Condizione: new. Drawing on amateur glossaries as well as scholarly dictionaries, this book explores the idiomatic use of toponyms, or place names, either tied to Barbados or connected to the islands colonial legacy, while chronicling its lexicographic tradition. By tracing their etymological origin and establishing their cultural relevance, the volume focuses on Barbadian toponymic idioms, namely Bajanyms, and their pivotal role in conveying collective memory and shaping national identity. When geographical names transcend their literal meanings and acquire figurative nuances, they carry historical significance, embody local folklore, and reflect societal values. Consequently, the cataloging of the idiomatic toponymic inventory of Barbadian English and Bajan offers insights into their uniqueness. Dedicated to Barbadophiles, this homage to Barbadianness is intended to preserve the speech communitys linguistic heritage, at risk of fading in the face of modernization and globalization.A fascinating insight into the history of Barbados through its toponyms, which tell their own story of the islands evolution, but which also need this style of careful analysis so that the uninitiated reader may avoid the linguistic pitfalls. Strongly recommended to all linguistic, cultural, and historical researchers as well as to undergraduate and graduate students. John Simpson, OBE, Editor of The Oxford English Dictionary, 2nd edition, and The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Proverbs Through an essentially lexicographic approach, this book examines Barbadian English and Bajan toponymic, i.e. place name based, idioms by exploring their historical roots, cultural significance and role in shaping national identity. By tracing their etymology, it highlights their importance in preserving the unique linguistic heritage of Barbados.

The authors are interested in how these phenomena affect the future of the democratic system and the general development of the European Union. The special focus is on populism as one of the most discussed political phenomena in recent years. The assumption is that the rise of populism in Europe is a reaction to the anomalies and consequences of globalisation as well as a symptom of the crisis of established politics. Furthermore, the spread of populist messages is related to the profound change the media space is facing, particularly with the crisis of traditional media. Populists utilise different media channels that often serve to spread disinformation. Strengthening European democracy requires improving institutional effectiveness, responsiveness and accountability toward the citizenry, as well as building a European identity. The book deals with recent developments in the political and media space in Europe, with special focus on populism as one of the most discussed political phenomena in recent years. This multifaceted phenomenon is thematised comprehensively, considering different relevant perspectives and points of view.
