Abstract

"Learning and memory processes are basic features of human existence. They allow us to (un)consciously adapt to changes in our social and physical environment in a variety of ways and may have been a precursor for survival in human evolution. Through several reviews and original work the book focuses on three key topics that enhanced our understanding of the topic in the last twenty years: first, the role of real-time auditory feedback in learning, second, the role of motor aspects for learning and memory, and third, representations in memory and the role of sleep on memory consolidation"--

Abstract

This volume of Skriftkultur illustrates how the cross-disciplinary field of writing culture can provide new perspectives on fundamental questions. A definitive foundation of all research and scholarly activity is that it is based in writing. This is true not only within the humanities, but in all scientific disciplines. Scientific theories and modes of thought are linguistic constructions within cultural communities, and science happens in written form. Basic issues in exploring language and writing are thus also basic issues in other written language practices, whether they are scientific or more general. The relationship between a language, texts the language is the basis of, and awareness of the language users is precisely about such basic issues. What are our grounds for understanding, describing and explaining these situations, and to what extent do different subjects and disciplines provide different approaches and answers to such questions?.

Abstract

Utgangspunktet for dette nummeret av Skriftkultur er at det no er 150 år sidan Ivar Aasen lanserte landsmålet, som den gongen var utan valfridom i form- og bøyingsverket, og at dette skriftspråket av bestemte historiske årsaker har utvikla seg til eit nynorsk skriftspråk som er kjenneteikna av stor valfridom jamført med dei aller fleste andre offisielle skriftspråk i verda. Stendig nye rettskrivingar gjennom det 20. hundreåret medførte både motstand mot og vanskar ved implementeringa av reformene. Forlag og avishus laga sine eigne husnormer, og ei rekkje studiar har vist at elevar, studentar og jamvel lærarar har hatt vanskar med å halde styr på kva som til ei kvar tid er tillatne former i nynorsk. Samstundes blir norske elevar og studentar truleg eksponerte for meir bokmål enn nynorsk jamvel i kjerneområda for nynorsken på Vestlandet, noko som kan skape utfordringar for nynorskbrukarar. Gjennom seks vitskaplege artiklar diskuterer forfattarane utfordringane og moglegheitene som knyter seg til bruk av, eksponering for og opplæring i det nynorske skriftspråket. Artiklane inkluderer spørsmål knytt til bruk av husnormer i nynorskorganisasjonar, avvik frå nynorskrettskrivinga i elevtekstar og eksponering for og opplæring i nynorsk i utdanningsinstitusjonar. I eit vidare perspektiv handlar spørsmålet om tradering av nynorsk også om kva plass og funksjonar språket fyller, det vil seie kva slags sosial praksis som ligg til grunn for nynorsken. Publikasjonen rettar seg mot studentar, forskarar og andre som er opptekne av det den nynorske skriftkulturelle praksisen. The starting point for this issue of Skriftkultur is the 150th anniversary of Ivar Aasen's launch of a national language, which at the time lacked freedom of choice in form and conjugation, but has since developed, for specific historical reasons, into today's Nynorsk, characterized by great freedom of choice compared to the vast majority of other official written languages in the world. Constant changes to the language's orthography throughout the 20th century led to both resistance to and difficulties in implementing the reforms. Publishers and newspapers created their own house rules, and a number of studies have shown that students at all levels and even teachers have had difficulty keeping track of what is correct in Nynorsk at any given time. Likewise, students probably have greater exposure to Bokmål than Nynorsk, even in the core area for Nynorsk in Western Norway, which can create challenges for Nynorsk users. In the six scholarly articles, the authors discuss the challenges and opportunities linked to the use of, exposure to and instruction in written Nynorsk. The articles include questions related to the use of house styles in Nynorsk organisations, deviations from standard Nynorsk orthography in student texts, and exposure to and instruction in Nynorsk in educational settings. In a broader perspective, the question of Nynorsk's continuing evolution also concerns the place and functions the language fills, that is to say, the kinds of social practices that are at the foundation of Nynorsk. This publication will be relevant for students, researchers and others who are interested in written Nynorsk practices.

Abstract

During the sixteenth and seventeenth century large parts of Italy were under Spanish dominion, the consequence of which was a linguistic contact that lasted over 200 years. However, due to the traditionally tight link between Italian language historiography and national historiography, the multilingual communicative space of Spanish Italy has only recently become an object of research. By focusing on four Spanish-dominated areas - the two metropolises of Naples (Regno di Napoli) and Milan (Milanesado), as well as the two islands of Sicily (Regno di Sicilia) and Sardinia (Regno di Sardegna) - the present work therefore presents a fundamental, extensive, and comparative case study of the history of plurilingualism and of letterpress printing in Italia spagnola. For the first time, even methodologically, letterpress printing will be considered as an indicator of plurilingualism, and not simply as a gauge for Tuscanisation, as scholars have previously concluded. The corpus, which has been elaborated on the basis of a specifically developed online title-database consisting of over 3.000 Spanish, bi- and multilingual printed works, is analyzed by combining quantification and qualification methods. The statistical evaluation of book production and distribution of languages and domains associated therewith have been integrated, or rather validated, by qualitative comments on exemplary single works. Herein, the following questions have been examined: How is multilingualism generally, and with regard to the Spanish language in particular, reflected in book production? How often and in which domains of discourse is Spanish used? Which profiles of competence of the producers (authors and printers) and the recipients can be qualitatively traced through single printed works? What evidence of the conventionalization of multilingualism in the form of linguistic teaching material can be provided? Which plurilinguistic practices can be reconstructed on the basis of the prints? Is bilingualism or multilingualism reflected on (and eventually how), and, if so, how is it discussed and assessed? How does the respective communicative space, characterized by the constant presence of the Spanish language, configure itself in the consciousness of the communicants within the field of perceptive linguistics? Thus, the aim was to investigate the degree of Hispanicization of Spanish Italy on the basis of the quantified printed language, and to discuss the practices of multilingualism, the attitudes towards the Spanish language, and how plurilingualism was reflected in selected printed works and their paratexts. The overall segment of the Spanish book production can be defined as a marginal phenomenon with a limited target group, and therefore multilingualism in Spanish Italy, when considered through letterpress printing, assumes an elitist status. However, the respective empirical results of the four partial corpora offer prominent regional differences, with each of the four communicative spaces presenting with their own, specific profile of multilingualism. The contrast of the single cases thus leads to a typology between Spanish Sardinia and the other three areas. The case reconstructions furnish the evidence that Spanish Sardinia, for reasons beyond existing language politics, represents the exception, or rather, the extreme case of problem-focused plurilingualism and Hispanicization. The remaining three areas (Naples, Milan and Sicily) bundle to form a second type - on account of their indifference towards language diversity as well as their pragmatic, mostly implicit, conventionalized handling of multilingualism, they can be classified as normal cases of language contact.

Abstract

"This volume brings together linguistic, psychological and neurological research in a discussion of the Cognitive Dualism Hypothesis, whose central idea is that human cognitive activity in general and linguistic cognition in particular cannot reasonably be reduced to a single, monolithic system of mental processing, but that they have a dualistic organization. Drawing on a wide range of methodological approaches and theoretical frameworks that account for how language users mentally represent, process and produce linguistic discourse, the studies in this volume provide a critical examination of dualistic approaches to language and cognition and their impact on a number of fields. The topics range from formulaic language, the study of reasoning and linguistic discourse, and the lexicon-grammar distinction to studies of specific linguistic expressions and structures such as pragmatic markers and particles, comment adverbs, extra-clausal elements in spoken discourse and the processing of syntactic groups"--
