The mediation of German cultural studies has become a firm component of the foreign language lessons, because without knowledge about the culture of the target language communication cannot succeed. However, the aim of the study of the German cultural study lessons should not be to provide a comprehensive picture for the purposes of the actual study of the culture and geography, but to choose from the contents with the help of which then an intercultural competence can be developed. The concept "German cultural studies" is extended by the component "intercultural", so that now we speak of „German cultural and intercultural studies“. This contribution would like to point out which developments the field „German cultural and intercultural studies“ has taken in Turkey and which role the study of intercultural aspects plays in the German lessons at school and in the teacher advanced training. Furthermore this contribution would like to introduce the teaching draughts which were sketched for the teaching field “German cultural and intercultural studies” in the German teacher training. Moreover, it should be discussed with which subjects and methodical possibilities the learning aim of an intercultural competence can be reached.
The German word also, similar to English so, is traditionally considered to be a sentence adverb with a consecutive meaning, i.e. it indicates that the propositional content of the clause containing it is some kind of consequence of what has previously been said. As a sentence adverb, also has its place within the core of the German sentence, since this is the proper place for an adverb to occur in German. The sentence core offers two proper positions for adverbs: the so-called front field and the middle field. In spoken German, however, also often occurs in sentence-initial position, outside the sentence itself. In this paper, I will use excerpts of German conversations to discuss and illustrate the importance of the sentence positions and the discourse positions for the functions of also on the basis of some German conversations.
Learner autonomy has been discussed since the 70th in the last century. It was argued, that learners should be familiar with foreign language learning, because language learning will get more and more important in a society of the future. So even after school time people should be able to develop foreign language skills without any formal teaching. In recent time a new concept has been added: teacher autonomy. Learner autonomy and teacher autonomy are interdependent. In other words: We can not develop learner autonomy without developing teacher autonomy. Our discussion starts with some simple facts. Gordon Wells observed in his famous Bristol Project several children for more than ten years and compared their language development and learning behaviour in two contexts: school and families. Interesting differences have been found. On the one hand children are more initiative and more curious in the family context. On the other hand they loose more and more initiatives through school experiences. The concepts of learner autonomy and teacher autonomy and consequences for teacher training will be discussed in the context of these findings.
Dialektik
(2018)
Was 'Dialektik' nun genau sei, darüber gibt es immer noch sehr verschiedene und auch einander ausschließende Auffassungen. Vor allem auch darüber, ob es eine Dialektik gebe oder geben könne, die sich noch besonders durch das Attribut 'materialistisch' empfehlen würde. Je näher wir hinsehen, desto mehr entschwindet uns der Begriff, der einmal so viele Gewissheiten trug. Vielleicht liegt das auch schon daran, dass sich im Begriff der Dialektik viele Bedeutungsdimensionen gleichsam sedimentiert haben; er trägt schwer an seiner Geschichte und kann sich gerade deshalb immer wieder von einseitigen Fixierungen zurückziehen.
The paper focuses on experience gained at the university of Hildesheim (Germany) where a modular course programme has been introduced which concentrates on less frequently learnt European languages, such as Dutch, Danish, Portuguese and Italian, putting into practice relevant results of research in the field of Contrastive Linguistics. The paper ends with a presentation of the outline of a Turkish reading course for German learners, raising the question to what extent experience gained by comparing and teaching Indo-European languages can be applied to fundamentally different languages like German and Turkish.
In my paper, I show that the so-called German right dislocation actually comprises two distinct constructions, which I label 'right dislocation proper' and 'afterthought'. These differ in their prosodic and syntactic properties, as well as in their discourse functions. The paper is primarily concerned with the right dislocation proper (RD). I present a semantic analysis of RD based on the 'separate performative' account of Potts (2004, 2005) and Portner (forthc.). This analysis allows a description of the semantic contribution of RD to its host sentence, as well as explaining certain semantic constraints on the kind of NP in the RD construction.
Queertheorie bestimmt sich über Vorläufigkeit, die sich nicht als fixiertes System versteht, sondern als eines, das lediglich ein Instrumentarium zur Verfügung stellt, um die Logik der Spezifität von Machtbeziehungen und Machtkämpfen, etwa in literarischen Texten, zu analysieren. Insofern jeder kritischen Theorie die Verpflichtung aufgegeben ist, kritisch gegen sich selbst gewendet, auch die Möglichkeit zu denken, dass sie nicht immer da sein wird, gilt es, sich nicht im eigenen Moment einzurichten. So möchte ich im Sinne einer vorläufigen und zugleich einer strategischen Kanonisierung vorschlagen: Die germanistische Literaturwissenschaft sowohl mit postkolonialen Theorien als auch mit Gender- und Queertheorien momenthaft und gleichsam verschränkt zu perspektivieren, um dadurch neue Realisationen von Texten zum Entstehen zu bringen.
It is the aim of this paper to evaluate the various types of sentential complementation available in terms of complement control cross-linguistically. I will propose a lexical classification of control classes on the basis of the instantiated subordination patterns. I want to focus on an important distinction, namely that of structural vs. inherent control. Structural control is found with predicates that select a clausal complement whose structure requires argument identification and thus 'induces' control. Infinitival complements are prototypical cases for this kind of control because in most languages infinitival complements can only 'survive' in structures of control or raising. The interesting question is which predicates license structural control and which cross-linguistic differences emerge between potential licensors. Inherent control is found with predicates that require control readings independent of the instantiated structure of sentential complementation (e.g. a directive predicate such as zwingen 'force'). In addition, I will recapitulate and add arguments for the dual lexical-syntactic nature of complement control.
Der Beitrag widmet sich der Textsorte Videoblog und der Art und Weise, wie YouTuber in ihren Videoblogs und Texten ähnlicher Form mit ihren Rezipienten kommunizieren. Nach einer kurzen Vorstellung der Text-sorte Videoblog wird bei der Analyse von der Makrostruktur der Beiträge ausgegangen, wobei die typischen Eigenschaften der sprachlichen Elemente in den einzelnen Phasen der Beiträge betrachtet werden. Dazu wird ein Korpus von Videoblogs in der deutschen und in der tschechischen Sprache verwendet.
Due to the cultural and technological improvement in daily life, technological terms such as New Media Instruments gain more popularity among the foreign language didactics. In the media society the medium of instruction book is pushed for a function change. Pupils or students are continuously confronted outside of class with a variety of different media. Today we can clearly speak of new teaching and learning tools. The reciprocal effect of language policy and educational factors that shape the relationship between language and text books, lead in the case of German in a non-defined language policy. This constellation is also reflected in the design of textbooks. When you consider that textbooks are intimately linked with the education targets of a country and the practical learner expectations, then this seems today perhaps in a premature stage. On the one hand, the knowledge about the operation of related equipment and their applications, or the ability to be able to bring into use, are necessary and on the other hand, the technical competence of German as a foreign language is highly required. The attempt would enter with little skill in a personal and comprehensive online project fail for many Germanists even from the technical point of view and with some certainty. This begs the question: Is in fact the digital environment inevitable?
