We investigate the performance of non-expert judges in using leading computational poetry evaluation metrics to evaluate poetry written by humans. We find that regardless of the model used, non-expert judges are very poor at using metrics to evaluate creativity, even displaying the reverse of the desired rating pattern, preferring novice poetry to professional poetry. We discuss likely reasons ...

Poetry conventionally is the liberated utterance of the feeling subject, “the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings” (Wordsworth). The computer has taken poetry in several significant directions. With poetry on the page (electronic or otherwise), the computer has emulated human-authored texts. But it has also been used to create more experimental poetries. A further, better known, initiativ...

The distribution of these disorders was not uniform and some disorders, such as Krabbe...

Chinese poetry is the soul of Chinese literature and Chinese culture. A good translation of a Chinese verse can promote the prevalence of Chinese culture. In the translation of Chinese poetry, translators should not only keep the characteristics of Chinese poems, but also embody the English characteristics.

Hegel's view of poetry clarifies the overall role of language in his system and allows him to makes sense of a difficult linguistic issue: how to distinguish between poetry and prose. For Hegel, this distinction is crucial because it illuminates the different ways poetry and prose allow us to understand ourselves as members of an ethical community. In this paper, I argue, using Hegel, that the ...
