The Status of the Liturgy in the Christian East and Liturgical Differentiations

Peter Caban

Ruch Biblijny i Liturgiczny > 2017 > 70 > 1

These types of liturgies and liturgical rites show us the richness that is present in the Christian East and West. They are the liturgical traditions of the Church, which preserves the continuity of the Christian liturgical tradition from the perspective of historical context in the environment where Christians live. Despite the glory of Constantinople, the Eastern Churches have preserved their own...

Reference by Deference: The Real Semiotic Profile of Indexicals and Their Context

Denis Perrin

Theoria > 87 > 1 > 109 - 135

This article aims at proposing an account of the linguistic meaning (or: character) of pure indexicals (indexicals, for short). On its core theoretical proposal, a deference mechanism is built into the meaning of indexicals, and this mechanism defers the task of reference to contextually‐given designation relations. The basic motivation for this claim is that the contexts of tokening of indexicals,...

Pronominal anaphora, coreference, and closed quotation marks

Luca Gasparri

Mind & Language > 34 > 3 > 339 - 356

Consider the following sentence: “Mary meditated on the sentence ‘Bill is a good friend’ and concluded that he was a good friend.” It is standardly assumed that in sentences of this sort, containing so‐called “closed” quotations, the expressions occurring between quotation marks are mentioned and do not take their ordinary referents. The quoted NP “Bill” refers, if anything, to the name ‘Bill,’ not...

Cue Combinatorics in Memory Retrieval for Anaphora

Dan Parker

Cognitive Science > 43 > 3 > n/a - n/a

Many studies have shown that memory retrieval for real‐time language processing relies on a cue‐based access mechanism, which allows the cues available at the retrieval site to directly access the target representation in memory. An open question is how different types of cues are combined at retrieval to create a single retrieval probe (“cue combinatorics”). This study addresses this question by...

The Development of Anaphora Resolution in Spanish

Isabel R. Rodríguez-Ortiz, Francisco J. Moreno-Pérez, Pablo Delgado, David Saldaña

Journal of Psycholinguistic Research > 2019 > 48 > 4 > 797-817

The present study focuses on the development of Spanish pronominal processing. We investigate whether the pronoun interpretation problem (i.e., reflexive pronouns comprehension is resolved at an earlier age than that of personal pronouns, also known as the Delay of the Principle B Effect), which has been documented in other languages, also occurs in Spanish. For this purpose, we conducted two experiments...

Analiza porównawcza słownictwa nawiązującego do miłosierdzia Bożego w syryjskiej anaforze św. Jakuba w odniesieniu do kanonu modlitw żydowskich

Mirosław Rucki, Michael Abdalla

Przegląd Orientalistyczny > 2018 > 3-4 (267-268) > 337-351

In the paper, one of the oldest Syriac Anaphora of St. James was analyzed in its present form. Numerous words and phrases related to God’s mercy are compared to those used in modern Jewish prayers. Even though Jewish and Christian prayer traditions split long ago, there are still too many common details. Jews and Christians use even similar phrases seeking God’s mercy. This is particularly observable...

Integrating LFG’s binding theory with PCDRT

M. Dalrymple, D. T. T. Haug, J. J. Lowe

Journal of Language Modelling > 2018 > Vol. 6, No. 1 > 87--129

We provide a formal model for the interaction of syntax and pragmatics in the interpretation of anaphoric binding constraints on personal and reflexive pronouns. We assume a dynamic semantics, where type e expressions introduce discourse referents, and contexts are assignments of individuals to discourse referents. We adopt the Partial Compositional Discourse Representation Theory (PCDRT) of Haug...

The Generality of Anaphoric Deflationism

Pietro Salis

Philosophia > 2019 > 47 > 2 > 505-522

Anaphoric deflationism is a kind of prosententialist account of the use of “true.” It holds that “true” is an expressive operator and not a predicate. In particular, “is true” is explained as a “prosentence.” Prosentences are, for sentences, the equivalent of what pronouns are for nouns: As pronouns refer to previously introduced nouns, so prosentences like “that’s true” inherit their semantic content...

Illatio hispánsko‑mozarabské liturgie

Pavel Kopeček

Studia theologica > 2018 > 4 > 71-92

The article describes the basic motif of praise as it appears in Hispanic liturgical texts that perceive God‘s action in the dynamics of salvation. The theme of creation and redemption is the cornerstone of every illatio, which evolves in the subsequent eulogy. Additional motifs contained in illatio, which according to the liturgical year are marked as paschal and lust, are developed from this original...

Anaphoric Strategies Across Language Modalities: A Comparison Between Catalan and Catalan Sign Language (LSC)

Laia Mayol, Gemma Barberà

Journal of Psycholinguistic Research > 2018 > 47 > 2 > 431-447

The goal of this paper is to compare the different anaphoric strategies that Catalan and Catalan Sign Language (LSC) use by means of a parallel corpus. In particular, our comparison is focused in an examination of the uses of overt subject pronouns in Catalan and how these uses are rendered in a language that exploits the visual-manual modality, such as LSC. As far as we know, this is one of the first...

Factivity and presupposition in Dependent Type Semantics

R. Tanaka, K. Mineshima, D. Bekki

Journal of Language Modelling > 2017 > Vol. 5, No. 2 > 385--420

Dependent type theory has been applied to natural language semantics to provide a formally precise and computationally adequate account of dynamic aspects of meaning. One of the frameworks of natural language semantics based on dependent type theory is Dependent Type Semantics (DTS), which focuses on the compositional interpretations of anaphoric expressions. In this paper, we extend the framework...

The grammar of binding in the languages of the world: A response to Reuland

Yanti, Peter Cole, Gabriella Hermon

Cognition > 2017 > 168 > C > 380-384

Cole, Hermon, and Yanti (2015) argue that the empirical facts related to anaphoric binding in two dialects of Jambi Malay undermine the Classical Binding Theory. Reuland (2017) agrees with this conclusion but argues that the data are easily accounted for by his alternative Universal Grammar-based approach to Binding. In this response, we demonstrate that the alternative proposal for Jambi Malay rests...

BMC Bioinformatics > 2017 > 18 > 1 > 1-14

Background Coreference resolution is the task of finding strings in text that have the same referent as other strings. Failures of coreference resolution are a common cause of false negatives in information extraction from the scientific literature. In order to better understand the nature of the phenomenon of coreference in biomedical publications and to increase performance on the task, we annotated...

A hybrid approach for anaphora resolution in the Russian language

Anna Kozlova, Alexey Svischev, Olga Gureenkova, Tatiana Batura

2017 Siberian Symposium on Data Science and Engineering (SSDSE) > 36 - 40

2017 Siberian Symposium on Data Science and Engineering (SSDSE)

The paper is dedicated to applying a hybrid approach based on rules and machine learning for anaphora resolution in the Russian language. The model combines formal rules, the Extra Trees machine learning algorithm and the Balance Cascade algorithm for working with imbalanced learning sets. A number of features were obtained from the rules or were generated from other features; in addition, the syntactic...

Prosodic prominence shifts are anaphoric

Jeffrey Klassen, Michael Wagner

Journal of Memory and Language > 2017 > 92 > C > 305-326

This paper presents evidence that shifts in prosodic prominence are anaphoric and require a contextually salient antecedent, similar to pronouns. The argument is based on a series of experiments looking at prosodic optionality in dialogues in which there are multiple potential antecedents embedded in a contextually salient coordinated structure. By looking at the interaction with adverbs that restrict...

Zapożyczenia greckie w syryjskiej anaforze Św. Jakuba Brata Pańskiego

Mirosław Rucki, Michael Abdalla

Przegląd Orientalistyczny > 2017 > 1-2 > 155-165

In this paper, the traditional Syriac Anaphora of St. James is described in its current form. Numerous Greek borrowings are present in the Syriac text of the Anaphora, testifying to the long-term contact of the Syriac language with the Greek. Some of the Greek words became known in Syriac before the Christian era, and they can be found in other dialects of Aramaic. Some were borrowed when the Assyrians...

Intentional Identity and Coordination

Hsiang-Yun Chen

Studia Semiotyczne > 2017 > 31 > 2 > 35–51

The concept of intentional identity has aroused considerable interests since Geach (1967). I argue, however, that the real import of intentional identity is still not duly appreciated. Drawing on three sets of close-knit data – intersubjective and intrasubjective intentional identity, along with cross-speaker anaphora, I submit coordination as the key to its proper understanding and propose a set...

Extracting Product Features for Opinion Mining Using Public Conversations in Twitter

Rania Othman, Rami Belkaroui, Rim Faiz

Procedia Computer Science > 2017 > 112 > C > 927-935

The conversational element of Twitter has recently become of particular interest to the marketing community. However, most studies on mining product features through Twitter, have so far employed simple individual tweets rather than considering the whole conversations. In this paper, we empirically evaluate whether employing user interactions in public conversations can improve the product feature...

Niedookreślenie, dekonkretyzacja i zmienne językowe – o quasi-tautologicznych układach typu ten i ten, to i to, tak a tak

Magdalena Żabowska

LingVaria : Półrocznik Wydziału Polonistyki UJ poświęcony zagadnieniom... > 2017 > 23 > 115-129

The paper analyses the semantic-syntactic description of expressions of the ten i ten, tak a tak (‘such and such’, ‘so and so’) type. These are not units of language but rather constructions which result from the filling of slots meant for anaphoric pronouns in such arrangements as _i i _i and _i a _i. In contrast to the _i i _j arrangement, the discussed idiomatic constructions express a reference...

Pronoun Resolution in Turkish Using Decision Tree and Rule-Based Learning Algorithms

Savaş Yıldırım, Yılmaz Kılıçaslan, Tuğba Yıldız

Lecture Notes in Computer Science > Human Language Technology. Challenges of the Information Society > Computational Semantics > 270-278

This paper reports on the results of some pronoun resolution experiments performed by applying a decision tree and a rule-based algorithm on an annotated Turkish text. The text has been compiled mostly from various popular child stories in a semi-automatic way. A knowledge-lean learning model has been devised using only nine most commonly employed features. An evaluation and comparison of the performances...
