In diesem Open-Access Buch wird Hate Speech (oder synonym Hassrede)
im Internet interdisziplinär diskutiert. Die Beiträge, die aus
den Bereichen Linguistik, Sprachtechnologie,
Informationswissenschaft und Politikwissenschaft stammen,
beleuchten zentrale Fragen im Zusammenhang mit diesem Phänomen.
Hierzu zählen aus sprachwissenschaftlicher Sicht zunächst die
vielfältigen direkten und indirekten Erscheinungsformen von Hate
Speech und ihre Rezeption. Aus informationswissenschaftlicher und
computerlinguistischer Sicht wird der Forschungsstand in Bezug auf
verschiedene maschinelle Verfahren zur automatischen Erkennung von
Hate Speech wiedergegeben. Überdies wird erläutert, wie solche
Verfahren evaluiert werden können. Daher stellt sich aus
politikwissenschaftlicher Sicht nicht nur die Frage, wie digitale
Hassrede derzeit reguliert wird und wie sich diese
Regulierungsverfahren künftig entwickeln könnten, sondern auch,
wie die automatische Erkennung reguliert werden mĂĽsste.

establish the strongest clan in all the land, using his
silver-tongued Talker skills to unite assassins and heroes under
his leadership.

FOR MY FRIENDS, EVERYTHING: FOR MY ENEMIES, THE LAW! Noel Stollen,
that coldhearted handsome devil, will stop at nothing to follow in
his grandfather's footsteps and become the world's strongest
seeker. Though a mere Talker with buffing abilities, he takes over
the party of adventurers known as Blue Beyond. But when the former
leader and his woman steal party funds, Noel arranges for the most
horrific of punishments-selling them into legal slavery! Now in
need of new teammates, can Noel resist the offer of Alma, who
claims to be the descendent of the world's most
notorious...assassin?
A hundred years have now gone by since in the midsummer of 1882
Pierre Duhem, a graduate of College Stanislas, completed with
brilliant success his entrance exams to the Ecole Normale
Superieure and embarked on his career as a theoretical physicist.
His father, a textile salesman, hoped that Hierre would pursue a
career in business, one of the few professional fields where
perhaps he would not have succeeded. Not that young Duhem lacked
sense for the practical. He could have easily made a name for
himself as an artist had he developed professionally his skill to
draw portraits and landscapes. His ability to make a point and his
readiness to join in a debate, could have earned him fame as a
lawyer. A potential actor was in sight when he entertained friends
with mimicry. That as a student of physics he entered and stayed
first in his class at the Ecole Normale, did not thwart his talents
for the life sciences. No less a biologist than Pasteur tried to
obtain Duhem for assistant. His command of Greek and Latin would
have secured him a career as a classicist. He was a Frenchman, not
to be met too often, whose rightful ad miration for and mastery of
his native tongue, did not prove a barrier to the major modern
languages. As one who taught himself the complex art of medieval
paleo graphy, he could easily have mastered the many auxiliary
sciences needed by a consummate historian."
When it first appeared, Dead on Arrival announced the emergence of
a strong new voice in African - American verse. Fresh and
unadorned, these poems were deeply rooted in Jaki Shelton Green's
own life and family. It quickly sold out, and an augmented seconde
edition was published in 1983. Over the past decade, as Green's
audience has grown, Dead on Arrival sold out again, and both
editions have become collector's items. Carolina Wren is pleased to
reissue Dead on Arrival so that new readers may now see the
development of Green's voice over two decades of poetic
achievement.
