PRAGMATICS

Pragmatics

Jeannette Littlemore, Senior Lecturer in English Language, University of Birmingham, UK

‘...a valuable source of information and inspiration for applied linguists as well as teachers and course developers.’ - Frank Boers, Erasmus University, The Netherlands Cognitive linguistics is a relatively new discipline which is rapidly becoming mainstream and influential, particularly in the area of second language teaching. This book looks at how cognitive linguistics can inform our teaching, and lead to intriguing suggestions for alternative ways of presenting grammar and vocabulary in the language classroom.

Edited by Noel BurtonRoberts, Department of Literature, Language and Linguistics, University of Newcastle, UK

Among the specific topics covered are scalar implicatures, lexical semantics and pragmatics, indexicality, procedural meaning, the semantics and pragmatics of negation. The volume includes both defences and critiques of Relevance Theory and of NeoGricean Pragmatics.

pragmatics

A Hybrid Theory of Metaphor Relevance Theory and Cognitive Linguistics Markus Tendahl, Lecturer, University of Dortmund, Germany

A provoking new approach to how we understand metaphors thoroughly comparing and contrasting the claims made by relevance theorists and cognitive linguists. The resulting hybrid theory shows the complementarity of many positions as well as the need and possibility of achieving a broader and more realistic theory of our understanding.

Palgrave Studies in Pragmatics, Language and Cognition

George Powell, Researcher, Canada

Series Editors: Richard Breheny and Uli Sauerland

How should we analyze the meaning of proper names, indexicals, demonstratives and definite descriptions?

What relation do such expressions stand to the objects they designate or to mental representations of those objects? George Powell casts new light on these and other questions by approaching them from within a cognitive framework.

Palgrave Studies in Pragmatics, Language and Cognition is a series of high quality research monographs and edited collections of essays focusing on the human pragmatic capacity and its interaction with natural language semantics and other faculties of mind development. The series aims to reflect all kinds of research in the relevant fields - conceptual, analytical and experimental.

‘I would recommend reading it to any teacher of English as a foreign language starting out or looking for a cure to feeling burnt out.’ - Kevin Laurence Landry, Linguist List This book was written for language teachers by language teachers, with a view to encouraging readers to use more tasks in their lessons, and to explore for themselves various aspects of task-based teaching and learning. It gives insights into ways in which tasks can be designed, adapted and implemented in a range of teaching contexts and illustrates ways in which tasks and taskbased learning can be investigated as a research activity. Practising language teachers and student professionals on MA TESOL/Applied Linguistics courses will find this a rich resource of varied experience in the classroom and a stimulus to their own qualitative studies.

Empirically validated techniques to accelerate learners’ uptake of ‘chunks’ demonstrate that pathways for insightful chunk-learning become available if one is willing to question the assumption that lexis is arbitrary. Care is taken to ensure that the pedagogical proposals are in accordance with insights from vocabulary research generally.

Politics, Gender and Conceptual Metaphors Edited by Kathleen Ahrens, Professor and Head of the Language Centre, Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong

International researchers examine the interplay between gender and metaphor in political language in the UK, USA, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Ireland, and Singapore.

They draw on a variety of corpus data to determine to what extent conceptual metaphors used by women in political power differ with, or remain the same as that of men.

Approaches to the Individual The Relationship between Internal and External Conversation Athanasia Chalari, Lecturer in Sociology, University of Manchester, UK

This study sees ‘mediation’ as a way of understanding the relationship between internal and external conversation, which underpins how individuals are connected to society. The relationship between these aspects of conversation is crucial in allowing selves to achieve subjectively-defined ‘balance’ between inner and outer worlds.

Globalization and Language in the Spanish Speaking World Macro and Micro Perspectives Edited by Clare MarMolinero, Head, Modern Languages, Centre for Transnational Studies, Modern Languages, School of Humanities, University of Southampton, UK and Miranda Stewart, Senior Lecturer, Department of Languages, University of Strathclyde, UK

This volume considers the spread of Spanish today and particularly its role in the processes of globalization. Spanish is frequently dominant in contact with other languages.

language & identity • communication

The Sociology of Language and Religion Change, Conflict and Accommodation Edited by Tope Omoniyi, Professor of Sociolinguistics, Roehampton University, UK

The concepts of change, conflict and accommodation have been addressed in other subdisciplines of linguistics such as socialpsychology of language, traditional sociolinguistics and ethnography of communication. Therefore the capacity to engage with these concepts must be a test of this emergent field of scholarship. The essays in the volume demonstrate beyond all doubt that the sociology of language and religion is able to respond in creative ways to the issues that these three concepts uncover.
