Taking stance towards any topic, event or idea is a common phenomenon on Twitter and social media in general. Twitter users express their opinions about different matters and assess other people’s opinions in various discursive ways. The identification and analysis of the linguistic ways that people use to take different stances leads to a better understanding of the language and user behaviour on
With her 1953 debut Anna Rydstedt (1928-1994) immediately became part of a strong tradition of Swedish women poets, a tradition represented by authors such as Karin Boye and Edith Södergran. The debut was a furious attack on those who had thwarted her attempts to become a minister in the Church of Sweden. Rydstedt’s poetry is always existential, both in its content and process. Writing, for her, i

This paper is about the hoplite army and the men in it who fought for their family and polis. I wanted to write this paper because I think that we get too little information about the ordinary men who fight in wars. We are always told about the great generals and the outcomes of the battles but never about those who have to leave their normal life to maybe get killed. My purpose is to give a broad
Popular Abstract in Swedish I över 200 år har en rad historiker, språkmän, folklorister och arkeologer försökt att återskapa en svunnen kultur. Med hjälp av antika texter, medeltida uppteckningar, filologiska observationer och arkeologiska lämningar har de beskrivit en värld, en religion och ett folk äldre än sumererna, med vilka all historia annars sägs ha börjat. De som upprätthöll denna svunna By using ancient texts, medieval documents, philological observations, and archaeological artifacts, scholars have reconstructed a prehistorical world and religion. The people who upheld this culture have been named, inter alia, "Indo-Europeans", "Aryans", "Japhetites" and "Wiros". Yet, these people have not left any texts, no artifacts can with certainty be ascribed to them, nor do we know any in

On the one hand, it is a pan-human system of valuation, but on the other, it is conventional and variable in its uses. While it is controversial if money instantiates a fully-fledged sign system, it is rife with semiotic capacities. To present an il

This thesis examines the Roman birth certificates, their content and physical appearance. Twenty certificates still exist: 17 diptychs (AD 60-164) and 3 papyri documents (AD 194-240). Birth certificates were widely used in the Roman empire, but the remaining ones are from three regions in Egypt: Alexandria, Fayyum and the Roman border to Nubia. They were all discovered in the beginning of the 20th
