Paradigms in the compositional practice of Irish singer-songwriters
2016
The singer-songwriter has emerged as a significant figure in contemporary Irish culture. Ireland’s monumental history in musical practice has cultivated some of the most internationally respected singersongwriters of recent decades. While much research has been devoted to the songs of Irish artists at large, little attention has been allocated to demystifying their songwriting praxis. The present work critically examines the relationship between the Irish singer-songwriter and wider mediated discourses surrounding their artistry. Independent of genre it interrogates the compositional practices of performing songwriters by way of phenomenological study. Specifically, the lived experience of …

Corpus Stylistics and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man: (De-)constructing the Spirit of the Soul
2019
Corpus Stylistics is an emerging field in the discipline of Linguistics which has become increasingly popular during the last decades: applying corpus methods and techniques to the stylistic analysis of literary texts seems to be a successful way of making linguistic evidence, style ornamentations, aesthetic choices, manners of expressions or deviations from language norms, more visible to the eyes of the traditional literary critic or, simply, the reader.

Los límites del empirismo: a propósito de Kant y Russell
1986
... This paper attemps to contrast Kant's view on the limits of empiricism with the posing of the problem in the empiricism of this century, as exemplified by Bertrand Russell's thought. The conflict is approached analyzing two problems: the epistemological nature of mathematics, on the one hand, and the theory of subjectivity, on the other hand, both considered in Kant and Russell. As regards mathematics, the epistemological possibilities of Kant's constructivism are contrasted with the difficulties, from the point of view of empiricism, of accepting Russell's platonic logicism. As regards the theory of subjectivity, the paper presents the alternative between transcendental subjectivity as…
