Syntax Over Time
This book provides a critical investigation of syntactic change and the factors that influence it. Converging empirical and theoretical considerations have suggested that apparent instances of syntactic change may be attributable to factors outside syntax proper, such as morphology or information structure. Some even go so far as to propose that there is no such thing as syntactic change, and that all such change in fact takes place in the lexicon or in the phonological component. In this volume, international scholars examine these proposals, drawing on detailed case studies from Germanic, Romance, Chinese, Egyptian, Finnic, Hungarian, and Sami. They aim to answer such questions as: Can syn...
Control and Restructuring
This book uses data from English, Mandarin Chinese, and Modern Greek to develop a new theory of control structures that relates them to restructuring and the semantics of the embedding verb. The theory has implications both for clausal structure and for the relationship between form and meaning in natural language.
Grenzenlose Gewalt
Die Europäische Union hat, zehn Jahre nachdem dem Staatenbund für den »erfolgreichen Kampf für Frieden und Menschenrechte« der Friedensnobelpreis verliehen wurde, mit seinem brutalen Vorgehen gegen schutzsuchende Menschen auf der Flucht die tödlichste Grenze der Welt geschaffen, das Mittelmeer zum Massengrab gemacht. Es ist die Aufkündigung der vielbeschworenen »europäischen Werte«, die zivilisatorische Kapitulation vor einer der zentralen Herausforderungen des 21. Jahrhunderts, in dem so viele Menschen wie nie zuvor auf der Flucht sind – vor Krieg, Verfolgung, Hunger und Klimawandel. Das Buch des Autorinnenkollektivs »mEUterei« bilanziert minutiös die Systematik der tagtäglichen Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit, orchestriert von Brüsseler Schreibtischen aus und exekutiert von hochgerüsteten Grenzwächtern. So gerät es zur Anklageschrift gegen die Friedensnobelpreisträgerin EU.
Charge Sensitivity Approach To Electronic Structure And Chemical Reactivity
Charge Sensitivity Analysis (CSA) represents a linear response treatment of molecular systems, based upon the chemical potential and hardness/softness concepts established within density functional theory (DFT). Recently, it has been shown to provide an attractive framework leading to novel approaches to chemical reactivity of open systems. The monograph presents the conceptual and methodological basis of the CSA covering its DFT roots, alternative resolutions and representations, sensitivities of closed and open atomic and molecular systems, charge stability criteria and relaxational effects due to the system environment, and alternative collective modes of charge redistribution. The CSA in...
The Art of the Genoese Colonies of the Black Sea Basin (1261-1475)
Rafał Quirini-Popławski offers here the first panorama of the artistic phenomena of the Genoese outposts scattered around the Black Sea, an area whose cultural history is little known. The artistic creativity of the region emerges as extraordinarily rich and colorful, with a variety of heterogeneous, hybrid and intermingled characteristics. The book questions the extent to which the descriptor "Genoese" can be applied to the settlements’ artistic production; Quirini-Popławski demonstrates that, despite entrenched views of these colonies as centres of Italian and Latin culture, it was in fact Greek and Armenian art that was of greater importance.
Here All Is Poland
On 10 April 2010, Polish President Lech Kaczyński and First Lady Maria Kaczyńska were killed in an airplane crash outside the city of Smolensk in western Russia, where they were flying to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Soviet massacre of over twenty-one thousand Polish prisoners during the Second World War. Eight days later, the president and his wife were laid to rest beneath the Krakow Cathedral on Wawel Hill, an ancient necropolis of Polish kings and queens and the most prestigious burial site in all of Poland, where only six other meritorious, non-royal national figures have been enshrined since the demise of the Polish monarchy in the late eighteenth century. The decision to ...
Information Technologies in Biomedicine
Information Technology in Biomedicine is an interdisciplinary research area, that bridges the gap between tethodological achievements in engineering and clinical requirements in medical diagnosis and therapy. In this book, members of the academic society of technical and medical background present their research results and clinical implementation in order to satisfy the functional requirements of authorized physicians for the benefit of the patients. An extended area is covered by the articles. It includes biomedical signals, medical image processing, computer-aided diagnosis and surgery, biometrics, healthcare and telemedicine, biomechanics, biomaterials, bioinformatics. Section on bronchoscopy presents the basis as well as new research studies performed in this field. Papers present various theoretical approaches and new methodologies based on fuzzy sets, mathematical statistics, mathematical morphology, fractals, wavelets, syntactic methods, artificial neural networks, graphs and many others.
Trust
This is a story about Saint Faustina - the greatest Christian mystic of the twentieth century - and her devotion to the Divine Mercy, which has become the fastest spreading religious devotion in the world. This lavishly illustrated book is essentially a love story about God’s immense love for his people and the reciprocation of this love by the humble Polish nun declared a saint by Pope John Paul II. In fulfilling the mission entrusted to her, Sister Faustina met with many obstacles, but she came through all her trials victoriously. The power of her message about God’s infinite mercy, forged in the fire of adversity, has accomplished seemingly impossible things. Although coming from the ...
