    Hyperauthorship in Mikhail Bakhtin: The Primary Author and Conceptual Personae

    No full text
    This article explores the phemenon of hyperauthorship in intellectual writing: a primary author (hyperauthor) creates a number of secondary authors (hypoauthors), and develops possible conceptual systems on their behalf. The case under consideration is Mikhail Bakhtin and his complex relationship with his friends Pavel Medvedev and Valentin Voloshinov, members of the so called "Bakhtin's circle" (in the 1920s) who are credited with authorship of several books which may have been actually written by Bakhtin himself. Still unclear from biographical and historical perspectives, this problem of authentic attribution of Medvedev's and Voloshinov's texts can be clarified in the theoretical framework of "hyperauthorship" and "possibilistic thinking." This article applies Bakhtin's own theory of the "primary author immersed in silence," as well as Deleuze and Guattari's notion of "conceptual personae," to explain this case of "shared," or "transferred" authorship. The figures of Voloshinov and Medvedev, though historically real, may be viewed as Bakhtin's projections of "ideal," or "utopian" Marxism in linguistics and literary theory

    FIGURE 5. The consensus tree (50% majority rule) of 10,000 pooled trees from two independent Bayesian analyses of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene (1141bp without insertions or deletions) from 12 zoarcid and one outgroup species. Tree and unlinked partitions (first, second and third codon positions) were set. Neighbor-joining analysis was consistent with this phylogram in the order of whole branches. Numbers at the internal branches indicate Bayesian posterior probabilities (PP) and those in parentheses show Bootstrap values (BS: 10,000 replicates); 1.0 PP and/or 100% BS are indicated by a small open circle.Published as part of Nazarkin, Mikhail V., Shinohara, Gento & Shirai, Shigeru M., 2014, Phylogeny and taxonomy of Petroschmidtia teraoi (Katayama, 1943) (Osteichthyes: Perciformes: Zoarcidae), pp. 171-193 in Zootaxa 3780 (1) on page 177, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3780.1.7, http://zenodo.org/record/22711

    What are the implications of Curriculum Learning strategy on IRL methods?: Investigating Inverse Reinforcement Learning from Human Behavior

    No full text
    Inverse Reinforcement Learning (IRL) is a subfield of Reinforcement Learning (RL) that focuses on recovering the reward function using expert demonstrations. In the field of IRL, Adversarial IRL (AIRL) is a promising algorithm that is postulated to recover non-linear rewards in environments with unknown dynamics. This study investigates the potential benefits of applying the Curriculum Learning (CL) strategy to the AIRL algorithm. For our experiments, we use a randomized partially observable Markov decision process in the form of a grid-world-like environment. Using only expert demonstrations obtained with an RL algorithm under the true reward function, we train AIRL in a variety of configurations and identify an effective curriculum. Our results show, that a well-constructed curriculum can enhance the performance of AIRL twofold in both key aspects: the speed of convergence and the efficiency of using expert demonstrations. We thus conclude that CL can be a useful addition to an AIRL-based solution.

    Author: Ekimov Mikhail Title of the Publication: The importance of marketing in the music industry Degree Title: Bachelor of International Business Keywords: Marketing, music industry, metal music, Behemoth This thesis is a study, analysis, and development of marketing campaigns for aspiring musicians The thesis will begin with a theory that includes the basic concepts, features, and concepts of marketing in the music industry. Next, the stages of the marketing campaigns of the successful band Behemoth will be reviewed and analyzed. Based on this analysis, it will be possible to under-stand exactly what actions made the band Behemoth successful. Next, a marketing strategy will be created for a budding and not very popular band, The Nomad. For this purpose, the musician of this band will be interviewed, on the basis of which the main marketing problems of the band and the direction of new strategies will be revealed. At the end of the work the main marketing cam-paigns for the development of the marketing strategy of the band at this stage will be made and their effectiveness will be evaluated. The main goal: to develop marketing strategies for aspiring music groups in the music industry. The main tasks: Learn the concepts, principles, and functions of marketing in the music industry and how to use them to create own marketing strategies

    Muriel Spark as auto-biographer in <i>Curriculum</i> <i>Vitae</i>

    Get PDF
    Examining Muriel Spark's main aims as an auto-biographer in her work Curriculum Vitae brings important resources in the exploration of the genre of autobiographical writing. This with the theoretical engagement, allows consideration of the critical issues surrounding the roles of author and reader in the construction of the literary self. Spark demands the reader participate in the constructon of textual meaning; overturning the conventions of autobiography, satirising its claims to omniscience and highlighting the impossibility of an authentic voice with regard to the self

    To Act and Learn: A Bakhtinian Exploration of Action Learning

    Get PDF
    This paper considers the work of the Russian social philosopher and cultural theorist, Mikhail Mikhailovich Bakhtin as a source of understanding for those involved in action learning. Drawing upon data gathered over two years during the evaluation of 20 action learning sets in the north of England, we will seek to work with the ideas of Bakhtin to consider their value for those involved in action learning. We consider key Bakhtin features such as Making Meaning, Participative Thinking, Theoreticism and Presence, Others and Outsideness, Voices and Carnival to highlight how Bakhtin's can enhance our understanding of the nature of action and learning
