| ENG4036 | Digital Poetry | 3 | 6 | Major | Bachelor/Master | - | No | ||
| This course will investigate the advantages and disadvantages of computers for contemporary poets and poetry readers. Focusing on computer poems in English, we will address literary questions raised by digital technology. Do computer algorithms expand the possibilities of poetry, or do they merely reveal that poetry has always been algorithmic? Do digital poems enhance or diminish the agency of human poets? Do the interactive features of some digital poems genuinely empower readers? The modernist Ezra Pound famously said that poets should “MAKE IT NEW” and that “Poetry is news that stays news.” Most poets today would endorse these statements. But digital poetry’s technological modernity has a strong tendency to doom it to obsolescence, since digital poetry depends on software and hardware that will not endure. We will ponder the implications of this paradox. We will also study the formal devices that distinguish digital poetry from most print and oral poetry: hypertext, animation, scrolling. We may also explore the connections between digital poetry and developments in analog literature: modernism, concrete poetry, the Beat Generation, Fluxus, language writing, and conceptual writing. Though our classes will primarily concern pre-ChatGPT verse, we will examine how earlier digital poets engaged with the possibilities of artificial intelligence. | |||||||||

| ENG4037 | Experimental Design and Data Analysis for Linguists | 3 | 6 | Major | Bachelor/Master | - | No | ||
| 이 강좌는 실험언어학에 관한 기초 과정이다. 이 수업에서는 (i) 언어학에서 제기되는 연구주제들을 어떻게 실험적으로 고찰할 수 있는지, 또 (ii) 실험 결과가 언어학 이론에 어떠한 새로운 관점을 제공할 수 있는지에 대해 살펴본다. 학생들은 언어학 분야의 흥미를 갖는 특정한 영역에서 이론을 검증하는데 적합한 실험 설계 및 방법론을 탐구하며, 파일럿 실험을 직접 설계하고 분석하는 프로젝트 방식의 학습 기회를 갖는다. 또한 이 수업을 통해 학술회의에 참가할 수 있는 역량을 키우고 언어학 실험실 연구에 독립적으로 참여할 수 있는 기초를 다지게 된다. | |||||||||

| ENG4038 | Seminar on Experimental Linguistics | 3 | 6 | Major | Bachelor/Master | - | No | ||
| This course provides an introduction to experimental linguistics. The focus of this class will be on understanding of how (i) research questions in linguistics can be operationalized experimentally and (ii) experimental results can provide insights into the theory of language. Students will explore experimental design and methodologies well-suited for investigating research questions in their particular language areas of interest. The course has a strong lab component, and students will independently design, implement, and analyze a pilot experiment. This class allows students to prepare for future conference participation and potential independent lab work. | |||||||||

| ENG5030 | Psycholinguistics | 3 | 6 | Major | Master/Doctor | 1-4 | - | No | |
| The course is an introduction to the psychological processes by which humans produce and understand sentences in conversation, the means by which these processes arise in the child, and their bases in the brain. It deals with the following topics (among others): (1) Speech Perception, the process of detecting distinct 'sounds' in speech signals; (2) Lexical Access, the process of 'looking up' words in a mental dictionary; (3) Syntactic Parsing, the process of discovering the structure of sentences; (4) Semantic Interpretation, the process of using syntactic structures, word meaning and general world knowledge to interpret what we hear; (5) Language Acquisition, the process by which a child becomes able to produce and understand sentences of his or her native language(s), (f) Neurolinguistics, the study of the way language functions are implemented in the brain. | |||||||||
| ENG5034 | English Semantics II | 3 | 6 | Major | Master/Doctor | 1-4 | - | No | |
| The question of the complex relationship between language, experience and the mind has been an important topic in semantics as well as in linguistics and cognitive science generally. The aim of this course is to introduce the basic tenets of a cognitive approach to the relationship between language structure, meaning, experience and the mind and to consider how this approach might help us gain insights into issues concerning the experiential basis of linguistic meaning, the relationship of syntax and semantics, cross-cultural communication, language learning and language teaching. Starting from basic concepts and phenomena in semantics, this course provides an extensive discussion of the best research in the field of semantics and pragmatics from the last two decades. | |||||||||
