Contact seller5-star sellerWraps. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Offered is an essay entitled "The Real Racism" (Libertarian Alliance Political Notes No. 46 ) written by Dennis O'Keeffe and published in 1990 by the Libertarian Alliance out of London, England. A single sheet measuring 8-1/4" by 11-11/16" printed on both sides. Mr. O'Keeffe begins his articl…e by writing, "We have heard much talk in recent years in this country of 'racism.' Most of such talk has been vacuous or pernicious or both. The white British have been accused first of all of overt prejudice, a proposition rather at odds with the astonishing ease with which more than three million non-whites have been absorbed by the British nation, mostly in England, in the last three decades. The other attack accuses the British of a parallel malady known as 'institutionalized' racism. In order to make this different from the other kind, its detectors and critics have to argue what amounts, really, to the view that it is accidental, that white teachers 'inadvertently' cause black children to get bad examination results. We end up here with the nonsense of applying a morally pejorative term (racism) to alleged accidents.".

Mr. O'Keeffe begins, "It seems difficult to deny that in the last decade there has been a profound transformation in the British economy. It is true that the transitional costs have at times been very hig…h, though an enormous shadow economy makes a precise specification of the hardship caused, for example, by unemployment, impossible. There is no doubt, however, that net unemployment has soared; and it remains high now: too high for any humane society.".

Paperback. Condition: New. Introducing Pragmatics in Use is a lively and accessible introduction to pragmatics which both covers theory and applies it to real spoken and written data. This textbook systematically draws on a number of different language corpora and the corresponding software applications. Its primary focus is the… application of a corpus methodology in order to examine core component areas such as deixis, politeness, speech acts, language variation and register. The main goal of the book is to contextualise pragmatics in the study of language through the analysis of different language contexts provided by spoken and written corpora.Substantially revised and updated, this second edition covers a wider range of topics, corpora and software packages. It consistently demonstrates the benefits of innovative analytical synergies and extends this to how corpus pragmatics can be further blended with, for example, conversation analysis or variational pragmatics. The second edition also offers a new chapter specifically dedicated to corpus pragmatics which proposes a framework for both form-to-function and function-to-form approaches. The book also addresses the - sometimes thorny - area of the integration of the teaching of pragmatics into the language classroom. All chapters in the second edition include a number of cohesive, step-by-step tasks that can be done in small groups in class or can be used as self-study resources. A wide range of illustrative language samples drawn from a number of English language corpora, coupled with instructive tasks and annotated further reading sections, make this an ideal textbook for advanced undergraduate or postgraduate students of pragmatics, discourse analysis and corpus linguistics within applied languages / linguistics or TESOL programmes.
