Voicing Politics: How Language Shapes Public Opinion Prez Efrn

Why your political beliefs are influenced by the language you speakVoicing Politics brings together the latest findings from psychology and political science to reveal how the linguistic peculiarities of different languages can have meaningful consequences for political attitudes and beliefs around the world. Efrn Prez and Margit Tavits demonstrate that different languages can make mental content more or less accessible and thereby shift political opinions and preferences in predictable directions. They rigorously test this hypothesis using carefully crafted experiments and rich cross-national survey data, showing how language shapes mass opinion in domains such as gender equality, LGBTQ rights, environmental conservation, ethnic relations, and candidate evaluations.Voicing Politics traces how these patterns emerge in polities spanning the globe,

Red, White & Royal Blue okładka filmowa

Rozszerzone wydanie powieści, którą pokochały miliony czytelników na całym świecie!Alex Claremont-Diaz jest tą osobą, która jako jedyna w całych Stanach Zjednoczonych ma status równy księciu. Wraz ze swoją nieustraszoną siostrą June i genialną Norą, wnuczką wiceprezydenta USA, tworzą Trio z Białego Domu, jeden z kluczowych elementów strategii polityczno-marketingowej obecnej głowy państwa, Ellen Claremont (znanej też jako „mama”). Na ogół Alex z obowiązkami radzi sobie brawurowo – na ogół, bo gdy kłótnia z jego wrogiem numer jeden, księciem Henrym z Wielkiej Brytanii, kończy się wylądowaniem w torcie na królewskim weselu, młody mężczyzna staje się celem tabloidów z całego globu. Dobre relacje między oddzielonymi Atlantykiem państwami wiszą na włosku. Zespoły PR obu krajów wpadają na pomysł, jak zaradzić szkodom: trzeba udowodnić światu, że Alexa i Henry’ego łączy nie nienawiść, ale wielka przyjaźń. Tylko że to, co na początku miało być fałszywą relacją dla mediów, szybko staje się czymś więcej. Tymczasem w Stanach Ellen Claremont zaczyna walkę o reelekcję, a romans między jej synem a brytyjskim księciem może okazać się tym, co zniszczy całą jej kampanię… Czy Alex i Henry znajdą w sobie odwagę i siłę, by powiedzieć głośno, co do siebie czują? I jeśli to zrobią, to czy poradzą sobie z konsekwencjami tej decyzji?

The Last Irish Question: Will Six Into Twenty-Six Ever Go? Patterson Glenn

A view of the south of Ireland - political, social, geographical - through the eyes of a liberal northern protestant being asked to rejoin it. 'A pleasure to read, forensically and wittily observed, incisively mixing memoir, reportage and analysis' Daily Mail 'He has a light touch, a way of glancing off things and leaving our perception of them changed. He can dazzle. He tells a good story' Irish TimesThe reunification of Ireland, which seemed in 1998 to have been pushed over the far horizon as an aspiration, has returned with a vengeance. Brexit calls into question the British commitment to Northern Ireland and threatens its economy. There has been a surge in support for Sinn Fein south of the border. This is a dangerous and divisive issue, and will become more so if Sinn Fein enters the government of the Republic, as seems inevitable in the next couple of years. They are

Autobiography of a Schizophrenic Girl: The True Story of Renee Sechehaye Marguerite

This is the astonishing memoir of a young woman called only "Renee," whose descent into schizophrenia began at the age of five. Written with a diamond-sharp precision that lends it an eerie power, it tells the story of Renee's long sojourn in what she calls "The Land of Enlightenment" or "The Country of Tibet" and of her gradual and painstaking return to "wonderful reality."Renee moves in and out of hospitals, sometimes able to eat only tea and spinach, or apples and spinach, because "'The System forbade anything else." She regresses to a state resembling infancy, and she experiences intense despair, although she always describes her experiences with a pitiless and remarkable calm, as though she has observed herself from a great distance. And all the while she is sustained by the attention and understanding of her analyst, Marguerite Sechehaye, who has contributed an illuminating

Pope Alexander VI is determined to execute him after realizing that the painting contains clues to a baffling -- and blasphemous -- message, which he is determined to decode. The Holy Grail and the Eucharistic Bread are missing, there is no meat on the table and, shockingly, the apostles are portraits of well-known heretics -- none of them depicted with halos.

Krizové situace ve škole

Často se dozvídáme o případech šikany, násilí a podobného rizikového chování ve školním prostředí. Termínem „krizové situace“ v názvu knihy se rozumějí ohrožující situace, které vyžadují rychlá, samostatná, a především správná rozhodnutí. Na jedné straně jde o běžná rizika, například při dozoru nad žáky během akcí mimo budovu školy, s nimiž se pedagogové setkávají běžně, ale na straně druhé jsou to i nejrůznější mimořádné situace, často odrážející životní styl celé společnosti. Cílem knihy je přispět k vytváření bezpečnostního a právního povědomí především pedagogů a ostatních zaměstnanců škol, ale i studentů pedagogických oborů a v neposlední řadě všech, kdo pracují s dětmi a mládeží.

The Wallace Blind Harry

This extraordinary poem has been widely popular and influential ever since it was written in the fifteenth century, and its heroic account of the swordfighter Wallace was to symbolise the cause of liberty and independence to many other countries and cultures in the centuries to come.Looking back to the days of the Bruce and the war of independence, Blind Harry's poem is not an aristocratic tale of chivalry and nobility, but a vivid account of the vagaries of war and the brutal realities of battle, wounding and betrayal, all seen from the point of view of the troops in the field.The fruit of many years of scholarship, Anne McKim has produced what is unquestionably the definitive edition of this truly epic

Martin, Sr. was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's Disease, better known as ALS, in August 2019. He died only a month later.

The Phenomenology of Spirit Hegel

G. W. F. Hegel's first masterpiece, the Phenomenology of Spirit, is one of the great works of philosophy. It remains, however, one of the most challenging and mysterious books ever written.

The Sense of Rhythm: A Semiotic Investigation of a Fundamental Device Ceriani Giulia

The importance of rhythm spans time and space, its significance both natural and constructed. As contemporary society challenges us to search for connection, the question of rhythm is profoundly and uniquely capable of managing the exchange and dialogue between deep narrativity and surface figurativeness.A semiotic examination of the regulative efficacy of rhythm is at the centre of The Sense of Rhythm, which frames rhythm as a characteristic of texts and narratives in order to organize and sense meaning. Rhythm is capable of creating and conveying a passionate tone, and of fostering cross-disciplinary and cross-textual convergences. An awareness and recognition of rhythmic structure allows for potential to cross-code between perception and sensation across cultures.This new edition, published for the first time in English, brings semiotician Giulia Ceriani's
