A Vocabulary of Kinship Terms in New West Iranian Dialects

Category : Language Arts & Disciplines

Pages : 0
Book Description
This book is the first of its kind in providing a lexicon of kinship terms prevalent in the Western dialects of Iran, with a parallel glossary in English. It engages the dialects and their terminology in the English language to bring to purview how language imitates life, particularly in rural settings. Subsequently, it gives a glimpse into the irrefutable relation that exists between culture and word usage. In doing so, it serves as a cultural manifesto as it pertains to Persian language, poetics, and applied linguistics and is relevant to linguists, cultural scholars, Anthropologists and students in Persian language, literature, and culture and certainly all Iranian languages.

Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
This book presents a multidisciplinary theoretical model of cultural conceptualisations and language. Viewing language as firmly grounded in cultural cognition, the model draws on analytical tools and theoretical advancements in several disciplines, including cognitive linguistics, cognitive anthropology, anthropological linguistics, distributed cognition, complexity science, and cognitive psychology. The result is a framework that has significant implications for those disciplines as well as for applied linguistics. Applications of the model to intercultural communication, cross-cultural pragmatics, English as an International Language/World Englishes, and political discourse analysis are explored in detail.

Archaeology and Language I
Author: Roger BlenchPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134828772
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 411
Book Description
Archaeology and Language I represents groundbreaking work in synthesizing two disciplines that are now seen as interlinked: linguistics and archaeology. This volume is the first of a three-part survey of innovative results emerging from their combination. Archaeology and historical linguistics have largely pursued separate tracks until recently, although their goals can be very similar. While there is a new awareness that these disciplines can be used to complement one another, both rigorous methodological awareness and detailed case-studies are still lacking in literature. Archaeology and Language I aims to fill this lacuna. Exploring a wide range of techniques developed by specialists in each discipline, this first volume deals with broad theoretical and methodological issues and provides an indispensable background to the detail of the studies presented in volumes II and III. This collection deals with the controversial question of the origin of language, the validity of deep-level reconstruction, the sociolinguistic modelling of prehistory and the use and value of oral tradition.
