Mitscherling Jeff
The Image of a Second Sun: Plato on Poetry Rhetoric and the Techne of Mimesis
Amherst New York U.S.A.: Humanity Books 2009. Book. New. Cloth/Laminated Boards. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. This absorbing study of Plato's criticism of poetry offers a new interpretation based upon central features of both the pre-Platonic conception of poetry and previously neglected features of Plato's various discussions of poetry and the poets. Professor Mitscherling's analysis is unique in that he concentrates on the philosophical significance of Plato's distinction between dramatic and non-dramatic sorts of poetry. Mitscherling shows that this distinction proves in fact to be central to the conception of poetry that Plato consistently elaborates throughout his dialogues. Mitscherling also makes a unique contribution by outlining a possible Platonic aesthetics which draws on current work in phenomenology and hermeneutics in such a way as to promise an entirely new direction for current work in continental aesthetics. The author employs Gadamer's analyses of the ontology of the work of art in conjunction with a phenomenological analysis of the aesthetic experience in the construction of a foundation for aesthetics that is consistently Platonic. Mitscherling concludes with the hypothesis that Plato's criticism of poetry did not apply to poetry itself nor was it directed to art in general or the educational system or the Sophists. Rather Plato was specifically against the technic of mimesis that is the technique of persuading by appearing to be what one is not or by merely appearing to speak the truth.479pp. Humanity Books Hardcover

Hansen Erik W.
The Synchronic Fallacy: Historic Investigations With a Theory of History
Denmark: Odense University Press 2001. Book. New. Paperback. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. The Synchronic Fallacy introduces a postmodern attitude into the science of language. In accordance with its own Critico-Philological Method the essay is a constructive critique of the transcendent foundationalism of modern synchronic linguistics. Without falling into nihilistic pitfalls of the postmodern mind's antifoundationalism the author demonstrates both how the static essentialism of modern linguistics turns out to be a transcendent metaphysical statement of only a section of the everyday language and how the synchronicity of modern linguistics cannot deliver on its promises to produce empirically relevant and non-shortening descriptions of the dynamic existence of the everyday language. Rehabilitating the Erkenntnisswert of the non-transcendent use of the everyday language - a project with Glossematic 'Hermeneutical' and 'Deconstructivist' overtones - the Synchronic Fallacy presents an argument against the modern synchronization of historical linguistics and demonstrates the possibility of constructing a historical theory through the introduction of the Existential Function of the everyday language as an implementation of man's temporally structured mind our historical sense. The essay's critical analyses of the four conceptual pillars of modern static linguistics -system structure state synchrony - evolve a determination of the temporal-dynamic nature of structure/Structuralism so that the essay's view of our tradition's purported antinomy: 'structure and history' dovetails with the advanced view of language: language change is not to be seen or observed but comprehended.

Yearbook of Morphology 2002
London: Kluwer Academic Publishers 2003. Book. Very Good. Cloth/Laminated Boards. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. A revival of interest in morphology has occurred during recent years. "The Yearbook of Morphology" series published since 1988 has proven to be an eminent support for this upswing of morphological research since it contains articles on topics which are central in the current theoretical debates which are frequently referred to. In the "Yearbook of Morphology 2002" a number of articles is devoted to the morphology of a variety of pidgin and creole languages which appear to have much more morphology than traditionally assumed. A second topic of this volume is the morphological use of truncation for the coinage of proper names in Germanic and Romance languages in particular endearment forms with highly interesting consequences for the theory of phonology-morphology interaction. Thirdly this volume contains articles on how affixes are combined and ordered in complex words and the complex linguistic principles behind these orderings. 324pp.N.B.Base of spine slightly marked.

The Yearbook of Morphology series published since 1988 has proven to be an eminent support for an upswing of morphological research since it contains articles on topics which are central in the theoretical debates which are frequently referred to. "The Yearbook of Morphology 1999" focuses on diachronic morphology and shows in a number of articles by specialists how complicated morphological systems develop in the course of time. In addition this volume deals with a number of hotly debated issues in theoretical morphology: its interaction with phonology including Optimality Theory the relation between inflection and word formation and the formal modelling of inflectional systems. A feature of this volume is an article on morphology in sign language a new area of research in linguistics. The relevant evidence comes from a wide variety of languages amongst which Germanic Romance and Slavic languages are prominent. 319pp. Kluwer Academic Publishers Hardcover

Helsinki: Finnish Literature Society 2003. Book. New. Paperback. First Edition. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. What are the most popular names of the Ambo people in Namibia Why do so many Ambos have Finnish first names What do the African names of these people mean Why is the namesake so important in Ambo culture How did the long independence struggle affect personal naming and what are the latest name-giving trends in Namibia This study analyses the changes in the personal naming system of the Ambo people in Namibia over the last 120 years starting from the year 1883 when the first Ambos received biblical and European names at baptism. The central factors in this process were the German and South African colonisation and European missionary work on the one hand and the rise of African nationalism on the other hand. Eventually this clash between African and European naming practices led to a new and dynamic naming system which includes elements of both African and European origin. 373pp. Finnish Literature Society Paperback
