Written and Spoken Language Development across the Lifespan
This multidisciplinary volume offers insights on oral and written language development and how it takes place in literate societies. The volume covers topics from early to late language development, its interaction with literacy practices, including several languages, monolingual and multilingual contexts, different scripts, as well as typical and atypical development. Inspired by the work of Liliana Tolchinsky, a leading expert in language and literacy development, a group of internationally renowned scholars offers a state-of-the-art overview of current thinking in language development in literate societies in its broadest sense. Contributors offer a personal tribute to Liliana Tolchinsky in the opening section.

Les dificultats de l'aprenentatge de l'escriptura i de les matemàtiques
Una de les principals passions humanes sempre ha estat poder descriure i quantificar el món que ens envolta. Des de les civilitzacions més antigues fins a l'actualitat, els humans hem utilitzat un sistema de comunicació escrit i un sistema per ordenar i calcular els fenòmens de l'entorn. És per això que, entre les àrees fonamentals que es treballen a l'escola de tots els països del món, hi ha la de l'escriptura i la de les matemàtiques. Ambdues disciplines impliquen un alt grau d’abstracció que explica la gran dificultat que representa el seu aprenentatge per als nens. Amb l'objectiu d'oferir una formació intensiva i actualitzada per a mestres i educadors, aquest volum se centra en l'anàlisi del procés d'adquisició de l'escriptura i les dificultats que es produeixen en el seu aprenentatge, així com en l'adquisició de l'habilitat matemàtica i els trastorns que poden esdevenir-se durant aquest procés.

University Writing
'University Writing' examines new trends in the different theoretical perspectives (cognitive, social and cultural) and derived practices in the activity of writing in higher education.
The Acquisition of Spanish
This is the first book on the acquisition of Spanish that provides a state-of-the-art comprehensive overview of Spanish morphosyntactic development in monolingual and bilingual situations. Its content is organized around key grammatical themes that form the empirical base of research in generative grammar: nominal and verbal inflectional morphology, subject and object pronouns, complex structures involving movement (topicalizations, questions, relative clauses), and aspects of verb meaning that have consequences for syntax. The book argues that Universal Grammar constrains all instances of language acquisition and that there is a fundamental continuity between monolingual, bilingual, child a...
Learning to Spell
This distinctive cross-linguistic examination of spelling examines the cognitive processes that underlie spelling and the process of learning how to spell. The chapters report and summarize recent research in English, German, Hebrew, and French. Framing the specific research on spelling are chapters that place spelling in braod theoretical perspectives provided by cognitive neuroscience, psycholinguistic, and writing system-linguistic frameworks. Of special interest is the focus on two major interrelated issues: how spelling is acquired and the relationship between reading and spelling. An important dimension of the book is the interweaving of these basic questions about the nature of spelli...
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.
Causality and Connectives
The book explores finely-grained distinctions in causal meaning, mostly from a relevance-theoretic perspective. To increase the challenge of this double task, i.e. a thorough as well as satisfactory account of cause and a detailed assessment of the theoretical model employed to this end, the current study involves an investigation carried out by way of contrasting the prototypical causal exponents of Modern Greek subordination, i.e. epeiδi and γiati. In addition, this objective is achieved in the methodological framework of contrasting a range of contextual applications of the two connectives against their translated versions in English, realizable by means of because. Despite first impres...
