Towards a Multifunctional Lexical Resource
What are the principles according to which lexical data should be represented in order to form a lexical database that can serve as a basis for the construction of several different monofunctional dictionaries? Starting from the notion of lexicographic functions as defined by Henning Bergenholtz and Sven Tarp, this question is approached by analysing how current electronic dictionaries and lexical resource models attempt to satisfy the needs of different types of users in different usage situations, in order to identify general requirements on the model for a lexical resource that aims to be “multifunctional” in the above sense. Based on this analysis, this book explores the use of formalisms developed in the context of the semantic web to approach both general and specific lexicographic questions, in particular the representation of multi-word expressions and their properties and relations. In doing so, this book not only addresses several topics which are of relevance to lexicographers and computational linguists alike, but also supports its claims by providing a prototypical implementation of a multifunctional lexical resource using semantic web formalisms.
Behind the Lines
Verlieb dich niemals in einen Hetero-Mann ... Zayne ist ein gefragter Musicaldarsteller am New Yorker Broadway. Schon immer war es sein Traum, in einer Musicalverfilmung mitzu-wirken. Da kommt das Casting in Hollywood wie gerufen. Ausgerechnet an dem Tag, an dem er zu den Auditions muss, werden aufgrund eines Schneesturmes sämtliche Flüge gestrichen. Und als der unverschämte Kerl, der ihm am Flughafen den letzten Mietwagen vor der Nase weggeschnappt hat, in der Jury sitzt, gerät seine Zukunft ins Wanken. Zaynes Gefühle werden auf eine Zerreißprobe gestellt, denn gerade dieser attraktive Bad Boy soll sein Choreograf werden.
Theme in English and German
This book represents a detailed discussion and corpus analysis of Theme in English and German originals and translations. The empirical results are based on thousands of clauses from four different registers, cover a variety of linguistic aspects including multiple Themes, marked Themes, participant roles, agency, and identifiability, and are tested statistically using regression analyses. The book sheds light on one of the most elusive concepts of the systemic functional linguistics framework, Theme, by comparing it with different approaches, related concepts, and realizations in different languages and by examining empirically different Theme models, contrastive differences, and translation effects. Given that Theme in English and German is realized formally by being the first clause constituent and is thus, effectively, a syntactic phenomenon, this monograph is not only relevant for functional linguists, but any interested in English and German word order differences and their effects on translations.
Computer Analysis of Images and Patterns

Ghanavision
Against today's copyrighted-to-the-gills Hollywood movie industry, the wacky world of Ghanian movie posters comes as a joyous relief, with its absolute lack of respect for not only the directors and even stars of Hollywood, but especially the official iconography that accompanies such films. With the arrival of the video cassette in West Africa in the 1980s, a type of mobile movie house was born, typically consisting of a TV, a VCR, an electrical generator and a car, sometimes presenting blockbusters, sometimes underrated and nearly-forgotten movies, most of them Hollywood-produced. To promote these screenings, artists were commissioned to handpaint posters, often with only a few stills to g...
