Offering a multidisciplinary exploration of "flow" and the often-nebulous ways it is conceptualized and operationalized in writing pedagogy, this book addresses a critical gap in writing studies.
...Bringing together practice-based and scholarly perceptions, it outlines the key features and definitions of flow, and identifies pedagogical approaches and opportunities for classroom instruction. Incorporating perspectives from disciplines including classical rhetoric, composition studies, cognitive science, and linguistics, this book provides a diverse overview of the literature on flow in writing pedagogy. It includes two instructional voice-based and rhetorical grammar-based activities that outline how to recognize and improve flow in writing. In doing so, the book also provides clear examples of how to create an inclusive writing pedagogy that incorporates sensory and analytical perspectives to help readers and writers experience flow and meet their writing goals.
As an exploration of flow instruction as it currently stands and might stand in the future, this book will be of interest to students and instructors in the field of academic, professional, and creative writing studies.
En mariant le nom de Mucha au papier à cigarette Job, celui de Cassandre au « Dubo/Dubon/Dubonnet » ou de Savignac à la vache Monsavon, l’affiche a imprimé dans l’imaginaire collectif la mémoire de ...la publicité artistique. Mais qui se souvient que Victor Hugo associa sa signature à l’Encre Triple noire (pourtant réputée indélébile), que Raoul Ponchon, dans Le Courrier français, abonna sa plume aux Pastilles Géraudel, que Cocteau posa dans Paris-Match pour les téléviseurs Ribet-Desjardins ? De grands noms des belles-lettres comme Valéry, Cendrars, Giono ou Queneau, ont signé des textes publicitaires – de très beaux textes. Un tenace destin d’oubli, symptomatique du scandale que constitue le mélange de la littérature pure, gratuite, avec la « littérature » intéressée et appliquée, pèse sur les innombrables contributions des écrivains à la publicité depuis le xixe siècle. Ce volume s’emploie à redessiner l’un des visages les plus méconnus de l’écrivain et à éclairer une zone d’ombre de la « condition littéraire ». On y découvrira une galerie de portraits insolites, un album de famille inédit, où se trouvent réunis des auteurs apparemment aussi peu apparentés que Zola et les Gautier, Sacha Guitry et Léon-Paul Fargue, Paul Reboux et Robert Desnos. On y trouvera des informations sur les motivations diverses qui ont suscité et suscitent encore aujourd’hui de telles collaborations avec les marques, la manière dont a été vécu et « géré » le grand écart entre les exigences de l’œuvre et celles de la promotion marchande, le rôle joué par la publicité dans l’économie de la carrière littéraire.
This collection of original essays brings together museum, theatre, and performance case studies with a focus on their distinctive and overlapping modes of producing memory for transnational ...audiences. Whether this is through narrative, object, embodied encounter or a combination of the three, this volume considers distinctions and interactions between memory and history specifically through the lenses of theatre and performance studies, visual culture, and museum and curator studies. This book is underpinned by three areas of research enquiry: How are contemporary theatre makers and museum curators staging historical narratives of difficult pasts? How might comparisons between theatre and museum practices offer new insights into the role objects play in generating and representing difficult pasts? What points of overlap, comparison, and contrast among these constructions of history and memory of authoritarianism, slavery, colonialism, genocide, armed conflict, fascism, and communism might offer an expanded understanding of difficult pasts in these transnational cultural contexts? This collection is designed for any scholar of its central disciplines, as well as for those interested in cultural geography, memory studies, and postcolonial theory.

'Metonymy' is a type of figurative language used in everyday conversation, a form of shorthand that allows us to use our shared knowledge to communicate with fewer words than we would otherwise need. ...'I'll pencil you in' and 'let me give you a hand' are both examples of metonymic language. Metonymy serves a wide range of communicative functions such as textual cohesion, humour, irony, euphemism and hyperbole - all of which play a key role in the development of language and discourse communities. Using authentic data throughout, this book shows how metonymy operates, not just in language, but also in gesture, sign language, art, music, film and advertising. It explores the role of metonymy in cross-cultural communication, along with the challenges it presents to language learners and translators. Ideal for researchers and students in linguistics and literature, as well as teachers and general readers interested in the art of communication.
