Описание: The recent multilingual turn involves various different implicit and explicit language policies, urging pressure and resistance with regard to the spread of English and its dominant relationships with other national languages. As such, this book considers the social value of communication as the basis of multilingualism and of the evolution of language systems.The data presented here show English as being in the middle of the double “listening” of cultural mediation and the imperfect “magnifying” glass of translation, with worldwide Standard English being but one of the many other related varieties which enjoy prestige on a large scale. These varieties may be identified according to different features which make the plural “world Englishes” an umbrella term with blurred edges.New approaches to dialects study have been developed in recent decades, and cartographic mapping has overlapped with the emergence of a new dialectology which deals with the description of language phenomena as complex concepts, where “complexity” provides a challenging framework for investigation and research of languages as dynamic systems made up of variables which mutually influence each other. Thus, dialectometry, dialectology and standardization become interesting tools for measuring linguistic differences, establishing language typologies and endorsing the systemic characteristics which can be formalized. Comprehensive and well-informed, this volume will appeal to anyone interested in the spread of English, from researchers and teachers to students, providing them with a greater understanding of some examples of world Englishes analysed under the light of complexity as a product of global society.

Описание: An unusual and unorthodox anthology of essays by leading thinkers and writers, new and young researchers,A Multilingual Nation: Translation and Language Dynamics in Indiawill not let us go back to thinking about translation and language quite the same way. Is there only one Hindi, one Marathi, and is it even possible to comfortably suggest that there is one source language? Shaking the institution of both language and translation, this anthology overturnsthe principles of translation in the West, and provocatively argues that translation is not a `solution` to the allegedly chaotic situation of many languages, rather its inherent and inalienable part.
Название: Multilingual Europe, Multilingual Europeans ISBN: 9042035285 ISBN-13(EAN): 9789042035287 Издательство: Brill Рейтинг: Цена: 120870.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Multilingualism is a crucial if often unrecognized marker of new European identities. In this collection of essays, we observe how a plurilinguist and pluricultural political entity practices and theorizes multilingualism. We ask which types of multilingualism are defined, encouraged or discouraged at the level of official policies, but also at the level of communities. We look at speakers of hegemonic or minority languages, at travellers and long-term migrants or their children, and analyse how their conversations are represented in official documents, visual art, cinema, literature and popular culture.The volume is divided into two parts that focus respectively on “Multilingual Europe” and “Multilingual Europeans.” The first series of chapters explore the extent to which multilingualism is treated as both a challenge and an asset by the European Union, examine which factors contribute to the proliferation of languages: globalisation, the enlargement of the European Union and EU language policies. The second part of the volume concentrates on the ways in which cultural productions represent the linguistic practices of Europeans in a way that emphasizes the impossibility to separate language from culture, nationality, but also class, ethnicity or gender. The chapters suggest that each form of plurilingualism needs to be carefully analysed rather than celebrated or condemned.

Описание: Christian metal has always defined itself in contrast to its non-Christian, secular counterpart, yet it stands out from nearly all other forms of contemporary Christian music through its unreserved use of metal’s main musical, visual, and aesthetic traits. Christian metal is a rare example of a direct combination between evangelical Christianity and an aggressive and highly controversial form of popular music and its culture. Christian Metal: History, Ideology, Scene is the first full exploration of the phenomenon of Christian metal music, its history, main characteristics, development, diversification, and key ideological traits from its formative years in the early 1980s to the present day. Marcus Moberg situates it in a wider international evangelical cultural environment, accounts for its diffusion on a transnational scale, and explores what religious meanings and functions Christian metal holds for its own musicians and followers. Engaging with wider debates on religion, media and popular culture, Christian Metal: History, Ideology and Scene is a much-needed resource in the study of religion and popular music.

This book defines the key ideas, scholarly debates, and research activities that have contributed to the formation of the international and interdisciplinary field of Metal Studies. Drawing on insights from a wide range of disciplines including popular music, cultural studies, sociology, anthropology, philosophy, and ethics, this volume offers new and innovative research on metal musicology, global/local scenes studies, fandom, gender and metal identity, metal media, and commerce. Offering a wide-ranging focus on bands, scenes, periods, and sounds, contributors explore topics such as the riff-based song writing of classic heavy metal bands and their modern equivalents, and the musical-aesthetics of Grindcore, Doom metal, Death metal, and Progressive metal. They interrogate production technologies, sound engineering, album artwork and band promotion, logos and merchandising, t-shirt and jewellery design, and fan communities that define the global metal music economy and subcultural scene. The volume explores how the new academic discipline of metal studies was formed, also looking forward to the future of metal music and its relationship to metal scholarship and fandom. With an international range of contributors, this volume will appeal to scholars of popular music, cultural studies, and sociology, as well as those interested in metal communities around the world.

Описание: Ian Fraser Kilmister (24 December 1945 28 December 2015) known to the world as Lemmy was more than just the driving force of Motorhead. Renowned for his skills as a raconteur and philosopher, he was first and foremost a musician and innovator whose love of music led to his involvement in numerous projects beyond the scope of the band he formed in 1975. Hawkwind and Motorhead fan Alan Burridge had the idea to produce a fanzine about Motorhead in the summer of 1979. A few months later he encountered Lemmy, Fast Eddie Clarke and Philthy Animal Taylor four times on the Bomber tour and the resulting interviews and gig reviews formed the basis of the first Motorheadbangers fanzine in January 1980. Three years later Lemmy asked Alan to integrate the fanzine with the Motorheadbangers fan club which had until then been organised by Phils sister Helen and their father John. Alan took this on and has run it to the present day, with over 100 Motorheadbangers fanzines to his credit. In addition, he has also written several other books about his beloved Motorhead. Wholly immersed in all things related to Motorhead, Alan began listing and hunting down all of Lemmys extra-curricular activities. In Collateral Damage he focuses the spotlight on the bands and projects in Lemmys life, before and parallel to Motorhead, cataloguing his appearances on film, TV, album tracks, singles and downloads. Given Lemmys sad passing on December 28th 2015 Collateral Damage is a true celebration of life beyond Motorhead. The book does contain a handwritten foreword by Lemmy Kilmister from Motorheads last ever live appearance in Berlin, Germany, on December 11th 2015.
