Download or read book Understanding Cultures through Their Key Words written by Anna Wierzbicka and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1997-08-07 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops the dual themes that languages can differ widely in their vocabularies, and are also sensitive indices to the cultures to which they belong. Wierzbicka seeks to demonstrate that every language has "key concepts," expressed in "key words," which reflect the core values of a given culture. She shows that cultures can be revealingly studied, compared, and explained to outsiders through their key concepts, and that the analytical framework necessary for this purpose is provided by the "natural semantic metalanguage," based on lexical universals, that the author and colleagues have developed on the basis of wide-ranging cross-linguistic investigations. Appealing to anthropologists, psychologists, and philosophers as well as linguists, this book demonstrates that cultural patterns can be studied in a verifiable, rigorous, and non-speculative way, on the basis of empirical evidence and in a coherent theoretical framework.
Download or read book Rodzina written by Karen Cushman and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2003-03-20 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rodzina Clara Jadwiga Anastazya Brodski, a strong and stubborn Polish orphan, leaves Chicago on an orphan train, expecting to be adopted and turned into a slave—or worse, not to be adopted at all. As the train rattles westward, she begins to develop attachments to her fellow travelers, even the frosty orphan guardian, and to accept the idea that there might be good homes for orphans—maybe even for a big, combative Polish girl. But no placement seems right for the formidable Rodzina, and she cleverly finds a way out of one unfortunate situation after another until at last she finds the family that is right for her. Like Karen Cushman's other young girl protagonists, Rodzina is trying to find her place in the world—and she does. The compelling narrative is laced with wry humor and keen observation, full of memorable characters, and a thoroughly researched Afterword.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Światowe Spotkanie RodzinFiladelfi a, Pensylwania, 22-27 września 2015 r. „Rodzina, która doświadcza radości wiary, daje temu wyraz w sposób naturalny. Rodzina, to sól ziemi i światło świata; to drożdże życia społecznego”. -- Papież Franciszek, 27 października 2013 r. Światowe Spotkania Rodzin, zapoczątkowane za pontyfi katu św. Jana Pawła II, są radosnym świętem rodziny i wiary obchodzonym co trzy lata. Arcybiskup Filadelfi i Charles J. Chaput powiedział, że spotkanie w roku 2015 „ma być podarunkiem nie tylko dla katolików w Filadelfi i, ale dla wszystkich ludzi dobrej woli na szerokim świecie”. "We are called to acknowledge how beautiful, true and good it is to start a family, to be a family today... We are called to make known God's magnificent plan for the family...as we accompany them amidst so many difficulties." - Pope Francis, February 20, 2014 For Pope Francis, as for his predecessors Saint John Paul II and Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, this is more than just talk. It is a rallying cry. This is the focus of the 2015 World Meeting of Families: Love is Our Mission: The Family Fully Alive. For Catholics everywhere, it is a time to renew our focus on the family, the "domestic church" - what it means, why it's important, how it fits in with God's plan for us, and how we can become who God created us to be. Here is a new, fresh, and insightful way to do just that. In Love is Our Mission, you can easily explore Catholic teaching on marriage, family, sexuality, children, human dignity, and the sanctity of life. It's a guided tour through scripture and 2000 years of Church teaching in which you are awakened to the relationship God wants to have with you, the family, and ultimately the world. Self-reflection or group discussion questions bring the teachings home in a very real and practical way. As Pope Francis has said, we must, "keep before us the beauty of the family and marriage, the greatness of this human reality which is so simple and yet so rich..."

Download or read book Intercultural Variation in Family Research and Theory written by Roma S Hanks and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intercultural Variation in Family Research and Theory sets forth 23 critical reviews in a 2-volume set that document the development of family research and theory in various societies around the world. Focusing on modern research while drawing on the historical roots of theoretical and methodological approaches employed in the study of family, this collection not only increases your knowledge about the status of family research in various countries, but also inspires cross-national research among researchers and scholars. The societies being studied have been grouped by region: Volume I contains the set’s Introduction and contributions from the Far East, the Baltic region, Australia, and South Africa. Volume II covers the Middle East, Western Europe, Scandinavia, and also includes the Index. The materials in these two volumes are the result of the charge given to scholars of 23 societies to review the development of family theory and research in their homelands. Their obligation was to provide an analytic report telling a story from their perspective of reality. The book’s editors now present some of the commonality of experiences and trends of the researchers and interpret country differences and similarities from their writings. Intercultural Variation in Family Research and Theory holds numerous suggestions for your investigations into the family field. You’ll find that the set adds to the body of knowledge on comparative family analysis and raises concerns and issues for future research. The questions anddressed in this book include: how gender of the investigator influences choice of research topics how funding sources shape the research agenda what influence a researcher’s career trajectory has on research topics, methods, and procedures why psychological and sociological frameworks and methodologies are commonly used in family research how political policy influences and dictates theory development and research what to do about the multitude of new questions that inevitably arise from such intercultural research
Download or read book Family in Poland written by Karolina Walancik-Ryba and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2021-07-07 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How has the legal context of the family changed in Poland? Families are by no means monolithic but heterogeneous. They are jagged and dynamic and globalisation has altered their form as well as the perception of family as a fundamental value in Poland over time. In this work the preferred family structures and models of family life by Poles will be explored, as well as the question of how values around family have shifted for Poles. The current legal regulations in Poland in the field of family law will also be debated to determine if they sufficiently support the goals and the function of a family.
