Cassius Dio
This volume offers an introduction to the life and work of the 3rd-century-AD Greco-Roman senator and historian Cassius Dio, whose work, although imperfectly preserved in 80 books, is of fundamental importance to our understanding of Roman history. It is said that Dio is not one of the best ancient historians and his Roman history, due to its sheer size, is often imprecise and superficial in its analysis. It has also been assumed that there was n…
Xenophon
This book offers a concise introduction to Xenophon, the Athenian historian, political thinker, moral philosopher and literary innovator who was also a pupil of Socrates, a military general on campaign in Persia, and an exile in residence in the Peloponnese during the late fifth and fourth centuries BC. Alive during one of the most turbulent periods in Greek history, Xenophon wrote extensively about the past and present. In doing so he not only i…
Character Voice in Anime Subtitles
One of the main functions of dialogue in film narrative is the construction of character voice, which is partly realized through the skillful use of the sociolinguistic and pragmatic resources of language. In the English subtitling of Japanese animation, there are however two barriers to recreating this function. The first barrier is the major pragmatic and sociolinguistic difference between Japanese and English, and the second consists of the te…

Measurement of Changes in Trabecular Bone Structure with Age in an Archaeological Population
An Australian convention conceived in controversy
Australia is to hold a referendum in 1999 on the replacement of the Queen as head of state and the mechanism of electing a President who would assume her functions and those of the Governor‐General. The choice will be between remaining a constitutional monarchy or having a president elected by both Houses of Parliament. Direct elections were said to be widely popular but disliked by politicians who saw it as a major step towards the United States…

Language and speech of mild-severely hearing impaired children
Perceptual and Acoustic Evidence for Reduced Fluency in The Vicinity of Stuttering Episodes
A perceptual experiment and acoustic analyses were conducted to address the question whether stuttering occurs only at specific “moments” or whether it also affects the surrounding speech. Sections of stutterers' speech were extracted from clauses which were spoken completely fluently (control) or contained one stutter (experimental). in the experimental sections, only speech up to or following the stuttered word was employed. All sections were r…
Changes in Voice Level Caused by Several Forms of Altered Feedback in Fluent Speakers and Stutterers
Speakers change the level of their voice when they listen to noise or hear their own speech amplified: When noise level is increased the voice becomes louder, whilst the response to speech amplification is a reduction of voice level. The question posed here is whether, when the level of various sounds concurrent with vocalisation is raised, the direction of the vocal level response is like that to the speaker's speech or like that to noise. Voice…
Natural auditory sensitivities as universal determiners of phonemic contrasts
Are there acoustic invariants that mediate the perception of phonemes? If there were, they might be shared by a number of languages. But this acoustic-phonemic relationship does not occur in a simple way for any of the languages that have been examined. Has, then, such an approach to speech perception been abandoned? Not entirely; some theorists argue that there are invariant acoustic properties which occur whatever context a phoneme is spoken in…
