Full textTo investigate expert performance this study developed a model of text description that identified semantic units in the description protocols as a set of possible "discursive patterns." A discursive pattern identifies the text unit being described along with the point of reference of the description, that is, from the point of view of the reader, the author, or simply the text.
The results indicate that students' descriptions closely paraphrased the text, repeating either the narrative events or the characters' speech, while experts' descriptions reflected higher-level references to narrative structure or the function of the dialogue which were derived either from the text or from prior knowledge. Experts relied on specific information in the text as a support for more inferential statements. In addition, experts commented more extensively on the language of the text. Experts also included references to the author, the reader and the relationship between the two. It seems that experts view the text as the result of deliberate linguistic and conceptual choices made by an author and awareness of these choices appears to guide their descriptions.

Full textDonnelly, Daniel. "The Madrigal as literary criticism: Veronese settings of Ariosto's «Orlando furioso»." Thesis, McGill University, 2009. http://digitool.Library.McGill.CA:80/R/?func=dbin-jump-full&object_id=32563.
Full textCette thèse décrit l'importance des académies amateures en tant que lieu de consommation d'œuvres musicales et littéraires dans l'Italie du cinquecento. En se positionnant entre les sphères publiques et privées, l'environnement culturel des académies fut très propice à la « lecture » analytique de textes par la musique. Lors de lezioni musicales d'extraits de l'épopée chevaleresque Orlando furioso d'Arioste, Jachet de Berchem, Vincenzo Ruffo et Jan Nasco se montrèrent sensibles aux mêmes problèmes que les critiques littéraires contemporains (l'interprétation d'images et de métaphores), mais en même temps, ils ont également créé des interprétations émotionnelles et psychologiques complexes des subjectivités des personnages principaux d'une manière qui va au-delà de celle des critiques contemporains sur les écrits d'Arioste. L'association de ces trois compositeurs et leur musique avec l'Accademia Filarmonica di Verona suggère donc que les compositeurs eurent un rôle important à jouer lors de discussions académiques sur l'esthétique littéraire, et que le madrigal peut être vu comme une forme de critique littéraire préservant certains aspects du discours académique, autrement perdu. Mon analyse représente donc une nouvelle façon d'interpréter les madrigaux et interprète leur signification via le contexte de ce discours.
