Metaphor in Communication, Science and Education

This collection of papers presents some recent trends in metaphor studies that propose new directions of research on the embodied cognition perspective. The overall volume, in particular, shows how the embodied cognition still remains a relevant approach in a multidisciplinary research on the communicative side of metaphors, by focusing on both comprehension processes in science as well as learning processes in education.

Contrastive Phraseology

This volume is addressed to researchers in the field of phraseology, and to teachers, translators and lexicographers. It is a collection of essays offering a comprehensive, modern analysis of phrasemes, embracing a wide range of subjects and themes, from linguistic, both applied and theoretical, to cultural aspects. The contrastive approach underlying this variety of themes allows the divergences and analogies between phraseological units in two or more languages to be outlined. The languages compared here are both major and minor, European and non-European, and the text includes contrastive analyses of the most commonly investigated languages (French-German, English-Spanish, Russian-German), as well as some less frequently investigated languages (like Ukrainian, Romanian, Georgian and Thai), which are not as well-represented in phraseological description, despite their scientific interest.

Handbuch Deutsch als Fach- und Fremdsprache

Das Interesse an Deutsch als Fremdsprache hat weltweit in den letzten Jahren weiter zugenommen. Bisher wurde dabei noch nicht in ausreichendem Maße berücksichtigt, dass DaF heute meist zu beruflichen Zwecken und mit gezielten professionellen Absichten gelernt wird.

Hierzu wird nach einer Einführung das Themengebiet zunächst theoretisch abgesteckt. Anschließend werden historische Fragestellungen vom Mittelalter bis in die Gegenwart erörtert. Auch die aktuelle Rolle des Deutschen angesichts der internationalen Dominanz des fachsprachlic...

Didaktische Perspektiven der Phraseologie in der Gegenwart

Die Phraseologie hat sich durch ihre Öffnung für generelle Fragen der Formelhaftigkeit von Sprache als Wissenschaftsdisziplin aus einem Nischendasein befreit. Aber hat sich auch ihre didaktische Teildisziplin, die die fremd- und primärsprachenunterrichtliche Anwendung phraseologischer Erkenntnisse untersucht, etablieren können und eigene Forschungsdimensionen ausgebildet? Der Band zeigt für die deutschsprachige Phraseodidaktik aktuelle Forschungsfragen, Theorie- und Modellbildungen, methodische Ansätze und Vermittlungskonzepte. Dabei spiegelt die Gewichtung der Beiträge in dem Band allerdings auch wider, dass sich fremd- und primärsprachliche Phraseodidaktik in einem unterschiedliche...

This volume deals with the right of any individual not to be subjected to torture. Although almost universally prohibited, torture still manifests itself in the conduct of several States around the world, including Member States of the Council of Europe. The European Court of Human Rights has, since its inception, entered numerous findings of torture. Mindful of the urgency of the effectiveness of the international legal prohibition of torture, this book examines and critically appraises the practice of the European Court on torture. Through the analysis of leading cases and the legal issues ensuing from them, the book explores the contribution of the European Court to the clarification of t...
