Book Synopsis A Mathematical Approach to Proportional Representation: Duncan Black on Lewis Carroll by : Iain S. McLean
Download or read book A Mathematical Approach to Proportional Representation: Duncan Black on Lewis Carroll written by Iain S. McLean and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-07 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `This is a book about a well-known writer, Lewis Carroll, and about a little-known subject, the theory of voting' (from the Editors' Introduction). This book has been edited from the manuscripts of the late Scottish economist Duncan Black. Shortly after the publication of The Theory of Committees and Elections Black started to collect material for papers and a book on Lewis Carroll's theory of proportional representation. Black's chapter plans made it clear that the book was to be in three parts, written by himself, followed by a reprint of Carroll's Principles of Parliamentary Representation and its main sources. Part I is biographical, introducing Lewis Carroll and giving relevant details of his life. Part II is Black's already published work on Lewis Carroll. Part III comprises the more detailed arguments about Carroll's reasoning, and Part IV contains reprints of rare original material on proportional representation by Carroll, James Garth Marshall, and Walter Baily. Taken together, the editors have provided a complete reference source for the theory of voting and proportional representation.
Book Synopsis The Mathematical World of Charles L. Dodgson (Lewis Carroll) by : Robin Wilson
Download or read book The Mathematical World of Charles L. Dodgson (Lewis Carroll) written by Robin Wilson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-14 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Lutwidge Dodgson is best known for his 'Alice' books, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, written under his pen name of Lewis Carroll. Yet, whilst lauded for his work in children's fiction and his pioneering work in the world of Victorian photography, his everyday job was a lecturer in Mathematics at Christ Church, Oxford University. The Mathematical World of Charles L. Dodgson (Lewis Carroll) explores the academic background behind this complex individual, outlining his mathematical life, describing his writings in geometry, algebra, logic, the theory of voting, and recreational mathematics, before going on to discuss his mathematical legacy. This is the first academic work that collects the research on Dodgson's wide-ranging mathematical achievements into a single practical volume. Much material appears here for the first time, such as Dodgson's personal letters and drawings, as well as the results of recent investigations into the life and work of Dodgson. Complementing this are many illustrations, both historical and explanatory, as well as a full mathematical bibliography of Dodgson's mathematical publications.

It accidentally started the entire image of Lewis Carroll as a pedophile by deliberately suppressing all the evidence for his sometimes unconventional relationships with women, explaining that some of those women had been little girls… The Victorians had no concept of our modern idea of pedophilia. In fact, a man who loved pre-pubescent girls was considered especially saintly and innocent, and this was why Collingwood over-emphasized this aspect of his uncle's character so much. Charles Lutwidge Dodgson better known by the pseudonym Lewis Carroll (1832 – 1898), was an English author, mathematician, logician, Anglican deacon and photographer.

Book Synopsis The Art of Translation in Light of Bakhtin's Re-accentuation by : Slav Gratchev
Download or read book The Art of Translation in Light of Bakhtin's Re-accentuation written by Slav Gratchev and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2022-10-06 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Mikhail Bakhtin's study of the novel does not focus in any systematic way on the role that translation plays in the processes of novelistic creation and dissemination, when he does broach the topic he grants translation'a disproportionately significant role in the emergence and constitution of literature. The contributors to this volume, from the US, Hong Kong, Finland, Japan, Spain, Italy, Bangladesh, and Belgium, bring their own polyphonic experiences with the theory and practice of translation to the discussion of Bakhtin's ideas about this topic, in order to illuminate their relevance to translation studies today. Broadly stated, the essays examine the art of translation as an exercise in a cultural re-accentuation (a transferal of the original text and its characters to the novel soil of a different language and culture, which inevitably leads to the proliferation of multivalent meanings), and to explore the various re-accentuation devices employed over the span of the last 100 years in translating modern texts from one language to another. Through its contributors, The Art of Translation in Light of Bakhtin's Re-accentuation brings together different cultural contexts and disciplines (such as literature, literary theory, the visual arts, pedagogy, translation studies, and philosophy) to demonstrate the continued international relevance of Bakhtin's ideas to the study of creative practices, broadly understood.
Book Synopsis De Lissel Ehr Erlebnisses Im Wunnderland by : Lewis Carroll
Download or read book De Lissel Ehr Erlebnisses Im Wunnderland written by Lewis Carroll and published by . This book was released on 2013-08 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lewis Carroll ist ein Pseudonym: Charles Lutwidge Dodgson war der wirkliche Name des Autors, und er war Mathematikdozent in Christ Church, Oxford. Dodgson begann seine Erzahlung am 4. Juli 1862, als er zusammen mit Reverend Robinson Duckworth und der zehnjahrigen Alice Liddell, der Tochter des Dekans der Christ Church und ihren beiden Schwestern, Lorina (dreizehn Jahre) und Edith (acht Jahre) auf der Themse eine Bootsfahrt machte. Wie aus dem Gedicht am Anfang des Buches deutlich wird, baten die drei Madchen Dodgson um eine Geschichte, und er begann, zunachst widerstrebend, ihnen die erste Version davon zu erzahlen. Es gibt immer wieder halb versteckte Hinweise darauf im Laufe des gesamten Buches, das 1865 schliesslich veroffentlicht wurde. Pfalzisch ist ein westfrankischer Dialekt des Deutschen, der im Rheintal gesprochen wird, ungefahr in einem Gebiet zwischen den Stadten Zweibrucken, Kaiserslautern, Ludwigshafen, Mannheim, Heidelberg, Speyer, Worth am Rhein, an der Grenze zum Elsass und daruber hinaus. Die Deutschen, die vom siebzehnten bis zum neunzehnten Jahrhundert nach Amerika auswanderten, bewahrten ihre Muttersprache, das Pennsylvania Dutch, das im Wesentlichen aus dem Pfalzischen stammt. Die benutzte Sprache in De Lissel ehr Erlebnisse im Wunnerland" ist eine dialektale Variante des Pfalzischen, genannt Vorderpfalzisch." Genau genommen ist es die Variante, die in Waldsee, dem Heimatdorf des Ubersetzers gesprochen wird. Waldsee ist eine Gemeinde von circa 5000 Einwohnern, zwischen Ludwigshafen im Norden und Speyer im Suden gelegen. -- Lewis Carroll is a pen-name: Charles Lutwidge Dodgson was the author's real name and he was lecturer in Mathematics in Christ Church, Oxford. Dodgson began the story on 4 July 1862, when he took a journey in a rowing boat on the river Thames in Oxford together with the Reverend Robinson Duckworth, with Alice Liddell (ten years of age) the daughter of the Dean of Christ Church, and with her two sisters, Lorina (thirteen years of age), and Edith (eight years of age). As is clear from the poem at the beginning of the book, the three girls asked Dodgson for a story and reluctantly at first he began to tell the first version of the story to them. There are many half-hidden references made to the five of them throughout the text of the book itself, which was published finally in 1865. Palatine German is a West Franconian dialect of German, spoken in the Rhine Valley, roughly in an area between the cities of Zweibrucken, Kaiserslautern, Ludwigshafen, Mannheim, Heidelberg, Speyer, Worth am Rhein, at the border to the Alsace region in France, but also beyond. Germans who immigrated to North America from the seventeenth to the nineteenth centuries chose to maintain their native language Pennsylvania Dutch, which is descended primarily from the Palatine German dialects. The language used in "De Lissel ehr Erlebnisse im Wunnerland" is the dialectal variant of Palatine German called "Vorderpfalzisch." Strictly speaking, it is the variety spoken in the translator's native village Waldsee, a community of some 5,000 inhabitants which lies between Ludwigshafen in the north and Speyer in the south."

Book Synopsis The Bloomsbury Handbook to Literature and Psychoanalysis by : Jeremy Tambling
Download or read book The Bloomsbury Handbook to Literature and Psychoanalysis written by Jeremy Tambling and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-03-09 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing the most comprehensive examination of the two-way traffic between literature and psychoanalysis to date, this handbook looks at how each defines the other as well as addressing the key thinkers in psychoanalytic theory (Freud, Klein, Lacan, and the schools of thought each of these has generated). It examines the debts that these psychoanalytic traditions have to literature, and offers plentiful case-studies of literature's influence from psychoanalysis. Engaging with critical issues such as madness, memory, and colonialism, with reference to texts from authors as diverse as Shakespeare, Goethe, and Virginia Woolf, this collection is admirably broad in its scope and wide-ranging in its geographical coverage. It thinks about the impact of psychoanalysis in a wide variety of literatures as well as in film, and critical and cultural theory.
Book Synopsis Screen Adaptations and the Politics of Childhood by : Robyn McCallum
Download or read book Screen Adaptations and the Politics of Childhood written by Robyn McCallum and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-16 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book features a cutting edge approach to the study of film adaptations of literature for children and young people, and the narratives about childhood those adaptations enact. Historically, film media has always had a partiality for the adaptation of ‘classic’ literary texts for children. As economic and cultural commodities, McCallum points out how such screen adaptations play a crucial role in the cultural reproduction and transformation of childhood and youth, and indeed are a rich resource for the examination of changing cultural values and ideologies, particularly around contested narratives of childhood. The chapters examine various representations of childhood: as shifting states of innocence and wildness, liminality, marginalisation and invisibility. The book focuses on a range of literary and film genres, from ‘classic’ texts, to experimental, carnivalesque, magical realist, and cross-cultural texts.
