Some Linguistic Aspects of the Heroic Couplet in the Poetry of Phillis Wheatley

Holder, Kenneth R. 08 1900 (has links)
This dissertation is an examination of the characteristics of Phillis Wheatley's couplet poems in the areas of meter, rhyme, and syntax. The metrical analysis employs Morris Halle and Samuel Jay Keyser's theory of iambic pentameter, the rhyme examination considers the various factors involved in rhyme selection and rhyme function, and the syntactic analysis is conducted within the theoretical framework of a generative grammar similar to that proposed in Noam Chomsky's "Aspects of the Theory of Syntax" (1965). The findings in these three areas are compared with the characteristics of a representative sample of the works of Alexander Pope, the poet who supposedly exerted a strong influence on Wheatley, a black eighteenth century American poet.

Elisão silábica e haplologia: aspectos fonológicos do falar da cidade paulista de Capivari / Syllable drop and haplology: phonological aspects of the Capivari speech, a city from the countryside of São Paulo state

Eneida de Goes Leal 18 September 2006 (has links)
Esta dissertação trata da queda de sílaba em limite de palavra no falar da cidade paulista de Capivari, observando-se em quais contextos esse processo fonológico pode ocorrer e em quais nunca ocorre. Para realizar essa análise, são considerados três níveis fonológicos, quais sejam: segmental, prosódico e métrico. A queda de sílaba é tratada como dois tipos distintos de redução fonológica: na elisão silábica, há dessemelhança entre as consoantes das sílabas envolvidas; com relação à haplologia, as consoantes das sílabas são iguais ou semelhantes ? a diferença entre elas está apenas no traço [sonoridade]. Pôde-se constatar, pela análise de contextos segmentais, que tanto a elisão silábica quanto a haplologia são processos regidos pelas mesmas regras, uma vez que ambos os processos se dão no mesmo ponto de consoante para que possa haver efetiva queda de sílaba. E, da mesma forma, esses processos fonológicos podem ocorrer em qualquer nível da hierarquia prosódica. Isso evidencia que a elisão silábica e a haplologia são de fato o mesmo processo fonológico. Finalmente, a análise métrica aponta as mesmas propriedades para a elisão silábica e para a haplologia no que diz respeito ao uso desses processos para otimizações rítmicas / This work deals with syllable deletion in word boundary in Capivari speech, a city from the countryside of São Paulo state. It was checked in which contexts this phonological process can occur and in which it can never occur. To fulfill this analysis three phonological levels were considered: segmental, prosodic and metrical. Syllable deletion is dealt as two distinct types of phonological reduction: in syllable drop, the syllable\'s consonants are distinct from each other; in haplology, the consonants are equal or alike - the difference between them is only the feature [sonority]. By the analysis of segmental contexts, it has been proved that both syllable drop and haplology are types of processes which are governed by the same rules, for both of them must have the same consonant place node, so that there can be in fact syllable deletion. In the same way, both the phonological processes may occur in any prosodic level from which it is evident that syllable drop and haplology are actually the same phonological process. To verify if both the processes are rhythmically used in the same way it has been pointed out by metrical analysis that syllable drop and haplology present the same properties as regards to optmization
