The Language and Stereotype of Italians in Irish Culture
2009
This book examines the language of stereotyping produced by Irish journalists of The Irish Times and by Irish writers in their description, creation and interpretation of Italians living in Ireland and in Italy. The so-called Celtic Tiger phenomenon of economic boom has modified the images of Italians in Ireland, contributing to a shift from stereotypes to the so-called imagotypes. While in Ireland Italians have recently been “replaced” by such ethnic identities like Poles and Nigerians, and have consequently become more silent, in their home country they still retain those traits which can be defined truly stereotypical and which are especially perpetuated by the press. Detecting the prese…
Identity processing style and cognitive attributional strategies: similarities and difference across different contexts
1999
Identity processing style refers to the manner in which individuals approach or manage to avoid identity relevant problems and decisions. Two studies were designed to investigate the relationship between identity style and the specific cognitive and attributional strategies youth deploy in achievement and affiliative contexts. In Study 1, 198 American late adolescents filled in the revised Identity Style Inventory and a Strategy and Attribution Questionnaire. In Study 2, 109 Finnish late adolescents filled in the same measures. Study 1 revealed that diffuse/avoidant-oriented American youth relied on maladaptive strategies in both contexts. Information-oriented youth engaged in more strategi…
From the Car Style Pregnancy towards the Brand Country Origin Recognition
2019
AbstractIn the modern automotive industry, a car's style clearly defines its brand. In the context of globalization, a question has recently emerged concerning the relationship between a country's culture and the car style of a particular brand. The style is one way to place car morphologies into a meaningful structure, called the “telling structure.” This research hypothesizes that a stylist tries to compress a car's form and make it a refined unicum that is streamlined with some inherent features, which express a brand's cultural aesthetics. Using the cognitive paradigm that an end user transforms explicit references into implic-it references and that the telling structure of a car's desi…
Voice and authorial body in Juana Manso
2021
El estilo de Juana Manso fue calificado por Sarmiento como «escandaloso». Esa manera inequívoca de presentarse públicamente delimitó desde entonces un modo de existencia, de circulación y de funcionamiento de su figura autorial en el campo cultural argentino de mediados de siglo XIX. Este artículo se propone rastrear esta singular «puesta en escena» de la escritora como un dispositivo de enunciación que no se limita a sus textos, en la doble dimensión que ocupa, como autora y como actora de ese campo. ¿Cómo se construye, en esta puesta escena, su voz y su imagen?, ¿Cómo se difunde ese cuerpo de autora? En la conjunción de género y profesión, la función-Manso se concreta en un tono de escrit…
El componente pragmático en los diccionarios: Implicaciones para la Lexicografía
2015
Dictionaries are a list of words, simple or complex, that are treated as entries (lexical items). It is usual to assert several components: the lemma or headword, named after its most neutral form, followed by an indication of the main inflections of its category: genre and number if they are names, syntactic class if they are verbs. Sometimes, indications of it are made in other aspects: etymology, pronunciation, marks of placement, area of use, register, frequency of use, etc.Among all the group, it is pointed out an area that grows daily, painstakingly, in lexicographic works: the pragmatic component. Most of the words are referential (names, verbs, adverbs), but others correspond to lan…
Apéndices interrogativos: el caso de ‘¿no ve?’ en el español de los bilingües aymara-español
2022
This paper offers an insight to the description of the tag question ¿no ve? in the variety of Spanish spoken by bilinguals of Aymara-Spanish. The analysis identifies the relation between the position of ¿no ve? and its pragmatic functions. Furthermore, it displays the multidimensionality of this tag question that may operate on different conversational layers at the same time. The study also describes the impact of social factors (sex, age and education) on the use of ¿no ve?. The original data used for the present analysis comes from the Corpus oral del español hablado por bilingües de aymara-español (Quartararo 2021).
Sobre el «marc de condicions sociolingüístiques favorables» per a la implantació de la normativa lingüística
2016
Resum: Aquest treball pretén desplegar conceptualment la unitat lèxica marc de condicions sociolingüístiques favorables proposada per F. X. Vila, M. Nogué i I. Vila a fi que sigui acadèmicament operativa per analitzar quins són els factors que afavoririen la implantació de la normativa. Per fer-ho partirem, entre altres, d’una concepció àmplia de la «sociolingüística catalana» i de treballs nostres. A partir d’aquesta concepció, analitzarem quins factors podrien afavorir la implantació de la normativa. I ho farem seguint les fases que normalment segueix la implantació de les normes: codificació (incloent-hi la selecció), difusió, i implantació o no implantació. Dins de cada una de les fases…
Psychische Struktur, intrapsychische Konflikte und Abwehrstile in der Adoleszenz
2020
Associations Between Personality Structure, Unconscious Conflicts, and Defense Styles in Adolescence According to the Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnosis in Childhood and Adolescence, associations between personality structure, unconscious conflicts, and defense styles are postulated. So far, an empirical investigation of these associations in mentally healthy adolescents is missing. The present study aims to contribute to the understanding of unconscious conflicts as well as the unconscious defense of conflicts by elucidating intrapersonal factors within a normative sample. Furthermore, the aim of this study is to analyse the extent to which sex, age, and socioeconomic status are relat…
The use of positively valued adjectives and adverbs in Polish and Estonian casual conversations
2019
Abstract In this paper cultural differences between Polish and Estonian conversational strategies are analysed in respect of how the evaluative words are used and what their degree of deliberateness is. The study compares the usage of adjectives and adverbs with positive value in the excerpts from Polish and Estonian corpora of casual conversation. The quantitative and qualitative comparison demonstrates that their overall frequency and the pragmatic functions are very similar. The differences of the conversational styles lay in greater accumulation and intensification of the evaluatives in the Polish conversations and in the tendency to externalize the positive affect in the Estonian ones.…
