New Perspectives in English and American Studies. Volume One: Literature contains a selection of papers delivered at 14th International Conference on English and American Literature and Language, an international event organized every three years by the Institute of English Studies at the Jagiellonian University in Krak�w, Poland. The editors divided the content into five broad sections reflecting the scope of academic reflection, the breadth of cultural material and the depth of its analysis. The articles in the volume revolve around the topics of literary and cultural studies and their diversity mirrors the broad spectrum of the thematic panels of the conference. These included, among others, Medievalism in Literature, James Joyce Studies, The Contemporary Historical Novel and Multimodality. Aside from these thematic sessions, a number of general sessions dedicated to a wide spectrum of topics pertinent to English and American studies was held - in particular, the issues of the individual's perspective upon collective history, regional myths as well as the pivotal new historical awareness.

This book addresses underexplored areas within Cognitive Linguistics, gathering contributions that align with the application fields outlined in the ACL series introduction. The first section features foundational papers by established scholars, addressing ongoing issues in the discipline and introducing themes for the subsequent sections. The following sections predominantly showcase research by emerging scholars, who demonstrate various contextualization methods. Their work often leads to theoretical advancements or expands the scope of applications, including interdisciplinary approaches to fields like theology and metaphysics. Many papers exemplify the empirical turn in Cognitive Linguistics, illustrating how applying theory to new data with innovative methodologies can refine or modify theoretical frameworks. This book is pertinent for students and academics in (applied) linguistics, particularly those focused on language acquisition, pedagogy, intercultural communication, literary and translation studies, as well as related disciplines.
