Olfaction and emotion: The quest for olfactory restoration in two speech communities     

Sally O. Hastings  Trudy Milburn 《Journal of International and Intercultural Communication》2019,12(2):190-207

ABSTRACT

Olfaction has been described as one of the least studied of the senses. This has certainly proven true in Communication. This project applies Ethnography of Communication and Cultural Discourse Analysis to examine the role that olfaction plays in the cultural meaning systems of two speech communities: residents surrounding the Gowanus Canal and bereaved parents. The cultural hub used to explore the cultural significance of olfaction in both speech communities is feeling. The analyses illustrate how emotions are tied to associated sensations and further become activated through radiants of dwelling, relating and acting. The analysis also shows how olfaction may serve to unify and separate members of a community. The significance of this research encourages stretching the boundaries of communication studies by examining the less studied physical senses and the boundaries of Cultural Discourse Analysis by providing distinctions that others can incorporate when examining feelings.  相似文献

Noise Levels in Hong Kong Primary Schools: Implications for classroom listening     

Ching Yee Choi 《International Journal of Disability, Development & Education》2005,52(4):345-360

Many researchers have stressed that the acoustic environment is crucial to the speech perception, academic performance, attention, and participation of students in classrooms. Classrooms in highly urbanised locations are especially vulnerable to noise, a major influence on the acoustic environment. The purpose of this investigation was to determine noise levels in one such urban environment, Hong Kong. The ambient noise level, and its relationship to the speech intensity levels of both teachers and students was surveyed in 47 primary school classrooms. Moreover, the presence of acoustical treatments for noise reduction and the use of classroom amplification systems were documented for each classroom. The survey found that the mean occupied noise level was 60.74 dB (A); the mean unamplified and amplified speech‐to‐noise ratios of teachers were 13.53 dB and 18.45 dB, respectively; while the mean unamplified speech‐to‐noise ratio for students was 4.13 dB. Most of the classrooms exhibited insufficient acoustical treatments to provide significant noise reduction. The listening environment in many Hong Kong primary schools was not favourable for optimal classroom learning. Recommendations for improving the acoustical environment in classrooms in highly urbanised locations such as Hong Kong are discussed.  相似文献

话语冲突与“心理空间”——《死者》中主人公康罗伊顿悟之心理动因探究     

薛海燕 《河西学院学报》2011,27(4):50-54,45

"顿悟"是爱尔兰作家詹姆斯·乔伊斯的名篇《死者》中的重要创作手法之一。运用法康尼尔(Fauconnier,G)认知语言学心理空间理论能有效挖掘人物顿悟之前的心理,从而进一步深化故事主题。在《死者》中,主人公康罗伊与三位女性之间的话语冲突使主要人物的心理空间发生了多次交错,促使康罗伊摈弃殖民地特权者身份,回归爱尔兰传统。康罗伊的精神复苏在深层次上象征着整个民族的新生。  相似文献
