  2. Interpolation (manuscripts) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpolation_(manuscripts)

    An interpolation, in relation to literature and especially ancient manuscripts, is an entry or passage in a text that was not written by the original author.As there are often several generations of copies between an extant copy of an ancient text and the original, each handwritten by different scribes, there is a natural tendency for extraneous material to be inserted into such documents over ...

  3. Textual criticism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textual_criticism

    Textual criticism has been practiced for over two thousand years, as one of the philological arts. [4] Early textual critics, especially the librarians of Hellenistic Alexandria in the last two centuries BC, were concerned with preserving the works of antiquity, and this continued through the Middle Ages into the early modern period and the invention of the printing press.

  4. Triadic-line poetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triadic-line_poetry

    Triadic-line poetry or stepped line is a long line which "unfolds into three descending and indented parts". [1] Created by William Carlos Williams , it was his "solution to the problem of modern verse" [ 2 ] and later was also taken up by poets Charles Tomlinson and Thom Gunn .

  5. Transmission line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_line

    They were developed by Oliver Heaviside who created the transmission line model, and are based on Maxwell's equations. Schematic representation of the elementary component of a transmission line. The transmission line model is an example of the distributed-element model. It represents the transmission line as an infinite series of two-port ...

  6. Line (poetry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_(poetry)

    Conventions that determine what might constitute line in poetry depend upon different constraints, aural characteristics or scripting conventions for any given language. On the whole, where relevant, a line is generally determined either by units of rhythm or repeating aural patterns in recitation that can also be marked by other features such as rhyme or alliteration, or by patterns of ...

  7. Planar transmission line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planar_transmission_line

    Planar transmission lines are transmission lines with conductors, or in some cases dielectric (insulating) strips, that are flat, ribbon-shaped lines. They are used to interconnect components on printed circuits and integrated circuits working at microwave frequencies because the planar type fits in well with the manufacturing methods for these ...

  8. Distributed-element model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed-element_model

    Unlike the transmission line example, the need to apply the distributed-element model arises from the geometry of the setup, and not from any wave propagation considerations. [3] The model used here needs to be truly 3-dimensional (transmission line models are usually described by elements of a one-dimensional line).

  9. Hypertext fiction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertext_fiction

    Hypertext fiction is a genre of electronic literature characterized by the use of hypertext links that provide a new context for non-linearity in literature and reader interaction. The reader typically chooses links to move from one node of text to the next, and in this fashion arranges a story from a deeper pool of potential stories.
