Parody, Politics and the Populace in Greek Old Comedy
by Donald SellsThis book argues that Old Comedy's parodic and non-parodic engagement with tragedy, satyr play, and contemporary lyric is geared to enhancing its own status as the preeminent discourse on Athenian art, politics and society. Donald Sells locates the enduring significance of parody in the specific cultural, social and political subtexts that often frame Old Comedy's bold experiments with other genres and drive its rapid evolution in the late fifth century. Close analysis of verbal, visual and narrative strategies reveals the importance of parody and literary appropriation to the particular cultural and political agendas of specific plays.This study's broader, more flexible definition of parody as a visual – not just verbal – and multi-coded performance represents an important new step in understanding a phenomenon whose richness and diversity exceeds the primarily textual and literary terms by which it is traditionally understood.

Parole (Studien zu Kinder- und Jugendliteratur und -medien #2)
by Caroline RoederAuch 50 Jahre nach 1968 sind die Kinder- und Jugendliteratur und -medien in vielfältiger Weise in politische und ideologische Horizonte eingespannt. Angesichts der aktuellen ‚Wiederkehr’ des Ideologischen und insbesondere nach dem kulturwissenschaftlichen Turn in den Geisteswissenschaften stellen sich die Fragen nach politischen und ideologischen Einschreibungen unter neuer Perspektive. Der Band versammelt 25 Beiträge, die das Feld historisch, kulturwissenschaftlich und systemtheoretisch vermessen. Dabei werden literaturästhetische Aspekte ebenso thematisiert wie pädagogische Diskurse oder interdisziplinäre Vernetzungen.
Parsing Beyond Context-Free Grammars (Cognitive Technologies)
by Laura KallmeyerGiven that context-free grammars (CFG) cannot adequately describe natural languages, grammar formalisms beyond CFG that are still computationally tractable are of central interest for computational linguists. This book provides an extensive overview of the formal language landscape between CFG and PTIME, moving from Tree Adjoining Grammars to Multiple Context-Free Grammars and then to Range Concatenation Grammars while explaining available parsing techniques for these formalisms. Although familiarity with the basic notions of parsing and formal languages is helpful when reading this book, it is not a strict requirement. The presentation is supported with many illustrations and examples relating to the different formalisms and algorithms, and chapter summaries, problems and solutions. The book will be useful for students and researchers in computational linguistics and in formal language theory.
Parsing the Turing Test: Philosophical and Methodological Issues in the Quest for the Thinking Computer
by Robert Epstein Gary Roberts Grace BeberAn exhaustive work that represents a landmark exploration of both the philosophical and methodological issues surrounding the search for true artificial intelligence. Distinguished psychologists, computer scientists, philosophers, and programmers from around the world debate weighty issues such as whether a self-conscious computer would create an internet ‘world mind’. This hugely important volume explores nothing less than the future of the human race itself.
Parsing with Principles and Classes of Information (Studies in Linguistics and Philosophy #63)
by Paola MerloParsing with Principles and Classes of Information presents a parser based on current principle-based linguistic theories for English. It argues that differences in the kind of information being computed, whether lexical, structural or syntactic, play a crucial role in the mapping from grammatical theory to parsing algorithms. The direct encoding of homogeneous classes of information has computational and cognitive advantages, which are discussed in detail. Phrase structure is built by using a fast algorithm and compact reference tables. A quantified comparison of different compilation methods shows that lexical and structural information are most compactly represented by separate tables. This finding is reconciled to evidence on the resolution of lexical ambiguity, as an approach to the modularization of information. The same design is applied to the efficient computation of long- distance dependencies. Incremental parsing using bottom-up tabular algorithms is discussed in detail. Finally, locality restrictions are calculated by a parametric algorithm. Students of linguistics, parsing and psycholinguistics will find this book a useful resource on issues related to the implementation of current linguistic theories, using computational and cognitive plausible algorithms.
Parteiliche Kommunikation am politischen Wendepunkt: Der EU-Beitritt der Türkei in deutschen und türkischen Parlamentsdebatten
by Didem OzanVorwort Vorwort Diese Arbeit hat der Philosophischen Fakultät der Westfälischen Wilhelms- Universität Münster vorgelegen und wurde im Sommersemester 2008 als Diss- tation angenommen. Mit ihrer Veröffentlichung geht ein bedeutsamer Lebens- schnitt zu Ende. Bereits zu Beginn meines Studiums der Deutschen Philologie standen Fragen zum Wesen des Menschen, zu Humanität, Dialog und Völkerv- ständigung im Mittelpunkt. Diese Fragen spannen sich wie ein roter Faden durch die Arbeit. Der Bereich der Rhetorik war besonders wichtig, da Sprache ein wesentliches Element menschlichen Miteinanders ist. Die Dissertation untersucht die Funktion rhetorischer Mittel im parlamentarischen Dialog. Der komplexe Gegenstand wird erschlossen mit der Theorie des Dialogischen Handlungsspiels. Diese erlaubt, gegensätzlich erscheinende soziale Phänomene wie Kooperation und Konflikt, Eigeninteresse und Respekt mit großem Erkenntnisgewinn in neue Beziehungen zueinander zu setzen. Mein besonderer Dank gilt hier der Betreuerin der Arbeit, Frau Prof. Edda Weigand. Ihren Anregungen habe ich intensive Fortschritte im eigenen wissenschaftlichen Denken zu verdanken. Sie gab mir außerdem die Möglichkeit, mit dem Beitrittsprozess der Türkei zur Europäischen Union ein spannendes interkulturelles Politikfeld linguistisch zu bearbeiten. Ich danke Prof. Thomas Bauer für die Erstellung des Zweitgutachtens. Meine besondere Ehre erweisen möchte ich an dieser Stelle dem im Juni dieses Jahres unerwartet verstorbenen Literaturwissenschaftler Prof. Detlef Kremer, dessen brillante Forschung und erfrischende Lehre mich vom ersten Semester an bis zu meiner mündlichen Promotionsprüfung hin begleitet hat.
Partial Histories: A Reappraisal of Colley Cibber
by Elaine M. McGirrThis book explores the multiple portrayals of the actor and theatre manager Colley Cibber, king of the dunces, professional fop, defacer of Shakespeare and the cruel and unforgiving father of Charlotte Charke. But these portraits of Cibber are doubly partial, exposing even as they paper over gaps and biases in the archive while reflecting back modern desires and methodologies. The Colley Cibber ‘everybody knows’ has been variously constructed through the rise of English literature as both a cultural enterprise and an academic discipline, a process which made Shakespeare the ‘nation’s poet’ and canonised Cibber’s enemies Pope and Fielding; theatre history’s narrative of the birth of naturalism; and the reclamation and celebration of Charlotte Charke by women’s literary history. Each of these stories requires a Colley Cibber to be its butt, antithesis, and/or bête noir. This monograph challenges these partial histories and returns the theatre manager, playwright, poet laureate and bon viveur to the centre of eighteenth-century culture and cultural studies.
Partial Visions
by Angelika BammerPositing that a radical utopianism is one of the most vital impulses of feminist politics, Partial Visions traces the articulation of this impulse in the work of Euro-American, French and German women writers of the 1970s. It argues that this feminist utopianism both continued and reconceptualized a critical dimension of Left politics, yet concludes that feminist utopianism is not just visionary, but myopic - time and culture bound - as well.

The Participatory Cultures Handbook
by Aaron Delwiche Jennifer Jacobs HendersonHow did we get from Hollywood to YouTube? What makes Wikipedia so different from a traditional encyclopedia? Has blogging dismantled journalism as we know it? Our media landscape has undergone a seismic shift as digital technology has fostered the rise of "participatory culture," in which knowledge is originated, created, distributed, and evaluated in radically new ways. The Participatory Cultures Handbook is an indispensable, interdisciplinary guide to this rapidly changing terrain. With short, accessible essays from leading geographers, political scientists, communication theorists, game designers, activists, policy makers, physicists, and poets, this volume will introduce students to the concept of participatory culture, explain how researchers approach participatory culture studies, and provide original examples of participatory culture in action. Topics include crowdsourcing, crisis mapping, grid computing, digital activism in authoritarian countries, collaborative poetry, collective intelligence, participatory budgeting, and the relationship between video games and civic engagement. Contributors include: Daren Brabham, Helen Burgess, Clay Calvert, Mia Consalvo, Kelly Czarnecki, David M. Faris, Dieter Fuchs, Owen Gallagher, Clive Goodinson, Alexander Halvais, Cynthia Hawkins, John Heaven, The Jannissary Collective, Henry Jenkins, Barry Joseph, Christopher Kelty, Pierre Lévy, Sophia B. Liu, Rolf Luehrs, Patrick Meier, Jason Mittell, Sarah Pearce, W. James Potter, Howard Rheingold, Suzanne Scott, Benjamin Stokes, Thomas Swiss, Paul Taylor, Will Venters, Jen Ziemke

Participatory reading in late-medieval England (Manchester Medieval Literature And Culture Mup Ser.)
by Heather BlattThis book traces affinities across the digital-medieval divide to explore how reading functioned as a nexus for concerns about literacy, audiences’ agency, literary culture and media formats. Interactive reading offered writers ways to make readers work to their benefit, even as these practices enabled audiences to make reading work for themselves.
Participatory Worlds: The limits of audience participation (ISSN)
by José BlázquezThis book is an in-depth analysis of participatory worlds, practices beyond the mainstream models of content production and IP management that allow audience members to contribute canonically to the expansion of storyworlds, blurring the line between the traditional roles of consumers and producers.Shifting discussions of participatory culture and cross-media production and consumption practices to more independent media contexts, the book explores the limits, borders and boundaries of participating in today’s digital media storyworlds. The text examines how audience participation works, identifying opportunities to make it a meaningful practice for audiences and an asset for IP owners, and discussing the challenges and barriers that the application of participatory culture brings along. The book defines what meaningful participation is by introducing the concept of ‘intervention’ and explains a range of factors impacting the way in which participatory worlds and relationships between producers, audiences and the world are shaped.This volume will be of great relevance to media practitioners, scholars and students interested in transmedia storytelling, fandom, literary studies and comparative literature, new media and digital culture, gaming and media studies.
