The main aim of this article is to present a new method of analysing the expressive function of characters’ proper names in a novel. Although this role was identified over half a century ago, it has not received scholars’ attention and nearly no research has been done to advance its study. The onomastic material examined in this paper comes from the “Harry Potter” series and includes over one hundred...

Keiko Naruoka

Journal of Pragmatics > 2014 > 69 > Complete > 4-21

Demonstratives have been studied extensively in the field of pragmatics. This paper first identifies the methodological problems of the previous demonstrative studies, pointing out that they (1) pay too much attention to the referential function, (2) employ constructed examples to build abstract theories, and (3) examine only the distinctive uses and meanings of demonstrative types. For an understanding...

Journal of Business Research > 2012 > 65 > 11 > 1600-1605

Industries continually launch new generations of technology to attract consumers. However, the elements of new technology that attract consumers vary across countries.

Unjust laws and illegal norms

Emanuela Carbonara, Francesco Parisi, Georg von Wangenheim

International Review of Law & Economics > 2012 > 32 > 3 > 285-299

Due to a variety of circumstances, lawmakers occasionally create laws whose aims are perceived as outright unjust by the majority of the people. In other situations, the law may utilize improper means for the pursuit of a just goal. In all such cases, lawmaking processes generate rules that do not reflect the values of the underlying population. In these cases individuals may face legal commands or...

DECORATIVE ENGLISH IN JAPAN

Magdalena CIUBĂNCAN

Concordia Discors vs Discordia Concors: Researches into Comparative Literature,... > 2012 > 4 > 127-146

The present paper offers an analysis of the so-called “decorative (or ornamental) English”, as it appears in Japanese advertisements and various announcements. We make a clear distinction between English loanwords, wasei-eigo (‘made-in-Japan’ English) and decorative English and we address the question of whether the function of decorative English is to merely accessorize the message or to become a...

Sirkku Ikonen

Synthese > 2011 > 179 > 1 > 187-202

My purpose in this paper is to look at Cassirer’s relation to critical philosophy from a new perspective. Most discussions concerning Cassirer’s Kantianism have so far centered on his relation to neo-Kantianism and the Marburg school. My focus will not be on neo-Kantianism but on Cassirer’s notion of a “critique of culture.” In an often cited paragraph from the introduction to The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms...

Аksiologičeskaja cennost’ metafory

Aloyzas Gudavichyus

Etnolingwistyka. Problemy Języka i Kultury > 2004 > 16 > 191-199

Metaphor is dealt with from the position of cognitive linguistics. Key differences between the new and the traditional approach towards metaphor fall under three oppositions: predication versus nomination, conventionality versus individuality, thinking strategy versus comparison. Evaluation in metaphor is not the 'conditio sine qua non' but is nevertheless very frequent and closely related to the...
