Por el derecho comprender
Es común en la sociedad sentir que los funcionarios son inaccesibles, que los escritos del Estado son confusos y que los trámites son innecesariamente complejos. De igual forma, la eficiencia de las entidades se ve afectada por no saber comunicarse con los usuarios. Ante esta situación, organizaciones provenientes de la academia y los sectores público y privado crearon la Red de Lenguaje Claro de Colombia con el objetivo de contribuir a hacer realidad el presupuesto jurídico y político del derecho a comprender. Este libro es uno de los productos de la Red. Recoge discusiones teóricas, reflexiones sobre experiencias de intervención, resultados de investigaciones, propuestas de pautas para la escritura jurídica y guías para elaborar material pedagógico. De este modo, se espera contribuir a la transformación de los imaginarios culturales sobre el uso del lenguaje, especialmente el jurídico.
Por el derecho a comprender lenguaje claro
Para un efectivo ejercicio de la democracia, los ciudadanos necesitamos entender las leyes y demás comunicados del Estado. Así, requerimos claridad en los textos que recibimos de las empresas —tanto públicas como privadas— para la adecuada defensa de nuestros derechos y el cumplimiento de los deberes. Contrario a esto, es común en la sociedad sentir que los funcionarios son inaccesibles y que los trámites son innecesariamente complejos. De igual forma, la eficiencia de las entidades se ve afectada por no saber comunicarse con los usuarios. El presente libro cuenta cómo un grupo de personas y organizaciones se han preocupado por la falta de claridad en el lenguaje y han actuado para contribuir a hacer realidad el presupuesto jurídico y político del derecho a comprender, con la consecuente responsabilidad para todas las entidades de hacerse comprensibles. Ante la ya existencia de iniciativas mundiales de lenguaje claro, esas personas y organizaciones provenientes de la sociedad civil, la academia y los sectores público y privado se unieron tras considerar que la cooperación facilita el trabajo y permite lograr mejores y mayores resultados.

Academic Discourse
Academic discourse is a rapidly growing area of study, attracting researchers and students from a diverse range of fields. This is partly due to the growing awareness that knowledge is socially constructed through language and partly because of the emerging dominance of English as the language of scholarship worldwide. Large numbers of students and researchers must now gain fluency in the conventions of English language academic discourses to understand their disciplines, establish their careers and to successfully navigate their learning. This accessible and readable book shows the nature and importance of academic discourses in the modern world, offering a clear description of the conventions of spoken and written academic discourse and the ways these construct both knowledge and disciplinary communities. This unique genre-based introduction to academic discourse will be essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying TESOL, applied linguistics, and English for Academic Purposes.
Discourse on the Move
Discourse on the Move is the first book-length exploration of how corpus-based methods can be used for discourse analysis, applied to the description of discourse organization. The primary goal is to bring these two analytical perspectives together: undertaking a detailed discourse analysis of each individual text, but doing so in terms that can be generalized across all texts of a corpus. The book explores two major approaches to this task: 'top-down' and 'bottom-up'. In the 'top-down' approach, the functional components of a genre are determined first, and then all texts in a corpus are analyzed in terms of those components. In contrast, textual components emerge from the corpus analysis in the bottom-up approach, and the discourse organization of individual texts is then analyzed in terms of linguistically-defined textual categories. Both approaches are illustrated through case studies of discourse structure in particular genres: fund-raising letters, biology/biochemistry research articles, and university classroom teaching.
Meditations on Quixote
"""One of the essential experiences, the greatest perhaps, is Cervantes. . . . Alas! If only we knew with certainty the secret of Cervantes' style, of his manner of approaching things, we would have found out everything.""In Meditations on Quixote, Jos Ortega y Gasset presents a powerful case for integrating literature into experience. Through a series of ""essays in intellectual love,"" Ortega explores the aim of philosophy: to carry a given fact (a person, a book, a landscape, an error, a sorrow) by the shortest route to its fullest significance. He then considers how literature, specifically Cervantes, contributes to realizing this aim.Arguing that ""we are all heroes in some measure,"" t...
