Topics in Oceanic Morphosyntax


Book Description

This monograph is a collection of selected papers on Oceanic languages. For the first time, aspects of the morphology and syntax of Oceanic languages such as the encoding of sentence types, the structure of the noun phrase, noun incorporation, constituent order, and ergative vs. accusative alignment are discussed from a comparative point of view, thus drawing attention to genetic, areal and language-specific features. The individual papers are based on the field work of the authors on lesser-described and endangered languages and are basically descriptive studies. At the same time they also explore the theoretical implications of the data presented and analyzed, as well as the historical development of certain morpho-syntactic phenomena, without basing these explorations on a single theoretical framework. The book provides new insights into the morphosyntactic structures of Oceanic languages and is of interest primarily for linguists working on Austronesian, in particular Melanesian, Micronesian, and Polynesian languages, but also for typologists and linguists working on language change.

Summary of Mark Stephens & Mariel Hemmingway's Teaching Yoga


Book Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Yoga has a rich and complex history that dates back to the ancient cultures of India. It arose from a combination of spiritual exploration, philosophical reflection, scientific experimentation, and spontaneous creative expression. #2 The history of yoga is thousands of years old, and it is believed that the first written sources on yoga are found in ancient Hindu spiritual texts known as the Vedas. The Rig Veda, considered by many to be of divine origin, contains hymns that reflect the mystical exploration of consciousness, being, and connection with the divine. #3 The primary form of meditation in the Vedic tradition is through mantra, the repetitive singing of certain sounds. The sounds themselves are put forth by the seers in what is considered a pure form of divine expression. #4 The Upanishads are a collection of writings on yoga that were written in India during the Vedic period. They believe in a universal spirit, brahman, and an individual soul, atman. The practices described in the Upanishads are not similar to what we find in most yoga classes in the Western world today, but they do shape the language and experience of teaching.
