On the basis of the analysis of maturity examination works written in the period of 2013–2015, attempts are made to find the answers to the most important questions: whether the written maturity examination essays comply with the requirements for styles (sub-styles) they are assigned to and what functional style they have to be ascribed to, what relation of stylistics with rhetoric is like and how an essay is (or has to be) composed, as well as whether assessment of style in essays is always justified. The article consistently presents how the main requirements for a stylistic language are introduced in the Lithuanian language textbooks for 11th-12th forms, as well as discusses the cases of unmotivated and inaccurate marking of style errors in essays, identified during the research on empiric data. The conclusions are drawn that, regrettably, the conception of the essay written in the state maturity examination of Lithuanian language and literature has not been properly considered and has remained unclear till now. The existing agreement that an argumentative essay of state maturity examination is of publicist style and a literary essay has to be of science popularisation sub-style reveal the theoretical incompleteness and the absence of systematic approach to the problem. Teachers and researchers have to come to a unanimous agreement on the style, sub-style and genre of the examination essay. The examination evaluators have to approach each essay as an original work rather than to assess it following the established text writing rules. It is necessary to determine the deviations from style and to reduce the gap between the teaching process and assessment. Keywords: essay, rhetoric, culture of style, stylistics, state maturity examination.

{"title":"Complex Sentences and their Punctuation in English Texts Composed by Latvian Students","authors":"Zigrīda Vinčela","doi":"10.15823/zz.2016.5","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15823/zz.2016.5","url":null,"abstract":"Comma use in Latvian and English complex sentences differs significantly and this can cause major problems to Latvian users of English. In particular, the dependent clause that follows the independent clause is normally separated by a comma in Latvian complex sentences (Blinkena, 2009), whereas comma use/non-use in English complex sentences (Downing, Locke, 2006) depends on the semantic relation between the independent and the dependent clause. These comma use differences, as previous research reveals (Farneste, 2006b), can cause challenges in English complex sentence punctuation to students whose native language is Latvian. The goal of this study is to research Latvian students’ punctuation of English complex sentences extracted from a corpus of essays. The analysis covers the cases of nominal and relative dependent clauses that are tightly related to the independent clause they follow. Normally, as Downing and Locke (2006) note, such dependent clauses are not separated by a comma in English texts. The analysis shows that a strong semantic relation between the clauses has been relevantly recognised by students in numerous examples, which they have relevantly punctuated. However, the results also reveal unnecessary separations of relative and nominal clauses from the independent clause by a comma. These findings call for the focusing of students’ attention on the role of the semantic relation of clauses in English complex sentence punctuation by contrasting these sentences with the relevant complex sentences found in Latvian texts. In addition, further analysis of various sentence types and their punctuation in student-composed texts of different communicative purposes is required.","PeriodicalId":30077,"journal":{"name":"Zmogus ir Zodis","volume":"18 1","pages":"96-105"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67242172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By analysing the pseudonymous work Either / Or, it is argued that the ethical stage is much more closely related to Kantian ethics rather that G. Hegel’s ethical theory. In his three letters the pseudonymous author Judge William proposes an ethical project, which has overtones of both I. Kant and G. Hegel. Nevertheless, the article argues that the key elements and influences generate from I. Kant. Already the first two letters of Judge William allow to reinterpret his ethical project as much more Kantian than Hegelian. For Judge William, differently to G. Hegel and similarly to I. Kant, ethical will is significant, because it performs the function of individual’s selfdetermination. Also Judge William has in common with I. Kant the view of the very possibility to think good and evil – they both are skeptical towards such a possibility, as they think that the division between good and evil is absolute, thus, not subject to rational analysis. Also, for Judge William duty is found and determined inwardly, and not synchronized with the universal ethical system, as Hegel suggests. Finally, the third letter fo Judge William clearly shows a much more intimate conceptual relation of his ethics with Kantian ethics rather than Hegel’s theory. Finally, it is argued that both for Kant and Judge William the notion of God is merely a rational postulate which is invoked in order to play a normative role in ethics. Keywords : Kierkegaard, Judge William, Hegel, Kant, ethics.

The experimental video project created by Lithuanian artist Andrius Sarapovas is interdisciplinary, comprising of music, dance, and poetry. In the project, different art lines run separately, parallel or in different directions, are full of cracks, and at the same time create unity through the invisible links. Our question is: How does G. Deleuze and F. Guattari’s mention of “raw sounds” in What is Philosophy? stimulate the appearance of the art’s machine, vibration and clinches between the different art lines in the composition Silver Dust? Using Deleuzoguattarian concepts of crack and flesh, the arrangement of composition, the rearrangement of characters in art machine, and the acting of a dark precursor is analyzed. The conclusion is that A. Sarapovas tries to compound raw sound / noise, unexpectedly coming into music and poetry and the raw view in image (image behind the scene) and allows for their interconnection during the montage, opening up the conditions for vibrations and couplings between heterogeneous elements and division. Consequently, sounds are held as G. Deleuze and F. Guattari state, in their “extinction”, “production and development” by the multimedia art machine.","PeriodicalId":30077,"journal":{"name":"Zmogus ir Zodis","volume":"17 1","pages":"50-60"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67240229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
