Inside scholars share their research findings concerning current advances in corpus applications in literary and translation studies and explore possible and tangible collaborative research projects. The volume is split into two sections focusing on the applications of corpora in literary studies and translation studies. Issues explored include historical backgrounds, current trends, theories, methodologies, operational methods, and techniques, as well as training of research students. ![]() Yves Weinand, "Advanced Timber Structures: Architectural Designs and Digital Dimensioning" English | 2016 | ISBN: 3035605610 | PDF | pages: 240 | 17.8 mb Wood is usually perceived as a "traditional" material. However, the properties of this material have now for some time made it possible to design free shapes and highly complex structures. ![]() Derek Bickerton, "Adam's Tongue: How Humans Made Language, How Language Made Humans" English | 2009 | ISBN: 0809022818, 0809016478 | PDF | pages: 286 | 2.0 mb How language evolved has been called "the hardest problem in science." In Adam's Tongue, Derek Bickerton-long a leading authority in this field-shows how and why previous attempts to solve that problem have fallen short. Taking cues from topics as diverse as the foraging strategies of ants, the distribution of large prehistoric herbivores, and the construction of ecological niches, Bickerton produces a dazzling new alternative to the conventional wisdom.Language is unique to humans, but it isn't the only thing that sets us apart from other species-our cognitive powers are qualitatively different. So could there be two separate discontinuities between humans and the rest of nature? No, says Bickerton; he shows how the mere possession of symbolic units-words-automatically opened a new and different cognitive universe, one that yielded novel innovations ranging from barbed arrowheads to the Apollo spacecraft.Written in Bickerton's lucid and irreverent style, this book is the first that thoroughly integrates the story of how language evolved with the story of how humans evolved. Sure to be controversial, it will make indispensable reading both for experts in the field and for every reader who has ever wondered how a species as remarkable as ours could have come into existence. ![]() Andrew L. Russell, "Ada's Legacy: Cultures of Computing from the Victorian to the Digital Age " English | ISBN: 1970001518 | 2015 | 262 pages | PDF | 34 MB Ada's Legacy illustrates the depth and diversity of writers, thinkers, and makers who have been inspired by Ada Lovelace, the English mathematician and writer. The volume, which commemorates the bicentennial of Ada's birth in December 1815, celebrates Lovelace's many achievements as well as the impact of her life and work, which reverberated widely since the late nineteenth century. In the 21st century we have seen a resurgence in Lovelace scholarship, thanks to the growth of interdisciplinary thinking and the expanding influence of women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Ada's Legacy is a unique contribution to this scholarship, thanks to its combination of papers on Ada's collaboration with Charles Babbage, Ada's position in the Victorian and Steampunk literary genres, Ada's representation in and inspiration of contemporary art and comics, and Ada's continued relevance in discussions around gender and technology in the digital age. With the 200th anniversary of Ada Lovelace's birth on December 10, 2015, we believe that the timing is perfect to publish this collection of papers. Because of its broad focus on subjects that reach far beyond the life and work of Ada herself, Ada's Legacy will appeal to readers who are curious about Ada's enduring importance in computing and the wider world. ![]() Academic Integrity: Broadening Practices, Technologies, and the Role of Students: Proceedings from the European Conference on Academic Integrity and Plagiarism 2021 by Sonja Bjelobaba, Tomáš Foltýnek, Irene Glendinning, Veronika Krásničan, Dita Henek Dlabolová English | EPUB | 2023 | 391 Pages | ISBN : 3031169751 | 11.5 MB This book aims to broaden the horizons of academic integrity by discussing novel practices and technologies, and the importance of student involvement in building a culture of academic integrity.
