The article explores the concept of emotionality and compares it with the concept of “expressiveness”. It was found that emotionality is complex and it synthesizes qualitative psychological, literary and linguistic characteristics. It is concluded that it is expedient to use the concept of emotionally – expressive vocabulary (coloring) to express both the reason for the formation of emotion and the consequence that comes from it. Emphasis is placed on another important part of the emotional vocabulary – evaluative statements that have a certain illocutionary power, designed for a very specific perlocutionary effect, and evaluation is passed through the human emotional sphere of the psyche. Different ways of expressing emotional vocabulary are described, and the most emotional vocabulary is divided into five main groups: emotives – nominatives, emotives – associatives, emotives – expressives, occasional emotives, neutral emotives.In addition, the research focuses on exclamations and phraseology, as the most effective way to convey the full range of emotions (highlighted phrases that describe the state of despair, sadness, dissatisfaction, indignation; phraseological units that characterize joy). The role of different parts of speech is described and the cause-consequential connection with emotionality is indicated. The dominant role of synonyms and artistic paths in the transmission of a positive spectrum of emotions is reflected. The peculiarity of phraseological units, which are the semantic centers of macro- and microtext, is revealed and examples of their application for the translation of emotions and feelings from the English-language artistic discourse are given. Phonetic-orthographic features of emotional elements are processed and structured (repeated repetition of sounds in writing; distribution of sounds by hyphens, expression of phrasal stress by application of italics, replacement of font, underlining, use of a colon). The relationship between a part of the work and the author’s dominant ways of conveying emotions in the work of art is indicated.Key words: expression, phrasema, emotiologies, affectives, semantic basis, illocutionary force, perlocutionary effect, negative connotation, occasional. У статті досліджено концепт емоційності й зіставлено його з поняттям «експресивність». З’ясовано, що емотивність має комплексний характер і синтезує в собі якісні психологічні, літературні, лінгвістичні характеристики. Підсумовано, що доцільно застосовувати поняття емоційно-експресивна лексика (забарвлення) для вираження як причини формування емоції, так і наслідку, що виходить із неї. Наголошено на ще одній важливій частині в рамках емотивної лексики – оцінних висловлюваннях, які володіють певною іллокутивною силою, розраховані на досить конкретний перлокутивний ефект, а оцінка пропускається через людську емоційну сферу психіки. Схарактеризовано різні способи вираження емотивної лексики, а саму емотивну лексику поділено на п’ять основних груп: емотиви-номінативи, емотиви-соціативи, емотиви-експресиви, оказіональні емотиви, нейтральні емотиви.До того ж у науковому дослідженні акцентовано на вигуках і фразеологізмах як на найефектнішному спо-собі передачі всього спектру емоцій (виокремлено фраземи, які описують стан відчаю, смутку, незадоволення, обурення; фразеологічні одиниці, що характеризують радість). Описано роль різних частин мови й вказано на причино-наслідковий зв’язок з емотивністю. Зображено домінівну роль синонімів і художніх троп під час передачі позитивного спектру емоцій. Розкрито особливість фразеологізмів, котрі є семантичними основами, центральними елементами макро- й мікротексту, й наведено приклади їх застосування для трансляції емоцій і відчуття в англомовному художньому дискурсі. Опрацьовано й структуровано фонетико-орфографічні ознаки емоційних елементів (багаторазове повторення звуків на письмі; розподіл звуків дефісом, вираження фразового наголосу шляхом застосування курсиву, заміни шрифту, підкреслення, застосування трикрапки). Вказано на взаємозв’язок частини твору з домінівними способами передачі емоцій автором у художньому творі.Ключові слова: експресія, фразема, емотиологія, афективи, семантична основа, іллокутивна сила, перло-кутивний ефект, негативна конотація, оказіональний.

Psychoanalytic perspectives (such as the Kleinian/Bionian and Lacanian literature) have made significant contributions to the study of affect in organizations. While some have pointed out the affects involved in work tasks, most of this literature generally focuses on the affects linked to organizational life (such as learning, leadership, motivation, power, or change). The center of attention is not on affects associated with the work process itself. We draw from the French psychodynamic theory of Christophe Dejours—who is yet to be known in English language organization studies—to make the following contributions. First, we show the relationship between affect and working by discussing Dejours’ notions of affective suffering, the real of work, the significance of the body, and ‘ordinary sublimation’. Second, we advance critical research in organization studies by demonstrating the centrality of work in the affective life of the subject. Third, the article reinterprets Menzies’ well-known hospital case study to illustrate how Dejours’ theory extends existing psychoanalytical approaches, and especially to point to the significant role of the work collective in supporting workers to work well. We conclude by suggesting that if the centrality of work in the affective life of the subject is acknowledged, it follows that resistance strategies, and work collectives’ struggle for emancipation, should focus on reclaiming work.

The objective of this study was to measure the level of cruise tourists' satisfaction as well as the relationship between satisfaction, recommendation, return intention, and expenditure. Also, the impact of factors such as nationality, length of the visit, and age on the level of expenditure was measured. An empirical approach for data collection was followed and a total of 152 questionnaires were collected from cruise tourists visiting the capital city of Oman, Muscat, as cruise liners anchor at Sultan Qaboos Port. Results of the regression analysis supported the existence of a causal relationship between satisfaction with destination attributes, overall satisfaction, recommendation, return intention, and expenditure. It was found that the average expenditure varies according to age and length of the visit. Recommendations for policy makers were suggested on how to increase the role of cruise tourism in strengthening the economy.

It has taken many years for different styles of music to be utilised within Pentecostal churches as acceptable forms of worship. These shifts in musical sensibilities, which draw upon elements of pop, rock and hip hop, have allowed for a contemporisation of music that functions as worship within these settings, and although still debated within and across some denominations, there is a growing acceptance amongst Western churches of these styles. Whilst these developments have taken place over the past few decades, there is an ongoing resistance by Pentecostal churches to embrace Indigenous musical expressions of worship, which are usually treated as token recognitions of minority groups, and at worst, demonised as irredeemable musical forms. This article draws upon interview data with Christian-Māori leaders from New Zealand and focus group participants of a diaspora Māori church in southwest Sydney, Australia, who considered their views as Christian musicians and ministers. These perspectives seek to challenge the relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous relations within a church setting and create a more inclusive philosophy and practice towards being ‘one in Christ’ with the role of music as worship acting as a case study throughout. It also considers how Indigenous forms of worship impact cultural identity, where Christian worship drawing upon Māori language and music forms has led to deeper connections to congregants’ cultural backgrounds.

Organizational ambidexterity is widely recognized as necessary for the economic sustainability of firms operating in the financial sector. While the management literature has recognized several forms of ambidexterity, the relationship between them and their relative merits remain unclear. By studying a process of implementation of ambidextrous capabilities within a large Scandinavian financial firm, we explore the role of top-down reforms and bottom-up reactions in determining the development of sector-specific innovative capabilities. We find that blended ambidexterity follows naturally from the attempt to correct the tensions arising from harmonic ambidextrous blueprints. The resulting blended practice appears to be closely related to the reciprocal model of ambidexterity, which appears to be a necessity rather than a choice, for large firms attempting to develop innovative capabilities. Consequently, we suggest to re-interpret current taxonomies of ambidexterity not as alternative blueprints, but rather as stages in a long-term process of transition.

In this paper, the role of higher education in post-uprising Libya is analysed in terms of its relationship with transitional processes of democratization and civic development. It begins by contextualising the Libyan uprising within the optimism of the ‘Arab Spring’ transitions in the Middle East. Following this, the relationship between higher education and politics under the Qadhafi regime and in the immediate aftermath of its overthrow is discussed. A case-study of a programme designed to support Tripoli University in contributing towards democratisation will then be presented. The findings of the case-study will be reflected upon to offer a set of recommendations for international actors engaging in political and civic education in conflict-affected settings, in particular in the Middle East.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the adaptations that have been made to traditional courtyard houses (TCHs) in Baghdad, Iraq. The aim is to develop an understanding of various factors in the adaptation of these buildings to suit contemporary lifestyles, which will contribute to the wider field of building adaptability. Design/methodology/approach Empirical evidence was collected through case studies of 12 TCHs in the Al-Kadhimiya area of Baghdad, which involved a physical survey of buildings and semi-structured interviews with 24 occupants. Findings Case study analysis show that building adaptability involves both a change to physical spaces and also to lifestyles; with the latter being more likely when there are limitations in how much change can be made to the physical structure. Research limitations/implications The focus of this research is mainly on users’ adaptation of spaces and therefore does not consider the full range of stakeholders involved in the adaptation process. The findings also only apply to the cases considered and may not be applicable to other house types or locations. Originality/value Studies on building adaptability mostly focus on the ease of change to the building fabric, although the role of users is acknowledged. This study provides insights into the complexity and variety of changes that users can make, which are influenced by lifestyles and driven by the need for comfort. These insights are represented in an adaptation model, which can serve as a basis for further research.

This article explores the relationship between capital and education through the experiences of a British secondary school following a grading by the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services and Skills that placed the school into special measures, considering the underlying assumptions and inequalities highlighted and obfuscated by the special measures label. The formulaic and ritualistic manner in which operational and ideological methods of reconstruction were presented as the logical (and only) pathway towards improvement is examined in an effort to disentangle the purpose of the ‘means-to-an-end’ approach within prevailing hegemonic structures, requiring a revisit to contemporary positioning of Gramscian concepts of ideology through the work of Gandin. The decontextualisation of schools from their socio-economic environments is probed in order to expose the paradoxes and fluidity of resistant discourse. The ambiguities between a Catholic ethos, neo-liberal restructuring and the socio-economic context of the school and the greater demands to acquiesce to externally prescribed notions of normativity are considered as a process that conversely created apertures, newly formed sublayers and corrugations where transformation could take root. Unforeseen epiphanies and structures of dissent are identified and will enrich the narrative of existence and survival in a special measures school in an economically deprived northern town in the UK.

The trend for eco-linguistics, which has been dynamically developing in the English-language literature since the 1970s, proposes a change in the perception of the relationship between language, nature, and culture, in a sense making language a link which brings together nature and culture, rather than separating them as is traditional. This approach poses important questions: How do languages ​​work in the ecosystem created by the language environment of all users of a given language context? What relationships can they enter into? How should one perceive the development of multilingualism in such an ecological approach, in which not only does "strong" affect the "weak" but “weak” reciprocates? "Weak" has an important place in the language ecosystem, which risks serious changes due to excessive weakening of one of its components. This paper aims to examine the possible inspirations that eco-linguistics offers Foreign Language Teaching (FLT), highlighting the role of each language and sensitizing the reader to the relationships that arise between languages ​​and their users in a given environment. From this perspective Claire Kramsch (2008) postulates a change in the perception of the main function of the teacher from the "teacher of a code" to the "teacher of meaning", which has specific didactic consequences in how language activities are approached. Is the school classroom a place for activities which have their origin in the trend for eco-FLT?
