'Ad modum floris': Petrarch’s Narcissus between the Rerum vulgarium fragmenta and Triumphi by Southerden, F

“…This article analyses Petrarch's treatment of Narcissus in his vernacular poetry, focusing on his inclusion of an aspect of the myth not usually found in medieval vernacular rewritings of Ovid's Metamorphoses: the flower which seals Narcissus's metamorphosis. Setting Petrarch's flower-Narcissus in dialogue with passages from the anonymous fourteenth-century Ovide moralisé demonstrates the poet's distinctive treatment of the myth relative to his lyric and romance precursors even as he preserves its significance for dramatizing the ambivalent pleasures of erōs. …”

Sound pattern recognition from multiple sources in an enclosed space by Liu, Qiyuan.

“…In repair workshops or production factories, technical personnel are often required to identify the faulty components or devices in a malfunctioning machine system. To facilitate such fault diagnosis, this research aims at developing a method for identifying those components or devices which, due to their changed sound arising from faults, cause variations in the overall sound field in an enclosed space. …”
