This edited volume provides state of the art research on developing areas of Spanish in contact with other languages. This manuscript is unique in its broad yet coherent approach to the study of Spanish in bilingual contexts by investigating current issues in the field through well-designed research and innovative analyses. In addition, this book concludes with research on how languages in contact are reflected in individuals in educational settings as well as insights on how to teach bilinguals raised in contact with English and Spanish.
This manuscript is divided into three major themes that focus on the overall issues of Spanish in bilingual contexts:
1. The first section, titled "Language and Identity," is composed of four chapters that focus on the connection between language and identity in unique settings.
2. The second section of the manuscript is titled "Language and Dialectal Contact" and is composed of six chapters that analyze the dialectal and linguistic changes in languages in contact in a variety of settings.
3. The final section is titled "Language in Educational Settings" and consists of four chapters with a focus on heritage speakers and second language students of Spanish in different classroom settings as well as abroad.
This volume contributes original research in these areas in a way so as to fill valuable gaps in the current knowledge in the field especially in the innovative ways of approaching areas such as teaching heritage learners, understanding diachronic and synchronic dialectal and linguistic changes as well as innovations in language use, and how language contributes to the formation of identity.

Описание: Research into the print culture of late-Qing and Republican China has revealed a vibrant world of print media. Recent studies have also shown that far from being marginalized, religion in modern China enjoyed widespread popularity and in many cases expanded its field of activity. This book explores how religious ideas and practices in modern China were transformed as a result of their engagement with modern print culture.

The Poetics is considered the foundation of Western dramatic and literary theory, and readers interpret Aristotle on the basis of Chapter 13 to claim that Oedipus, with its pity, fear and horrible ending, is the finest type of tragedy. Some specialists, however, discuss Aristotle also stating in Chapter 14 that the happily-ending plays like Cresphontes are the finest, with the type of plays like Oedipus, which involve an agent killing or committing great suffering to a family member and only recognizing the family connection afterwards, being second-best. This passage obviously creates a dilemma. No commentator has ever been able to resolve it to the satisfaction of the profession, and as a result Oedipus maintains its stature. Indeed, the specialist Elizabeth Belfiore recently published ("The Elements of Tragedy," in A Companion to Aristotle, ed. Georgios Anagnostopoulos, 2009) a defense of Oedipus as the best play for Aristotle in spite of the explicit ranking of Chapter 14.
Gregory Scott here demonstrates instead that Aristotle actually means what he says in Chapter 14: Tragoidos, originally "goat-song" or the like, and typically translated misleadingly as "tragedy," really involves for him serious drama primarily about good people, and Aristotle says three times in the book that it can end in misfortune or in fortune. Scott, building on his ground-breaking work from 2003, "Purging the Poetics" (Oxford Studies in Ancient Philosophy) that is reprinted in his Aristotle on Dramatic Musical Composition: The Real Role of Literature, Catharsis, Music and Dance in the POETICS (2nd ed., 2018), resolves the dilemma between Chapters 13 and 14 once and for all, showing that the latter half of Chapter 14 is about tragoidos in general while the earlier text is only about one or two (or a mixture) of the subclasses of tragoidos as given in Chapter 18 and rarely discussed by commentators: "tragedy" of suffering, complex "tragedy," "tragedy" of character, and simple/spectacular "tragedy." The chapters are arbitrary divisions from the Renaissance and the texts must have both come from different original treatises of Aristotle and been assembled badly after his death, or the texts were part of a much larger work, now lost, in which the rest of the theory and the transitions from one topic to another were delineated.
In addition to resolving the perennial dilemma and shining a better light on Aristotle's notion of "tragedy," Scott also explains why the best type of play like Cresphontes is better than the second-best one, when they both have recognition and reversal, the conditions for the best kind of plot for Aristotle. With all of this in place, we can easily detect another dilemma that rarely gets discussed in the ranking of the four types of "tragedy" in Chapter 14: The third best type, which is not problematic in this context, involves an agent who knows someone is a family member and who kills the member anyway; we can easily deduce Medea is an example. However, all known commentators accept that Aristotle speaks of Sophocles' horribly-ending Antigone when he exemplifies the worst of the four types. Yet the reason Aristotle gives for the last-place finish is that Antigone is both apathes, "without suffering," and miaron, "shocking" or "revolting." Scott explains in detail not only that Aristotle must be speaking of Euripides' version of Antigone, which ends happily, but why its last-place ranking results.

This book revolutionizes the 1000-year old tradition that stems from the first commentaries on the Poetics by the Arabic scholars. Aristotle's treatise has always been thought to be about poetic-literary theory, with tragedy being its paradigm. Scott demonstrates, however, that Aristotle (384-322 BCE) employs poiesis not in the way universally assumed until now, as "language in verse" or "poetry," which the sophist Gorgias only coined in 415 BCE. Rather, Aristotle follows Diotima, who in the Symposium of Plato (424-347) explains poiesis as mousike kai metra (typically "'music' and verses"). One reason Aristotle employs the Diotiman and not the Gorgian sense of poiesis is that not one poem exists in the so-called "Poetics"; another reason is that the definition of tragedy includes "music." Scott subsequently demonstrates that Aristotle considers tragedy not to be a species of literature but one of dramatic "musical" theater that also requires dance and spectacle. Chapter 2 includes a revised version of Scott's "The Poetics of Performance: The Necessity of Performance, Spectacle, Music, and Dance in Aristotelian Tragedy" (Cambridge University Press, 1999). The book also supplements his arguments of "Purging the Poetics" (Oxford Studies in Ancient Philosophy, 2003), reprinted as Chapter 5, and provides the additional and seemingly insuperable reasons why Aristotle could not have written the clause with the words catharsis, pity, and fear in the definition of tragedy, as a number of internationally known ancient Greek specialists have already been accepting. One reason is that he defines by "biological division" and catharsis is not only missing from the preliminary divisions but is the only term in the definition not discussed in the entire treatise. A second reason is that catharsis contradicts the goal of tragedy as pleasure, itself indicated many times in the work. A third reason is that Aristotle writes in Chapter 13 that pity and fear do not belong to plots showing a virtuous person going from fortune to misfortune. Including pity and fear in the definition would thus exclude even plays like Antigone or Trojan Women from being tragedies. A fourth reason is that Aristotle says three times that tragoidos (originally "goat-song" but usually translated as "tragedy") can show agents going from misfortune to fortune, and the finest examples in Chapter 14 are the plays not like Oedipus but those ending happily, like Cresphontes, which would have no pity because of Aristotle's requirement of very significant suffering for pity. All of this allows a fresh and better reading of the treatise that even with its fundamental misinterpretations has been the foundation of Western literary, dramatic and artistic theory. VOL 1 includes Plato's and Aristotle's meaning of poiesis as "music-dance and verse" and of rhuthmos often as "dance," not "rhythm"; the importance of dance in the state for both thinkers, along with the proof that Aristotle considers tragedy to be a species of dramatic "musical" art. VOL 2 includes the issues of catharsis, pity, and fear, and a complete rebuttal of the only attempted rigorous reply (by Stephen Halliwell in Between Ecstasy and Truth, 2011) to "Purging the Poetics." Also included is a history of the Poetics; Bibliography; & the Index for both volumes.

Описание: Scholarly interest in print culture and in the study of religion in modern China has increased in recent years, propelled by maturing approaches to the study of cultural history and by a growing recognition that both were important elements of China's recent past. The influence of China in the contemporary world continues to expand, and with it has come an urgent need to understand the processes by which its modern history was made. Issues of religious freedom and of religion's influence on the public sphere continue to be contentious but important subjects of scholarly work, and the role of print and textual media has not dimmed with the advent of electronic communication. This book, Religious Publishing and Print Culture in Modern China1800-2012, speaks to these contemporary and historical issues by bringing to light the important and abiding connections between religious development and modern print culture in China. Bringing together these two subjects has a great deal of potential for producing insights that will appeal to scholars working in a range of fields, from media studies to social historians. Each chapter demonstrates how focusing on the role of publishing among religious groups in modern China generates new insights and raises new questions. They examine how religious actors understood the role of printed texts in religion, dealt with issues of translation and exegesis, produced print media that heralded social and ideological changes, and expressed new self-understandings in their published works. They also address the impact of new technologies, such as mechanized movable type and lithographic presses, in the production and meaning of religious texts. Finally, the chapters identify where religious print culture crossed confessional lines, connecting religious traditions through links of shared textual genres, commercial publishing companies, and the contributions of individual editors and authors. This book thus demonstrates how, in embracing modern print media and building upon their longstanding traditional print cultures, Christian, Buddhist, Daoist, and popular religious groups were developed and defined in modern China. While the chapter authors are specialists in religious traditions, they have made use of recent studies into publishing and print culture, and like many of the subjects of their research, are able to make connections across religious boundaries and link together seemingly discrete traditions.
