This book was released on with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jedná se o třetí – a poslední – svazek kritické edice sebraných spisů Ivana Poldaufa (1915–1984), významného českého lingvisty, anglisty, bohemisty a lexikografa, zakladatele anglistiky na FF UP v Olomouci (působil zde v letech 1949–1961) a později profesora Karlovy Univerzity. Zatímco první dva svazky Poldaufových Sebraných spisů (vydané stejným kolektivem autorů v r. 2016 a 2018) zahrnovaly jeho česky psané práce lingvistické, lexikografické s obecně lingvistickým přesahem a úvahy o stavu jazykovědy, doposud dostupné pouze na stránkách českých lingvistických časopisů a sborníků z konferencí, třetí svazek se zaměřuje na jeho práce psané anglicky, které podobně jako jeho česky psané práce nejsou nikde jinde dostupné v ucelené podobě. Třetí svazek tak kromě české lingvistické obce může oslovit i mezinárodní publikum. K tomuto účelu práce zahrnuje anglicky psaný úvod, který představí osobnost I. Poldaufa. This monograph is the third and last volume of the critical edition of the linguistic papers of Ivan Poldauf, a prominent Czech linguist and lexicographer, the founder of English Studies at Palacký University Olomouc, and later a professor at Charles University in Prague. Ivan Poldauf (15 September 1915 – 9 August 1984) was an Anglicist and a Bohemist whose scope of interests was incredibly broad, ranging from theoretical linguistics (his works cover all levels of language representation) to applied linguistics. The third volume comprises his works published in English, covering 34 years of his career between 1950 and 1984.
Book Synopsis Corpus, Cognition and Causative Constructions by : Gaëtanelle Gilquin
Download or read book Corpus, Cognition and Causative Constructions written by Gaëtanelle Gilquin and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03-24 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English causative constructions with cause, get, have and make are often mistakenly presented as (quasi-)synonymous and more or less interchangeable. This book demonstrates the value of corpus linguistics in identifying the syntactic, semantic, lexical and stylistic features that are distinctive for each of these constructions. It also underlines the usefulness of providing corpus studies with a solid theoretical foundation by showing how corpus linguistics can be fruitfully combined with cognitive linguistics, which is used both as a starting point for the analysis (top-down approach) and as a framework within which to interpret the corpus results (bottom-up approach). From a methodological point of view, the study illustrates the complementarity of corpus and elicitation data, and offers tools and methods that could be used to investigate other syntactic structures. Finally, the book also has a pedagogical dimension in that it examines how the research findings can be applied to foreign language teaching.

Book Synopsis Corpus-based Approaches to Construction Grammar by : Jiyoung Yoon
Download or read book Corpus-based Approaches to Construction Grammar written by Jiyoung Yoon and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-09-08 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together empirical Construction Grammar studies to (i) promote cross-fertilization between researchers interested in constructional approaches on various languages, and (ii) further the growing trend towards empirically rigorous research that takes seriously a commitment not only to usage-based theories, but also to usage-based methodologies. Accordingly, the chapters in this volume comprise a range of studies not based on synchronic contemporary English but include Dutch, old English, Italian, and Spanish. This volume also features studies from a wider range of statistical sophistication: some chapters use more traditional frequency- and attestation-based approaches, some chapters use inferential statistical techniques to explore lexically specific preferences and patterns in constructional slots, and some chapters use multifactorial hypothesis-testing techniques or multivariate exploratory tools to discover patterns in corpus data that a mere eye-balling or simple statistical tools would not uncover.
Book Synopsis Corpora, Constructions, New Englishes by : Samantha Laporte
Download or read book Corpora, Constructions, New Englishes written by Samantha Laporte and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes an integrated approach to the fields of Corpus Linguistics, Construction Grammar, and World Englishes through a thorough constructional and corpus-based examination of the patterning of the versatile high-frequency verb make in British English and New Englishes. It contributes to Construction Grammar theory by adopting a verb-based, rather than construction-based, perspective on argument structure. This allows the probing of the interface between verb-independent generalizations and item-specificity from an underexplored angle that offers new insights into the shape of the constructicon. From a variationist perspective, it seeks to (i) identify features of New Englishes and gauge whether these features exhibit traces of conventionalization, and (ii) assess whether the degree of institutionalization of the New Englishes correlates with linguistic behavior, both from a social and cognitive perspective, thereby contributing to the budding effort to integrate the cognitive and social dimensions into the modeling of linguistic variation in World Englishes.
Book Synopsis How to do Linguistics with R by : Natalia Levshina
Download or read book How to do Linguistics with R written by Natalia Levshina and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2015-11-25 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a linguist with a statistical toolkit for exploration and analysis of linguistic data. It employs R, a free software environment for statistical computing, which is increasingly popular among linguists. How to do Linguistics with R: Data exploration and statistical analysis is unique in its scope, as it covers a wide range of classical and cutting-edge statistical methods, including different flavours of regression analysis and ANOVA, random forests and conditional inference trees, as well as specific linguistic approaches, among which are Behavioural Profiles, Vector Space Models and various measures of association between words and constructions. The statistical topics are presented comprehensively, but without too much technical detail, and illustrated with linguistic case studies that answer non-trivial research questions. The book also demonstrates how to visualize linguistic data with the help of attractive informative graphs, including the popular ggplot2 system and Google visualization tools. This book has a companion website: http://doi.org/10.1075/z.195.website

Book Synopsis English Discourse Particles by : Karin Aijmer
Download or read book English Discourse Particles written by Karin Aijmer and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are few aspects of language which are more problematic than its discourse particles. The present study of discourse particles draws upon data from the London-Lund Corpus to show how the methods and tools of corpora can sharpen their description. The first part of the book provides a picture of the state of the art in discourse particle studies and introduces the theory and methodology for the analysis in the second part of the book. Discourse particles are analysed as elements which have been grammaticalised and as a result have certain properties and uses. The importance of linguistic and contextual cues such as text type, position in the discourse, prosody and collocation for analysing discourse particles is illustrated. The following chapters deal with specific discourse particles (now, oh, just, sort of, and that sort of thing, actually) on the basis of their empirical analysis in the London-Lund Corpus. Examples and extended extracts from many different text types are provided to illustrate what discourse particles are doing in discourse.
