    de Misha Becker, Kamil Ud Deen ...

  • The Acquisition of Syntactic Structure

    Animacy and Thematic Alignment

    de Misha Becker ...
    Series Libro 141 - Cambridge Studies in Linguistics
    This book explains a well-known puzzle that helped catalyze the establishment of generative syntax: how children tease apart the different syntactic structures associated with sentences like John is easy/eager to please. The answer lies in animacy: taking the premise that subjects are animate, the book argues that children can exploit the occurrence of an inanimate subject as a cue to a non ... Leer más

    de Susan Blackmore ...
    Series series Popular Science
    Humans are extraordinary creatures, with the unique ability among animals to imitate and so copy from one another ideas, habits, skills, behaviours, inventions, songs, and stories. These are all memes, a term first coined by Richard Dawkins in 1976 in his book The Selfish Gene. Memes, like genes, are replicators, and this enthralling book is an investigation of whether this link between genes and ... Leer más

  • The Language Myth

    Why Language Is Not an Instinct

    de Vyvyan Evans ...
    Language is central to our lives, the cultural tool that arguably sets us apart from other species. Some scientists have argued that language is innate, a type of unique human 'instinct' pre-programmed in us from birth. In this book, Vyvyan Evans argues that this received wisdom is, in fact, a myth. Debunking the notion of a language 'instinct', Evans demonstrates that language is related to other ... Leer más

    de George Yule ...
    Series series Second Language Acquisition Research Series
    Referential communication is the term given to communicative acts, generally spoken, in which some kind of information is exchanged between one speaker and another. This information exchange is typically dependent on successful acts of reference, whereby entities (human and non-human) are identified (by naming or describing), are located or moved relative to other entities (by giving instructions ...

  • How Language Began

    Gesture and Speech in Human Evolution

    de David McNeill ...
    Series series Approaches to the Evolution of Language
    Human language is not the same as human speech. We use gestures and signs to communicate alongside, or instead of, speaking. Yet gestures and speech are processed in the same areas of the human brain, and the study of how both have evolved is central to research on the origins of human communication. Written by one of the pioneers of the field, this is the first book to explain how speech and ... Leer más

  • The Ecology and Semiotics of Language Learning

    A Sociocultural Perspective

    de Leo van Lier ...
    Series Libro 3 - Educational Linguistics
    In this book I try to give a coherent and consistent overview of what an ecological approach to language learning might look like. This is not a fully fledged grand theory that aims to provide an explanation of everything, but an attempt to provide a rationale for taking an ecological world view and applying it to language education, which I regard as one of the most important of all human ...

    The Literary Agenda

    de Maryanne Wolf ...
    Series series The Literary Agenda
    The Literary Agenda is a series of short polemical monographs about the importance of literature and of reading in the wider world and about the state of literary education inside schools and universities. The category of 'the literary' has always been contentious. What is clear, however, is how increasingly it is dismissed or is unrecognised as a way of thinking or an arena for thought. It is ...
