Introductory Linguistics for Speech and Language Therapy Practice
This practical introduction to linguistics is a must-have resource for all speech and language therapy students, providing you with the fundamental theory needed as a foundation for practice. Written by authors with extensive experience in both research and teaching, Introductory Linguistics for Speech and Language Practice equips you with a practical understanding of relevant linguistic concepts in the key language areas of morphology, syntax, semantics, discourse and pragmatics. Each chapter opens by explaining why the information is of relevance to the speech language therapist, and this integrated approach is emphasised via reference to relevant clinical resources. Exercises throughout each chapter also allow you to test your understanding of key principles and apply this knowledge to other areas of your study. This concise, readable guide is a core text for all undergraduate and postgraduate students of speech and language therapy, and is also ideal for qualified therapists wanting to enrich their understanding of the linguistic assessments they use in practice.
Struggle over Identity
Rejecting the cliché about “weak identity and underdeveloped nationalism,” Bekus argues for the co-existence of two parallel concepts of Belarusianness—the official and the alternative one—which mirrors the current state of the Belarusian people more accurately and allows for a different interpretation of the interconnection between the democratization and nationalization of Belarusian society. The book describes how the ethno-symbolic nation of the Belarusian nationalists, based on the cultural capital of the Golden Age of the Belarusian past (17th century) competes with the “nation” institutionalized and reified by the numerous civic rituals and social practices under the auspices of the actual Belarusian state. Comparing the two concepts not only provides understanding of the logic that dominates Belarusian society’s self-description models, but also enables us to evaluate the chances of alternative Belarusianness to win this unequal struggle over identity.

George Boone IV (1690-1753), a Quaker, emigrated from England to Abington, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, married Deborah Howell in 1713, and moved to Berks County, Pennsylvania. Descendants lived in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, California and elsewhere.
Register of Carolina Huguenots, Vol. 1, Bacot - Dupont
This book in 4 volumes lists approximately 22,000 descendants of 81 of the original 400 Huguenot immigrants to Carolina, arriving around 1685. For each immigrant, an Individual Summary is provided, and all known descendants are listed by generation for up to 10 generations , showing names and dates. The Index in Volume 4 can be used to find if you are descended from these 81 Huguenot immigrants. No sourcing or documented evidence of relationship is provided and the authors do not guarantee accuracy. However, the data has been carefully checked from many sources and can be used as the basis for further genealogical research and documentation.
The Intonation of Givenness
This book addresses students and researchers of both phonetics and phonology, and the semantics and pragmatics of discourse. It employs an autosegmental-metrical model of intonation to investigate the marking of aspects of information structure, concentrating on the Given-New dimension. It begins with an overview of the state of the art in the areas of intonation and information structure, and, since the term 'Givenness' has been used in the literature in diverging ways, provides a model of 'Givenness proper', focussing on the cognitive states of discourse referents, and how these states are expressed through the choice of words and their prosody. The empirical evidence provided here is based on German. It comprises the analysis of a read corpus and two perception experiments which show that the dichotomy of 'accented' versus 'uncaccented' corresponding to 'New' versus 'Given' information is inadequate. In fact, there is evidence that a range of pitch accent types (including deaccentuation) can be mapped onto the gradient scale of Givenness degrees, with the pitch height on the accented syllable being the determining factor.
