Digital Orality
This volume showcases innovative research on dialectal, vernacular, and other forms of “oral,” speech-like writing in digital spaces. The shift from a predominantly print culture to a digital culture is shaping people's identities and relationships to one another in important ways. Using examples from distinct international contexts and language varieties (kiAmu, Lebanese, Ettounsi, Shanghai Wu, Welsh English, and varieties of American English) the authors examine how people use unexpected codes, scripts, and spellings to say something about who they are or aspire to be. This book will be of particular interest to students and scholars interested in the impact of social media on language use, style, and orthography, as well as those with a broader interest in literacy, communication, language contact, and language change.
Beowulf Unlocked
The most original and ground-breaking work on Beowulf in several decades, this book uses “lexomic” methods that blend computer-assisted statistical analysis with traditional approaches to reveal new and surprising information about the construction and sources of the greatest surviving Old English poem. Techniques of cluster analysis identify patterns of vocabulary distribution that indicate robust similarities and differences among segments of the poem. The correlation of these patterns with knowledge gained from source-study, philological analysis, and neglected previous scholarship sheds new light on the material of which Beowulf was made and the way it was composed. The implications of this investigation for the dating, structure, and cultural context of Beowulf will overturn the current scholarly consensus and significantly improve our understanding of the poem, its nature, and origins.
Media in Church and Mission:
Although written before much of the revolution in digital media, this book provides a lot of useful strategic input for those involved in media and Scripture Engagement.
Supertight
Supertight is an exploration of high-density urban life and reducing the footprint of cites through adaptations in design and behavior. Tightness is a positive urban quality, examined through the observations of designers, with a focus on the cities of Asia. The rapidly growing large cities of Asia are critical to understanding our future footprint. Asian cities provide insights into new ways of being densely urbanised. The by-product of this unprecedented metropolitan convergence will be the emergence of new urbanisms and new architectures, new models for living and making culture. The Supertight refers to the small, intense, robust and hyper-condensed spaces that emerge as a by-product of ...
El llegat dels filisteus
Un membre destacat del govern català rep una visita inesperada: un home li reclama amb insistència el retorn del "llegat dels filisteus". Apressat per les tasques de govern, encarrega a Manu Uriarte, un amic llibreter de vell, que li busqui el llibre. Aquest és arrossegat per una voràgine d'imprevistos, que esquitxen el mateix polític i provoquen una crisi de govern: el "cas Carod". L'aventura èpica, el relat mític, la crònica periodística, el dietari i fins i tot el thriller, es combinen en aquest relat trepidant teixit sobre el canemàs de la vida quotidiana que portarà el lector a preguntar-se pels límits de la realitat. Qui eren i què van fer els primers grans viatgers occidentals que van posar els peus a l'Àfrica? Com és que van seduir homes com l'arquitecte Gaudí, el poeta Verdaguer o el diplomàtic Eduard Toda? D'on venien els filisteus i com és que encara avui dia hi ha algú capaç d'arriscar la vida per emparar-se dels seus tresors? De quina manera la trama filistea es va assentar al Sahra Occidental i va anar a parar als camps de refugiats del desert de Tindouf, a Algèria, i d'allà a casa d'en Carod-Rovira?
