    Abstract: This study raises awareness to the emergence of a new genre in world literatureóhybridized literature. It rejects the assumption according to which literatures written in less commonly taught languages should be subsumed into one universally accessible global idiom. Instead, Vakunta challenges literary scholars and readers of literature to regard untranslatability as the key to cross-cultural engagement. The bookís multiple approaches and innumerable sources generate complex interdisciplinary connections and provide an excellent introduction to a complex literary phenomenon alien to literati resident outside the officially bilingual multicultural and multilingual Republic of Cameroon.

    Abstract: This book traces the history of language technology from writing - the first technology specifically designed for language - to digital speech and other contemporary language systems. The book describes the social impact of technological developments over five millennia, and addresses topics such as the ways in which literacy has influenced cognitive and scientific development; the social impact of modern speech technology; the influence of various printing technologies; the usesand limitations of machine translation; how far mass information access is a means for exploitation or enlightenment; the deciphering of ancient scripts; and technical aids for people with language disabilities. Richard Sproat writes in a clear, readable style, introducing linguistic and other scientific concepts as they are needed. His book offers fascinating reading for everyone interested in how language and technology have shaped and continue to shape our day-to-day lives.

    Abstract: Islam in "Liberal" Europe provides the first comprehensive overview of the political and social status of Islam and of Muslim migrants in Europe. In addition to offering a critical assessment of positive and negative trends in Islamic-Western relations, Kai Hafez also engages in a theoretical debate revolving around integration, tolerance, multicultural liberalism, and modern liberal democracy. Assessing Islamophobia as it is manifested in politics, society, media, academia, school, and churches, the author debates the question of whether liberal society in Europe, in order to avoid a growing gap between integrative politics and discriminatory societies, needs a complete renewal not only of political ideologies but also of cultures and institutions.

    Abstract: Shifting Perceptions of Migration in Senegalese Literature, Film, and Social Media takes a multimedia approach to examining representations of emigration from Senegal through the analysis of novels, films, hip-hop songs, and online videos in French and Wolof. Mahriana Rofheart demonstrates how Senegalese creative producers at home and abroad have formally and thematically confronted emigration from Senegal to Europe with texts that reconfigure Senegal's global position and destabilize France's position as a status-laden destination.

    Keywords: Literatur ; Aborigines ; Australien
    Abstract: Indigenous Australian cultures were long known to the world mainly from the writing of anthropologists, ethnographers, historians, missionaries, and others. Indigenous Australians themselves have worked across a range of genres to challenge and reconfigure this textual legacy, so that they are now strongly represented through their own life-narratives of identity, history, politics, and culture. Even as Indigenous-authored texts have opened up new horizons of engagement with Aboriginal knowledge and representation, however, the textual politics of some of these narratives - particularly when cross-culturally produced or edited - can remain haunted by colonially grounded assumptions about orality and literacy.Through an examination of key moments in the theorizing of orality and literacy and key texts in cross-culturally produced Indigenous life-writing, Entangled Subjects explores how some of these works can sustain, rather than trouble, the frontier zone established by modernity in relation to 'talk' and 'text'. Yet contemporary Indigenous vernaculars offer radical new approaches to how we might move beyond the orality-literacy 'frontier', and how modernity and the a-modern are productively entangled in the process.

    Abstract: En 2010, deux equipes de chercheurs des Universites de Paderborn et du Maine ont confronte leurs perspectives sur ce qui est susceptible de produire l' identite , la conviction d'une appartenance commune. Par facteurs , les contributeurs entendent les promoteurs autant que les supports et les references. Loin de projeter dans le passe un modele europeen commun, arbitraire et idealise, ils presentent la complexite des processus de cristallisation d'un nous - donc d'un eux -, variable en fonction du temps et du lieu. Ils privilegient des etudes de cas dans le champ de la litterature, du droit, de la presse, de l'enseignement ou du culte, sans negliger l'analyse theorique des concepts. Im Oktober 2010 trafen zwei Forschergruppen der Universitaeten Le Mans und Paderborn zusammen, um sich ueber die Frage nach Moeglichkeiten der Identitaetskonstruktion - der Frage also, was es Menschen ermoeglicht, sich als Gemeinschaft zu begreifen - auszutauschen. Unter 'Faktoren' verstehen die Beitraeger sowohl Stifter und materielle Traeger als auch Bezugsrahmen von Identitaetsentwuerfen. Ohne der Vergangenheit Europas eine vermeintliche Einheit unterstellen zu wollen, die von vornherein dem Verdacht der Willkuer und der Idealisierung ausgesetzt waere, wollen sie Prozesse der Kristallisierung eines 'Wir' - und damit immer auch eines jeweils 'Anderen' - im konkreten raeumlichen und zeitlichen Kontext und in ihrer Komplexitaet darstellen. Der Band bevorzugt daher die theoriegeleitete Analyse konkreter Paradigmen aus den Bereichen der Literatur und des Rechts, des Presse- und Unterrichtswesens oder der Religion.
