Qu'entend-on lorsqu'on parle d'un corbeau ou d'une dent-de-loup dans le langage technique de la serrurerie ? Et quel est l'objet du discours quand notre médecin emploie le terme langue géographique ? Un vin maigre est-il plus prisé qu'un vin gras ? Ces questions révèlent l'omniprésence des termes métaphoriques dans les langages techniques et scientifiques. Le rôle fondateur des métaphores dans les langues de spécialité est depuis quelques décennies un objet d'étude privilégié dans diverses disciplines, de la linguistique cognitive, à l'épistémologie, à la terminologie; cet ouvrage se propose de conjuguer ces diverses approches méthodologiques afin de proposer un modèle pluriel de la métaphore, expliquant les dynamiques cognitives et textuelles à l'oeuvre dans la création et la diffusion des métaphores terminologiques. Du langage de la couture à la terminologie de l'astrophysique, du vocabulaire de la dégustation du vin au langage de la finance, les apports de la linguistique de corpus sont mis au service de l'analyse synchronique (monolingue et multilingue), mais aussi de l'analyse diachronique des évolutions terminologiques dans les domaines socio-professionnels thématisés.

Ali Rosa Della Seconda Guerra Mondiale Le Ausiliarie Della RAF
Apprezzate per il loro lavoro durante la guerra e poi dimenticate le pilote degli ATA sono state riscoperte in questi ultimi anni grazie a libri e documentari a loro dedicati. In particolare nel 2012 le veterane ormai novantenni Fredys Sharland, Molly Rose, Joy Lofthouse e Mary Ellis sono state intervistate dalla BBC nell'ambito di una docu-fiction intitolata "Spitfire sisters". Questo libro e un piccolo omaggio a delle pioniere che hanno pilotato un aereo militare, quando ancora poche donne possedevano persino un brevetto di volo civile da trasporto e molte compagnie aeree ancora non accettavano piloti di sesso femminile.

Scientific Autobiography
A lyrical memoir by one of the major figures of postmodernist architecture; with drawings of architectural projects prepared especially for the book. This revealing memoir by Aldo Rossi (1937-1997), one of the most visible and controversial figures ever on the international architecture scene, intermingles discussions of Rossi's architectural projects-including the major literary and artistic influences on his work-with his personal history. Drawn from notebooks Rossi kept beginning in 1971, these ruminations and reflections range from his obsession with theater to his concept of architecture as ritual.

Alienation and Acceleration
Modern life is speeding-up, constantly. While the art of saving time reaches unprecedented heights through the introduction of ever-new technologies of communication and production, it nevertheless feels like we are running out of time. In all western societies, time scarcity is increasing and individuals report the impression of having to run faster and faster every year – not in order to get somewhere, but just to stay where they are.In this short book Hartmut Rosa outlines his theory of social acceleration and uses it to analyse the causes and consequences of the temporal processes that characterize modern societies. He shows that modern temporal structures are governed by the logic of an acceleration process that defines the essence of modernity. He also develops a critical theory of social acceleration, arguing that acceleration leads to severe forms of alienation from time and space, from things and actions and from self and others, thus constituting a key obstacle to the realization of a 'good life' in late-modern society.
