Diuen els investigadors que cada cop s’utilitza més el terme identitat, fet que s’explica per la necessitat d’observar i comprendre fenòmens reals -vells i nous- que s’estan donant entre els individus i que resten encara poc entesos i explicats. Un fet que no deu anar deslligat del contacte cultural entre els distints grups humans que tenen lloc amb els canvis socials experimentats en una societat cada cop més heterogènia...... En aquest marc, el Centre Universitari de Sociolingüística i Comunicació (CUSC) va acollir entre finals del 2005 i principis del 2006 la celebració del cicle de conferències "Llengua i identitat": conferències que, en la seva majoria, es recullen aquí i donen compte de la situació sociolingüística a territoris de parla catalana i a territoris d’altres llengües de l’estat espanyol i de l’estat francès i italià. .El lector hi trobarà un bon conjunt d’idees a càrrec d’autors de primera línia que certament el faran pensar i rumiar sobre les intricades i diverses relacions entre els fenòmens identitaris i els fenòmens lingüístics.
These essays reflect the lively debate about the sectarian movement of the Scrolls. They debate the degree to which the movement was separated from the rest of Judaism, and whether there was one or several watershed moments in the separation. Notable contributions include a cluster of essays on the Teacher of Righteousness and a thorough survey of the archaeology of Qumran. The texts are problematic in historical research because they rely on biblical stereotypes. Nonetheless, possible interpretations can be compared and degrees of probability debated. The debate is significant not only for the sect but for the nature of ancient Judaism.
This book aims to disseminate at an international level a set of innovative studies whose descriptive and applied point of reference is the Catalan language. The volume constitutes a significant contribution to the field of intercultural pragmatics and also to a broad range of grammatical and cognitive issues which have been approached from the pragmatic perspective.
This book offers insights on the study of natural language as a complex adaptive system. It discusses a new way to tackle the problem of language modeling, and provides clues on how the close relation between natural language and some biological structures can be very fruitful for science. The book examines the theoretical framework and then applies its main principles to various areas of linguistics. It discusses applications in language contact, language change, diachronic linguistics, and the potential enhancement of classical approaches to historical linguistics by means of new methodologies used in physics, biology, and agent systems theory. It shows how studying language evolution and change using computational simulations enables to integrate social structures in the evolution of language, and how this can give rise to a new way to approach sociolinguistics. Finally, it explores applications for discourse analysis, semantics and cognition.
This book is about dynamical, social-interactional aspects of the emergence of complexity in language, explained by linguists, cognitivists, and modelers.
Many people have seen angels, apparitions of deceased loved ones, and ascended masters, as you'll read in this second collection of true stories by best-selling author Doreen Virtue, Ph.D. You'll read beautiful descriptions of what they saw, and learn about the vital messages imparted by these angels. In Angel Visions II, you'll also read more remarkable stories about people who received life-saving messages from their deceased loved ones during dreams, and about helpful strangers who appeared from out of nowhere during a crisis and then suddenly disappeared. In addition, you'll learn about fascinating scientific research that is verifying the reality of angel encounters. Doreen also gives you step-by-step instructions that she has successfully employed in her popular workshops to help YOU see and visually connect with your angels, too.
Unifying Themes in Complex Systems is a well-established series of carefully edited conference proceedings that serve to document and archive the progress made regarding cross-fertilization in this field. The International Conference on Complex Systems (ICCS) creates a unique atmosphere for scientists from all fields, engineers, physicians, executives, and a host of other professionals, allowing them to explore common themes and applications of complex systems science. With this new volume, Unifying Themes in Complex Systems continues to establish common ground between the wide-ranging domains of complex systems science.
