Book Synopsis Beyond Emotions in Language by : Bożena Rozwadowska
Download or read book Beyond Emotions in Language written by Bożena Rozwadowska and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sheds new light on the puzzle of psychological predicates in a cross-linguistic perspective by looking at them from a variety of angles at the interfaces between event structure, lexical and viewpoint aspect, syntax and information structure. The individual chapters focus on Polish and Spanish psych verbs, which manifest new overt contrasts that often remain covert in languages such as English, e.g., aspectual distinctions, the peculiarities of dative constructions, or the role of information structure in determining the word order. One of the main contributions of the book lies in positing a new typology of basic event types enriched with the initial boundary events. Moreover, due attention is devoted to dative experiencers as compared to accusative experiencers. Although couched in the generative tradition, the main insights presented in this collection are theory neutral and may be of interest to linguists of all persuasions.
Book Synopsis Solo Dance in Archaic and Classical Greek Literature by : Sarah Olsen
Download or read book Solo Dance in Archaic and Classical Greek Literature written by Sarah Olsen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-10 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Ancient Greek dance” traditionally evokes images of stately choruses or lively Dionysiac revels – communal acts of performance. This is the first book to look beyond the chorus to the diverse and complex representation of solo dancers in Archaic and Classical Greek literature. It argues that dancing alone signifies transgression and vulnerability in the Greek cultural imagination, as isolation from the chorus marks the separation of the individual from a range of communal social structures. It also demonstrates that the solo dancer is a powerful figure for literary exploration and experimentation, highlighting the importance of the singular dancing body in the articulation of poetic, narrative, and generic interests across Greek literature. Taking a comparative approach and engaging with current work in dance and performance studies, this book reveals the profound literary and cultural importance of the unruly solo dancer in the ancient Greek world.
Book Synopsis Dancing With Loneliness by : José María R. Olaizola SJ
Download or read book Dancing With Loneliness written by José María R. Olaizola SJ and published by Messenger Publications. This book was released on 2023-02-07 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Loneliness and connection are not enemies, rather two facets of everyone’s life. We just need to get to know them. That’s especially true of loneliness, so that, far from being oppressive or a threat, it can become an opportunity or a learning point. Through loneliness we can learn to bond with ourselves and with others. Far from consuming our self-esteem or wearing us out, aloneness can prove an ally in the exciting and complicated battles of life. All we need to do is to discern the heart song of loneliness, so we can learn how to guide our emotions to cope with it. This heart song consists of our acceptance and desire, our lucidity and awareness, our memory and hope, our faith and inner turmoil. All of that is in this book: loneliness and connection. Silence and music.

Book Synopsis Dancing to Learn by : Judith Lynne Hanna
Download or read book Dancing to Learn written by Judith Lynne Hanna and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-11-17 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dancing to Learn: Cognition, Emotion, and Movement explores the rationale for dance as a medium of learning to help engage educators and scientists to explore the underpinnings of dance, and dancers as well as members of the general public who are curious about new ways of comprehending dance. Among policy-makers, teachers, and parents, there is a heightened concern for successful pedagogical strategies. They want to know what can work with learners. This book approaches the subject of learning in, about, and through dance by triangulating knowledge from the arts and humanities, social and behavioral sciences, and cognitive and neurological sciences to challenge dismissive views of the cognitive importance of the physical dance. Insights come from theories and research findings in aesthetics, anthropology, cognitive science, dance, education, feminist theory, linguistics, neuroscience, phenomenology, psychology, and sociology. Using a single theory puts blinders on to other ways of description and analysis. Of course, all knowledge is tentative. Experiments necessarily must focus on a narrow topic and often use a special demographic—university students, and we don’t know the representativeness of case studies.

Book Synopsis Designed for Dancing by : Janet Borgerson
Download or read book Designed for Dancing written by Janet Borgerson and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Americans mamboed in the kitchen, waltzed in the living room, polkaed in the pavilion, and tangoed at the club; with glorious, full-color record cover art. In midcentury America, eager dancers mamboed in the kitchen, waltzed in the living room, Watusied at the nightclub, and polkaed in the pavilion, instructed (and inspired) by dance records. Glorious, full-color record covers encouraged them: Let’s Cha Cha Cha, Dance and Stay Young, Dancing in the Street!, Limbo Party, High Society Twist. In Designed for Dancing, vinyl record aficionados and collectors Janet Borgerson and Jonathan Schroeder examine dance records of the 1950s and 1960s as expressions of midcentury culture, identity, fantasy, and desire. Borgerson and Schroeder begin with the record covers—memorable and striking, but largely designed and created by now-forgotten photographers, scenographers, and illustrators—which were central to the way records were conceived, produced, and promoted. Dancing allowed people to sample aspirational lifestyles, whether at the Plaza or in a smoky Parisian café, and to affirm ancestral identities with Irish, Polish, or Greek folk dancing. Dance records featuring ethnic music of variable authenticity and appropriateness invited consumers to dance in the footsteps of the Other with “hot” Latin music, Afro-Caribbean rhythms, and Hawaiian hulas. Bought at a local supermarket, department store, or record shop, and listened to in the privacy of home, midcentury dance records offered instruction in how to dance, how to dress, how to date, and how to discover cool new music—lessons for harmonizing with the rest of postwar America.
Book Synopsis Table for One by : Brenda Huger Hazel
Download or read book Table for One written by Brenda Huger Hazel and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-07-19 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Definitely a must-read for solo single or single-again, living alone! When was the last time you took you out somewhere really special with "you"? Has there been any time where you made reservations, dressed in your finest, and took "you" out to fine dine, for example? That's right. You in the sole company of you and that's absolutely great! We're not talking narcissism here-an unhealthy obsession with oneself. Quite to the contrary. Imagine being alone with you as your only choice of company, for large portions of time and being absolutely comfortable with it-and you're not an introvert. Table for One, please . . . and thank you! For the hundreds of thousands of individuals who just happen to live alone and also happen to find themselves, at the end of the day, most often alone, this life-changing book may well be the spark that will turn your life around. Reflect on the redemption of aloneness. Get ready to break down the barriers to success and victory often found in subconsciously accepting the many misconceptions that come with being/living alone. This book will dispel many of the myths that have been held through the years regarding what is or is not solo person appropriate. Who made up these rules anyway? Table for One will draw you away from the bondage of certain societal impositions to a brand-new freedom gained from the knowledge that you're not "by" yourself; you're "with" yourself. Find the beginnings of this freedom in the initial chapter "Debunking the Myths of Aloneness," and spend a little extra time on the chapter on "Getting Up from Down." It's a place that's likely to be visited from time to time but using the tools provided, going forward, the visits can be shorter lived. This book is a guide to successfully and victoriously going it alone, claiming your space, and feeling really, really, really good about it! Be sure to engage the thought-provoking "Quiet Time Queries" found at the end of each chapter and allow them to steer you to places within that you have been looking for, perhaps for a very long time. Be transported deeper and deeper into a revelatory premise that can revolutionize your life! Prepare for the paradigm shift toward success and victory by learning how the "going it a loner" undergoes a thinking readjustment from "by myself" to "with myself." You may want to check out the two scripturally-based messages found in in the appendix, adding just the right punch in providing very practical and spiritually-oriented steps for needed changes in our thinking process. Table for One: "Successfully and victoriously going it alone" is one of those books that you'll want to keep nearby to refer to again and again as you make the journey to inner peace with the words "I'm with me."
