The Structure of English Clauses

The Structure of English Clauses

First published in 1980 this book provides a clear and practical introduction to a wide variety of English structures. It concentrates on a large and crucial area of English grammar which covers units of higher rank than words and structures that have verbs rather than nouns as their nuclear elements. Throughout the book David Young focuses on the English language as it is actually spoken. At every point his discussion of syntax is closely integrated with meaning and he pays particular attention to the ways in which speakers of English signal their intensions. The author points out how verbal patterning is meaningful and outlines the criteria used by grammarians to distinguish one structure from another. The result is an analytical framework that can be applied to any real-life text in order to understand its structure. This is a book that will encourage a realistic exploratory and investigative attitude towards the English language. | The Structure of English Clauses

Unpacking Metaphor-related Prepositions in Political Discourse From Polysemous to Powerful

Unpacking Metaphor-related Prepositions in Political Discourse From Polysemous to Powerful

This book explores the context around why English prepositions are used in figurative language more frequently than nouns and verbs using corpus-based evidence to examine the most often used prepositions and how they are employed and for what purpose. While research on cognitive approaches to metaphor has significantly expanded in recent decades little attention has been paid to prepositions as vehicles of figurative language owing to their polysemous complex and inconsistent nature. To bridge this gap Ounis introduces an innovative conceptual framework that integrates conceptual metaphor theory diachronic linguistics and discourse pragmatics. Drawing upon an extensive corpus of American presidential inaugural addresses this book considers the linguistic conceptual pragmatic and contextual dimensions of English prepositions revealing the fascinating interplay between language culture and cognition. This volume will be of interest to scholars in pragmatics metaphor studies English language rhetoric studies and historical linguistics. | Unpacking Metaphor-related Prepositions in Political Discourse From Polysemous to Powerful
