Cognitive Linguistics in Critical Discourse Analysis by Christopher Hart,Dominik Lukeš Pdf
In contemporary linguistics, both cognitive and critical approaches to language have been elaborated in some detail. Unfortunately, the two perspectives have seldom converged, despite the potential theoretical advances such collaboration offers. The contributions to this volume explore the convergence of cognitive and critical trends in the guise of cognitive linguistics and critical discourse analysis. The volume addresses a range of socio-political discourses in various international contexts, including discourses on nation, education, immigration, and war. One single integrated model is not presented, but rather, a number of methodologies are developed and assessed across the chapters. The application of established cognitive linguistic theories, including conceptual metaphor theory, conceptual blending theory and frame semantics, are discussed, as well as developing theories, such as metaphor power theory and discourse space theory. The book is of value to anyone interested in the interaction between language, mind, and society, including both students and scholars of cognitive linguistics and critical discourse analysis.
It’s My Time is a story of God using life’s circumstances and events to shape his people. Josh Phillips grew up in a Christian home as the youngest of seven, with dreams of following in his dad’s footsteps, playing professional football. His competitive drive and work ethic paved the way for some championship moments; however, each step toward his goal of professional football brought additional obstacles. Josh wrestled with God’s plans for his life and questioned his purpose amidst each trial. But through it all, God was faithful—and continues to be in every moment. It’s My Time is designed for readers to journey into spiritual transformation. Josh Phillips encourages believers to delve into applicable scripture and ponder how God’s hand is at work in their own lives. A unique feature at the end of each chapter, the Red Zone Check, encourages personal reflection on God’s role as author of each person’s story.
In Second to None, author Joe Valerio tells the incredible story of the Buffalo Bills: the perpetual almost-champions and their indomitable fans. The Bills' incredible skill and teamwork on the field was matched only by their single-minded determination as, in the four years spanning 1991 to 1994, the team won four consecutive conference championships, and lost four consecutive Super Bowls. The peaks and nadirs of their record reflect a fascinatingly dynamic, uneven, and—at times—uncontrollable array of talents. Valerio renders in sharp detail how the Bills' unique culture was formed by an unlikely ecosystem of world-class athletes hunkered down in bleak western New York, far away from the celebrity playgrounds of other pro teams. Meticulously researched and carefully crafted, this one-of-a-kind look inside the Super Bowl-era Buffalo Bills is based on extensive interviews with the key players, coaches, and management, including Hall of Famers Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas, Bruce Smith, as well as coach Marv Levy, general manager Bill Polian, and many others, including players and coaches from opposing teams, and the reporters who covered them.

Geoff Colvin, author of Talent Is Overrated: What really separates world-class performance believes the answer lies inside two questions: what do you really want? And what do you really believe? He says, "Great performance is not reserved for a preordained few. It is available to you and to everyone." Listen! Every champion sooner or later discovers this.
