Описание: New Media and Religious Transformations in Africa casts a critical look at Africa's rapidly evolving religious media scene. Following political liberalization, media deregulation, and the proliferation of new media technologies, many African religious leaders and activists have appropriated such media to strengthen and expand their communities and gain public recognition. Media have also been used to marginalize and restrict the activities of other groups, which has sometimes led to tension, conflict, and even violence. Showing how media are rarely neutral vehicles of expression, the contributors to this multidisciplinary volume analyze the mutual imbrications of media and religion during times of rapid technological and social change in various places throughout Africa.

Описание: The "one-nation-one-language" assumption is as unrealistic as the well-known Chomskyan ideal of a homogeneous speech community. Linguistic pluricentricity is a common and widespread phenomenon; it can be understood as either differing national standards or differing local norms. The nine studies collected in this volume explore the sociocultural, conceptual and structural dimensions of variation and change within pluricentric languages, with specific emphasis on the relationship between national varieties. They include research undertaken in both the Cognitive Linguistic and socolinguistic tradition, with particular emphasis upon the emerging framework of Cognitive Sociolinguistics. Six languages, all more or less pluricentric, are analyzed: four Germanic languages (English, German, Dutch and Swedish) and two Romance languages (Portuguese and French). The volume describes patterns of phonetic, lexical and morphosyntactic variation, and perception and attitudes in relation to these pluricentric languages. It makes use of advanced empirical methods able to account for the complex interplay between conceptual and social aspects of pluricentric variation and other forms of language-internal variation.

Описание: What the hell did I know about leading, about trying to save people?I used to think I was saving people, before, back when I was a suburban doctor. That was nothing. The disease that made people into something like zombies didn't just take away the lives of the infected, it took away everything - family, community, civilization itself. How could I save people from that? But the younger ones looked up to me in some weird way, given that I was well past my sixtieth birthday. Maybe they thought it made me wise. And maybe it did, because I knew one thing as clear as day.We might not all get killed by this world, this disease, but there's no way we're all getting out alive.-----A best seller in Post Apocalyptic fiction SPR review: 5 stars "The book is a strong finale and pushes its characters to their limit without hesitation. Each chapter is tense yet bleak, but the small victories that come with each crossed bridge and hurdle are drunk in by the weary narrator, and the small glimmer of hope he becomes charged with shines on through each terrifying step."IndieReader review: 4.5 stars "A tale of salvation with all too human characters face the ravages of a pandemic. Coupling their minds with their courage, the small band of sojourners finds their way out of the darkness of impending death to a new beginning for the human race.""A wonderful story. This series grabbed me from the start and wouldn't let go. When I wasn't reading it, I was thinking about it. The characters in this story were amazing. Strong willed, funny and someone that I would have called friend.""My favorite apocalyptic tale. The quality of writing and the story line are superb. I am only sad to say that "From Blood Reborn" is the last of the series.""Even though you're reading about a wild, post-apocalyptic time, the tale remains grounded in reality. That's what makes it so chilling."

Описание: I didn't care anymore, not after what happened at The Oasis... and afterward.I just walked, not concerned if I'd live or die. Strange how things change. How a little house, a dog, and a total stranger worked their way into my heart and soul when I didn't think I had either of those things left anymore. I thought I was too old for all of it, certainly too old to care much for my own wellbeing. But the others? Having them around changed my outlook, made me protective.When new dangers appeared, having friends made me truly understand one thing: fear.-----A best seller in Post Apocalyptic fiction SPR review: 5 stars "While a book about outcasts banding together may seem as overdone a trope as zombie fiction itself, once again I have to assure anyone reading this that the author, Keith Soares, is in all ways a step above those expectations in his ideas and his execution... I don't recommend reading this book; I recommend reading every book this author publishes, as I have no doubt he will continue raising the bar."IndieReader review: 4.5 stars "Soares paints a frightening, realistic picture of life in a post-apocalyptic world... It's refreshing to read a book in this vein that allows the reader to explore a protagonist's anguish without relying on a flat, twenty-something hero.""This book should come with a warning: You will not be going anywhere for a while once you read the first chapter.""'The Hopeless Pastures' is a worthy sequel to 'The Oasis of Filth' - a story that stands on its own, but also expertly sets up the final chapter to this compelling series.""Boy does the author deliver. The dramatic arcs of the story are like riding a great rollercoaster.""Soares does a masterful job of making the situations and outcomes seem eerily plausible, which heightens the creepiness factor and suspense immensely for me."

Описание: Assumendo come campo operativo lo spazio comunicativo siciliano nei secoli XV–XVII, il presente lavoro offre un contributo assai innovativo alla storiografia delle lingue romanze. Attraverso una capillare analisi di dieci Ricettari di segreti, una tradizione discorsiva scientifico-religiosa tanto contenutisticamente, quanto linguisticamente composita ed eterogenea, si analizzano in maniera esemplare le dinamiche di contatto tra gli idiomi presenti nel Regno di Sicilia (latino, siciliano, toscano, castigliano, ecc.) sia sul piano dell’organizzazione testuale, sia sui livelli fonografematico, morfosintattico e semantico-lessicale. Quanto osservato sul piano dell’analisi testuale in merito al generarsi di varieta di contatto e messo efficacemente in relazione, sul metalivello, alle principali epistemi medioevali e della prima eta moderna, a partire dalla concezione scolastico-aristotelica della variazione linguistica per giungere al dibattito rinascimentale sulla Questione della lingua. Dalla connessione dei due piani si traggono lucide conclusioni per una storia della lingua immune a ogni linea di pensiero teleologica.
