Formulaic sequences (FS) are now recognized as an essential element of language use. However, research on FS has generally been limited to a focus on description, or on the place of FS in L1 acquisition. This volume opens new directions in FS research, concentrating on how FS are acquired and processed by the mind, both in the L1 and L2. The ten original studies in the volume illustrate the L2 acquisition of FS, the relationship between L1 and L2 FS, the relationship between corpus recurrence of FS and their psycholinguistic reality, the processes involved in reading FS, and pedagogical issues in teaching FS. The studies use a wide range of methodologies, many of them innovative, and thus the volume serves as a model for future research in the area. The volume begins with three survey chapters offering a background on the characteristics and measurement of FS.
This dictionary identifies more than 13,000 German-Jewish surnames from the area that was pre-World War I Germany. From Baden-Wuerttemburg in the south to Schleswig-Holstein in the north. From Westfalen in the west to East Prussia in the east. In addition to providing the etymology and variants of each name, it identifies where in the region the name appeared, identifying the town and time period. More than 300 sources were used to compile the book. A chapter provides the Jewish population in many towns in the 19th century.
La producción creativa de María Fernanda Cuartas, actualmente una de las artistas relevantes de la región vallecaucana en el suroccidente de Colombia, ha tenido acogida y comentarios, ante todo, por parte de curadores y críticos en el exterior, donde encuentra una significativa recepción. Dentro de la enorme veta de posibilidades investigativas sobre creadores emergentes en el país, este es el primer libro en torno a esta artista que surge en su propio contexto, dirigido tanto a público especializado como general, el cual partió de la inquietud frente al despojo del rostro en sus obras, qué lo motiva, las problemáticas de la existencia individual y social que se filtran tras semejante trastocamiento anulativo de los rasgos faciales, que da la sensación de que avanzamos hacia una sintomática despersonalización en los últimos tiempos, y el vínculo con la pintura occidental, entre otras dimensiones abordadas en este estudio.
