This book deals with the expression of emotions in Igala – a Nigerian minority language with about two million speakers – from a Cognitive Linguistics perspective. The author investigates the network of the Igala language of emotions using the Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) framework as developed by Anna Wierzbicka and her collaborators. The claims of adequacy of NSM in its present form for the analysis of emotion concepts universally will be challenged. This is due to the way emotions are conceptualized in the Igala language and due to the absence of certain semantic primes which are considered necessary for the analysis of emotions.Therefore, this study presents a testing ground for further development of the framework as well as a peek into research in African languages.

Описание: En este libro se presenta un pormenorizado examen de las caracteristicas lexicologicas y diatopicas de las designaciones de algunos conceptos corporales. Se analizan, particularmente, los nombres de los cinco dedos de la mano que aparecen representados en la geografia linguistica hispanorromance. El analisis de los atlas linguisticos se acomete desde una perspectiva multidisciplinar, pues se estudian los procedimientos que originan la variacion linguistica en su contexto geografico a partir de la aplicacion de algunos postulados de la semantica cognitiva y la cartografia motivacional. Esta investigacion ofrece una novedosa metodologia de analisis de los datos geolinguisticos extrapolable a otros ambitos semanticos y contribuye, por un lado, a completar el vacio de estudios sobre el lexico del cuerpo humano en la geografia linguistica romanica y, por el otro, a la singularizacion del modo en el que se categorizan y denominan las partes del cuerpo humano.
Автор: Marcin Kudla Название: A Study of «Attributive Ethnonyms» in the History of English with Special Reference to «Foodsemy» ISBN: 3631665636 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783631665633 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 82810.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The author studies ethnic stereotypes in the history of English from the perspective of Cognitive Linguistics. He views an ethnic stereotype as an idealised cognitive model (ICM) which consists of a cluster of metonymic submodels (such as BODY, CUISINE, NAME, etc.). Each submodel may trigger the formation of an attributive ethnonym, which ascribes some attribute to the target group. While such terms are mostly derogatory, context plays a crucial role in their perception. The analysis proper focuses on foodsemic ethnonyms (most of which activate the submodel of CUISINE). Out of 168 items, above 50% follow the «FOODSTUFF FOR ETHNIC GROUP» or «FOODSTUFF EATER FOR ETHNIC GROUP» metonymy. Most examples come from Am.E., with Mexicans being the most frequently described target group.
Автор: Julia Schultz Название: Twentieth-Century Borrowings from German to English: Their Semantic Integration and Contextual Usage ISBN: 3631675135 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783631675137 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 92290.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: While there are plenty of studies on the impact English has exerted on the German language, the reverse contact situation has been relatively neglected. This monograph sets out to shed light on the German influence on the English lexicon in the twentieth century. It provides the first systematic appraisal of the semantic integration and contextual usage of the words adopted from German in the past few decades. The results presented in this study are based on the evaluation of a comprehensive lexicographical corpus of 1958 twentieth century German borrowings retrieved from the Oxford English Dictionary Online. The present-day usage of the borrowings is illustrated with linguistic documentary evidence collected from a wide range of English language corpora.
Автор: Larsen, Marianne Название: Foreigners, auslaender, extranjeros ISBN: 3034314965 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783034314961 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 77390.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The book investigates the European debate on culture and identity by pointing to those uses of language that shape the image and perception of migrants in host societies. The term ‘foreigner’ is highly sensitive to changes experienced by communities. Its meanings transcend its traditional semantic scope and lead to the discussion of notions such as nation, nationality, immigration, integration, citizenship, nationalism and multiculturalism. The words ‘foreigner’, ‘Ausl?nder’, ‘extranjero’ and the network of related terms are discussed from a multidisciplinary approach with the aim of identifying the core features of the concept of ‘foreignness’ in German, Spanish and English. Dieses Buch untersucht die europ?ische Diskussion ?ber Kultur und Identit?t. Im Zentrum steht dabei derjenige Sprachgebrauch, der das Bild und die Wahrnehmung hinsichtlich der Migranten in den Gastgeberl?ndern pr?gt. Bei gesellschaftlichen Ver?nderungen wandelt sich auch der Gehalt des Begriffs «Ausl?nder». Seine Bedeutung geht ?ber den traditionellen semantischen Rahmen hinaus und f?hrt zur Diskussion ?ber Konzepte wie Nation, Nationalit?t, Migration, Integration, B?rgerschaft, Nationalismus und Multikulturalit?t. Die W?rter ‚foreigner‘, ‚Ausl?nder‘, ‚extranjero‘ und deren semantisches Umfeld werden fach?bergreifend behandelt, um die Grundmerkmale des Begriffs ‚Fremdartigkeit‘ auf Deutsch, Englisch und Spanisch zu identifizieren.
Автор: Soneira, Begona Название: Lexical description of english for architecture ISBN: 303431602X ISBN-13(EAN): 9783034316026 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 93670.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book offers a thorough lexical description of an English for Specific Purposes (ESP) variety, English for Architecture, by means of a selfmade corpus. As other knowledge communities, Architecture practitioners have a distinctive discourse and a linguistic identity of their own. Both are conveyed through specific linguistic realizations, and are of considerable interest in the field of ESP. The corpus used was designed for the purpose of describing and analyzing the main lexical features of Architecture Discourse from three different perspectives: word-formation, loanword neology and semantic neology, which are the three main foundations of lexis. In order to analyze all materials a database of almost three thousand entries was produced, including a description and classification of every word from the corpus considered relevant for the analysis. Thanks to this methodology the lexical character of Architecture language is ultimately revealed in connection with the linguistic identity of its practitioners.

Название: From conceptual metaphor theory to cognitive ethnolinguistics ISBN: 3631627807 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783631627808 Издательство: Peter Lang Рейтинг: Цена: 78710.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The origins of this volume lie in the international conference Cognitive Linguistics in the Year 2012, convened by the Polish Cognitive Linguistics Association. The proceedings of the conference revolved around three major thematic areas: metaphorical and metonymic underpinnings of meaning in language and beyond, prototypical and gradual phenomena pertaining to linguistic categorization across the lexicogrammatical continuum, and the need for advancing theoretical tools. These recurring themes are reflected in the three-part structure of this volume, with contributions from nearly two dozen researchers exploring a broad array of linguistic as well as non-linguistic data.
