Biochemical proccr are described which have been found useful in the s tudy of normal pyrimidine Inctabolism as influenced by 6-azm~ridine. One technic involves the t rapping of radioactive carbon dioxide liberated from erotic acid-7-C ~4 during the conversion of this compound to uridine nucleotides by isolated leukocytes in vitro. The susceptibility of this conversion to inhibition by azauridi...

We investigate the performance of non-expert judges in using leading computational poetry evaluation metrics to evaluate poetry written by humans. We find that regardless of the model used, non-expert judges are very poor at using metrics to evaluate creativity, even displaying the reverse of the desired rating pattern, preferring novice poetry to professional poetry. We discuss likely reasons ...

Poetry conventionally is the liberated utterance of the feeling subject, “the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings” (Wordsworth). The computer has taken poetry in several significant directions. With poetry on the page (electronic or otherwise), the computer has emulated human-authored texts. But it has also been used to create more experimental poetries. A further, better known, initiativ...

With the recent advances of neural models and natural language processing, automatic generation of classical Chinese poetry has drawn significant attention due to its artistic and cultural value. Previous works mainly focus on generating poetry given keywords or other text information, while visual inspirations for poetry have been rarely explored. Generating poetry from images is much more cha...

ions and Concretions In the history of philosophy, the aim has predominantly been a universal and therefore neutral description of phenomena. The sphere of the erotic, so clearly linked to the sexual and gendered speci@city and singularity of the subject, seems for this reason to be a diLcult subject for philosophers. At what level of abstraction should one approach the erotic phenomenon? Pheno...

Chinese poetry is the soul of Chinese literature and Chinese culture. A good translation of a Chinese verse can promote the prevalence of Chinese culture. In the translation of Chinese poetry, translators should not only keep the characteristics of Chinese poems, but also embody the English characteristics. This article analyzed some versions of translation and proposed factors affecting the tr...

Hegel's view of poetry clarifies the overall role of language in his system and allows him to makes sense of a difficult linguistic issue: how to distinguish between poetry and prose. For Hegel, this distinction is crucial because it illuminates the different ways poetry and prose allow us to understand ourselves as members of an ethical community. In this paper, I argue, using Hegel, that the ...

The focus of this report is a poetry program that the author has been conducting at a nursing home/short-stay rehabilitation facility for the past three and a half years. The program involves reading poetry to groups of very elderly residents who have significant mental and/or physical disabilities. This article includes a description of the program and the author's observations of its benefici...

In this paper a method is developed to analyze the increase of complexity from classical Greek poetry to classical Latin poetry by mapping large samples of poems onto a symbolic time series. This mapping setup intends to characterize the regular succession of rhythms, that is, the patterns of stressed and unstressed syllables in a verse. Using techniques from information theory; more precisely,...
