Book Synopsis Language and the Sexes by : Francine Harriet Wattman Frank
Download or read book Language and the Sexes written by Francine Harriet Wattman Frank and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1983-01-01 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Back Cover: In a highly readable and lively text, the authors explore the way language mirrors our cultural assumptions, especially those concerned with gender distinctions. Focusing on contemporary issues, they draw on their knowledge of sociolinguistics and other languages to illustrate how sexism may be hidden by habits of language. In making the reader aware of these, they suggest options for change. Language And The Sexes synthesizes a wide range of up-to-date information and research under several topics: naming, stereotypes of language behavior, the politics of conversation, forms of address, asymmetry in vocabulary, and possibilities of reform. The book concludes with suggested projects related to these topics, guidelines for non-discriminatory language use, and an extensive bibliography.

Book Synopsis Linguistics, Literature and Culture by : Shakila Abdul Manan
Download or read book Linguistics, Literature and Culture written by Shakila Abdul Manan and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2012-12-05 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents the changing realities in the fields of linguistics, literature and culture in Asia, resulting from globalization, modernisation and rapid technological development. It consists of sixteen essays by academics and researchers around the world, reflecting on the interface between the global and the local, and its impact on the local and regional languages, literatures and cultures of Asia. This scenario, which exemplifies language contact in action, is captured by the book mainly to demonstrate that linguistic negotiations, appropriations and indeed changes are not one-way. As such, their implications on language use, language choice, language policy and planning, literacy and pedagogy, identity, subjectivity and culture need to be closely examined. The uniqueness of this book lies in its attempt to showcase original research in a variety of multicultural settings. Its multi- and cross-disciplinary approach will appeal to a wide spectrum of readers from diverse backgrounds. This book will serve as a useful reference that is both scholarly and informative for researchers as well as academics in the fields of linguistics, literature and culture.

Book Synopsis Handbook of Research on Cultivating Literacy in Diverse and Multilingual Classrooms by : Neokleous, Georgios
Download or read book Handbook of Research on Cultivating Literacy in Diverse and Multilingual Classrooms written by Neokleous, Georgios and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2020-03-27 with total page 767 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literacy has traditionally been associated with the linguistic and functional ability to read and write. Although literacy, as a fundamental issue in education, has received abundant attention in the last few decades, most publications to date have focused on monolingual classrooms. Language teacher educators have a responsibility to prepare teachers to be culturally responsive and flexible so they can adapt to the range of settings and variety of learners they will encounter in their careers while also bravely questioning the assumptions they are encountering about multilingual literacy development and instruction. The Handbook of Research on Cultivating Literacy in Diverse and Multilingual Classrooms is an essential scholarly publication that explores the multifaceted nature of literacy development across the lifespan in a range of multilingual contexts. Recognizing that literacy instruction in contemporary language classrooms serving diverse student populations must go beyond developing reading and writing abilities, this book sets out to explore a wide range of literacy dimensions. It offers unique perspectives through a critical reflection on issues related to power, ownership, identity, and the social construction of literacy in multilingual societies. As a resource for use in language teacher preparation programs globally, this book will provide a range of theoretical and practical perspectives while creating space for pre- and in-service teachers to grapple with the ideas in light of their respective contexts. The book will also provide valuable insights to instructional designers, curriculum developers, linguists, professionals, academicians, administrators, researchers, and students.

Book Synopsis Engendering Difference by : Vesna Kondrič Horvat
Download or read book Engendering Difference written by Vesna Kondrič Horvat and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Constructing difference where there should be none is the main subject of this collection of essays about gender and its cultural manifestations and representations. From the pronouns we use, through the titles and positions we hold in our workplaces, to the more salient issues concerning abuse of power and exertion of violence, gender runs as a seemingly inevitable divide. This volume addresses the continuing relevance of the quest to diminish that gap, from the perspectives of literature, language, film, law, employment, aging and agency, both social and political.
Book Synopsis Audiovisual Translation by : Yves Gambier
Download or read book Audiovisual Translation written by Yves Gambier and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2018-06-15 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The exponential growth of Audiovisual Translation (AVT) in the last three decades has consolidated its place as an area of study within Translation Studies (TS). However, AVT is still a young domain currently exploring a number of different lines of inquiry without a specific methodological and theoretical framework. This volume discusses the advantages and drawbacks of ten approaches to AVT and highlights the potential avenues opened up by new methods. Our aim is to jumpstart the discussion on the (in)adequacy of the methodologies imported from other disciplines and the need (or not) for a conceptual apparatus and framework of analysis specific to AVT. This collective work relates to recent edited volumes that seek to take stock on research in AVT, but it distinguishes itself from those publications by promoting links in what is now a very fragmented field. Originally published as a special issue of Target 28:2 (2016).
Book Synopsis Linguistic Stereotyping and Minority Groups in Japan by : Nanette Gottlieb
Download or read book Linguistic Stereotyping and Minority Groups in Japan written by Nanette Gottlieb and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-02-01 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first full-length study in English to examine the use of discriminatory language in Japan. As in other countries, there has been much debate about the public use of language deemed demeaning to certain groups within society especially in relation to the issue of minority rights versus freedom of speech. Adding a new dimension to the discussion of language and society in Japan, the book focuses on an aspect of language and power which highlights some of the dissent underlying Japan’s officially promoted ideology of a harmonious society. The text presents a revealing examination of the discriminatory language, known as sabetsu yogo, as identified by five minority groups, the Burakumin, the Ainu, people with physical or mental disabilities, women and ethnic groups within Japan
