The session revolves around syntax of suspense and creation of suspensive sentences. We explore the notion of phatic expressions and move on to cover delay tactics in writing suspensive texts.
This document discusses narrative theories proposed by Barthes and Cameron. It outlines Barthes' 5 code theory which describes different codes that provide meaning and advance narratives, such as the hermeneutic code involving clues and the proairetic code involving actions. It also discusses Cameron's modular narratives, describing techniques like anachronic narratives using flashbacks, forking paths showing alternative stories, and episodic narratives connecting separate stories through a theme.
Narrative theory analyzes how media texts communicate meaning through stories. A narrative is defined as a chain of events with a beginning, middle, and end that follows a cause-and-effect relationship. Narrative theorists like Branigan and Propp analyzed how narratives embody ideologies and include character archetypes. Barthes identified five codes that help readers make sense of narratives, including action, referential, symbolic, and enigma codes. Levi-Strauss examined how stories reflect a culture's values through binary oppositions. Postmodern narratives are characterized by nonlinearity, self-reflexivity, and pastiche.
Narrative refers to the organization of elements in a story, such as facts, characters, and actions, to form a meaningful story. There are different structures for narratives, including closed structures where the story ends satisfactorily, open endings where the conclusion is unclear, and multi-strand structures where multiple narratives occur simultaneously. Narrative theories from Roland Barthes and Todorov relate to conventions of horror genres, with protagonists solving puzzles to save people and confront supernatural threats.

Specific horror films like The Shining, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Misery are used as examples to demonstrate these theoretical concepts in action. The document concludes that these theories are useful for understanding the themes, decisions, suspense, and emotions created in the horror genre.
Teen slasher films typically involve a homicidal maniac who uses weapons like knives to kill teenagers in isolated locations where they cannot get help. These locations include abandoned large buildings, forests, fields and parks that provide space to hide bodies and prevent calls for assistance. The document discusses teen slasher film tropes like the killer and their weapons, then proposes specific filming locations in London that would suit the genre due to their isolated, dark and ominous qualities.

Inspecting elements of science fiction and postmodern genre in the novel, Slaughterhouse Five by Vonnegut. Definition of Science Fiction and Postmodern in Literature.
This document discusses several classic narrative patterns and theories. It explains Tzvetan Todorov's theory of the classic narrative pattern which follows the structure of equilibrium disrupted by an event and resolved with order restored. Vladimir Propp identified character types and actions in fairy tales. The classic pattern works through equilibrium, disruption, resolution, restored order, and new equilibrium. It also discusses Claude Levi-Strauss's structuralist ideas about binary opposites in narratives and Roland Barthes's five codes that make up all stories: action, semantic, enigma, referential, and symbolic codes.
The document discusses different types of plot structures in literature. It defines plot and describes pyramidal, episodic, and epiphanic plots. The pyramidal plot follows a basic structure of exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. It can be analyzed using Freytag's pyramid. Episodic plots feature distinct episodes that can stand alone, like novels by Cervantes and Twain. Epiphanic plots involve a protagonist gaining sudden insight during a struggle that leads to a climax or reversal. Plots can be told chronologically or through flashbacks and the "in medias res" technique of starting in the middle.

Politics and the English Language doc for kindlepvtbuddie
George Orwell analyzes how political language has declined and become unclear. He provides five examples of poor writing that lack precision and use stale metaphors and "operators" instead of precise language. Orwell argues this kind of writing makes clear thought difficult and has political consequences, so addressing problems with the English language is important. The decline is reversible if writers make an effort to use precise language that conveys intended meaning.
The document summarizes several narrative theories and how they relate to a music video project. It discusses Todorov's five stages of narrative structure, Propp's character archetypes, Levi-Strauss' concept of binary opposites driving conflict, and Barthes' five narrative codes including enigma, action, semantic, symbolic, and referential codes. Examples are given of how elements from the theories can be seen in the music video, such as the disruption/resolution structure, limited character types, and tensions created through racial binary opposites.
The document discusses several theorists who contributed to structuralist theories of narrative. It describes Tzvetan Todorov's concepts of equilibrium, disequilibrium, and new equilibrium in narratives. It also mentions Roland Barthes' five codes that make up narratives, including the enigma code. Claude Levi-Strauss argued that narratives are based on binary oppositions and deeper paradigmatic meanings rather than surface structures. Vladimir Propp analyzed folk tales and identified eight character roles and 31 predictable functions that commonly occur.
This document discusses several concepts related to analyzing narratives:
1. It describes five common narrative codes - action, enigma, semic, symbolic, and cultural codes - that convey meaning to audiences.
2. It outlines characteristics of closed and open narratives, noting elements like resolution, character development, and timelines.
3. It discusses Vladimir Propp's analysis of character roles that commonly appear in folktales, such as villains, heroes, helpers, and rewards.
4. The concept of binary opposition is explained, in which narratives are driven by conflicts between opposing forces like good vs evil, order vs chaos. Analyzing these forces aids understanding of the narrative.
This document introduces several theorists of narrative structure, including Tzvetan Todorov, Vladimir Propp, Roland Barthes, and Claude Levi-Strauss. It summarizes some of their main contributions: Todorov proposed narratives follow a structure of equilibrium, disequilibrium, and new equilibrium. Propp identified 31 narrative functions that follow a sequential order. Barthes described codes like the hermeneutic code that establish narrative mysteries. And Levi-Strauss viewed narratives as based on binary oppositions that reveal deeper ideological meanings.
This document defines and discusses different types of plot structures in literature. It describes pyramidal, episodic, and epiphanic plots. The pyramidal plot follows a basic structure of exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. Episodic plots feature distinct episodes that can each function as individual stories. Epiphanic plots involve a protagonist gaining sudden insight that leads to a climax or reversal. Examples of works that utilize each type of plot structure are provided. The document also briefly discusses using flashbacks and starting a narrative "in medias res" or in the middle of events.
This presentation deals with the closure concept and how it takes place in narratives. It is based on The Cambridge Introduction to Narrative by H.Porter Abbott.

Todorov's narrative theory analyzes the basic structure of narratives into five parts: equilibrium, disruption, recognition of disruption, attempt to repair, and resolution/return to equilibrium. Propp's theory suggests all fairytale characters can be categorized into seven roles including the villain, dispatcher, helper, princess/father, donor, hero, and false hero. Levi-Strauss developed the idea of binary opposition, where the plot of a narrative is based on opposites such as human vs supernatural working against each other.
The document discusses different types of narrative structures and styles that can be used in storytelling. It notes that the author's story uses a closed, single-strand, linear narrative structure. While some elements are realistic like the human characters, it is mostly anti-realistic with magical elements like magic beans, giants, and enchanted animals. The narrative follows typical story structures with an opening, conflict, and resolution.
The document discusses several narrative theorists and their contributions. Vladimir Propp analyzed over 100 Russian fairy tales and identified character roles that frequently appeared, such as the villain, hero, donor, and dispatcher. Tzvetan Todorov believes most narratives follow a structure of equilibrium being disrupted by a force, then returning to equilibrium. Roland Barthes identified five narrative codes that engage the reader: action, enigma, symbolic, semic, and cultural. Claude Levi-Strauss examined how myths unconsciously reflect a culture's values through binary oppositions.
Vladimir Propp analyzed Russian folk tales and identified common character types such as the hero, villain, princess, and sidekick. Roland Barthes identified narrative codes like the action code, enigma code, semantic code, and cultural code that are used to construct stories. Tzvetan Todorov suggested narratives follow a three part structure of equilibrium, disruption of equilibrium, and restoration of equilibrium. Claude Levi-Strauss observed that narratives can be reduced down to binary oppositions that represent underlying conflicts.

Narrative theory analyzes how media texts communicate meaning about events. Narrative theorists suggest there are a limited number of character types that audiences use to understand narratives. For example, Vladimir Propp identified character types like the villain, hero, donor, and princess. Tzvetan Todorov proposed that most narratives follow a structure of equilibrium, disruption, resolution. Roland Barthes argued narratives can be broken down into codes like action, reference, and symbolism that help readers make sense of stories. Levi-Strauss examined how unconscious cultural values are reflected in narratives through binary oppositions such as good vs bad.
Tzvetan Todorov's theory of equilibrium proposes that narratives follow a 5-stage circular structure: 1) an initial state of equilibrium, 2) a disruption causing disequilibrium, 3) recognition of the disruption, 4) an attempt to repair the damage, and 5) a return to a new equilibrium. The narrative is driven by restoring equilibrium, though the final equilibrium is transformed from the initial state. This structure involves characters or situations changing through progressing the disruption, which usually occurs outside normal social events.

This document provides an overview of context and an introduction to pragmatics and discourse analysis. It defines pragmatics as studying language use in context, considering situational, cultural and interpersonal factors. Discourse analysis examines coherent and meaningful stretches of language. Both approaches study context, text and function. The document discusses three types of context - situational, cultural background knowledge, and co-textual context. It provides examples analyzing conversations and written texts to illustrate how meaning depends on shared assumptions and contextual knowledge between speakers.
The document provides guidance on effective writing styles. It discusses using a personal voice without being informal, focusing on the reader, using short and varied sentence structures, and avoiding long-winded or meaningless language. It emphasizes conveying a clear central message in a style that is accessible to readers.
Here are a few tips for considering your audience:
- Put yourself in their shoes. Think about their perspective, interests, knowledge level, and experiences.
- Use an appropriate tone and level of formality. Avoid jargon or insider language they may not understand.
- Provide context and definitions for specialized terms or concepts they may be unfamiliar with.
- Cater your examples and evidence to what would be most relevant and engaging for them.
- Consider their potential objections or biases and address counterarguments respectfully.
- Make your purpose and intended takeaways clear from the beginning to invite them in.
- Check that your overall structure and flow of information works for how your audience processes new ideas

Critical discourse analysis professor martin conboy8 decembermehek4
This document provides an overview of critical discourse analysis and framing analysis as approaches to media analysis. It discusses how framing analysis has evolved from traditional content analysis by focusing on how language, images, and other textual elements can encourage particular understandings of events. The document uses Entman's influential study comparing media coverage of the KAL and Iran Air shootdowns as an example of how different frames were constructed around comparable events. It also discusses theories like Entman's cascading activation model and Herman and Chomsky's propaganda model that seek to explain how framing relates to the exercise of power and propaganda. Finally, it addresses some common methods, challenges, and criticisms of framing analysis research.
This document discusses the different types of paragraphs. It defines a paragraph as a grammatical structure that contains a main idea and related sentences.

The document provides examples and explanations of each type of paragraph to illustrate their distinguishing characteristics. It also discusses other ways paragraphs can be classified, such as by logical structure, location within a document, or content.
This document provides an overview of context and its importance in discourse analysis. It discusses four main aspects of context: 1) situational context, which refers to the immediate physical surroundings, 2) cultural and interpersonal background context, which refers to shared cultural knowledge and prior interactions, 3) co-textual context, which refers to the surrounding words, and 4) intertextuality, which refers to knowledge gained from previous texts. It also defines key concepts such as deixis, exophoric reference, and cohesion. The document aims to explain how understanding context is essential for analyzing pragmatics and the meaning of language in use.
The document discusses various techniques for creating elegant and balanced writing styles, including: using coordination and parallel structures to create symmetrical sentences; ending sentences with heavily stressed nouns or nominalizations; employing chiasmus to cross-balance elements; and suspending the main point of a sentence until the end for dramatic effect. Specific examples are provided to illustrate elegant sentences that employ techniques like echoing, prepositional phrases, and climactic endings.
This document discusses formal and contextual links in language. It describes several cohesive devices that create formal links between sentences:
1. Verb form
2. Parallelism
3. Referring expressions
4. Repetition and lexical chains
5. Substitution
6. Ellipsis
7. Conjunction
It provides examples of each device and explains how they suggest connections between sentences. However, the document also notes that formal links alone are not enough to create coherence - contextual understanding is also required. Language must be understood in terms of its intended functions and the cultural norms of communication.
This document outlines different types of paragraphs that can be used when writing texts, including introductory paragraphs, synthesis paragraphs, quote paragraphs, transition paragraphs, concluding paragraphs, and paragraphs used for description, definition, chronology, organization, clarification, examples, generalization, and concluding the main idea. It provides examples of each type of paragraph to illustrate how they can be structured.
This document discusses different types of paragraphs that can be used when writing texts, including introductory paragraphs, synthesis paragraphs, descriptive paragraphs, definition paragraphs, sequential paragraphs, and concluding paragraphs. It provides examples of each type of paragraph and their purpose in structuring a written work.
The document discusses various style concerns related to using a personal voice in writing. It states that a personal voice does not require using first person pronouns or being informal, but rather means using natural language. The document provides examples of passages with and without a personal voice. It also discusses using quotations, paraphrasing, and summarizing and the differences between those techniques.

This document is the preface to a book titled "Models and Metaphors" by Max Black. It is a collection of essays written since his previous book in 1954 that explore the relationship between language and philosophical problems. Though the topics covered are wide-ranging, Black hopes there is a consistent focus on how language bears on philosophical issues. He is grateful to students, colleagues, and publishers who have provided feedback and permission to reprint the essays. The book is dedicated to Susanna and David.
The document discusses various style and voice concerns in writing, including the appropriate use of first and third person pronouns, formality versus informality, and ensuring one's writing reflects a natural personal voice. It provides examples of passages that effectively or ineffectively demonstrate these qualities. The document also briefly covers topics like quoting, paraphrasing, summarizing information from sources, and using punctuation correctly with quotations.

Darwin's book "The Origin of Species" examines his theory of evolution by natural selection. In this excerpt from the introduction, Darwin outlines his process of developing the theory over many years through careful study and accumulation of facts relating to variation under domestication, distribution of species, embryological development, and more. He notes how another naturalist, Wallace, independently arrived at similar conclusions. The introduction provides context around Darwin's work and sets up his plan to present the evidence for evolution and natural selection in the following chapters.
The document outlines eight patterns of development used in writing: narration, description, definition, classification and exemplification, comparison and contrast, cause and effect, problem-solution, and persuasion. It provides examples and characteristics of each pattern, including signal words commonly used to indicate each pattern. For narration, description, and definition, it discusses different varieties within each pattern such as objective vs. subjective description.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
The chapter Lifelines of National Economy in Class 10 Geography focuses on the various modes of transportation and communication that play a vital role in the economic development of a country. These lifelines are crucial for the movement of goods, services, and people, thereby connecting different regions and promoting economic activities.
Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).

Session Two: 'Expanding Pathways to Publishing Careers,' was held June 13, 2024.
2. Concepts to cover this session
Suspensiveness
Techniques to Create Suspense
Phatic Expressions
3. Sentences that complete the basic pattern of subject and predicate
early on, keeping subject and verb near the beginning of the
sentence and keeping subject and verb close together
Loose Sentences
4. delaying its main clause until the very end
splitting the subject from the verb with qualifying material
using any construction that refines, sharpens, or adds to
initial information before putting it to final use
A sentence is termed periodic if it suspends
completion of its message:
5. "Those who roused the people to resistance, who
directed their measures through a long series of eventful
years, who formed, out of the most unpromising
materials, the finest army that Europe had ever seen,
who trampled down King, Church, and Aristocracy, who,
in the short intervals of domestic sedition and rebellion,
made the name of England terrible to every nation on the
face of the earth, were no vulgar fanatics."
- The Puritans By Thomas Babington Macaulay
6. "We can reason that the periodic style, like the noun style shows thought to
be static, organized into its component parts and then flash-frozen; the
running style, like the verb style, shows behavior still in progress, happening
in the present, not the past. The contrast often proves a fruitful one but it
ought not to lead us to ignore the powerful internal dynamics the period
can generate. If you add enough internal qualifications and parenthetical
interruptions, it turns into a running style.
7. Three Reasons for Employing Suspensive Syntax
1. Varying your predominantly loose style and emphasizing
your more important ideas
2. Putting the important ideas at the end of the sentence
3. Sustaining interest in a long sentence
8. In linguistics, a phatic expression is communication which serves a social
function such as small talk and social pleasantries that don't seek or offer
any information of value.
For example, greetings such as "hello" and "how are you?" are phatic
expressions.
Phatic Expression
9. Phatic Connectors
To be honest
Let's face it
Just between us
If truth be known
If you must know
If you get right down to it
If I may call it that
I can't help but wonder
To my way of thinking
It seems to me
Shall we say
11. An inverted cumulative works periodically, forestalling the base clause by a number of
modifying levels, keeping the distinctive cumulative rhythm, but putting it to suspensive effect.
His eyes weary from the road, his clothes tattered and dusty, his beard long
and unkempt, looking as if not only insects but small animals might be nesting
within its scraggly strands, Robert Coover's Wayfarer, the enigmatic
protagonist of one of the mini-narratives in "Seven Exemplary Fictions," is
hardly a character designed to attract our sympathy.
Five Delaying Tactics
12. "A verb has a hard enough time of it in this world when it is all together. It's
downright inhuman to split it up. But that's what those Germans do. They take
part of a verb and put it down here, like a stake, and they take the other part of it
and put it away over yonder like another stake, and between these two limits they
just shovel in German."
Completion of the base clause can also be delayed, by interposing modifying or qualifying
material between the subject and the verb of the sentence, a splitting tactic that runs the risk
of losing or alienating the reader, easily the least controlled or focused periodic form.
Five Delaying Tactics
13. Initial qualifying constructions lead to more complicated periodic structures, presenting
information that becomes complete—safe to accept as final-only when joined with or
reassessed in light of information in the base clause, a process signaled by opening words such
as "although," "even," or "if."
If it can be proved that UFOs exist, and if it is revealed that the U.S. government
has indeed hidden evidence of extraterrestrial visitors, and even if it turns out
that Bigfoot and Elvis do not live outside its lurid pages, the contribution of the
Weekly World News to the history of journalism may have to be reassessed.
Five Delaying Tactics
14. An extended subject produces similar results, initially offering an infinitive or relative clause,
bringing the sentence into focus only when it becomes clear that what at first may have looked
like a complete sentence is actually no more than the subject of a much longer sentence.
"To come all this way, to arrive after dark, to find the village completely
abandoned, Tarzan nowhere in sight, and the banana trees stripped bare
left Cheetah feeling completely nonplussed."
- Carl Klaus
Five Delaying Tactics
15. The sentence whose message is interrupted by a colon or a semicolon, but inexorably deflating,
inverting, or otherwise recasting that message by the one that follows the colon or semi-colon,
often waiting until the last word of the second clause to spring the sentence's rhetorical trap.
The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent
virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries."
- Winston Churchill
Five Delaying Tactics
16. "Since he belonged, even at the age of six, to that great clan
which cannot keep this feeling separate from that, but must let
future prospects, with their joys and sorrows, cloud what is
actually at hand, since to such people even in earliest childhood
any turn in the wheel of sensation has the power to crystallise
and transfix the moment upon which its gloom or radiance rests,
James Ramsay, sitting on the floor cutting out pictures from the
illustrated catalogue of the Army and Navy Stores, endowed
the picture of a refrigerator, as his mother spoke, with heavenly
bliss."
- To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf
