Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychology of Unconventional Language: A Dissertation For many years there has been a wide popular interest in the subject of slang and unconventional language generally, as indicated by the number of dictionaries of unconventional words and phrases that have been published. Besides, there have appeared numerous essays on the subject. Among the more important collections of unconventional terms are those cited in the reference list appended to this study. Much of the popular interest in the subject has in the past been due to the question of the relation of slang to the purity of the English language. Again and again a determined stand has been made against the supposed corrupting in uences of slang. On the other hand, it would be easy to collect an anthology in praise of slang. The philological tradition from Bopp and Pott to Whitney and March has been tolerant of change through the unconventional, and the list of those who, either by precept or example or both, have been favorably disposed to the use of popular speech, contains such names as dequincey, Noah Webster, John Hay, Burns, Lowell, Howells, Bret Harte, Balzac, and many others whose names will readily occur to the reader. It is Lowell's view (40) that only from its roots in the living generations of men can a language be re-enforced with fresh vigor for its needs; what may be called a literate dialect grows ever more and more pedantic and foreign, till it becomes at last as unfitting a vehicle for living thought as monkish Latin. True vigor and hardiness of phrase do not pass from page to page, but from man to man. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Collected Works of H L Mencken written by George Jean Nathan and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-20 with total page 977 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Collected Works of H. L. Mencken, coalesced under the meticulous eye of George Jean Nathan, represents a seminal anthology in American literary criticism and social commentary. The collection spans a wide array of themes, from biting satirical critiques of American culture and politics to keen observations on the human condition, all articulated through Menckens famously acerbic wit and Nathans discerning editorial oversight. The diversity in literary stylesranging from essays and prefaces to reviewsserves not only as a testament to Mencken's versatility but also underscores the enduring relevance of his insights into early 20th-century American society. The editors and contributors, Mencken himself and Nathan, stand as colossal figures in American literature and journalism, each bringing a unique but harmoniously aligned perspective to the anthology. Their backgrounds, deeply rooted in the rich soil of the American cultural and literary landscape of the early twentieth century, illuminate the historical and cultural underpinnings of the period. This collection, therefore, acts not only as a repository of Menckens critical legacy but also as a reflection of the broader literary movements and cultural shifts of the era. This anthology is recommended for readers who seek to immerse themselves in the depth and diversity of early 20th-century American thought. Through The Collected Works of H. L. Mencken, one gains unparalleled access to a spectrum of intellectual discourse, encapsulating the spirit of an era defined by its bold criticisms and equally compelling visions for the future. It is an essential read for those who wish to explore the multifaceted insights and the dynamic interplay between Menckens incisive prose and Nathans editorial acumen.
Download or read book The Psychology of Language And Communication written by Geoffrey Beattie and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-04 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This wide-ranging introduction to the psychology of human language use offers a new breadth of approach by breaching conventional disciplinary boundaries with examples and perspectives drawn from many subdisciplines - cognitive and social psychology, psycholinguistics, neuropsychology and sociology. After an exploration of the diverse nature of communication, using examples throughout the animal kingdom, the authors focus on the range of human communicative channels, the nature of human language and the variations occurring between and within societies and cultures. Subsequent chapters cover speech production as a psycholinguistic skill; the coordination of verbal and non-verbal channels; the structure and management of conversations; language perception and comprehension; the cognitive neuropsychology of language, and the development of communicative skills. The book also presents an informative and entertaining historical perspective, and illustrates the fact that insights gained into controversial problems in other fields and at other times can shed light on many of today's most contentious debates in psychology.

Download or read book The Second Handbook of Research on the Psychology of Mathematics Education written by Ángel Gutiérrez and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-23 with total page 571 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its establishment in 1976, PME (The International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education) is serving as a much sought after venue for scientific debate among those at the cutting edge of the field, as well as an engine for the development of research in mathematics education. A wide range of research activities conducted over the last ten years by PME members and their colleagues are documented and critically reviewed in this handbook, released to celebrate the Group’s 40 year anniversary milestone. The book is divided into four main sections: Cognitive aspects of learning and teaching content areas; Cognitive aspects of learning and teaching transverse areas; Social aspects of learning and teaching mathematics; and Professional aspects of teaching mathematics. The selection for each chapter of a team of at least two authors, mostly located in different parts of the world, ensured effective coverage of each field. High quality was further enhanced by the scrupulous review of early chapter drafts by two leaders in the relevant field. The resulting volume with its compilation of the most relevant aspects of research in the field, and its emphasis on trends and future developments, will be a rich and welcome resource for both mature and emerging researchers in mathematics education.
