Book Synopsis Towards a New Standard by : Massimo Cerruti
Download or read book Towards a New Standard written by Massimo Cerruti and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-01-11 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many European languages the National Standard Variety is converging with spoken, informal, and socially marked varieties. In Italian this process is giving rise to a new standard variety called Neo-standard Italian, which partly consists of regional features. This book contributes to current research on standardization in Europe by offering a comprehensive overview of the re-standardization dynamics in Italian. Each chapter investigates a specific dynamic shaping the emergence of Neo-standard Italian and Regional Standard Varieties, such as the acceptance of previously non-standard features, the reception of Old Italian features excluded from the standard variety, the changing standard language ideology, the retention of features from Italo-Romance dialects, the standardization of patterns borrowed from English, and the developmental tendencies of standard Italian in Switzerland. The contributions investigate phonetic/phonological, prosodic, morphosyntactic, and lexical phenomena, addressed by several empirical methodologies and theoretical vantage points. This work is of interest to scholars and students working on language variation and change, especially those focusing on standard languages and standardization dynamics.
Book Synopsis Dissimulation and the Culture of Secrecy in Early Modern Europe by : Jon R. Snyder
Download or read book Dissimulation and the Culture of Secrecy in Early Modern Europe written by Jon R. Snyder and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2009-08-19 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Larvatus prodeo," announced René Descartes at the beginning of the seventeenth century: "I come forward, masked." Deliberately disguising or silencing their most intimate thoughts and emotions, many early modern Europeans besides Descartes-princes, courtiers, aristocrats and commoners alike-chose to practice the shadowy art of dissimulation. For men and women who could not risk revealing their inner lives to those around them, this art of incommunicativity was crucial, both personally and politically. Many writers and intellectuals sought to explain, expose, justify, or condemn the emergence of this new culture of secrecy, and from Naples to the Netherlands controversy swirled for two centuries around the powers and limits of dissimulation, whether in affairs of state or affairs of the heart. This beautifully written work crisscrosses Europe, with a special focus on Italy, to explore attitudes toward the art of dissimulation in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Discussing many canonical and lesser-known works, Jon R. Snyder examines the treatment of dissimulation in early modern treatises and writings on the court, civility, moral philosophy, political theory, and in the visual arts.

Download or read book Myths of Origins written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-05-09 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The articles in Myths of Origins provide insights into the universality of myths of origins as patterns of literary creation from Antiquity to the present. The essays range from an investigation of the six models of beginnings in Western literature to the workings of modern myths of origins in postcolonial literature and relocate the discussion on myths of origin in a wider context that besides the humanities considers linguistics and the impact of new technologies. The contributing authors to the volume shed light on issues relating to myths of origins by linking this subject to literary creation and adopting a multidisciplinary approach.
Book Synopsis Rìsi e cchjànti by : Giovannino Borelli

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [...] Borelli, in queste poesie leggiadre, compie un’azione di trasformazione del sentire più profondo, in parola poetica, immergendosi nell’antica lingua dei padri, utilizzandone la musicalità – che ha risonanze antichissime – e le essenze, i significati, ricchi, anzi ricchissimi, di mille pieghe e sfaccettature umane e culturali. E riesce a farlo in modo armonico, fluido, senza mai inficiare la scorrevolezza e l’eleganza del verso. Inoltre, in tutti i testi, la parola di Giovannino Borelli, che è parola arcana perché discesa dai padri, ma al contempo chiara ed incisiva, fino ad espandersi ed arrivare al cuore del lettore, è stata capace di assorbire stimoli e motivazioni legati ad un mondo circoscritto, ma volto all’universale.

Book Synopsis Introduction to Statistical Physics, Second Edition by : Kerson Huang
Download or read book Introduction to Statistical Physics, Second Edition written by Kerson Huang and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2009-09-21 with total page 1102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by a world-renowned theoretical physicist, Introduction to Statistical Physics, Second Edition clarifies the properties of matter collectively in terms of the physical laws governing atomic motion. This second edition expands upon the original to include many additional exercises and more pedagogically oriented discussions that fully explain the concepts and applications. The book first covers the classical ensembles of statistical mechanics and stochastic processes, including Brownian motion, probability theory, and the Fokker–Planck and Langevin equations. To illustrate the use of statistical methods beyond the theory of matter, the author discusses entropy in information theory, Brownian motion in the stock market, and the Monte Carlo method in computer simulations. The next several chapters emphasize the difference between quantum mechanics and classical mechanics—the quantum phase. Applications covered include Fermi statistics and semiconductors and Bose statistics and Bose–Einstein condensation. The book concludes with advanced topics, focusing on the Ginsburg–Landau theory of the order parameter and the special kind of quantum order found in superfluidity and superconductivity. Assuming some background knowledge of classical and quantum physics, this textbook thoroughly familiarizes advanced undergraduate students with the different aspects of statistical physics. This updated edition continues to provide the tools needed to understand and work with random processes.

Book Synopsis Digital Papyrology I by : Nicola Reggiani
Download or read book Digital Papyrology I written by Nicola Reggiani and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-09-11 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the very beginnings of the digital humanities, Papyrology has been in the vanguard of the application of information technologies to its own scientific purposes, for both theoretical and practical reasons (the strong awareness towards the problems of human memory and the material ways of preserving it; the need to work with a multifarious and overwhelming amount of different data). After more than thirty years of development, we have now at our disposal the most advanced tools to make papyrological studies more and more effective, and even to create a new conception of "papyrology" and a new model of "edition" of the ancient documents. At this turining point, it is important to build an epistemological framework including all the different expressions of Digital Papyrology, to trace a historical sketch setting the background of the contemporary tools, and to provide a clear overview of the current theoretical and technological trends, so that all the possibilities currently available can be exploited following uniform pathways. The volume represents an innovative attempt to deal with such topics, usually relegated into very quick and general treatments within journal articles or papyrological handbooks.
Book Synopsis The Laws of Late Medieval Italy (1000-1500) by : Mario Ascheri
Download or read book The Laws of Late Medieval Italy (1000-1500) written by Mario Ascheri and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-07-11 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Laws of Late Medieval Italy Mario Ascheri examines the features of the Italian legal world and explains why it should be regarded as a foundation for the future European continental system. The deep feuds among the Empire, the Churches unified by Roman papacy and the flourishing cities gave rise to very new legal ideas with the strong cooperation of the universities, beginning with that of Bologna. The teaching of Roman law and of the new papal laws, which quickly spread all over Europe, built up a professional group of lawyers and notaries which shaped the new, 'modern', public institutions, including efficient courts (like the Inquisition). Politically divided, Italy was partly unified by the legal system, so-called (Continental) common law (ius commune), which became a pattern for all of Europe onwards. Early modern Europe had for long time to work with it, and parts of it are still alive as a common cultural heritage behind a new European law system.

Book Synopsis Terence between Late Antiquity and the Age of Printing by :
Download or read book Terence between Late Antiquity and the Age of Printing written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terence between Late Antiquity and the Age of Printing investigates the Medieval and Early Renaissance reception of Terence in highly innovative ways, combining the diverse but interrelated strands of textual criticism, illustrative tradition, and performance. The plays of Terence seem to have remained unperformed until the Renaissance, but they were a central text for educators in Western Europe. Manuscripts of the plays contained scholarship and illustrations which were initially inspired by Late Antique models, and which were constantly transformed in response to contemporary thought. The contributions in this work deal with these topics, as well as the earliest printed editions of Terence, theatrical revivals in Northern Italy, and the readership of Terence throughout the Early Middle Ages.

Book Synopsis Omnium Annalium Monumenta: Historical Writing and Historical Evidence in Republican Rome by : Kaj Sandberg
Download or read book Omnium Annalium Monumenta: Historical Writing and Historical Evidence in Republican Rome written by Kaj Sandberg and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume brings a variety of approaches to the problem of how the Romans conceived of their history, what were the mechanisms for their preservation of the past, and how did the Romans come to write about their past. Building on important recent work in historiography, and the recent memory turn, the authors consider the practicalities of transmission, literary and generic influences, and the role of the city of Rome in preserving and transmitting memories of the past. The result is a major contribution to our understanding of the role history played in Roman life, and the kinds of evidence which could be deployed in constructing Roman history.

Book excerpt: This book situates Pindar's victory odes for Hieron of Syracuse within the tumultuous context of Syracuse and Greece in the early fifth century BC. It combines exploration of the material and musical culture of Hieron's Syracuse with literary analysis to demonstrate how Pindar's poetry manipulates epinician form to effect political legitimation.
Book Synopsis Brill's Companion to Ancient Macedon by : Robin J. Lane Fox
Download or read book Brill's Companion to Ancient Macedon written by Robin J. Lane Fox and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2011-08-12 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past 35 years our archaeological and epigraphic evidence for the history and culture of ancient Macedon has been transformed. This book brings together the leading Greek archaeologists and historians of the area in a major collaborative survey of the finds and their interpretation, many of them unpublished outside Greece. The recent, immensely significant excavations of the palace of King Philip II are published here for the first time. Major new chapters on the Macedonians' Greek language, civic life, fourth and third century BC kings and court accompany specialist surveys of the region's art and coinage and the royal palace centres of Pella and Vergina, presented here with much new evidence. This book is the essential companion to Macedon, packed with new information and bibliography which no student of the Greek world can now afford to neglect.
