Using this practice creates a sequential juncture, i.e., a pivot-like nexus between one sequence and a next. In third position, such junctures serve to accomplish seamless sequential transitions from one sequence into a next by presenting the latter as locally occasioned. The practice may, however, also be deployed in second position to launch actions that have not been made relevant or provided for by the preceding action and exhibit response relevance themselves. The sequential junctures then become retro-sequential in character: They transform the projected trajectory of the sequence in progress and create interlocking sequential structures. These findings highlight that sequence is practice, while pointing to understudied interconnections between tying and sequentiality.

This reconceptualization of the decadent outlook was to inspire a critical ideal of literature which relied on creatively activating the other as Other, culminating in a vision of intersubjective, transcultural and unlimited literary communication.

Language change is always tacitly at work in all languages of the world and at all levels of a given language, be it phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, etc. It has been suggested that it is precisely the capacity to constantly change and adjust that allows language to keep serving the communicative goals of its users, from ancient to modern times (Fauconnier \& Turner, 2003, p. 179). This thesis investigates an especially salient pattern of lexicogrammatical change, namely word-formation of verbs from animal nouns by zero-derivation, in the process of which such nouns as, for example, dog, horse, or beaver change their usage and meaning to produce animal verbs: to dog 'to follow someone persistently and with a malicious intent', to horse about/around 'to make fun of, to 'rag', to ridicule someone' and to beaver away 'to work at working with great enthusiasm' respectively. In the previous literature this pattern of language change has been termed verbal zoosemy (e.g. Kiełtyka, 2016), i.e. metaphorical construal of human actions by means of linguistic material from the domain of animals. The approach taken in this study is not to simply report on the objective changes in the morphology, syntactic distribution and meaning of such linguistic units before and after conversion, but to uncover the complexity of cognitive mechanisms which allow the speakers of English to reclassify such well-established nominal units as animal noun into verbs. It is assumed that the grammatical change in these lexical units is predicated on and triggered by preceding semantic change. Thus, the study is set in the framework of Cognitive Historical Semantics and employs the Conceptual Metaphor and Metonymy Theory (CMMT) to untangle the intricacies of the semantic change making the grammatical change of animal nouns into verbs possible and acceptable in the minds of English speakers. To this end, this study employed the Oxford English Dictionary Online (OED Online) to compile a glossary of 96 denominal animal verbal forms tied to 209 verbal senses (most verbs in the dataset displayed polysemy). The data collected from the OED Online included not only the senses of the verbs, but also the date of the earliest recorded use of the verbal form with the given sense (regarded in the study as the date of conversion), the earliest usage examples for individual senses and morphologically or semantically related linguistic units from the lexical field of the respective parent noun which were amenable to explaining the observed instances of semantic change. Each instance of zoosemisation, i.e. of the creation of a separate metaphorical verbal sense, was then carefully analysed on the basis of the data collected and classified with the help of the CMMT. In the final stage, a comprehensive and systematic classification of the senses of animal verbs in accordance with the cognitive mechanisms of their creation (metaphor, metonymy, or a combination thereof) was produced together with a timeline of the first appearance of individual metaphorical senses of animal verbs recorded in the OED. The results show that animal verbs are produced through the interaction of conceptual metaphor and metonymy. Specifically, it was established that two major patterns of metaphor-metonymy interaction underpinning the process of verbal zoosemisation are metaphor from metonymy and metonymy from metaphor. In the former pattern, either an already existing metonymic animal verb is expanded to include the target domain PEOPLE, or the animal noun itself acts as a metonymic vehicle to a certain element of the idealised cognitive model of the given animal, which is metaphorically projected onto people. In the latter mechanism, a metaphorical projection of an animal term initially enters the lexicon in the form of a metaphorical animal noun referring to a human entity, and later in the course of language development it comes to metonymically stand for the action, which the given entity either performs or is involved in. Secondarily, it was observed that individual animal nouns can undergo multiple rounds of zoosemic conversion over time depending on the semantic frame in which the given linguistic unit undergoes denominal conversion, and that results in the polysemy of most animal verbs.}, language = {en} } @misc{Spahn2017, author = {Spahn, Hannah}, title = {Rezension zu: Helo, Ari, Thomas Jefferson's ethics and the politics of human progress: the morality of a slaveholder. - New York, NY: Cambridge Univ.

However, both of these debates frequently exclude indigenous positions on the Arctic. By reading Canadian Inuit theories on the Arctic alongside the more prominent debates, I argue for a decolonizing reading of the Arctic inspired by Inuit articulations of the "Inuit Sea."

It follows the theft and displacement of prominent ancestors from East and Southern Africa (Sarah Baartman, Dawid Stuurman, Mtwa Mkwawa, Songea Mbano, King Hintsa and the victims of the Ovaherero and Nama genocides) and argues that efforts made for the repatriation of their remains have contributed to a transnational remembrance of colonial violence. Drawing from cultural studies theories such as "multidirectional memory", "rehumanisation" and "necropolitics", the thesis argues for a new conceptualisation or "re-membrance" in repatriation, through processes of reunion, empowerment, story-telling and belonging. Besides, the afterlives of the dead ancestors, who stand at the centre of political debates on justice and reparations, remind of their past struggles against colonial oppression. They are therefore "memento vita", fostering counter-discourses that recognize them as people and stories.

Responding to an influential view shaping this debate, that Glissant's work can be categorised into an early political and late apolitical phase, this dissertation claims that this division is based on a narrow conception of 'engaged political writing' that prevents a more comprehensive view of the changing political strategies Glissant pursued throughout his life from emerging. Proceeding from this conceptual basis, the dissertation is concerned with re-reading the dimensions of Glissant's work that have hitherto been relegated as apolitical, literary or poetic, with the aim of conceptualising the politics of relation as an integral part of his overall poetic project. In methodological terms, the dissertation therefore proposes a relational reading of Glissant's life-work across literary genres, epochs, as well as the conventional divisions between political thought, writing and activism. This perspective is informed by Glissant's philosophy of relation, and draws on a conception of political practice that includes both explicit engagements with established political systems and institutions, as well as literary and cultural interventions geared towards their transformation and the creation of alternatives to them. Theoretically the work thus combines a poststructuralist lens on the conceptual difference between 'politics' and 'the political' with arguments for an inherent political quality of literature, and perspectives from the Afro-Caribbean radical tradition, in which writers and intellectuals have historically sought to combine discursive interventions with organisational actions. Applying this theoretical angle to the analysis of Glissant's politics of relation results in an interdisciplinary research framework designed to explore the synergies between postcolonial political and literary studies. In order to comprehensively describe Glissant's politics of relation without recourse to evolutionary or digressive models, the concept of an intellectual marronage is proposed as a framework to map the strategies making up Glissant's political archive. Drawing on a variety of historic, political theoretical and literary sources, intellectual marronage is understood as a mode of radical resistance to the neocolonial subjugation for which the plantation system stands historically and metaphorically, as an inherently innovative political practice invested in the creation of communities marked by relational ontologies, and as a commitment to fostering an imagination of the world and the human that differs fundamentally from the Enlightenment paradigm. This specific conception of intellectual marronage forms the basis on which three key strategies that consistently shape Glissant's political practice are identified and mapped. They revolve around Glissant's engagement with history (chapter 2), his commitment to fostering an imagination of the Tout-Monde (whole-world) as a political point of reference (chapter 3), and the continuous exploration of alternative forms of community on the levels of the island, the archipelago and the Tout-Monde (chapter 4). Together these strategies constitute Glissant's personal politics of relation. Its abstract characteristics can be put in a productive conversation with related theoretical traditions invested in exploring the political potentials of fugitivity (chapters 5), as well as with the work of other postcolonial actors whose holistic practice warrants to be described as a politics of relation (chapter 6).}, language = {en} } @article{Hartung2018, author = {Hartung, Heike}, title = {Longevity narratives}, series = {Journal of aging studie}, volume = {47}, journal = {Journal of aging studie}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {New York}, issn = {0890-4065}, doi = {10.1016/j.jaging.2018.03.002}, pages = {84 -- 89}, year = {2018}, abstract = {The essay looks at longevity narratives as an important configuration of old age, which is closely related to evolutionary theories of ageing.

The analysis of the two case studies illustrates that evolutionary and cultural perspectives on ageing and longevity are ambivalent and problematic. In Hall's and Shaw's texts this is related to a crisis narrative of culture and civilization against which both writers place their specific solutions of individual and species longevity. Whereas Hall employs autobiographical accounts of artists as examples of longevity to strengthen his argument about wise old men as exclusive repositories of knowledge, Shaw in his vision of longevity as an extended form of midlife for both genders encounters the limits of age representation.}, language = {en} } @misc{BalaKerrigan2021, author = {Bala, Sruti and Kerrigan, Dylan}, title = {Embodied Practices - Looking from Small Places}, series = {Minor Constellations in Conversation Lecture Series}, journal = {Minor Constellations in Conversation Lecture Series}, editor = {Heide, Johanna}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-50899}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-508999}, year = {2021}, abstract = {"Embodied Practices - Looking From Small Places" is an edited transcript of a conversation between theatre and performance scholar Sruti Bala (University of Amsterdam) and sociologist, criminologist and anthropologist Dylan Kerrigan (University of Leicester) that took place as an online event in November 2020. 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.

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.

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{Maerz2019, author = {M{\"a}rz, Moses Alexander}, title = {Imagining a politics of relation}, series = {Tydskrif vir letterkunde}, volume = {56}, journal = {Tydskrif vir letterkunde}, number = {1}, publisher = {University of Pretoria}, address = {Pretoria}, issn = {0041-476X}, doi = {10.17159/2309-9070/tvl.v.56i1.6271}, pages = {49 -- 61}, year = {2019}, abstract = {This study explores the theoretical and political potentials of {\´E}douard Glissant's philosophy of relation and its approach to the issues of borders, migration, and the setup of political communities as proposed by his pens{\´e}e nouvelle de la fronti{\`e}re (new border thought), against the background of the German migration crisis of 2015.

The bitter ironies of this disavowal become evident when Indigenous Australian quests for the remains of their ancestral dead lost in the limbo of German scientific collections are juxtaposed with white Australian (fictional) quests for the remains of Ludwig Leichhardt, lost in the Australian interior.}, language = {en} } @article{EcksteinPeitschSchwarz2017, author = {Eckstein, Lars and Peitsch, Helmut and Schwarz, Anja}, title = {Tusitalas Wandlungen}, series = {Pazifikismus : Poetiken des Stillen Ozeans}, journal = {Pazifikismus : Poetiken des Stillen Ozeans}, publisher = {K{\"o}nigshausen \& Neumann}, address = {W{\"u}rzburg}, isbn = {978-3-8260-6169-1}, pages = {443 -- 460}, year = {2017}, language = {de} } @article{EcksteinWiemann2017, author = {Eckstein, Lars and Wiemann, Dirk}, title = {Kleine Kosmopolitismen}, series = {Global Citizenship - Perspektiven einer Weltgemeinschaft}, journal = {Global Citizenship - Perspektiven einer Weltgemeinschaft}, publisher = {Steidel}, address = {G{\"o}ttingen}, isbn = {978-3-95829-211-6}, pages = {44 -- 53}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{EcksteinSchwarz2019, author = {Eckstein, Lars and Schwarz, Anja}, title = {Vision d'une mer faite d'{\^i}les: la carte de Tupaia (1769-1770)}, series = {Bulletin de la Soci{\´e}t{\´e} des Etudes Oc{\´e}aniennes : Polyn{\´e}sie Orientale}, volume = {347}, journal = {Bulletin de la Soci{\´e}t{\´e} des Etudes Oc{\´e}aniennes : Polyn{\´e}sie Orientale}, number = {Janvier / Avril}, publisher = {Soc.}, address = {Papeete}, issn = {0373-8957}, pages = {6 -- 23}, year = {2019}, language = {fr} } @misc{EcksteinSchwarz2019, author = {Eckstein, Lars and Schwarz, Anja}, title = {Authors' Response: The Making of Tupaia's Map Revisited}, series = {The journal of pacific history}, volume = {54}, journal = {The journal of pacific history}, number = {4}, publisher = {Routledge}, address = {London}, issn = {1469-9605}, doi = {10.1080/00223344.2019.1657500}, pages = {549 -- 561}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @article{FreitagHild2020, author = {Freitag-Hild, Britta}, title = {Simulationen}, series = {Handbuch Methoden im Fremdsprachenunterricht}, journal = {Handbuch Methoden im Fremdsprachenunterricht}, editor = {Hallet, Wolfgang and K{\"o}nigs, Frank G. and Martinez, Helene}, publisher = {Kallmeyer}, address = {Hannover}, isbn = {978-3-7727-1228-9}, pages = {123 -- 125}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Bei Simulationen im Fremdsprachenunterricht handelt es sich um eine ganz-heitliche Lehr-Lern-Methode, in der Lernende mit einer realen oder realit{\"a}ts-bezogenen Kommunikationssituation konfrontiert werden, um ihre Kompetenzen zur Bew{\"a}ltigung dieser Situation weiterzuentwickeln.

And so, a lot of inquiries have not been carried out. This field is a potential important socio-political marker, among others, of some narratives, that have emerged out of eastern Africa. Towards this end, my research seeks out an archaeology of childhood in eastern Africa. There is a monochromatic hue which has often painted the eastern African childhood. This broad stroke portrays the childhood as characterized by want. The image of the eastern African childhood is composed in terms of the war-child, poverty, disease-ridden, and aid-begging. The pitfall of this consciousness is that it erases a differentiated and pluralist nature of the eastern African childhood. Therefore, I hypothesise that childhood is a discourse from which institutional vectors become conduits of certain statement-making both process-wise and content-wise. As such a critical childhood study is a theatre of staging and unearthing its joys, tribulations, cultural constructions, and even political interventions. To this end childhood and its literatures not only reflect but also contribute to meaning making and worldliness thereof. As an attempt to move from an un-nuanced depiction, which is often monodirectional, I seek to present a chronologically synchronic and diachronic analysis of childhood in the eastern Africa. Accordingly, I excavate a chronological construction of childhood within this geopolitical region. The main conceptual anchorage is Francis Nyamnjoh who tells of the African occupying a life on convivial frontiers. He theorises an Africa that is involved in technologies of self-definition that privilege conversations, fluidity of being and relational connections on a globalised scale. I also appropriate the notion of Bula Matadi from the Congo as a decolonialist epistemological exercise to break apart polarising representations and practices of childhood in eastern Africa. This opens a space for an unbounded reconfiguration of childhood in eastern Africa. This book works on and with archival matter, in a cross-disciplinary manner and ranges from pre-colonial to post-colonial eastern Africa. It is an exploration of the trajectory of the discourse of childhood in eastern Africa, in order to eclectically investigate childhood in eastern Africa, in fictional and non-fictional representations.}, language = {en} } @misc{EcksteinSchwarz2019, author = {Eckstein, Lars and Schwarz, Anja}, title = {La carte de Tupaia, ma{\^i}tre d'astres et de navigation polyn{\´e}sienne}, series = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Philosophische Reihe}, journal = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Philosophische Reihe}, number = {170}, issn = {1866-8380}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-44538}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-445381}, pages = {156}, year = {2019}, abstract = {La carte de Tupaia constitue l'un des art{\´e}facts les plus c{\´e}l{\`e}bres et les plus {\´e}nigmatiques {\`a} {\´e}merger des toutes premi{\`e}res rencontres entre Europ{\´e}ens et {\^i}liens du Pacifique.

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.

To this end, it systematically reconsiders the conversational practice of using the lexico-syntactic format oh that's right to implicitly claim "just-now" recollection of something previously known, but momentarily confused or forgotten. The analyses reveal that this practice typically occurs as part of a larger sequential pattern that the participants orient to and which serves as a procedure for dealing with, and generating an account for, one participant's production of an inapposite action. As will be shown, the instantiation and progressive realization of this sequential procedure requires local inferential work from the participants. While some facets of this inferential work appear to be shaped by the particular context of the ongoing interaction, others are integral to the workings of the sequence as such. Moreover, the analyses suggest that participants' understanding of oh that's right as embodying an implicit memory claim rests on an inference which is based on a kind of semanticpragmatic compositionality. The paper thus illustrates how inferences in conversational interaction can be systematically studied and points to the merits of combining an interactional and a linguistic perspective.}, language = {en} } @techreport{Kuettner2014, author = {K{\"u}ttner, Uwe-Alexander}, title = {Opening Up CA - An Interactional Linguist's View on ICCA-14}, series = {Gespr{\"a}chsforschung : Online-Zeitschrift zur verbalen Interaktion}, journal = {Gespr{\"a}chsforschung : Online-Zeitschrift zur verbalen Interaktion}, number = {15}, publisher = {Verlag f{\"u}r Gespr{\"a}chsforschung}, address = {Mannheim}, issn = {1617-1837}, pages = {264 -- 289}, year = {2014}, language = {en} } @book{KoeserKuettnerKupetzetal.2014, author = {K{\"o}ser, Stephanie and K{\"u}ttner, Uwe-Alexander and Kupetz, Maxi and Trouvain, J{\"u}rgen and Truong, Khiet P. and Bose, Ines and Kurtenbach, Stephanie and Szczepek Reed, Beatrice and Couper-Kuhlen, Elizabeth}, title = {Prosodie und Phonetik in der Interaktion}, editor = {Barth-Weingarten, Dagmar and Beatrice, Szczepek Reed}, publisher = {Verlag f{\"u}r Gespr{\"a}chsforschung}, address = {Mannheim}, isbn = {978-3-936656-60-2}, year = {2014}, abstract = {Phonetics and prosody have long been recognised as fundamental aspects of spoken discourse.

Besides unpacking the precise mechanisms underlying this practice, the paper also takes stock of the various (and partly variable) lexico-morpho-syntactic, prosodic and bodily-visual elements of conduct that recurrently enter into its composition. Since the practice essentially rests on the speaker's insinuation of having been misunderstood by their co-participant, its relationship to the organization of repair will also be discussed.

Eine Analyse der Konzeption und der Durchf{\"u}hrung des Masterstudiengangs Anglophone Modernities in Literature and Culture" befasst sich mit kolonialen Mustern in der Hochschulbildungspraxis, arbeitet einen theoretisch-fundierten Rahmen f{\"u}r Dekolonisierung akademischer Lehr-/Lernpraxis auf den mikro- und mesodidaktischen Handlungsebenen aus und schl{\"a}gt konkrete L{\"o}sungswege und Dekolonisierungspraktiken vor, die besonders f{\"u}r Studieng{\"a}nge, deren inhaltlichen Ausrichtungen sich postkolonialen Thematiken widmet, von großer Relevanz sind. Anders als typische postkoloniale Studien, besteht die Arbeit nicht nur aus einer theoretischen Ausarbeitung, sondern auch aus einer eigenen empirischen Untersuchung (Triangulation zwischen Dokumentenanalyse und einer Umfrage). In der Arbeit wird die These vertreten und entlang der Arbeit begr{\"u}ndet, dass Bildung von kolonialen Mustern befreit werden soll, damit Partizipation f{\"u}r alle m{\"o}glich wird. Substanz f{\"u}r die Argumentation zur These liefern unterschiedliche Konzeptionen von kritischer P{\"a}dagogik, wie z.B. Ausarbeitungen von Paulo Freire und bell hooks, und deren Verschr{\"a}nkung mit Konzeptionen {\"u}ber anthropologische Modalit{\"a}ten des Lernens Erwachsener (u.a. Mezirow's transformatives Lernen; Arnold's Deutungsmusteransatz) und modernen Ausarbeitungen, die Lernen und sozialer Gerechtigkeit zu verbinden suchen (u.a. der in dem US-amerikanischen Raum verbreitete Ansatz des Social Justice Learning). Weitere Thesen der Abschlussarbeit sind, dass (1) die vorzufindenden Ungleichhalt-erhaltenden Dynamiken an westlichen Hochschulen eine Erbe der kolonialen Zeit und Denkweise darstellen, die im Bildungsbereich weiterhin wirken und im Kontext von Internationalisierung, Migration und Partizipation zur Multiplizierung von sozialer Ungleichheit f{\"u}hren; (2) dass alle, aber besonders diejenigen Studieng{\"a}nge, die sich inhaltlich mit Ungleichheitsph{\"a}nomenen, gesellschaftlicher und kultureller Vielfalt, Macht und herrschaftskritischen Thematiken sowie mit postkolonialer Kritik befassen, bem{\"u}ht sein sollten, im selbst-verantworteten Lernraum Pr{\"a}missen von Equity und Ausgleich von Machtverh{\"a}ltnissen sowie Chancengleichheit f{\"u}r Lehrende und Studierende zu verk{\"o}rpern, um glaubw{\"u}rdig zu bleiben; (3) dass Dekolonisierung vom Bildungsraum durch entsprechendes didaktisches Handeln auf den Meso- (Institution) und Mikroebenen (Lehr-/Lernarrangements) bei ausreichender Wille und Bereitschaft verantwortlicher Fachkr{\"a}fte an Hochschulen m{\"o}glich sind. Das Thema wird auch in einer empirischen Untersuchung bearbeitet. Durch Sichtung von repr{\"a}sentativen Dokumenten mithilfe der Methode ‚close reading', die der Studiengang ver{\"o}ffentlicht hat, durch die exemplarische Analyse der Konzeption einer Lehr-/Lernveranstaltung sowie anhand von einer Studierendenumfrage wird untersucht, inwiefern der Masterstudiengang „Anglophone Modernities in Literature and Culture" an der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam Anforderungen an einer dekolonisierten Hochschulbildung erf{\"u}llt bzw. Wille f{\"u}r dekoloniale Bildungsarbeit wahrnehmbar ist. Die Untersuchungsergebnisse zeugen vom Bedarf f{\"u}r st{\"a}rkere normative Positionierung vonseiten des Studiengangs, w{\"a}hrend viele Praktiken identifiziert wurden, die f{\"u}r das Bekenntnis des Studiengangs zur Partizipation, sozialer Gerechtigkeit und Diversity zeugen. Im letzten Kapitel werden die Ergebnisse der theoretischen Ausarbeitung und der empirischen Untersuchung in dem Konzept einer auf Integrit{\"a}t basierenden P{\"a}dagogik geb{\"u}ndelt und Vorschl{\"a}ge f{\"u}r die Unterrichtspraxis im Studiengang formuliert, die helfen sollen, die Diskrepanz zwischen Wille und Praxis zu {\"u}berwinden, und f{\"u}r das Anstoßen dekolonisierender Entwicklungen an anderen Lehrst{\"u}hlen auch aufschlussreich sein k{\"o}nnten. Ein zentrales Ergebnis der Masterarbeit ist die interdisziplin{\"a}re Herangehensweise im Forschungsdesign, welche postkoloniale Theorien zu Erwachsenenbildung auf der bestehenden akademischen Bildungspraxis bezieht sowie exemplarisch an einer Hochschule in der Form von Fallstudie f{\"u}r einen Studiengang konkret {\"u}berpr{\"u}ft. Des Weiteren liefert die Ausarbeitung Theorie-abgeleiteten Kriterien f{\"u}r die Analyse von Studieng{\"a}ngen in Hinblick auf koloniale Praktiken bzw. Dekolonisierung sowie einen Katalog von Schritten, die implementiert werden k{\"o}nnen, wenn sich ein Studiengang im Rahmen von internen Entwicklungsprozessen von Ungleichheitspraktiken befreien m{\"o}chte. In der theoretischen Ausarbeitung wird der bestehende Begriff der traditionellen bzw. nicht-traditionellen Studierenden weiterentwickelt, so dass dadurch {\"U}berlegungen {\"u}ber Differenzlinien und Diversit{\"a}t von Studierenden differenzierter aufgestellt werden k{\"o}nnen, als wenn dabei lediglich Race, Class, Gender-Kriterien in Betracht gezogen w{\"u}rden.

Zu Beginn der Arbeit werden historische und aktuelle Auffassungen zur Grammatikvermittlung zusammengefasst und im Anschluss der aktuelle Rahmenlehrplan auf seine Aussagen hinsichtlich der zu vermittelnden Grammatik im Fremdsprachenunterricht untersucht. Hierbei wird deutlich dass der Rahmenlehrplan des Landes Brandenburg wenige Vorgaben bez{\"u}glich der grammatischen Ph{\"a}nomene, die behandelt werden sollen, gibt.

Es folgt eine {\"U}bersicht {\"u}ber kognitive Theorien des Zweitspracherwerbs und des Sprachunterrichts, u.a. Krashens Monitorhypothese, R. Ellis' Weak Interface Modell oder Pienemanns Processability Theory. Auf der Basis dieser Theorien werden Kriterien f{\"u}r die Gestaltung von Schulb{\"u}chern, die einen m{\"o}glichst aktuellen Erkenntnissen folgenden Grammatikunterricht unterst{\"u}tzen herausgearbeitet.

The event served as an introduction to a 13-day art exhibition and engaged in a re-evaluation of Eliot's poem after 9/11: while its first part emphasises the connection between Eliot's poem and Christian doctrine, its second part - especially the combination of poetry reading and musical performance - highlights the philosophical and spiritual dimensions of Four Quartets.}, language = {en} } @misc{Wiemann2014, author = {Wiemann, Dirk}, title = {George, Rosemary Marangoly, Indian English and the Fiction of National Literature / [rezensiert von] Dirk Wiemann}, series = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Anglistik und Amerikanistik : ZAA ; a quarterly of language, literature and culture}, volume = {62}, journal = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Anglistik und Amerikanistik : ZAA ; a quarterly of language, literature and culture}, number = {4}, publisher = {DeGruyter}, address = {T{\"u}bingen}, issn = {0044-2305}, doi = {10.1515/zaa-2014-0039}, pages = {385 -- 388}, year = {2014}, abstract = {Rezensiertes Werk George, Rosemary Marangoly, Indian English and the Fiction of National Literature - Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2013. - Hb. viii, 285 pp. - (Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Anglistik und Amerikanistik ; 62(4)) ISBN 978-1-107-04000-7.}, language = {en} }
