“…Singular value decomposition (SVD) is a method for decomposing a matrix, but unlike eigenvalue decomposition, it is possible for the matrix required to be different than a square one. Assuming that the original user rating data matrix is a matrix A of mn  , then using singular value decomposition the matrix A can be decomposed according to equation (7) to obtain three matrices. Namely:…”

Modern and contemporary literature in colleges and universities is a deeply learned and traditional humanities subject, and the development of Internet technology has a different impact on the form of teaching literature. This paper combines the MOOC platform for information technology with the teaching of modern and contemporary literature and establishes a blended teaching mode for both modern and contemporary literature. Aiming at the problem of personalized recommendation of literature teaching resources in blended teaching, this paper introduces the singular value decomposition to improve the collaborative filtering algorithm in order to meet the students’ efficient learning needs of current and contemporary literature. After the teaching experiment of the blended teaching mode of current and modern literature for the students of the class of 2021 in the sample universities, the reading breadth score of the students in the experimental group in current and contemporary literature reaches 3.72±0.61. The reading ability of the two groups of students shows a significant difference at the 1% level. Furthermore, students in the experimental group were 0.3 points more motivated to learn modern and contemporary literature than those in the control group. The integration of current and modern literature teaching with information technology can promote students’ learning interests and improve the quality of current and contemporary literature teaching.

Adrian Duncan’s second novelA Sabbatical in Leipzig(2020) marks a departure from ‘typical’ Irish topics such as national identity and religion. This he shares with a range of contemporary Irish authors, particularly those writing in the aftermath of the Celtic-Tiger years. The novel’s focus on architecture and engineering, which also looms large in Duncan’s other novelsLove Notes from a German Building SiteandThe Geometer Lobachevsky, is unique, as it leads to unusual reflections on the nature of material culture. This original approach to the novel form should be considered as part of the current international trend to integrate theoretical reflections on a wide range of topics, thus negotiating contemporary cultures of knowledge. The novel’s international outlook moves away from ‘typical’ Irish topics of national identity and religion shared by a wider range of contemporary Irish authors, particularly those writing in the aftermath of the Celtic-Tiger years. The novel is thus also a reflection on the collapse of old systems, be they political, social, or epistemological, and the existential uncertainty created by their demise. I argue in my paper that Duncan’s novel addresses questions of knowledge formation that bear a striking resemblance to the Romantic novel as an open and generically hybrid form. I read it in a wider context as part of an ongoing experience of crisis: my overall thesis aims at describing the contemporary tendency to include abstract reflections that interrupt the narrative sequence as an expression of a fundamental crisis of knowledge. Today’s mediascape represents the contemporary world in a state of severe emergency, whose symptoms, be they climate change, the rise of nationalism and the far right, ultimately lead to a fundamental experience of contingency. Novels like Duncan’s can thus be seen as an expression of the crisis of the contemporary media ecology of knowledge.
