Automatic Identification of Literary Characters

To distant read literature as a whole, one needs to have automatic programs that identify and characterize literary characters, and harvest their gender, their profession and/or social status, and how they are called. This was the goal of DIP (Desafio de Identificação de Personagens - Character identification challenge).

Time and place: Nov. 21, 2022 12:15 PM – 5:00 PM, PAM 10-11

In this workshop, we will present briefly the goal of DIP, the setup, the resources manually created to evaluate the results, and what we can say about lusophone literature so far in this respect.

We will then have an invited lecture by Eckhard Bick, who will talk about "Automatic Cast Extraction from Portuguese and Brazilian Literature" and will report how his system solved the task proposed by DIP.

Although the challenge dealt solely with Brazilian and Portuguese literature, we sincerely believe DIP to be of interest for both linguists and literary scholars dealing with other languages in ILOS, and this is why we have this first part of the DIP workshop in English.

The second part, until 17h, will be in Portuguese. See full program here.

Eckhard Bick is a German-born linguist who works as a researcher in computational linguistics at the University of Southern Denmark, where he is a research professor at the Institute of Language and Communication. He has written computational grammars and lexica for most Germanic and Romance languages and is a leading expert in the area of Constraint Grammar, with numerous publications within the area of Corpus Linguistics and Natural Language Processing. Current research interests include semantic corpus annotation, hate speech in social media and rule-base proofing tools.

The Atlantic Alliance per 2022

Roundtable seminar on US-UK collaboration in the arming of Ukraine.

Time and place: Sep. 1, 2022 10:15 AM – 12:00 PM, Room 1004, Lucy Smith hus,

About the seminar
The present war in Ukraine has seen the US and the UK emerge as prominent supporters of the Ukrainian war-effort, both in a moral sense and through the supply of arms.

Such cross-Atlantic collaboration is by no means new, but to what extent can the current situation be said to be in line with, or deviate from previous US-UK cooperation? What is new, and not so new and what might be the implications for the future?

In this seminar we will address these questions through the format of a roundtable debate where each of the three panelists will give a 10-minute presentation first, followed by a discussion and then questions from the audience.

Animalities: An International Symposium

Thinking about animals and humans as animals.

Time and place: Nov. 17, 2014 9:00 AM–Nov. 18, 2014 4:00 PM, Niels Treschows hus,

What do the Ice Age animated films have to do with French philosopher Jacques Derrida's thinking about animals? How can writers as diverse as Wallace Stevens, Terry Tempest Williams, and Amitav Ghosh reveal important assumptions people have not only about animals but also about humans as animals? Why should we care about literary dogs in the work of writers such as Mark Doty, J.R. Ackerly, or two women known as "Michael Field"? What is the significance of contemporary artistic representations of human-animal hybrids or a tiger from the Baghdad zoo killed in a play by Rajiv Joseph?

This symposium explores questions like these, while also illustrating why representations of animals and human animality in literature and film should continue to be studied in exciting new ways.

Conference: Gaspara Stampa and Renaissance Literature

In the wake of the new interest in Stampa’s poetry among European and American scholars, we invite you to this mini-conference: Rethinking Gaspara Stampa in the Canon of Renaissance Literature.

Time and place: Mar. 13, 2013 3:00 PM–6:00 PM, Helga Engs Hus, Auditorium 3

Gaspara Stampa, an italian poet of the Renaissance.

Gaspara Stampa (1523–1554), considered one of the greatest and most creative poets of the Italian Renaissance, was celebrated in her own time as the new Sappho who renewed the female voice as both a singer and a poet. Despite her young age – she died when she was only 31 years old – her Rime is not only the most extensive collection of poetry written by a woman in the Renaissance, but also one of the largest and most varied canzonieri in Italian literature. For many centuries she was almost forgotten, even though she appeared as a figure in romantic novels, and remembered by poets such as Rainer Maria Rilke.This conference reflects a new scholarly interest in her work.

Conference Language: English. No conference fees. Light refreshments will be served.

Moderator: Gro Bjørnerud Mo, Professor of French Literature, University of Oslo.

Program

Aileen A. Feng, Assistant Professor of Italian, University of Arizona “Desiring Subjects: Mimetic Desire and Female Jealousy in Stampa’s Rime”.
Anders Cullhed, Professor of Comparative Literature, Stockholm University “’Phaeton, Icarus, and me’: Gaspara Stampa, Rime 8”.
Johanna Värnquist, PhD-student in Comparative Literature, Linköping University “‘Holy angels, I don’t envy you one bit’: Stampa, Ficino, and Renaissance Platonism”.

Challenging Clitics

Location: University of Oslo, NT 12

Date: October 27th–28th 2011

Call for papers

The publication of Richard Kayne’s 1975 monograph on French syntax initiated a lot of research on French but also on more general theoretical issues. The book defines five tests of clitichood: a clitic may never be modified, stressed, separated from its host, and lastly, clitic clusters always have a fixed word order. Over the years clitics have come to play a central role in linguistics. Within diachronic syntax, for example, clitics are thought to represent an intermediary stage between a full lexical item and an inflexional affix.

There is however evidence that Kayne’s tests of clitichood should be challenged. In African French, clitics may be stressed, and in the history of Italian, the internal position of clitics has changed. It is also necessary to modify the basically Romance conception of clitics: Clitics in the Germanic languages are not primarily pronouns, and their host is not necessarily a verb. These facts raise some questions: What kind of words may cliticise? What kind of word may clitics cliticise to? Is there cross-linguistic evidence that suggests a different way of defining clitics than the five tests provided by Kayne?

The workshop welcomes papers addressing these questions as well as other questions related to the nature of clitics. The presentation should be no longer than 20 minutes, leaving 10 minutes for questions and discussion.

Abstracts are not to exceed two pages, including examples and references. The abstract should have a clear title but should not identify the author(s). The anonymous abstract should be attached to a mail with personal information (name and affiliation) and sent to the following e-mail address: clitics-workshop@ilos.uio.no.

Submissions are due by August 20 and notifications will be sent out by September 20.

The workshop aims at publishing selected papers.

Workshop: Language – Nation – Identity

Language – Nation – Identity: the “questione della lingua” in an Italian and non-Italian context

Time and place: Sep. 29, 2011 9:00 AM–Sep. 30, 2011 4:00 PM, UiO, NT hus, 12th floor

In 2011 Italy is celebrating 150 years of Unification. (Jump to Workshop Program)

This is a very important date not only for the history of the Italian State but also for the history of the Italian language.

The debates on an Italian standard language that is accessible to everyone (“questione della lingua”) began in the 13th century with Dante and his “De vulgari eloquentia” and have continued for almost seven centuries.

The political unification (in 1861) marked a new phase in the discussion on the language: did it amount to a victory of standard Italian and the defeat of all other languages present on the territory of the new Italian state, was it a fortuitous coexistance of different languages?

Is the language one of the main parts of national identity? - This is the crucial question we would like to explore.
What kind of relationship can there be between political and linguistic unification? What was the process in other countries?
Does a strong centralized state actually need to have one language?
Can a language actually unify a nation?
What is happening nowadays, as the migration process seems to be leading us towards plurilingualism?

These are the questions that we will put to the workshop participants.

The discussion will be developed from two perspectives: diachronically, we will describe the creation of a standard language and its role in the political centralization and unification; on the other hand, synchronically, we will analyse the situation in a modern society where two opposing tendencies coexist.

On the one hand, the aspiration to integrate in a new society and/or to be a world citizen impels us to use one standard language, while on the other, the desire to conserve a distinct identity and to ensure the survival of the small languages explains the opposite movement.

We think that the topic of the workshop will be interesting not only for specialists but also for the general public concerned with problems of identity and nation.

We also see the workshop as a step towards future research onthese issues.

Final Conference: "Meaning and Understanding across Languages"

The project group the Centre for Advanced Study invites to their concluding conference: "Discourse Representation, Comprehension and Production in a Cross-linguistic Perspective".

Time and place: June 6, 2011 9:00 AM–June 8, 2011 12:00 PM, The Centre for Advanced Study (CAS), Drammensveien 78

Illustration: Some of the reasearchers in the group Meaning and Understanding across Languages.

20 researchers from various fields and disciplines have been working together since last summer in their quest to answers a few very basic question on how language works and give meaning.

The mysteries of language

Our understanding of how we construe meaning in and through language is still unclear.

We do not have a clear picture of how we encode complex thoughts into linguistic signals and how we interpret such signals in appropriate ways.

The project group have been aiming to develop a theory about the relationship between language and meaning, taking systematic account of the role of context.

The group have been studying grammatical features of our mother tongue that seems to affect how we perceive and categorize reality, and looked into how our mother tongue affects the way we interpret foreign language texts.

1: Corpus-based contrastive analysis

Workshop organised by Karin Aijmer, Gothenburg University, and Bengt Altenberg, Lund University

In 1993, at ICAME 14 in Zürich, Stig Johansson presented a corpus-based project that was to begin a new era in contrastive linguistics and translation studies. Using a computer corpus of comparable English and Norwegian texts and their translations into the other language, he and his team created a fruitful empirical basis for comparing the systems and use of the two languages from lexis to discourse. Since then, the idea of using bilingual or multilingual translation corpora (together with comparable corpora of original texts for control purposes) has spread and a number of researchers are now using this approach to compare different sets of languages and to develop methodologies for various practical applications offered by the corpora, e.g. in language teaching, lexicography, machine-aided translation, and automatic lexicon extraction.

The purpose of the workshop is to bring together researchers involved in the use of bilingual or multilingual corpora for various purposes, theoretical or practical, to exchange views and experiences and, not least, to get to know each other.

The workshop programme will consist of paper presentations. The deadline for submitting abstracts for this workshop was 1 February.

2: Do we still need language corpora?

Debate organised by Martin Wynne and Ylva Berglund Prytz, University of Oxford

Language corpora were originally developed as datasets for linguistic research, in a world where researchers rarely had access to machine-readable language data. Pioneers such as Stig Johansson provided an invaluable service and helped to create a new paradigm in linguistic research. Corpus linguistics subsequently developed sets of procedures and methodologies based on discrete, bounded datasets, created to represent certain types of language use, and studied as exemplars of that domain. The growth of the field and advances in technology mean that corpora have become bigger and more plentiful and various, with huge reference corpora for a vast range of languages and time periods, and numerous specialist corpora representing a wide range of language varieties.

Nowadays, the enormous wealth of digital language data at our fingertips brings the role of the corpus into question. Large-scale digitization projects are delivering the writings of the past to our desktops in ways that allow us to configure ad hoc, bespoke datasets to help address our research questions. Much current language data is 'born digital', often a form of computer-mediated communication, and is easily captured and shared. Books and newspapers are published in electronic form, and made available in large collections. Online tools allow us to search for texts, collect them in virtual corpora. The boundaries between the corpus and other ad hoc datasets is blurring. What is the case for the carefully crafted corpus today?

The session will be a formal debate, with two speakers for and two against the motion, questions from the floor, and a summing up by the speakers, ending with a vote by the audience. The motion will be:

"Language corpora are no longer necessary for linguistic research."

Participants in the ICAME conference are warmly encouraged to come along and participate in what promises to be an entertaining debate on the key question confronting corpus linguistics today. Speakers to be announced.

Time and place: The workshop will be held in the afternoon between 14.00 and 16.00 on Wednesday 1 June at the conference hotel and main venue, the Clarion Royal Christiania Hotel, located in Oslo city centre. After the workshop, the conference proper will start at 17.00 with the opening plenary in the Old Ceremonial Theatre of the University of Oslo (also in the city centre).

3. From Multigenre to Register-specific Historal Corpora

Workshop organised by Merja Kytö, Uppsala University, and Irma Taavitsainen, University of Helsinki

The aim of the workshop is to give up-to-date information about new developments and current trends in the versatile field of historical corpora. Register- and genre-specific corpora are often created to answer specific research questions, but they can be used for other research tasks and combined for a more comprehensive picture. Assessments of linguistic features across such databases show interesting distributions and can cast new light on core issues of historical linguistics.

Corpus parade will contain several 10-15 minute presentations on newly-compiled historical corpora by members of corpus compilation teams.

Speakers

Merja Kytö and Irma Taavitsainen
Correspondence Arja Nurmi and Marina Dossena
Medical/ scientific writing Jukka Tyrkkö
Religious writing Thomas Kohnen and Tanja Rütten
Newspaper corpus Erik Smitterberg
English/Swedish drama Linnéa Anglemark
Panel discussion. Speakers of the Parade and other compilers of historical corpora will answer questions from the audience. The discussion will focus on issues common to historical corpora and their future developments.
An empirical study on the yield of various historical corpora:
- Douglas Biber: “Being specific about historical change: The influence of sub-register” In my talk I will first discuss the importance of register for describing change in general: changes do not apply to the ‘whole’ language. I will then take two case studies illustrative of 20th-century change. One deals with news reportage, the other with academic prose, comparing patterns of change in science/medical research articles, non-science research articles, and ‘popular’ science articles.

Multidisciplinary Approaches to Discourse 2008 (MAD 08)

The Department of Literature, Area Studies and European Languages, University of Oslo, is pleased to announce the 7th International Workshop on Multidisciplinary Approaches to Discourse 2008 (MAD 08): Linearisation and Segmentation in Discourse.

February 20-23, 2008, Lysebu, Oslo, Norway

Multidisciplinary Approaches to Discourse 2008 (MAD 08) is the seventh in a series of small-scale, high-quality workshops that have been organised (approx.) every second year since 1995. Its aim is to bring together researchers from different linguistic disciplines to exchange information and learn from each other on a common topic of investigation. The theme of MAD 08 is Linearisation and Segmentation in Discourse.

Call for papers

Language as well as other forms of communication are inseparably tied to some kind of linear-sequential form of presentation, due to the linear-sequential nature of the media on which they operate. Linearisation in its turn presupposes segmentation, i.e. decisions concerning the size and type of units to be brought into a sequential order at various levels. In written and spoken language, for example, it has to be decided whether a piece of information can and should be realised as a word, a phrase, a clause, a (complex) sentence or even as a sentence sequence or paragraph.

And the relevant units have to be arranged in a certain order that is determined - in part, at least - by the rules of grammar but also – at higher levels of discourse – by other principles. We are interested in identifying and defining such principles. What principles govern the segmentation of the information to be (explicitly) conveyed? What do the minimal discourse units look like, which kinds of complex structure do they build and how are these structures separated from each other?

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers from different linguistic disciplines (e.g., psycholinguistics, contrastive linguistics/translation studies, computational linguistics, discourse studies), and, if possible, also from other disciplines in which the linearisation and segmentation of 'content' or information is constitutive (e.g., in music or film). We invite contributions on topics and questions such as the following (the list may be extended):

Discourse units and segmentation:

Which are the (minimal) units of discourse, and how are they marked and separated from each other? For example, which role does punctuation play in written discourse, and pauses and intonation in spoken language?
Linearisation and its relation to nonlinear linguistic and conceptual structures:
How are linear sequences of discourse units mapped onto complex (potentially hierarchical) conceptual structures? (Perception perspective)
How are complex (potentially hierarchical) conceptual structures mapped onto linear sequences of discourse units? (Production perspective)
How do notions like salience, discourse prominence, foreground(ing)/background(ing) etc. relate to linearity?
Cohesion / coherence and linearity

Perspective and linearisation:

Perspective and subjectivity in discourse: How is information presented and what is the role of relations “in the world” relative to the order of presentation by the speaker?
How do the linguistic notions of perspective relate to perspective in other media?
Linearisation and segmentation across languages:

To what extend do (the grammars of) different languages impose different constraints on linearisation and segmentation?
What are the implications for multilingual activities such as translation or multilingual text generation?
Linearisation and segmentation in different media:
- in electronic media such as e-mail and chat
- in media combining language and pictures, e.g., film, cartoons
- in music (with and without language)

Keynote speakers

Thomas Pechmann (Univ. of Leipzig) on Linearisation and segmentation in music and language
Russell S. Tomlin (Univ. of Oregon) on Attention and time: temporal phasing in event representations and language production (preliminary title)
Cathrine Fabricius-Hansen (Univ. of Oslo) on Segmentation and linearisation from a cross-linguistic perspective (preliminary title)

Workshop location

The workshop and lodging will be at Lysebu, a conference center in the middle of one of Oslo's major skiing areas (for cross-country as well as down-hill) which is accessible by public transport (more information under location).

Attendance

Following the tradition of the earlier workshops, the total number of participants will be limited to (approx.) 30 persons. Speakers of accepted papers are automatically granted a place; the remaining ones are assigned on a first-come-first-serve basis.

Abstract submission

We invite extended abstracts in PDF, RTF or Word format. Abstracts must not be longer than ten pages (including figures and references), using 12 pt font, 1.5 line spacing, with 2.5 cm margins on all sides. Please include your name, affiliation and e-mail address at the top of the page, directly below the title. All abstracts will be reviewed by members of the program committee. For final versions of accepted abstracts, precise formatting instructions (for Word) will be issued.

With previous workshops in the series, selected papers have later been published in special issues of journals or as an edited volume in a relevant series (e.g., for the 2005 workshop: M. Grabski et al. (eds.) Salience. Multidisciplinary perspectives on its function in discourse, to appear in the Mouton-de Gruyter series 'Trends in Linguistics. Studies and Monographs' [TiLSM]). We are planning on following this approach for MAD 08 as well.
