Yet the French have made lasting contributions to Texas history and culture that deserve to be widely known and appreciated. In this book, François Lagarde and thirteen other experts present original articles that explore the French presence and influence on Texas history, arts, education, religion, and business from the arrival of La Salle in 1685 to 2002. Each article covers an important figure or event in the France-Texas story. The historical articles thoroughly investigate early French colonists and explorers, the French pirates and privateers, the Bonapartists of Champ-d'Asile, the French at the Alamo, Dubois de Saligny and French recognition of the Republic of Texas, the nineteenth-century utopists of Icaria and Reunion, and the French Catholic missions. Other articles deal with French immigration in Texas, including the founding of Castroville, Cajuns in Texas, and the French economic presence in Texas today (the first such study ever published). The remaining articles look at painters Théodore and Marie Gentilz, sculptor Raoul Josset, French architecture in Texas, French travelers from Théodore Pavie to Simone de Beauvoir who have written on Texas, and the French heritage in Texas education. More than seventy color and black-and-white illustrations complement the text.Focus on American history series.French AmericansTexasHistoryFrench AmericansMigrationsFrench AmericansTexasIntellectual lifeTexasHistoryTexasCivilizationFrench AmericansHistory.French AmericansMigrations.French AmericansIntellectual life.976.4/00441Lagarde François1949-1524507MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777692203321The French in Texas3765387UNINA07185nam 2200817Ia 450 991114456410332120260415134437.09786612160189978128216018712821601849789027295057902729505010.1075/pbns.129(CKB)1000000000551259(OCoLC)427510440(CaPaEBR)ebrary10254981(SSID)ssj0000465881(PQKBManifestationID)11302541(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000465881(PQKBWorkID)10440163(PQKB)10880944(MiAaPQ)EBC622284(Au-PeEL)EBL622284(CaPaEBR)ebr10254981(CaONFJC)MIL216018(DE-B1597)720429(DE-B1597)9789027295057(EXLCZ)99100000000055125920040802d2004 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrBuilding coherence and cohesion task-oriented dialogue in English and Spanish /Maria Teresa Taboada1st ed.Amsterdam ;Philadelphia John Benjamins Pub.

These resources contribute to overall coherence and cohesion, which speakers create and maintain interactively as they build on each other's contributions. The study is cross-linguistic, drawing on parallel corpora of task-oriented dialogues between dyads of native speakers of English and Spanish. The framework of the investigation is the analysis of speech genres and their staging; the analysis shows that each stage in the dialogues exhibits different thematic, rhetorical, and cohesive relations. The main contributions of the book are: a corpus-based characterization of a spoken genre (task-oriented dialogue); the compilation of a body of analysis tools for generic analysis; application of English-based analyses to Spanish and comparison between the two languages; and a study of the characteristics of each generic stage in task-oriented dialogue.Pragmatics & beyond ;new ser. 129.English languageDiscourse analysisEnglish languageGrammar, ComparativeSpanishSpanish languageGrammar, ComparativeEnglishSpanish languageDiscourse analysisEnglish languageSpoken EnglishSpanish languageSpoken SpanishConversationEnglish languageDiscourse analysis.English languageGrammar, ComparativeSpanish.Spanish languageGrammar, ComparativeEnglish.Spanish languageDiscourse analysis.English languageSpoken English.Spanish languageSpoken Spanish.Conversation.420.1/41IM 3270rvkTaboada María Teresa1689211MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911144564103321Building coherence and cohesion4845446UNINA
