Axiology of Subject of Declarative-Publicistic Poetry (First Collection of Soviet Kabardian Poets “First Step”)

The problem of the axiology of the subject of declarative-publicistic poetry is considered in the article. The concepts of “publicistic poetry”, “declarative-publicistic poetry”, “propaganda poetry” are commented on. On the basis of a number of works devoted to the image of the “new woman”, which was actual in the proletarian poetry of the 1920s and 1930s, the elements defining the axiology of the subject are revealed. The collection of Soviet Kabardian poetry “First step” is researched. The purpose of the article is to reveal the nuances of value, which in the national “variants” of Soviet literature supplemented the canons of expression of a typical subject that have developed in Russian propaganda poetry. Attention is paid to the semantic content of the poetic “we”, the spatial and temporal aspects of the representation of the poetic subject, the nature of the relationship of the poetic statement subject to the main character. The axiological subtext of the details of clothing is demonstrated in the context of the opposition of two temporal plans, which is relevant for agitation poetry. It is proved that the representation of the subject of agitation poetry at the junction of two time plans is for the authors of “The First Step” the most functional aspect of his axiology. The relevance of the study is determined in the light of the problem of intercultural interaction, the perception by a particular culture of ways of expressiveness that are uncharacteristic for it, the formation of an unusual subject of poetic thinking.

Subjects in Austronesian

In LFG, grammatical functions are primitives of the theory and treated as both fundamental and universal. However, there is a long standing debate in the wider literature as to whether grammatical functions should be considered universal or language specific/construction-specific notions. Western Austronesian languages have played a large role in this debate on account of their unusual verbal morphology and the split in typical subject properties between the actor semantic role and the argument privileged by the verbal morphology. In this chapter, Hemmings addresses the debate in relation to empirical data from the Kelabit language of Northern Sarawak. She argues that the Kelabit data provides a number of arguments for treating the privileged argument as subject, and the actor as an object in non-actor voice constructions. This has important implications for the treatment of subjects crosslinguistically, Western Austronesian verbal morphology and linking theories.

Visually Perceiving the Intentions of Others

I argue that we sometimes visually perceive the intentions of others. Just as we can see something as blue or as moving to the left, so too can we see someone as intending to evade detection or as aiming to traverse a physical obstacle. I consider the typical subject presented with the Heider and Simmel movie, a widely studied ‘animacy’ stimulus, and I argue that this subject mentally attributes proximal intentions to some of the objects in the movie. I further argue that these attributions are unrevisable in a certain sense and that this result can be used to as part of an argument that these attributions are not post-perceptual thoughts. Finally, I suggest that if these attributions are visual experiences, and more particularly visual illusions, their unrevisability can be satisfyingly explained, by appealing to the mechanisms which underlie visual illusions more generally.

Expressing perception in parallel ways

This chapter compares Pseudo-relatives (‘PRs’), a construction found in most Romance languages, with ‘Subject-wieclauses’ (‘SWs’), a German construction in which the subject of an embedded wie-clause precedes the complementizer wie (‘how’; e.g. Ich sah Maria, wie sie sang, lit. “I saw Mary, how she sung”, i.e. ‘I saw Mary singing’). We show that both constructions mainly occur with perception verbs, and that they have a very similar syntactic behaviour; e.g., they can be coordinated with adjectival or prepositional small clauses and have anaphoric tense. Furthermore, they both have a clausal nature but can modify a DP. We thus propose to extend Casalicchio’s (2016) analysis of PRs to SWs: they are Small Clauses (i.e., they have a typical subject-predicate configuration but no temporal independence) and they project a ForceP that hosts both the subject of the SW and the complementizer wie.

The link between blindness onset and audiospatial processing: testing audiomotor cues in acoustic virtual reality

Acoustic virtual reality was used to develop a platform that induces an alteration of the audiomotor coordination. This platform was used on typical subject and early blind participants and the comparison exposed higher sensitivity to audiomotor coordination alterations in early blind people compared to the typical population.

Identification of Factors Affecting the Employability of Information Technology Graduates

Graduate employability has been a typical subject among analysts, governments and advanced education frameworks around the globe uniquely in Sri Lanka but also in the world. In any case, while there is a ton of data and various models that advise on graduate employability, Specially what are the weak areas in the current education framework in universities (State and non state) the system change necessarily according to the industry requirements has been constrained exact research around there. Besides, most employability considers have been led in the Sri Lanka and different pieces of the world, In spite of Information Technology (IT) being one of the most looked for after capability by Sri Lankans, regardless it stays indistinct with respect to why numerous IT graduates battle to verify occupations after graduation.

An Overstory for Our Time

Care is the intimate and necessary labor required to sustain those who are dependent, but it is also about acting in ways that sustain other species and the lives of strangers distant in time and space. The COVID-19 pandemic shines a spotlight on the vulnerabilities and gaps in global care networks. It creates a crisis of care on multiple levels—the immediate, the dispersed, and the systemic—and it is exceedingly difficult to keep them all in focus. Although Richard Powers’s Pulitzer Prize–winning novel, The Overstory (2018), is not about illness or pandemic, it can illuminate varied scales of care at the level of form, by moving from individual stories that are the typical subject of literary realism to a grand vision of the webbed planetary systems—the environment, the internet, the global economy—in which they are enmeshed. This essay argues that, read through the lens of pandemic, the overstory of Powers’s novel is the networks of interdependency that have put the world in grave danger and that gesture to an uncertain future.

La poètica de la mort en la poesia catalana dels segles XVII i XVIII

Resum: L’objectiu d’aquest estudi és proposar una visió sobre el tòpic de la mort en la poesia catalana pels segles XVII i XVIII. El punt central és la projecció pública de les composicions poètiques, tot apropant-nos a la literatura des d’un punt de vista cultural per presentar certs aspectes d’un tema clau en l’art barroc: el final de la vida. La primera part del text introdueix dos dels escriptors del barroc català, Francesc Fontanella i Agustí Eura. La segona secció recerca l’ús de la poesia catalana en les exèquies reials al voltant de la figura del monarca hispànic Carles II. Un cop presentades públicament les poesies en 1701, les edicions impreses són les que ens permeten una lectura contemporània. Publicacions d’altres gèneres poètics són la darrera part de l’article. Els Desenganys de l’Apocalipsi és una coneguda obra barrejant poesia i imatges amb una vessant didàctica per explicar el purgatori, l’infern, la glòria i el paradís als fidels lectors. Paraules clau: mort, poesia, barroc, exèquies Abstract: The aim of this study is a global vision about the topic of death in Catalan poetry throughout the 17th and 18th centuries. Focusing on the public use of poetical compositions, we want to approach literature from a cultural point of view in order to present some aspects about a typical subject in baroque art: the end of life. The first part of the text introduces two main Catalan baroque writers, Francesc Fontanella and Agustí Eura. Moving to the second section, the paper researches the use of poetry in royal obsequies around the figure of the Spanish monarch Charles the Second. After the public presentation of the texts in 1701, the printed publication of them is how we can still read them. The printed copies for other kind of poetry creations is the last part of this article. Desenganys de l’Apocalipsi is a well-known text mixing poetry and images with a didactical purpose: to explain the Purgatory, the Hell, the Glory and the Heaven to faithful readers. Keywords: death, poetry, baroque, obsequies

Worker Health and Safety

From the best estimates we have, workers die as a result of health and safety crimes at perhaps 70 times the rate of people who are murdered and perhaps 15 times the rate of people killed in car accidents. Yet health and safety crimes are not the typical subject matter for criminology simply because they are not interpersonal crimes. Yes, individuals are involved, but health and safety crime always requires us to look beyond individual actors playing out a criminal event in a self-contained crime “scene.” This chapter provides a detailed overview of how safety crimes might be regarded as crimes of violence, and explores in detail the way scholars have characterized the regulation of those crimes. It closes by providing a theoretical and empirical description of the “political economy” approach to understanding safety crimes with reference to the case of a young English worker, Simon Jones, who was killed at the hands of his employer.
