Discourse, Consciousness, and Time: The Flow and Displacement of Conscious Experience in Speaking and Writing
Wallace Chafe demonstrates how the study of language and consciousness together can provide an unexpectedly broad understanding of the way the mind works. Relying on close analyses of conversational speech as well as written fiction and nonfiction, he investigates both the flow of ideas through consciousness and the displacement of consciousness by way of memory and imagination. Chafe draws on several decades of research to demonstrate that understanding the nature of consciousness is essential to understanding many linguistic phenomena, such as pronouns, tense, clause structure, and intonation, as well as stylistic usages, such as the historical present and the free indirect style.
Assuming no prior knowledge of linguistics, Understanding Syntax, Third Edition discusses and illustrates the major terms and concepts essential to the study of sentence structure in the world's languages. Word classes such as 'noun' and 'verb' are explained, and the properties of these categories are discussed. You will discover what is meant by the terms 'subject' and 'object', what a finite verb is, and what relative clauses look like. Concepts such as 'gender', 'case', and 'subordination' are introduced and exemplified, with extensive illustration from English and many other languages.
Less Translated Languages (Benjamins Translation Library)
The idea for this book, Less Translated Languages, arose from the 5th International Conference on Translation, “Interculturality and Translation: Less Translated Languages”, organised by the Departament de Traducció i d’Interpretació at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (Catalonia, Spain) in October 2001.1 The focus of this conference was the role of translation in cross-cultural relations with special emphasis on languages which are less translated and more particularly on Catalan, a significant Western minority language that remains largely unresearched in mainstream Translation Studies.
The Discourse of Court Interpreting: Discourse Practices of the Law,the Witness and the Interpreter (Benjamins Translation Library)
This book explores the intricacies of court interpreting through a thorough analysis of the authentic discourse of the English-speaking participants, the Spanish-speaking witnesses and the interpreters. Written by a practitioner, educator and researcher, the book presents the reader with real issues that most court interpreters face during their work and shows through the results of careful research studies that interpreter’s choices can have varying degrees of influence on the triadic exchange.
