Cognitive Semiotics - Dr Per Aage Brandt - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

Cognitive Semiotics - Dr Per Aage Brandt - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

Interrogating the relatively new field of cognitive semiotics, this book explores shared issues in cognitive science and semiotics. Building on research from recent decades, Per Aage Brandt investigates the potential of a cognitive semiotic approach to enhance our understanding of language, thought and semiosis in general.Introducing a critical, non-standard approach both to cognitive science and to semiotics, this book discusses the understanding of meaning and mind through four major dimensions; mental architecture, mental spaces, discourse coherence and eco-organization. Encompassing a rich variety of topics and debates, Cognitive Semiotics outlines several bridges between ''continental'' and ''analytic'' thinking in the study of semantics, pragmatics, discourse and the philosophy of language and mind.

French Populism and Discourses on Secularism - Per-Erik Nilsson - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

French Populism and Discourses on Secularism - Per-Erik Nilsson - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

Per-Erik Nilsson takes a religious studies approach to analyse the intersections of secularism, nationhood and populism in contemporary France. This book provides insight into the French and European radical-nationalist ideology and activism, and contributes to our understanding of the complex relationship between religion and the state in contemporary Europe and beyond. When Marine Le Pen became the leader of the radical nationalist and populist party National Front in 2011, she made clear that secularism was a core value of party. This signalled a significant shift in the party''s rhetorical strategies and previous reluctance to embrace secularism. Nilsson argues that this conspicuous appropriation first came about as a logical result of the obsession of the established mainstream political parties and news media with questions of secularism, national identity and Islam. He shows that a key player in understanding the National Front’s change is the web-based journal Riposte Laïque , which has become a central actor in French radical-nationalist and anti-Muslim web and street-based activism. For the first time, this source is examined in order to understand French radical nationalists'' recent appropriation of secularism, as well as debates on secularism, national identity and Islam in France more broadly.

Towards Schooling for 21st Century - Per Dalin - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

Towards Schooling for 21st Century - Per Dalin - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

An analysis of the growth economy, this book traces the causes of the present crisis in the modern market system, initiated two centuries ago with the establishment of the market economy system which has led to the present growth economy. It concludes that a true democracy can only be derived from a synthesis of the democratic and socialist traditions, along with the radical green, feminist and libertarian ideologies. To this end, this text offers a new vision of an inclusive democracy.

The Australian Army in World War I - Robert Fleming - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

The Australian Army in World War I - Robert Fleming - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

The importance of the Australian contribution to the Allied war effort during World War I should never be underestimated. Some 400,000 Australians volunteered for active duty, an astonishing 13 per cent of the entire (white) male population, a number so great that the Australian government was never forced to rely on conscription. Casualties were an astonishing 52 per cent of all those who served, ensuring that the effects of the war would be felt long after the armistice. In particular, their epic endeavour at Gallipoli in 1915 was the nation''s founding legend, and the ANZACs went on to distinguish themselves both on the Western Front and in General Allenby''s great cavalry campaign against the Turks in the Middle East. Their uniforms and insignia were also significantly different from those of the British Army and provide the basis for a unique set of artwork plates.

Community Orchards Handbook - Sue Clifford - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

Community Orchards Handbook - Sue Clifford - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

A guide on how to start your own community orchard - from getting support and tackling legal issues to organising working parties and selling produce. Since the 1950s we have lost 63 per cent of our orchards through development or neglect, and even though we have been able to grow 3,000 varieties of apple in England, almost 70 per cent of apples we buy are imported. Common Ground has worked to interest local communities in creating and saving orchards to provide fruit and nuts, havens for wildlife and places of beauty. The Community Orchards Handbook shows how to start your own Community Orchard, from getting support and tackling legal issues, to organising work, selling produce and enjoying the fruits of your work together. It gives suggestions on ‘apple mapping’ and saving local varieties, and practical advice on planting, harvesting and safeguarding your orchard. It also includes a comprehensive resources section and is full of examples of diverse Community Orchard projects across the UK.

AV-8B Harrier II Units of Operation Iraqi Freedom I-VI - Lon O. Nordeen - GardnersGXC - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

AV-8B Harrier II Units of Operation Iraqi Freedom I-VI - Lon O. Nordeen - GardnersGXC - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing Plc - Plusbog.dk

The AV-8B Harrier was, and still is, the only tactical aircraft that can deploy with the US Marine Corps on amphibious assault ships and provide air cover and close air support separate from large deck aircraft carriers. Having seen action during Operation Desert Storm in 1991, the Harrier II returned to the theatre from March 2003 as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. In the initial conflict some 76 AV-8Bs were deployed, providing more than 40 per cent of the 3rd Marine Air Wing’s fixed-wing offensive firepower. Around 60 of these aircraft were sea-based aboard four ‘Harrier Carriers’, while a unit flew jets from Ahmed al Jaber, in Kuwait. Unlike in 1991, when Harrier IIs employed unguided weapons, 79 per cent of the ordnance dropped was precision-guided. This was primarily due to the AV-8B’s upgrading to Night Attack or radar-equipped configuration, and the introduction of the Litening II targeting pod. Following the occupation of Iraq by Coalition troops, Harrier IIs remained in-theatre supporting anti-insurgent operations through to 2008 as part of OIF II-VI.
