    Depression and Gender: The Expression and Experience of Melancholy in the Eighteenth Century

    No full text
    This thesis investigates the life and work of six eighteenth-century writers, two male and four female. It explores their experience of depression through their letters and other autobiographical material, and examines the ways in which they represent melancholy in their poetry and prose. The subject of Chapter Two is Thomas Gray, whose real life persona as the lonely intellectual is also identifiable in his poetry. The Scottish poet Robert Fergusson is studied in Chapter Three. Fergusson’s lively and vigorous mind was shattered in the months leading up to his death, during which time some of his writing became darkly nihilistic. Chapter Four looks at Anne Finch, Countess of Winchilsea, a lifelong depressive who often wrote about her feelings of despair in her poetry. Chapter Five explores Lady Mary Wortley Montagu. She was a courageous and controversial figure, but despite her resilience, on occasion in her letters she reveals her vulnerability and susceptibility to low spirits, a mood which is sometimes expressed in her creative writing. Sarah Scott, whose life and work have not yet been considered in relation to the subject of melancholy, is examined in Chapter Six. Her novel includes several low-spirited and depressed female characters who are continually seeking asylum from a hostile world. Chapter Seven analyses Charlotte Smith, a mother of twelve children whose unhappy marriage ended in separation. Smith wrote extensively about her depression in her letters, prefaces, poetry and novels. This study shows that the women in particular use their writing on melancholy and depression to express their discontent with the confined way in which they are often expected to live out their lives

    ABSTRACT Aphasia is a language disorder caused by brain damage and makes the patient lose or impair language skills. One of the diseases which often cause people to experience aphasia is stroke. The type of aphasia was differentiated by the disruption of the brain's language function. In this study, the researcher observed the Broca-type aphasia, which the location of the disruption in the Broca's area. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of Broca's aphasia on Sarah Scott in the SymphUK YouTube channel. Through the characteristics of Broca's aphasia, the researcher also can observe the levels of language impairment in Sarah Scott as people with Broca's aphasia. Furthermore, the researcher used the qualitative descriptive method because the data are in the form of utterances produce by Sarah Scott in SymphUK YouTube channel as the object of the study. In collecting the data, the researcher watched and transcript the video related to Broca's aphasia's characteristics. The researcher also used the theory proposed by Hallowel (2017) about the characteristics of Broca's aphasia and Ardila (2014) about the linguistics defects in aphasia. The study results showed that there are twenty-six of Sarah Scott's utterances which represented several characteristics of Broca's aphasia. The most dominant characteristics that had by Sarah Scott was dysnomia, literal (phonemic) paraphasia, and agrammatism. Then, the other characteristics that rarely appear are disfluent, repetition, and telegraphic speech. Furthermore, the levels of language-impaired in Sarah Scott are morphemic, morphosyntactic, and phonetic, which have been the same as Ardila (2014) was explained. Thus, the researcher suggests for the following researchers and the lecturer to make this research as the reference for the understanding in the field of language impairment, especially the knowledge of the characteristics of Broca's aphasia.

    The biannual Linecar lecture, established through Howard Linecar’s generous bequest, is delivered by an eminent scholar in a cognate field to numismatics. In her lecture Professor Sarah Scott, Professor of Archaeology and Heritage Hub Director at the University of Leicester, explores the significant role of curiosity, personal connections and collaborations in archaeology in the past, and her work on public engagement in the present. Her lecture opens up new questions to apply to the history of numismatics and suggests potential approaches for outreach and public engagement in our field.</p

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
