‎Natural Language Processing in Medicine. Design, Implementation and Evaluation of an Analyser for Dutch.‎

‎Leuven, Universitaire Pers, 2000 Paperback, English, original editor's jacket, 16x24 cm., xxi-33 pp. ISBN 9789058670694.‎

‎Symbolae Facultatis Litterarum Lovaniensis - Series C : Linguistica 08. This book describes a complex computer program (implemented in Prolog by BIM) that is, thanks to the application of Natural Language Processing and Artificial Intelligence techniques, able to analyse and process the content of a (limited) set of Dutch patient discharge summaries. Such a program achieves that not only the medium but also the message of medical documents can be treated computationally, which implies the possible automation of several medico-administrative tasks. An introduction to medical language processing as well as an overview of similar international projects is included. The bulk of the effort is dedicated to modules that are specific for the Dutch language. To this aim, existing resources (for Dutch) are re-used and integrated together with original developments. As a result, an electronic dictionary (containing some 8.000 lemmas) and a morphological recogniser (and a tagger/lemmatiser as a derived product) are realised. Another important achievement is a computer grammar (for sentence analysis) with a parser. For other modules (sublanguage and discourse analysis), software that has been developed elsewhere (Linguistic String Project team of the New York University and the Service d'Informatique Medicale, Assistance Publique - Hopitaux de Paris resp.) is adapted and extended for use with Dutch. In this way, intelligent information processing becomes feasible. Two information extraction applications illustrate the potentialities of the program. The application domain is cardiology and cardiac surgery. All components of the system are situated in their theoretical framework, extensively discussed and illustrated by means of excerpts of Prolog code and figures. A thorough evaluation has been performed as well, and the results, if possible, are compared with other results of similar tests.‎

‎Vocabulary of Intellectual Life in the Middle Ages,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2003 Paperback, 482 p., 160 x 240 mm ISBN 9782503514574.‎

‎The Latin vocabulary of intellectual life in the Middle Ages has been the focus of the CIVICIMA-series: nine volumes of conference-proceedings, monographs and collective works. The series has proved convincingly that analyses of the verbal expressions of medieval intellectual life and their precise meanings is a worthwhile and rewarding task, which sharpens and deepens our understanding of education and learning in the medieval world. With this tenth volume the series has been brought to a conclusion. It serves as a handbook, a practical tool for finding information and material about a considerable number of key terms, which have been classified in four categories of ?technical vocabulary? ? terms that developed specialized meanings in the context of medieval education and learning. The first category consists of the vocabulary of schools and universities (for instance, schola, magister, universitas, etc.); the second the vocabulary of the book and book production (for instance, armarium, pecia, scriptorium, etc.); the third treats the vocabulary of teaching-methods, instruments and products of intellectual life (for instance, concordantia, disputatio, glossa, etc.); the fourth the names of the disciplines, their teachers and students (for instance, artes liberales, canonista, decretista, theologia, etc.). Terms from these four categories are treated, either individually or in groups coherent with respect to content, in short and uniform articles. Their medieval meanings are described, together with their origins, their classical meanings, their semantic development, and the historical or regional differences in meaning. Languages: English.‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 1994 Microfiche, 2331 p., on 8 microfiche., 140 x 225 mm. ISBN 9780888449221.‎

‎The fifth and most recent fascicle of the Dictionary of Old english, the letter A, consists of 1505 headwords in 2331 pages on microfiche. The material on which A is based represents a fresh look at all surviving Old English (except multiple copies of texts), an estimated three million running words. Although the Dictionary of Old English is meant to serve as a bilingual translation dictionary, it is also a historical dictionary, an inventory and description of the English language from its earliest appearance in written records, ca.600. It is intended to complement the Oxford English Dictionary for the earliest period of the language; indeed, the Dictionary of Old English will catalogue the Old English vocabulary deliberately excluded from the OED because it failed to survive past 1150. The dictionary draws on as wide a range of texts in date, dialect and genre - as possible. It differs from previous dictionaries in several important features: a listing in a simplified paradigmatic order of every spelling that is attested for a word in the dictionary corpus; frequency counts for each word in the corpus so that readers can determine what proportion of the evidence has been cited; usage labels where they are statistically significant, noting restrictions to a class of texts, to an author, or to a particular period or dialect; exhaustive citation for all words of twelve or fewer occurences.

‎Dictionnaire de l'Islam,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 1995 Hardback, 380 p., 165 x 235 mm. ISBN 9782503504018.‎

‎L'islam progresse dans le monde entier. Il predomine au Moyen-Orient, en Asie Mineure, dans le Caucase, dans le Nord du sous-continent indien, en Asie du Sud et en Indonesie, dans le Nord et l'Ouest de l'Afrique. Mais son influence s'etend egalement sur un nombre croissant de personnes dans une Europe dont l'orientation pluriculturelle est de plus en plus affirmee. La fascination, mais aussi les craintes qu'il suscite, ne sont pas liees exclusivement a sa version fondamentaliste. Bien plus que le christianisme, la religion musulmane impregne tous les domaines de la vie de ses adeptes et toutes leurs realisations: dans l'islam, la morale, le droit, la politique, la culture, la science ou encore l'histoire cherchent leur justification dans le Coran. Plus l'islam nous devient proche, plus il est urgent que nous nous penchions sur ses fondements. Le present dictionnaire constitue une ouverture unique sur l'univers complexe de l'islam. En quelque 340 articles, il traite de la doctrine theologique, des dispositions legales, des influences culturelles, des ramifications de l'histoire religieuse, de la diversite des mouvements, des objectifs strategiques mondiaux et des amorces d'un dialogue interreligieux et interculturel. L'orientation du lecteur est facilitee par des indications bibliographiques qui etendent son information et par un index detaille. Signe par d'eminents specialistes, ce Dictionnaire de l'islam est donc un ouvrage de reference sans equivalent dans le monde francophone. Languages : French.‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2003 Hardback, X+270 p., 1 b/w ill., 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503513409.‎

‎The essays in this volume, presented in honour of John O. Ward, explore the role of rhetoric in promoting reform and renewal in the Latin West from Peter Abelard (1079-1142) to Juan Luis Vives (1492-1540). Ward, who has taught for many years at the University of Sydney, has been an influential and creative force in medieval and Renaissance studies both in Australia and internationally. This volume opens with a personal memoir and bibliography of Ward's publications, as well as an overview of the study of medieval rhetoric. The first of the three sections, 'Abelard and Rhetoric', relates Abelard's rhetoric to his logic, his theology, and his relationship to Heloise. A second section, 'Voices of Reform', considers various writers (William of Malmesbury, John of Salisbury, Richard FitzNigel, and William of Ockham) who bring rhetorical techniques to bear upon analysis of social conditions. A third section, 'Rhetoric in Transition', deals with the evolution of rhetorical theory between the late fourteenth and early sixteenth centuries. The volume will be of interest not just to specialists in rhetoric, but to all concerned with issues of reform and renewal in European culture during the period 1100-1540. Languages : English.‎

‎Fictions of the Inner Life. Religious Literature and Formation of the Self in the Eleventh and Twelfth Centuries,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2004 Hardback, X+264 p., 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503515144.‎

‎Interiorization and a trend towards a consideration of the nature of personal experience have long been recognized as important elements in the changing landscape of the religious culture of the eleventh and twelfth centuries. The homo interior is at the centre of the religious writings of that time, and the 'inner man' is a pivotal concept for making sense of the literature of religious formation. Monastic writers try to provide their readers with a 'script' to enact in themselves, in order to form their inner self, as the way to ascend to the knowledge of God. Interiority, however, is not a straightforward aspect of human existence with an unchanging meaning. The notion as it is used by medieval monastic authors gives expression to a specific understanding of what a human being was thought to be, quite different from later self-perceptions. Because of this difference, when they write 'histories of the self' historians and philosophers often pass over the Middle Ages. On the other hand, in histories of mysticism the twelfth century is often read through the lens of later mysticism. This book explores the notion of interiority via four influential authors of the eleventh and twelfth centuries, and the way in which notions about interiority function in their pedagogy. The concepts governing how the homo interior is fashioned are developed within age-old monastic and theological traditions. Medieval ideas about man as imago Dei, monastic reading culture and biblical exegesis are only a few of the elements of these traditions. The choice of authors has been guided by the wish to encompass and highlight various aspects of the eleventh- and twelfth-century notions of 'inner life': monastic and eremitical tradition in Peter Damian, theological-anthropological concepts in Hugh of Saint-Victor, the importance of exegetical procedures in Richard of Saint-Victor, and the role of experience in William of Saint-Thierry. These authors illustrate what was then conceptually possible when it came to thinking about the inner life. Their notions of the inner self are an intriguing part of a continuing history of conceptions of the self and of how it may be fashioned. Languages : English.‎

‎Re-Membering the Present. The Medieval German Poet-Minstrel in Cultural Context,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2005 Hardback, XIV+354 p., 4 b/w ill., 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503515168.‎

‎This book examines the social and cultural conditions that governed performance art in the German Middle Ages from 1170 to 1400. Poet-performers are central to understanding both literature and performance art because these entertainers, more than any other group, influenced the creation, dissemination, and interpretation of the medieval poetic oeuvre. Performance theory is used as a framework throughout. Since no social history of poet-performers exists in English, part I presents a social history that re-examines what is known about social status, cultural image and employment. Part II investigates the affective nature of performance and focuses on poet-composer-performers. This study argues that the techniques and principles of performance (body movement, gesture, voice modulation, instrumentation) and the goals of creating a memorable, even electrifying experience for audiences determine the performer's lifestyle and also the thematic and rhetorical strategies of their compositions. The itinerant poet-performer presented himself as a moral judge and critic of epoch-making political events. His performances transform time, place and people and thus become a socializing process that can change people's attitudes. Poet-minstrels were capable of re-membering the listeners' memories of the past during the intense present of the performance. Readings of several texts are offered, including romances, the political songs of well-known poet-performers (i.e. Walther von der Vogelweide) and the gnomic poets (Spruchdichter) whose songs have been neglected until now. The songs are quite intricate and multivalent as they masterfully display an aesthetic totally integrated with their performative context. Languages : English.‎
