University of Regina Press Isúh ÁníiAs Grandmother Said
Book SynopsisThe first book published in Tsuut?ina?a critically endangered language?in over a centuryWith fewer than 150 speakers, Tsuut?ina is a critically endangered language. Isúh Áníi / As Grandmother Said brings together nine traditional narratives and historical accounts in the Tsuut?ina language, originally narrated by Elders Dátl?ìshí Ts?ìká Bessie Meguinis (1883?1987) and Ninàghá Tsìtl?á Willie Little Bear (1912?1989). At once an act of language preservation and a learning resource, each story is retold in Tsuut?ina by Dit?óní Didlíshí Dr. Bruce Starlight and is presented with English translations and a Tsuut?ina-to-English glossary.The narratives included in this collection cover considerable ground, ranging from the creation of the world in the caring hands of Xàlítsa-tsii and his animal helpers, to accounts of separation, migration, and cross-cultural contact that mark major turning points in Tsuut?ina history, and to important cultural and ceremonial items and practices that the Tsuut?ina Nation maintains to this day.These stories will be of lasting value to Tsuut?ina language learners and teachers, and will share the legacy of Elders Bessie Meguinis and Willie Little Bear with generations of Tsuut?ina to come.

JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck) Pietismus Handbuch
Book SynopsisDas Pietismus Handbuch bietet in einem Band einen umfassenden Überblick über die den nachreformatorischen Protestantismus in den westlichen Gesellschaften bis in die Gegenwart prägende Reformbewegung des späten 17. und des 18. Jahrhunderts. Der Diversifizierung und Internationalisierung der Pietismusforschung in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten entsprechend haben sich 59 internationale Autorinnen und Autoren aus Theologie, Geschichtswissenschaften, Germanistik und anderen historischen Fächern für die insgesamt 79 Beiträge des Bands zusammengefunden.Dem Konzept der Handbücher Theologie folgend stehen am Anfang des Bands Beiträge zu Archiven, Bibliotheken, Editionen, Digital Humanities und zur Forschungsgeschichte. Ein größerer Abschnitt lotet das Verhältnis des Pietismus zu ihn prägenden kirchen- und theologiegeschichtlichen Formationen und Figuren (z.B. Nadere Reformatie, Lutherische Orthodoxie, Jakob Böhme) aus. Zwei Hauptkapitel stellen zentrale Personen und Gruppen der Reformbewegung vor und untersuchen ihre Geschichte in unterschiedlichen politischen Kontexten (Städte, Territorien, Regionen und Länder). Einen Schwerpunkt bilden Beiträge zu zentralen theologischen Begriffen wie Rechtfertigung und Heiligung, Bekehrung, Geschichtsverständnis und Zukunftserwartung, zu wichtigen Aspekten der pietistischen Frömmigkeit wie Gemeinschafts- und Sozialformen, Bibel, Erbauungsliteratur, Lieder und Gesangbücher und Gefühle, sowie zu gesellschaftlichen und kulturellen Themen wie Geschlechterrollen, Pädagogik, soziales Handeln, Wirtschaft, Politik, Medizin und Architektur. Der Schlussabschnitt widmet sich den Beziehungen zu parallelen historischen Phänomenen wie Quietismus, Kabbala und Aufklärung und zur Nachwirkung u.a. in Erweckungsbewegung und Gemeinschaftsbewegung.

John Wiley and Sons Ltd Minimalist Syntax
Book Synopsis* collects key readings on Minimalist Syntax, the most recent - and arguably most important - theoretical development within the Principles and Parameters approach to syntactic theory. * includes an introduction and overview of the Minimalist Program written by two prominent researchers.Trade Review"The physicist Paul Dirac noted that the beauty of an equation is far more important than its fit to the experimental evidence. The Minimalist Program in linguistics, championed by Chomsky in the mid-1990s, is an attempt to seek beauty in the theory of linguistics. Minimalist Syntax synthesizes the current state of play, showing both the elegance of the theory, and its far reaching implications for not only the study of language, but the mind more generally. You may not agree with the perspective outlined, and may not find the evidence compelling, but if you don’t take the proposal seriously, you will miss out on what could be one of the most radical and intellectually stimulating theories of the mind in the 21st century." --Marc Hauser, Harvard College, author of Wild Minds (2000) and Moral Minds (2006). "A fine collection of excerpts from many of the most important and influential texts of the Minimalist Program. Organized by topic, the editors have helpfully juxtaposed selections from the literature to give the reader a feel for how debates progressed and how ideas were shaped. This book provides the essential core reading list for any course on minimalist syntactic theory. It is also a must-have all-in-one-place reference source for syntacticians." --Tim Stowell, UCLA "An authoritative and comprehensive volume detailing how the Minimalist Program developed out of earlier work, and making clever use of extracts from key works by the world’s leading scholars. A unique teaching and research resource." --Andrew Radford, University of EssexTable of ContentsAcknowledgements ix Introduction 1 1.
