In this paper, I discuss La Prose du Transsibérien et de la petite Jeanne de France by Blaise Cendrars, a narrative poem first published in French in Paris in 1913. The poem has raised seemingly intractable questions for many years, given its status as one of the most important modernist poems, and one of the most important poems in 20th century French poetry. As I argue, considering some of the issues from the perspective of cognitive stylistics, especially the theory of conceptual integration, may help explain how readers make sense of this complicated poem.

This research aims at examining how the cognitive stylistic model of analysis can be useful in the interpretation of African skits. The analytical process reveals how viewers make interpretive connections between the text-world and the real world, by bringing their experience and background knowledge to interact with the text. Two skits – one Nigerian and one Ghanaian – were purposively retrieved from YouTube for the analysis, using a qualitative approach within the cognitive stylistic framework of Text World Theory. We discovered a congruence of the cognitive faculty, experience, and epistemic perceptions leading to the construction of the discourse worlds of the skits.

The aim of this work is to demonstrate and illustrate the pervasive existence of points of convergence between literature and language in general and form and meaning in particular. Specifically, the connection between language and literature is explored with specific reference to one of the germinal works of English literature, Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice in the light of the principles and taxonomies of Brown and Levinson’s Politeness Theory, with special focus on requests. A further twist added to the analysis presented in this work comes from a relatively fine-nuanced contrastive (English-Spanish) analysis of requests strategies using as the database of analysis a Spanish translation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice (Rodríguez, 2018).

This study lies within the framework of the years 1945-1955, which correspond to Clement Attlee’s Labourite and Winston Churchill’s Conservative administrations. The objective is to demonstrate, by means of an analysis of their speeches and the proposals of their respective political parties, that the ideological differences hindered a total agreement. These primary sources are examined from several perspectives. The main emphasis of this study falls on the ideology as a distinctive element and its influence on other fields such as education, the welfare system or the economy. The results reveal a lack of consensus based on their opposite political cultures.

Este artículo analiza la representación metafórica del estrés traumático en la obra de Jewell Parker Rhodes Towers Falling (2016) desde un enfoque estilístico. El estudio aplica principios de la Teoría de la Metáfora Conceptual (CMT) de Lakoff & Johnson (1980) a las metáforas seleccionadas de la novela. El análisis identifica dos tipos de metáforas relacionadas con el trauma. El primero, las metáforas traumáticas de Deja, en las que aparecen dominios Fuente como MÁSCARA DE HALLOWEEN, CONGELAR, o ROBOT. El Segundo, el estrés traumático de Pop es expresado utilizando estructuras conceptuales de dominios Fuente de naturaleza variada, tales como TORMENTA, TERREMOTO, PESADILLA, MORIR y GEMIDO. El estudio concluye que las metáforas que conceptualizan el estrés traumático en la obra en cuestión son EL CUERPO ES UN RECIPIENTE DE EMOCIONES y EL TRAUMA ES UN RECIPIENTE.

Lillian Smith and Katharine Du Pre Lumpkin provide a subversive framework for the history of the South through the genre of autobiography. This paper will explore how both authors use a double voice to articulate their confrontation with the Lost Cause. On the one hand, the child protagonist is a Southerner and therefore an insider and participant, while on the other hand, the adult protagonist subverts the dominant social discourse thanks to a critical distance which is both physical and psychological. Smith and Lumpkin use autobiography to challenge tradition, hence subverting the central roles of race and gender.

Jesús Bolaño Quintero
At the turn of the millennium, the young writers of the New Sincerity movement tried to create a new realist literature by getting rid of the destructive power of postmodern irony. The consecrated writers of the old postmodern guard, whose Weltanschauung was conformed to the style and the relativistic reality-processing modes of the previous paradigm, saw this change with scepticism. Nevertheless, there was a change in their sensibility when approaching certain themes. This article analyses Paul Auster’s Sunset Park as paradigmatic example of that shift in order to shed some light on its nature.

This article analyses Jean Rhys’ 1939 novel Good Morning, Midnight from the standpoint of spatial and gender theory. Firstly, it explores the portrayal of gendered spaces in the modern city. In order to do so, it examines how Sasha Jensen challenges spatial constraints but is then identified as a stranger to the social order. Secondly, a parallelism between the urban automatisation of production and the female body is established to explore how consumer culture affects Sasha. Finally, it examines how the influence that Sasha’s fractured subjectivity has on her social encounters, which situate her on a liminal space.

This paper aims at exploring adoption and foster care discourse (AFD) so as to uncover the role of multimodal novel metaphor, and the resulting ad hoc concepts, in (re)addressing (AF) narratives. It specifically focuses on the picture book Speranza’s Sweater (Pusey and Mello, 2018), and the extended conceptual metaphor a life story (of a child [in adoption or foster care]) is a sweater, as well as the net of minor related metaphors. These are analysed following Romero and Soria’s (1997, 2005a, 2007, 2014 and 2016) as well as Forceville (1994, 2008)’s frameworks on, respectively, novel and multimodal metaphors. Dictionaries, thesauri, corpus-assisted tools, as well as close reading/viewing will inform the delineation of source and target domains. The paper illustrates and concludes the cognitive power of multimodal creative choices in relation to (AFD) to integrate children’s past, present, and future experiences, while strengthening their sense of identity and belonging.
本文旨在探讨收养和寄养话语(AFD)，以揭示多模态小说隐喻的作用，以及由此产生的特别概念，在(再)处理(AF)叙事。它特别关注绘本《Speranza’s Sweater》(Pusey and Mello, 2018)，并将生活故事(一个被收养或寄养的孩子)的扩展概念隐喻为一件毛衣，以及一系列次要的相关隐喻。这些都是根据Romero和Soria(1997、2005、2007、2014和2016)以及Forceville(1994、2008)关于小说和多模态隐喻的框架进行分析的。词典、词典、语料库辅助工具以及仔细阅读/查看将为源域和目标域的描述提供信息。本文阐述并总结了与(AFD)相关的多模式创造性选择的认知能力，以整合儿童的过去，现在和未来经验，同时加强他们的认同感和归属感。

Esta es una introducción a la Estilística Cognitiva, definida de manera general como el estudio del estilo desde una perspectiva cognitiva. La estilística se ocupa no solo del análisis de las características lingüísticas internas de una proposición lingüística determinada o de un tramo de discurso, sino también de lo que se encuentra fuera del texto, es decir, el autor, el contexto sociocultural, el género, etc. Se basa en el supuesto principal de que la función y el significado de un texto pueden interpretarse a la luz de sus aspectos formales, comprometiéndose así en la descripción formal y su relación con una situación y un contexto cognitivo determinados.
