Teoría de la educación : educación y cultura en la sociedad de la información
2015
Se presenta en este texto un problema específico dentro de una investigación más amplia sobre la pedagogía líquida considerada como un elemento característico de la postmodernidad. Se expone el significado de la metáfora líquida aplicada a la pedagogía y se discuten dos posibilidades de uso del significante «pedagogía líquida»: a) como imaginario pedagógico y b) como teoría de la educación. Se discute entender la pedagogía líquida como una teoría que nos sirva para articular una cierta idea de qué es y qué debe ser la educación. Se describen dos variantes posibles de la pedagogía líquida: a) con métodos sólidos para transmitir la tradición b) con métodos líquidos para dar lugar a posibilida…
"Ludzka krotochwila" na scenie teatru świata w twórczości Mikołaja Reja i Marcina Bielskiego
2019
Artykuł jest próbą interpretacji dzieł Mikołaja Reja i Marcina Bielskiego w kategoriach encyklopedycznego teatru. Taka konstrukcja stanowi odwzorowanie obrazu ówczesnego świata. Można mówić o zgodności między uczonymi treściami a wielką machiną theatrum mundi, którego struktury, relacje i zakres sprawnie funkcjonują w zamkniętym dyskursie literackich utworów. „Krotochwila ludzka” staje się więc miejscem zmagań człowieka z własnymi słabościami i losem. Staropolscy pisarze, aby zilustrować tę walkę, posłużyli się popularnym w renesansie mitem o bogini Kirke i jej ofiarach zamienionych w zwierzęta. Maski faunistyczne stanowiły znakomite alegorie występków ludzkich, chociaż mogły również przeds…
Histoire cachée du structuralisme : entre la métaphore organique et le point de vue
2019
The invisible history of structuralism: between “organic metaphor” and a “point of view”Abstract: Patrick Sériot’s reconstruction of an “invisible” and “unfamiliar” history of struc-turalism leads to conclusions about the importance of a comparative analysis of the historical-epistemological contexts of Russian and German-speaking research, as well as about the decisive role of the episteme of the 19th century in later linguistic theoretical constructions. This implies the idea of two structuralisms, two models of formal or structural orientation. The object of the first is a form or a structure as a logical organization and an expression of a certain “point of view”; the object of the seco…

'Rocking the boat' and 'putting spanners in the works': On different metaphorical conceptualizations of the European Union
2021
The article aims to analyze different metaphorical conceptualizations of the European Union in The Guardian discourse. The corpus of news texts subject to analysis comes from a manually compiled 930,000-word corpus of news articles, retrieved from The Guardian from May 2004 through December 2009. The analysis focuses on four most frequent metaphors identified in the corpus, namely, THE EU IS A HOUSE and THE EU IS AN ELITE CLUB, which are used in the context of the accession of new countries to the EU and the related problem of immigration, as well as THE EU IS A BOAT and THE EU IS A MACHINE, which are embedded in the context of internal EU tensions concerning home affairs. The analysis and …
Environment in Megacities: Tehran Waterscapes
2021
Defining contemporary urban paradigms is the challenge of this time, especially when the urban dynamics are so fluid they spread uncontrollably in overextended and overpopulated territories. This is the case for megacities, metropolitan areas with more than 10 million inhabitants, which place the emphasis on how to manage energy consumption in such filled places. In this frame, the city of Tehran, the capital of the Islamic Republic of Iran, scene of political and cultural disputes, administrative and economic headquarter of the country, with its nearly 15 million residents and a daily traffic of more than 20 million people, is currently one of the most populous cities in the world and repr…
Metafore animali, suoni onomatopeici e proverbi in alcune orazioni kata archonton di Libanio
2011
The work is presented as a reading tool aimed at analysing the relationship between signifier and signified in the animal metaphors in the orations of Libanius of Antioch. Greek man in animals isolated psychological manifestations in which he recognised his own. A prominent place was occupied by animals 'symbolic' of positive or negative qualities. Several such symbolic figures appear in Libanius' writing: the wolf is an animal-symbol, which emerges above all other animal metaphors due to the variability of its referents (from the governor to members of the claque) .
Czytanie Süskinda
2016
Plots created by Patrick Süskind are transparent and uncomplicated; they follow a conventional path, seemingly aloof from formal modernist experiments, and close with distinctive endings; in popular reception, they give a sense of confidence that even the most fantastic worlds, derived from the corners of imagination, may be set into a familiar and closed whole. Perhaps this simplicity makes it easy to be satisfied by their seductive plot and steer clear off tracks leading to the content encrypted within the deep structure. The author of the present paper attempts to interpret the short stories: {Maître Mussard's Bequest} and {The Story of Mr Sommer} as a metaphorical and grotesque vision o…
Metaphors and metonymies understanding in sign systems
2013
The aim of this paper is to integrate the cognitive linguistic theory and the relevance theory to provide a comprehensive explanation of what metaphors and metonymies are and to explore their interaction. We approach this question through the analysis of metaphors and metonymies in homesign systems developed by deaf individuals who have no contact with the Deaf Community. We conclude that there is a complex interplay between metonymies and metaphors as a result of a process of representing the human experience by exploiting iconicity and contiguity relations between sign and referent. Speaking metaphorically and use metonymies is a complex ability that arises in two different steps. In our …
