AND PHRASES*** These files were assembled by L. John Old, Napier University, Edinburgh, #22). ROGET'S THESAURUS OF ENGLISH WORDS AND PHRASES Notes on the automatically-generated Index to Roget's Thesaurus, 1911 edition. Introduction A true Roget's Thesaurus (as opposed to an alphabetically-listed synonym dictionary) is composed of three parts: - a hierarchical classification structure (hierarchy or "Synopsis of Categories"); - a body, which lists the Categories (whose titles are sometimes referred to as "head words" or "headings"), under which are found the groups of semantically- or conceptually-related words and phrases (also called synonyms or entries); - and an Index that lists the entries alphabetically (along with the Category titles and numbers under which the entry may be found in the body). This document contains the complete Index to the 1911 (American) edition. It was generated from the entries (synonyms, phrases and word lists) contained in the Gutenburg/MICRA free E- text thesaurus 14a (plain text version). It is larger than the original 1911 Roget's Thesaurus Index, containing all text entries (i.e. excluding numbers, special characters and parenthetical information) up to 25 characters long (91,000+ entries). Index Entries This Index lacks the intelligence found in the original hand-edited Index, where common-sense aggregations occur. For example A B C and A.B.C. are found under a single Index entry in the original Index.

  • The Aesthetics of Intoxication in Antebellum American Art and Culture
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: THE AESTHETICS OF INTOXICATION IN ANTEBELLUM AMERICAN ART AND CULTURE. Guy Duane Jordan, Ph.D., 2007 Directed By: Professor Sally M. Promey, Art History and Archaeology My dissertation, The Aesthetics of Intoxication in Antebellum American Art and Culture, proposes an ambitious re-evaluation of aesthetics in the United States between 1830 and 1860 that locates the consumption of images in relation to discourses of excess, addiction, and dependency. I uncover the antebellum period’s physiological construction of looking as a somatic process akin to eating and drinking and offer a new definition of aesthetic absorption not merely as the disembodied projection of the viewer into a pictorial space, but as the corporeal ingestion of the image into the mind of the viewing subject. I demonstrate how this heretofore unstudied and historically-grounded alignment of aesthesis and alimentation played a crucial role in the production and reception of antebellum literature and visual culture. To this end, my dissertation stands as a broad-ranging cultural history that features fundamental reinterpretations of major works of art by Charles Deas, Thomas Cole, Hiram Powers, and Frederic Church.

PEEFAOE, The following Avork had its origin in a felt want. Many students of the classical languages, all along the early part of their course, use text-books provided with vocabularies. These vocabularies, from the necessity of their limits, are brief and imperfect, and they enter but little into the subject of etymology. Even when afterwards the lexicon is used, the etymology is often studied only for separate words as they occur in reading; and the scattered and fragmentary information given in the lexicons pro- duces a corresponding state of knowledge in the mind even of a diligent student. No connected, systematic, or thorough knowledge of etymology is thus acquired. In the grammar something may be done for historical ety- mology ; but the requirements of other topics in a school grammar must always prevent this subject from receiving there the full treatment which its importance demands. There remain the larger works expressly devoted to the subject, nearly all of them in German, excellent when one gets to them and is prepared for them, but by their style and fulness, as well as size and cost, not adapted to the wants of an American school-room or of the ordinary stu- dent.

But if the definition refers to one with a rare gift for transforming the intangible into the tangible and seamlessly combining that which is ostensibly disparate, then Bill Laswell may very well qualify.” – Innerviews Raoul Bjorkenheim “I first heard Bjorkenheim’s guitar antics when he was with Edward Vesala’s Sound and Fury, a band that took jazz into startling territories. Apparantly, the Finnish drummer told him to ‘toally obliterate anything that had to do with standard guitar’, advice he has certainly tried to take to heart. His explorations…open strange, disturbing vistas where some notions of what electric guitar can/should do will be refreshed.” – Jazzitude Morgan Agren “…Agren is…a drummer’s drummer who can flit from cool traditional jazz to proggy rock to howling Swedish metal, without dropping a stick, without batting and eye…If you’ve got a drummer in your family, pick these records up…He’ll either thank you or give up his instrument forever.” – Popmatters If the British power trio Cream was the first guitar-led supergroup, Blixt is a 2011 aftershock. Five decades on, the sound is heavier and darker, the mix of ingredients more transgressive, the origins of the musicians more global, and the harmonic and rhythmic palettes more complex.

The Analogical Phonetic-Syllabic DICTIONARY FOR THE USE OF SHORTHAND WRITERS OF ANY PHONOGRAPHIC OR PHONETIC SYSTEM, GIVING THE PROPER CONSONANTAL SYLLABICATION OF ALL THE IMPORTANT WORDS IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE By CHARLES CURRIER BEALE and CORA E. BURBANK BEALE PUBLISHING COMPANY, 1 80 Washington St., Boston, Mass 5"1 \ ; 3 , 297 Westminster St., Providence, R. I. Copyright, 1891. f^-^ 4" *y^ Printed by the Beale "Shorthand" Print. 180 Washington St., Boston, Mass. ; PHONETIC- SYLLABIC DICTIONARY. iii FOREWORDS. T he history of shorthand is a story of progress and improvement, and the greater part of that progress and improvement has been made in the last fifty years. To the pioneer Isaac Pitman we owe our present phonographic systems of shorthand. However much we may deplore the apparent shortsighted policy attributed to him in later years ; however much we may dispute his right to the title of Inventor of Phonography however much we may assert the superiority of offshoots of his sys- tem, over the original; however much we may condemn his radical- ism, his frequent changes, his apparent inconsistencies; and however much we may press the claim of selfishness in attempting to prevent or crush rival authors in his own country, while enjoying all privi- leges of competition in this country; the statement still remains, and will always be incontrovertible, that to Isaac Pitman, English and American shorthand owes its present status. It was Isaac Pitman who developed the idea of a perfect sound-representation, which others before him had seen "as in a glass darkly." * To his energy and perseverance, we owe a debt of gratitude, which can never be repaid, and to him we yield precedence in the long roll of stenograph- ic worthies.

But the title of Raoul Björkenheim’s new album isn’t a boast or a brief manifesto. Rather, eCsTaSy is a simple description of the intense communion achieved by his extraordinary new ensemble. The project captures the Finnish-American musician at the peak of his powers, leading a virtuosic Finnish group featuring the brilliant saxophonist Pauli Lyytinen and the inventive rhythm section tandem of bassist Jori Huhtala and drummer Markku Ounaskari. eCsTaSy is Björkenheim’s fourth Cuneiform album, and the project opens the next chapter for an artist with a potent gift for leading improvisation-laced ensembles with a singular group sound. Performing together since 2010, the quartet explores an array of moods and textures, from brooding soundscapes and cinematic anthems to giddy grooves and meter-shifting steeplechases. For Björkenheim, the band has become an organism in its own right, “four guys with their own voice,” he says. “Pauli Lyytinen's sax inspires me with his fluency and inventiveness, and likewise Jori Huhtala, with his very rhythmical drive.
