what rhyming does and can mean to us as people and how they can help us understand the nature behind words, as they can be seen as people themselves in a way. My chapters include... "Symmetry in Poetry" (an interesting look at visualizing rhymes), "Child Like" (our early-life introduction to rhymes), "Love of Love Poetry" (the romantic nature of rhyming), and "Rhyming's Raison D'être" (a collection of rhyming structures plus some of my own personal song lyrics). We enter a rhyming center where all sounds of words are stored in a scepter - the book you now read the back of is all their intercepter except for the way you choose to interpret 'em. And at the end of reading this... Enter rhythm! I mean, it is a given that we give in to the rhythm givin' rhythms to these rhyming hymns. We see the palm trees and feel a calm breeze as the psalms sing and we know what alms bring... What you hold in your palms ring with a truth that was once understood by a Soothsayer's sweet tooth. As a Master Stenographer and a Poet, I've taken both worlds and used them to strategically break down the very heart of rhyming in all its glory and everything in between. So, enjoy a story that will sing in a scene that you will have seen and are seein'.
Download or read book A Dictionary of Rhyming Slang written by Julian Franklyn and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This re-issue of Julian Franklyn's classic dictionary not only defines these expressions but also explains their origin and history. An introductory essay examines the roots and development of rhyming slang. Although many people assume that rhyming slang is exclusively Cockney, Franklyn illustrates how it is common to Australian and Americn dialects. From the unlikely to the bizarre, the 1,500 entries both entertain and enlighten. Cartoons enliven a reference section which combines linguistic detail and cultural analysis. Whether reading the dictionary from cover to cover, or dipping into it as a reference tool, linguists and students of popular culture will find it the definitive source of information on rhyming slang.
Download or read book Rhyme Reason written by April A. VanApeldorn and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2022-01-05 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A word creates a thought. A thought creates an emotion. An emotion creates an image. The cycle of verbal to visual art. What I found so beautiful about this cycle is that no two people will ever come up with the same image. They may have similar aspects, however, each will be unique to the person who read the word and felt the emotion that created their own image. With this very idea in mind, I decided to collaborate with my very talented mother. I wanted to see my words through the eyes of her emotions. And I must say, it was inspiring to see the words that captured her thought process with each poem. I hope you enjoy this verbal and visual journey as much as we did and reflect upon your own image as you read each poem.
