xcl-noun

աւթողոփոս • (awtʻołopʻos)

→ Old Georgian: ავთოლოფოსი (avtoloposi)

Attested only in the Physiologus, transliterating Ancient Greek ἀνθόλοψ (anthólops), mistakenly reading αν- (an-) as αυ- (au-). Attested with numerous corrupted variant readings.

Է երէ ինչ, որ կոչի աւթողոփոս (var. թողոքայ, թոզռիայ, աթողփողք, ութողփոքր)․ գազան սաստիկ էրէ․ մինչ որսորդաց չէ հնար զնա ի բուռն արկանել։ Եղջիւրս ունի երկայնս եւ սղոցաձեւս, մինչեւ զծառս մեծամեծս եւ բարձունս սղոցել․ եւ յորժամ ծարաւեսցի, գնայ յԱրածանի գետ եւ ըմբէ ջուր։

5th century, with changes and additions in later centuries, Baroyaxōs [Physiologus] Earliest recension (TR).3.1–4

There is an animal called autholops, an exceedingly fierce animal; until the hunters are unable to catch it. It has long horns in the shape of a saw, so that it is able to saw very large and high trees. And when it is thirsty, it goes to the river Aracani and drinks water.

The origin is unknown. The word superficially resembles ᾰ̓́νθος (ánthos) + ὤψ (ṓps) and some older authorities suggested this as the etymology, but there is reason to think it is instead a corruption of some other, possibly foreign, word.

cando os animais falaban

Literally, “When animals used to speak”.

No tempo en que falaban os animales, achou unha vez un raposo moi larpeiro a un galo erguido na pola dun carballo e puxose a parolar co el diste xeito:
 — Bos días nos dé Deus amigo, como che vai?
 — Ben e a ti?
 — Non che oio ben; por qué non baixas? Sei que desconfías? Non sabes que hai unha orde que di que agora nin os gatos poden comer aos ratos, nin os raposos aos galos?

Once upon a time, a gluttonous fox found a rooster standing on an oak's branch, and he began chitchatting with the rooster in this manner:
 “Good morning on behalf of God, my friend, how do you do?”
 “Well, and you?”
 “I can barely hear you, why don't you come down? Or is it that you distrust? Don't you know that there is an order that says that now cats can't eat mice nor foxes roosters?”

pulls to publish (present singular third-person)
pulling to publish (participle present)
pulled to publish (participle past)
pulled to publish (past)

Such a definition allows us to consider the implications of ‘pulling to publish’ Twilight fanfics.

2014 August, Joseph Brennan, David Large, “‘Let's Get a Bit of Context’: Fifty Shades and the Phenomenon of ‘Pulling to Publish’ in Twilight Fan Fiction”, in Media International Australia, volume 152, number 1, page 28:

E. L. James’s 50 Shades of Grey (originally a Twilight fan fiction) has enjoyed tremendous success, inspiring other fan fiction authors to ‘pull to publish’, particularly via new fan-launched digital publishing houses […]

2015, Jessica Seymour, Jenny Roth, & Monica Flegel, "The Lizzie Bennet Diaries: Fan-creator interactions and new online storytelling", Australasian Journal of Popular Culture, Volume 4, Numbers 2-3, June 2015, page 108

While attention capital drove her success, it was not entirely positive: the fan community perceived James’ “filing off the serial numbers” (deleting identifiable references to its source text) and pulling to publish as a betrayal of the community and an exploitation of community efforts to improve the work through feedback.

2019, R. Lyle Skains, Digital Authorship: Publishing in the Attention Economy, page 68:

ecofiction

After the publication of The Poisonwood Bible, Kingsolver rose to a position of authority in feminist writings and ecofiction for her command of political allegory set during the Congo's turbulent emergence from colonialism.

2015, Mary Ellen Snodgrass, Barbara Kingsolver: A Literary Companion, McFarland, →ISBN, page 3:

This coming-of-age story signals that eco-fiction has come of age as well: wilder, more reckless and more breathtaking than previously thought, a wager and a promise that what emerges from the 21st century will be as good as any from the 20th, or the 19th.

2017 May 5, Wai Chee Dimock, “There’s No Escape From Contamination Above the Toxic Sea”, in The New York Times, →ISSN:

In 1941, George R. Stewart’s novel “Storm” — chronicling the 12-day life of a fictional cyclone — was published. It is, arguably, the first modern eco-fiction novel.

2021 November 16, Omar El Akkad, “Neal Stephenson’s Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World”, in The New York Times, →ISSN:

Fiction that deals with environmental issues and the relation between humanity and the physical environment.

Latin lover

I began to consider the contradictions in these descriptions: that although Mastroianni, as commodity, was often marketed as the quintessential Italian man, his characters betrayed instead a much more conflicting image of Italian masculinity than the category of Latin lover allowed.

litfic

True. But as many genre writers who otherwise learn well in classes have found out, if they want to learn writing, it's hard to do it in a group that sneers at anything not litfic.

2002 December 20, Deirdre Saoirse Moen, “Seton Hill University”, in rec.arts.sf.composition:

It's a fascinating distinction, and one that also has the neat effect of moving the debate on from the contentious territory of the SF/litfic turfwar into that of value-neutral literary theory.

2014 July 18, Thomas Christie, Notional Identities: Ideology, Genre and National Identity in Popular Scottish Fiction Since the Seventies, Cambridge Scholars Publishing, →ISBN, page 202:

I was once described on Twitter as a “litfic writer” who was “Quite Put Out” by a genre writer's mindless repetition of the above tropes[…]

literary fiction

I don't think "A is for Apple" qualifies as literary fiction.

The present book is mainly about literary fiction, because this is where the confusion is most profound, but in some contexts it may be useful or interesting to include non-fiction.

huldre

Learned borrowing from Norwegian hulder, with the same meaning.

All these things, it was said, must have a cause, and from ignorance of nature, joined to superstition and a lively imagination, the idea suggested itself of conjuring up beings, to whom all these phenomena might be ascribed, and who, according to the places of sojourn assigned them, were called Forest-trolls, Huldres, Mountain-trolls, Vættir, Elves, Dwarfs, Nisser, Mares, etc.

1851, Benjamin Thorpe, Northern Mythology, volume II, page xiii:

One time a huldre was present at a gathering, where everyone wanted to dance with the pretty stranger, but in the midst of the merriment, the young fellow who was dancing with her, caught sight of her long tail.

1896, William A. Craigie, Scandinavian Folk-lore, page 167:

(Norwegian folklore) A type of supernatural being in the shape of a beautiful woman with a cow's tail.

In Norway, the Huldre drive cattle before them, which are as blue as they are themselves.

1828, T. Crofton Croker, Fairy Legends and Traditions of the South of Ireland, volume 3, page 138:

"Well, the first time I came across the huldre, I was about eight or nine years old, and it was somewhere up on the main road between Bjerke and Mo."

1886, Peter Christen Asbjørnsen, translated by H.L. Brækstad, Folk and Fairy Tales, page 27:

The mention of the tail relates the wood-fairy to the Huldre who were very beautiful except for a long tail which they always tried to hide, as the Wood Elves hid their hollow back.

Queequeg

This type of programme envisaged might do something towards combating the 'Queequeg Syndrome', which is an induced psychiatric illness, due to the patient being treated as abnormal. The cause is similar to that of institutional neurosis, but it affects patients outside hospital and is due to the attitudes of family, general practitioner, community workers and society. The patient is now expected to be more normal than normal.

1969, John Anthony Whitehead, Morgan David Enoch, “Do We Need Psychiatric Hospitals?”, in Mental Health, volume 28 (Autumn), London: National Association for Mental Health, →ISSN, →OCLC, →PMID, pages 22–24:

After that I was regarded as comic. I became a ‘coconut’—someone brown on the outside, white on the inside. I was the bleached academic—more white than the anglo professors. In my classes several students glared at me, clearly seeing in me the person they feared ever becoming. Who was I, after all, but some comic Queequeg, holding close to my breast a reliquary containing the white powder of a dead European civilization?

1982, Richard Rodriguez, “Profession”, in Hunger of Memory: The Education of Richard Rodriguez, Boston: David R. Godine, Publisher, →ISBN, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 162:

For Ishmael, unparented and self-abhoring, accession requires that he find, then lose himself in a Queequeg, preparatory to finding, then losing himself in an Ahab, both of whom he will, at the end of the adventure, kill.

2000, Suzanne B. Stein, The Pusher and the Sufferer: An Unsentimental Reading of Moby Dick, Garland Publishing, →ISBN, →LCCN, page 36:

manga mark

LL-Q1860 (eng)-Flame, not lame-manga mark.wav

Compound of manga + mark. Compare Japanese 漫符(まんぷ) (manpu, “manga icon”).

Cultural learning experiences are required to understanding manga''' marks. For example, adults of Botswana interpreted a sweat mark used in Western comics as blood, rain, and tears (Byram and Garforth, 1980).

2006, David Shwalb, Jun Nakazawa, Barbara J. Shwalb, Applied Developmental Psychology: Theory, Practice, and Research from Japan, page 29:

In a previous preliminary experiment, we determined facial expressions for the robot KOBIAN-R with manga marks. Those expressions included four manga marks as “Cross popping veins” for “Anger”, “Tear mark” for “Sadness”, “Vertical lines” for “Fear” and “Wrinkle” for “Disgust”.

2014, Tatsuhiro Kishi, Hajime Futaki, Gabriele Trovato, Nobutsuna Endo, A Robotic Head that Displays Japanese “Manga” Marks:

Nakazawa (2005b) asked the meaning of the twelve manga''' marks to a sample of kindergartners, first-, fourth-, sixth-, and eighth-graders. Understanding of manga''' marks progressed along with grade level (Figure 7.2)

2016, Jun Nakazawa, “Manga literacy and manga comprehension in Japanese children”, in Neil Cohn, editor, The Visual Narrative Reader, page 248:

The comprehensive techniques that composes manga is immature. But there is a very high expressiveness in some aspects, such as the creation of a face viewed from the front and the expression of expressions using manga marks.
