The Call for Papers discussed the idea of linguistic invention as com- pared to scientific invention, asking whether the term “invention” in regards to linguistic matters was valid, as the language we have inher- ited has de facto always preceded us. The spoken word must conform to the phono- and morphotactics of the language constraining the speaker. Chomsky would even push this constraining aspect further in his claim that each speaker is biologically equipped with a homogenized language and a set of unchanging rules that have been internalised, thus enabling her/him to produce a great number of novel sentences from a predictable productive system. What Chomsky's theory does not study is the subjec- t's capacity to break the rules and create nonce expressions. Yet individ- ual creations will only be admitted into the language if accepted by other individuals taking up, repeating and finally adopting the new expres- sion. This would tend to show that language is not merely in the mind of the speaker but is the object of interactive negotiations between speak- ers: linguistic invention can only be collective. This might be the reason why, as historians will show in this volume, the deliberate and authori- tative attempts at reforming some aspects of language have always been limited. Breaking the rules can then only be the preserve of poets or writ- ers taking the liberty to “distort” language into invented shapes. But this assertion also needs qualifying. Indeed as some linguists show here, ex nihilo creations in fiction are rather rare, creativity being more often than not rule-governed and serving a particular purpose which is fairly easily identifiable by the reader. What literary writers do manage to do how- ever, is a reshuing of existing elements which throw new and surpris- 9 PĹrĂeŊsŇsĂeŊŽ ĹuŠnĹiŠvČeĽrŇsĹiĹtĄaĹiĹrĂeŊŽ ĂdĂe ĎlĄaĞ MĂéĄdĹiĹtĄeĽrĹrĂaŠnĂéĄe— UŢnĂe ĂqĹuĂeŊsĹtĽiĂoŤn?

Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • Latinidaj Planlingvoj (AIS-Kurso, 1 Studunuo)
    Vĕra Barandovská-Frank: Latinidaj planlingvoj (AIS-kurso, 1 studunuo) La Latina apartenas al la italika grupo de la hindeŭropa lingvofamilio (tiu ĉi lingvofamilio ampleksas i.a. preskaŭ ĉiujn eŭropajn lingvojn, ekz. grupon ĝermanan kaj slavan), el la Latina evoluiĝis etnaj lingvoj nomataj Romanaj ( = latinidaj), precipe itala, romanĉa, sarda, franca, okcitana, hispana, kataluna, galega, portugala, gudezma, rumana, moldava. Latinidaj planlingvoj estas similaj al la Romanaj lingvoj kaj ofte imitas ilian evoluon. Latina skribo (el la greka kaj etruska alfabetoj): originale 20 majusklaj literoj (maiuscula): A B C D E F H I K L M N O P Q R S T V X . Literon I oni uzis ankaŭ por la sono [j], literon C ankaŭ por G, poste diferenciĝis [k] kaj [g]. U kaj V estis la sama litero: majuskle ekzistis nur V, poste minuskle (minuscula) u: VENIO – uenio (minuskloj evoluiĝis el la mezepoka karolinga alfabeto). En la klasika latina ne estis K, k, J j, U, u, v, W, w, Y, y, Z, z poste trans- prenitaj aŭ el la greka alfabeto (K, U, Y, Z ), aŭ faritaj el jam ekzistantaj literoj (J, W). Restaŭrita prononco: vokaloj longaj kaj mallongaj. La litero V/u estas aŭ konsonanta [ŭ] aŭ vokala [u]; i (j) aŭ konsonanta [j] aŭ vokala [i]. La litero c prononciĝis kiel [k]; qu kiel [kŭ]; au kiel [aŭ]; ae kiel [aj]; oe kiel [oj]. h estis antikve ĉiam prononcata, sed iom post iom malaperis. En helenaj pruntvortoj estis uzataj ch, ph, th [kh]/[ĥ], [ph], [th], poste [k], [p], [t]. La akcento ĝenerale troviĝis sur la antaŭlasta silabo, se ĝia vokalo estis longa, aŭ je la antaŭantaŭlasta, se mallonga, ekz.

  • Neutrality of International Languages*
    Haitao Liu 37 Journal of Universal Language 7 September 2006, 37-64 Neutrality of International Languages* Haitao Liu Communication University of China Abstract This paper focuses on the neutrality of international languages. First, a derivation of the concept of “neutral language” from “inter- national communicative act” is provided; it is argued that an acceptable neutral language for international communication can only be an artificial language. Certain characterizations of consciously created languages are discussed. The paper distinguishes two types of neutrality: communicative neutrality and linguistic neutrality. All planned languages are communicatively neutral, but their linguistic neutrality varies, reflecting the diversity of language design principles. Given that absolute linguistic neutrality unattainable, it becomes reasonable to construct a language based on certain control languages plus linguistic universals. We introduce the term “deneutralization” to designate a process whereby a neutral language changes into an ordinary language. The paper also shows that Esperanto has not become deneutralized. Keywords: international language, neutrality, deneutralization, artificial language, planned language, universal language, Esperanto * I am grateful to Detlev Blanke for insightful discussion. I’d also like to thank Probal Dasgupta for providing detailed comments and correcting my English. 38 Neutrality of International Languages 1. Introduction Today English is already a global language (Crystal 1997), but many people still consider that it is not an ideal solution for international communication. Wright (2000: 246-247) mentions one reason for this in her book on the role of language in nation-state building and European integration: “They [artificial languages] are ideally suited to the role [of lingua franca] since they are not the languages of European nations of states.

  • Participatory Propaganda Model 1
    A PARTICIPATORY PROPAGANDA MODEL 1 Participatory Propaganda: The Engagement of Audiences in the Spread of Persuasive Communications Alicia Wanless Michael Berk Director of Strategic Communications, Visiting Research Fellow, SecDev Foundation Centre for Cyber Security and International [email protected] Relations Studies, University of Florence [email protected] Paper presented at the "Social Media & Social Order, Culture Conflict 2.0" conference organized by Cultural Conflict 2.0 and sponsored by the Research Council of Norway on 1 December 2017, Oslo. To be published as part of the conference proceedings in 2018. A PARTICIPATORY PROPAGANDA MODEL 2 Abstract Existing research on aspects of propaganda in a digital age tend to focus on isolated techniques or phenomena, such as fake news, trolls, memes, or botnets. Providing invaluable insight on the evolving human-technology interaction in creating new formats of persuasive messaging, these studies lend to an enriched understanding of modern propaganda methods. At the same time, the true effects and magnitude of successful influencing of large audiences in the digital age can only be understood if target audiences are perceived not only as ‘objects’ of influence, but as ‘subjects’ of persuasive communications as well. Drawing from vast available research, as well as original social network and content analyses conducted during the 2016 U.S. presidential elections, this paper presents a new, qualitatively enhanced, model of modern propaganda – “participatory propaganda” - and discusses its effects on modern democratic societies. Keywords: propaganda, Facebook, social network analysis, content analysis, politics A PARTICIPATORY PROPAGANDA MODEL 3 Participatory Propaganda: The Engagement of Audiences in the Spread of Persuasive Communications Rapidly evolving information communications technologies (ICTs) have drastically altered the ways individuals engage in the public information domain, including news ways of becoming subjected to external influencing.

    Andreas Künzli (Svislando) KOMPARAJ RIMARKOJ PRI LA DEVENO, PROFESIO KAJ MOTIVOJ DE KELKAJ ĈEFAJ PLANLINGVAJ AŬTOROJ Kiel unu el la malmultaj profesiaj lingvistoj, nia altestimata jubileanto, prof. Aleksandr Dmitrievič Duličenko, aktive kaj serioze esploris la demandon de neǔtralaj universalaj lingvoj. Tial, la interlingvistika movado tre ĝojas kaj tre fieras posedi en tiu same fake kiel home elstara tartuano brilan scienciston-slaviston, kiu neniam rilatis indiferente al la interlingvistika afero, sed kiu male engaĝite observis ĝin kun granda intereso kaj kiu publikigis ne malmultajn verkaĵojn, kiuj havas por la interlingvistika scienco nemezureblan valoron. Koran dankon al vi, kara samideano! La celo kaj senco de ĉi tiu kontribuo estas, krom biografiaj notoj, fari malgrandan analizan komparon inter la deveno, profesio kaj motivoj de kelkaj gravaj planlingvaj kreantoj, listigi la esencan biografion, kaj prezenti kelkajn konkludojn. 1. Germana pastro Johann Martin Schleyer (1831-1912): Volapük (1879) Johann Martin Schleyer naskiĝis la 18an de julio 1831 en Oberlauda, Badeno, Germanio. Post sia pastriĝo Schleyer laboris en diversaj paroĥoj de la ĉefepiskopejo Freiburg i. Br. En 1862 li estis sendita al Messkirch, kaj 1867-75 li aktivis kiel katolika pastro en Krumbach apud Messkirch. En la tempo de “Kulturkampf“ Schleyer predikis kontraǔ la socialismo kaj tial devis pasigi kvar monatan punon en la fortikaĵo de Rastatt. Post sia liberiĝo en 1875 li venis al Litzelstetten apud Konstanz, kie li instaliĝis en la pastra domo, en kiu estiĝis la internacia planlingvo Volapük. En 1885, jam malsana, Schleyer rezignis pri sia laboro kiel pastro en Litzelstetten kaj translokiĝis al la urbo Konstanz mem, kie li mortis la 16an de aǔgusto 1912.

  • The Mystery of Iniquity, Will Be a Sure Guide Now, While Awaiting the Full Release of the Third Secret
    “The devil is a murderer and a liar from the beginning.” BY FATHER PAUL KRAMER About the Author and This Book Father Paul Kramer, a Catholic priest ordained over 32 years ago, has studied Catholic prophecy for over 40 years, in the Old and New Testaments as well as in the approved apparitions of Our Lady — especially the prophecies of Our Lady of Fatima. He has also pursued this research in the many writings of canonized saints and holy persons of the past 2,000 years. These saints have clarified certain points in the major Biblical prophecies which concern our time. Very many of these saints’ prophecies point to our day and reveal to us the earth-shaking events that are about to overcome the world. Father Kramer’s vast knowledge of Catholic prophecy as well as his penetrating analysis of current events and his personal research (uncovering further gems, not before widely known in the literature of prophecy) qualifies him to tell us — at least in part — what are the missing contents of the Third Secret and why it is so important for each of us to know. This book is an aid to prepare the world for the full revelation of the Third Secret. As Jesus said: “The truth will set you free.” We need this prophetic truth now. While the knowledge of the Third Secret is so necessary for the well-being of all mankind, it nevertheless will be a shock to many people. Pope Benedict XVI is conducting an “Operation Truth-telling about Fatima,” as Socci calls it.
