In German, non-finite forms of verbs that are traditionally labelled as "nominalized infinitives", but are better categorized as gerunds, can show very unusual features. Although they carry a definitive article and therefore clearly seem to belong to the class of nouns, they still govern objects and adverbials in exactly the same way the verb does. It is therefore argued that in spite of the determiners, these forms are essentially verbal in nature. The syntactic functions they fulfil can be anything from subject or object to adverbial or attributive modifier, i. e. functions that are usually fulfilled by subordinate clauses. Since this is the same kind of behavior that converbs in languages like Turkish show, this leads to the suggestion that they can indeed be considered as a functionally similar to converbs.
This poetry anthology offers a feast and face of poetry as it currently is in Uganda. It is all encompassing and presents a variety of writers ranging from seasoned voices to new ones of great promise. The voices are adventurous, reflective, provocative and even sassy. The poets explore with passion diverse themes from the private to the public realm reassuring the reader that poetry is about everything and is perhaps everything. The pages of this anthology pulsate with rhythmic variations that give unexpected pleasure and provoke the reader to be exceptionally alert. This is a welcome and priceless addition to Uganda Poetry Anthology 2000.
We test two hypotheses, based on sexual selection theory, about gender differences in costly social interactions. Differential selectivity states that women invest less than men in interactions with new individuals. Differential opportunism states that women’s investment in social interactions is less responsive to information about the interaction’s payoffs. The hypotheses imply that women’s social networks are more stable and path dependent and composed of a greater proportion of strong relative to weak links. During their introductory week, we let new university students play an experimental trust game, first with one anonymous partner, then with the same and a new partner. Consistent with our hypotheses, we find that women invest less than men in new partners and that their investments are only half as responsive to information about the likely returns to the investment. Moreover, subsequent formation of students’ real social networks is consistent with the experimental results: being randomly assigned to the same introductory group has a much larger positive effect on women’s likelihood of reporting a subsequent friendship.
Lässt sich eine dominierende Zeitvorstellung für unsere Epoche ausmachen? Ist die moderne Unruhe eine neue Unruhe? Solche Fragen gehören zu den zentralen Themen von Christoph Cornelißen, Professor für Neueste Geschichte an der Goethe-Universität, dessen Forschungsschwerpunkte Historiografie-Geschichte und die Geschichte der Erinnerungskulturen einschließen.
Laut jüdischem Kalender entstand die Welt vor genau 5778 Jahren, nach der Bibel vor 6021 Jahren. Doch als Forscher begannen, auf und in der Erde selbst nach Spuren ihres Alters zu suchen, mussten sie die Zahl immer weiter nach oben korrigieren. Nach heutigen Datierungsmethoden ist unser Planet zwischen 4,5 und 4,6 Milliarden Jahre alt.
