Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Das Buch ist für Lehrer/innen und Lehramtsstudierende des Faches Deutsch konzipiert. Es vermittelt einen Einblick in das Phänomen sprachlicher Verständigung, indem es die Sprachstruktur unter Gebrauchsperspektive betrachtet. Dabei zeigt es auf, welche Bedeutung die sprachlichen Einheiten Laut, Wort, Satz, sprachliche Handlungen und Text für das Ziel der Verständigung besitzen. Die linguistische Beschäftigung mit Sprache produziert keine schulischen Lernziele. Sie analysiert, beschreibt und benennt Strukturen und Gebrauchsweisen von Sprache. Die dabei gewonnenen Erkenntnisse werden dann Gegenstand des Deutschunterrichts, wenn mit ihrer Hilfe Lernziele einer reflexiven, rezeptiven und aktiven Sprachkompetenz verwirklicht werden können. Aus diesem Grund stellt das Buch explizite Bezüge her zwischen Gegenstandsbereichen der Sprachwissenschaft und Lernzielzusammenhängen des Deutschunterrichts. 310 pp. Deutsch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -This book approaches literary existentialism (1935-1960) from a philosophical point of view and provides a semantic frame through which the primary works of this movement can be interpreted. Readings of Sartre, Sábato, Camus, Böll, De Beauvoir, Nooteboom, and others emphasize the place and themes specific to each writer within literary existentialism as a whole.One of the most original features of this study is its focus on the central notion of ¿engagement¿ after 1960. Having highlighted its waning in postmodernism, van Stralen then demonstrates the vigorous resurgence of this pivotal concept in postcolonial discourses. 246 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -In celebrating the academic career and practice of a distinguished scholar of French literature, this volume concentrates on one of Peter Broome¿s major preoccupations and attainments: translation. Eschewing a dogmatic, theoretical approach, the contributors (former colleagues and students) tackle four rich areas of study: modern anglophone poets¿ reactions to, and translations of, authors with whom they have closely identified (Racine, the Symbolists, Saint-John Perse, Valéry); problematics of translating specific poets of recent centuries (Rimbaud, Mallarmé, Valéry, Césaire, some contemporary poets); reception and interaction in two foreign countries (Australia, Spain); and a more fluid interpretation of translation, moving the notion across into wider realms of literary expression (Mallarmé, Proust, Assia Djebar). A focalising feature, punctuating the volume, are Peter Broome¿s own translations of hitherto unpublished poems by five major contemporary French writers: Jean-Paul Auxeméry, Marie-Claire Bancquart, Louise Herlin, Vénus Khoury-Ghata and Jean-Charles Vegliante. The book thus intertwines theory and practice in a non-prescriptive manner which invites further elaboration and analysis. 248 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Variations in speech melody (intonation) can be used to express different meanings (e.g. question vs. statement, friendliness). Yet, intonational information is hardly used in present-day linguistic models. When intonational information is used, it is mostly based on introspection rather than on empirical investigation; almost exclusively, a one-to-one relation between accent types and semantic function is assumed. This book focuses on an empirical investigation of thematic contrast in German. Thematic contrast has received considerable attention in semantics because sentences with contrastive themes can be used to imply propositions of various kinds without saying them explicitly.In this book, first an acoustic comparison between sentences produced in contrastive and non-contrastive contexts is described. Intonational realisation is quantified in terms of the height and position of tonal targets. The perceptual reality of different productions and the relevance of different acoustic cues are tested by means of rating experiments. Finally, the data are prosodically annotated by a group of linguists to explore the validity and explanatory power of different accent categories for contrastive and non-contrastive themes in German. 280 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -As a textual form, the essai predominates in modern and contemporary literature in French. Emerging from an earlier tradition and distinguished from its English-language counterpart, the French-language essay ranges from Stéphane Mallarmé to Colette, Victor Segalen to Aimé Césaire, Jean Grenier to Pierre Michon. The essai remains, however, one of the most hazily identified of textual forms, its definition often depending on the progressive elimination of all other generic possibilities. Excluded from the archigenres (theatre, poetry, récit), it can even be seen as a hold-all category whose role is to absorb the anarchic extremes of writing.It is perhaps this very lack of pretension to orthodoxy that has drawn so many writers to the essai. The conventional understanding of the term ¿ as a tentative, unsystematic exploration ¿ stresses the genre¿s provisional nature, its refusal of any claims to comprehensiveness. The essai exploits the devices of anecdote, illustration and humour; it is addressed to a wide and often general audience; it is also intricately linked to the performance of ideological and writerly strategies, often reordering the classical art of rhetoric and persuasion. As the contributions to this volume show, there is a need to outline an ethics and politics, as well as poetics, of essayism.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 304 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Two major themes are addressed in this book. The first one is on Active Civic Participation. This is considered an increasingly important aim both for public governance and for the renewal of civil society. The contributions on this topic deepen our understanding of the reasons why civic participation is relevant as an answer to present day societal challenges. They also improve our insight in the factors that stimulate or inhibit such participation. The second theme is about European Citizenship and Multiple Identities. It helps to understand the evolution of citizenship and identities in the context of European integration and enlargement, of globalisation and glocalisation, of migration, etc. The book holds a selection of papers presented at the Connections Conference, organised at the University of Leuven (Belgium) in September 2003 under the auspices of the Flemish Research Council and the Network on Active Democratic Citizenship and Adult Learning of ESREA (European Society of Research into the Education of Adults). 360 pp. Englisch.

Add to basketTaschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Considérée comme l¿une des figures centrales du langage avec la métaphore, la métonymie est tiraillée entre plusieurs approches (sémantico-référentielles, cognitives, rhétoriques, stylistiques¿) qui en font une notion peu homogène, voire hybride. L¿objectif de cet ouvrage est de montrer comment la métonymie trouve une cohérence conceptuelle si on l¿envisage comme un fait de discours émergeant au c¿ur des variations permises par la langue. Dans ce cadre opératoire, s¿appuyant sur les réseaux associatifs sous-tendant la communication, la métonymie permet d¿établir des désignations obliques et des refonctionnalisations au sein de nombreux contextes: langage quotidien, discours littéraire ou médiatique, sociolectes particuliers¿Tout en présentant les principales modalités des réalisations métonymiques dans les discours, cet ouvrage s¿intéresse plus spécifiquement à deux dimensions importantes de la métonymie souvent négligées: ses problèmes d¿interprétation et ses effets illocutoires qui engendrent une modulation de la référence, propre à reprofiler nos représentations du monde. Au total, loin d¿être un simple procédé d¿expression, la métonymie apparaît comme l¿un des meilleurs témoignages de la plasticité du langage, que ce soit au niveau énonciatif, pragmatique ou textuel. 236 pp. Französisch.

Der monolinguale Habitus in den Erziehungs- und Bildungsinstitutionen westlicher Einwanderungsländer ist in vielen Fällen für das Schulversagen immigrierter bilingualer Schulkinder und Jugendlicher verantwortlich.

Über die meisten sogenannten Mittlerorganisationen ist daher wenig mehr als ihre Existenz bekannt. Überblicksdarstellungen über die Entwicklung einzelner Organisationen, aber auch des gesamten Bereichs der Auswärtigen Kulturpolitik fehlten bislang völlig. Angesichts dessen legt Steffen R.

Dabei kann der Autor auf bisher unveröffentlichtes Quellenmaterial der Kultureinrichtung zugreifen. Deren abwechslungsreiche und nicht immer unproblematische Geschichte stellt den zentralen Gegenstand dieser Arbeit dar.Indem sie eine der zentralen Aufgaben des Goethe-Instituts in den Blick nimmt, bietet die Arbeit zudem eine Darstellung der deutschen Sprachpolitik in vier Jahrzehnten.Darüber hinaus liefert Kathe jedoch auch eine umfassende Einführung in die Geschichte der Auswärtigen Kulturpolitik der BRD.

Aufgrund der Weite des Themas und der schwierigen Überlieferungssituation können nur einzelne Teilbereiche berücksichtigt werden. Es erfolgt eine genauere Analyse von Beiträgen mit juristischem Bezug in der SS-Zeitung Das Schwarze Korps sowie der Rubrik Verwaltung und Recht in den Meldungen aus dem Reich, die gesammeltes nachrichtendienstliches Material enthielten und vom SD, dem Sicherheitsdienst der SS, herausgegeben wurden. Daneben wird die Kontrolle, die der SD im Reichswissenschaftsministerium auf die Universitäten und insbesondere die juristischen Fakultäten ausübte, anhand der Biographie von K. A. Eckhardt untersucht. Abschließend wird das Verhältnis von SS bzw. SD und der Justiz aufbauend auf bereits bestehenden Erkenntnissen thematisiert.

Bowers examines why constructivist-based educational reforms fail to take into account these current critical issues: the deepening ecological crisis, globalization, and undermining of the world's diverse cultural commons. Special attention is given to the ethnocentrism and Social Darwinism that created the foundations for the ideas of Dewey, Piaget, and Freire. Also considered is how the neo-liberal promoters of economic globalization share their taken-for-granted assumptions. Additionally, Bowers explains how teachers in different cultures can contribute to the revitalization of their cultural and environmental commons without engaging in the cultural imperialism that characterizes constructivist approaches to educational reform. 156 pp. Englisch.

It represents a new form of reporting and may well be the future for journalism. Full convergence involves a radical change in approach and mindset among journalists and their managers. It involves a shared assignment desk where the key people, the multimedia assignment editors, assess each news event on its merits and send the most appropriate people to the story. Convergence coverage should thus be driven by the significance of the news event. Depending on variables unique to each country and company, convergence is one of the most likely scenarios for media organizations around the world. This book explains the phenomenon of media convergence, defines what has been until recently a confusing topic, describes the main business models, provides case studies of successful convergent newsrooms around the world, and explains how to introduce convergence into the newsroom. Stephen Quinn provides a practical introduction to the changing landscape of news reporting, and has written a useful book for students and professionals alike. 256 pp. Englisch.

Deux modèles coexistent : le premier est celui de la subsidiarité, fondé sur la division des fonctions selon différents niveaux ; le second, analysé selon le paradigme de la Multi-level governance , part du constat que des politiques ne peuvent être efficacement menées que par la conjonction de la capacité d'action des différents niveaux de gouvernement.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book demonstrates that the encounter between Christianity and various African cultures gives rise to a number of problems for Africans who become Christians. It draws attention to certain traditional African beliefs and practices that seem to be incompatible with Christianity and create problems for Africans who embrace Christianity. Against this background it argues for the need to inculturate Christianity. It contends that in this exercise African Christianity can learn from the attempts at inculturation found in the New Testament times and in the early church. It offers examples of how the early church sought to make use of non-Christian categories of thought and elements in its articulation of the Christian message and in worship. It suggests a few areas of Ghanaian and African life where inculturation could and should take place. These include funeral rites, widowhood rites, child-naming rites, the rites of marriage, libation and christology. It concludes by offering some guidelines for use in the process of the inculturation of Christianity in Africa today. 132 pp. Englisch.

The contributors take as a point of departure that the school of tomorrow, the school in the information society, has two significant features. One is the expanded use of information and communication technologies (ICT). The other is the development of partnerships. The cases described here are based on the work of three European university teams from Blekinge Institute of Technology in Sweden; the University of Copenhagen and Roskilde University in Denmark, and the Autonomous University of Barcelona in Spain, that developed collaborations jointly to create new technology-based tools and learning environments that expanded beyond school walls. Using the Fifth Dimension approach to building learning environments, this network of university researchers worked together with teachers and software developers to co-design tools, strategies, and materials for teaching and learning in the 'school of tomorrow'. The volume addresses both the challenges and the possibilities of integrating technology in schools and classrooms that are partners in local and global learning communities. 188 pp. Englisch.

Damaged Lives shows how a yearning for conviction pervades the writing of William Faulkner, F. Scott Fitzgerald, James Agee, Flannery O'Connor, Mary Hood, and V. S. Naipaul.

Neuware -Even in an age of economic prosperity, there are young people who live on the edge of western societies and who are held accountable for their every indiscretion, sometimes even for those of others. This book employs a sociological imagination to make connections between the public issues and private troubles of youth living on the street. The narrative is pedagogical in intent, seeking to make sense of seemingly antisocial behavior, understood in the context of broader social, political, and economic concerns. In particular, it speaks to the «helping» professions of education, law, social work, nursing, psychology, and medicine.Lang, Peter GmbH, Gontardstraße 11, 10178 Berlin 248 pp. Englisch.

It examines the eschatological implications of Korean religious thought, the eschatology of American missionaries, the horrific experience of Japanese occupation (1910-1945), and the enforcement of Shinto shrine worship in light of Korean Christians' tenacious hold on dispensational premillennialism. This book explains the place of premillennialism in the Christian life, and it deals with the cultural underpinnings of Christianity in Korean history by bringing to bear the complex social, political, and religious elements of Korean culture. 339 pp. Englisch.

En primer lugar se considera el fenómeno de la interferencia lingüística como parte del contacto entre culturas, haciendo un repaso de las distintas nomenclaturas que se han utilizado y que se siguen empleando en este campo de la lingüística. En el siguiente capítulo, después de realizar un recorrido por las principales tipologías del préstamo lingüístico, se presenta la clasificación adoptada para el análisis de un corpus de más de un millar de galicismos del español que hemos recopilado. En la última parte se aborda el proceso de adaptación del préstamo en sus distintos planos (fónico y gráfico, morfosintáctico y semántico), circunscrito al caso específico de los préstamos que el francés ha suministrado al español actual. 116 pp. Spanisch.

The contributions were originally presented at the conference 'Textual Intersections in the Nineteenth Century: European Literatures, Histories and Arts' held at Cardiff University in July 2001. The book explores depictions of gender, sexuality and the family in literature and is interdisciplinary in scope. It includes pieces on art history, book illustration, dance, music and philosophy as these intersect with literature in the portrayal of desire in nineteenth-century Europe. Each article attempts to foreground the links between genres, national traditions, and differing art forms in the exploration of representations of desire in nineteenth-century European literature. 282 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Since Augustine many philosophers and theologians have discussed the relation of God to time, whereas the relation between God and space has been rarely discussed. This book deals with the relationship of God to space. Divine transcendence is one important aspect of the Christian God. However, God is also immanent in the world of space and time. The author investigates the concept of divine spatiality and presents case studies of three modern theologians: Torrance, Pannenberg and Moltmann. He also analyses divine spatiality by using Dyrness's three categories: relationship, agency and embodiment. 278 pp. Englisch.
