Download or read book The Grammar of Discourse written by Robert E. Longacre and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In that The Anatomy of Speech Notions (1976) was the precursor to The Grammar of Discourse (1983), this revision embodies a third "edition" of some of the material that is found here. The original intent of the 1976 volume was to construct a hierarchical arrangement of notional categories, which find surface realization in the grammatical constructions of the various languages of the world. The idea was to marshal the categories that every analyst-regardless of theoretical bent-had to take account of as cognitive entities. The volume began with a couple of chapters on what was then popularly known as "case grammar," then expanded upward and downward to include other notional categories on other levels. Chapters on dis course, monologue, and dialogue were buried in the center of the volume. In the 1983 volume, the chapters on monologue and dialogue discourse were moved to the fore of the book and the chapters on case grammar were made less prominent; the volume was then renamed The Grammar of Discourse. The current revision features more clearly than its predecessors the intersection of discourse and pragmatic concerns with grammatical structures on various levels. It retains and expands much of the former material but includes new material reflecting current advances in such topics as salience clines for discourse, rhetorical relations, paragraph structures, transitivity, ergativity, agency hierarchy, and word order typologies.

Download or read book Tell Me Something Good written by Jarrett Earnest and published by David Zwirner Books. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 2000, The Brooklyn Rail has been a platform for artists, academics, critics, poets, and writers in New York and abroad. The monthly journal’s continued appeal is due in large part to its diverse contributors, many of whom bring contrasting and often unexpected opinions to conversations about art and aesthetics. No other publication devotes as much space to the artist’s voice, allowing ideas to unfold and idiosyncrasies to emerge through open discussion. Since its inception, cofounder and artistic director Phong Bui and the Rail’s contributors have interviewed over four hundred artists for The Brooklyn Rail. This volume brings together for the first time a selection of sixty of the most influential and seminal interviews with artists ranging from Richard Serra and Brice Marden, to Alex Da Corte and House of Ladosha. While each interview is important in its own right, offering a perspective on the life and work of a specific artist, collectively they tell the story of a journal that has grown during one of the more diverse and surprising periods in visual art. There is no unified style or perspective; The Brooklyn Rail’s strength lies in its ability to include and champion difference. Selected and coedited by Jarrett Earnest, a frequent Rail contributor, with Lucas Zwirner, the book includes an introduction to the project by Phong Bui as well as many of the hand-drawn portraits he has made of those he has interviewed over the years. This combination of verbal and visual profiles offers a rare and personal insight into contemporary visual culture. Interviews with Vito Acconci, Ai Weiwei, Lynda Benglis, James Bishop, Chris Burden, Vija Celmins, Francesco Clemente, Bruce Conner, Alex Da Corte, Rosalyn Drexler, Keltie Ferris, Simone Forti, Andrea Fraser, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Suzan Frecon, Coco Fusco, Robert Gober, Leon Golub, Ron Gorchov, Michelle Grabner, Josephine Halvorson, Sheila Hicks, David Hockney, Roni Horn, House of Ladosha, Alfredo Jaar, Bill Jensen, Alex Katz, William Kentridge, Matvey Levenstein, Nalini Malani, Brice Marden, Chris Martin, Jonas Mekas, Shirin Neshat, Thomas Nozkowski, Lorraine O’Grady, Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, Joanna Pousette-Dart, Ernesto Pujol, Martin Puryear, Walid Raad, Dorothea Rockburne, Tim Rollins and K.O.S., Robert Ryman, Dana Schutz, Richard Serra, Shahzia Sikander, Nancy Spero, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Sarah Sze, Rirkrit Tiravanija, James Turrell, Richard Tuttle, Luc Tuymans, Kara Walker, Stanley Whitney, Jack Whitten, Yan Pei-Ming, and Lisa Yuskavage Special thanks to Furthermore, a program of the J.M.

Download or read book A Decade In A Year written by Nek Lason and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-02-23 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concludes part 1 of A Decade in a Year. It chronicles the first nine weeks of the pandemic, from March 23, 2020, to May 23, 2020. This event will be looked back upon for the rest of history. It is from a unique perspective--mine, a resident of a Victory Homes International Christian addiction recovery Men's Home. For me, life is like a long car ride. Along the way while at the Home, many people have got in and got out of my car. A few stayed in. A very few. This ride could be a phycologist's dream come true. Personally, as a man right now on this drive, the temperature outside is cooling, and it's nearing mid-fall. The days have gotten shorter, and the leaves on the trees have changed their color. My winter isn't here, but I can feel it now. More and more, I can feel it. In other words and from a young man's perspective, I am close to being old. Lord! How funny and tragic it is that I romanticize my past, forgetting all the negative and ugly things I have done. Am I the only one that does that? How I look back on my spring and summer with such fondness. How fast those seasons came and went. This car I'm in has taken a beating, but the motor runs smooth. Plenty of miles left in it. It's not a used car; it's a car with experience. But something happened a little while ago on this ride. I found a map. It gave me a direction. It showed me the way. I smile now at my previous ignorance as I realize that I had always been driving nowhere. It's both funny and sad. It's been said that if you're going nowhere, any road will get you there. Now to have a map? Well now, that changes everything regardless of the season! Which leads me to a question, Where is the road you're on taking you? Come. Let me tell you about a part of my recent drive. This event in world history called the pandemic. This "decade in a year"--we all lived through it apart and yet together. Come. Remember our common yesterday with me.

Download or read book Lives of Dalhousie University Volume 2 written by P.B. Waite and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1997-05-06 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lives of professors and students, deans and presidents, their ideas and idiosyncrasies, their triumphs and failures, provide the driving force of Waite's narrative. Avoiding the details of financing, curriculum, and administration that sometimes dominate institutional histories, Waite focuses on the men and women who were the blood of the university and who established its traditions and ethos. Halifax in peace and war is basic to Dalhousie's history, as is its relations with other colleges and universities in Nova Scotia. Waite sets all this out, placing Dalhousie's development within the larger Nova Scotian context.

Download or read book Corpora and Cross Linguistic Research written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years there has been increasing interest in the development and use of bilingual and multilingual corpora. As Karin Aijmer writes in this book, 'The contrastive or comparative perspective ... makes it possible to dig deeper and to ask new questions about the relationship between languages with the aim of sharpening our conceptions of cross-linguistic correspondences and adding to our knowledge of the languages compared.' The papers in this volume are a showcase of the great variety of purposes to which bilingual and multilingual corpora can be put. They do not only lend themselves to descriptive and applied approaches, but are also suitable for theory-oriented studies. The range of linguistic phenomena covered by the various approaches is very wide; the papers focus on fields of research like syntax, discourse, semantics, information structure, lexis, and translation studies. The range of languages studied comprises English, Norwegian, Swedish, German, Dutch, and Portuguese. In addition to purely linguistic papers, there are contributions on computer programs developed for the compilation and use of bilingual and multilingual corpora.
