Beschreibung

In "Lectures on the Science of Language," F. Max Müller embarks on a comprehensive exploration of linguistics, emphasizing the relationship between language, thought, and culture. Through a series of engaging lectures, Müller employs a clear and accessible style, merging philosophical inquiry with empirical observation. He critiques the prevailing theories of his time while offering a systematic examination of language acquisition and its evolutionary significance. The work is set against the backdrop of 19th-century philology, where the study of language was emerging as a crucial discipline in understanding human civilization. F. Max Müller, a renowned philologist and a pivotal figure in the development of comparative linguistics, was profoundly influenced by the cultural narratives of his time. His extensive travels in India and his engagement with Sanskrit literature imbued him with a deep appreciation for linguistic diversity. Müller's academic journey, rooted in the intersection of language and spirituality, equipped him to address the complexities surrounding linguistic evolution and its implications on social identity, shaping his arguments in this seminal work. For scholars, students, and language enthusiasts alike, "Lectures on the Science of Language" serves as an indispensable resource. It not only offers foundational insights into linguistic science but also encourages a broader understanding of humanity's interconnectedness through language. This profound exploration will enrich any reader's appreciation of the nuanced relationship between language and cultural identity.

The individual lessons are divided into the topics of travelling by car, travelling by plane, travel destinations, in a hotel, in a restaurant,on a trip,   shopping and chatting.  Listening to this course you can combine the pleasant with the useful - you will refresh your holiday vocabulary and revise your German in general at the same time.What is the best way to work with the course? Choose the lesson you want to start with. Each lesson contains six tracks. First,  familiarize yourself with the actual vocabulary (tracks 1 and 2). In order to get a better grip over the new expressions  in German, in track one you hear the  German word twice. Next, you have a  word  followed by a contextual sentence, again in both translation options (tracks 3 and 4).  Then you move on to complete sentences (tracks 5 and 6). ). Again, in track 5, you will hear the sentence in German twice. Once you have mastered translating sentences from English into German (lesson 6) in the time gap before the English translation, you have won. The words alone will help you in understanding the meaning, but using the mastered complete sentences will help you communicate much better.There is a script to this course available for free download at www.audioacademyeu.eu which will make your activities with the course much more effective.

    A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2023 by The Millions 
    ""A wonderfully fitting tribute to Joan Didion: one that avoids simple platitudes, approaching the great writer with a fierce, probing intelligence, flawless language, and the impulse, which drove Didion's finest work, to understand the dreams of another."" — Hua Hsu, Pulitzer-winning author of Stay True 
    An intimate exploration of the life, craft, and legacy of one of the most revered and influential writers, an artist who continues to inspire fans and creatives to cultivate practices of deep attention, rigorous interrogation and beautiful style. 
    Joan Didion was a writer’s writer; not only a groundbreaking journalist, essayist, novelist and screenwriter, but a keen observer who honed her sights on life’s telling details. Her insights continue to influence creatives and admirers, encouraging them to become close observers of the world, unsentimental critics, and meticulous stylists. 
    An antidote to a global view that narrows our vision to the smallest screens, The World According To Joan Didion is a meditation on the people, places, and objects that propelled Didion’s prose and an invitation to journalists, storytellers, and life adventurers to “throw themselves into the convulsions of the world,” as she once said. 
    Evelyn McDonnell, the acclaimed journalist, essayist, critic, feminist, native Californian, and university professor who regularly teaches Didion’s work, is attuned to interpret Didion’s vision for readers today. Inspired by Didion’s own words—from her works both published and unpublished—and informed by the people who knew Didion and those whose lives she shaped, The World According to Joan Didion is an illustrated journey through her life, tracing the path she carved from Sacramento, Portuguese Bend, Los Angeles, and Malibu to Manhattan, Miami, and Hawaii. McDonnell reveals the world as it was seen through Didion’s eyes and explores her work in chapters keyed to the singular physical motifs of her writing: Snake. Typewriter. Hotel. Notebook. Girl. Etc. 
    One of the first books to be published after the revered writer’s death in 2021, The World According to Joan Didion is a literary companion for those embarking on new journeys and a guide to innovative ways of being. It will radically transform the way you explore the world, and will help you answer the question as you sit in a café, or on a plane or train, pondering the future: What would Joan Didion have seen?
