Book excerpt: THE 30th ANNIVERSARY EDITION WITH NEW, NEVER-BEFORE-PUBLISHED MATERIAL After the Internet, what came next? Enter the Metaverse - cyberspace home to avatars and software daemons, where anything and just about everything goes. Newly available on the Street - the Metaverse's main drag - is Snow Crash. A cyberdrug that reduces avatars in the digital world to dust, but also infects users in real life, leaving them in a vegetative state. This is bad news for Hiro, a freelance hacker and the Metaverse's best swordfighter, and mouthy skateboard courier Y. T.. Together, investigating the Infocalypse, they trace back the roots of language itself to an ancient Sumerian priesthood and find they must race to stop a shadowy virtual villain hell-bent on world domination. In this special edition of the remarkably prescient modern classic, Neal Stephenson explores linguistics, computer science, politics and philosophy in the form of a break-neck adventure into the fast-approaching yet eerily recognizable future.

Download or read book Nineteenth Century Perspectives on Private International Law written by Roxana Banu and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-19 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Private International Law is often criticized for failing to curb private power in the transnational realm. The field appears disinterested or powerless in addressing global economic and social inequality. Scholars have frequently blamed this failure on the separation between private and public international law at the end of the nineteenth century and on private international law's increasing alignment with private law. Through a contextual historical analysis, Roxana Banu questions these premises. By reviewing a broad range of scholarship from six jurisdictions (the United States, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy, and the Netherlands) she shows that far from injecting an impetus for social justice, the alignment between private and public international law introduced much of private international law's formalism and neutrality. She also uncovers various nineteenth century private law theories that portrayed a social, relationally constituted image of the transnational agent, thus contesting both individualistic and state-centric premises for regulating cross-border inter-personal relations. Overall, this study argues that the inherited shortcomings of contemporary private international law stem more from the incorporation of nineteenth century theories of sovereignty and state rights than from theoretical premises of private law. In turn, by reconsidering the relational premises of the nineteenth century private law perspectives discussed in this book, Banu contends that private international law could take centre stage in efforts to increase social and economic equality by fostering individual agency and social responsibility in the transnational realm.
Download or read book Essays toward a history of linguistic theories written by Sylvain Auroux and published by Presses Univ. Septentrion. This book was released on 1984 with total page 708 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce volume est l'aboutissement des actes d'un colloque international tenu à Lille en 1982. Son titre est explicite: il ne s'agit pas d'une histoire pointilliste, événementielle des avatars de la linguistique ou de la vie des linguistes mais bien d'une réflexion collective sur ce qu'a été, ce qu'est, ce que pourrait être, une théorie linguistique dans ses rapports avec son époque, ses auteurs, ses récepteurs et les autres théories auxquelles elle fait écho ou auxquelles elle répond. C'est ce qui a déterminé la composition du volume: il comporte sept parties qui regroupent les communications selon leurs thèmes d'intérêt:1- Méthodologie2- Période héllénistique et romaine3- Moyen Age (ce qui de loin est la période la plus intérssante et qui n'a été que récemment découverte)4- La Renaissance et l'âge classique5- Les Lumières (qui fait le point sur les nombreux travaux récents qui ont été consacrés à cette période et qui ajoute de précieuses contributions)6- XIXe et XXe siècles (périodes encore mal connues ou trop proches pour qu'on ose en parler)7- Histoire et méthodologie (section qui tente de faire le point sur les rapports entre logique, langage, sociologie, philosophie.)Aucun ouvrage actuel de linguistique ne peut prétendre être une somme, non plus qu'un synthèse. Celui-ci, dont les participants appartiennent à toutes les écoles linguistiques, ou se défendent de relever d'une quelconque obédience, n'a pas non plus ces prétentions: il se veut simplement outil d'information, objet de discussion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Foundations of Pragmatism in American Thought Series offers two sets of volumes containing the most significant defenses and critiques of pragmatism written before World War I: the Early Defenders of Pragmatism and Early Critics of Pragmatism. This, the first collection, Early Defenders, provides key texts for understanding the context of pragmatism's years of greatest vitality. The early defenders were products of pragmatism's three cradles. H. Heath Bawden was a graduate of the Chicago philosophy department, having studied with John Dewey and George Mead. John E. Boodin and Horace M. Kallen earned their Ph.Ds with William James and Josiah Royce at Harvard. D. L. Murray and Howard V. Knox were independent scholars and writers inspired by F. C. S. Schiller's humanistic pragmatism at Oxford. This collection brings together the central texts of the movement along with a representative selection of the secondary texts, reviews and responses, they elicited. Each volume features a newly-commissioned introduction by a leading scholar of American pragmatism. --five central texts reproduced in facsimile, accompanied by the main responses and replies, reset in new typography --scattered and scarce works available together for the first time --new introductions to each volume by leading scholars of American pragmatism
