Unlock a transformative perspective on peace and reconciliation with Nature and Time, Volume II: Paths to Justice and Transformation. In this compelling work, Baek Dong In invites the reader to reimagine the intricate interplay between nature, time, and history, transcending traditional boundaries to offer fresh insights into unity on the Korean Peninsula. Drawing from the profound ideas of philosophers like Heidegger, Kant, and Nietzsche, this book challenges the notion of Korea as a static entity mired in past conflicts. Instead, it portrays the peninsula as a dynamic, evolving space shaped by diverse historical, cultural, and ideological currents. By weaving together theology, philosophy, and socio-political analysis, Baek reveals how the rhythms of nature and the cycles of time can illuminate new paths toward reconciliation. This isn't just a theoretical exploration; it's a call to action. Nature and Time, Volume II encourages readers to engage deeply with the forces that shape the world, offering a holistic approach to healing divisions and fostering peace—not only in Korea but wherever conflict persists. Join this enlightening journey and discover how the convergence of nature and time can inspire justice and transformation in the shared human experience.
Times of History, Times of Nature
As climate change becomes an increasingly important part of public discourse, the relationship between time in nature and history is changing. Nature can no longer be considered a slow and immobile background to human history, and the future can no longer be viewed as open and detached from the past. Times of History, Times of Nature engages with this historical shift in temporal sensibilities through a combination of detailed case studies and synthesizing efforts. Focusing on the history of knowledge, media theory, and environmental humanities, this volume explores the rich and nuanced notions of time and temporality that have emerged in response to climate change.
Handbook of Quantifiers in Natural Language: Volume II
This work presents the structure, distribution and semantic interpretation of quantificational expressions in languages from diverse language families and typological profiles. The current volume pays special attention to underrepresented languages of different status and endangerment level. Languages covered include American and Russian Sign Languages, and sixteen spoken languages from Africa, Australia, Papua, the Americas, and different parts of Asia. The articles respond to a questionnaire the editors constructed to enable detailed crosslinguistic comparison of numerous features. They offer comparable information on semantic classes of quantifiers (generalized existential, generalized universal, proportional, partitive), syntactically complex quantifiers (intensive modification, Boolean compounds, exception phrases, etc.), and several more specific issues such as quantifier scope ambiguities, floating quantifiers, and binary (type 2) quantifiers. The book is intended for semanticists, logicians interested in quantification in natural language, and general linguists as articles are meant to be descriptive and theory independent. The book continues and expands the coverage of the Handbook of Quantifiers in Natural Language (2012) by the same editors, and extends the earlier work in Matthewson (2008), Gil et al. (2013) and Bach et al (1995).
