This article discusses how Alex Garland’s The Beach (1996) engages with conceptions of utopian islands, nation, and colonialism in modernity and how it, from this basis, develops a different spatiality that reflects on a more deterritorialized form of imperial domination within late twentieth-century globalization, as exercised by the United States. The novel is shown to subvert, but not to abolish, two spatial formations that originated in early modernity: nation and utopia. Building on Jean Baudrillard’s elaborations regarding simulation and simulacra, the article argues that The Beach creates a hyperreal narrative that does away with the idea of isolated, bounded spaces and that in form and content corresponds with the worldwide dominance of the United States at the end of the twentieth century.

The rising standard language in Early New High German (1350–1650) provides particularly interesting cases for the question of missing heads on all levels of language structure. A well-known example are subordinate clauses lacking a finite auxiliary verb, traditionally called Afinite Constructions. Based on new data, drawn from two treebanks of Early New High German, the present paper will briefly sketch the distribution of ACs, before establishing that they are in fact a type of ellipsis and do not cluster with other non-finite clauses in German. The remainder of the paper addresses the question what kind of information is missing in ACs and how this information is retrieved. Obviously, auxiliary drop in ENHG represents a type of ellipsis rarely attested in present-day German.

Ein goldenes Jahrhundert der vergleichenden Sprachwissenschaft in Deutschland und sein Prolog
(2021)
Como povo marítimo que no século XV iniciou a expansão atlântica europeia, os portugueses entraram cedo em contacto com muitas culturas e línguas diferentes. O contacto entre as línguas fez surgir variações, o que atualmente se traduz numa polifonia no espaço linguístico lusófono e em cujo desenvolvimento ocorreram vários processos de transformação.
Introduction

Blutige Enthaltung
(2021)
Die Militärhistoriker Sönke Neitzel und Matteo Scianna legen die erste historische Darstellung und Analyse der deutschen Syrienpolitik seit 2011 vor. Sie legen die Probleme einer Außenpolitik offen, die für die katastrophale Lage in Syrien und die großen Flüchtlingsbewegungen von dort mit verantwortlich ist. Neitzel und Scianna konstatieren eine Diskrepanz zwischen der wirtschaftlichen Macht und der Bereitschaft, einer gewachsenen politischen Verantwortung im internationalen Krisenmanagement gerecht zu werden – zumal in Fällen, in denen ein militärisches Eingreifen gefragt wäre. Die Autoren betrachten den Syrienkrieg als ein Beispiel, um die Haltung Deutschlands in internationalen Krisen und seine Rolle bei deren Bewältigung kritisch zu beleuchten. Ihr Fazit: Es fehlt hierzulande eine strategische Kultur im Umgang mit den wachsenden internationalen Konflikten. Stattdessen versucht sich die deutsche Außenpolititk möglichst aus der Affäre zu ziehen.
