Virginia Woolf (January 25, 1882 - March 28, 1941) was an English writer from Kensington, London, who pioneered a narrative mode called "stream of consciousness" to describe the thoughts and feelings of the narrator. Regarded as one of the most prominent modernist 20th-century writers, Woolf's works have gained much attention for inspiring feminism, as well as, numerous films, novels, and plays. The following recording is from a radio broadcast on April 29th, 1937.Voir livre
A brief and humorous 500-year history of the Simplified Spelling Movement from advocates like Ben Franklin, C. S. Lewis, and Mark Twain to texts and Twitter. Why does the G in George sound different from the G in gorge? Why does C begin both case and cease? And why is it funny when a philologist faints, but not polight to laf about it? Anyone who has ever had the misfortune to write in English has, at one time or another, struggled with its spelling. So why do we continue to use it? If our system of writing words is so tragically inconsistent, why haven’t we standardized it, phoneticized it, brought it into line? How many brave linguists have ever had the courage to state, in a declaration of phonetic revolt: “Enough is enuf”? The answer: many. In the comic annals of linguistic history, legions of rebel wordsmiths have died on the hill of spelling reform, risking their reputations to bring English into the realm of the rational. This book is about them: Mark Twain, Ben Franklin, Eliza Burnz, C. S. Lewis, George Bernard Shaw, Charles Darwin, and the innumerable others on both sides of the Atlantic who, for a time in their life, became fanatically occupied with writing thru instead of through, tho for though, laf for laugh, beleev for believe, and dawter for daughter (and tried futilely to get everyone around them to do it too). Henry takes his humorous and informative chronicle right up to today as the language seems to naturally be simplifying to fit the needs of our changing world thanks to technology—from texting to Twitter and emojis, the Simplified Spelling Movement may finally be having its day.

Language plays a fundamental role in human life, functioning not only as a means of communication but as a structure that shapes the way we think, perceive, and understand the world. The philosophy of language seeks to unravel the complex relationships between words, meanings, and reality, exploring how language functions, how it conveys meaning, and how it relates to the world and our experiences. This chapter serves as an introduction to these foundational issues and provides an overview of the central questions and debates within the philosophy of language. At its core, language is a system of symbols—words, phrases, and sentences—that represent concepts, objects, and actions. Understanding language, however, requires more than just examining its structure. It involves questioning how words acquire meaning, how those meanings change in different contexts, and how language can both represent and distort reality. This inquiry into meaning is not limited to how words correspond to things in the world, but also explores how they function in communication, how they shape thought, and how they reflect the underlying structures of human experience. The structure of language itself is another crucial aspect. Language is governed by rules—such as syntax, grammar, and semantics—that allow words to be combined in meaningful ways. Syntax provides the framework for sentence structure, while grammar dictates how words should be used within that structure. Semantics, on the other hand, deals with the meaning of words and how they combine to form meaning within a sentence. Each of these aspects must be understood in relation to each other to grasp how language functions at a deeper level.Voir livre
