Discurso y conocimiento
Author: Teun van Dijk
Publisher: Editorial GEDISA
ISBN: 8416572720
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 540
Book Description
Discurso y conocimiento se trata de un libro sobre las maneras que tienen los usuarios del lenguaje en gestionar el conocimiento en el discurso. Trata sobre el tipo de conocimiento general, sociocultural, que periodistas y lectores, entre muchos otros usuarios del lenguaje, han de tener para ser capaces de escribir o leer y comprender una noticia, para participar en una conversación, para dictar una clase o participar en reuniones profesionales, así como para muchos otros géneros de discursos. Hay muchos miles de libros sobre conocimiento, en variadas disciplinas, y muchos cientos de libros sobre discurso. Sin embargo, pese a las múltiples e interesantes relaciones entre las dos nociones, no existe ni siquiera una monografía que, sistemáticamente, se centre en el estudio de esas relaciones. La intención de este libro es, justamente, hacer eso. En esta monografía hemos mostrado, necesariamente a los más altos y, por lo tanto, más superficiales niveles, que el estudio del conocimiento se debe llevar a cabo de una manera profundamente integrada, como acabamos de mostrar en las últimas décadas para el estudio del discurso.

The Routledge Handbook of Hispanic Applied Linguistics
Author: Manel Lacorte
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134691416
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 717
Book Description
This book provides a comprehensive overview of Hispanic applied linguistics, allowing students to understand the field from a variety of perspectives and offering insight into the ever-growing number of professional opportunies afforded to Spanish language program graduates. The goal of this book is to re-contextualize the notion of applied linguistics as simply the application of theoretical linguistic concepts to practical settings and to consider it as its own field that addresses language-based issues and problems in a real-world context. The book is organized into five parts: 1) perspectives on learning Spanish 2) issues and environments in Spanish teaching 3) Spanish in the professions 4) the discourses of Spanish and 5) social and political contexts for Spanish. The book’s all-inclusive coverage gives students the theoretical and sociocultural context for study in Hispanic applied linguistics while offering practical information on its application in the professional sector.

Sociedad y discurso:
Author: Teun A. Van Dijk
Publisher: Editorial GEDISA
ISBN: 8497844610
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : es
Pages : 345
Book Description
Van Dijk presenta aquí una nueva teoría del contexto que pretende explicar cómo los textos y las conversaciones se adaptan a su contexto o entorno social. En lugar de la relación directa que habitualmente se establece entre sociedad y discurso, el autor sostiene en cambio que lo que se da es una influencia indirecta y que depende de cómo los propios usuarios ‘definen’ la situación comunicativa en la que están inmersos. El nuevo concepto que introduce Van Dijk para estas definiciones es el de modelos de contexto. Estos modelos controlan toda la producción y la comprensión lingüística y explican cómo el discurso se construye como apropiado en cada situación. Estos modelos constituyen el eslabón perdido entre el lenguaje y la sociedad, y que ha permanecido ignorado hasta ahora tanto por la pragmática como por la sociolingüística. En este libro interdisciplinario, la nueva teoría del contexto se desarrolla desde la perspectiva de la psicología social, de la sociología y de la antropología.. La teoría se aplica al dominio de la política, incluyendo el debate sobre la guerra en Irak, donde los discursos de los líderes políticos constituyen un estudio de caso para un minucioso análisis contextual. En otro libro publicado por Gedisa, Discurso y Contexto, Teun A. van Dijk presenta una teoría multidisciplinaria del contexto y el modo en que el contexto influye sobre el discurso y el uso lingüístico, con un enfoque especial sobre la noción de contexto en la lingüística sistémica, en la psicología cognitiva y en la sociolingüística.

Dialogue in Spanish
Author: Dale April Koike
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9027210241
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 341
Book Description
"Dialogue in Spanish" provides a strong theoretical and empirical foundation for the study of dialogue. This edited collection of twelve original studies contributes to a broad comprehension of dialogue in two general contexts: personal interactions among friends and family; and public speech, such as political debates, medical interviews, court translations and service encounters. The studies, written by authors from Canada, Mexico, Spain, Sweden, the United States and Venezuela, present an in-depth look at issues and elements of dialogue such as irony, narrativity, discourse markers, coherence, conflict and expectations. Background research on dialogue grounds the articles in such areas as discourse analysis, pragmatics, philosophy, sociology, anthropology and linguistics. The book will prove useful to those who study conversational interaction, pragmatics, and discourse analysis as applied to various functions and contexts, and it will be of particular interest to researchers and students of linguistics, anthropology, sociology, philosophy, communications and education.

Appliable Linguistics and Social Semiotics
Author: David Caldwell
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350109304
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 545
Book Description
Exploring the relationship between theory and practice in Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), this volume offers a state-of-the-art overview of Appliable Linguistics. Featuring both internationally-renowned scholars and rising stars from Argentina, Australia, Austria, Brazil, Chile, Denmark, Indonesia, New Zealand, Singapore and the USA, Appliable Linguistics and Social Semiotics examines the theoretical insights, questions, and developments that have emerged from the application of Systemic Functional theory to a range of fields. Beyond simply reporting on the application of SFL to particular sites of communication, both linguistic and semiotic, this volume demonstrates how SFL has critiqued, developed and transformed theory and practice and foregrounds the implications of application for Systemic Functional theory itself. Covering established fields for application, such as education, medicine and media, to relatively uncharted areas, such as software design and extremist propaganda, this volume provides an overview of recent linguistic and semiotic innovations informed by SFL and examines the advances that have been made from many years of productive dialogue between theory and practice.

Political Discourse as Dialogue
Author: Adriana Bolívar
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317192451
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
We are witnessing the collapse of democracies in many parts of the world and a general tendency to the resurgence of right-wing and left-wing populisms led by authoritarian leaders. This book centres on the political dialogue in one of these democracies. The focus is on Venezuela, the rich Latin American oil producing country, and its transformation from a stable democracy to a very unstable and controversial revolution in which the dialogue has been occupied by only one party for 18 years. The central characters of the book are Hugo Chávez, who remained in power for 14 years as the main speaker and controller, and the people who either followed or opposed him in Venezuela and other countries. Contrary to critical analyses which are mainly based on social representations that conceive dialogue as implicit or normative, this book proposes a dialogue-centred approach, which articulates linguistics, conversation analysis, socio-pragmatics and political science from a critical perspective, and offers the theoretical foundations and procedures for analysing micro dialogues between specific persons and the macro social dialogue, which unveils the processes of domination and resistance to power. The book will be useful for scholars and students of linguistics, media, communication studies and political science wishing to learn more about dialogue in political interaction.
