The Texture of Casual Conversation: A Multidimensional Interpretation (Functional Linguistics)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Over the last three decades there has been an ever-increasing interest in the analysis of spoken interaction. Work on casual conversation, which for a time was found to present virtually insuperable problems to the analyst, has now come to occupy as prominent a place as institutional interactions. Many approaches to casual conversation have been partial, and the author`s own seminal publication with Suzanne Eggins, `Analysing Casual Conversation` (1997) was a milestone in demonstrating the value of locating the analysis in a broad framework that was inspired by Halliday`s `Systemic Functional Linguistics`. In this new book, Slade amplifies and extends that earlier work, presenting original case material and expanding on her claim that the `chunks` of genre-based analysis need to be supplemented by the concept of `chat.` She presents a framework and the tools for describing the dynamics of both the macro and the micro structure of conversation as it creates and recreates social… [detailed...]

Ben Levitas
The Theatre of Nation: Irish Drama and Cultural Nationalism 1890-1916 (Oxford Historical Monographs)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionWhat role did the theatre of the Irish literary revival play in the politics of identity so avidly debated in pre-revolutionary Ireland? Conversely, how far did that debate influence the development of the theatre? Ben Levitas pursues such vexed questions through a panoramic study of Irish drama and the nationalist debate 1890-1916. He follow the unfolding drama of that relationship and, in giving equal weight to the protagonists inside and outside the theatre movement, provides fresh insight into the dynamics of Irish cultural politics. Extending the range of the drama beyond the canonical works considered by most critics, and beyond Dublin to the influence of Cork and Ulster, The Theatre of Nation tackles many neglected and forgotten texts which through the circumstances of their reception are given new force. In this way, the lesser lights of the Irish revival illuminate unfamiliar aspects of familiar writers such as W. B. Yeats, Lady Gregory, and J. M. Synge, while… [detailed...]

Martin Esslin
The Theatre of the Absurd

2004 y.
Publisher: Vintage
Description: In 1953, Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot premiered at a tiny avant-garde theatre in Paris, within five years, it had been translated into more than twenty languages and seen by more than a million spectators. Its startling popularity marked the emergence of a new type of theatre whose proponents—Beckett, Ionesco, Genet, Pinter, and others—shattered dramatic conventions and paid scant attention to psychological realism, while highlighting their characters’ inability to understand one another. In 1961, Martin Esslin gave a name to the phenomenon in his groundbreaking study of these playwrights who dramatized the absurdity at the core of the human condition. Over four decades after its initial publication, Esslin’s landmark book has lost none of its freshness. The questions these dramatists raise about the struggle for meaning in a purposeless world are still as incisive and necessary today as they were when Beckett’s tramps first… [detailed...]

The Thebaid : Seven against Thebes (Johns Hopkins New Translations from Antiquity)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description A classical epic of fratricide and war, the Thebaid retells the legendary conflict between the sons of Oedipus -- Polynices and Eteocles -- for control of the city of Thebes. The Latin poet Statius reworks a familiar story fromGreek myth, dramatized long before by Aeschylus in his tragedy Seven against Thebes , Statius chose his subject well: the Rome of his day, ruled by the emperor Domitian, was not too distant from the civil wars that had threatened the survival of the empire. Published in 92 A.D., the Thebaid was an immediate success, and its fame grew in succeeding centuries. It reached its peak of popularity in the later Middle Ages and Renaissance, influencing Dante, Chaucer, and perhaps Shakespeare. In recent times, however, it has received perhaps less attention than it deserves, in large part because there has been no accessible, dynamic translation of the work into English. Charles Stanley Ross offers a compelling version of… [detailed...]

In combining the skills of a distinguished poet, Ruth Fainlight, and an eminent classical scholar, Robert J. Littman, this new edition of the Theban Plays is both a major work of poetry and a faithful translation of the original works.

Description: The theft of the Jules Rimet Trophy in 1966 is one of the most unusual stories in the history of football. The full story of what really happened has never before been told, and those parts that have been told have contained and perpetuated a number of errors. This volume sets out to put the record straight by telling the complete story. It is based on official FIFA and FA files, as well as information drawn from the archives of the German and Brazilian football authorities, police records, complementary newspaper reports, and most importantly, evidence gathered form those involved with the case itself. It presents a factual account not only of the parts that have become public knowledge, but also of the activities that went on away from the glare of publicity and which have never been told in detail before.

Close attention is paid both to the literary form in which the theology is expressed and to the original context to which the book was addressed. Contrary to many misunderstandings of Revelation, it is shown to be one of the masterpieces of early Christian literature, with much to say to the Church today. This study offers a unique account of the theology and message of Revelation. [detailed...]

The Theoretical Practices of Physics: Philosophical Essays

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: R.I.G. Hughes offers an original approach to the philosophical understanding of physics: instead of examining theories, he examines the theoretical practices which physicists use. He starts with a critical study of the accounts that physicists give of their practices, and asks: Given that these practices are successful, what is the nature of their success? Eight of the nine essays are illustrated by case studies of particular episodes in the history of physics. In three essays these case studies are strictly historical, the others deal with physics since 1900. Three essays deal with standard topics in the philosophical literature (laws, explanation, and realism), but here considered from the perspective that an examination of theoretical practice affords. The five essays at the centre of the book all deal with different aspects of modeling in physics. Another examines the discourse of physics, in particular the languages in which physical narratives are told and experimental work is… [detailed...]
