Der gebürtige Südtiroler Jakob Philipp Fallmerayer (1790–1861) gilt als bedeutender Orientalist. Der Kleinbauernsohn (geboren in Tschötsch bei Brixen) war ein für seine Zeit liberaler Denker, der in München und Frankfurt tätig war, und noch heute als Gelehrter bekannt ist. Sein maßgebliches Werk "Fragmente aus dem Orient", 1845 erstmals erschienen, machte ihn weithin berühmt und war lange Zeit vergriffen. In ihm wird Fallmerayer als Mensch und als Wissenschaftler fassbar.

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?”.

Many of the animals we encounter in everyday life, from the creatures in our fields to those in our fantasies, have remained the same since medieval times - but the words we use, and the ways we describe them, have often changed beyond recognition.

Our names are so mundane that we barely notice them. Yet each contains countless stories of tradition and belonging - be that a legacy of colonialism or persecution, the desire to fit in, or the complex cultural inheritance from one's parents. In What's in a Name?, Sheela Banerjee unravels the personal histories of friends and family through their names. And while tracing their heritage across centuries and continents - from west London to British India, and from 1960s Jamaica to pre-Revolutionary Russia - Sheela also tells the story of twentieth-century immigration to the UK.

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.

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.

„W drogę!!!” to kolejny po „Jeść!!!” bogato ilustrowany, tematyczny leksykon profesora Jerzego Bralczyka. Tym razem przedmiotem rozważań autora są słowa związane z podróżowaniem, drogą, wędrowaniem. Każde z haseł to osobny, pełen humoru i imponującej erudycji felieton. Profesor Bralczyk pisze o pochodzeniu wybranych przez siebie słów, ich zmieniających się przez lata znaczeniach, zaskakujących kontekstach w jakich bywają używane i skojarzeniach jakie budzą. Ten słownik wciąga jak pasjonująca powieść.

Wyjątkowy leksykon w którym znany i lubiany językoznawca, prof. Jerzy Bralczyk, omówił sto osiemdziesiąt jeden „smacznych słów”. Są to w większości nazwy apetycznie brzmiących potraw, pozostałe służą jedzeniu lub się z nim kojarzą. Nie jest to jednak przewodnik kulinarny sensu stricto, ponieważ autor przede wszystkim delektuje się nie samym smakiem jedzenia, lecz słowami, ich brzmieniem, urodą i funkcją.

How do new words enter a language, and what is the relationship between that strange dialect called Hiberno-English and its parent language? "Craic Baby" picks up exactly where "Motherfoclóir" left off and explores the very new and very old parts of the Irish language from a personal perspective.
