AbstractProper Names and Their Derivatives in Artificial Intelligence Terminology – This article presents the results of a study on a topic which has received relatively little attention from terminologists: the place of proper names and their derived forms in the formation of scientific and technical terms. The study focusses on the field of artificial intelligence: the morphosyntactic patterns of onomastic forms used in the field; the complex onomastic terminological units seen from the point of view of the proper noun and its referent; and finally, these forms as examined from the point of view of their base unit.

AbstractTo shed light on the numerous dark areas surrounding Husserl's ideas about pure logic and the relationship between his formal logic and his transcendental logic, and so provide an accurate characterisation of his Mannigfaltigkeitslehre, a close look is taken at how, by advocating a theory of deductive systems, or axiomatic systems as the highest task of pure logic, Husserl sought to resolve certain thorny problems he encountered when writing the Philosophy of Arithmetic. Those problems are described. Then, his ideas about axiomatization and manifolds are drawn together from the various sources now available to provide a more complete picture of his Mannigfaltigkeitslehre. In conclusion, it is shown how Husserl considered his theory to be a solution to the problems leading to its development.

Guimarães Rosa describes as an “irrational autobiography” his novel Grande Sertão : Veredas (1956) – the hero, Riobaldo, is a bard/poet who submits to a Faustian pact to take over Hermogen (the arbitrary sign) and finally receive Otacilia (the literary prize) ; however, this ends at the cost of Diadorim's loss (Deodoron, God's gift : the soul). At the same time, in a poetic register close to holographic oraliture, Guimarães Rosa claims to have written his masterpiece in a state of possession. And while he adjourned, by admitted and claimed superstition, his entry into the Brazilian Academy of Letters for four years, he mysteriously died three days after the ceremony. Enigma or staging ? By means of factual clues carefully planted on the interpretative paths, and following a scenario completely new in the universal history of literature, the novelist composes in minute details an autobiography irreducible to a version that would be permanently framed by graphic printing: this autobiography can only be conceived in the poetic space of oraliture (in its collective and gregarious social manifestations, beyond the universe of the printed letter). In order to transform his own existence into a living legend and to avoid the hazardous incompleteness of the human condition (as well as the reductive limitations that mark the advent of the written text), Rosa narrates the story of a life (his own), under the pretext of a “death foretold”, through a textuality that is exclusively accomplished in the imagination of her readers.
