Language Acts and Worldmaking: How and Why the Languages We Use Shape Our World and Our Lives
byCollectively authored by the Language Acts and Worldmaking team, this defining volume offers reflective narratives on research, theory and practice over the course of the flagship project of the same name, funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council's Open World Research Initiative. It returns to the project's key principles - that our words make worlds and we are agents in worldmaking - analyses the practices and outcomes of collaborative working, and looks to the future by offering concrete ideas for how the work they have done can now continue to do its work in the world.Focusing on the key research strands, this volume looks at the role of the language teacher as a mediator between languages and cultures, worldmaking in modern languages, translation and the imagination, languages and hospitality, digital mediations, and how words change and make worlds. Critically, it analyses the impact on communities of living in multilingual cities, and the ways in which learning a first language, and then a second, and so on, plays a crucial role in our ability to understand our culture in relation to others and to appreciate the ways in which they are intertwined.Specific aims are to: · propose new ways of bridging the gaps between those who teach and research languages and those who learn and use them in everyday contexts from the professional to the personal · put research into the hands of wider audiences · share a philosophy, policy and practice of language teaching and learning which turns research into action · provide the research, experience and data to enable informed debates on current issues and attitudes in language learning, teaching and research · share knowledge across and within all levels and experiences of language learning and teaching · showcase exciting new work that derives from different types of community activity and is of practical relevance to its audiences · disseminate new research in languages that engages with diverse communities of language practitioners.

My Ghost-hunting Wife: Volume 1 (Volume 1 #1)
by 恰如云烟He took her as his wife, but did not allow her to walk with him. "Remember, we are not a real couple!" She remembered, but he crawled up to her every night to make her do her duty as a wife. Was this for the shrimp? I've been waiting for this day for a thousand years. She scoffed. The bull's skin had blown across the sky until a thousand years of reincarnation appeared … She was born with a nether eye, and she was surrounded by ghosts. He said he wasn't afraid, that he was always around her.

My Pen is the Wing of a Bird: New Fiction by Afghan Women
by"Powerful, profound and deeply moving, new fiction by Afghan women writers will expand your mind and elevate your heart" ELIF SHAFAK"Written in simple, direct prose and offers vivid snapshots of a country beset by war and violence . . . It seems more important than ever to read the work of these courageous writers" Financial Times"My pen is the wing of a bird; it will tell you those thoughts we are not allowed to think, those dreams we are not allowed to dream"A woman's fortitude saves her village from disaster. A teenager explores their identity in a moment of quiet. A petition writer reflects on his life as a dog lies nursing her puppies. A tormented girl tries to find love through a horrific act. A headmaster makes his way to work, treading the fine line between life and death."A precious collection of work, the first and maybe the last of its kind. My Pen Is the Wing of a Bird is a huge accomplishment" MONIQUE ROFFEY, author of The Mermaid of Black ConchMy Pen Is the Wing of a Bird is a landmark collection: the first anthology of short fiction by Afghan women. Eighteen writers tell stories that are both unique and universal - stories of family, work, childhood, friendship, war, gender identity and cultural traditions."This book reminds us that everyone has a story. Stories matter; so too the storytellers. Afghan women writers, informed and inspired by their own personal experiences, are best placed to bring us these powerful insights into the lives of Afghans and, most of all, the lives of women. Women's lives, in their own words - they matter." Lyse Doucet in her IntroductionThis collection introduces extraordinary voices from the country's two main linguistic groups (Pashto and Dari) with original, vital and unexpected stories to tell, developed over two years through UNTOLD's Write Afghanistan project. My Pen Is the Wing of a Bird comes at a pivotal moment in Afghanistan's history, when these voices must be heard.With an Introduction by BBC Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet and an Afterword by Lucy HannahABOUT UNTOLD UNTOLD is a writer development programme for marginalised writers in areas of conflict and post-conflict. Afghanistan has millions of Pashto and Dari speakers with little or no local support for creative writing, literary translation, or literary editing. Support for writers has been hampered by cultural norms, free expression issues, chronic instability, and internal displacement. UNTOLD has been working one-to-one with women on their short stories, with English-speaking literary editors and translators working with the writers to realise the potential of their stories for publication both locally and globally in translation.

by अमरकांतअमरकांत की कहानियों में मध्यवर्ग, विशेषकर निम्न-मध्यवर्ग के जीवनानुभवों और जिजीविषाओं का बेहद प्रभावशाली और अन्तरंग चित्रण मिलता है ! अक्सर सपाट-से नजर आनेवाले कथ्यों में भी वे अपने जिवंत मानवीय संस्पर्श के कारण अनोखी आभा पैदा कर देते हैं ! सहज-सरल रूपबंधवाली ये कहानियां जिंदगी की जटिलताओं को जिस तरह समेटे रहती हैं, कभी-कभी उससे चकित रह जाना पड़ता है ! लेकिन यह अमरकांत की ख़ास शैली है ! अमरकांत के व्यक्तित्व की तरह उनकी भाषा में भी एक ख़ास किस्म की फक्कड़ता है ! लोक-जीवन के मुहावरों और देशज शब्दों के प्रयोग से उनकी भाषा में माटी का सहज स्पर्श तथा ऐसी सोंधी गंध रच-बस जाती है जो पाठकों को किसी छदम उदात्तता से परे, बहुत ही निजी लोक में, ले जाती है ! उनमे छिपे हुए व्यंग्य से सामान्य स्थितियाँ भी बेहद अर्थव्यंजक हो उठती हैं ! अमरकांत के विभिन्न कहानी-संग्रहों में चरित्रों का विशाल फलक ‘जिन्दगी और जोंक’से लेकर ‘मित्र मिलन’ तक फैला हुआ है ! उन्ही संग्रहों की लगभग सब चर्चित कहानियां एक जगह एकत्र होने के कारण इस संकलन की उपादेयता निश्चित रूप से काफी बढ़ गई है !

Sexuality and Subordination: Interdisciplinary Studies of Gender in the Nineteenth Century
bySexuality and Subordination uses the insights of a range of disciplines to examine the construction of gender in nineteenth-century Britain and France. With contributions from history, literature, sociology and philosophy, its interdisciplinary approach demonstrates the extent to which a common focus can illuminate problems inaccessible to any single discipline. 'Victorianism' is generally understood to mean sexual double standards, hypocrisy and prudery among the middle classes. But, as this collection shows, the representation of sexuality in the nineteenth century was more diverse and complex than is sometimes realized. Both art and literature point to the deployment of sexual metaphors and imagery, and the language of educated public opinion was shaped by the dichotomy between mind and matter, between rationality and sexuality. The contributors to this volume explore how women, in questioning their subordination, had to challenge a construction of femininity which imposed sexual ignorance.

Taken in Hand
byIf there’s one thing that unites kinky sex, it’s spanking. Go to any fetish club, any naughty party, and there’s sure to be bottoms getting smacked. That’s no great surprise, because – as every spanker and every spankee knows – that’s what bottoms are for, and if it’s popular with players, it’s just as popular with writers. To make up this collection of eight stories we’ve chosen contributions from authors who are also genuine enthusiasts for their subject, so we’re pleased to present a positive feast of raised skirts, lowered panties, beautifully rounded cheeks and lots and lots of spanking.
World Trade Organization
byDiploma Thesis from the year 2006 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, grade: 1,00, University of Salzburg (Volkerrecht), 97 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Die vorliegende Diplomarbeit behandelt das Problem der Regelung von Wettbewerbsfragen im Volkerrecht im allgemeinen und in der WTO im besonderen. In Kapitel 1 werden die wirtschaftlichen Hintergrunde und unterschiedlichen Motive fur staatliche wettbewerbsrechtliche Regelungen dargestellt. Kapitel 2 stellt verschiedene Tatbestande, die im Wettbewerbsrecht als regelungsbedurftig angesehen werden, vor (z. B. Kartelle, Missbrauch der marktbeherrschenden Stellung, etc. ). Kapitel 3 beschreibt nationale Regelungsansatze des Wettbewerbsrechtes einschlielich bilateraler Kooperationsabkommen, die zur Durchsetzung nationaler Regelungen erforderlich sind. Besonderes Augenmerk wird auch auf die unterschiedlichen Rechtskulturen gelegt, die die nationalen Regelungen beeinflussen. Kapitel 4 stellt die bisherigen Regelungsansatze auf internationaler Ebene dar, wobei die auf regionaler Ebene verbindliches Recht darstellen, die auf universeller Ebene allerdings im Bereich des soft laws bleiben. Kapitel 5 und 6 stellen die Kernkapitel der Arbeit dar und befassen sich mit Wettbewerbsrecht im Rahmen der WTO. In Kapitel 5 werden bestehende wettbewernsrelevante Regelungen in der WTO dargestellt. Zunachst wird beschrieben, welche staatlichen Manahmen, die von der WTO Rechtsordnung erfasst sind, den Wettbewerb beeinflussen. In einem weiteren Schritt wird analysiert, welche WTO Regelungen Staaten verpflichten konnten, privates wettbewerbswidriges Handeln zu regulieren. Da die Regelungen der WTO grundsatzlich Verpflichtungen fur Staaten enthalten, wettbewerbsrelevantes Verhalten aber von Unternehmen gesetzt werden, ist es notwendig, einen Zusammenhang zwischen dem Verhalten von Privaten und den staatlichen Verpflichtungen aus dem WTO Recht darzustellen. In Kapitel 6 wird
