Book Description
Addressing an important aspect of social communication for people with Asperger Syndrome, who use direct, precise language and 'take things literally', this dictionary of idiomatic expressions aims to dispel any confusion that arises from the misinterpretation of language. This book provides explanations of over 5,000 idiomatic expressions plus a guide to their politeness level. Each expression is accompanied by a clear explanation of its meaning and when and how it might be used. The expressions are taken from British and American English, with some Australian expressions included as well. Although the book is primarily intended for people with Asperger Syndrome, it will be useful for anyone who finds problems understanding idiomatic and colloquial English. An essential resource and an informative read, this dictionary will assist in a wide range of situations.

Human existence is complicated. Though we face adversity in its many forms, we also encounter beauty and mercy, love and joy. Thoughtful Expressions explores a variety of phenomena that all of us ponder while engaging with the rigors and blessings of everyday life. Reflecting on topics from the nature of the soul to the corrupting influence of power to the promise of salvation, William Johnson invites us to examine our own experiences through a different lens than we're accustomed to. Every step of our journey is a gift. What happens to our outlook when the road becomes rocky depends on whether we can maintain a sense of gratitude. With wisdom and humor, Johnson's thought-provoking essays encourage us to roll with the punches and see the good in all things.

Book Description
In response to the dominance of Latin as the language of intellectual debate in early modern Europe, regional centers started to develop a new emphasis on vernacular languages and forms of cultural expression. This book shows that the local acts as a mark of distinction in the early modern cultural context. Interdisciplinary in scope, essays examine vernacular strands in the visual arts, architecture and literature from the fourteenth to seventeenth centuries. Contributions focus on change, rather than consistencies, by highlighting the transformative force of the vernacular over time and over different regions, as well as the way the concept of the vernacular itself shifts depending on the historical context. Contributors include James J. Bloom, Jessica E. Buskirk, C. Jean Campbell, Lex Hermans, Sun Jing, Trudy Ko, David A. Levine, Eelco Nagelsmit, Alexandra Onuf, Bart Ramakers, and Jamie L. Smith
