Book Description
The aim of this volume is to give voice to the various and different perspectives in the investigation of tourism discourse in its written, spoken, and visual aspects. The chapters particularly focus on the interaction between the participants involved in the tourism practices, that is the promoters of tourist destinations, on the one hand, and tourists or prospective tourists on the other. In this dialogic interaction, tourism discourse, while representing and producing tourism as a global cultural industry, shows it to be on the move. Language movement in the tourism experience is here highlighted in the various methodological approaches and viewpoints offered by the investigations gathered in this volume.

Re-viewing Space

ISBN: 9783110185201
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
"Re-Viewing Space. Figurative Language in Architects' Assessment of Built Space draws attention to the structure of mind as shown by the pervasiveness of figurative language in all kinds of discourse. It integrates insights from cognitive theory with discourse analytic procedures in order to explore the role of metaphor in real communication. Bearing in mind that an understanding of the relationship between conceptual schemas and linguistic expressions cannot be effected without considering the cultural contexts in which metaphors occur, this book is concerned with exploring the kind of metaphors used by architects for assessing design solutions in building reviews."--BOOK JACKET.

Mysterious Mozart
Author: Philippe SollersPublisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 0252035461
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Both a beguiling portrait of the artist and an idiosyncratic self-portrait of the author, Mysterious Mozart is Philippe Sollers's alternately oblique and searingly direct interpretation of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's oeuvre and lasting mystique, audaciously reformulated for the postmodern age. With a mix of slang, abstractions, quotations, first- and third-person narratives, and blunt opinion, French writer and critic Philippe Sollers taps into Mozart's playful correspondence and the lesser-known pieces of his enormous repertoire to analyze the popularity and public perceptions of his music. Detailing Mozart's drive to continue producing masterpieces even when saddled with debt and riddled with illness and anxiety, Sollers powerfully and meticulously analyzes Mozart's seven last great operas using a psychoanalytical approach to the characters' relationships. As Sollers explores themes of constancy, prodigy, freedom, and religion, he offers up bits of his own history, revealing his affinity for the creative geniuses of the eighteenth century and a yearning to bring that era's utopian freedom to life in contemporary times. What emerges is an inimitable portrait of a man and a musician whose greatest gift is a quirky companionability, a warm and mysterious appeal that distinguishes Mozart from other great composers and is brilliantly echoed by Sollers's artful tangle of narrative.
