    Abstract: Nach einem Vorlauf von mehr als drei Jahrzehnten des Suchens und Sammelns im Frankfurter Institut für Sexualwissenschaft legen in diesem Band 60 angesehene Forscherinnen und Forscher aus aller Welt 200 faszinierende Artikel über Leben und Werk bedeutender Sexualforscherinnen und Sexualforscher vor. Hierzu gehören prominente Fachvertreter, die Institute, Zeitschriften oder Fachgesellschaften gründeten, weichenstellende Kongresse abhielten, Standardwerke verfassten, Theorien entwickelten oder provozierende Hypothesen aufstellten. Aber auch wenig bekannte, zu ihrer Zeit und in ihrem Bereich jedoch nachhaltig wirkende Persönlichkeiten sowie Außenseiter, denen die Sexualwissenschaft wichtige Impulse verdankt, sind im vorliegenden Lexikon zu finden - ebenso bekannte Philosophen und Soziologen wie etwa Michel Foucault, Norbert Elias oder Niklas Luhmann. Ein besonderes Anliegen ist den Herausgebern die Erschließung des Werkes jener jüdischen Sexualwissenschaftler, die der Naziterror aus Deutschland vertrieben hat. Es gibt kein vergleichbares Werk weltweit. Volkmar Sigusch, Arzt und Soziologe, ist einer der angesehensten Sexualwissenschaftler der Gegenwart. Er hatte bis zu seiner Emeritierung den Frankfurter Lehrstuhl für Sexualwissenschaft inne und gründete das gleichnamige Institut. Günter Grau, Medizinhistoriker, arbeitete an den medizinhistorischen Instituten der Universität Leipzig und der Charité Berlin sowie am Institut für empirische und angewandte Soziologie der Universität Bremen.

    Abstract: This article is based on a web survey of on-line and print translations into English of poetry by writers from Bosnia since the 1992-1995 war. Combining insights from Actor Network Theory, Activity Theory and Goffman's Social Game Theory, it examines the relationships between human and textual agents in the production of poetry translations. It maps these relationships onto agents' geographic 'positionality'. Among the findings are:(1) Poetry translation is produced by networks of agents working across a 'distributed' space. This implies that it is simplistic to conceptualise literary translation in terms of one agent's loyalty to one cultural space.(2) Translators often carry less power in a production network than an anthology/journal editor or a living source poet.(3) Networks involving players from source-language regions working in a target-language country are particularly effective in publication terms.

    Abstract: Edward Said is widely recognized for his work as a critic and theorist of Orientalism and the Palestine crisis, but far less attention has been devoted to his considerable body of literary and cultural criticism. In this edited collection, the contributors - many among the foremost Said scholars in the world - examine Said as the literary critic; his relationship to other major contemporary thinkers (including Derrida, Ricoeur, Barthes and Bloom); and his involvement with major movements and concerns of his time (such as music, Feminism, New Humanism, and Marxism). Featuring freshly carved out essays on new areas of intervention, the volume is an indispensable addition for those interested in Edward Said and the many areas in which his legacy looms.

    Description / Table of Contents: In Zeiten transkultureller Bewegungen erweist sich die Literatur, die sich aus verschiedenen Gründen nicht in nationale Grenzen einpassen lässt, als ein zentrales Untersuchungsfeld: Kulturelle Veränderungen, die durch Migration von Menschen, Ideen, Waren und Sprachen entstehen, lassen sich hier auf eine umfassende Weise analysieren. In aktuellen Fallstudien untersuchen die Beiträge dieses Bandes unter anderem kulturelle Grenzziehungen in muslimischen bzw. türkischen Gemeinschaften und setzen sich dabei mit dem neuen »Zwang zur Kultur« auseinander. Daran anschließend wird der Begriff »Weltliteratur« auf seine Brauchbarkeit in diesen Kontexten untersucht, insbesondere im Hinblick auf nicht-europäische, etwa afrikanische Repräsentationsmodelle von Literatur. Einzelanalysen von Filmen und literarischen Texten zeigen, dass die so genannte Migrationsliteratur eine ästhetische Reflexion auf kulturelle Integration einerseits, aber auch auf verschiedene Formen von sozialer, individueller und sprachlicher Desintegration andererseits ist. Der Band wird ergänzt durch zwei Interviews mit Ilja Trojanow und Feridun Zaimoglu

    Abstract: Der aktuelle Übergang von der Industrie- zur Wissensgesellschaft geht mit räumlichen und zeitlichen Flexibilisierungen von Arbeit, Freizeit, Konsum und Mobilität einher. Dieser tiefgreifende gesellschaftliche Umbruch zeigt sich nicht nur in der individuellen Alltagsgestaltung der betroffenen Menschen, sondern führt auch zu einer Überformung des Rhythmus unserer Städte, in denen die Ursachen und Konsequenzen der Auflösung kollektiver Zeitstrukturen besonders deutlich erkennbar sind. Die sozialgeographische Studie zeigt am Beispiel der Metropole Hamburg, welche Folgen diese Entwicklung für Städte und ihre Bewohner hat

    Abstract: Drawing on examples from a wide range of languages and social setting, The Routledge Handbook of Sociolinguistics Around the World is the first single-volume collection surveying current and recent research trends in international sociolinguistics. With over 30 chapters written by leading authorities in the region concerned, all continents and their respective regions are covered. The book will serve as an important tool to help widen the perspective on sociolinguistics to readers of English. Divided into sections covering: The Americas, Asia, Australasia, Africa and the Middle East, and Europe, the book provides readers with a solid, up-to-date appreciation of the interdisciplinary nature of the field of sociolinguistics in each area. It clearly explains the patterns and systematicity that underlie language variation in use, as well as the ways in which alternations between different language varieties mark personal style, social power and national identity. The Routledge Handbook of Sociolinguistics around the World is the ideal resource for all students on undergraduate sociolinguistics courses and researchers involved in the study of language, society and power.

    Abstract: Jeff McMahan urges us to reject the view, dominant throughout history, that mere participation in an unjust war is not wrong. He argues powerfully that combatants who fight for an unjust cause are acting wrongly and are themselves morally responsible for their actions. We must rethink our attitudes to the moral role of the individual in war. - ;Killing a person is in general among the most seriously wrongful forms of action, yet most of us accept that it can be permissible to kill people on a large scale in war. Does morality become more permissive in a state of war? Jeff McMahan argues that c...

    Abstract: From a very young age we are told not to stare, and one hallmark of maturation is the ability to resist (or at least hide) our staring behavior. And yet, rarely do we master the impulse. Despite the complicated role it plays in our development, and its unique brand of visual enticement, staring has not been considered before as a suitable object for socio-cultural analysis. What is it about certain kinds of people that makes it impossible to take our eyes off them? Why are some visual stimuli irresistible? Why does staring produce so much anxiety? Drawing on examples from art, media, fashion, history and memoir, Garland-Thomson defines staring, explores the factors that motivate it, and considers the targets and the effects of the stare. A bodily inventory then enumerates how stares actually operate in daily life. A section on "Bodies" focuses on the question of size and scale as key indicators of normalcy, while certain body parts show themselves to be disproportionately arresting, as passages on "Faces" "Hands" and "Breasts" reveal. A concluding chapter on "Beholding" considers the frisson at play between starer and staree and offers an alternative way of understanding visual communication between people. Featuring over forty illustrations, Staring captures the stimulating combination of symbolic, material and emotional factors that make staring so irresistible while endeavoring to shift the usual response to staring, shame, into an engaged self-consideration. Elegant and provocative, this book advances new ways of thinking about visuality and the body that will appeal to readers who are interested in the overlap between the humanities and human behaviors.

In der Verschränkung von Bild, Text und topographischen Daten sind sie ein anschauliches Beispiel für die »Textualität des Raumes«. So generieren Stadtpläne in den unterschiedlichsten Medien innovative Erzählformen. Aus literatur- und kulturwissenschaftlichem Blickwinkel stellt »Metropolen im Maßstab« die Kartographien von Bleston, Berlin, Paris, London, Istanbul, Los Angeles, New York, Montréal, Havanna sowie Cuzco, Abancay und Chimbote in Peru ins Zentrum und betrachtet ihre Übersetzungen in künstlerische Artefakte. Am Leitfaden von Text-, Bild- und Filmlektüren ergibt sich ein Panorama aktueller raumtheoretischer und urbanistischer Diskurse

    Abstract: What makes someone willing to die, not for a nation, but for a language? In the mid-20th century, southern India saw a wave of dramatic suicides in the name of language. Lisa Mitchell traces the colonial-era changes in knowledge and practice linked to the Telugu language that lay behind some of these events. As identities based on language came to appear natural, the road was paved for the political reorganization of the Indian state along linguistic lines after independence

While the other volumes select specific philosophical, cognitive, grammatical, social, cultural, variational, interactional, or discursive angles, this first volume reviews basic notions that pervade the pragmatic literature, such as deixis, implicitness, speech acts, context, and the like. It situates the field of pragmatics, broadly defined as the cognitive, social, and cultural science of lang

This book examines metaphors drawing on combinations of visuals, language, gestures, sound, and music. Investigated texts include advertising, political cartoons, comics, film, songs, and oral communication. Where appropriate, the influence of genre and cultural factors is thematized.

    Abstract: The ten volumes of Handbook of Pragmatics Highlights focus on the most salient topics in the field of pragmatics, thus dividing its wide interdisciplinary spectrum in a transparent and manageable way. While the other volumes select specific philosophical, cognitive, grammatical, social, cultural, variational, or discursive angles, this fourth volume is dedicated to the empirical investigation of the way human beings organize their interaction in natural environments and how they use talk for accomplishing actions and their contexts. Starting from Goffman's observation that interaction exhibits

    Abstract: Integration wurde in den letzten Jahren auch in Deutschland zum zentralen Schlagwort in der Migrationsdebatte. Während das Konzept einerseits positiv »Teilhabe« verspricht, fungiert es in der deutschen Migrationspolitik potentiell als Exklusionsmechanismus. Dieses Buch nimmt aus Perspektiven der Politik, Wissenschaft, Kunst und des Aktivismus das Integrationsparadigma kritisch unter die Lupe. Entgegen der öffentlichen Integrationsforderung an hier lebende Migranten nehmen die Beiträge die Perspektive der Migration ein und loten in verschiedenen Praxisfeldern aus, was dies hinsichtlich politischer und wissenschaftlicher Konzepte in einem Europa der Migration bedeutet

    Abstract: James Dawson first published Australian Aborigines in 1881, after deciding that his careful description of the tribes, languages, customs, and characteristics of the indigenous peoples of the western district of Victoria was too bulky for its originally intended publication in a newspaper. Essentially a field-inspired anthropological account of the dwindling Aboriginal population, written before the emergence of anthropology as a formal discipline, Dawson's book draws on his daughter's ability to speak the local languages and attempts a balanced description of a culture he considered ill-used and under-appreciated by white settlers. Minute details about clothing, tools, settlement and beliefs combine to depict a complex society that possessed highly ritualised customs deserving of respect. Dawson also included an extensive vocabulary of words in three indigenous languages that he hoped would facilitate further cross-cultural understanding. His work provides valuable source material for modern researchers in anthropology and linguistics

    Abstract: This insightful study proposes a unified theory of speech through which conflicting ideas about language might be understood. It is founded on a number of key points, such as the continuum of linguistic behaviour, extensive variation in language features, the importance of regional and social proximity to shared linguistic production, and differential frequency as a key factor in linguistic production both in regional and social groups and in text corpora. The study shows how this new linguistics of speech does not reject rules in favour of language use, or reject language use in favour of rules; rather, it shows how rules can come from language as people use it. Written in a clear, engaging style and containing invaluably accessible introductions to complex theoretical concepts, this work will be of great interest to students and scholars of sociolinguistics, dialectology and corpus linguistics

    Abstract: "The language we use forms an important part of our sense of who we are - of our identity. This book outlines the relationship between our identity as members of groups - ethnic, national, religious and gender and the language varieties important to each group. What is a language? What is a dialect? Are there such things as language 'rights'? Must every national group have its own unique language? How have languages, large and small, been used to spread religious ideas? Why have particular religious and linguistic 'markers' been so central, singly or in combination, to the ways in which we think about ourselves and others? Using a rich variety of examples, the book highlights the linkages among languages, dialects and identities, with special attention given to religious, ethnic and national allegiances."--Jacket

    Abstract: Most societies in today's world are multilingual. 'Language contact' occurs when speakers of different languages interact and their languages influence each other. This book is an introduction to the subject, covering individual and societal multilingualism, the acquisition of two or more languages from birth, second language acquisition in adulthood, language change, linguistic typology, language processing and the structure of the language faculty. It explains the effects of multilingualism on society and language policy, as well as the consequences that long-term bilingualism within communities can have for the structure of languages. Drawing on the author's own first-hand observations of child and adult bilingualism, the book provides a clear analysis of such phenomena as language convergence, grammatical borrowing, and mixed languages

    Abstract: 'Representing Bushmen' draws on the work of Jacques Derrida, Edward Said, and Martin Bernal to show how the study of language was integral to the formation of racial discrimination in South Africa. Author Shane Moran demonstrates the central role of literary history to the cultural racism and ideology that fed into apartheid by tracing the ethno-aesthetic figuration of the Bushmen in W. H. I. Bleek's theory of the origin of language. Moran examines the gestation of colonial ideology, and provocatively traces aspects of the post-apartheid rhetoric of commemoration and national unity to their colonialist roots. This detailed and compelling volume contributes significantly to current trends in post-apartheid scholarship. Moran emphasizes the need for a cautious interrogation of the colonial archive and scrutiny of critical discourses used by the would-be postcolonial intellectual, and poses a timely challenge to those committed to exorcising that legacy. Shane Moran teaches at the University of KwaZulu-Natal

    Abstract: 'Conversation analysis' is an approach to the study of social interaction that focuses on practices of speaking that recur across a range of contexts and settings. The early studies in this tradition were based on the analysis of English conversation. More recently, however, conversation analysts have begun to study talk in a broader range of communities around the world. Through detailed analyses of recorded conversations, this book examines differences and similarities across a wide range of languages including Finnish, Japanese, Tzeltal Mayan, Russian and Mandarin. Bringing together interrelated methodological and analytic contributions, it explores topics such as the role of gaze in question-and-answer sequences, the organization of repair, and the design of responses to assessments. The emerging comparative perspective demonstrates how the structure of talk is inflected by the local circumstances within which it operates.

    Abstract: Language policy is all about choices. If you are bilingual or plurilingual, you have to choose which language to use. Even if you speak only one language, you have choices of dialects and styles. Some of these choices are the result of management, reflecting conscious and explicit efforts by language managers to control the choices. This book presents a specific theory of language management. Bernard Spolsky reviews research on the family, religion, the workplace, the media, schools, legal and health institutions, the military and government. Also discussed are language activists, international organisations, and human rights relative to language, and the book concludes with a review of language managers and management agencies. A model is developed that recognises the complexity of language management, makes sense of the various forces involved, and clarifies why it is such a difficult enterprise

    Description / Table of Contents: Integration wurde in den letzten Jahren auch in Deutschland zum zentralen Schlagwort in der Migrationsdebatte. Während das Konzept einerseits positiv »Teilhabe« verspricht, fungiert es in der deutschen Migrationspolitik potentiell als Exklusionsmechanismus. Dieses Buch nimmt aus Perspektiven der Politik, Wissenschaft, Kunst und des Aktivismus das Integrationsparadigma kritisch unter die Lupe. Entgegen der öffentlichen Integrationsforderung an hier lebende Migranten nehmen die Beiträge die Perspektive der Migration ein und loten in verschiedenen Praxisfeldern aus, was dies hinsichtlich politischer und wissenschaftlicher Konzepte in einem Europa der Migration bedeutet

    Abstract: The ten volumes of Handbook of Pragmatics Highlights focus on the most salient topics in the field of pragmatics, thus dividing its wide interdisciplinary spectrum in a transparent and manageable way. While the other volumes select specific philosophical, cognitive, grammatical, social, cultural, variational, or discursive angles, this fourth volume is dedicated to the empirical investigation of the way human beings organize their interaction in natural environments and how they use talk for accomplishing actions and their contexts. Starting from Goffman's observation that interaction e...

    Abstract: This book is a comprehensive survey of the structure, organization and institutionalization of local community religious traditions in north China villages in the twentieth century. These traditions have their own forms of leaders, deities and beliefs. Despite much local variation one everywhere finds similar temples, images, offerings and temple festivals, all supported by practical concerns for divine aid to deal with the problems of everyday life. These local traditions are a structure in the history of Chinese religions; they have a clear sense of their own integrity and rules, handed down by their ancestors. There are Daoist, Buddhist and government influences on these traditions, but they must be adapted to the needs of local communities. It is the villagers who build temples and organize festivals, in which all members of the community are expected to participate and contribute. With chapters on such topics as historical origins and development, leadership and organization, temple festivals, temples and deities, and beliefs and values

    Abstract: Metaphor pervades discourse and may govern how we think and act. But most studies only discuss its verbal varieties. This book examines metaphors drawing on combinations of visuals, language, gestures, sound, and music. Investigated texts include advertising, political cartoons, comics, film, songs, and oral communication. Where appropriate, the influence of genre and cultural factors is thematized

    Abstract: The book presents Cognitive Linguistics as a framework for the study of cultural variation in world Englishes and within languages in general by offering a corpus-based analysis of the linguistic realization of the cultural model of community in African English.

    Abstract: The book is the first of its kind to establish Cognitive Linguistics as a research paradigm within the field of world Englishes. The authors survey the main tenets of both areas of linguistic enquiry and suggest that the theoretical and methodological apparatus developed both within Cognitive Linguistics generally and within its novel sub-discipline Cognitive Sociolinguistics can overcome certain limitations inherent in traditional approaches to cultural variation in language. They present a case study of the linguistic realization of the cultural model of community in African English as an exemplar for the investigation of cultural models in other varieties of English. Corpus-linguistic methods are combined with conceptual metaphor analysis and blending theory to elucidate a vast network of conceptualizations salient to speakers of African English. The findings, based on computer corpora and a range of additional sources, are discussed against the background of work in anthropology, religious studies, and political science. The book also reflects on the role of English in intercultural communication and concludes with a comparison of Cognitive Linguistics and pragmatic functionalism, placing the former in the wider framework of a hermeneutic philosophy that stresses dialogic understanding.

    Description / Table of Contents: Ausschweifendes Feiern, maßloser Konsum, Workaholics oder Sportfreaks - der Exzess ist ein zentrales und doch umstrittenes Phänomen unserer Kultur. Während die einen den Überschuss vehement ablehnen und nach dem rechten Maß rufen, suchen die anderen geradezu nach exzessiven Erfahrungen. Diese Spannung fordert eine wissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzung heraus. Aus den Perspektiven von Theologie, Kunstwissenschaft und Philosophie wird im vorliegenden Band nach der Realität von Exzessen gefragt. Die Beiträge diskutieren Bedeutungen der Maßlosigkeit in unterschiedlichen Kontexten und suchen nach Handlungsperspektiven

    Abstract: Was bedeutet uns »das Bauhaus« heute - im Nachspann der Postmoderne unter den Bedingungen von Globalisierung, weltweitem Daten- und Kapitalaustausch, medialer Vernetzung, Umkodierung von Nationalgrenzen, Weltmigration und ebensolchen planetarischen Entwicklungen, die sich in der Gründungszeit der modernen Weltbaubewegung gerade erst abzuzeichnen begannen? Der Band inszeniert »das Bauhaus« als eine Doppelfigur, die der Immobilie, dem Haus, der Bleibe und dem Bauen ebenso verpflichtet ist wie der Mobilität, dem Reisen, dem Exil und der Heimatlosigkeit, wofür die Figur eines Schiffes namens »Bauhaus« steht

    Abstract: Tauchen Monster in der Kulturgeschichte des Menschen auf, verbreiten sie Schrecken. Zugleich stellen sie auch Objekte der Faszination dar - eben weil sie anders zu sein scheinen. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes beschäftigen sich mit der jeweiligen historischen Gestalt und Konzeptualisierung von Monstern und beleuchten den Facettenreichtum des Monsters und des Monströsen. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit wird dabei der Funktionalität dieser Gestalten für den Menschen eingeräumt, die vom Identitätsgenerator qua Grenzziehung zum nicht-mehr-menschlichen Leben bis hin zur Verheißung einer posthumanistischen Zukunft reicht

    Abstract: Vor dem Hintergrund stetig zunehmender weltweiter Migrationsbewegungen wird die Erfahrung des Fremdseins zum wesentlichen Bestandteil der menschlichen Existenz. Dies erfordert ein radikales Umdenken hinsichtlich gesellschaftlicher Kategorien wie Identität, Sprache und Kultur. Anhand der Verwendung der Spiegelmetapher untersucht dieses Buch die literarische Realisierung eines anderen Identitätsbegriffs in Erzählungen von Autorinnen nicht deutscher Herkunft. Der intrakulturelle Zwischenraum, den besonders Emine Sevgi Özdamar in ihrer Verwendung des Spiegels entwirft, verweist auf die sprachpolitische Dimension ihres Schreibens. Die Forschungsperspektive zeigt eine nahe Zukunft, in der die sich bei Özdamar artikulierende Erfahrung einer irreduziblen Mehrsprachigkeit Alltag wird

    Abstract: Proverbs and exempla are two literary genres which developed in parallel throughout the Middle Ages.

The interdisciplinary papers in the present volume examine the co-existence of proverbs and exempla in both Latin literature and the vernacular literatures of the Romance and Germanic languages.

    Abstract: The way in which people address one another is crucial to expressing social relationships and is closely linked with cultural values. In English we call some people by their first names, and others 'Mr' or 'Ms', followed by their surname. In some other languages there are different ways of saying 'you' depending on the degree of social distance. Exploring practices in the family, school, university, the workplace and in letters, this book reveals patterns in the varied ways people choose to address one another, from pronouns to first names, from honorifics to titles and last names. Examples are taken from contemporary English, French, German and Swedish, using rich data from focus group research, interviews, chat groups, and participant observation.

    Abstract: The way we say the words we say helps us convey our intended meanings. Indeed, the tone of voice we use, the facial expressions and bodily gestures we adopt while we are talking, often add entirely new layers of meaning to those words. How the natural non-verbal properties of utterances interact with linguistic ones is a question that is often largely ignored. This book redresses the balance, providing a unique examination of non-verbal behaviours from a pragmatic perspective. It charts a point of contact between pragmatics, linguistics, philosophy, cognitive science, ethology and psychology, and provides the analytical basis to answer some important questions: How are non-verbal behaviours interpreted? What do they convey? How can they be best accommodated within a theory of utterance interpretation?

    Abstract: To clarify and facilitate our inquiries we need to define a disquotational truth predicate that we are directly licensed to apply not only to our own sentences as we use them now, but also to other speakers' sentences and our own sentences as we used them in the past. The conventional wisdom is that there can be no such truth predicate. For it appears that the only instances of the disquotational pattern that we are directly licensed to accept are those that define 'is true' for ourown sentences as we use them now. Gary Ebbs shows that this appearance is illusory. He constructs an account of w

    Abstract: The 21st century is awash with ever more mixed and remixed images, writing, layout, sound, gesture, speech, and 3D objects. Multimodality looks beyond language and examines these multiple modes of communication and meaning making. Multimodality: A Social Semiotic Approach to Contemporary Communication represents a long-awaited and much anticipated addition to the study of multimodality from the scholar who pioneered and continues to play a decisive role in shaping the field. Written in an accessible manner and illustrated with a wealth of photos and illustrations to clearly demonstrate the points made, Multimodality: A Social Semiotic Approach to Contemporary Communication deliberately sets out to locate communication in the everyday, covering topics and issues not usually discussed in books of this kind, from traffic signs to mobile phones. In this book, Gunther Kress presents a contemporary, distinctive and widely applicable approach to communication. He provides the framework necessary for understanding the attempt to bring all modes of meaning-making together under one unified theoretical roof. This exploration of an increasingly vital area of language and communication studies will be of interest to advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students in the fields of English language and applied linguistics, media and communication studies and education.

    Abstract: "Larvatus prodeo," announced René Descartes at the beginning of the seventeenth century: "I come forward, masked." Deliberately disguising or silencing their most intimate thoughts and emotions, many early modern Europeans besides Descartes-princes, courtiers, aristocrats and commoners alike-chose to practice the shadowy art of dissimulation. For men and women who could not risk revealing their inner lives to those around them, this art of incommunicativity was crucial, both personally and politically. Many writers and intellectuals sought to explain, expose, justify, or condemn the emergence of this new culture of secrecy, and from Naples to the Netherlands controversy swirled for two centuries around the powers and limits of dissimulation, whether in affairs of state or affairs of the heart. This beautifully written work crisscrosses Europe, with a special focus on Italy, to explore attitudes toward the art of dissimulation in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Discussing many canonical and lesser-known works, Jon R. Snyder examines the treatment of dissimulation in early modern treatises and writings on the court, civility, moral philosophy, political theory, and in the visual arts.

    Keywords: Ungeheuer ; Kultur ; Literatur ; Das Monströse
    Abstract: Monsters. Real or imagined, literal or metaphorical, they have exerted a dread fascination on the human mind for many centuries. They attract and repel us, intrigue and terrify us, and in the process reveal something deeply important about the darker recesses of our collective psyche. Stephen Asma's On Monsters is a wide-ranging cultural and conceptual history of monsters--how they have evolved over time, what functions they have served for us, and what shapes they are likely to take in the future. Asma begins with a letter from Alexander the Great in 326 B.C. detailing an encounter in India with an "enormous beast--larger than an elephantthree ominous horns on its forehead." From there the monsters come fast and furious--Behemoth and Leviathan, Gog and Magog, the leopard-bear-lion beast of Revelation, Satan and his demons, Grendel and Frankenstein, circus freaks and headless children, right up to the serial killers and terrorists of today and the post-human cyborgs of tomorrow. Monsters embody our deepest anxieties and vulnerabilities, Asma argues, but they also symbolize the mysterious and incoherent territory just beyond the safe enclosures of rational thought. Exploring philosophical treatises, theological tracts, newspapers, pamphlets, films, scientific notebooks, and novels, Asma unpacks traditional monster stories for the clues they offer about the inner logic of an era's fears and fascinations. In doing so, he illuminates the many ways monsters have become repositories for those human qualities that must be repudiated, externalized, and defeated. Asma suggests that how we handle monsters reflects how we handle uncertainty, ambiguity, insecurity. And in a world that is daily becoming less secure and more ambiguous, he shows how we might learn to better live with monsters--and thereby avoid becoming one.

    Abstract: Weiblicher Exhibitionismus ist - da kulturell verankert - im Gegensatz zur strafrechtlich verfolgten männlichen Zeigelust gesellschaftlich integriert. Die Zurschaustellung des weiblichen Körpers kann Ausdruck erotischer Macht und damit eines selbstbestimmten Sexualsubjekts sein. So nutzen Marilyn Monroe und Madonna den befreienden Charakter erotischer Selbstdarstellung und künstlerischer Provokation für progressive Stellungnahmen. Mit soziologischen, medizinischen, psychologischen sowie juristischen Argumenten und unter Rückgriff auf ihre Erfahrungen als Tänzerin zeigt Ulrike Wohler die emanzipatorischen Ziele des weiblichen Exhibitionismus auf

    Abstract: The volume presents a selection of contributions by leading scholars in the field of code-switching. In the past the phenomenon of code-switching was studied within different subfields of linguistics and they all took their own perspectives on code-switching without taking into account findings from other subdisciplines. This book raises a question of a much broader multidisciplinary approach to studying the phenomenon of code-switching; calls for integration of disciplines; and illustrates how frameworks from one subfield can be applied to models in another. The volume includes survey chapters, empirical studies, contributions that use empirical data to test new hypotheses about code-switching, or suggest new approaches and models for the study of code-switching, and chapters that discuss principles and constraints of code-switching, and code-switching vs. transfer. The book is easily accessible to anyone who is interested in the phenomenon of code-switching in bilinguals.

    Abstract: Stadtpläne übersetzen den dreidimensionalen urbanen Raum in eine zweidimensionale Fläche. In der Verschränkung von Bild, Text und topographischen Daten sind sie ein anschauliches Beispiel für die »Textualität des Raumes«. So generieren Stadtpläne in den unterschiedlichsten Medien innovative Erzählformen.Aus literatur- und kulturwissenschaftlichem Blickwinkel stellt »Metropolen im Maßstab« die Kartographien von Bleston, Berlin, Paris, London, Istanbul, Los Angeles, New York, Montréal, Havanna sowie Cuzco, Abancay und Chimbote in Peru ins Zentrum und betrachtet ihre Übersetzungen in künstlerische Artefakte. Am Leitfaden von Text-, Bild- und Filmlektüren ergibt sich ein Panorama aktueller raumtheoretischer und urbanistischer Diskurse

    Abstract: Das Autoritätsgefüge scheint im Wandel begriffen. Anhand von Fallstudien aus Theorie und Kunst zeigt die kulturwissenschaftliche Studie, dass sich diese postulierte Bewegung kaum als »Befreiung« oder, umgekehrt, als »Desaster« fassen lässt. Vielmehr hat sie Implikationen für die Konzeptionen von »Autorschaft« und »Handlungsmacht« in westlichen Gesellschaften.Welche Phantasmen, Aggressions- und Genießensdimensionen - denn um deren Neuverhandlung geht es hier - geraten in den Blick, wenn herkömmliche symbolisch-autoritative Gefüge zur Debatte stehen?

    Abstract: Verschiebung und Wiederherstellung von Bedeutung - diese Doppelbewegung des Performativen versucht das Buch in Bezug auf die Frage nach der (Re-)Produktion von Verhältnissen der Differenz im Kontext von Medien und Medienaneignung zu präzisieren. Unter Berücksichtigung dekonstruktivistischer, diskurstheoretischer und in den Cultural Studies entwickelter Begriffe und Ideen werden verschiedene Perspektiven auf das Verhältnis von »Medium« und »Subjekt« vorgeschlagen. Das Ziel dieser erläuternden Verknüpfungen ist es, einen medienpädagogischen Raum zu erkunden, in dem die Verstricktheit des medialen Textes, seiner Aneignung sowie seines pädagogischen Handelns in vielfältige Differenzverhältnisse zum Thema werden kann
