This essay discusses the use of "Fascism" word in Raduan Nassar's novel A Cup Rage. It addresses elasticity given to term, via George Orwell (2017), as well links that such a concept has with, for instance, Liberalism and Marxism, light Atílio Boron (2003). Once this is done, focuses on term novel, namely: how it distances itself from sophisticated elaboration swarms unusual associations Nassar...

Avec M. Abensour, Claude Lefort fait partie des rares théoriciens du politique à reconnaître au Discours de la servitude volontaire l’importance d’un classique doté d’une véritable puissance d’intelligibilité. Il en propose une lecture scrupuleuseen 1977. suit également sa trace chez Camille Desmoulins, Constant, Guizot, Michelet, Quinet... Orwell. Mais il s’emploie surtout le mettre l’épreuve ...

In the present paper we intend to investigate to what extent use of parallel corpora can help to eliminate some of the difficulties noted with bilingual dictionaries. The particular issues addressed are the bidirectionality of translation equivalence, the coverage of multiword units, and the amount of implicit knowledge presupposed on the part of the user in interpreting the data. Three lexical...

The IDA01 conference featured a Data Analysis Challenge, to which all conference participants could respond. The challenge was organized around categorical time series data. A series of vectors of binary data was generated by the perceptual system of a mobile robot, and series of characters was taken from George Orwell's book 1984. In both cases, the boundaries between meaningful units (activit...

One of the main objectives of theoretical research in computational complexity and feasibility is to explain experimentally observed difference in complexity. Empirical evidence shows that the more solutions a system of equations has, the more difficult it is to solve it. Similarly, the more global maxima a continuous function has, the more difficult it is to locate them. Until now, these empir...

We created a simple gold standard for English-Hungarian NP-level alignment, Orwell’s 1984, (since this already exists in manually verified POS-tagged format in many languages thanks to the Multex and MultexEast project) by manually verifying the automaticaly generated NP chunking (we used the yamcha, mallet and hunchunk taggers) and manually aligning the maximal NPs and PPs. The maximum NP chun...

Parallel corpora encode extremely valuable linguistic knowledge about paired languages, both in terms of vocabulary and syntax. A professional translation of a text represents a series of linguistic decisions made by the translator in order to convey as faithfully as possible the meaning of the original text and to produce a “natural” text from the perspective of a native speaker of the target ...

This article reports the results of a p r e hmlna ry analysis of translation equivalents in four languages from different language famdles, extracted from an on-hne parallel corpus of George Orwell's Nmeteen Eighty-Four The goal of the study is to determine the degree to which translatmn equivalents for different meamngs of a polysemous word In Enghsh are lexlcahzed differently across a variety...

The EU MULTEXT-East project has produced harmonised language resources for Bulgarian, Czech, Estonian, Hungarian, Romanian, and Slovene. In this paper we introduce the MULTEXT-East multilingual corpus, which comprises marked-up texts in the six languages totaling approximately 2 million words and a small speech corpus. The corpus is encoded in SGML, in the TEI-like Corpus Encoding Specification...
