Lee R: How Words Get Good / B

How Words Get Good

The Story of Making a Book

A newly updated edition of the definitive guide for budding economists, with a new chapter of advice for young professors. In clear, accessible language—a model for what he advocates—A Guide for the Young Economist shows how to make written and oral presentations both inviting and effective. William Thomson covers the basics of clear exposition, including such nuts-and-bolts topics as titling papers, writing abstracts, presenting research results, and holding an audience’s attention. This book is an invaluable guide for young economists working on their dissertations, preparing their first articles for submission to professional journals, getting ready for their first presentations at conferences and job seminars, or facing their first refereeing assignments. In this new edition, the author also includes a new chapter of advice written especially for those young economists who have just received their PhDs.

Power Relations in Learning Communities

Engaging with Ethics in Multilingual Learning Communities

In The Philosophy of Language in Islamic Legal Theory Nora Kalbarczyk examines the influential jurisprudential work al-Maḥṣūl fī ʿilm uṣūl al-fiqh (d. 1210). By means of a detailed analysis of the linguistic treatise of this work she highlights the impact of the philosophical tradition on Islamic legal theory (uṣūl al-fiqh) in the so-called post-Avicennian era (11th-14th c.). Her main focus lies on a classification of signification (dalāla) that can be traced back to Ibn Sīnā (lat. Avicenna, d. 1037): a word may signify a meaning by way of congruence (muṭābaqa), containment (taḍammun) or implication (iltizām). The author shows how Faḫr ad-dīn ar-Rāzī develops - on the basis of the Avicennian theory of signification - a hermeneutic toolbox which is not only relevant in the context of Arabic philosophy but also useful for different questions of Islamic legal theory.

Volume 2: Sociolinguistics of Protesting

Contributions to the Sociology of Language [CSL]

Contemporary sociolinguistic theorizing is concerned with the study of social solidarity in differential contexts of power, so it must engage with protesting discourses and practices. In two volumes, 
 Sociolinguistics of Protesting
 addresses the socio-discursivity of protesting from different geopolitical perspectives and illustrates how protests are socio-semiotically organized and narrated.
 &nbsp;Volume 1
 critically rethinks protest as a central sociolinguistic practice rather than an exception to an imagined social order. Drawing on transdisciplinary and various case studies - from the Arab revolutions to Hong Kong's Lennon Walls and South Africa's student uprisings - this volume explores how language, embodiment, and space intersect in acts of resistance. It is the first of a two-volume set that reshapes the field's understanding of language in times of crisis and uprising. With a foreword by Mariem Guellouz.
 &nbsp;
 In 
 Volume 2
 (the current volume), scholars explore the complex intersections between protest, language, and decolonial thought. It challenges dominant linguistic ideologies by uncovering how language is wielded, contested, and reimagined in protests against racial, gendered, and colonial violence. From Black feminist activism in the U.S. to anti-mining movements in South Africa and pandemic protests in Chile, the chapters examine how diverse (embodied) linguistic practices resist dominant power structures and give voice to marginalized communities. With a foreword by Nick Faraclas.

The TLS Guide to Good Writing

A fascinating exploration of how to use the power of storytelling to create irresistible pitches, build passionate brand loyalty, motivate teams and lead with charisma. 'Will Storr is a genius' Rory Sutherland 'A captivating and enlightening read . . Will Storr is an unusually talented and insightful writer' Adam Grant 'Storr shares profound insights' Seth Godin 'Whip smart, insightful and ridiculously entertaining' Jimmy Carr 'Shows how storytelling is the key to success in business, politics and even personal relationships.' The Times ____________________________________________________ Using the latest findings from social psychology, evolutionary psychology, organisational psychology and neuroscience, A Story is a Deal argues that we won't unlock the true power of story if we treat it merely as something we read on a page, see on a screen or hear in a speech. Storr shows how successful stories shape identities, which changes beliefs, drives action and achieves extraordinary results. With examples ranging from Aztec rituals to Apple's legendary advertising successes (and long-forgotten fails), A Story is a Deal lays out a revolutionary new method for creating the most persuasive messaging: by harnessing the power of our storytelling brains. _____________________________________________________ 'Intensely original and powerfully practical' Jonah Berger 'A fascinating insight into the human mind' Levinson Wood 'A very clever book that makes the reader feel cleverer with every page' Daniel Finkelstein 'Powerfully persuasive and urgently practical' Bruce Daisley 'Will Storr has a unique ability to explain our social world in ways that would never otherwise occur' Jack Dee

Critical Approaches in Applied Linguistics [CRITAL]

Polarisation, the ideological positioning at extreme ends of a continuum actively combating opposite views, is a major concern these days as it spreads beyond the political sphere and permeates public discourse on current socio-political issues. Critical socio-cognitive approaches to discourse analysis provide excellent conceptual and analytical tools to examine such a complex phenomenon. The chapters in this volume explore and identify the most common polarisation strategies for ideological positioning in a variety of contexts, such as climate change, abortion, and gender, as well as in a wide range of digital media, including blogs, social media, corporate websites, and forums.

Language, Cognition and Social Practice

Polarised Discourse

How can you tell if someone is lying to you? Is it possible to separate the truth from lies in what people say? And when should you trust what you hear? Everyone lies. We lie to our family, friends, colleagues and strangers. But some lies are extremely damaging. They can destroy relationships, ruin lives and create distrust and discord. These lies need to be detected. And they can be, if we know how to listen out for them. Forensic linguist Dr Kirsty King knows that, as convincing as some liars might be, their lies can be exposed by paying close attention to the language they use. It is possible for us to detect whether someone is being deceptive by listening out for key linguistic indicators in the way that they speak and the things that they say. Drawing on research from forensic linguistics and psychology, this book presents real-life case studies and stories to show you how language can reveal the liars amongst us: from partners or colleagues misleading us to killers trying to get away with murder. The Language of Lies is an accessible toolkit that will help you decide whether to believe what you hear or not.
