Lex­i­cal­iza­tion pat­terns in col­or nam­ing
The vol­ume presents six­teen chap­ters focused on lex­i­cal­iza­tion pat­terns used in col­or nam­ing in a vari­ety of lan­guages. Although pre­vi­ous stud­ies have dealt with cat­e­go­riza­tion and per­cep­tu­al salience of col­or terms, few stud­ies have been con­sis­tent­ly con­duct­ed in order to inves­ti­gate phono­log­i­cal, mor­pho­log­i­cal, syn­tac­tic, and seman­tic devices lan­guages use to form col­or terms.
The aim of this vol­ume is to approach col­or data from a rel­a­tivist and typo­log­i­cal per­spec­tive and to address some nov­el view­points in the research of col­or terms, such as: (a) the focus on lan­guage struc­ture per se in the study of lex­i­cal­iza­tion data; (b) inves­ti­ga­tion of inter- and intra-lan­guage struc­tur­al vari­a­tion; © cul­ture and lan­guage con­tact as reflect­ed in lan­guage struc­ture.
Top­ics of this book have a broad appeal to researchers work­ing in the fields of lin­guis­tics, anthro­pol­o­gy, soci­ol­o­gy, and psy­chol­o­gy.

Sto­ry­telling in the dig­i­tal world
Sto­ry­telling in the Dig­i­tal World explores new, emerg­ing nar­ra­tive prac­tices as they are enact­ed on dig­i­tal plat­forms such as Ama­zon, Face­book, Twit­ter, and YouTube. Con­trib­u­tors’ online ethno­gra­phies inves­ti­gate a wide range of themes includ­ing the nature of process­es of trans­for­ma­tion and recon­tex­tu­al­iza­tion of offline events into dig­i­tal nar­ra­tives; the effects of dig­i­tal anonymi­ty and pseu­do­nymi­ty on nar­ra­tive prac­tices; the strate­gies through which vir­tu­al com­mu­ni­ties dis­cur­sive­ly work togeth­er to solid­i­fy and nego­ti­ate their socio­cul­tur­al iden­ti­ties; the ten­sions between the affor­dances that char­ac­ter­ize dif­fer­ent online media and the com­mu­nica­tive needs of users; the struc­tures and modes in which vir­tu­al users con­struct and enact par­tic­i­pa­to­ry prac­tices in these envi­ron­ments; and the sig­nif­i­cance of dif­fer­ent spa­tiotem­po­ral dimen­sions in the encod­ing, shar­ing and appre­ci­a­tion of sto­ries. More gen­er­al­ly, the vol­ume engages with some of the the­o­ret­i­cal and method­olog­i­cal chal­lenges that the grow­ing pres­ence of dig­i­tal tech­nolo­gies and media pos­es to nar­ra­tive analy­sis.
