Reflexivity, description and the analysis of social settings by Rodney Watson

“…This article, however, argues that the 'blanket use' of 'reflexivity' glosses over and confuses many different actual definitions and understandings of the concept - not least because the concept operates differently as a move within each of the divergent analytic 'games' that compose the overall discipline. …”

Full Diacritization of the Arabic Text to Improve Screen Readers for the Visually Impaired by Batool Abuali, Mohamad-Bassam Kurdy

“…This paper aims to find the relationship between the full diacritization of the Arabic text and the quality of the speech synthesized in screen readers and presents a new methodology to develop screen readers for the visually impaired, focusing on preprocessing and diacritization of the text before converting it to audio. First, the actual need for our proposal was measured by conducting a MOS (Mean Opinion Score) questionnaire to evaluate the quality of the speech synthesized before and after full diacritization in the NVDA (https://www.nvda-ar.org/) screen reader. …”

Locative Inversion In Discourse: a strategy of non-commitment by Christine Copy, Lucie Gournay

“…Some examples of these properties are: LI’s incompatibility with negation or epistemic modalization, strong aspectual and temporal restrictions such as its incompatibility with BE+ING or generic interpretations.In the second part of this paper, we provide a discursive analyse of LI in two actual literary contexts: i) first, when it occurs at the beginning of folktales; there, its predicative use is compared to there-sentences, the latter, we argue, being typically speaker-based predications; ii) then, when it occurs in narrative’s descriptions (for instance in crime-scene description); there, LI appears in a context of internal focalization, with the make-belief effect of referring directly to the situation described as if it was perceptible by everyone.In both cases, it appears that LI occurs in contexts where the speaker is pragmatically determined. …”

La lengua guaraní dependiente en tiempos de Independencia en Paraguay by Bartomeu Melià (S. J.)

“…Jesuitic Guaraní therefore seems to have outlived the Jesuits’ actual presence. By some strange paradox, after the proclamation of Paraguayan independence in 1811, Guaraní texts were no longer found, even though Paraguayans went on communicating in Guaraní language on a daily basis, as reported by numerous travellers who visited the country in the 19th century.…”

The Influence of the Track Parameters on Vibration Characteristics of Subway Tunnel by Wenbo Shi, Linchang Miao, Junhui Luo, Honglei Zhang

“…A nonlinear coupling model of wheel-track and a finite element calculation model of tunnel and soil were established based on the mechanical character of elastic supporting block ballastless track and the actual parameters of Nanjing soft soil. The time-variant vertical acceleration of the rail, the sleepers, and the surface of the tunnel can be calculated by the models, and the frequency dependence acceleration was verified by the fast Fourier transform algorithm. …”

Alienation, Adoption or Adaptation? Aestheticist Paintings by Women by Pamela Gerrish Nunn

“…In scrutinising Aestheticism, feminist scholarship has found the usual characteristics: a band of male actors, achievers and heroes, an extensive use of female imagery, and an investment in the idea or fantasy of Woman in the absence (designed or accidental) of actual women. With regard to Aestheticism as a literary trend, scholars working under the influence of feminism, from Elaine Showalter on, have restored female agency to the territory, re-instating the achievements of various women writers in shaping Aestheticism in its own time, while provoking a reassessment of its meanings and messages through this problematising of the authority of its traditional movers and shakers (Schaffer and Psomiades, Women and British Aestheticism, 1999; Schaffer, The Forgotten Female Aesthetes, 2000). …”
