Terdekat dan Terasing: Kumpulan Catatan Sejarah Sosial Keluarga
Mengenal Indonesia melalui sudut pandang dan narasi kecil bernama keluarga adalah upaya untuk mendekatkan “yang jauh”. Sehingga kita memiliki kesempatan menjadi tak perlu panjang lebar dan muluk-muluk untuk menjelaskan Indonesia karena bisa dimulai dari yang paling dekat—melalui sejarah keluarga dan orang-orang di sekitar kita, melalui aktivitas keseharian, ritual agama dan kepercayaan, tradisi, makanan dan minuman, arsitektur, gaya berpakaian, atau apa saja yang selama ini kita terima begitu saja sebagai hal yang biasa. Kisah-kisah di buku ini seperti menjelma menjadi kawan yang menawarkan keakraban yang nyaris tak pernah ia tampakkan di ruang-ruang resmi dan serius. Kita menjadi tahu bahwa kita tak pernah benar-benar tahu tentang kawan kelasi terdekat. Pada akhirnya kita tahu setelah mendengar langsung kisah diri dan keluarganya, dan kita membuka diri menerima kawan kita dengan segala macam kisah hidupnya.
Internationalization and Global Citizenship
This book examines the integration of the international, global, and intercultural dimensions in contemporary education systems. Yemini provides a comprehensive understanding of the process of internationalization from different angles including policy-making, curriculum implementation, media discourse, and individual agency. The book illuminates and analyzes a set of key tensions of internationalization across multiple levels of schooling and across the domains of popular discourse, policy, curriculum, pedagogy, and students’ identity, by connecting or re-connecting the process of internationalization and its outcomes at individual level of global citizenship. The author uses solid empirical embedding of each of those aspects together with development of novel theoretical insights in each of the investigated domains.
The Acquisition of Complex Sentences
This book presents a comprehensive study of how children acquire complex sentences. Drawing on observational data from English-speaking children aged 2 to 5, Holger Diessel investigates the acquisition of infinitival and participial complement clauses, finite complement clauses, finite and nonfinite relative clauses, adverbial clauses, and coordinate clauses. His investigation shows that the development of complex sentences originates from simple non-embedded sentences and that two different developmental pathways can be distinguished: complex sentences including complement and relative clauses evolve from simple sentences that are gradually expanded to multiple-clause constructions, and complex sentences including adverbial and coordinate clauses develop from simple sentences that are integrated in a specific biclausal unit. He argues that the acquisition process is determined by a variety of factors: the frequency of the various complex sentences in the ambient language, the semantic and syntactic complexity of the emerging constructions, the communicative functions of complex sentences, and the social-cognitive development of the child.

Mirrors
In Mirrors, Galeano smashes aside the narrative of conventional history and arranges the shards into a new pattern, to reveal the past in radically altered form. From the Garden of Eden to twenty-first-century cityscapes, we glimpse fragments in the lives of those who have been overlooked by traditional histories: the artists, the servants, the gods and the visionaries, the black slaves who built the White House, and the women who were bartered for dynastic ends
El IV Centenario de la fundación de la Universidad de Valencia
Las commemoraciones del IV Centenari de la Universitat de València (1902) van a tener su vertiente lúdica fijada en el mundo foral, pero en aquella ocasión -y este es el hecho más interesante- uno de los ejes principales de las celebraciones fue la reivindicación y el debate sobre la reforma y la autonomia universitaria y el intento de resaltar el papel de la institución a los ojos de la sociedad.
What makes Grammaticalization?
The status of grammaticalization has been the subject of many controversial discussions. The contributions to What makes Grammaticalization? approach the prevalent phenomenon from the angle of language structure and focus on the interrelation between the levels of phonology, pragmatics (inference), discourse and the lexicon and some of them try to integrate the areal perspective. A wealth of data from Slavonic languages as well as from languages of other genetic and areal affiliation is discussed. The book is of interest to linguists specializing in grammaticalization, lexicalization and morphological typology, to language typologists as well as to functional, historical and cognitive linguists.
Gender and Media
This thoroughly revised second edition provides a critical overview of the contemporary debates and discussions surrounding gender and mediated communication. The book is divided into three parts: representing, producing, and consuming, with each section made up of three chapters.

The second chapter of each section draws attention to the complexity of the relationship between gender and media, concentrating on the 'why'. The third and final chapter of each section addresses the latest debates in the fields of media and gender, addin...
