    Real bad grammar: realistic grammatical description with grammaticality

    Get PDF
    Sampson (this issue) argues for a concept of “realistic grammatical description” in which the distinction between grammatical and ungrammatical sentences is irrelevant. In this article I also argue for a concept of “realistic grammatical description” but one in which a binary distinction between grammatical and ungrammatical sentences is maintained. In distinguishing between the grammatical and ungrammatical, this kind of grammar differs from that proposed by Sampson, but it does share the important property that invented sentences have no role to play, either as positive or negative evidence

    Early modern intertextuality: post structuralism, narrative systems, and 'A midsummer night's dream'

    Get PDF
    Central to both early modern critical study and the theory of intertextuality are concepts such as the plurality of discourse, the mutually informing relationship between cultural ideologies and texts, and the instability of texts. Following revised critical approaches, this essay argues that there is potential in the direct application and exploration of the theory of intertextuality in early modern literature, particularly in the sense of engagement with and the extensive refiguring of elements from available narrative systems including classical mythology, folklore, and contemporary continental writing through allegory, allusion and translation. Critical consideration of reading, creative imitation, and interpretative variety are central to both fields. This essay argues that these central aspects of early modern creative writing constitute a valid application of intertextual theory, which can be used to generate detailed and multilayered critical readings. It outlines an understanding of intertextuality, demonstrates how the theory is illustrated both in the period and in inherited classical textual theory, and offers a brief applied case study, reading Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream (1595) as an overtly intertextual text

    Overview of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

    No full text
    This module is a self-guided PowerPoint presentation intended to be a self-study session that provides an overview of the clinical anatomy of thoracic outlet syndrome. The module was created by graduating doctor of physical therapy students in order to enhance and reaffirm knowledge that had been attained in the classroom. The authors sought to combine the classroom knowledge with a greater understanding that they had achieved as a result of clinical experiences. The module was created as a requirement for an advanced clinical anatomy elective course taken in the final semester. It is advised that learners use the module to examine the clinical anatomy while dissecting a cadaver, or examine a prosection for the initial discussion of the types of thoracic outlet syndrome. Beyond the clinical anatomy discussion, the student should be able to simply review the module for information pertaining to the clinical presentation, differential diagnosis, and treatment options for thoracic outlet syndrome. Total time for review may range from 10 minutes to 30 minutes depending on the use of anatomical models or cadavers to augment the module. The module should be used after students have been exposed to the gross anatomy of the upper extremity. Students may wish to have additional resources available that may include more simplistic drawings of the brachial plexus while using this module. In the future, an updated version with a more complete visual representation of the brachial plexus and perhaps a series of patient case scenarios may enhance the module
