I explore how Bird uses medicine to assert her narrative authority and define her travelling persona in opposition to local medical practitioners. I argue that her ambivalence and the unease she frequently expresses concerning medical practice (expressed particularly in her later adoption of the Persian appellation "Feringhi Hakīm" [European physician] to describe her work) serves as a means for her to negotiate the colonial and gendered pressures on Victorian medicine. While in Japan this attitude works to destabilise her hierarchical understanding of science and results in some acknowledgement of traditional Japanese traditions, in Persia it functions more to disguise her increasing collusion with overt British colonial ambitions.}, language = {en} } @article{AdairMcLaughlin2022, author = {Adair, Gigi and McLaughlin, Carly}, title = {Beyond humanitarianism}, series = {Narrating Flight and Asylum}, journal = {Narrating Flight and Asylum}, publisher = {Trier}, address = {WVT Wissenschaftlicher Verlag Trier}, isbn = {978-3-86821-965-4}, pages = {165 -- 182}, year = {2022}, language = {en} } @article{Adamik2021, author = {Adamik, Verena}, title = {Making worlds from literature}, series = {Thesis eleven : critical theory and historical sociology}, volume = {162}, journal = {Thesis eleven : critical theory and historical sociology}, number = {1}, publisher = {Sage}, address = {London}, issn = {0725-5136}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1177/0725513621993308}, pages = {105 -- 120}, year = {2021}, abstract = {While W.E.B.

Ultimately, the political visions offered in the novels differ starkly, but both employ a Western literary canon - so-called 'classics' from Greek, German, English, French, and US American literature. With this, Du Bois attempts to create a new space for African Americans in the world (literature) of the 20th century. Weary of the traditions of this 'world literature', the novels complicate and begin to decenter the canon that they draw on.

Throughout their talk, Bala and Kerrigan engage with the legacy of Haitian anthropologist Michel-Rolph Trouillot. Specifically, they focus on his approach of looking from small units, such as small villages in Dominica, outwards to larger political structures such as global capitalism, social inequalities and the distribution of power. They also share insights from their own research on embodied practices in the Caribbean, Europe and India and answer questions such as: What can research on and through embodied practices tell us about systems of power and domination that move between the local and the global? How can performance practices which are informed by multiple locations and cultures be read and appreciated adequately? Sharing insights from his research into Guyanese prisons, Kerrigan outlines how he aims to connect everyday experiences and struggles of Caribbean people to trans-historical and transnational processes such as racial capitalism and post/coloniality. Furthermore, he elaborates on how he uses performance practices such as spoken word poetry and data verbalisation to connect with systematically excluded groups. Bala challenges na{\"i}ve notions about the inherent transformative potential of performance in her research on performance and translation. She points to the way in which performance and its reception is always already inscribed in what she calls global or planetary asymmetries.

It is shown that the parallel-opposition construction, next to specific semantic-pragmatic, syntactic and lexical features, also exhibits a relatively fixed range of prosodic features in the first conjunct, among these narrow focus, continuing intonation and/or the avoidance of intonation-unit boundary signals. These are used to project continuation of an otherwise complete utterance and, thus, to secure the floor for the expression of contrast. In addition, the detailed analysis of apparently deviant cases, which takes into account the on-line production of syntax, shows that a lack of prosodically projective features in the first component of the parallel-opposition construction can be explained by the strategic, retrospective use of the construction to resolve problems in turn transition.}, language = {en} } @misc{BarthWeingartenOgden2021, author = {Barth-Weingarten, Dagmar and Ogden, Richard}, title = {"Chunking" spoken language}, series = {Zweitver{\"o}ffentlichungen der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Philosophische Reihe}, journal = {Zweitver{\"o}ffentlichungen der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Philosophische Reihe}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, issn = {1866-8380}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-53625}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-536259}, pages = {531 -- 548}, year = {2021}, abstract = {In this introductory paper to the special issue on "Weak cesuras in talk-in-interaction", we aim to guide the reader into current work on the "chunking" of naturally occurring talk.

However, there are a number of unresolved issues associated with passives. The linguistic analysis of passive structures in different languages has remained controversial as well as the empirical neurolinguistic basis of agrammatic passive comprehension. In addition, a variety of morphological and semantic questions have been raised with respect to the implicit argument in short passives and the ordering of thematic roles reflected by different positions of the by-phrase in long passives. Aims: The major aims of the present study were to re-examine the analyses of passives with and without traces, the role of an implicit argument in short passives, and the influence of the position of the by-phrase on agrammatic sentence comprehension. Methods \& Procedures: A binary picture-sentence matching task was administered to six non-fluent German agrammatic speakers. Various types of passives including long, short, and topicalised passives were tested. Additionally, comprehension of active SVO sentences was assessed in a separate but similar session. Only those patients whose comprehension on active sentences was above chance were included. Outcomes \& Results: As a group, the six subjects performed above chance over all passive types. If only long canonical passives are considered, as is done in most studies, five subjects showed a pattern compatible with the TDH. However, the picture was modified if other passive constructions were taken into account, in which case only three of the six subjects showed TDH conformity. Conclusions: There is no unique pattern of agrammatic passive comprehension and only half of the agrammatic subjects conformed to the trace deletion hypothesis. Given the results on long canonical and topicalised passives, our data support linguistic analyses that assume a trace- based derivation of passives. Furthermore, the results are in line with linguistic analyses adopting an implicit argument in short passives. Since comprehension of topicalised passives with a canonical order of theta-roles was not better than that of long passives without a canonical order, the agrammatic problem with passives does not seem to hinge on semantics}, language = {en} } @article{BoehnkeBrusbergKiermeierDrexler2010, author = {B{\"o}hnke, Dietmar and Brusberg-Kiermeier, Stefanie and Drexler, Peter}, title = {Introduction}, series = {Victorian highways, Victorian byways : new approaches to nineteenth century British literature and culture}, journal = {Victorian highways, Victorian byways : new approaches to nineteenth century British literature and culture}, publisher = {Trafo}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-89626-939-3}, pages = {7 -- 11}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{Carroll1998, author = {Carroll, Susanne}, title = {The language acquisition device and linguistic competence : what's in, what's not}, series = {Interaction and linguistic structures}, volume = {4}, journal = {Interaction and linguistic structures}, publisher = {Inst. f{\"u}r Germanistik}, address = {Potsdam}, pages = {48 S.}, year = {1998}, language = {en} } @article{Carroll1995, author = {Carroll, Susanne}, title = {The Hidden Danger in Computer Modelling : remarks on sokolik \& smith's connectionist learning model of french gender}, year = {1995}, language = {en} } @article{Carroll1995, author = {Carroll, Susanne}, title = {The Irrelevance of feedback to language learning}, year = {1995}, language = {en} } @article{Carroll1996, author = {Carroll, Susanne}, title = {Parameter-setting in SLA : explanas and explanandum}, year = {1996}, language = {en} } @article{Carroll1998, author = {Carroll, Susanne}, title = {On processability theory and second language acquisition}, year = {1998}, language = {en} } @book{Carroll2000, author = {Carroll, Susanne}, title = {Input and evidence : the raw material of second language acquisition}, series = {Language acquisition and language disorders}, volume = {25}, journal = {Language acquisition and language disorders}, publisher = {J.

And yet, critiquing the narratives that structure worlds and discourses is key to the activities of the (literary) critic in this time of crisis. If this crisis manifests as a 'crisis of imagination' (e.g. Ghosh), I argue that this not so much a crisis of the absence of texts that address the environmental disaster, but rather a failure to comprehend the presences of the Anthropocene in the present. To interpret (literary) texts in this framework must entail acknowledging and scrutinising the extent of the incapacity of the privileged reader to comprehend the crisis as presence and present rather than spatially or temporally remote. The readings of the novels Carpentaria (2006) and The Swan Book (2013) by Waanyi writer Alexis Wright (Australia) trace the uneven presences of Anthropocenes in the present by way of bringing future worlds (The Swan Book) to the contemporary (Carpentaria). In both novels, protagonists must forge survival amongst ruins of the present and future: the depicted worlds, in particular the representations of the disenfranchisement of indigenous inhabitants of the far north of the Australian continent, emerge as a critique of the intersections of capitalist and colonial projects that define modernity and its impact on the global climate.}, language = {en} } @article{deOliveira2018, author = {de Oliveira, Milene Mendes}, title = {Cultural conceptualizations of business negotiations in the Expanding Circle}, series = {World Englishes}, volume = {37}, journal = {World Englishes}, number = {4}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Hoboken}, issn = {0883-2919}, doi = {10.1111/weng.12346}, pages = {684 -- 696}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Following recents calls for the inclusion of conceptual aspects into world Englishes research, I report in this article on conceptualizations of business negotiations by Brazilian and German business people.

To this end, Oromo-Americans, an ethnic group originally located within the national borders of Ethiopia, will be compared to Armenian-Americans, British-Pakistanis and Somali-Americans. Despite different circumstances, all four groups share the experience of displacement owing to war and destitution. Additionally, all groups are confronted with the ramifications of a visible minority status. In the process of comparing these groups, their degrees of homogeneity in regard to language and religion - central aspects of culture and cultural identity - will be examined and juxtaposed at a macro level. Based on the correlative relationship of group homogeneity and social cohesion, I argue that the more homogeneous a group is in terms of language and religion, the more close-knit it will be. Consequently, exiled minorities who share the same language and religion are more likely to develop and retain a strong ethnic orientation than groups who are heterogeneous with regard to language and/or religion.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Deffa2016, author = {Deffa, Oromiya-Jalata}, title = {Discursive Construction of Bicultural Identity}, series = {Duisburger Arbeiten zur Sprach- und Kulturwissenschaft ; 113}, journal = {Duisburger Arbeiten zur Sprach- und Kulturwissenschaft ; 113}, publisher = {Lang}, address = {Frankfurt am Main}, isbn = {978-3-631-67312-6}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {233}, year = {2016}, abstract = {The author examines the cultural identity development of Oromo-Americans in Minnesota, an ethnic group originally located within the national borders of Ethiopia.
