Vocabulary of Peculiar Vernacular Bengali Words
"Vocabulary of Peculiar Vernacular Bengali Words" is an essential philological resource compiled by the scholar F. E. Pargiter. This volume serves as a specialized lexicon dedicated to the nuanced and often overlooked vernacular expressions of the Bengali language. Moving beyond standard dictionary definitions, the work focuses on peculiar words-those regionalisms, colloquialisms, and unique linguistic constructs that characterize the spoken tongue of the early 20th century. The collection is meticulously organized to assist scholars, linguists, and students of South Asian languages in understanding the depth and diversity of Bengali speech. Pargiter's expertise in Indian history and culture provides a solid foundation for this linguistic study, making it a valuable tool for those interested in the evolution of regional dialects and the preservation of vernacular traditions. By documenting these specific terms, "Vocabulary of Peculiar Vernacular Bengali Words" offers a window into the cultural and social life of the era, captured through its unique vocabulary. Whether for academic research or a deep interest in the linguistic heritage of South Asia, this work remains a significant contribution to the field of Indic studies.

Stylistic Approaches to Global Speculative Fiction
Narratology, Multimodality, and TranslationThis edited book engages with key concerns in contemporary stylistics, including mind style, text-worlds, deixis, metaphor, immersion, and readerly effects, while also exploring intersections with narratology, translation studies, and multimodality. Moving beyond Anglo-American canons, it brings together scholars from across the globe to examine speculative fiction within diverse cultural contexts, genres, languages, and media. Adopting a broadly inclusive understanding of the term speculative fiction as encompassing narrative modes that depart from consensus reality, the volume shifts the emphasis from predominantly thematic approaches towards the linguistic artistry of such altered worlds and minds, while remaining attentive to ideological tensions embedded within such stories. Interest in speculative fiction, its narrative strategies, its movement across languages and cultures, and the stylistic choices that shape readerly experience, has grown considerably across disciplines such as stylistics, narratology, translation studies, telecinematic and media studies, literary criticism, and genre theory. This book offers a comprehensive resource for academics working within these and related fields.
