' ABSTRACT The article offers two approaches to the question of 'invisible punctuation,' theoretical and critical. The first is a taxonomy of modes of punctuational invisibility, · identifying denial, repression, habituation, error and absence. Each is briefly discussed and some relations with technologies of reading are considered. The second considers the paragraphing, or lack of it, in Sir Philip Sidney's Apology for Poetry: one of the two early printed editions and at least one of the two MSS are mono­ paragraphic, a feature always silently eliminated by editors as a supposed carelessness. It is argued that this is improbable

  • Chapter Two Literature Review in This Study, the Researcher Shows
    11 Chapter Two Literature Review In this study, the researcher shows definition and theory in literature review. The researcher writes some definition of punctuation marks taken from some researchers. Then, the researcher also adds review of related study that contains some research results taken from some researchers. The last is conceptual framework. The researcher takes summary from the theory from some researchers before. English Punctuation According to Jones (1994, p.421) “punctuation, as we consider it, can be defined as the central part of the range of non-lexical orthography”. Allthough arguments could be made for including the sub-lexical marks (e.g. hyphens, apostrolphes ) and structural marlcs (e.g. bullets in itemisations), they are excluded since they tend to be lexicalised or rather difficult to represent, respectively. The other concept comes from Samson (2014, p.23). He said, “punctuation enables us to clarify statements and communicate better with readers.” It is similar with the opinion from Ritter (2001, p. 112) said that “Punctuation exists to clarify meaning in the written word and to facilitate reading. Too much can hamper understanding through an uneven, staccato text, while too little can lead to misreading. Within the framework of a few basic rules (fewer still in fiction), an 12 author's choice of punctuation is an ingredient of style as personal as his or her choice of words.” Writing Writing is an outward expression of what is going on in the writer’s mind (Hussain, Hanif, Asif, and Rehman, 2013). Furthermore, according to Hussain et al (2013), “writing is the visual medium through which graphical and grammatical system of a language is manifested” (p.832).

  • The Fabulous Jewelry Fashions of Fall/Winter 2007
    The Fabulous Jewelry Fashions of Fall/Winter 2007 Natural Stones When you want to keep it soft, go with the buff and polish of genuine mother-of-pearl, aventurine, wood, jasper and freshwater pearls. Geometrics Edgy circles, squares and triangles take gold and silver metals from playful to sophisticated. They should figure prominently in your accessory wardrobe from work to weekend. Hammered Texture You can’t beat it. From beads to bracelets it’s hot, hot, hot -- especially in matte gold. Texture of all kinds is in the forefront right now. Green Even jewelry is showing its “organic” side this fall. Cultivate the green trend in leafy tones that go it alone or mix with the sparkle and brightness of multi-colored crystals and beads. Two-Tones Your best bet for career and travel. The marriage of gold and silver offers the ultimate in ver - satility. This season look for more matte finished combos and even matte and polished finish - es hanging out together. Jewel Tones All those neutral fashions are begging for a power surge of color -- in accessories that take mix and mingle to the extreme. Cut crystals and CZ’s lead the parade. IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT OUR COLLECTION: *All of our pierced earrings have stainless steel posts (surgical steel) and stainless steel butterfly clutches. The posts are notched, so that the clutch - es stay on tight. *All of our silver jewelry has a Rhodium finish unless otherwise specified. Rhodium will not tarnish or discolor. Your customers will find the finish will stay as nice as the day they bought it.

  • THE IMPORTANCE of BIBLICAL PUNCTUATION by John Temples
    BIBLICAL INSIGHTS #57: JOTS AND TITTLES: THE IMPORTANCE OF BIBLICAL PUNCTUATION By John Temples Jesus said in the Sermon on the Mount, “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass ​ ​ from the law till all is fulfilled” (Matthew 5:17-18). What on earth are jots and tittles? A jot (or yod) was the smallest letter in the ​ ​ Hebrew alphabet. It resembled an apostrophe (‘). A tittle was even smaller, and was a little “horn” or pen stroke on the end of a letter, rather like a serif on a letter in the English alphabet. The NIV does a good job of rendering the sense of Matthew 5:18--“I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.” (It’s important to note that the law was ​ fulfilled in Jesus and His sacrifice; so once that sacrifice was completed, and the sin debt was paid by Christ’s blood, the law did pass away and was replaced by the New Testament.) So Jesus was saying that not even the smallest parts of the law of Moses would pass away until all the law’s requirements were fulfilled. We use similar expressions when we want to emphasize the importance of small details, such as “dotting our i’s and crossing our t’s.” ​ ​ ​ ​ Also, in English we have small but important marks of punctuation--commas, ​ ​ periods, colons, question marks, etc.
