    Edmund Drury 1 On Other Worlds Edmund Drury WorldsOn Other An Investigation into Worldbuilding A Dissertation By Edmund Drury 2 3 On Other Worlds Edmund Drury Contents Introduction 7 Fictional Worlds in Real Place 12 Maps and Fiction 29 Translation 60 Conclusion 78 List of Illustrations 90 Bibliography 95 Printed and Bound by Edmund Drury 4 5 On Other Worlds Edmund Drury Introduction ‘Above all, worldbuilding is not technically necessary. It is the great clomping foot of nerdism. It is the attempt to exhaustively survey a place that isn’t there. A good writer would never try to do that, even with a place that is there. It isn’t possible, & if it was the results wouldn’t be readable: they would constitute not a book but the biggest library ever built, a hallowed place of dedication & lifelong study. This gives us a clue to the psychological type of the worldbuilder & the worldbuilder’s victim, & makes us very afraid.’ (Harrison, 2007) So is worldbuilding just boring nerdism? Certainly not all aspects of worldbuilding appeal to everyone. According to many it was the lengthy detail of trade disputes and politics that made the new Star Wars trilogy such a disaster, and certain passages in Lord of the Rings, one of the key texts in fantasy worldbuilding, are not always the easiest to read. Of course M. John Harrison cannot be totally averse to worldbuilding (his best known work is set in the fi ctional city of Viriconium) but he believes that focusing on it as an activity in its own right risks putting the creative emphasis in the wrong place.

  • Sign Langauge and Spoken Language Development: Literature Review
    Running head: SIGN LANGAUGE AND SPOKEN LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT: LITERATURE REVIEW Sign Language and Spoken Language Development in Normal Hearing Children, Children with Mild to Moderate Hearing Impairments, and Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Review of the Literature Appalachian State University Hayley Behm SIGN LANGAUGE AND SPOKEN LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT: LITERATURE REVIEW ABSTRACT: The influence of sign language on spoken language development has been extensively studied in typically developing children for many years. However, less is known about the influence of sign language on spoken language development for those with a mild hearing loss, or those with autism spectrum disorder. The goal of this thesis is to review the literature regarding the influence of sign language on spoken language development for those with mild hearing impairments, and those with autism spectrum disorder, in addition to those with normal hearing. Consistent with previous work, our review suggests that the presence of a signed language system neither helps, nor impairs spoken language development for those with normal hearing. However, exposure to sign language in addition to spoken language may improve verbal communication in children with autism spectrum disorder. There is insufficient data to determine the influence of sign language exposure on spoken language development for those with a mild to moderate hearing impairment. Introduction: Across cultures and languages, the ability to communicate is consistently one of the earliest and most essential goals that will be set for a child. However, not all parents are equipped with the knowledge of how to encourage and support language development for their children. In addition, for parents with a hearing-impaired child, or a child who shows a language delay for no apparent reason, parents may expect to by unsure of how to proceed in supporting language development for their child.
