The general focus in Lakota oral literary research has been on content rather than process within oral traditions. In this groundbreaking study of the characteristics of Lakota oral style, Delphine Red Shirt shows how its composition and structure are reflected in the work of George Sword, who composed 245 pages of text in the Lakota language using the English alphabet. What emerges in Sword's Lakota narratives are the formulaic patterns inherent in the Lakota language that are used to tell the narratives, as well as recurring themes and story patterns. Red Shirt's primary conclusion is that this cadence originates from a distinctly Lakota oral tradition.
Red Shirt analyzes historical documents and original texts in Lakota to answer the question: How is Lakota literature defined? Her pioneering work uncovers the epistemological basis of this literature, which can provide material for literary studies, anthropological and traditional linguistics, and translation studies. Her analysis of Sword's texts discloses tools that can be used to determine whether the origin of any given narrative in Lakota tradition is oral, thereby opening avenues for further research.

Описание: How did Ancient Greek express that an event occurred at a particular time, for a certain duration, or within a given time frame? The answer to these questions depends on a variety of conditions - the nature of the time noun, the tense and aspect of the verb, the particular historical period of Greek during which the author lived - that existing studies of the language do not take sufficiently into account. This book accordingly examines the circumstances that govern the use of the genitive, dative, and accusative of time, as well as the relevant prepositional constructions, primarily in Greek prose of the fifth century BC through the second century AD, but also in Homer. While the focus is on developments in Greek, translations of the examples, as well as a fully glossed summary chapter, make it accessible to linguists interested in the expression of time generally.

Описание: Diese Festschrift zum 70. Geburtstag von Professor Bernd Spillner enthalt Beitrage zu den Themenbereichen Fachsprachen- und Stilforschung, Sprachvergleich, Medienkommunikation und Fremdsprachenerwerb. Der Band bietet weiterhin ein breites Spektrum an Aufsatzen zur relativ neuen linguistischen Teildisziplin der Kulinaristik. Die Frage der Anwendbarkeit der Forschungsergebnisse steht dabei im Zentrum der einzelnen Aufsatze. Es wird deutlich, dass die Ergebnisse der Forschungen der sprachvergleichenden Perspektive einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Herausbildung interkultureller Kompetenz leisten. Diese stellt eine wichtige Grundlage dar, Brucken zwischen Sprach- und Kulturraumen zu bauen – eine Fahigkeit, die Bernd Spillners Werk in exemplarischer Weise auszeichnet. Zu den Autoren gehoren Freunde, Kollegen, Mitarbeiter und Schuler von Bernd Spillner, die die vielseitigen Forschungsinteressen des Jubilars teilweise auch interdisziplinar aufgreifen.

Описание:
First published in 1816 and revised in 1916, this edition of George Crabb's English Synonyms contains the entirety of his most enduring work. The revised edition is supplemented by a large number of words, the applications of which had grown into the language in the preceding years or had taken on a deeper significance in light of the First World War. It also contains comprehensive cross-referencing, which brings closely related words together and facilitates the quick location of a desired term.
