“Let Us Record the Atoms as They Fall Upon the Mind” The Use of Objects and Animals to Convey Consciousness in Virginia Woolf’s To the Lighthouse and William Faulkner’s As I Lay Dying

The modernist movement was focused on capturing the unknown and uncircumscribed spirit of life. Virginia Woolf and William Faulkner, paragons of the modernist author, connect internal and external worlds by creating complex relationships between characters and the objects or animals they encounter in their everyday lives. Key texts studied include To the Lighthouse (Woolf, 1927) and As I Lay Dying (Faulkner, 1930), among others

Webs of "Wirkung": Modelling the interconnectedness of classification schemes

This paper explores relationships between different classification schemes. It suggests how these relationships could be considered part of the reception of a scheme, in particular as an aspect of its "Wirkung". Both intra-domain and inter-domain scheme relationships are examined, and are combined with pre-existing research on intra-scheme relationships. A model is posited which maps inter-scheme relationships, showing some of the complexities evoked in analysing the connections between classification schemes. Musical instrument (organology) classification is used as examples throughout the paper, to illustrate the ideas being discussed

Analysis of equivalence mapping for terminology services

This paper assesses the range of equivalence or mapping types required to facilitate interoperability in the context of a distributed terminology server. A detailed set of mapping types were examined, with a view to determining their validity for characterizing relationships between mappings from selected terminologies (AAT, LCSH, MeSH, and UNESCO) to the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) scheme. It was hypothesized that the detailed set of 19 match types proposed by Chaplan in 1995 is unnecessary in this context and that they could be reduced to a less detailed conceptually-based set. Results from an extensive mapping exercise support the main hypothesis and a generic suite of match types are proposed, although doubt remains over the current adequacy of the developing Simple Knowledge Organization System (SKOS) Core Mapping Vocabulary Specification (MVS) for inter-terminology mapping

Characteristics of Cover-Collapse Sinkholes in Kentucky

Sudden collapse of unconsolidated earth materials over soluble bedrock, known as cover collapse, damages buildings, roads, utility lines, and farm equipment in Kentucky. It has also killed livestock, including Thoroughbred horses, and injured people. The estimated annual cost of sinkhole cover collapse in Kentucky ranges from $20 million to$84 million and is sensitive to rare but expensive events such as the 2014 National Corvette Museum collapse. The Kentucky Geological Survey began developing a catalog of case histories of cover-collapse occurrences in 1997, and receives an average of 24 reports each year. Three hundred fifty-four occurrences of cover-collapse sinkholes throughout Kentucky are documented, and cover-collapse variables such as diameter, elongation, and depth as a function of bedrock type and time of year have been statistically analyzed. Statewide, cover-collapse sinkholes are on average 2.7 m long, 1.9 m wide, and 2.4 m deep. Some can be substantially larger and deeper. Data in the catalog show that new occurrences of cover collapse may initiate the formation of new sinkholes, but cover collapse generally does not occur in existing sinkholes. Historically, the number of collapses is smallest in February, steadily increases to peak in July, and then decreases through December and into January
