End-to-end style-conditioned poetry generation: What does it take to learn from examples alone?

In this work, we design an end-to-end model for poetry generation based on conditioned recurrent neural network (RNN) language models whose goal is to learn stylistic features (poem length, sentiment, alliteration, and rhyming) from examples alone. We show this model successfully learns the meaning' of length and sentiment, as we can control it to generate longer or shorter as well as more positive or more negative poems. However, the model does not grasp sound phenomena like alliteration and rhyming, but instead exploits low-level statistical cues. Possible reasons include the size of the training data, the relatively low frequency and difficulty of these sublexical phenomena as well as model biases. We show that more recent GPT-2 models also have problems learning sublexical phenomena such as rhyming from examples alone.

AfriKI: Machine-in-the-Loop Afrikaans Poetry Generation

This paper proposes a generative language model called AfriKI. Our approach is based on an LSTM architecture trained on a small corpus of contemporary fiction. With the aim of promoting human creativity, we use the model as an authoring tool to explore machine-in-the-loop Afrikaans poetry generation. To our knowledge, this is the first study to attempt creative text generation in Afrikaans.

The Hero In The Pre-Islamic Poetic Consciousness

The poetic consciousness of the pre-Islamic period is full of various images of the "hero" whose heroship exceeds the idea of chivalry further up to an extensive richness denoted by the the lexicon of "heroicism", as well as by the poetic capturing of the heroic acts. Thus, a heroic poetry has emerged to be an example followed by many poets later to assimilate those heroic values. Generally speaking, the poet of the pre-islamic period is one of the tribe heroes adapting values of heroship which have always characterised the pre islamic community. Accordingly, the concept of the " war hero" has formed the the poetic consciousness in terms of bravery and strength. So well does the "peace hero" as having been the social hero representing the values of genorosity, good neighbor, and helping the needy. There are also many other values which can't be separated in many poems, especially when connected with collective pride that is often represented by heroes carrying the tribal fanaticism.

Style Structure in Modern Syrian Poetry: "Taf'eela Verse" as an Example

The proposed study suggests that exploring style structure in the Taf'eela Verse (free verse) of modern Syrian poetry may be achieved through the manifestations and rich pictures that it encompasses. But these manifestations, pictures, and linguistic and artistic revelations must usher the way to the rest of the materialized structures which are interacting with it, on the one hand, and perhaps it overpasses them towards their distant implied spheres, on the other hand.

The textual power in the light of psychological reading of the pre-Islamic poetry

This paper aims to illustrate the effect of the textual power in the esthetics of the poetry text, its concepts and the dimension of this effect in the light of psychological reading of the pre-Islamic poetry. We seek to preeminence the text effect in the receiver who uses his psychological tools to find out about the author self, appealing for the tension power that was assembled by the text of the pre-Islamic poetry, and depending on the poeticalness of the pre- Islamic figure in order to obtain the esthetics effect that attracts the receiver and demonstrates the esthetics of the pre-Islamic poetry text and its riches. The pre-Islamic poetry was not merely an artistic formulation, but it was a position, thought and expression from the depths of the poet Al-Jahali, in which the da'al floats, and the meaning falls away, so we get a flexible aesthetic dimension, after it reveals that the pre-Islamic poetry exceeded and surpassed; Their poems included a special vision of their mental state.
