  • How Taiwanese Media Reinforces China’s Domestic Propaganda

    Open AccessA M Devine, Andrew DevineARTICLEJournal of Contemporary China2026

    Beijing’s foreign propaganda targets a variety of audiences—from Global South citizens to overseas Chinese and even audiences inside China. How does Beijing’s foreign propaganda serve its domestic audience? Drawing on news sources and 21 expert interviews conducted in Taiwan, this study shows how Chinese foreign propaganda ‘boomerangs’ back to its domestic audience, helping to legitimize the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) domestic narratives. Th…

  • Pragmatics for Latin

    A M Devine, Andrew Devine et al.BOOKPragmatics for Latin2019

    Latin is often described as a free word order language, but in general each word order encodes a particular information structure: in that sense, each word order has a different meaning. This book provides a descriptive analysis of Latin information structure based on detailed philological evidence and elaborates a syntax-pragmatics interface that formalizes the informational content of the various different word orders. The book covers a wide ra…

  • OP77 Proxy Reporting of Health-Related Quality of Life using the Euroqol-5D in Care Home Residents; how Good is it and how should we Deal with Clustering Effects

    A M Devine, Angela Devine et al.ARTICLEJournal of Epidemiology and…2013

    Background Some care home residents are unable to complete the measures of health utility needed for cost-utility analyses. Proxy measures are an alternative source of data; however, the level of agreement in the EQ-5D between residents and care home staff and the impact of clustering on this agreement has not been investigated previously. Using data nested in a large clinical trial, we aimed to (1) identify inter-rater agreement levels for the r…

  • Latin Word Order

    A M Devine, Laurence D StephensBOOKLatin word order2006

    Reading a paragraph of Latin without attention to the word order entails losing access to a whole dimension of meaning, or at least using inferential procedures to guess at what is actually overtly encoded in the syntax. This book introduces the linguistic concepts, formalism, and analytical techniques necessary for the study of Latin word order. It then presents and analyzes a representative selection of data in sufficient detail to foster both …

  • Discontinuous Syntax

    Helma Dik, A M Devine et al.ARTICLEThe Classical World2001

    The interface between syntax and meaning, both semantic and pragmatic, has emerged as perhaps the richest and most fascinating area of current linguistics theory. This study applies some of these ideas to hyperbaton, offering an original new theory with broad applications for our understanding of Greek syntax. Students of epic will find a fresh perspective on orality in Homer while the general classicist will discover a more precise and explicit …

  • The Prosody of Greek Speech

    A M Devine, Laurence D StephensBOOKThe prosody of Greek speech1994

    The reconstruction of the prosody of a dead language is, on the face of it, an almost impossible undertaking. However, once a general theory of prosody has been developed from reliable data in living languages, it is possible to exploit texts as sources of answers to questions that would normally be answered in the laboratory. In this work, the authors interpret the evidence of Greek verse texts and musical settings in the framework of a theory o…

  • Demythologizing the Battle of the Granicus

    A M DevineARTICLEPhoenix1986

    As N. G. L. HAMMOND REMARKS, historians have found battle of Granicus River most puzzling of Alexander's battles.1 The main reason for this, put in a nutshell, is that they have seen too much in it. The dogma of the four great battles of Alexander (i.e., Granicus, Issus, Gaugamela, and Hydaspes) has produced an almost subconscious desire on part of modern commentators to raise affair at Granicus to world-historical status of Issus or Gaugamela, w…

  • Tribrach-Shaped Words in the Tragic Timeter

    A M Devine, Laurence D StephensARTICLEPhoenix1981

    THE SPECIAL RESTRICTIONS on syllables appearing in resolved positions have long been a major topic in Greek metrics, and justifiably so, since they are crucial not only for philologically exact descriptions but also for a proper understanding of the very nature of Greek metre. In this paper, we shall discuss one of these restrictions, namely the following rule governing tribrach-shaped words in the tragic trimeter

  • The "Parthi," the Tyranny of Tiberius, and the Date of Q. Curtius Rufus

    A M DevineARTICLEPhoenix1979

    T HE QUESTION of the date at which Q. Curtius Rufus wrote his Historiae Alexandri Magni Macedonis is one that has long been debated yet never conclusively settled. Since there is extant no ancient reference either to such a history or to a Quintus Curtius Rufus as the author of a work on Alexander, any attempt to date it must rest on internal evidence. Unfortunately, little in the way of such evidence is forthcoming. Indeed, only once in the surv…
