Book Synopsis Translation as Scholarship by : Jay Crisostomo
Download or read book Translation as Scholarship written by Jay Crisostomo and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-01-14 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first half of the 2d millennium BCE, translation occasionally depicted semantically incongruous correspondences. Such cases reflect ancient scribes substantiating their virtuosity with cuneiform writing by capitalizing on phonologic, graphemic, semantic, and other resemblances in the interlingual space. These scholar–scribes employed an essential scribal practice, analogical hermeneutics, an interpretative activity grounded in analogical reasoning and empowered by the potentiality of the cuneiform script. Scribal education systematized such practices, allowing scribes to utilize these habits in copying compositions and creating translations. In scribal education, analogical hermeneutics is exemplified in the word list "Izi", both in its structure and in its occasional bilingualism. By examining "Izi" as a product of the social field of scribal education, this book argues that scribes used analogical hermeneutics to cultivate their craft and establish themselves as knowledgeable scribes. Within a linguistic epistemology of cuneiform scribal culture, translation is a tool in the hands of a knowledgeable scholar.
Book Synopsis Technology Acceptance in the Context of Digital Transformation by : David Marz
Download or read book Technology Acceptance in the Context of Digital Transformation written by David Marz and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2021-02-03 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The widespread diffusion of digital, connected objects such as smartphones or tablets as well as the increasing integration of computing and connectivity capabilities into everyday artifacts like TVs and cars have significantly changed individual behavior in recent decades: it has become the norm to interact with technology and to be connected with online resources regardless of time and place. Social interactions have increasingly become intertwined with technology, making it almost impossible to fully participate in everyday life activities without IT. As a final example, with the integration of network connectivity, digital technologies, products, and services are not used in isolation anymore, but working together as assemblages, thereby expanding the range of what they and their users can do. Overall, we have witnessed that IT has become deeply socially embedded in everyday life and routines. Understanding individual behavior has a long tradition in information systems research. However, given the fundamental changes in recent years related to technology use, it is questionable whether traditional models and theories are still applicable in the digital age. The goal of this dissertation is to address respective shortcomings. As a first step, a comprehensive review of the literature on digital transformation is performed for a better understanding of this phenomenon surrounding the changes we have witnessed regarding individual behavior. Afterwards, new concepts to explain and measure individual behavior and expectations related to connected objects are developed and examined. Furthermore, as the topic of connected objects is closely connected to the concept of personalization, a design study is performed that 1) provides an artifact to handle the efficiency-personalization trade-off in the provision of firm offerings and 2) illustrates how personalization influences the user perceptions of respective products and services. Based on the findings, a framework for the study of connected objects is synthesized and presented. Overall, the findings of this dissertation have relevant implications for research and practice in the fields of technology acceptance, digital life, and digital transformation.

Book Synopsis Educational Research: Proofs, Arguments, and Other Reasonings by : Paul Smeyers
Download or read book Educational Research: Proofs, Arguments, and Other Reasonings written by Paul Smeyers and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-10-08 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the language of educational research as well as on the language of education. It conceives both as social practices and investigates how rhetoric plays a part in the complex process of historically situated argumentation. The book aims to answer such questions as: ‘What is the nature of the arguments and the kinds of sources one relies on?’ and ‘What kind of reasoning is offered to convince practitioners?’ Taking postmodern criticism seriously, the contributors argue that the scholar or researcher cannot indulge in relativism or be satisfied with a description of particular cases. Instead, theoreticians as well as practitioners have to engage in sound thinking and dialogue. The chapters in this volume highlight relevant characteristics of the language of educational research. In addition, attention is paid to the language of particular debates which figure prominently in the wider educational context, such as the language of goals, of parenting, citizenship and capability.

Book Synopsis Gender Equality in Context by : Brigitte Liebig
Download or read book Gender Equality in Context written by Brigitte Liebig and published by Barbara Budrich. This book was released on 2016-01-18 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender Equality has not yet been achieved in many western countries. Switzerland in particular has failed as a forerunner in integrating women in politics and economy. Taking Switzerland as a case study, the authors critically reflect the state of gender equality in different policy areas such as education, family and labour. The collection of articles reveals how gender policies and cultural contexts interact with social practices of gender (in)equality. They also outline the gender(ed) effects of recent changes and reform strategies for scientists, politicians and practitioners.

Book Synopsis Valid Values by : Claudia Mariéle Wulf
Download or read book Valid Values written by Claudia Mariéle Wulf and published by LIT Verlag. This book was released on 2023-06-06 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a challenge to talk about values and a provocation to call them "valid". But it is necessary when human dignity is at stake. Freedom, love, truth and life determine and protect this dignity. The highest value is life; when it is threatened, one loses the experience of dignity. Mere autonomy going beyond value-oriented freedom can threaten life, physically and psychologically. If we do not respect our livelihoods, we threaten them. Genuine love of one's neighbour prevents tolerance from turning into populist, intolerant ideologies. Dignity as the standard for our coexistence gives rise to hope. Therefore, this book invites us to think, feel and act responsibly for a life in fullness (John 10:10).

Book Synopsis Religion und Integration im Moskauer Russland by : Ludwig Steindorff
Download or read book Religion und Integration im Moskauer Russland written by Ludwig Steindorff and published by Otto Harrassowitz Verlag. This book was released on 2010 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wie im gesamten mittelalterlichen und frühneuzeitlichen Europa fiel der Religion auch im Moskauer Reich eine Schlüsselrolle bei der Legitimation von Herrschaft und Integration der Gesellschaft zu. Die Vereinheitlichung der Lebensformen auf der Grundlage orthodoxer Kirchlichkeit war ein Bindeglied für die meisten Gebiete des Reiches. Doch konnte religiöser Dissens die Integration auch fallweise in Frage stellen? Wie weit ging die Kommunikation über die religiösen Grenzen hinweg? Waren doch im Moskauer Reich neben der Orthodoxie auch andere christliche Konfessionen, Islam und Naturreligionen präsent? In welchem Verhältnis standen die protonationalen Integrationspraktiken der russischen Orthodoxie zu den Anliegen imperialer Herrschaft? Lässt sich beim Vergleich mit Westeuropa von 'Gleichzeitigkeit des Ungleichzeitigen' mit Bezug auf Phänomene der religiösen Praxis sprechen? Können wir das Konfessionalisierungsparadigma auf die Geschichte des Moskauer Reiches übertragen? Autorinnen und Autoren aus Russland, Deutschland, den USA, Frankreich und Finnland geben hierzu Antworten. Der von Ludwig Steindorff herausgegebene Sammelband ist aus der X. Internationalen Konferenz zur altrussischen Geschichte her vorgegangen, die 2008 in Kiel stattfand.
Book Synopsis On the Design of Service Interaction with Conversational Agents by : Johannes Riquel
Download or read book On the Design of Service Interaction with Conversational Agents written by Johannes Riquel and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2022-07-19 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conversational Agents (CAs) are changing the way people interact in their daily lives. Specifically, CAs such as chatbots or voice assistants are increasingly covering services traditionally provided by human employees. CA-based services are available at any time and in any capacity, providing convenience and comfort while overcoming the limitations of human employees. However, many CAs are imperfect and prone to errors, such as frequently misinterpreting users’ requests, which leads to a mismatch between the expectations of the service and the service provided. As a result, some CA-based services have been discontinued in the past. In this context, a human-like design of CAs potentially offers a valuable approach to enhancing the user’s perception of a service. Prior research shows that this leads to individuals interacting with a human-like CA as if they would interact with a real individual. Furthermore, human-like errors could be considered a social cue, since it is human nature to make errors. To address the overall research area of CAs imperfections, four studies were conducted and synthesized in this dissertation. The studies provide novel insights into the design of human-like text-based CAs interrelated with the occurrence of CA imperfections, including human-like errors. Through a set of experiments, four major contributions are provided. First, the human-like design of imperfect CAs can mitigate the negative individuals’ perceptions, if implemented carefully. Second, the human-like design of imperfect CAs can shift individuals into a positive emotional state which increases service satisfaction. Third, human-like errors are not perceived as human-like and should not be employed in CA-based service encounters at present. Fourth, not every CA-based service requires a high level of human-like design, as the expectations of a CA-based service may be as different as the expectations of traditional human-based services.
