HUMOUR IN THE CLASSROOM

Author(s): Gabriela Tutunea / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

This study attempts to explore the ways in which humour is used in the classroom. The underlying assumption is that humour relies on ambiguity, representing an intermediate space between different meanings. The paper starts with a theoretical presentation of several theories of humour, such as the incongruity theory, the hostility theory, and the release theory, and includes a review of different types of humour – irony, satire, or sarcasm. The practical part consists of data recorded in the classroom, which are identified as humorous. This part aims to classify the humorous instances. The conclusions are that humour occurring in the classroom is mostly innocent and inclusive; however, teachers may use humour in order to indirectly criticize students, and students may resort to humour as an attempt to challenge teachers’ authority.

La remise en question ironique dans la vision de Jankélévitch

Author(s): Emilia Dolcu / Language(s): French Publication Year: 0

Many literary critics, philosophers and linguists have studied the concept of irony, but Jankélévitch not only devoted a specific book to it, he also placed the concept in a broader perspective which is at the same time philosophical, historical and literary. Even more, one of his major book, ‘The I Don’t Know What and AlmostNothing’, is the expression of an ironic relationship to the world. My aim is to make visible with Jankélévitch the internal structure of irony and the relation to reality that it establishes. I also intend to bring to light the functions that this figure of speech and thought fulfils. Through a thematic analysis of the work, ‘The I Don’t Know What and Almost Nothing’, I will seek to determine an ironic relationship to the world to see then by what phenomena and linguistic signals it is translated.

Uloga i značenje epiteta u Huminoj poeziji

Author(s): Ivana Tomić / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

Depending on the poetic description of poetry, the particulars it refers to, or in what way we as a reader experience an imaginary, potential element of this image, they can be: visual, acoustic, tactile, tasteful and olfactive images . Successful poetic images are generated by a description that is realized by a special selection of “decorative adjectives” or epithets. Expressionistic sounds, colors and images are present in this poetry. Most often these are descriptions of Herzegovinian landscapes pervaded by the poet’s inner experience or the most personal intimate feelings, etc. The aim of the paper is to explain the linguistic role of “decorative adjectives”, that is, epithets on the basis of which the poet builds poetic images, as well as their expressive but impressive meaning poetry. This paper will give general information on Expressionism and Hamzi Humi as one of the most significant representatives of expressionist lyrical literature in BH literature. After the basic information about the author and the literary line, theoretical definitions of the epithets will be discussed with regard to the subject analysis. The corpus on which the analysis was made relates to a large number of selected Huma songs from different cycles – Old Motives, Herzegovina Landscapes, City of rhyme and rhythms, Sounds in the heart, Inner life.

NOMEN EST OMEN: FUNKCIJE VLASTITIH IMENA I TOPONIMA U SARAJLIĆEVOJ POEZIJI

Author(s): Marina Katnić-Bakaršić / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

Iako se može reći da nema sustavnog istraživanja Sarajlićevog stila, književni kritičari uočili su karakteristične stilske postupke u poeziji ovoga pjesnika (npr. Martinović 1984/85, Vučković 1998). U opće stilske odrednice tako spadaju specifična ritmičnost i melodičnost stiha, uvjetovana različitim postupcima poetske sintakse, zatim elegičnost, sentimentalnost, odnosno pojačana emotivnost; ovome se može dodati i svojevrsna retoričnost, te narativnost koja, paradoksalno, ne dokida liričnost stihova. Svakako ne treba zaboraviti ni duhovitost, ponekad i aforističnost, te sklonost ka završetku pjesme u nagloj i snažnoj poanti. Na planu stilskih figura frekventne su figure ponavljanja – anafora, anadiploza, te općenito paralelizmi, što sve dolazi u funkciji stvaranja prepoznatljive ritmičke strukture, ali ima i mnemoničku funkciju, jer je poznato Sarajlićevo uvjerenje kako poezija treba biti zapamtljiva.

LJUBAV OSJENČENA RATOM

Author(s): Enver Kazaz / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

U Sarajlićevoj poeziji nisam do sada pronalazio izazove interpretativnoj imaginaciji i on je u mome čitalačkom doživljaju dugo bio pjesnik odveć ličan, ritmički glatko baladičan i elegičan, s jezikom koji ne nudi zakučaste igre i zavodljiva prenošenja do krajnjih rubova asocijativnih mogućnosti riječi. Takav doživljaj ove poezije ponio sam još iz srednjoškolskih i fakultetskih dana i njega je bezmalo uobličila kritika koja ju je označavala intimističkom, naglašavajući da je ona imala značajnu ulogu u poetičkim preobražajima književnosti na južnoslavenskom prostoru odmah iz Drugog svjetskog rata. Tako ga književnopovijesno situiravši, ta kritika kao da je obavila interpretativni posao za čitave generacije čitalaca, a Sarajlić je kasnije smještan i u estradne pjesnike koji su lomili poetski hermetizam neonadrelizma i neosimbolizma. I sam je pjesnik doprinosio takvome čitalačkom doživljaju, tim prije što je kasni Sarajlić postao kanonski pjesnik, veoma omiljen u široj čitalačkoj publici, pjesnik povišenog emocionalnog tonaliteta, estradne poetske geste, lirik koji plijeni, a svojom poezijom kao da uobličava ukus doba koje je došlo iza njega i koje je u težnji za postmodernom jednostavnošću znalo prezreti hermetičnu poeziju jezičkih igara.

NAD BEGIĆEVIM ESEJIMA: PRILOG INTERPRETACIJI STILA

Author(s): Marina Katnić-Bakaršić / Language(s): Bosnian Publication Year: 0

Ako bi trebalo odrediti ključno obilježje Begićevog djela, njegovu stilsku dominantu, onda je to svakako esejističnost kao onaj princip iz koga polaze i u koji se smještaju sva ostala stilska obilježja. Teško je stoga i zamisliti govor o Midhatu Begiću bez naglašavanja njegove ključne uloge kao kanonskog esejiste u bošnjačkoj i bosanskohercegovačkoj kulturi, u kojoj je esej i inače dugo bio, a možda je i danas, dominantna forma književne i umjetničke kritike, pa i književne historije. Ova sklonost esejističkom pristupu književnom tekstu i njegova dominacija nad akademskim diskursom znanosti o književnosti u Bosni i Hercegovini zahtijeva posebnu analizu, ali za samog Begića sklonost eseju bila je potpuno prirodna i u skladu sa njegovim stvaralačkim bićem. Zapravo, ako se prisjetimo njegove misli prema kojoj “kritičar mora da nastavi djelo u istom stilu ili da odloži pero pred apsolutnim tvorevinama mašte i poezije” (“Oko Borgesova Alefa”), onda je jasno da je jedino esej stilski mogao odgovarati programski postavljenom cilju - potrebi homologne veze između književnog djela i kritike toga djela. O tome koliko je danas takav pristup prihvatljiv, odnosno aktuelan u savremenoj književnosti, može se diskutirati, ali neupitna je činjenica d aje on utjecao na dominaciju esejističkog stilskog prosedea u cjelokupnom opusu Midhata Begića.

CONTRASTIVE AND RESULTIVE CONJUNCTS IN ENGLISH ACADEMIC PROSE

Author(s): Vladimíra Ježdíková / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The contribution examines the role of certain cohesive devices, namely conjuncts, in academic discourse, comparing their distribution in three text types which are represented by a textbook aimed at university students, research articles from a recognized scientific journal and conference papers. The material under investigation is taken from authentic scientific texts on computer science, all of which are intended for the technically educated reading scientific public, yet are all different in the purpose for which they were written, the presupposed type of readers and the situational framework in which they are presumed to be read. Focusing mainly on the most distinctive semantic categories of resultive and contrastive conjuncts, the paper analyses the frequency and variety of both semantic categories of conjuncts and individual tokens. The paper tests the hypothesis that different academic settings for which scientific texts are designed influence the type of cohesive means used.

MODALITY IN ACADEMIC DISCOURSE: MEANING AND USE OF EPISTEMIC VERBS IN RESEARCH ARTICLES

Author(s): Melanie Marcinkowski / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

This contribution reports on a study of epistemic verbs in a corpus of scientific research articles from two subdisciplines of the natural sciences (Biosciences and Physics) and their popular adaptations in New Scientist. Epistemic devices express the writer’s commitment to the truth value of a state of affairs. Epistemic verbs can be divided into downtoners, i.e. verbs that indicate writers’ lack of confidence (e.g. indicate, assume) and indicators of certainty that express writers’ conviction of the state of affairs described in the proposition (e.g. show, conclude). Epistemic verbs are thus an important means of communicating knowledge and presenting findings in scientific research articles and their popular versions. This study explores the meaning and use of frequent epistemic verbs in their personal and impersonal uses and aims at contributing to the research on stylistic conventions in scientific and popular academic writing. The analysis shows that there are quantitative as well as qualitative differences in the use of epistemic verbs between the two subdisciplines and their popular versions.

CONCESSIVE SCHEMATA IN JUDICIAL ARGUMENTATION: A DIALOGUE IN A MONOLOGUE?

Author(s): Magdalena Szczyrbak / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

While concessivity has been approached from various perspectives, the semantic-syntactic model being the most frequent one, the situational context of this linguistic phenomenon seems to have received little attention. Drawing on the interactional tripartite concept of Concession, the author contributes a genre-based analysis of this discourse-pragmatic relation in the context of dialogicality of legal decision-making. The study focuses on monologic Concessive schemata found in judicial argumentation as well as the interactional functions of two Concessive moves: acknowledgments and counterclaims. As expected, the findings suggest that judges, like speakers, are aware of and follow the dialogic pattern of Concession found in spoken language.

A GRAFIKAI REPREZENTÁCIÓ EGYIK SAJÁTOS MEGVALÓSULÁSI FORMÁJA, A RÖVID SZÖVEGES ÜZENETEK VIRTUÁLIS NYELVE – A FORDÍTÁS ÉS FORDÍTHATÓSÁG SZEMSZÖGÉBŐL

Author(s): Réka Suba / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

The language of short text messages (omission of sonants, unique contractions, phonetic script, uppercase or lowercase styles of writing, shortened versions of English words, etc.), with its idiosyncratic norms and rules of use, makes up a part of everyday reality for the younger generation and is engendered by the need for transmitting as much information as possible within the framework of mobile technology. However, in recent times, it presents itself not only in the peculiarities of everyday speech acts, but also in advertisement campaigns launched by multinational companies. If this is the case, these advertisements, brochures, and invitations need to be translated into the language of other ethnic groups, which often requires unique adaptations in the case of these texts. Considering that specific features of expression sometimes differ form one language to the next, this task is no small challenge to translators.

FENOMENE LEGATE DE ACUSTICA TEXTELOR ÎN AUDIOVIZUALUL DE LIMBĂ MAGHIARĂ DIN ROMÂNIA

Author(s): Réka Suba / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

The informative programmes of radio and television stations mainly work with texts that are usually written down and then read out, and this phenomenon can affect and subvert the acoustic features of these texts, i.e. the tone and voice of their presentation. Professional speakers have given place to professional readers. Nevertheless, reading encompasses two interrelated yet strongly individualized factors: the text and the sound of voice, which may entail two additional issues: the modality and manner of reading and the reader’s suitability to accomplish this kind of task. Our culture, more and more focused on reading out, raises an essential question: that of taking into consideration the potentials and circumstances of transmitting oral messages in the media, as bad pronunciation, poor intonation or redundant breaks can alter the natural flow of oral discourses in such a way that receivers fail to decode the message properly. The data of this research were collected during the monitoring process of the Hungarian audio-visual media, which was carried out in Romania in November and December 2010 and 2011.

ЭВОЛЮЦИЯ СЛОВООБРАЗОВАТЕЛЬНОГО ПОЛЯ КОНЦЕПТА «ГНЕВ» В РУССКОМ ЛИТЕРАТУРНОМ ЯЗЫКЕ

Author(s): Irina V. VOTYAKOVA / Language(s): Russian Publication Year: 0

The word-formation field is a structured system of the categorical derivational values that reflect cognitive characteristics of the concept. Two microfields are distinguished in the structure of the wordformation field of the emotional concept ‘anger’ [gnev]. They are an ‘Action’ microfield and an ‘Attribute’ one. This is due to the significance of its cognitive characteristics associated with expression of its movement as well as its nature. Other microfields, which are typical for the structure of the word-formative field of this emotional concept, have not received proper derivational development. In general, we can observe a significant reduction in its derivatives. In our opinion, this is due, on the one hand, to the universalization tendency and to some simplification in perception of the emotional state which comes down to a semantic triad: ‘to experience an emotion or a state’ – ‘to bring someone to the given emotion or state’- ‘to get oneself into the given emotion or state’. In modern Russian the most common derivatives have a more generalized meaning by co-opting the semantics of the obsolete derivatives. On the other hand, the decrease in the number of the words used in speech can be ascribed to the development of a complex interaction with synonyms that are members of other families of words.
