Very Short Introductions

Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring

Jacques Derrida had a major influence on 20th century philosophy and the idea of postmodernism. Challenging some of the deepest assumptions of the Western philosophical tradition, he is most renowned-or condemned-for his engagement with the movement that he called 'deconstruction.'

In this Very Short Introduction, Simon Glendinning explores both the difficulty and significance of the work of Derrida. Glendinning provides a clear sense of the centrality of Derrida's interest in Europe and his relationship to philosophy, to religious history, and to modern democratic politics.

ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

Routledge Handbooks in Linguistics

The Routledge Handbook of Language and Culture presents a comprehensive survey of research on the relationship between language and culture. Now in its second edition, it has been fully revised to provide a clear and accessible introduction to both interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary studies in this research area.This new edition addresses the relationship between language and culture from a variety of perspectives and theoretical frameworks. Organized into four parts, it covers major research traditions in the field, key theoretical approaches and concepts, methods and core topics in the study of the link between language and culture, and directions in applied domains, and brings together 36 carefully commissioned chapters. These cover topical areas including cognitive psychology, cognitive linguistics, cognitive anthropology, linguistic anthropology, cultural anthropology, and sociolinguistics, while tracing their historical development, contemporary theory, research, and practice. Building on Farzad Sharifian's legacy, editors Wolf and Polzenhagen guide readers through emerging directions in the field, demonstrating how language and culture research can benefit applied areas such as intercultural communication, higher education, and translation.Written by a group of prominent scholars from around the globe, The Routledge Handbook of Language and Culture 2e provides a vital resource for scholars and students working in this area.

From the literary agent behind some of today’s most successful authors comes a narrative guide geared specifically to the needs of aspiring and working nonfiction writers, demystifying the world of publishing and offering a practical roadmap to getting your book published. “An invaluable resource.”—Clint Smith, author of How the Word is Passed “I really, really wish I had this book when I was starting out.”—Robert Kolker, author of Hidden Valley Road Alia Hanna Habib remembers what it was like to be on the outside of the publishing world, looking in. Arriving in New York, a first-generation college student with a love of reading and loads of ambition, she had no idea how to break into the business of books. Now, years later, in her career as an agent, she hears from prospective clients who, whether they’re experts at the top of their fields or wholly new to the writing game, consider finding success in publishing to be a mysterious and daunting endeavor. Ever determined to flout the stereotype of agent as gatekeeper, however, Habib is prepared to hand emerging writers the key. Drawing on wisdom from her star-studded list of clients, including Hanif Abdurraqib, Judy Batalion, Merve Emre, Nikole Hannah-Jones, and Clint Smith, Habib provides context and clarity to each step of the publishing process, from the germination of a book idea to finding an agent to represent it, from crafting an engaging proposal to navigating the perils of publicity. Readers will find real-life samples of her authors' pitch letters and book proposals, as well as templates writers can use when querying agents or promoting their work on social media. She also incorporates the advice of trusted industry colleagues—attorneys, accountants, editors, publishers, publicists, and more—gifting readers with a full team of experts to answer all the questions they’ve had about the publishing world, but were too afraid, or didn’t know, to ask. Essential for both the aspiring novice and the seasoned professional, Take It from Me is a guidebook writers will return to again and again. At times laugh-out-loud funny, at others brutally honest about her own experiences in publishing and in life, Habib offers a clear-eyed look at the challenges facing today’s aspiring nonfiction writers and then gives them the comprehensive, expert guidance they need to put those roadblocks in the rearview mirror.

TurboTax For Dummies

intro: Philosophie

Einführung

Theorien und Argumente der Theoretischen Philosophie

An action-oriented guide to revitalizing higher education by putting learning at the center of institutional action. As the challenges to higher education continue to mount, we believe that the surest path forward is a renewed commitment to the primary purpose of colleges and universities: higher learning. In Getting Learning Right, Chris Gallagher, Kristi Girdharry, and Kevin Smith argue that institutions can meet today’s challenges—public skepticism, AI, political pressure—by orienting decision making around a deep understanding of their learners and how learning actually works. The book examines institutional practices undertaken by colleges and universities that get learning right: listening to students; designing learning-focused environments; employing collaborative and project-based learning; helping students build networks of support and opportunity; offering flexible learning pathways; and codesigning and cocreating with students. Each practice is illustrated through key learning concepts, real institutional examples, and firsthand student accounts, whose reports offer fresh insights into more established concepts such as experiential learning and learning transfer. Written for practical and effective use, the book includes reflective questions at the end of each chapter that are designed to facilitate conversation and inform learning-grounded design.

Linguistik in Empirie und Theorie/Empirical and Theoretical Linguistics

Sprache, Geschichte, Politik und Kommunikation

Der deutsche Reformator Martin Luther (1483–1546) wurde in eine Zeit der wachsenden Angst vor vermeintlichen Hexen hineingeboren, die einige Jahrzehnte später in massenhaften Verfolgungen mündete. Geprägt durch Phasen von Krieg, Seuchen, Hungersnöten und klimatischen Extremen entwickelte sich Luther zu einem der schärfsten Kritiker des Aberglaubens seiner Zeit. Trotz seines Bruchs mit der Römisch-Katholischen Kirche distanzierte er sich jedoch nicht von dem aus der scholastischen Theologie stammenden Glauben an Personen mit magischen Kräften.
Stellen vermeintliche „Hexen" für den Menschen des 21. Jahrhunderts offenkundig auf Fantasien beruhende Konstrukte dar, waren sie doch für den Reformator und seine Zeitgenossen eine real existierende Bedrohung am Rande der christlichen Gesellschaft. Ausgehend von dieser Annahme untersucht die vorliegende Arbeit anhand der Predigten Martin Luthers zum Thema „Hexerei" jene des criminis magiae beschuldigten Personen als diskriminierte soziale Gruppe in der Frühen Neuzeit. Dazu werden in einer interdisziplinären Synthese sowohl aktuelle Theorien aus der Diskriminierungsforschung als auch aus der Sprach- und der Geschichtswissenschaft genutzt.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From linguist Adam Aleksic, known as @etymologynerd on social media, comes a captivating exploration of how internet algorithms are transforming language and communication in unprecedented ways. “Packed with fascinating facts, of-the-moment observations, and a sparkling voice, Algospeak is a gift to any word nerd. Deftly covering everything from emoji etymologies and trendbait to Taylor Swift fanilects... Adam Aleksic is the wise, yet accessible internet linguistics oracle we need.”—Amanda Montell, author of The Age of Magical Overthinking and Cultish From “brainrot” memes and incel slang to the trend of adding&nbsp;&nbsp;“-core” to different influencer aesthetics, the internet has ushered in an unprecedented linguistic upheaval. We’re entering an entirely new era of etymology, heralded by the invisible forces driving social media algorithms. Thankfully, Algospeak is here to explain. As a professional linguist, Adam Aleksic understands the gravity of language and the way we use it: he knows the ways it has morphed and changed, how it reflects society, and how, in its everyday usage, we carry centuries of human history on our tongues. As a social media influencer, Aleksic is also intimately familiar with the internet’s reach and how social media impacts the way we engage with one another. New slang emerges and goes viral overnight. Accents are shaped or erased on YouTube. Grammatical rules, loopholes, and patterns surface and transform language as we know it.&nbsp;Our interactions, social norms, and habits—both online and in person—shift into something completely different. As Aleksic uses original surveys, data, and internet archival research to usher us through this new linguistic landscape, he also illuminates how communication is changing in both familiar and unexpected ways. From our use of emojis to sentence structure to the ways younger generations talk about sex and death (see unalive in English and desvivirse in Spanish), we are in a brand-new world, one shaped by algorithms and technology. Algospeak is an energetic, astonishing journey into language, the internet, and what this intersection means for all of us.
