Measurement for Words This novel seduces you, both emotionally and intellectually. It starts like a romance, albeit one set on campus, but ends up an exceptional work of meta-fiction. The first person narrator, an author, a homonymic namesake of the real Richard Powers, has written four novels that sound like the ones on my shelves, has suffered the break-up of an 11 year old relationship while living in Holland, and is now confronting writer's block. He is ostensibly "working" for 12 months as a writer in residence and "token humanist" at an enormous new Centre for the Study of Advanced Sciences at "U" (most likely at the real Powers' alma mater, University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign). Originally a physics major, he too was seduced, by his English Professor Taylor's "life-changing freshman seminar", into switching to the study of Literature and thus became a novelist, much to his natural father's disappointment. He has forsaken "measurement for words". Back from the Dead, Literarily Because he is conversant in the "Two Cultures", the Centre sees him as its potential liaison with the outside community. His aim is to do as little as possible, while he struggles to determine the subject of his next novel or give up writing altogether. Powers' year takes another turn when Dr Philip Lentz at the Artificial Intelligence unit issues him a challenge: can he teach their software creation to write a critical essay on a book from the English Department's canonical Masters' List that is better than one by a real life postgraduate student? Powers speculates early on that Lentz (whose own wife is hospitalised with a mental illness and whose daughter is estranged from him) "would bring a life back from the dead." Tabula Rasa Much of the novel maps the journey upon which the various AI iterations or "implementations" acquire linguistic and critical skills. They start with a blank slate, a tabula rasa, which is gradually filled by repeated experience, accumulation, selection, curiosity, pattern matching, syllogistic deduction, and tentative inference, until finally they realise they are shooting "the first rapids of inanimate thought". Each lesson, Powers finds himself telling a story and answering child-like questions about the story from a computer he decides to call "Helen". Soon, Helen's enthusiasm almost matches the words of his ex-lover, C., about an earlier novel: "That's a great story...I loved that one. I'm afraid I'm going to have to kill you for it." Metaphysician, Heal Thyself Powers' biggest problem seems to be his loneliness. His writing has disconnected him from those around him. Ironically, he turns to scientists who specialise in neural nets and connections. Powers learns that he must reach in before he can reach out. No matter how dejected he might feel, he is not a total void. He realises that he has nothing left in him, "but the autobiography I'd refused from the start even to think about." He, too, thought he had become a blank slate, a tabula rasa, except that he's learned that not everything has been erased. What remained, the legacy of his life to date, would be his tale. Now, finally, he is ready to tell his story. Galatea and Pygmalion Helen represents the challenge of transferring human knowledge and understanding to a machine. However, any transfer requires two acts: the transmission by one entity and the reception by the other. To oversimplify the issues, it requires both teaching and learning. Just as the team takes giant steps towards Artificial Intelligence, it successfully extracts a new story, a novel, from Powers, the narrator. The meta-fictional aspect is that the novel is this novel, the work of fiction ostensibly written by the real life Richard Powers, the novel that we are reading. As we read, we are effectively learning about the creation of the very novel we are reading. The educative process not only teaches Helen, the Galatea in the Pygmalion myth, it extracts a creative work from Powers' mind. Depiction of Ovid's myth of Pygmalion and Galatea by Jean Raoux. Learning to Love Like Pygmalion, Powers teaches Helen great works of literature, from "Aesop's Fables" to Shakespeare, from "Don Quixote" to "Middlemarch", from "Paradise Lost" to "Frankenstein", from "Doktor Faustus" to "The Hobbit", from "Ulysses" to "Gravity's Rainbow". Helen learns about desire and love and jealousy and grace and disgrace and second chances. At times, you wonder whether Powers has actually taught Helen enough for her to "know" how to love. She even gets to the point where she pleads, "Show me Paris." However, it's just as likely that Powers has taught himself to love again. If literature can teach a computer how to love, then perhaps it goes without saying (unless it needs to be said), that it can teach a human. Great works of literature might have supplied the fictitious Powers with a literary device, but another great work is also the result, the real life Richard Powers' fifth novel, "Galatea 2.2." The novel is so perfectly executed, it leaves us pleading, in the words of Helen, "Richard...Richard. Tell me another one."

From Midnight Children on, seems that Roshdie’s preference moves tward the language rather than the narration itself. Comparing ”The ground beneath of her feet” and ”Midnight children” one comes to a more beautiful language but less interesting events. در اثار رشدی زبان از زیبایی خارق العاده ای برخوردار است. واژه هایی که رشدی در زبان انگلیسی ابداع می کند و عمدتن مخلوطی از انگلیسی هندی- بریتانیایی ست، گاه به توجیه صحنه، عمل یا شخصیت در روایت کمک شایانی می کند. بسیاری از واژه های ابداعی رشدی در انکلیسی بریتانیای امروز به راحتی جا افتاده و معمول شده است. در "زمین زیر پای او(زن)" آن چنان که در "بچه های نیمه شب" و "شرم" دیده ایم، داستان دیگر به اندازه ی فضا سازی و بیان منظور از اهمیت بالایی برخوردار نیست. . ـ هارون و دریای قصه، سینا سلیمی، سوئد، 1995 در سال 1997 رمان "پیتر بنشتد" کارگردان بریتانیایی این رمان رشدی را برای صحنه ی تیاتر تنظیم کرد که در تیاتر "ترا نوا" در کپنهاگ و یکی دو شهر دیگر دانمارک به روی صحنه رفت.

This book was hard to choke down the first time through, but when you reread it, you discover all the subtleties and sublime sweetness in each character. It's most definitely worth a couple of ganders!

A good easy read. Almost identical in plot line to the DaVinci code (but not as good). If you need a beach read, this could work.

I loved this book! The descriptions are phenomenal, and I don't ususally like descriptions. I feel like I've been to Istanbul and Budapest just from reading the book! It's a work of art and I highly recommend it.

I read this after having seen the BBC movie with Ciaran Hinds. Austen can be quite silly, but I am a sucker for the romance. And the silliness.

Fdd 6. Sınıf Din Kültürü Ve Ahlak Bilgisi Konu Anlatımlı TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: FDD Yayınları

While reading the first chapter, I thought that this was just a rehash of other books that I read due to the examples:Chris Rock, Mozart,Google. As I moved through the book, I was pleased that Sims had a number of fresh examples about Pixar, HP, Obama,General McMaster,the architect Frank Gehry,Steve Jobs, Tim Russert and Agile development of Software. Sims who has a VC background did a good job of interviewing and researching. The book narrative is 150 pages which to me is just right. I like that he concluded with a lengthy further reading chapter and a chapter on his sources.
