深度学习

posthumous (POS tyoo mus) Literally meaning “after death,” this adjective has a special “family sense” in referring to a baby born after the death of his or her father. It can also be used in nonfamily contexts.

• Modern-day psychologists have written about the childhood of eighteenth-century writer Jonathan Swift: not only was he a posthumous child, but his mother was geographically distant from him in his early years.
• Sicilian writer Giuseppe Lampedusa’s only novel, The Leopard, was published posthumously to great acclaim; the writer knew only the sadness of having his manuscript rejected twice.
