Abstract:

A mention of name in literature is almost always likely to recall the question Juliet posed to Romeo about his family name Montague in William Shakespeare´s Romeo and Juliet. In reading creative works we tend to identify characters basically by the names given to them. It is on this basic premise that some character analysis methods tend to define characters by taking recourse to their names and sometimes identifying them in metaphorical terms or as speaking names. Names play a very central and important role in any reading exercise and so would certainly the names given to characters be of i

Abstract:

This paper explores the possibility that Hemingway scholars are overlooking the development of Hemingway as a writer by concentrating too much on the autobiographical elements of his writing. I am not suggesting that scholars ignore the autobiographical aspects of the writing, but rather propose that scholars acknowledge and look for the development of Hemingway's craft of writing in his novels by comparing the early texts with his posthumous works. I have chosen to show this development by comparing A Farewell to Arms and The Garden of Eden, especially through his use of the females character

Em Lucíola, José de Alencar assume uma posição peculiar de autor real, na medida em que contrasta com o Sr. Paulo Silva, autor designado na ficção. Narrador de seus conflitos, o moço espelha um herói confessional, examinando o próprio passado em busca da imagem de uma mulher. Senhora GM é sua interlocutora. Lúcia se circunscreve como modelo, pessoa retratada, namorada e cortesã. Esta análise está mais interessada em como as coisas são ditas e menos no que é dito, de sorte que se dedica à investigação dos mecanismos da enunciação.

Abstract:

YHWH’s statement to Moses, אֶהְיֶה אֲשֶׁר אֶהְיֶה , has been much discussed by biblical scholars and theologians. For much of the last century this discussion related to matters of etymology or history of religion, or the precise grammar of the text. However, recently there has been renewed interest in understanding the statement in its present context as part of the book of Exodus, and in particular its role in the call of Moses. My thesis seeks to deepen understanding of the implications of this statement through a close reading of the dialogues between Moses and YHWH. My close reading of in

Abstract:

Las películas de Makoto Shinkai tienen como tema principal las relaciones humanas. Por ello, el desarrollo de sus personajes es elemental para fortalecer la trama y el mensaje que desea dar. Sus protagonistas tienen toda una construcción detrás de ellos que dan sentido a sus acciones, pensamientos y decisiones, incluso cuando existe un claro contraste entre ellos que es tanto físico como psicológico. Esta relación se hace cada vez más cercana con el avance de la historia hasta crear sentimientos afectivos el uno por el otro, pero este vínculo tiene una fecha límite la cual ellos deben enfrenta

Abstract:

Cette thèse jette la lumière sur la notion d'arbitraire linguistique qui, depuis les premières réflexions sur la nature du langage, ne cesse d'être, plus ou moins, un objet de débat: l'origine du langage est-elle humaine ou divine? Son statut est-il conventionnel ou naturel? La dénomination des choses est-elle fondée sur l'arbitraire humain ou sur sa raison? Par conséquent, le signe linguistique est-il arbitraire ou motivé? Ce débat s'étend depuis l'Antiquité jusqu'à nos jours, dans une proportion d'intensité variable en temps et en lieu. Mais dans tout cela, qu'entendons-nous au juste par arb

This study is focused on the words (nickname or name) commonly used by the female characters in virtual environment to address themselves, such as films, novels, comics, etc. This type of expression is difficult to found in the Chinese conversation. Hence, it is deemed more difficult for non-native students of the Japanese language to grasp the nuance between the special terms used to s

Most modern machine learning approaches to sequence labeling utilize word embeddings, learned representations of text, in which words with similar meanings have similar representations. Quite recently, contextualized word embeddings have garnered much attention because, unlike pretrained context- insensitive embeddings such as word2vec, they are abl
