  Dirty Linen - The Troubles In My...

  Martin Doyle

  Martin Doyle, Books Editor of The Irish Times, offers a personal, intimate history of the Troubles seen through the microcosm of a single rural parish, his own, part of both the Linen Triangle – heartland of the North’s defining industry – and the Murder Triangle – the Badlands roamed by the Glenanne gang of security forces colluding with loyalist paramilarites. He lifts the veil of silence drawn over the horrors of the past, recording in heartrending detail the terrible toll the conflict took – more than 20 violent deaths in a few square miles – and the long tail of trauma it has left behind. He also conveys the texture of the times, the high streets where cars could not be left unattended, the newsflashes, the constant background buzz of threat and fear. 
  Neighbours and classmates who lost loved ones in the conflict, survivors maimed in bomb attacks and victims of sectarianism, both Catholic and Protestant, entrust him with their stories. Doyle marries his local knowledge with a literary sensibility and skilfully shows how the once dominant local linen industry serves as a metaphor for both communal division but also the solidarity that transcended the sectarian divide. 
  To those who might ask why you would want to reopen old wounds, the answer might be that some wounds have never been allowed to heal. It is by sharing our stories that we build a ridge of common ground from which good things can grow.

  Spiritual and practical lessons are extracted from every verse of the Book of Matthew, as well as detailed explanation of the text. The Book of Matthew is part of the New Testament in the Holy Bible and is one of the four gospels. The other 3 gospels are Mark, Luke, and John. Matthew was a tax collector before becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ. The style of his gospel suggests that he was directing his message to Jewish readers. His work aims to systematically prove that Jesus Christ is the messiah who has been prophesied about in the Old Testament. He did this by revealing each prophecy in that book fulfilled by Jesus Christ.

  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。
