Book Synopsis A Revolution in Language by : Sophia A. Rosenfeld
Download or read book A Revolution in Language written by Sophia A. Rosenfeld and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2003-08-01 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the relationship between the ideas of the Enlightenment and the culture and ideology of the French Revolution? This book takes up that classic question by concentrating on changing conceptions of language and, especially, signs during the second half of the eighteenth century. The author traces, first, the emergence of a new interest in the possibility of gestural communication within the philosophy, theater, and pedagogy of the last decades of the Old Regime. She then explores the varied uses and significance of a variety of semiotic experiments, including the development of a sign language for the deaf, within the language politics of the Revolution. A Revolution in Language shows not only that many key revolutionary thinkers were unusually preoccupied by questions of language, but also that prevailing assumptions about words and other signs profoundly shaped revolutionaries' efforts to imagine and to institute an ideal polity between 1789 and the start of the new century. This book reveals the links between Enlightenment epistemology and the development of modern French political culture.
Book Synopsis Universal language schemes in England and France 1600-1800 by : James Knowlson
Download or read book Universal language schemes in England and France 1600-1800 written by James Knowlson and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1975-12-15 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries Latin served as an international language for scholars in Europe. Yet as early as the first half of the seventeenth century, scholars, philosophers, and scientists were beginning to turn their attention to the possibility of formulating a totally new universal language. This wide-ranging book focuses upon the role that it was thought an ideal, universal, constructed language would play in the advancement of learning. The first section examines seventeenth-century attempts to establish a universal 'common writing' or, as Bishop Wilkins called it, a 'real character and philosophical language.' This movement involved or interested scientists and philosophers as distinguished as Descartes, Mersenne, Comenius, Newton, Hooke, and Leibniz. The second part of the book follows the same theme through to the final years of the eighteenth century, where the implications of language-building for the progress of knowledge are presented as part of the wider question which so interested French philosophers, that of the influence of signs on thought. The author also includes a chapter tracing the frequent appearance of ideal languages in French and English imaginary voyages, and an appendix on the idea that gestural signs might supply a universal language. This work is intended as a contribution to the history of ideas rather than of linguistics proper, and because it straddles several disciplines, will interest a wide variety of reader. It treats comprehensively a subject that has not previously been adequately dealt with, and should become the standard work in its field.

Book Synopsis Essais de linguistique française et anglaise by : Rostislav Kocourek
Download or read book Essais de linguistique française et anglaise written by Rostislav Kocourek and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2001 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce recueil de 18 essais linguistiques francais et anglais est bilingue: les essais francais sont suivis de resumes anglais, et vice versa. Les essais explorent divers sujets du domaine lexico-semantico-textuel. En voici quelques-uns: formation et semantique lexicale et terminologique (neologie, synonymie, metaphore, definition, motivation); linguistique de textes; comparaison anglais-francais; theorie linguistique (structure, ouvertures lexicales, poststructalisme); linguistique de la langue de specialite et de la terminologie (domaine ou l'auteur a surtout gagne une consideration internationale): descriptions de la langue poetique (metaphores de la pieuvre hugolenne, langue et traductions d'une piece de Shakespieare et Fletcher). La linguistique du recueil est raisonnee plutot que postmoderne, ses analyses sont empiriquement basees sur les textes, adoptant l'approche 'recognitive' plutot que generative. La langue des essais n'est pas formalisee, c'est une langue savante naturelle, claire. le recueil est pourvu de riches bibliographies, et d'index detailles de termes et d'auteurs. This collection of eighteen French and English linguistic essays is bilingual: French essays are followed by English summaries, and vice versa. The topics, while quite varied, belong to the lexico-semantico-textual area of linguistics. Examples of topics dealt with: lexical and terminological formation and semantics (neology, synonymy, metaphor, definition, motivation); text linguistics; English-French comparison; linguistic theory (structure, openness of the lexical system, poststructuralism); linguistics of specialized language and terminology (area in which the author has particularly gained international recognition); descriptions of the poetic language (Hugo's octopus metaphors, language and translations of a play by Shakespeare and Fletcher). The author's linguistics is reason-oriented rather than postmodern, his analysis is empirically based on texts, opting for a 'recognitive' rather than a generative approach. The language of the essays is not formalyzed, it is a clear specialized natural language. The essays are provided with extensive bibliographies and with a detailed index of terms and authors.

Book Synopsis The Descent of Human Sex Ratio at Birth by : Éric Brian
Download or read book The Descent of Human Sex Ratio at Birth written by Éric Brian and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-07-24 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an attempt to renew our links with the oldest traditions of scholarly thinking, but is also a well-tempered reflection on today’s work in objectivization. After a deconstruction of the past and present conditions of scientific understanding of human sex-ratio at birth, the authors propose a reconstruction of the dynamics of the phenomenon based on stochastics. Appendices provide information on the first expression of sex ratio trends, as well as a comparison of Darwin’s treatments of the subject.

Book Synopsis Mathematics Unbound: The Evolution of an International Mathematical Research Community, 1800-1945 by : Karen Hunger Parshall
Download or read book Mathematics Unbound: The Evolution of an International Mathematical Research Community, 1800-1945 written by Karen Hunger Parshall and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2002 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although today's mathematical research community takes its international character very much for granted, this ``global nature'' is relatively recent, having evolved over a period of roughly 150 years-from the beginning of the nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth century. During this time, the practice of mathematics changed from being centered on a collection of disparate national communities to being characterized by an international group of scholars for whom thegoal of mathematical research and cooperation transcended national boundaries. Yet, the development of an international community was far from smooth and involved obstacles such as war, political upheaval, and national rivalries. Until now, this evolution has been largely overlooked by historians andmathematicians alike. This book addresses the issue by bringing together essays by twenty experts in the history of mathematics who have investigated the genesis of today's international mathematical community. This includes not only developments within component national mathematical communities, such as the growth of societies and journals, but also more wide-ranging political, philosophical, linguistic, and pedagogical issues. The resulting volume is essential reading for anyone interestedin the history of modern mathematics. It will be of interest to mathematicians, historians of mathematics, and historians of science in general.
