Scholarly Pathways
Knowledge Transfer and Knowledge Exchange in Academia
Inbunden, Engelska, 2020

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
With the increasing use of digital technologies in academic and research settings, scholars worldwide are engaging in new pathways for knowledge dissemination. Indeed, recent technological developments have made a dramatic change to the ways in which scholars nowadays access, distribute and disseminate their research work. The migration of traditional print genres to digital environments has caused phenomena of remediation, transmediality and genre hybridity. Moreover, new research-oriented genres on the Internet have emerged as a result of the multiple accountabilities of scientific output today. Thus, these scholarly pathways and transformative practices have opened up new and multiple perspectives and possibilities that are worth investigating.This volume explores knowledge dissemination practices according to two main orientations; first, with respect to the target audience, especially scholars vs. novices. Second in relation to the channels, especially multimodal and web-based platforms, and changing strategies such as popularization resources.

Gender issues
Translating and mediating languages, cultures and societies
Inbunden, Engelska, 2021
979 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
The starting point of this publication is that in LSP domains many studies have been devoted to the languages of law, medicine, media, tourism, advertising, arts and business, but they have not fully exploited the gender perspective which can disclose new insights into the use of specialized lexicon, the role of translation, the influence of cultural aspects, and social habits and values in the transmission of equality or in-equality notions. This volume aims at bridging the gap existing between LSP translation and gender issues, offering a broad view of research on translation and gender/sexuality, LSP and the professional world. The purpose is to broaden the discussion on gender awareness in specialized language and translation, to pinpoint gender issues in audiovisual translation, to analyse gendered language in the media and advertising, and last but not least, to consider gender differences reiterated through language in specific domains.

This volume aims to provide information aboutand interpretations of the concept of evidentialitylexically realized with certain verbs andapplied to the genre of medical posters. Morespecifically, issues relating to how knowledgeis conveyed through language will be discussedand how evidence for such knowledge is linguisticallytransmitted in a set of specialised texts.This study uses some of the possibilities offeredby electronic corpora in conjunction with concordancetools, which allow quantitative analysis.Thanks to this quantitative analysis, followedby a qualitative interpretation of thefindings, we could detect the pragmatic functionthese evidential items have in contextual use,allowing us to see that evidentiality in medicaldiscourse is intended in a slightly different wayfrom general discourse.

This volume delves into Corpus-Assisted Discourse Analysis (CADS), providing a deeper understanding of the social practices that underpin discourse creation and the recurring characteristics of their associated textual elements. Divided into two sections, the volume clarifies CADS methodologies and showcases their applications, shedding light on a broad spectrum of topics such as sentiment analysis, corpus annotation, recurrent constructions at the intersection of lexicon and syntax, as well as strategies shaping the discourse of politics, media and healthcare.

(Critical) Discourse Studies and the (new?) normal
Analysing discourse in times of crisis
Inbunden, Engelska, 2024
909 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
In recent years, norms, normalities, and normativities have been disrupted. Although the idea of "normal" is local and subjective, norms are essential to social and collective behaviours, thus the meanings, ideologies, and relationships of power that structure those behaviours. At the same time, the disruption of norms can create disagreements about what is "normal" and inspire novel ways of being.This volume explores – from various discourse-analytic perspectives – the complex relationships between norms and discourse, and draws attention to the thematically and methodologically pluralistic work in Discourse Studies investigating these relationships across various social domains.
