"Keen-souled" etc. In addition to kennings there are also many ordinary metaphors like "The accursed" and "The outlaw", these two referring to Grendel. For the sake of emphasis, parallelism has been brought to play. The repetition of the same idea is a constantly used stylistic device. For example "No keenest blade, no farest of falchions", "That here was the last of life, an end of his days on earth", "Swallowed him piecemeal: swiftly thus the lifeless corse was clean devoured" have more or less the same meaning in both parts of the phrase. Another interesting characteristic of Anglo-Saxon literature is the rarity of similes. There are altogether only five similes in the entire epic and one of them - "Streamed from his eyes fearful flashes, like flame to see" can be found in the extract. The text has some features of Christianity in it e.g. "From captive of hell" and
indiviide teaduslike teooriate leiutajatena, siis sotsiaalfilosoofilisest aspektist vaatleb ta neid sotsiaalsete institutsioonide konstruktoritena. Inimesed peaksid olema huvitatud selliste sotsiaalsete institutsioonide konstrueerimisest, mis lahendaksid ühiskondlikke probleeme paremini kui seda teevad olemasolevad institutsioonid. Seejuures tuleks meil Popperi soovitusel rakendada olemasolevate instutsioonide ümberkujundamisel nn. “tükiviisilist sotsiaalset insenerikunsti” (piecemeal social engineering). Tükiviisilised, s.t. piiratud ulatusega, peavad kavandatud sekkumised sotsiaalsesse ellu olema selleks, et nad oleksid kontrollitavad ja vajadusel tagasipööratavad. Siin on erinevus epistemoloogia ja poliitika vahel. Kui teaduses tuleb falsifitseeritud teooria Popperi soovituse kohaselt tervenisti kõrvale heita ja püüda luua täiesti uus teooria, siis ühiskonna puhul pole
pidid kaitsma linnakära eest. Foorumil asetsevatest ehitistest olid tähtsamad tempel ja basiilika (kohtu- ja kaubamaja). Foorum ehitati kohale, kus asus algselt märg ala, see kuivendati. Unlike the later imperial fora in Rome—which were self-consciously modeled on the ancient Greek plateia (πλατεῖα) public plaza or town square— the Roman Forum developed gradually, organically and piecemeal over many centuries.[2] This is so despite the tidying up of men like Sulla, Caesar and Augustus who attempted, with some success, to impose a degree of order there. By the Imperial period the large public buildings that crowded around the central square had reduced the open area to a rectangle of about 130 by 50 meters.[3] Its long dimension was oriented northwest to southeast and extended from
