Kunigunda of Galicia, the second wife of the Bohemian King Otokar II and later the second wife of the powerful nobleman Záviš of Falkenstein, suffers from a very poor reputation due to her depiction in medieval chronicles, especially the Styrian Rhymed Chronicle written by Ottokar aus der Gaal. Her image as a domineering and morally dubious figure is also echoed in Franz Grillparzer's play "König Ottokars Glück und Ende", which draws partly on the Styrian chronicle as source material. This study attempts to answer the question of what role Kunigunda plays in Grillparzer's drama, and whether she genuinely deserves to be known as a "whore" – a designation which was applied to her immediately after the play's premiere. Grillparzer's version of Kunigunda is also compared with her depiction in the tragedy "Král Přemysl Otakar Druhý" by František Zavřel.
The unique situation in which job seekers and employers find themselves results in the necessity to formulate and accept refusal letters. Employers frequently express their emotions in such letters. They are, however, in the form of clichés which apparently do not contain any genuine emotions. The subject of this analysis is genuine German refusal letters collected in the years between 2000 and 2012. Our objective is to indicate the types of emotions verbalized in the analyzed text type and to present the linguistic means utilized to express those emotions.
The article focuses on two objectives. First it addresses current trends in the lexical development of the German language. This investigation is based on changes within the section Fernsehabend to Fernsehzuschauerin in the "Duden – Deutsches Universalwörterbuch" between 1996 and 2011. Secondly, on the basis of the given section, the article examines to what extent this dictionary reflects current vocabulary.

Ziel des vorliegenden Artikels ist die Analyse von Motivationsschreiben, einer Textsorte, die bei der Bewerbung um einen Masterstudienplatz oder um ein Stipendium häufig eingereicht werden muss. Anhand eines Korpus von 30 Motivationsschreiben, welche im Rahmen der Masterarbeit von November 2013 bis Mai 2014 gesammelt wurden, sollen die Relevanz, der Kommunikationskontext und die Textfunktionen der offenen Textsorte aufgezeigt werden.
O objetivo principal deste artigo é apresentar uma visão geral dos resultados obtidos em uma pesquisa empírica envolvendo aprendizes adultos de alemão como língua estrangeira com conhecimentos prévios de inglês. O foco deste artigo recai sobre os processos envolvidos no ensino/aprendizagem de terceiras línguas, levando-se em consideração que a língua alemã é comumente aprendida como uma segunda língua estrangeira após o inglês. Os principais questionamentos da pesquisa estão baseados em processos de transferência positiva, bem como na interferência linguística observada em um grupo de 50 aprendizes de alemão dos níveis A1 a B1 do Quadro Europeu Comum de Referência para as Línguas. Ao que concerne a relação entre as línguas alemã e inglesa, a afirmação de que o inglês exerce um papel importante na aprendizagem de alemão pôde ser confirmada, sendo o parentesco etimológico entre as duas línguas um dos mais importantes fatores para se determinar a ocorrência de influência interlinguística. Por outro lado, a interferência linguística resultante da coexistência de ambas as línguas demanda o desenvolvimento de uma didática do plurilinguismo que compreenda métodos alternativos para o ensino/aprendizagem de alemão como segunda língua estrangeira no Brasil.
"Great technology, football and ..." : Malaysian language learners' stereotypes about Germany
(2014)
This study focuses on stereotypes about Germany, its culture and people, held by learners of German in a big public university in Malaysia. It examines not only the stereotypical representations of the target language country but also assesses its favourability and salience, which has not been done previously. The findings revealed that the students' stereotypes about Germany were varied and diverse. Also, they were overwhelmingly positive. The top three salient categories of images about Germany were related to technology, famous personalities – for the most part football players and scientists – and cars. The findings also indicated that very few references had been made to German culture and to its great cultural figures. The results of the present study suggest that students could benefit from a wider and deeper exposure to German culture in the language classroom.
Der Aufsatz untersucht das syntaktische Verhalten nicht-satzförmiger Adverbialia im Deutschen und im brasilianischen Portugiesisch in vergleichender Perspektive. Behandelt werden Adverbialia aus sechs Klassen, deren semantische Funktionen von der Sachverhaltsbeschreibung bis zur Beschreibung von Handlungsabsichten des Sprechers reichen. Insgesamt zeigen sich große Ähnlichkeiten zwischen den Vergleichssprachen. Im Deutschen scheint eine etwas stärkere Tendenz zu bestehen, Adverbialia syntaktisch zu integrieren, während es im Portugiesischen mehr Möglichkeiten gibt, sie desintegriert zu verwenden.
Este artigo recapitula as traduções de Wilhelm Busch publicadas no Brasil e aponta que determinadas circunstâncias de publicação levaram a uma recepção unilateral de sua obra exclusivamente como literatura infantil nesse país. Entre outras estratégias que poderiam estender para uma faixa etária adulta o público leitor da poesia humorística buschiana, propõe-se que o Knittelvers seja traduzido para o português como decassílabo iâmbico. Uma tradução anotada do poema "Hänsel und Gretel" nesse padrão métrico-acentual testa em que medida a escolha consciente de um ritmo e o aproveitamento de associações culturais desencadeadas por ele podem destacar o efeito irônico desse pseudoconto-de-fada.
