The study of comparative stylistics attempts to catalogue and explain the differences in style between languages. We describe a formal model of comparative syntactic stylistics that could be implemented in a machine translation system, enabling the system to make a more informed decision about possible translation choices and their potential stylistic effects. 1 Stylistic adequacy of translatio...

This paper displays the ideological positioning as found in Rudyard Kipling’s poem If. It is a published 1910. presents embedded ideologies and shows how poet used available linguistic resources to achieve his goal. The models of analysis adopted are Critical Stylistics proposed by Lesley Jeffries (2010) Stylistic Analysis submitted McIntyre (2010). aims at identifying poet’s beliefs show that ...

Speech communication employs a host of expressive means ranging from linguistic to paralinguistic and extralinguistic features. It is the natural language, however, whose systematic variation on all levels of its structure (phonology, morphology, lexicology and syntax) offers the widest possibilities of suiting its use to fit communicative functions of discourses in various contexts. Thus lingu...

Modernist authors such as Virginia Woolf and James Joyce greatly expanded the use of ‘free indirect discourse’, a form of third-person narration that is strongly influenced by the language of a viewpoint character. Unlike traditional approaches to analyzing characterization using common words, such as those based on Burrows (1987), the nature of free indirect discourse and the sparseness of our...

As different kinds of graphical computing devices become more common, there are numerous opportunities for these devices to work together. Multi-device functionality can be enhanced by persistent graphical entities that move seamlessly among the constituent devices. However, when two devices have different graphical capabilities, it may not be possible for both devices to represent an entity in...

With the introduction of programmable graphics pipeline, the highly parallel processing power of graphical processing units (GPU) is being used not only for special graphics effects but also for general purpose computation in areas such as molecular dynamics simulation, stock options pricing, and image processing. In this work, we utilize this power to increase the immersion level in an augment...
