The aim of our analysis about the grammatical particle wa of the Japanese Language is to prove from the pragmatic-discursive point of view that the wa is not only a particle that indicates informational quantity and quality,but also a particle that is lexicogrammatically represented, reflecting both a (pre-)supposition/assumption about the knowledge or information of interlocutors (i.e., the mental state in a narrow sense), and their intentionality or strategies used by those interlocutors in a given discourse situation (i.e., the mental state in a wide sense).

Nepal and Bhutan, two Shangri-las of South Asia, share similar geo-political features but substantially differ in terms of demographic size and ethno-political history. The Constitution of Nepal 2015 which was promulgated by the second Constituent Assembly formed in 2013 came up with its inclusive character as it secured reasonable space for the ethnic minorities and owned their political, economic and cultural concerns. On the contrary, Bhutan adopted a different course in terms of accommodating ethnic and minority aspirations, although the country has also chosen parliamentary democracy in a narrow sense since 2008. From constitutional point of view, Nepal’s move from a liberal to an inclusive constitution made strenuous effort to bring all sections of Nepali society on board but Bhutan’s shift from a royal decree to an exclusionary constitution consciously left a large section of minority behind by suppressing their legitimate claims for basic democratic rights. This article explores the inclusive and exclusionary characters of the current constitutions of these countries from ethnic perspective.

This chapter gives an overview of how Byzantines conceptualized “poetry.” It argues that from the Byzantine point of view, poetry only differs from prose in a very formal way, namely that it is written in verse. Both prose and poetry belonged to the category of logoi, the only label that was very frequently used, in contrast to the term “poetry,” which was reserved for the ancient poetry studied at schools. Many authors considered (and exploited) the difference between their own prose texts and poems as a primarily formal one. Nevertheless, poetry did have some functions that set it apart from prose, even if these features are for us less expected. The quality of “bound speech” gained a spiritual dimension, since verse was seen as a restrained form of discourse, also from a moral point of view. Finally, the chapter gives a brief overview of the social contexts for which (learned) poetry was the medium of choice: as an inscription, as paratext in a wide sense, as a piece of personal introspection, as invective, as summaries (often of a didactic nature), and as highly public ceremonial pieces.

This paper analyzes the relationship between virtual manufacturing (VM) and digital factory (DF), in order to distinguish the two concepts. Based on the thought of PLM (Product Lifecycle Management), compare with the definition of VM, the paper gives the definition of DF, and analyzes the category and system characteristics of DF from narrow and broad point of view. The structural relationship and operation mechanisms of VM, narrow sense DF and broad sense DF are analyzed from the perspective of functional integration. During the phase of system implementation, from the perspectives of key technologies, implementation contents, implementation characteristics and important objectives, the characteristics of the three modes of production are summarized, the conclusion of system implementation under the condition of existing technology is obtained, and the potential application of narrow sense DF is researched.

During World War II, images of mothers constituted one of the most striking—and lasting—additions to Soviet propaganda. The appearance of “Mother Russia” has been understood as a manifestation of the Soviet state's wartime renunciation of appeals to Marxism-Leninism and its embrace of nationalism. Yet “Mother Russia” (rodina-mat', more literally, the “motherland mother“) was an ambiguous national figure. The word rodina, from the verb rodit', to give birth, can mean birthplace both in the narrow sense of hometown and in the broad sense of “motherland,” and it suggests the centrality of the private and the local in wartime conceptions of public duty. Mothers functioned in Soviet propaganda both as national symbols and as the constantly reworked and reimagined nexus between home and nation, between love for the family and devotion to the state. From this point of view, the new prominence of mothers in wartime propaganda can be understood as part of what Jeffrey Brooks has identified as the “counter-narrative” of individual initiative and private motives, as opposed to party discipline, that dominated the centrally controlled press's coverage of the first years of the war.

In this paper, I introduce a novel view of fairness: I explain fair sport competition through the notion of successful competition. I begin by analysing successful competition. I propose that competitions can be successful, both internally and externally. Internally successful competition is connected to the internal purpose of competition and has two senses: narrow and wide. Competition was internally successful in the narrow sense if three criteria of ‘betterness’ – official result, ideally adjudicated result, and display of athletic skills – were congruous in that competition. Competition was internally successful in the wide sense if the three aforementioned criteria of betterness were congruous and the competition also embodied ‘sweet tension of uncertainty of outcome’. Externally successful competition is connected to the external purposes of competition. Financial gain is an example of an external purpose. I argue that competition was fair if it was internally successful in the narrow sense, that is, if the three criteria of betterness were congruous in the competition.

When we start out from the assumption that theories can never adequately represent an unknowable realm of stimulators of our senses, this implies the construction even of the objects themselves of scientific empirical theories, which is here taken to be wholly dependent on practically relevant explanatory purposes for the advancement of practical capacities only. This also means that explanatory empirical theories alone can be scientific empirical theories in a strict sense, whereas descriptive empirical theories, as implying the assumption of some fundamental substance-construct, may only be justified within science insofar as they fulfill an adequate service function of some required data acquisition. This article, being also based on the constructivist point of view that there is no independent object of knowledge at all, consists for a large part in a sketch of a sequence of object-constructs as resulting from different and successively more effective ways of making attempts at survival in the evolution of mankind and the development of its social practice. The object-construct of scientific empirical explanatory theories as the latest of them is here conceived as empirical practical quasi-action with the function of enabling new know-that for the improvement of practical capacities in various fields of our highly specified practice. As special kinds of empirical practical quasi-actions for a future fruitful construction of objects of scientific empirical explanatory theories are here proposed: process (in a narrow sense), origination of meaning, and origination of a practical action. It must be understood as a “political” decision when the author intends to develop an object-theory of scientific empirical studies of literature as that of originations of a kind of communicative cooperative practical actions.

This article discusses the Mora disspation process in Japanese language mainly exposed by looking at the mora in literature point of view. The object that being used is a novel called “Narcissu” by the Japanese Author, Tomo Kataoka. The purpose of writing this article is to describe the disipation in Mora in Japanese language written in the form of literature. The research method used in this research is descriptive method. In analyzing the data, the author use the reference theory based on Morphology byIori Isao. The use of theories help the author to get to the conclusion that in Japan’s daily conversation, the use of proper full mora in term of verb seldom been mention. The result of this studies show that the reason of the Mora dissipation in conversation is because of the implicitory in term of talking. In other words, it can be seen that Japanese language speaker often not using the proper word on their conversation mainly because there’s a mutual understandment in term of implicitory word that keep them talk with less word.

Starting from the point of view that language is a consequence of sociocultural usages, this paper intends to draw up and discuss some of the conventional values (or crystallizations) developed inside the bounderies of japanese culture which are considered renowned and recognized by their use and that determine and guide the argumentative mechanisms in japanese language.


The development of linguistics, a multidisciplinary approach to the coverage of linguistic phenomena have led to a change in the scientific paradigm – the discursive paradigm has come instead of text-centric one. In linguistics a philological discipline has been arised – discourse studies aimed at characterizing the speech communication of people in certain situations taking into account the unity of scientific approaches. The purpose of the article is to comprehend the author’s artistic discourse as a philosophical and humanitarian reality, to form a cognitive and pragmatic concept of artistic discourse. The polysemy of the term discourse makes it possible to use the concept of artistic discourse in two meanings – broad and narrow. Discourse1, or author's discourse, is a part of cultural space where semiotic units formed according to the laws of certain genres function, in which the author's knowledge, information, assessments, mentality as a representative of a certain sociocultural community are creatively and verbally reproduced and which have a pragmatic load. In a narrow sense discourse2 means a fragment of text (context). The cognitive aspect (knowledge, information, assessments, mentality in general) is realized in the plan of text – author, pragmatic – in the plane of text – reader, although we are aware that such a division is to some extent conditional. For effective analysis of artistic discourse in cognitive and pragmatic aspects we consider it`s necessary to enter into scientific circulation two abstract units – cognitema and pragmatema. Cognitema is a generalized unit in which a quantum of information about the world is realized (for example, thinking, color, mental state, etc.). Pragmatema is an abstract unit which has influence into the reader.

The concept odal can be regarded in a narrow sense, i.e. as the inherited landed property of a family. But here it is argued that odal should be viewed in a wide sense - as a mentality that is of great importance to the understanding of Late Iron Age society in Sweden. The article focuses on the material expressions which belonging to a family and possessing a farm could take in the individual farmstead in the Mälar Valley. The Viking Age is interpreted as a time period in which there was a need to make the odal visible. The acts of burying dead relatives on top of the graves of early ancestors, erecting runestones, and possibly also erecting mounds are regarded as ways of guarding, marking, and confirming the possession of the odal in the odal man's own eyes and in his neighbours' and consequently also the odal man's position in society.
