| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pierre-Guillaume-Frederic Le Play |
 | | The emperor, however, on two occasions had investigations made with a view to the establishment of testamentary freedom in favour of small holdings, but the project was opposed by the jurists and failed. | | | In 1875 he published "La Constitution de l'Angleterre"; in 1876, "La réforme en Europe et le salut de la France"; in 1877-79, the second edition of his "Ouvriers européens", which, enriched with new details, is a sort of compendium of the social history of Europe from 1855; and in 1881, "La Constitution essentielle de l'humanité". | | | Le Play desired to collaborate with the clergy in the work of social reform; he believed that fidelity to God's law, an essential need of societies, could not be better guaranteed than by the doctrines, sacraments, and worship of the Catholic Church. |

| | In traditional fiction the point of view is seen as synonymous with an embodied person who describes what he or she sees, this person is the narrator and his or her narrative implies/bears his or her presence. | | | This modification of point of view is most explicit in the novels of the cyberpunk genre, the point of view (or 'pov') itself becomes a character which is not synonymous with a body/person. | | | One of the differences that this shift produces in literature is a change in the notion of point of view. |

| | Time's Arrow and Archimedes' Point presents an innovative and controversial view of time and contemporary physics. | | | 'Huw Price's book, Time's Arrow and Archimedes' Point is an uncompromising study of temporal asymmetry from an atemporal point of view. | | | He presents it in a marvellously clear and picturesque manner that allows even the layman to see the point of each part of the problem, and to understand its importance for the whole. |

| | From the computational linguistics point of view, its interesting that a subtle semantic phenomenon like metaphor can be detected from a great mass of text, an inaccurate parser, and an inevitably incomplete ontology. | | | The three famous chords we first heard demonstrate the encyclopedic signification of reference [bonus points given for reference to Tippett, 3rd Symphony, or Shostakovich, 15th Symphony!]; member-class synecdochic signification in music may be seen in examples of references to a general style. | | | Broadway hasn't always taken heed, though, boasting nearly two dozen musicals with exclamation points. |

| | Who's Afraid of POV? |
| | If the author uses the grammatical third person but does not present an Unlimited view of the characters, choosing instead to show only the external, observable behaviors and dialogue of all of his characters, for example, as Ernest Hemingway and Alain Robbe-Grillet do, then the point of view is Outer Limited. | | | Point of view is not determined by setting, time period, or atmosphere, nor is it determined by whether or not the author's personal beliefs in any way correspond with those expressed in the novel (by characters in thoughts, monologues, or dialogue, or by an omniscient voice in Unlimited point of view). | | | When the author gives us different versions of the same events, perhaps all written in First Person point of view, for example, then he is giving us different perspectives, but he is not changing point of view. |

| | Point of View |
| | The ideal is to establish an appropriate point of view and remain with it consistently throughout the correspondence or report. | | | Once a Point of View is established, it should be continued throughout the writing, and although some authors do shift their point of view within the same letter or report, this shift must be a minor one, or it will damage coherence. | | | Most second person points of view occur in instructions which are meant to be followed; instructions, described for understanding and not for actions would not use the second person. |

| | Hypertext Syntagmas, Miles, JoDI |
| | The point of view shot is extremely common in classical narrative and is where a character looks at something, and then we are shown what they are looking at, more or less from their point of view. | | | Point of view is also utilised during the famous breakfast table sequence from Citizen Kane, however this sequence is also interesting because of the transition from its ostensible narrator (Joseph Cotton) to the narrated sequence. | | | It usually is not, strictly, from the character's point of view (all those shots where we see the shoulder of the character from behind as they talk to someone are known as point of view shots for instance), but the shot is understood to be motivated, and justified, by the character having looked. |

| | Wikipedia:Neutral point of view - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | To write from a neutral point of view, one presents controversial views without asserting them; to do that, it generally suffices to present competing views in a way that is more or less acceptable to their adherents, and also to attribute the views to their adherents. | | | We said that the neutral point of view is not, contrary to the seeming implication of the phrase, some actual point of view that is "neutral" or "intermediate" among the different positions. | | | A good way to help building a neutral point of view is to find a reputable source for the piece of information you want to add to wikipedia, and then cite that source. |

| | Point of View - Element of Fiction |
| | By the point of view of a story (sometimes called angle or focus of narration) we mean the narrators relation to the fictional world of the story and to the minds of the characters in it. | | | Finally, the objective point of view in a way is the most lifelike, since the limitation to action enables the narrator to present a scene in the way we would encounter it in life. | | | The omniscient point of view, which reveals all minds, makes for subjective richness, but it maybe that this value is achieved at the expense of selection and concentration. |

| | Point of View |
| | After they adopt their points of view, good writers are careful to consistently use the same points of view all the way through the essay--unless they have a good reason to change those points of view. | | | The third person plural point of view is the point of view most commonly encountered in a formal piece of writing such as a research paper, for example. | | | This point of view is extremely handy to those writers who are in the process of narrating stories that concern themselves. |
