The Assignment of Grammatical Gender in German: Testing Optimal Gender Assignment Theory
The Assignment of Grammatical Gender in German: Testing Optimal Gender Assignment Theory Emma Charlotte Corteen Trinity Hall September 2018 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The Assignment of Grammatical Gender in German: Testing Optimal Gender Assignment Theory Emma Charlotte Corteen Abstract The assignment of grammatical gender in German is a notoriously problematic phenomenon due to the apparent opacity of the gender assignment system (e.g. Comrie 1999: 461). Various models of German gender assignment have been proposed (e.g. Spitz 1965, Köpcke 1982, Corbett 1991, Wegener 1995), but none of these is able to account for all of the German data. This thesis investigates a relatively under-explored, recent approach to German gender assignment in the form of Optimal Gender Assignment Theory (OGAT), proposed by Rice (2006). Using the framework of Optimality Theory, OGAT claims that the form and meaning of a noun are of equal importance with respect to its gender. This is formally represented by the crucial equal ranking of all gender assignment constraints in a block of GENDER FEATURES, which is in turn ranked above a default markedness hierarchy *NEUTER » *FEMININE » *MASCULINE, which is based on category size. A key weakness of OGAT is that it does not specify what constitutes a valid GENDER FEATURES constraint. This means that, in theory, any constraint can be proposed ad hoc to ensure that an OGAT analysis yields the correct result. In order to prevent any constraints based on ‘postfactum rationalisations’ (Comrie 1999: 461) from being included in the investigation, the GENDER FEATURES constraints which have been proposed in the literature for German are assessed according to six criteria suggested by Enger (2009), which seek to determine whether there is independent evidence for a GENDER FEATURES constraint. -

Love Is a Metaphor: 99 Metaphors of Love
LOVE IS A METAPHOR: 99 METAPHORS OF LOVE https://www.thoughtco.com/love-is-a-metaphor-1691861 1. A Fruit Love is a fruit, in season at all times and within the reach of every hand. Anyone may gather it and no limit is set. (Mother Teresa, No Greater Love, 1997) 2. A Banana Peel I look at you and wham, I'm head over heels. I guess that love is a banana peel. I feel so bad and yet I'm feeling so well. I slipped, I stumbled, I fell. (Ben Weisman and Fred Wise, "I Slipped, I Stumbled, I Fell," sung by Elvis Presley in the film Wild in the Country, 1961) 3. A Spice Love is a spice with many tastes--a dizzying array of textures and moments. (Wayne Knight as Newman in the final episode of Seinfeld, 1998) 4. A Rose Love is a rose but you better not pick it. It only grows when it's on the vine. A handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it. You lose your love when you say the word "mine."(Neil Young, "Love Is a Rose," 1977) 5. A Garden Now that you're gone I can see That love is a garden if you let it go. It fades away before you know, And love is a garden--it needs help to grow.(Jewel and Shaye Smith, "Love Is a Garden," 2008) 6. A Plant Love is a plant of the most tender kind, That shrinks and shakes with every ruffling wind. (George Granville, The British Enchanters, 1705) 7. -

Naming Effects in Lucretius' De Rerum Natura
Antonomasia, Anonymity, and Atoms: Naming Effects in Lucretius’ DRN Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics Antonomasia, Anonymity, and Atoms: Naming Effects in Lucretius’ De rerum natura Version 1.0 September 2009 Wilson H. Shearin Stanford University Abstract: This essay argues that selected proper names within Lucretius’ De rerum natura, rather than pointing deictically or referring with clear historical specificity, instead render Lucretius’ poem vaguer and more anonymous. To make this case, the essay first briefly surveys Roman naming practices, ultimately focusing upon a specific kind of naming, deictic naming. Deictic naming points (or attempts to point) to a given entity and often conjures up a sense of the reality of that entity. The essay then studies the role of deictic naming within Epicureanism and the relationship of such naming to instances of naming within De rerum natura. Through analysis of the nominal disappearance of Memmius, the near nominal absence of Epicurus, and the deployment of Venus (and other names) within the conclusion to Lucretius’ fourth book, the essay demonstrates how selected personal names in De rerum natura, in contrast to the ideal of deictic naming, become more general, more anonymous, whether by the substitution of other terms (Memmius, Epicurus), by referential wandering (Venus), or by still other means. The conclusion briefly studies the political significance of this phenomenon, suggesting that there is a certain popular quality to the tendency towards nominal indefiniteness traced in the essay. © Wilson H.

Autobiography and the Case of the Signature: Reading Derrida's Glas
WINTER 1986 Volume 38, Number 1 JANE MARIE TODD Autobiography and the Case of the Signature: Reading Derrida's Glas ACQUES DERRIDA'S Glas seems to defy the familiar categories of genre. Each page is divided into two columns: on the left, a me- ticulous discussion of Hegel's philosophical works, from his early writ- ings to the Phenomenology of Spirit and the Aesthetics; on the right, a fragmented, lyrical celebration of Jean Genet's literary writings. Strad- dling the distance between philosophy and literature, Glas combines widely diverse writing styles, modes, levels of discourse and even type- faces. Each of the two columns splits again to allow for marginalia, sup- plementary comments, lengthy quotations, and dictionary definitions. Paragraphs break off in mid-sentence to make way for undigested ma- terial, excerpts from Hegel's correspondence or translations of Poe's poetry, only to resume several pages later. Despite or because of its "defiance" of categorization, this curious and challenging text offers a direct contribution to literary theory: in both form and subject matter, it details a new way of viewing genre definitions. In his discussion of Genet's autobiographical writings-, Derrida sug- gests that the status of the signature is a "preliminaire indispensable "a l'explication de la formalite (par exemple, 'litteraire') avec tous les juges muscles qui l'interrogent depuis des instances apparemment ex- trinsiques (question du sujet-biographique, historique, &conomique, politique, etc.-class6).
