    Abstract: Amid the variety of human experiences, the comic occupies a distinctive place. It is simultaneously ubiquitous, relative, and fragile. In this book, Peter L. Berger reflects on the nature of the comic and its relationship to other human experiences. Originally published in 1997, the second edition includes a new preface reflecting on Berger's work in the intervening years, particularly on the relationship between humor and modernity.

    Abstract: Language not only expresses identities but also constructs them. Starting from that point, Language and Identity examines the interrelationships between language and identities. It finds that they are so closely interwoven, that words themselves are inscribed with ideological meanings. Words and language constitute meanings within discourses and discourses vary in power. The powerful ones reproduce more powerful meanings, colonize other discourses and marginalize or silence the least powerful languages and cultures. Language and culture death occur in extreme cases of marginalization. This book also demonstrates the socio-economic opportunities offered by language choice and the cultural allegiances of language, where groups have been able to create new lives for themselves by embracing new languages in new countries. Language can be a 'double-edged sword' of opportunity and marginalization. Language and Identity argues that bilingualism and in some cases multilingualism can both promote socio-economic opportunity and combat culture death and marginalization. With sound theoretical perspectives drawing upon the work of Bakhtin, Vygotsky, Gumperz, Foucault and others, this book provides readers with a rationale to redress social injustice in the world by supporting minority linguistic and cultural identities and an acknowledgement that access to language can provide opportunity.

    Abstract: The dandy is a Janus-headed figure: one half still imprisoned in the habitus and mentality of the 18th century, and the other half a maverick breaking through the class barriers imposed by the nobility. The new porousness of the world of the nobility cut off the dandy as a social type from his origins. This volume examines various manifestations and transformations of the dandy in the 19th and 20th centuries and presents biographies of some well-known dandies.

    Abstract: The fragility of the liberal democratic state after 1789 is illustrated in the history of the European Jews from the French Revolution to the Holocaust. Emancipation and hope of emancipation amongst the European Jewish population created a plethora of Jewish identities and forms of patriotism. This book takes the original approach of studying European Jewish patriotism as a whole, with particular attention given to creative literature. Despite their growing awareness of racial, genocidal hatred, most European Jews between 1789 and 1939 tended to be patriotic toward the countries of their citizenship, an attitude reflected in the literature of the time. Yet, the common assumption among emancipated Jews that anti-Semitism would fade in a world governed by reason proved false. For millions of European Jews, the infinite possibilities they associated with emancipation came to nothing. The Jewish experience exposed many of the weaknesses and failings of the liberal multicultural state, and demonstrated that its survival cannot be taken for granted but is dependent on vigilance and struggle. By focusing on Jewish patriotism from 1789-1939, this book explores the nature of the liberal state, how it can fail, and the conditions needed for its survival.

    Abstract: Ulrike Kolb erzählt die Geschichte einer jüdisch-deutschen Liebe, die sich immer wieder gegen die Nachwirkungen der Vergangenheit behauptet und am Ende doch an den ganz normalen Konflikten zu zerbrechen droht. Zärtlich und melancholisch blickt Carla auf ihre Ehe zurück, die als amour fou in Israel beginnt. So stark und impulsiv die Gefühle Carla und Yoram verbinden, so schmerzhaft schlagen ihnen bald Skepsis und Zweifel entgegen. Kritisch beäugen seine israelischen Freunde die junge Deutsche, und auch Yorams Mutter Aliza ist wenig begeistert von der Wahl ihres Sohnes. In Deutschland geht es dem jungen Paar kaum anders: Die viel und stolz zitierte "Aufarbeitung der Vergangenheit" scheint an der polierten Oberfläche der Realität abgeperlt zu sein. Aber die Gefährdungen des Glücks kommen nicht nur von außen. Yoram, dem leidenschaftlichen Architekten, gelingt es nicht immer, seine Gefühle von den Albträumen der Kindheit zu lösen. Und auch die drei Frauen in seinem Leben, Aliza, Carla und die Tochter Vered, haben ihre eigenen Erinnerungen, Ängste und Hoffnungen. Am Ende schlägt Vered entschieden den Bogen in die Zukunft.   Biographische Informationen Ulrike Kolb, geb. 1942, lebt als freie Schriftstellerin in Frankfurt am Main. Veröffentlichungen u.a.: Roman ohne Held (1996);Frühstück mit Max (2000); Schönes Leben (2002); Diese eine Nacht (2003).   Rezension Platz 7 der SWR-Bestenliste September 2009 "Kolbs Erzählen ist die Beschwörung einer schöpferischen Kraft der Sprache gegen ein Verschweigen und Verstummen, die doch stets die drohende Verzweiflung im Blick hält." (Beate Tröger, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 1.Oktober 2009) "Der Familienroman, der vier Generationen umfasst, geht aus glaubhafter biografischer Erfahrung hervor, szenisch, episodisch, mitreißend und von hoher Authentizitätssuggestion. Ein mutiges Buch, bedrückend und schön." (Hubert...
    Abstract: Winkels, Börsenblatt, 22.10.09) "Ulrike Kolb schreibt über eine amour fou - als hätte sie nie etwas andres getan. Sie schreibt leicht, und zart, als würde diese Liebe verschwinden, wenn wir im Buch eine Seite umblättern." (Rachel Gehlhoff, MDR, 12.10.2009) "Sprachlich und stilistisch klar und gekonnt erzählt, liegt hier ein wichtiges Buch vor mit Themen, die berühren und nicht zuletzt eine wunderbare Liebesgeschichte." (Bettina Wolf, Der evangelische Buchberater, 4/2009) "Kolb lässt Carla das alles in einem liebevollen Rückblick erzählen. Sie wählt eine feine, zurückhaltende Sprache. Ob es immer so ist, dass ein Kind aus einer solchen mutigen Verbindung so souverän mit den Lasten der Eltern umgeht wie Vered, ist nicht sicher. Ulrike Kolbs Roman weckt keine anderen Hoffnungen, als Literatur sie verheißen kann - das ist aber nicht wenig!" (Saarbrücker Zeitung, 6.11.2009) "Nichts ist hier plakativ, alles wirkt in hohem Grad authentisch, und so ist Ulrike Kolb mit "Yoram" ein so feiner wie eindringlicher Roman gelungen, der an tiefsitzenden Missverständnissen rüttelt." (Claudia Kramatschek, NDR, 4.12.2009) "(...) erzählt Ulrike Kolb mit soviel Empathie, diskreter Einfühlungsgabe und Talent zur eleganten Umschiffung aller gängigen deutsch-jüdischen Klischees, dass man zu keinem Moment das Gefühl hat, hier würde nicht auch das Leben selbst in all seinen Möglichkeiten abgebildet." (Jüdische Zeitung, Dezember 2009) "Im deutschsprachigen Raum sind literarisch überzeugende Bücher, die eine deutsch-israelische Liebesbegegnung erzählen, rar. Ulrike Kolb hat nun den Roman Yoram vorgelegt, der mit hoher Sensibiliät und sicherem erzählerischem Können die Abgründe, Gefährdungen wie auch den existenziellen Mut zweier Menschen gestaltet, die eine Ehe eingehen, in die die Folgen der Verfolgung der NS-Zeit hineinwirken. Die Geschichte zwischen einem Israeli und einer
    Abstract: Deutschen wird durch sie entscheidend mitbestimmt. Von gleichem Gewicht erweisen sich mehr als sechzig Jahre tabuisierte deutsche Familiengeheimnisse." (Orientierung Nr. 23, 73. Jahrgang, 15.12.2009) "Ulrike Kolb ist eine großartige Erzählerin, die eindrucksvolle Bilder und Stimmungen erzeugt, in denen das Leben fließt. Und sie zeigt, wie die Grausamkeiten des Naziregimes noch Jahrzehnte später das Schicksal einzelner Menschen bestimmt." (Ida Dehmer, Bücherschau, Zeitschrift für Betriebs- und Gewerkschaftsbibliotheken, 1/2010) "Was auf den letzten Seiten des Buches klar wird: Es handelt nicht vom Holocaust. Es handelt von unserer Gegenwart, in der der Holocaust langsam aber sicher vergessen wird. Genauer gesagt, die Leute glauben, sich das nun endlich leisten zu können. Gegen dieses Vergessen ist kein Kraut gewachsen. Aber es gibt Menschen, bei denen das Kraut "Vergessen" nicht wirkt. Zu ihnen gehört Ulrike Kolb." (Olga Martynova, literaturkritik.de, September 2010).

    Keywords: Soziolinguistik ; Ethnolinguistik ; Identität
    Abstract: How language shapes and is shaped by identity is a key topic within sociolinguistics. An individual's identity is constituted through a variety of different factors, including the social, linguistic, cultural and ethnic contexts. In this book, Philip Riley looks at these issues against the theoretical background of the sociology of knowledge, and ethnolinguistics, asking how we learn who we are and how social identities are negotiated. The idea of 'the foreigner' is central to this account, yet traditional views of the role of being socially 'other' largely neglect the role of language. Riley bridges this gap by examining problematic aspects of multilingual identities, with particular reference to the notions of 'ethos' and the 'communicative virtues'. This engaging analysis of language and social identity will be essential reading for students of sociolinguistics at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

    Abstract: Undoing Gender constitutes Judith Butler's recent reflections on gender and sexuality, focusing on new kinship, psychoanalysis and the incest taboo, transgender, intersex, diagnostic categories, social violence, and the tasks of social transformation. In terms that draw from feminist and queer theory, Butler considers the norms that govern--and fail to govern--gender and sexuality as they relate to the constraints on recognizable personhood. The book constitutes a reconsideration of her earlier view on gender performativity from Gender Trouble. In this work, the critique of gender norms is clearly situated within the framework of human persistence and survival. And to "do" one's gender in certain ways sometimes implies "undoing" dominant notions of personhood. She writes about the "New Gender Politics" that has emerged in recent years, a combination of movements concerned with transgender, transsexuality, intersex, and their complex relations to feminist and queer theory.

    Abstract: Joha has Janus's double face: On the one hand, he is innocent and stupid; on the other, a trickster. He is a cheater and is cheated. He sets traps for others and falls into traps himself; he is simpleton and liar, victimizer and victim. But as a literary figure he never dies. The nearly 300 stories in this lovely volume are from Sephardic oral literature and ethnic culture. They were told to Matilda Koen-Sarano in their original language, Judeo-Spanish (Ladino), and documented over 21 years. From 17 countries, including the United States, they come together in this first-ever collection of Joha stories to appear in English. Known in some places as Ladino, Judeo-Spanish is a living remnant of the Spanish spoken by the Spanish Jews at the end of the 15th century. Matilda Koen-Sarano, born to a Sephardic family, has devoted her life to the conservation and revitalization of this language, culture, and heritage. Joha, according to Ladino tradition, is a popular folklore character, one who is conniving yet also beguiling. He plays many roles: He makes us laugh; liberates us from taboos; makes it possible to tell the whole, sometimes painful, truth in a humorous way; and helps us triumph over our enemies through laughter. These stories have entertained generations of Sephardic children and adults and will delight readers of any age.

    Abstract: It is natural for people to make the distinction between in-group (Us) and out-group members (Others). What is it that brings people together, or keeps them apart? Ethnicity, nationality, professional expertise or life style? And, above all, what is the role of language in communicating solidarity and detachment?The papers in this volume look at the various cognitive, social, and linguistic aspects of how social identities are constructed, foregrounded and redefined in interaction. Concepts and methodologies are taken from studies in language variation and change, multilingualism, conversation analysis, genre analysis, sociolinguistics, critical discourse analysis, as well as translation studies and applied linguistics. A wide range of languages is brought into focus in a variety of situational, social and discursive environments. The book is addressed to scholars and students of linguistics and related areas of social communication studies.

    Abstract: Here, in one compact volume, is an illuminating survey of Jewish folkways on five continents. Filled with fascinating facts and keen insights, The Jewish Cultural Tapestry is a richly woven fabric that vividly captures the diversity of Jewish life. All traditional Jews are bound together by the common thread of the Torah and the Talmud, notes author Steven Lowenstein, but this thread takes on a different coloration in different parts of the world as Jewish tradition and local non-Jewish customs intertwine. Lowenstein describes these widely varying regional Jewish cultures with needlepoint accuracy, highlighting the often surprising similarities between Jewish and non-Jewish local traditions, and revealing why Jewish customs vary as much as they do from region to region. From Europe to India, Israel to America, The Jewish Cultural Tapestry offers an engaging overview of the customs and folkways of a people united by tradition, yet scattered to the far corners of the earth.

    Abstract: In this volume, Gregory Matoesian uses the notorious 1991 rape trial of William Kennedy Smith to provide an in-depth analysis of language use and its role in that specific trial as well as in the law in general. He draws on the fields of conversation analysis, ethnomethodology, linguistic anthropology and social theory to show how language practices shape--and are shaped by--culture and the law, particularly in the social construction of rape as a legal fact. This analysis examines linguistic strategies from both defense and prosecutorial viewpoints, and how they relate to issues of gender, sexual identity, and power.
