Come sono cambiati i media, con quali meccanismi e quali stratagemmi, nell'epoca che chiamiamo "Era della Comunicazione"? Umberto Eco osserva la stampa, la televisione, internet, interrogandosi sui linguaggi dei media, le loro strategie di manipolazione, le loro reciproche influenze, in un’ottica che vede già i vari media come sistema integrato.

Story0
Sem a linguagem não seríamos os humanos que somos. Assim, entrar nesse complexo universo é fascinante. Este audiolivro trata tanto de questões mais gerais, como “Por que falamos?”, “Como nascem as palavras?”, até das mais específicas, como “Nossa língua é machista porque usamos o masculino quando nos referimos a um conjunto de pessoas de ambos os sexos?”, “Só existe a palavra "saudade"em português mesmo? E isso quer dizer que os falantes de outras línguas não lidam com esse sentimento?”.

Fünf herrliche freie Wochen wollen sie gemeinsam verbringen, Kurt und seine Prinzessin, Lydia. Sie fahren nach Schweden, suchen sich ein einsames Plätzchen - Schloss Gripsholm. Mit Sonne, Wald, Unterkunft im Seitentrakt des Schlosses, dem See vor der Tür, und nichts, aber auch gar nichts, was sie noch an Berlin erinnern könnte. Als Karlchen, Kurts bester Freund, sich meldet, ob er nicht auch für ein paar Tage bei ihnen unterkommen könnte, da überlegen sie erst - und stimmen dann zu.

Story0
From television shows to the manosphere, and from alt-right communities to fatherhood forums, debates about masculinity have come to dominate the media landscape. This growing cultural tension around masculinities has been discussed and analyzed both for general audiences and in burgeoning academic scholarship. What has been typically overlooked, however, is the role that language plays in these mediated performances of masculinity. In Language and Mediated Masculinities, Robert Lawson draws on data to explore language and masculinities across a range of media contexts.

En el lenguaje actual de las mujeres nombrar es poder, por eso esta obra propone palabras y situaciones cercanas a las mujeres, pero jamás exclusivas porque, como el lenguaje, este es un libro plural, cualquier persona interesada en el debate de por qué y cómo se expresan, es bienvenida a estas páginas. La autora se ocupa fundamentalmente de palabras, pero también de anécdotas, de casos reales, recuerdos, entrevistas, reflexiones, datos, estadísticas, referentes históricos y actuales; lugares, instituciones, consignas, canciones, lemas… pues cuando se trata de palabras todo suma.

Leksykon „Do domu!!!”, autorstwa profesora Jerzego Bralczyka, to kolejny po „Jeść!!!” i „W drogę!!!” przewodnik po słowach i ich znaczeniach. Znany i lubiany językoznawca zaprasza do domu na niezwykle pouczający i zarazem dowcipny spacer po pomieszczeniach, okraszony wieloma powiedzonkami i cytatami z klasyki polskiej literatury. Czytelnicy zwiedzą salon, kuchnię i jadalnię, ale też alkowę i buduar, zajrzą do spiżarni i lodówki, ocenią, co jest bardziej wygodne: kanapa, tapczan czy wersalka, będą podziwiać żyrandole i etażerki, a na koniec wyjdą na balkon, a może taras lub werandę – z pewnością jednak nie będą się snuli z kąta w kąt.

"Appartengo a quella parte dell'umanità che passa gran parte delle sue ore di veglia in un mondo fatto di righe orizzontali: un mondo che può essere molto ricco, magari ancor più ricco di quello non scritto, ma che comunque richiede un aggiustamento speciale per situarsi al suo interno. Quando mi stacco dal mondo scritto per ritrovare il mio posto nell'altro, in quello che usiamo chiamare il mondo, fatto di tre dimensioni, cinque sensi, popolato da miliardi di nostri simili, questo equivale per me ogni volta a ripetere il trauma della nascita."

Marco Balzano racconta la storia delle parole, dai Sumeri allo smartphone. Tra racconti, aneddoti e curiosità, ripercorriamo la storia più antica di tutte nei cambiamenti che hanno investito la società e la nostra comunicazione. Le parole: le pronunciamo, le ascoltiamo, le scriviamo e le leggiamo. Ma cosa sappiamo davvero di loro? Passando dalla pietra allo schermo, nel corso dei secoli, le parole sono state le armi dei potenti e il vessillo dei ribelli, hanno portato disgrazia e fortuna, nascosto segreti e rivelato verità, hanno avuto il potere di uccidere e di fare innamorare.

“Los niños que terminen pueden ir al recreo”, dice la maestra. Julia se queda sentada en su pupitre hasta que le explican que con “niños” la maestra se refiere también a las niñas. Más tarde, en gimnasia, el profesor dice: “Los niños que quieran formar parte del equipo de fútbol que levanten la mano”. Julia alza la mano, pero el profesor, incómodo, le dice que se refería solo a los niños. Julia está estupefacta; no entiende nada. Como la niña de esta anécdota, todas las mujeres tienen que aprender a deducir desde pequeñas cuándo están incluidas y cuándo no en el masculino genérico.
