CANADIAN OXFORD DICTIONARY ‘a unique reference book for all Canadians’, Robert MacNeil, Time MagazineThe Canadian Oxford Dictionary was the runaway bestseller of 1998, spending over a year on the Globe and Mail's bestseller list and winning the Canadian Booksellers Association's Libris awards for Non-fiction Book of the Year and Specialty Book of the Year. The dictionary combines coverage of international English
SITUATEDNESS
1. The dependence of meaning (and/or identity) on the specifics of particular sociohistorical, geographical, and cultural contexts, social and power relations, and philosophical and ideological frameworks, within which the multiple perspectives of social actors are dynamically constructed, negotiated, and contested. Such approaches are often perceived by realists as radical OXFORD CLASSICAL DICTIONARY ‘a delight for anyone with any curiosity about the roots of our Western culture a browser's paradise, and I would think a researcher's quick rescuer’Arthur Miller, London Review of BooksOver 6,200 entriesFor almost half a century, The Oxford Classical Dictionary has been regarded as the unrivalled one-volume reference work on all aspects of the Graeco-Roman world. NECESSARY/CONTINGENT TRUTHS A necessary truth is one that could not have been otherwise. It would have been true under all circumstances. A contingent truth is one that is true, but could have been false. A necessary truth is one that must be true; a contingent truth is one that is true as it happens, or as things are, but that did not have to be true. In Leibniz's phrase, a necessary truth is true in all possible worlds.HUNGRY FORTIES
A period in the early 1840s when Britain experienced an economic depression, causing much misery among the poor. In 1839 there was a serious slump in trade, leading to a steep increase in unemployment, accompanied by a bad harvest. The bad harvests were repeated in the two following years and the sufferings of the people, in a rapidly increasing population, were made worse by the fact OXFORD DICTIONARY OF FAMILY NAMES IN BRITAIN AND IRELAND Over 45,000 entriesThis huge new dictionary is the ultimate reference work on family names of the UK, covering English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish, Cornish, and immigrant surnames. It includes every surname that currently has more than 100 bearers, and those that had more than 20 bearers in the 1881 census.Each entry contains lists of variant spellings of the name, an explanation of its originsREALITY-EFFECT
The small details of person, place, and action that while contributing little or nothing to the narrative, give the story its atmosphere, making it feel real. It does not add to the plot to know that the character James Bond wears Egyptian cotton shirts, but it clearly does add considerably to our understanding of him. By the same token, knowing that he buys his food from Fortnum and Mason HERZBERG'S TWO-FACTOR THEORY This theory suggests there are two sets of factors that impact upon an employee's feelings of satisfaction at work. The first set (hygiene factors) concerns the employee's need for fair treatment in compensation, supervision, and working conditions. If these are not met, employees feel dissatisfied. However, if managers devise ways of meeting these needs, it will still not lead to job RULE IN STRONG V BIRD A rule that operates to perfect an otherwise imperfect gift where the intended donee acquires the gift property by indirect means. The rule originated in the case of Strong v Bird (1874) LR 18 Eq 315, which was concerned not with a gift but with the extinguishment of a debt in circumstances where the deceased creditor had appointed his debtor as executor under his will. NEO-RACISM - OXFORD REFERENCE Étienne Balibar's term for the prevalent new modality of racism he calls ‘racism without race’, which emerged in the 1970s. Whereas racism used to be premised on the idea of race as biological heredity, now in the postcolonial era it tends to be focused on ‘cultural differences’.
