This essay shares the author’s ideas, alluding to depth psychology, philosophy, and comparative culture, particularly East-West differences in the basic worldviews people can have, such as I-Thou, Us vs. Them or We-They, I-Nature or I-Universe, with Asian people tending to live more collectively in a social reality. The essay includes Zen insights…[Read more]

Students in analytical writing courses can struggle to fully grasp the difference between observing/describing features of a text and making interpretive claims rooted in close reading and analysis of those features. This multi-part class activity uses color coding and generative AI to establish a clearer framework for students to understand the…[Read more]

A lesson plan outlining a two-part activity that establishes a framework within which students productively wrestle with the place of generative AI in their learning and writing processes, thereby creating the space for instructor and students to arrive at a collective agreement about the use of these tools in the course grounded in a clear set of…[Read more]

This study highlights the transitions that indigenous medicine and indigenous medical practices have undergone in Asante. It uses a qualitative approach anchored on both primary and secondary sources. The primary data sources include interviews and documentary data derived from reports in historical archives. Anchored on rational choice contingent…[Read more]

A high percentage of theatrical prints and manuscripts from the aurisecular period have never been transcribed in an analogical or, of course, digital format. It is therefore impossible to use these documents to carry out searches of our interest or for the valuable computer analyses (stylometry, topic modelling, sentiment analysis, etc.) that…[Read more]

TEXORO: Textos del Siglo de Oro es una herramienta desarrollada por Álvaro Cuéllar y Germán Vega que permite realizar búsquedas en un amplio corpus de teatro del Siglo de Oro. Es nuestra intención que un futuro crezca ofreciendo otros tipos de textos fuera del ámbito teatral.

El proyecto ETSO: Estilometría aplicada al Teatro del Siglo de Oro surge del interés del investigador Álvaro Cuéllar y del catedrático Germán Vega García-Luengos en aplicar las nuevas herramientas informáticas a los numerosos problemas de autoría que presenta el teatro del Siglo de Oro español. Este portal trata de ofrecer análisis que puedan arr…[Read more]

Finding the accurate date of texts is one of the most puzzling challenges in the study of Spanish aurisecular theater. Stylometry, the computer technique centered on the comparison of texts based on their writing, which has been successfully used in recent years to solve authorship questions, can also serve to shed light on this issue. In this…[Read more]

Claramonte is one of the playwrights who has had the most unusual fate in our theatrical heritage. Reviled by early scholars as a plagiarist, recaster and, ultimately, a second-order author, in recent decades he has reemerged as a possible author of capital works of our theatre. Using stylometric techniques that have been proven to be effective…[Read more]

This article proposes the inclusion in Lope’s repertoire of La francesa Laura, a comedia preserved in an anonymous manuscript of the BNE, never before related to the playwright. The investigation started thanks to the results of the process in the Transkribus and ETSO platforms, which pointed out the close relationship of the lexicon with the…[Read more]

La datación supone una de las cuestiones con más interrogantes en el estudio del teatro aurisecular español. La estilometría, técnica informática basada en la comparación de textos en función de sus usos escriturales y que está utilizándose con aparente acierto en los últimos años para arrojar luz sobre el problema de la autoría, puede servir…[Read more]

Claramonte es uno de los dramaturgos que más extraña suerte ha corrido de nuestro patrimonio teatral. Vilipendiado por los primeros estudiosos como plagiario, refundidor y, en definitiva, autor de segundo orden, en las últimas décadas ha resurgido como posible responsable de obras capitales de nuestro teatro. A través del empleo de técnicas estil…[Read more]

La refundición supone un fenómeno recurrente en el teatro aurisecular español. Existen numerosos casos en los que un dramaturgo parte de un texto previo y lo modifica para conformar una nueva obra reutilizando un cierto número de versos. En ocasiones, el paso del tiempo confunde la obra primigenia con la refundición y resulta complicado esta…[Read more]

Un elevado porcentaje de impresos y manuscritos teatrales del periodo aurisecular no ha sido nunca transcrito en un formato analógico ni, por supuesto, digital. Es imposible, por tanto, emplear estos documentos para realizar búsquedas de nuestro interés o para los valiosos análisis informáticos (estilometría, topic modelling, detección de sentim…[Read more]

El trabajo propone que se considere la inclusión en el repertorio de Lope de La francesa Laura, una comedia conservada en un manuscrito anónimo de la BNE, nunca antes relacionada con el dramaturgo. La investigación se inició a la vista de los resultados de su procesamiento en las plataformas Transkribus y ETSO, que señalaban la estrecha rela…[Read more]
