color aesthetics and social networks in complete tang poems explorations and discoveries
Pacific Asia Conference on Language Information and Computation, 2015Co-Authors: Hongsu Wang, Wenhuei Cheng, Weiyun ChiuAbstract:The Complete Tang Poems (CTP) is the most important source to study Tang poems. We look into CTP with computational tools from specific linguistic perspectives, including distributional semantics and collocational analysis. From such quantitative viewpoints, we compare the usage of “wind” and “moon” in the poems of Li Bai (李白) and Du Fu (杜甫). Colors in poems function like sounds in movies, and play a crucial role in the imageries of poems. Thus, words for colors are studied, and “白” (bai2, white) is the main focus because it is the most frequent color in CTP. We also explore some cases of using colored words in antithesis(對仗) pairs that were central for fostering the imageries of the poems. CTP also contains useful historical information, and we extract person names in CTP to study the social networks of the Tang Poets. Such information can then be integrated with the China Biographical Database of Harvard University.

szkola rozczarowania w poematach dygresyjnych slowacki musset
Wielogłos, 2010Co-Authors: Magdalena SiwiecAbstract:„SCHOOL OF DISENCHANTMENT” IN THE DIGRESSIVE POEMS: SŁOWACKI – MUSSET The article constitutes a comparative analysis of three Romantic digressive poems: Juliusz Slowacki’s Podroz do Ziemi Świetej z Neapolu and Beniowski (Journey From Naples to the Holy Land) and Alfred de Musset’s Namuna; at all of the poems are presented as an expression of the crisis of the eneration of writers born around the year 1810 and often referred to as ecole du desenchantement. The experience of disappointment and disenchantment with reality, which is characteristic of this generation, becomes transformed here into a loss of faith in the power of one’s own poetry which is associated with the „anxiety of infl uence”. The interpretation of the texts aims at highlighting the means used by the cadet-Poets which are specifi c to Romantic irony and at presenting them as a strategy for dealing with the crisis through turning it into the main topic and transforming it into the subject of poetry.

word use in the poetry of suicidal and nonsuicidal Poets
Psychosomatic Medicine, 2001Co-Authors: Shannon Wiltsey Stirman, James W PennebakerAbstract:OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine whether distinctive features of language could be discerned in the poems of Poets who committed suicide and to test two suicide models by use of a text-analysis program. METHOD Approximately 300 poems from the early, middle, and late periods of nine suicidal Poets and nine nonsuicidal Poets were compared by use of the computer text analysis program, Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count (LIWC). Language use within the poems was analyzed within the context of two suicide models. RESULTS In line with a model of social integration, writings of suicidal Poets contained more words pertaining to the individual self and fewer words pertaining to the collective than did those of nonsuicidal Poets. In addition, the direction of effects for words pertaining to communication was consistent with the social integration model of suicide. CONCLUSIONS The study found support for a model that suggests that suicidal individuals are detached from others and are preoccupied with self. Furthermore, the findings suggest that linguistic predictors of suicide can be discerned through text analysis.
