Metadiscourse in Persuasive Writing
1993
Metadiscourse refers to writers' discourse about their discourse—their directions for how readers should read, react to, and evaluate what they have written about the subject matter. In this study the authors divided metadiscourse into textual metadiscourse (text markers and interpretive markers) and interpersonal metadiscourse (hedges, certainty markers, attributors, attitude markers, and commentary). The purpose was to investigate cultural and gender variations in the use of metadiscourse in the United States and Finland by asking whether U.S. and Finnish writers use the same amounts and types and whether gender makes any difference. The analyses revealed that students in both countries …
Rozan and Matyssek: Are they really that different?
2005
Cet article porte sur la technique de prise de notes lors de l’interpretation consecutive tout en abordant les objectifs du cours de prise de notes, qui ne se limite pas simplement a faire connaitre des symboles et des abreviations. Cette discussion est suivie d’une presentation et d'une comparaison des systemes de prise de notes de Rozan (1956) et de Matyssek (1989) et de leurs principes generaux, afin de demontrer que ces deux ecoles « classiques » ont nombre de points communs bien qu'elles soient frequemment considerees comme etant tres differentes.
El diminutivo en el español de Santo Domingo
2016
Esta investigación analiza el uso del sufijo diminutivo en un corpus oral de jóvenes de la República Dominicana. El material procede de la transcripción de veinte entrevistas orales realizadas en los años noventa en Santo Domingo. En este estudio se realiza un análisis de las ocurrencias documentadas, su morfología, sus preferencias en cuanto a la selección de las clases de palabras que se toman como base para la formación de diminutivos, sus posibles valores semánticos y comunicativos, y, por último, se determina la frecuencia de uso del diminutivo en función del sexo de los hablantes. The aim of this research is to analyse the use of the diminutive suffix in an oral corpus of young people…
The magic of patriarchal oppression in Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell’s From Hell
2017
ABSTRACTIn From Hell, Alan Moore establishes systemic patriarchal sexual violence against the backdrop of Victorian London. While rape and other acts of physical repression are easily linked to the notion of sexual violence, Moore’s treatment is concentrated on the society as a whole. His anti-hero, physician Sir William Gull, justifies the serial murders and dissection rituals as a necessary continuation of Victorian inequality and as a symbolic manifestation of patriarchy’s counterattack. Linking ancient religion and mythology to a thousand years of British history, the sexual violence in From Hell is cast in the frame of a successful victory of patriarchy over matriarchy. Alan Moore’s pa…
“ArgumenteHin, ArgumenteHer.” Regularity and Idiomaticity in GermanN Hin,N Her
2017
This paper seeks to find the best linguistic analysis of the German semispecified, productive patternN hin, N her(for example,Krieg hin, Krieg her, es muss eine gute Show werden‘War or no war, it must be a good show’). The basic question is whether the properties ofN hin, N hercan be accounted for in a rule-based approach or whether they are to be regarded as idiosyncratic properties of this construction. One of the characteristic features ofN hin, N heris the identity of the nouns. This raises the question of whether or notN hin, N heris an instance of syntactic reduplication. It is shown that rule-based copying accounts fail when they are applied to the case ofN hin, N her. The paper argu…
Lotman’s semiotic theory of culture or Laclau’s political ontology?
2018
AbstractThe present article concentrates on the main discrepancies that should arise in the discussion between Lotman’s semiotics of culture and Laclau’s discursive theory of hegemony. Some significant – but still abstract – commonalities conceal fundamental disagreements which I would group around four topics. Firstly, Lotman’s semiotic method is at odds with Laclau’s ontological way of thinking. Secondly, although both Lotman and Laclau subscribe to the openness of signification, it is impossible to incorporate their accounts of this openness without loose ends. In order to substantiate this claim, I examine Lotman’s concept of “boundary” and Laclau’s concept of the “limit.” Thirdly, we s…
Primera persona del plural en los juicios orales. Valor representativo y estrategia atenuante
2018
El objetivo de este artículo es doble, pues nos proponemos estudiar los valores que puede desarrollar la primera persona del plural en los juicios orales y, en relación con ello, examinar si es posible identificar usos atenuantes asociados a este mecanismo referencial. Tras analizar nuestro corpus siguiendo una metodología cualitativa y cuantitativa, hemos podido observar que el uso de la primera persona del plural en este género no solo se debe al carácter representativo del sistema legal español o a las imposiciones de la tradición discursiva. Frecuentemente, el uso de la primera persona del plural (especialmente el plural de modestia y el plural sociativo) codifica un valor atenuante ori…
Tressage de sensation et hypersensibilité dans la poésie keatsienne
2020
La synesthesie, phenomene neurologique aujourd’hui reconnu, suscite depuis plusieurs annees un regain d’interet dans le monde scientifique comme le confirme la parution, en 2011, de l’article d’Herve-Pierre Lambert « La synesthesie. Vues de l’interieur », dans lequel l’auteur repertorie les evolutions historiques de l’etude du concept. En neuropsychologie, la synesthesie est un trouble de la perception sensorielle qui produit des associations previsibles, mais involontaires, entre differents ...
Korpusonomastinen tutkimus slanginimistä Hesa ja Stadi digitaalisissa diskursseissa
2019
Artikkelissamme selvitämme Helsinkiä tarkoittavien slanginimien, Hesan ja Stadin, käyttöä uudentyyppisen aineiston ja menetelmän avulla. Aiemmissa näitä nimiä koskevissa tutkimuksissa lähtökohta on ollut kvalitatiivinen, mutta tässä tutkimuksessa lähdemme liikkeelle laajasta digitaalisesta aineistosta ja tilastollisista menetelmistä. Tutkimuksemme on uusi avaus nimistöntutkimuksessa, ja nimitämme sitä korpusavusteiseksi nimistöntutkimukseksi, lyhyemmin korpusonomastiikaksi.
 Aineistonamme on laaja Suomi24-keskustelufoorumista muodostettu ja Kielipankista saatava Suomi24-korpus, josta olemme hakeneet Hesa- ja Stadi-nimet. Tutkimus toteutetaan korpusavusteisena diskurssintutkimuksena. Mo…
