        Their aim has been to teach English to learners of all ages taking into account the innate language instict people have and try to facilitate the learning process benefiting from this. In that direction, verb-based language structures are taught which highlight the linguistic mechanisms that are naturally activated in the learner's linguistic resources. By doing so, learning a foreign language comes easy, owing to assisting the linguistic mechanism which leads to speaking complete and meaningful phrases right from the very first lesson through the dynamic approach of systematic questioning and answering.

        Body Work

        The Radical Power of Personal Narrative

        by Melissa Febos,

        In this bold and exhilarating mix of memoir and writing guide, Melissa Febos tackles the emotional, psychological, and physical work of writing intimately while offering an utterly fresh examination of the storyteller's life and the challenges it presents. How do we write about the relationships that have formed us? How do we describe our bodies, their desires and traumas? What does it mean to have your writing, or living, dismissed as "navel-gazing"-or else hailed as "so brave, so raw"? And to whom, in the end, do our most intimate stories belong? Drawing on her journey from aspiring writer to acclaimed author and writing professor-via addiction and recovery, sex work and academia-Melissa Febos has created a captivating guide to the writing life, and a brilliantly unusual exploration of subjectivity, privacy, and the power of divulgence. Candid and inspiring, Body Work will empower readers and writers alike, offering ideas-and occasional notes of caution-to anyone who has ever hoped to see their true self reflecting back from the open page.

        Pragmatik als Basis von Semantik und Syntax
        September 1975

        Pragmatik als Basis von Semantik und Syntax

        by Hans Julius Schneider

        Schneider geht von der Einsicht aus, daß das Sprechen und die Sprache nicht als ein bloßer Ausdruck eines losgelösten Bewußtseinsprozesses, sondern als ein Handeln verstanden werden müssen (Peirce, Mead, Wittgenstein, Searle). Seine Untersuchung will die Frage beantworten, welche Konsequenzen diese Einsicht für die gegenwärtig diskutierten linguistischen Theorien hat. Genauer: In welchem Licht erscheint, wenn man diese Einsicht ernst nimmt, das Verhältnis der Komponenten Syntax, Semantik und Pragmatik zueinander? Schneider fragt dabei von der Semantik aus. Wie kann eine linguistische Semantik aussehen und welche Rolle hat sie innerhalb der linguistischen Theorie zu spielen? Er behandelt die verschiedenen Konzeptionen der interpretativen Semantik und zeigt, wie Probleme linguistischer Theoriebildung mit sprachphilosophischen Fragen verkettet sind. Seine Hauptthesen lauten: Die semantische Komponente einer Sprachtheorie muß nicht nur die Basis für die Syntax abgeben, sondern Semantik und Syntax müssen pragmatisch begründet werden. Das auf formalistischem Weg entwickelte Maß an logischer Exaktheit darf dabei nicht ohne Not aufgegeben werden. Es geht vielmehr gerade darum, einen Zusammenhang zwischen sprachlichem Handeln (pragmatischen Funktionen) und formalen Beschreibungsmitteln (syntaktischen Funktionen) herzustellen.

        Geoffrey Hill and the ends of poetry

        by Tom Docherty

        The idea of the end is an essential motivic force in the poetry of Geoffrey Hill (1932-2016). This book shows that Hill's poems are characteristically 'end-directed'. They tend towards consummations of all kinds: from the marriages of meanings in puns, or of words in repeating figures and rhymes, to syntactical and formal finalities. The recognition of failure to reach such ends provides its own impetus to Hill's poetry. This is the first book on Hill to take account of his last works. It is a significant contribution to the study of Hill's poems, offering a new thematic reading of his entire body of work. By using Hill's work as an example, the book also touches on questions of poetry's ultimate value: what are its ends and where does it wish to end up?

        What to Learn from Our Body Awareness

        by Adrian Mühlebach

        Nothing is closer to us than our body ­ and yet we are only l ittle or not at all aware of it! Our body often plays the deci­sive role in our life: as the basis of our existence, in the regu­lation of our well­being as well as in our behavior control. Nevertheless, we perceive it far too seldom attentively. Our body perception is a dynamic, circular, self­changing pro­cess, because it is only through individually and collectively created ideas that we can turn body sensations into body perceptions. In this respect, our body perception is diffcult to grasp (scientifcally), since it is barely accessible via ob­jective observation, but exists only in our subjective con­sciousness. In this book, body perception is therefore exam­ined from the perspective of various disciplines such as philosophy, psychology, physiology, and history, in order to refect on its signifcance for our lives and to demonstrate its usefulness in view of the challenges of our time.

        In defence of councillors

        by Colin Copus

        In defence of councillors is an unashamed defence of local representative democracy and of those elected to serve as councillors from the often ill-informed, ill-judged and inaccurate criticism made by the media, government and public, of councillors' personal, political and professional roles. By using qualitative research from a number of related projects, the book examines the roles, functions and responsibilities of councillors and the expectations placed upon them by citizens, communities and government. It also examines the impact council membership has on other facets of the councillor's life. The book examines how councillors develop strategies to overcome the constraints and restrictions on their office so as to be able to govern their communities, balance their political and public life and democratise and hold to account a vast array of unelected bodies that spend public money and develop public policy without the electoral mandate and legitimacy held by our councillors. ;

        Structural reform of British local government

        Rhetoric and reality

        by Michael Chisholm

        During the 1990s, the structure of local government in Scotland and Wales was completely reorganised by Acts of Parliament. Under other legislation, and in response to recommendations from the Local Government Commission, there was a partial reorganisation in shire England. This is the only study which examines these reforms in one volume. Running through this study is the contrast between the rhetoric used to justify replacing counties and districts by new unitary authorities and the realities of local government. The book reviews the reasons for the reforms, the processes and outcomes in the three countries, and the nature of the evidence which was available for the advantages and disadvantages of reorganisation. Two chapters compare the prior assessments with the actuality, and the final chapter discusses some important lessons for national governance. This is the only study written by someone who was directly involved in the structural review, as a member of the Local Government Commission, and it combines this special experience with a wealth of information from many sources. The book will be a key text for teachers and students of local government and also important for those studying public administration, government and politics at the second or third year undergraduate level. There should also be a wide readership in local government circles and among MPs and those concerned with public life. ;

        Air empire

        British imperial civil aviation, 1919–39

        by Gordon Pirie, Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie

        Air empire is a fresh study of civil aviation as a tool of late British imperialism. The first pioneering flights across the British empire in 1919-20 were flag-waving adventures that recreated an era of plucky British maritime exploration and conquest. Britain's development of international air routes and services was approved, organised and celebrated largely in London; there was some resistance in and beyond the subordinate colonies and dominions. Negotiating the financing and geopolitics of regular commercial air service delayed its inception until the 1930s. Technological, managerial and logistical problems also meant that Britain was slow into the air and slow in the air. Propaganda concealed underperformance and criticism. The study uses archival sources, biographies, industry magazines and newspapers to chronicle the disputed progress toward air empire. The rhetoric behind imperial air service offers a glimpse of late imperial hopes, fears, attitudes and style. Empire air service had emotional appeal and symbolic value, but disappointed in practice.
