Spelling and Society
Spelling matters to people. In America and Britain every day, members of the public write to the media on spelling issues, and take part in spelling contests. In Germany, a reform of the spelling system has provoked a constitutional crisis; in Galicia, a 'war of orthographies' parallels an intense public debate on national identity; on walls, bridges and trains globally, PUNX and ANARKISTS proclaim their identities orthographically. The way we spell often represents an attempt to associate with, or dissociate from, other languages. In Spelling and Society, Mark Sebba explores why matters of orthography are of real concern to so many groups, as a reflection of culture, history and social practices, and as a powerful symbol of national or local identity. This 2007 book will be welcomed by students and researchers in English language, orthography and sociolinguistics, and by anyone interested in the importance of spelling in contemporary society.
Fusion Neutronics
This book provides a systematic and comprehensive introduction to fusion neutronics, covering all key topics from the fundamental theories and methodologies, as well as a wide range of fusion system designs and experiments. It is the first-ever book focusing on the subject of fusion neutronics research. Compared with other nuclear devices such as fission reactors and accelerators, fusion systems are normally characterized by their complex geometry and nuclear physics, which entail new challenges for neutronics such as complicated modeling, deep penetration, low simulation efficiency, multi-physics coupling, etc. The book focuses on the neutronic characteristics of fusion systems and introduc...
Pravopis na zrnu graha
Tretja monografija iz niza »razprav o pravopisnih vprašanjih« (pred njo sta izšli monografiji Pravopisna stikanja, 2012, in Pravopisna razpotja, 2015) je priložnost za podrobnejšo predstavitev procesa kodifikacije. Prenova pravopisnega priročnika poteka ob poglobljenem raziskovanju in široko zastavljenih premislekih, pri katerih s svojimi znanji pomagajo tudi strokovnjaki z drugih področij. Na ta način se približujemo končnemu idealu, za katerega se v Pravopisni komisiji pri SAZU in ZRC SAZU zavedamo, da ga bomo težko dosegli – že zato, ker spoštujemo različnost jezikovnih praks in ideologij. Pri tem smo kot kakšne pravopisne kraljične iz Andersenove pravljice, ki se klju...
Stonehenge
In a land steeped with ritual and sacrifice, a family of brothers whose deadly rivalries and glorious ambitions will forever mark the world, gather at Stonehenge.
Pravopisna razpotja
Monografija Pravopisna razpotja tako z imenom kot z obliko predstavlja nadaljevanje monografije Pravopisna stikanja (2012) in prinaša »še več pravopisa«. S prispevki 27 avtoric in avtorjev z različnih ustanov in iz različnih okolij želi delo preseči idejna in metodološka nasprotja, s katerimi je nasičena slovenska jezikoslovna publicistika. Prispevki so združeni v šest poglavij (Ožja pravopisna poglavja: izbira začetnice in ločila, Pravorečje v pravopisu, Oblikoslovje in besedotvorje v pravopisu, Pravopisna norma na drugih področjih, Iz pravil v slovar in iz slovarja v pravila, Pravopisna izbira kot jezikovnokulturna izbira: leksika, skladnja in slog) in se lotevajo problem...
