Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 2,3, University of Paderborn (Anglistik/Amerikanistik), course: Linguistics and the Theory of Translation, language: English, abstract: 1.… Introduction'Translation ist eine Sondersorte des kommunikativen Handelns, welches kulturspezifisch ist. Ihr oberster Primat ist der funktionale Zweck. Die Skopostheorie sieht im Translat ein Informationsangebot in der Zielkultur über ein Informationsangebot aus einer Ausgangskultur. Wichtiger als die Nähe zwischen Ausgangs- und Zieltext ist die kulturspezifische Kohärenz des Translats.'This is an appropriate summary of what the functional translation theory according to Radegundis Stolze is about. In this paper I want to explain what the fundamental ideas are, how exactly this theory works and where some of its difficulties lie. I will also show the theory of translation Nida and Taber developed originally to translate texts from the Bible, but that can be used in every situation. Because of this universality Nida and Taber's theory of translation can be well compared to the functional translation theory as both consider function as a priority.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 1,7, University of Paderborn (Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: American Poetry from the Puritans to the Revolution, language: English, abstract: Decay in nat…ure can be seen from different points of view. On the one hand, to decay just means to die or more literally to rot. This is not a pleasant process, but a process that cannot be stopped and must take place according to the natural way of life/the laws of nature. On the other hand, decay does not only have this negative connotation because to decay in nature also means that something new is developing out of the dead material. Only when something, like an apple for example, dies, a new generation of apples can arise.These two different points of view are shown in the poems ''Tis the Last Rose of Summer' by Thomas Moore (1779-1852) and 'On Observing a Large Red-streak Apple' by Philip Freneau (1752-1832).

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 3,0, University of Paderborn (Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway and Two Recent Re-Writes, language: Engl…ish, abstract: In this term paper I will show how a real person - Virginia Woolf - is presented as a fictional character in Michael Cunningham's The Hours. The title he chose for his book is the working title of Virginia Woolf's novel Mrs Dalloway. Cunningham's composed his work is composed of three interlacing parts, entitled 'Mrs Woolf', 'Mrs Dalloway' and 'Mrs Brown'. This fact hints at the possibility of his wanting to point out some relations between the authoress and her fictive offspring.To get a most objective picture of how Virginia Woolf really was, I also used her diary edited by Anne Oliver Bell, and gave the information derived from there priority in completing this term paper.Furthermore, I will compare Michael Cunningham's version of Virginia Woolf with descriptions of her by people that were close to her: Virginia's husband Leonard Woolf and her nephew Quentin Bell.When comparing Cunningham's novel with Virginia Woolf's diary I found that there were so many interesting points I was reluctant to suppress that I decided to shorten my inquiries into the other two books in order not to go beyond a reasonable volume of this paper.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject American Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,7, University of Paderborn (Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Psycholinguistics, language: English, abstract: In the book What the Hands Reveal about the B…rain, published in 1987 by the MIT Press, the authors J. Poizner, E. Klima and U. Bellugi analyze the consequences of brain damage for deaf patients, whose primary way of communication is sign language. By analyzing them they hope to find a way to help to remediate the impairments, in the long term, but also to get some help to understand the nature of language representation in the brain. Chapter 5 of this book - the part I am occupied with - concentrates on the implications of right-hemisphere lesions for signers of ASL. Right-hemisphere lesions often produce pronounced visuospatial deficits. The question the authors raise is whether consequently linguistic deficits or even clusters of language deficits appear.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject German Studies - Comparative Literature, grade: 2,0, University of Paderborn (Germanistik und vergleichende Literaturwissenschaft), course: Europäischer Realismus, language: English, abstract: George…Eliot's Silas Marner, 'that charming minor master piece' (in Eliot 252) as F. R. Lewis calls it, was published in 1861 by John Blackwood. Her publisher explains: 'Silas Marner sprang from her childish recollection of a man with a stoop and an expression of face that led her to think that he was an alien from his fellows' (Eliot VII). This man was a weaver like Silas Marner. In making him the protagonist of her novel, George Eliot emphasizes his strangeness by adding short-sightedness and cataleptic fits to set him off from the people around him. The difficult process of this outsider's integration into society is the theme of the novel.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,3, University of Paderborn (Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Metaphor and Metonymy, language: English, abstract: For hundreds of ye…ars scholars have been pondering on the interconnection of language and thought with in some points corresponding and in some points differing results. Two important protagonists in this discussion were Wilhelm von Humboldt (1767-1835) and Leo Weisgerber (1899-1985), whose positions to this question I am trying to set out in this paper. As the theme is very complex, I shall at least attempt to point out some aspects, which seem especially important to me. All the authors I consulted agree that Humboldt's theory cannot be comprehended without considering the philosophical background. Not being a student of philosophy, conceiving this part of the paper was very difficult for me. I tried to do my best by picking out those aspects of his philosophical ideas which I thought indispensable for the understanding of his doctrines.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2005 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: 1,3, University of Paderborn (Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Jeffrey Eugenides's Middlesex, language: English, abstract: The novel Middlesex by Jeffrey Eug…enides won the Pulitzer Price in 2002. If you endeavour to sum up the story in one sentence, you could say it is an epic tale of an hermaphrodite of Greek origin, of his genealogy and of the first forty years of his life in the USA and in Berlin, told by himself. The question is: Why did Eugenides choose the title 'Middlesex' for his novel and: How can the motive 'Middlesex' be traced in the text In trying to answer this, I used different ways of appraoch. First I strived to get some explanations from the outside, using dictionaries, the internet, and also referring to 'Middlemarch' by George Eliot, because the title bears a resemblance to 'Middlesex'. Next I found some interviews on the internet in which Eugenides speaks about his book. Then I turned to the novel itself. It is obvious that I looked into the chapter 'Middlesex' first. Then I tried to find out whether there was any connection between the hermaphrodite status of Cal and the title. The last step I took was to analyze the relations of the four couples who make up Cal's entourage in order to learn, if there was anything that linked them to the title. A short evaluation of the results of this quest shall be given in the conclusion of this paper.

Er litt von Jugend an unter schweren Asthmaanfällen. Sein Vater 'Eddy' Bacon war zunächst im militärischen Dienst, später beschäftigte er sich in Irland mit der Zucht und dem Training von Rennpferden. Er galt als sehr autoritäres, strenges und auch gewalttätiges Familienoberhaupt - von Francis selbst oft als 'Haustyrann' beschrieben. Diese dominante Vaterfigur hatte entscheidenden Einfluss auf sein Lebensbild und sein künstlerisches Schaffen.

Jahrhundert, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Laut Tanja Busse liegt der Vorteil von Musikvideos darin, dass diese mithilfe der Bilder eine neue Dimension zum Text und den Noten schaffen und somit auch die Gesamtwirkung des Songs verändert wird. Dadurch, dass der Zuschauer sowohl akustischen als auch optischen Reizen ausgesetzt wird, entsteht für ihn ein synästhetisches Erlebnis. Man kann sie als 'Illustration von populärer Musik' verstehen, die nicht nur eine ästhetische und künstlerische, sondern vor allem eine kommerzielle Funktion erfüllen. Mit einem Videoclip versucht ein Künstler Werbung für sich zu machen, er verkauft mit ihm eine ganz bestimmte Atmosphäre.

Sie wurde dadurch begünstigt, dass viele zeitgenössische politische Bewegungen ähnliche Ziele hatten und war Teil der weltlichen Bewegung der bürgerlichen Emanzipation, die die Ausbreitung des Kapitalismus begleitete. Zur Vertretung der Interessen der Werktätigen entwickelten sich Arbeiterbewegungen, und die daran anschließenden Bewegungen für soziale Reformen und Veränderungen, die wichtig für die Bildung der persönlichen und gesellschaftlichen Menschenrechte sind.
