The Way

Conjunctive adverbials or simply conjuncts represent specific sentence elements contributing to the overall semantic coherence of a text. Their use or omission depends entirely on the decision of the author of the text, the way he or she perceives and intends to convey a particular type of connection between its individual parts. In the present linguistic study of the literary work—the self-selected novel “Jane Eyre”—we observe and subsequently specify and evaluate occurrence of conjunctive adverbials in the text with the focus on their particular semantic categories and positions within a sentence.

The Relationship

This paper makes an attempt to analyse ecomasculinity in Edward’s Abbey’s Fire on the Mountain. The natural environment and ecology are altered by man either positively or negatively depending on what man thinks about himself in relation to nature around him. The relationship between nature and culture inintimately woven and any attempt to severe the bond could be disastrous. Man’s peaceful co-existence with nature makes him realize the importance of maintaining the ecological balance. However, indiscriminate poaching, deforestation and other exploitative activities have ruined man’s chances of preserving the environment. The novel exposes the significance of living in perfect harmony with nature, thereby defining the ecomasculine self that proves that it could care for the environment. Exploitative forces are too strong for the protagonist who has to give up his life fighting against the onslaught of modernity. The paper critiques man’s callous attitude to nature and simultaneously warns mankind of impending danger of total annihilation of mankind due to ecological imbalance.

Task Sets

The presentation of auditory oddball stimuli (novels) among otherwise repeated sounds (standards) triggers a well-identified chain of electrophysiological responses: The detection of acoustic change (mismatch negativity), the involuntary orientation of attention to (P3a) and its reorientation from the novel. Behaviorally, novels reduce performance in an unrelated visual task (novelty distraction). Past studies of the cross-modal capture of attention by acoustic novelty have typically discarded from their analysis the data from the standard trials immediately following a novel, despite some evidence in mono-modal oddball tasks of distraction extending beyond the presentation of deviants/novels (postnovelty distraction). The present study measured novelty and postnovelty distraction and examined the hypothesis that both types of distraction may be underpinned by common frontally-related processes by comparing young and older adults. Our data establish that novels delayed responses not only on the current trial and but also on the subsequent standard trial. Both of these effects increased with age. We argue that both types of distraction relate to the reconfiguration of task-sets and discuss this contention in relation to recent electrophysiological studies.
