Urgent Matters

'Part thriller, part telenovela, a well-wrought tango noir' The Times 'Vivid and unforgiving' Guardian ____________ A devastating train crash in the suburbs of Buenos Aires leaves forty-three people dead, but not Hugo Lamadrid, a criminal wanted for murder. He seizes his change to disappear, abandoning his possessions - and, he hopes, his identity - among bodies mangled beyond all recognition. As the police descend of the scene, only grizzled Detective Domínguez sees a link between the crash and his murder case. Soon, he's on Hugo's tail. But he hasn't banked on everything from the media to Hugo's mother-in-law getting in his way. This crackling, pacy noir shines a light on urgent social is...

The English Phrasal Verb, 1650–Present

Providing a detailed and comprehensive account of the development of phrasal verbs from early modern to present-day English, this study covers almost 400 years in the history of English, and provides both a diachronic and synchronic account based on over 12,000 examples extracted from stratified electronic corpora. The corpus analysis provides evidence of how registers can inform us about the history of English, as it traces and compares the usage and stylistic drifts of phrasal verbs across ten different genres - drama, fiction, journals, diaries, letters, medicine, news, science, sermons, and trial proceedings. The study also sheds new light on the morpho-syntactic and semantic features of phrasal verbs, proposing a new approach to the category, considering not only on their grammatical features, but also their historical development, by discussing the category in terms of a number of central mechanisms of language change.

Apposition vs. Exemplification with Incluiding and Incluided as Markets: Same or Different Categories

La publicación de este volumen representa un caso relativamente insólito. Un pequeño grupo de jóvenes investigadores de menos de treinta años convence a un grupo mucho más numeroso de la misma edad para celebrar en Salamanca la First Conference of Young Researchers on Anglophone Studies. El resultado es deslumbrante. No solo demuestran una gran capacidad organizativa, sino que los resultados individuales de las aportaciones científicas son sobresalientes. Este volumen, Current Trends in Anglophone Studies, recoge una selección revisada de las propuestas presentadas en el Encuentro y gira en torno a una estructuración tripartita clásica: estudios culturales, lingüísticos y literar...

The Rise to Democracy: The writing of this book is to help educate young America because the olds ways no longer work. It is clear the justice system in our country is nothing more than a reflection of what it used to represent. The issues regarding increased border patrol, speeches to the public about guaranteed citizenship were all deception by way of United States election. Many immigrants have already learned of other ways to fight for permanent residency in the states. It's a game of deception called "I want to become an American Citizen." You know, the process of doing what ever it takes. Years ago it began one city block at a time. Later the issue took over various communities. And now repopulating the region. It won't be long before the nation bows down to the color of another flag and the culture of a different country.
