Embodiment in Language (II)
by Shelley Ching-yu DepnerThis book provides useful strategies for language learning, researching and the understanding of social factors that influence human behavior. It offers an account of how we use human, animal and plant fixed expressions every day and the cultural aspects hidden behind them. These fixed expressions include various linguistic vehicles, such as fruit, jokes and taboos that are related to speakers' use in the real world. The linguistic research in Mandarin Chinese, Hakka, German and English furthers our understanding of the cultural value and model of cognition embedded in life-form embodiment languages.
Embodiment, Relation, Community: A Continental Philosophy of Communication
by Garnet C. ButchartIn this volume, Garnet C. Butchart shows how human communication can be understood as embodied relations and not merely as a mechanical process of transmission. Expanding on contemporary philosophies of speech and language, self and other, and community and immunity, this book challenges many common assumptions, constructs, and problems of communication theory while offering compelling new resources for future study.Human communication has long been characterized as a problem of transmitting information, or the “outward” sharing of “inner thought” through mediated channels of exchange. Butchart questions that model and the various theories to which it gives rise. Drawing from the work of Giorgio Agamben, Roberto Esposito, Jean-Luc Nancy, and Jacques Lacan—thinkers who, along with Martin Heidegger and Michel Foucault, have critiqued the modern notion of a rational subject—Butchart shows that the subject is shaped by language rather than preformed, and that humans embody, and not just use, the signs and contexts of interaction that form what he calls a “communication community.”Accessibly written and engagingly researched, Embodiment, Relation, Community is relevant for researchers and advanced students of communication, cultural studies, translation, and rhetorical studies, especially those who work with a humanistic or interpretive paradigm.

Embodying Language in Action: The Artistry of Process Drama in Second Language Education
by Erika PiazzoliThis book explores embodiment in second language education, sociocultural theory and research. It focuses on process drama, an embodied approach that engages learners’ imagination, body and voice to create a felt-experience of the second language and culture. Divided into three parts, it begins by examining the aesthetic and intercultural dimension of performative language teaching, the elements of drama and knowing-in-action. The central part of the book examines issues related to play, emotions, classroom discourse and assessment when learning a language through process drama, in a sociocultural perspective. The third part is an analysis of the author’s qualitative research, which informs a subtle discussion on reflective practitioner methodology, learner engagement and teacher artistry. Each chapter includes a drama workshop, illustrating in practice what embodying language in action can look like when working with asylum seekers, adult learners with intellectual disabilities, pre-service teachers, international students and children involved in a Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) programme. A unique combination of theory, research and reflective practice, this book provides valuable insights for teacher/artists, teacher educators and researchers in the fields of performative and sociocultural language learning.
Emboscada: La historia oculta de la desaparición de Rodolfo Walsh y el misterio de sus cuentos inéditos
by Facundo PastorFacundo Pastor reconstruye la emboscada que terminó hace 45 años con la desaparición de Rodolfo Walsh, en la que no faltan doble agentes, traiciones y documentos de inteligencia militar, ocultos hasta hoy. Y también desentraña otro misterio: el destino de algunos cuentos del periodista, que aún, y como su cuerpo, siguen sin aparecer. Aquel mediodía del 25 de marzo de 1977, hace 45 años, Rodolfo Walsh llegó puntual a una cita que tenía programada en la esquina de las avenidas San Juan y Entre Ríos, en el centro de la ciudad de Buenos Aires. La reunión había sido confirmada respetando los códigos de seguridad de la clandestinidad: contraseñas secretas y chequeos telefónicos. No sabía que, en verdad, un operativo, que incluía un francotirador, lo estaba esperando para capturarlo. En esta investigación, Facundo Pastor reconstruye, con ritmo de novela policial, cómo se armó la emboscada que terminó con la desaparición de Rodolfo Walsh, en la que no faltan dobles agentes, traiciones y una serie de documentos desclasificados de inteligencia militar que permanecían secretos hasta este libro. Y también intenta desentrañar otro misterio: el destino de los papeles personales y algunos cuentos del periodista que aún hoy, y como su cuerpo siguen sin aparecer.
Emergence and Empire: Innis, Complexity, and the Trajectory of History
by John BonnettHarold Innis was one of the most profound thinkers that Canada ever produced. Such was his influence on the field of communication that Marshall McLuhan once declared his own work was a mere footnote to Innis. But over the past sixty years scholars have had a hard time explaining his brilliance, in large measure because Innis's dense, elliptical writing style has hindered easy explication and interpretation. But behind the dense verbiage lies a profound philosophy of history. In Emergence and Empire, John Bonnett offers a fresh take on Innis's work by demonstrating that his purpose was to understand the impact of self-organizing, emergent change on economies and societies. Innis's interest in emergent change induced him to craft an original and bold philosophy of history informed by concepts as diverse as information, Kantian idealism, and business cycle theory. Bonnett provides a close reading of Innis's oeuvre that connects works of communication and economic history to present a fuller understanding of Innis's influences and influence. Emergence and Empire presents a portrait of an original and prescient thinker who anticipated the importance of developments such as information visualization and whose understanding of change is remarkably similar to that which is promoted by the science of complexity today.
