    内容简介:
    《情感话语的多维度研究——以抱怨会话为例》从社会语言学和语用学角度出发,以抱怨会话为例,对其中蕴含的情感话语进行会话分析,以探究情感话语在交际中的特征、表现,以及与框架和立场密不可分的关系。本书所分析的情感话语指含有情感信息的话语,既包括明确指示情感的情感语言,也包括隐含表达情感的情感性语言。情感话语遍布整个语言系统,是人类交际的必要组成部分。任何会话中都可能有潜在的情感话语,交际者通过情感话语来施行各种言语行为。因此,语言和情感的关系已经引起多方学者的关注,主要涵盖认知语言学、语言人类学、心理语言学、社会语言学、计算语言学、语用学等多个领域。本书选取抱怨会话中存在的大量情感话语作为特定分析对象。所用语料采集自电视剧和真人秀,包括33个不同情景和社会关系中的对话片段。鉴于会话分析在考察话语序列性和交际性方面的优势,本书将结合立场的三个方面,即对立场客体的评价(客观性)、说话主体的定位(主观性)和会话者间定位的比较(主体间性),对抱怨言语行为中的情感话语进行会话分析。

    Henry David Thoreau’s Walking is a profound meditation on nature, freedom, and self-discovery. Originally published in 1862, this classic essay explores the philosophy of walking as both a physical and spiritual act, emphasizing the importance of immersing oneself in the wild, untamed beauty of the natural world. Thoreau argues that walking is not merely a pastime but a way to achieve a deeper connection with the land, free from societal constraints and distractions. 
    Narrated by Declan McHugh, this audiobook brings Thoreau’s lyrical prose to life, guiding listeners through his reflections on wilderness, solitude, and personal growth. His insights remain as relevant today as they were in the 19th century, inspiring modern readers to step away from the noise of civilization and embrace the tranquility of nature. 
    An essential work for lovers of philosophy, nature writing, and transcendentalist thought, Walking is a timeless call to slow down, wander, and rediscover the world beyond paved roads and crowded cities.

    The formation of the European Union (EU) is the result of decades of political, economic, and social evolution, shaped by the aftermath of two World Wars and the desire for long-lasting peace and prosperity in Europe. The idea of a united Europe emerged from the devastation of the Second World War, with leaders recognizing that unity among European nations could prevent future conflicts and create a foundation for collective economic growth. 
    The origins of European integration can be traced back to the 1950s, following the end of World War II. The primary motivation was the need to secure peace and ensure stability in a continent scarred by war. The first major step in the process was the creation of the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) in 1951. The ECSC, established by the six founding members—Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and West Germany—was a pioneering effort in economic cooperation. By pooling coal and steel production, the ECSC aimed to make war between these countries materially impossible, as it would require the cooperation of nations whose economies were intertwined. 
    The next pivotal moment came in 1957, with the signing of the Treaty of Rome, which established the European Economic Community (EEC). The Treaty of Rome sought to deepen economic cooperation and foster a common market, removing trade barriers, creating a customs union, and enabling the free movement of goods, services, capital, and people. This was a significant step towards realizing the vision of a unified Europe.
