DramaBank: Annotating Agency in Narrative Discourse
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe the Story Intention Graph, a set of discourse relations designed to represent aspects of narrative. Compared to prior models, ours is a novel synthesis of the notions of goal, plan, intention, outcome, affect and time that is amenable to corpus annotation. We describe a collection project, DramaBank, which includes encodings of texts ranging from small fables to epic poetry and contemporary nonfiction.

متن کاملA Discourse Analysis of “The Prince and His Companions” in Kelileh and Demneh Based On Semio-Semantics
Despite showing an overtly simple structure, the semantic process in classic literary-narrative discourse conforms to complicated semiotic systems.

Consequently, the narrative discourse in “The...
