Averting a Great Divergence: State and Economy in Japan, 1868-1937 by Peer Vries
2020 | ISBN: 1350121673, 1350196177 | English | 320 pages | PDF | 3 MB
The most significant debate in global economic history over the past twenty years has dealt with the Great Divergence, the economic gap between different parts of the world. Thus far, this debate has focused on China, India and north-western Europe, particularly Great Britain. This book shifts the focus to ask how Japan became the only non-western county that managed, at least partially, to modernize its economy and start to industrialize in the 19th century.
Automorphic Forms and Galois Representations: Volume 1 By Fred Diamond, Payman L. Kassaei, Minhyong Kim
2014 | 390 Pages | ISBN: 1107691923 | PDF | 3 MB
Automorphic forms and Galois representations have played a central role in the development of modern number theory, with the former coming to prominence via the celebrated Langlands program and Wiles' proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. This two-volume collection arose from the 94th LMS-EPSRC Durham Symposium on 'Automorphic Forms and Galois Representations' in July 2011, the aim of which was to explore recent developments in this area. The expository articles and research papers across the two volumes reflect recent interest in p-adic methods in number theory and representation theory, as well as recent progress on topics from anabelian geometry to p-adic Hodge theory and the Langlands program. The topics covered in volume one include the Shafarevich Conjecture, effective local Langlands correspondence, p-adic L-functions, the fundamental lemma, and other topics of contemporary interest.
Petre M. Petrov, "Automatic for the Masses: The Death of the Author and the Birth of Socialist Realism"
English | ISBN: 1442648422 | 2015 | 328 pages | PDF | 2 MB
At the end of the 1920s, the Modernist and avant-garde artistic programmes of the early Soviet Union were swept away by the rise of Stalinism and the dictates of Socialist Realism. Did this aesthetic transition also constitute a conceptual break, or were there unseen continuities between these two movements? In Automatic for the Masses, Petre M. Petrov offers a novel, theoretically informed account of that transition, tracing those connections through Modernist notions of agency and authorship.
Ana Díaz-Negrillo, Nicolas Ballier, Paul Thompson, "Automatic Treatment and Analysis of Learner Corpus Data"
English | 2013 | pages: 320 | ISBN: 9027203660 | PDF | 17,6 mb
This book is a critical appraisal of recent developments in corpus linguistics for the analysis of written and spoken learner data. The twelve papers cover an introductory critical appraisal of learner corpus data compilation and development (section 1); issues in data compilation, annotation and exchangeability (section 2); automatic approaches to data identification and analysis (section 3); and analysis of learner corpus data in the light of recent models of data analysis and interpretation, especially recent automatic approaches for the identification of learner language features (section 4). This collection is aimed at students and researchers of corpus linguistics, second language acquisition studies and quantitative linguistics. It will significantly advance learner corpus research in terms of methodological innovation and will fill in an important gap in the development of multidisciplinary approaches (for learner corpus studies).
Robert S. Sturges, "Aucassin and Nicolette: A Facing-Page Edition and Translation"
English | ISBN: 1611861578 | 2015 | 134 pages | PDF | 1052 KB
A comic masterpiece of medieval French literature, Aucassin and Nicolette is categorized by its anonymous author as a "chantefable," or "song-story," and is the only known work of this kind. This edition includes the thirteenth-century French text and a modern English translation on facing pages. An introduction outlines the text's background, genre, literary relations, historical contexts, major themes, and relevance to a contemporary audience. Its alternating sections of verse and prose recount a story of love between the aristocratic but distinctly unheroic young lord Aucassin and his beloved Nicolette. Despite familial disapproval, class and ethnic differences, imprisonment, and geographical separation, Nicolette's single-minded pursuit of Aucassin raises interesting questions about gender roles and their depiction in the Middle Ages. The issue of identity is also addressed, as the identity of Nicolette shifts in terms of class, religion, and ethnicity: born a Muslim princess, she becomes both a slave and a Christian convert, and is eventually recaptured by her Saracen family, much to her displeasure. With its daring escapes, its descriptions of travel to exotic lands, its separations, and its happy reunions, is both a classic romantic comedy and an entertaining parody of the romance genre.
Artificial Intelligence in Education: Emerging Technologies, Models and Applications
English | 2022 | ISBN: 9811675260 | 369 Pages | PDF | 7 MB
This edited book is a collection of selected research papers presented at the 2021 2nd International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Education Technology (AIET 2021), held in Wuhan, China on July 2-4, 2021. AIET establishes a platform for AI in education researchers to present research, exchange innovative ideas, propose new models, as well as demonstrate advanced methodologies and novel systems. Rapid developments in artificial intelligence (AI) and the disruptive potential of AI in educational use has drawn significant attention from the education community in recent years. For educators entering this uncharted territory, many theoretical and practical questions concerning AI in education are raised, and issues on AI's technical, pedagogical, administrative and socio-cultural implications are being debated.
Jérôme Bazin, Pascal Dubourg Glatigny, Piotr Piotrowski, "Art beyond Borders: Artistic Exchange in Communist Europe (1945-1989)"
English | 2016 | ISBN: 9633860830 | PDF | pages: 532 | 125.3 mb
This book presents and analyzes artistic interactions both within the Soviet bloc and with the West between 1945 and 1989. During the Cold War the exchange of artistic ideas and products united Europe's avant-garde in a most remarkable way. Despite the Iron Curtain and national and political borders there existed a constant flow of artists, artworks, artistic ideas and practices. The geographic borders of these exchanges have yet to be clearly defined. How were networks, centers, peripheries (local, national and international), scales, and distances constructed? How did (neo)avant-garde tendencies relate with officially sanctioned socialist realism?
