  abstract  = {Die vorliegende Arbeit behandelt das Vorkommen von Schimpfw{\"o}rtern auf der online Plattform "Reddit". Die drei zugrundeliegenden Forschungsfragen sind: Wie oft werden Schimpfw{\"o}rter benutzt? Wie werden diese von den Lesern aufgenommen? Beeinflusst das Thema einer Konversation die Reaktion der Leser und die allgemeine H{\"a}ufigkeit der Nutzung? Die zugrundeliegenden Daten beinhalten fast 900 Millionen W{\"o}rter und stammen aus dem Februar 2017. Sie sind damit h{\"o}chstaktuell und repr{\"a}sentativ. Im Vergleich zu anderen Untersuchungen ist das Korpus damit wesentlich gr{\"o}ßer. Zus{\"a}tzlich werden im theoretischen Teil die linguistischen Grundlagen zu Schimpfw{\"o}rtern er{\"o}rtert. Dazu geh{\"o}ren u.a. Konzepte wie die H{\"o}flichkeitstheorie, das Thema Tabu und die dazugeh{\"o}renden Worte und Zensur. Dies wird getan um die Faktoren, die die Benutzung und Verwendung von Schimpfw{\"o}rtern beeinflussen darzulegen. Dabei wird herausgestellt, was Schimpfw{\"o}rter so besonders im Vergleich zu anderen Wortgruppen macht. Zudem werden weitere Forschungsergebnisse, die aus anderen Korpora stammen dargelegt und hinterher mit den Resultaten verglichen. Dies beinhaltet Korpora die sich ebenfalls aus Onlinekommunikationen zusammensetzen, sowie Korpora die gesprochene Sprache wiedergeben. Die Ergebnisse aus allen dargestellten Korpora behandeln Ergebnisse aus der englischen Sprache. Die Ergebnisse dieser Studie weisen daraufhin, dass die Schimpfw{\"o}rter auf Reddit ungef{\"a}hr gleichh{\"a}ufig wie auf anderen Plattformen benutzt werden. Die Reaktionen auf diese Schimpfw{\"o}rter ist {\"u}berdurchschnittlich positiv, was darauf schließen l{\"a}sst, dass die Benutzung von Schimpfw{\"o}rtern auf Reddit nicht als unh{\"o}flich aufgefasst wird. Zudem konnte ein Einfluss des Diskussionsthemas auf die H{\"a}ufigkeit und Rezeption von Schimpfw{\"o}rtern festgestellt werden.},

  abstract  = {This article considers Isabella Bird's representation of medicine in Unbeaten Tracks in Japan (1880) and Journeys in Persia and Kurdistan (1891), the two books in which she engages most extensively with both local (Chinese/Islamic) and Western medical science and practice. 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.},

  abstract  = {This essay reads Sam Selvon's novel The Lonely Londoners (1956) as a milestone in the decolonisation of British fiction. After an introduction to Selvon and the core composition of the novel, it discusses the ways in which the narrative takes on issues of race and racism, how it in the tradition of the Trinidadian carnival confronts audiences with sexual profanation and black masculine swagger, and not least how the novel, especially through its elaborate use of creole Englishes, reimagines London as a West Indian metropolis. The essay then turns more systematically to the ways in which Selvon translates Western literary models and their isolated subject positions into collective modes of narrative performance taken from Caribbean orature and the calypsonian tradition. The Lonely Londoners breathes entirely new life into the ossified conventions of the English novel, and imbues it with unforeseen aesthetic, ethical, political and epistemological possibilities.},

  abstract  = {Postcolonial Justice' addresses a major issue in current postcolonial theory and beyond, namely, the question of how to reconcile an ethics grounded in the reciprocal acknowledgment of diversity and difference with the normative, if not universal thrust that appears to energize any notion of justice. The concept of postcolonial justice shared by the essays in this volume carries an unwavering commitment to difference within and beyond Europe, while equally rejecting radical cultural essentialisms, which refuse to engage in "utopian ideals" of convivial exchange across a plurality of subject positions. Such utopian ideals can no longer claim universal validity, as in the tradition of the European enlightenment; instead they are bound to local frames of speaking from which they project world.},
