PK/CDPages/Disambiguation The verb "disambiguate" is defined in Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary as follows: "to establish a single semantic or grammatical interpretation for." If applied to this disk, then, the title suggests that Pandelis Karayorgis is attempting to define his music in a single interpretation. Disambiguation is apt: at a time when "ecstatic jazz" has become a marketing label for empty bluster, this quartet's concentration on precise quarter-tones produces a new, if sombre, light. Disambiguation is far too complex and far too worthy a disk to confine to one interpretation. karayorgis.com /Pages/CDPages/Disambiguation.html   (3565 words)

Singing the way to Grammatical Perfection! The Revolution’s unravelling, she argues, was the result of its inability to generate a ‘permanent song culture’ in its polity. Drawing from the post-revisionist work of Keith Baker and François Furet, Mason contends that revolutionary song culture went full circle from the oppositional singing of the Ancien Régime to the oppositional singing of the Directory; the Revolution’s unravelling, she argues, was the result of its inability to generate a ‘permanent song culture’ in its polity. [10] The irony of women’s activism during the Revolution was that revolutionary discourse reinforced certain traditional notions of gender and moral economy, much as before. lacantatricegrammairienne.blogspot.com   (8654 words)

Freshman Seminar: Term Paper Assignment #3 Identification is used through the terms, “we,” “our,” and “democracy.” Roosevelt begins her speech by stating she understands the roots of democracy in France, “It was here the Declaration of Rights of Man was proclaimed, and the great slogans of the French Revolution—liberty, equality, fraternity—fired the imagination of men” (1). As she spoke of the terms that were fundamental of human rights, such as democracy, freedom, and individuality, she translated these terms to help the audience understand what they meant. Using these terms repetitively throughout her speech, Roosevelt was most likely able to persuade the audience that what they believe in is the right way, the only way, and should be viewed as a universal truth. www.uttyler.edu /meidenmuller/rhetoricandwesternculture/paperassignment3.htm   (3971 words)

Labour in Irish History : Our Irish Girondins Sacrifice The Irish Peasantry Upon The Altar Of Private Property The Young Irelanders, young and enthusiastic, felt the force of the Democratic principle then agitating European society, indeed the very name of Young Ireland was an adaptation of the names used by the Italian revolutionist Mazzini for the revolutionary associations, Young Italy, Young Switzerland, Young France, and Young Germany, he founded after the year 1831. While the people perished, the Young Irelanders talked, and their talk was very beautiful, thoroughly grammatical, nicely polished, and the proper amount of passion introduced always at the proper psychological moment. With his arrest the people looked for immediate revolution, so did the Government, so did Mitchel himself. www.marxist.net /ireland/connolly/labour/ch13.htm   (907 words)

Morphology - A Brief Introduction Derivational morpholgy, as in revolve versus revolution is concerned with the principles behind the creation of completely new words, and is less concerned with the grammatical role they play. Inflectional morphology is the study of the way words change when used in different grammatical contexts, for instance I run versus he runs. Derivational rules tend to be much less productive, or regular, than inflectional rules, and they also are much more likely to involve changes in the category, or part-of-speech, of a word than are inflectional rules. www.glosa.com /Morpho.htm   (907 words)

Landes: Representing Women in the Revolutionary Crowd The power of these allegories has been explained in various ways:  their resonance with Catholic iconography of Mary and female saints, and with stories of (real and fictive) heroines in the ancient republics; their contrast to the male faces of French monarchy; the grammatical gender of such words in Latin-derived languages. 4 This self-congratulatory outlook, characteristic also of the republican tradition of revolutionary historiography, has been challenged by recent feminist historiography on the gap between promise and reality in women’s circumstances during the Revolution. 5 On nineteenth-century historians see Linda Orr, Headless History: Nineteenth-Century French Historiography of the Revolution  (Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 1990).  The historian of French republicanism, Maurice Agulhon has shown that the embodiment of republican values in anonymous females was intended to limit women's participation to a passive role associated best with republican motherhood. chnm.gmu.edu /revolution/imaging/essays/landes1.html   (1221 words)

Articles - Quebec French Quebec's culture has only recently been discovered in Europe, especially since the Quiet Revolution ( Révolution tranquille), and the difference in dialects and culture is large enough that Quebec French speakers overwhelmingly prefer their own home-grown television dramas or sitcoms to shows from Europe. That is to say, for instance, that a verb whose grammatical subject is le monde (people, folks) may appear in the 3rd person plural because le monde designates multiple people although it is singular: le monde là-dedans sont en train de chiâler (the people in there are complaining). Quebec French is substantially different in pronunciation and vocabulary from the other varieties of French spoken throughout the world, just as the Portuguese, Spanish, and English languages of the Americas differ from the corresponding European dialects. www.lifevalley.com /articles/Quebecois_French   (737 words)

Timeline 1780-1789 The Treaty of 1783, which formally ended the American Revolution, is also known as the Definitive Treaty of Peace, the Peace of Paris and the Treaty of Versailles.

The State and Revolution Taken in its grammatical sense, a free state is one where the state is free in relation to its citizens, hence a state with a despotic government. On the other hand, he stated that the "smashing" of the state machine was required by the interests of both the workers and the peasants, that it unites them, that it places before them the common task of removing the "parasite" and replacing it by something new. The Commune was ceasing to be a state in so far as it had to suppress, not the majority of the population, but a minority (the exploit ers); it had smashed the bourgeois state machine; in place of a special repressive force, the population itself came on the scene. www.marx2mao.com /Lenin/SR17.html   (451 words)

Webster, Noah on Encyclopedia.com After serving in the American Revolution, Webster practiced law in Hartford. His Grammatical Institute of the English Language, in three parts, speller, grammar, and reader (1783-85), was the first of a list of publications which made him for many years the chief American authority on English. Webster wrote scholarly studies on a great diversity of subjects, including epidemic diseases, mythology, meteors, and the relationship of European and Asian languages. www.encyclopedia.com /html/w/webstern1.asp   (579 words)

requiem7 "(C)onvergent human skin colour, it rises" - the grammatical status of "it" here is a little unclear, though after the multiple shocks of "womb-noticing" and "goffered pudding" who's noticing? Murray perhaps pretends the mass rise into dignity and comfort (his phrasing) in no way derived from the operations of the intellect - or from demos or revolution. Green rose tan happily turns out to be "land's colour as seen from space" as well as "convergent human skin colour". www.eaf.asn.au /otis/requiem7.html   (579 words)

FIRST THINGS A curious state religion to be held by the eldest daughter of the Church, certainly, but in reality only the swinging back of the pendulum to where the nation was before the Revolution. He read FIRST THINGS avidly and was frustrated when he could not find a typo or grammatical error in an issue. In 2004 the former rector delivered from the pulpit a blast against George W. Bush and the war in Iraq, and the report is that the IRS is claiming that this constituted an implicit endorsement of a candidate and may cost the church its tax-exempt status. www.firstthings.com   (8884 words)

Songs of Innocence and Experience William Blake Doing my Homework Although Blake was not well educated we can assume that his sometimes over zealous use of “And” was not a grammatical error but there to stress the simplicity of the poem or to go against the established convention of literacy. William Blake, a poet and illustrator of the 18th and 19th century was witness to great changes throughout Britain and the world, including the French revolution which over threw the monarchy giving hope to many who had been repressed by corrupt monarchs and governments. The rhyming of the 2nd and 4th line of the stanzas in the “Nurse’s song” from “Songs of Experience” is similar to the poem from the “Songs of Innocence”, the rhythm of the poems however, differ. www.doingmyhomework.com /show_essay/9852.html   (628 words)

Poetry in the Slovene Language The Slovene language is one of the rare modern languages to have retained the dual-aspect, an archaic grammatical form: in Slovene, this special form - midway between singular and plural - is used to refer to two things or to two people. For example: after the revolution - when the communist ideology reigned with nihilistic cruelty, attempting to abolish all human rights to a private life- literature found a means of battling back against this nihilism. It would seem, furthermore, that the political role of literature as a support for cultural and national identity is renewed whenever liberty is in danger; it seems that this moral and political role played by literature in Slovenian society is a form of genetic coding which is reactivated whenever it proves necessary. www.leftcurve.org /LC22WebPages/slovene.html   (4163 words)

Chomsky's Revolution in Linguistics, by John R. Searle Seen as an attack on the methods and assumptions of structural linguistics, Chomsky's revolution appears to many of his students to be not quite revolutionary enough. The aim of the linguistic theory expounded by Chomsky in Syntactic Structures (1957) was essentially to describe syntax, that is, to specify the grammatical rules underlying the construction of sentences. Sentences are not unordered strings of words, rather the words and morphemes are grouped into functional constituents such as the subject of the sentence, the predicate, the direct object, and so on. www.chomsky.info /onchomsky/19720629.htm   (8879 words)

For example: after the revolution - when the communist ideology reigned with nihilistic cruelty, attempting to abolish all human rights to a private life- literature found a means of battling back against this nihilism. The alexandrine was extremely important in the shaping of Slovene poetry during the Age of Enlightenment; in effect, the victory of accentual (more exactly, accentual-syllabic) prosody against the hardly natural efforts towards producing quantitative versification in imitation of Greek and Latin poetry is linked to the introduction of the alexandrine amongst the Slovenes. www.leftcurve.org /LC22WebPages/slovene.html   (8484 words)

IL&S: Tajiki Persian Language & Script Although, modern Persian and Tajiki are almost the same language, there are several Tajiki grammatical peculiarities that distinguish it from Persian. Perso-Arabic had been the dominant script for writing Tajiki Persian until the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia.
