Example Markers at the Intersection of Grammaticalization and Lexicalization
2020
Givon’s words “today’s morphology is yesterday’s syntax” have been widely used to describe grammaticalization, a process of linguistic change which implies an increase in the grammatical status of ...
Towards a Science of the Self: Autism, Autobiography, and Animal Behavior in Temple Grandin’sAnimals in Translation
2019
AbstractThis paper argues that Temple Grandin’s work serves as an intervention into the very framework of ‘disability.’Animals in Translationsuggests that the minds of people living with autism are ‘wired differently’; yet, this difference, Grandin makes clear, is by no means always a disadvantage. As a scientist in animal studies and a consultant for animal behavior, Grandin claims that persons on the autism spectrum may be ideally suited for understanding the animal mind. Describing both autism and animal behavior through the discourse of neuroscience, she takes the analogy between persons with autism and animals one step further. Both animals, especially birds, and people on the autism s…
Edición crítica, problemas textuales y de autoría: métrica y ortología en Lope de Vega
2021
Through examples taken from comedies recently attributed to Lope de Vega, this article deals with certain problems that should be considered when studying or editing plays of doubtful authorship. The analysis focuses on methods traditionally used to resolve problematic attributions, such as the study of versification, orthoepy and syllable counting. The conclusion argues that all of these tools —as well as the landmark works by Morley and Bruerton or W. Poesse — still offer great surprises and challenges for researchers. Thus, the development of new methods, such as stylometry, should not impel us to dismiss the classic approaches. Quite the opposite: old and new methods inform one another.
Effectiveness of child protection practice models : a systematic review
2020
Background Attempts to improve child protection outcomes by implementing social work practice models embedded in a particular theory and practice approach, have increased internationally over the past decade. Objective To assess the evidence of the effectiveness of child protection practice models in improving outcomes for children and families. Participants and setting Children < 18 years and their families involved in child protection services. Methods A systematic review was conducted to synthesize evidence regarding the effectiveness of child protection practice models. Systematic searches across 10 electronic databases and grey literature were conducted to identify quasi-experimental s…
An analysis of recent research on venture capital networks
2019
Purpose – this paper examines recent trends in venture capital network research. Network analysis is a useful approach for analyzing inter-organizational networks, especially for venture capitalists, which are characterized by plenty of connections. Although important steps ahead have been made, several research questions are still unanswered. Research methodology – this brief review analyses deeply three papers which are representative of the novel scientific literature in this field. Scrutinizing these works, I identify their points of strength and weaknesses, in order to understand how to pave the way for further research. Findings – this paper shows that the study of network weak ties a…
Los inventarios <em>post mortem</em> de la Valencia medieval. Una fuente para el estudio del consumo doméstico y los niveles de vida
2017
Los inventarios post mortem de la Valencia bajomedieval apenas han sido sometidos a algunas cuestiones básicas sobre su naturaleza ¿Qué los distinguía de otras listas de bienes y cuál era su fundamentación legal? ¿Por qué se realizaban? ¿Qué bienes recogían y cuáles omitían? ¿Cuántos inventarios se conservan en la actualidad? ¿Qué sectores de la sociedad medieval los solicitaban? Las respuestas que proporciona este artículo hacen evidente la potencialidad de un uso seriado y cuantitativo del inventario valenciano para el estudio del consumo doméstico, una vía de análisis que permitiría medir con precisión cambios en los niveles de vida de la sociedad bajomedieval a un nivel muy difícil de l…
Les rencontres improbables dans "les années 68"
2009
Resume Dans cette vaste periode de contestation que constituent les annees 68, des rencontres improbables se produisent. Celles-ci s’inscrivent dans la longue histoire des intellectuels desireux d’aller au peuple et notamment vers les ouvriers. Mais elles s’accelerent dans un certain nombre de mobilisations du debut des annees 1960. En mai-juin 1968, a la faveur de la desectorisation de l’espace social, ces rencontres improbables connaissent trois formes exemplaires : autour des ouvriers s’agregent ainsi des etudiants, des techniciens et des cadres, des paysans enfin. Celles-ci se prolongent dans les annees suivantes, notamment lors de grands conflits, tels Lip ou le Larzac. Toutefois, ces …
Quine’s Fluted Fragment is Non-elementary
2016
We study the fluted fragment, a decidable fragment of first-order logic with an unbounded number of variables, originally identified by W.V. Quine. We show that the satisfiability problem for this fragment has non-elementary complexity, thus refuting an earlier published claim by W.C. Purdy that it is in NExpTime. More precisely, we consider, for all m greater than 1, the intersectionof the fluted fragment and the m-variable fragment of first-order logic. We show that this subfragment forces (m/2)-tuply exponentially large models, and that its satisfiability problem is (m/2)-NExpTime-hard. We round off by using a corrected version of Purdy’s construction to show that the m-variable fluted f…
Reflections on the Significance of Images in Genocide Studies: Some Methodological Considerations
2018
Social practices such as massacres, mass violence and the extermination of entire populations are not a historical novelty. Indeed, when Raphael Lemkin coined the term genocide in 1944 he was but giving a new name to an old crime.1 Such phenomena have been witnessed by humanity since Ancient times and historians, as well as artists and writers, have utilized every tool at their disposal to find ways to depict them and impress upon their audience the impact they had. Insofar as these are extreme phenomena that challenge the very notion of our humanity, such events inevitably test as well the limits of representation. Eyewitness accounts, historical narrations, philosophical observations, and…
Discours de professionnels et discours pour professionnels: le travail collaboratif au service de l’enseignement de l’anglais médical
2017
D’un point de vue synchronique, le discours effectif tenu en milieu professionnel, fonde sur des besoins pragmatiques immediats, entre parfois en conflit avec le discours specialise du domaine etudie par les enseignants-chercheurs. Ainsi, ceux-ci ont-ils tout interet a consulter les acteurs du domaine afin de cerner leurs besoins langagiers dans le cadre de projets collaboratifs. Cet article pose le probleme des ajustements pertinents entre discours de professionnels et discours pour (futurs) professionnels dans la mise en place de quatre projets a visee pedagogique : des seances d’aide au raisonnement clinique en binome, un projet de recherche-action sur la FASP, un projet europeen de cert…
