The political, the urban, and the cosmopolitan : the 1970s generation in Romanian-German poetry
(2010)
This study is an introduction to the body of work produced by the German poets who were born during or after World War II in Romania and whose almost simultaneous debut lies in the relatively liberal period 1965 – 1971. Helped onto the Romanian-German literary scene by a propitious environment and informed by the socialist ideology they were born “into,” the poets born between 1942 and 1955 formed a remarkable generation unit which sought to significantly renew German-language literature in Romania. Rejecting identification with the insulary Romanian-German communities, the young poets strove to create a socially and politically relevant verse expressing an urban and cosmopolitan attitude. The growing nationalist rhetoric and isolationist stance of Romania's regime and the material and psychological hardships endured by its population through the 1970s and 80s forced the generation to revise its incipient enthusiasm for Romanian socialism. Increasingly, the poets' work came to depict the threatened existence of the German minority and the harsh general living conditions in Romania and to provide an alternative to the absurd official proclamations of a “golden age” under Ceauşescu, despite the poetry's growing reliance on obscuring literary techniques. The emigration of most of the generation members in the mid to late 1980s brought about the eventual unravelling of the generation unit and marks the end of my study. By following the evolution of three themes – social and political engagement, the German minority, and the urban environment – which define the poets as a generation throughout their literary careers in Romania, the analysis illuminates not only the generation's development from identification with Romanian socialism and rejection of the German minority to criticism of the country's policies and a renewed interest in the fate of the German community but also the changing possibilities and limits of literary expression under communism. In addition to providing an introduction to the body of work created by the 1970s generation in Romania, the study also expands the understanding of German literature in the 20th century by providing new material on literature written under totalitarianism and of intercultural German literature.
Sich mit Christa Wolf auf einen „Spaziergang durch ein Stück deutscher Künstlerlandschaft der letzten Jahrzehnte“ zu verabreden heißt, die Künstlerin von einer neuen, bisher unbekannten Seite kennenzulernen.
Als Autorin ist sie keine Unbekannte. Ihr Werk erfuhr internationale Anerkennung und eine umfassende Rezeption, was sich in zahlreichen Monographien und Einzeluntersuchungen niederschlug. In der Akademie der Künste in Berlin lagern nach Schenkungen von Gerhard Wolf und des Luchterhand Literaturverlags ungefähr 1000 Bände Archivmaterial mit Werkmanuskripten aller Schaffensperioden sowie zugehörige Materialien und Druckschriften, Privat- und Geschäftskorrespondenz sowie zahlreiche Leserbriefe und Rezensionen. Die Bibliothek der Akademie beinhaltet die gesamte Primär- und Sekundärliteratur sowie zahlreiche weitere Dokumente.2 So sind hier „Zeugnisse gelebten Lebens, künstlerischer Entwicklungen, menschlicher Beziehungen bewahrt, individuelle und Zeitgeschichte eingefangen“...
„Frauenlieder gehören zu den ältesten poetischen Zeugnissen, welche in die schriftliche Überlieferung der volkssprachlichen Dichtung im Mittelalter eingegangen sind, und schon allein aus diesem Grunde kommt ihnen eine herausragende kultur- und literarhistorische Bedeutung zu.“
Für die mittelalterlichen Lieder mit weiblichem lyrischem Ich finden sich diverse Definitionen die je nach Schwerpunkt und Sichtweise einen unterschiedlich großen Korpus an Liedern als Frauenlieder deklarieren. Für diese Arbeit habe ich versucht eine Definition zu finden, die minimal einschränkend ist und dabei keine wertenden und ästhetischen Kriterien ansetzt, die aus einem heutigen Verständnis geprägt sind. Dementsprechend basiert diese Arbeit auf der Minimaldefintion eines Frauenliedes nach Ingrid Kasten: „Es sind Lieder, deren lyrisches Subjekt eine Frau ist.“
Da explizit bei Ingrid Kasten von einem lyrischen Subjekt die Rede ist, also von der Person, die das Lied trägt, sind Gattungen wie das Tagelied oder die Pastourelle ausgeschlossen, da sie zwar weibliche Redeanteile stellen, diese allerdings keine eigenständige Meinung wiedergeben, sondern nur im Kontext des Liedes einen Dialog herstellen. Hierzu Angelica Rieger: „Zu der gattungsbedingt stark eingeschränkten Rollen der Frau in der pastorela kommt die Tatsache, daß die narrative Grundstruktur der Gattung der Frauenstimme nur im Zitat Raum läßt. Beides verhindert die Entwicklung eines selbstständigen weiblichen lyrischen Ichs innerhalb der Grenzen der Gattung. […] In jedem Fall beschränkt sich [bei der alba] die «voix féminine» auf die von der Gattung diktierte Rollenverteilung zwischen domna, amic und gaita.“
Um nun noch den Begriff der Gattung zu definieren, greife ich auf die allgemeine Definition des Duden zurück, dieser definiert Gattung als „Gesamtheit von [Arten von] Dingen, Einzelwesen, Formen, die in wesentlichen Eigenschaften übereinstimmen.“
Somit soll diese Arbeit klären, inwiefern die Frauenlieder der Troubadoure, der Trouvères, der Minnesänger und der galicisch-portugiesischen Troubadoure unter dem Gattungsbegriff „Frauenlied“ vereint werden können oder ob sich so viele verschiedene Formen von Liedern mit weiblichem lyrischen Subjekt finden lassen, dass lediglich von einem Überbegriff die Rede sein kann.
Previous studies suggest that the application of Controlled Language (CL) rules can significantly improve the readability, consistency, and machine-translatability of source text. One of the justifications for the application of CL rules is that they can have a similar impact on several target languages by reducing the post-editing effort required to bring Machine Translation (Ml’) output to acceptable quality. In certain situations, however, post-editing services may not always be a viable solution. Web-based information is often expected to be made available in real-time to ensure that its access is not restricted to certain users based on their locale. Uncertainties remain with regard to the actual usefulness of MT output for such users, as no empirical study has examined the impact of CL rules on the usefulness, comprehensibility, and acceptability of MT technical documents from a Web user's perspective. In this study, a two-phase approach is used to determine whether Controlled English rules can have a significant impact on these three variables. First, individual CL rules are evaluated within an experimental environment, which is loosely based on a test suite.Two documents are then published and subject to a randomised evaluation within the framework of an online experiment using a customer satisfaction questionnaire. The findings indicate that a limited number of CL rules have a similar impact on the comprehensibility of French and German output at the segment level. The results of the online experiment show that the application of certain CL rules has the potential to significantly improve the comprehensibility of German MT technical documentation. Our findings also show that the introduction of CL rules did not lead to any significant improvement of the comprehensibility, usefulness, and acceptability of French MT technical documentation.
The research reported in this thesis examines two main questions: firstly, which dictionary type, bilingual or monolingual, is most effective for intermediate learners of German for reading comprehension, and secondly, which features make monolingual dictionary definitions effective for these learners. These questions divide the thesis into two parts. The first part compares the effectiveness of the bilingual versus the monolingual dictionary, and the second part compares two different monolingual definition styles.
The research was originally motivated by the observation that Hong Kong Chinese intermediate learners of German prefer to use a German-English bilingual dictionary. Since the translations are presented in the learners' second language, the effectiveness of this bilingual dictionary is doubtful. On the other hand, the learners are reluctant to use the monolingual dictionary, recommended to them by their language teachers. Three investigations were conducted in order to gain more detailed knowledge about the learners' dictionary preference, and the effectiveness of the two dictionary types. The learners' dictionary preference was investigated by means of a survey of ninety-eight foreign language students. The effectiveness of the bilingual and monolingual dictionary for reading comprehension and incidental vocabulary learning was first measured experimentally. The think-aloud method was then used in order to discover factors which determine the effectiveness of the two dictionary types.
The results of the experiment revealed that the German-English bilingual dictionary was not significantly more effective for the learners than the monolingual dictionary. The only monolingual dictionary available for German at that time, however, is linguistically too difficult for this proficiency level. Because of these findings, the research turned to monolingual dictionary definitions with the aim of identifying features that make them accessible to intermediate learners. Based on findings from the first think-aloud study, and principles promoted as user-friendly in the lexicographic literature, new definitions were developed for the target words in the research. These new definitions were compared with those in the existing dictionary. A second think-aloud study was conducted in order to generate hypotheses about individual definition features. These hypotheses were then tested in the second experiment, which was conducted with eighty-six learners of German in Shanghai.
The investigations reveal several features that determine the effectiveness of monolingual definitions for intermediate learners. The findings have theoretical and pedagogical implications. In the theoretical field, some lexicographic principles were recommended that are, unlike previous principles, based on empirical insights into user needs. In the pedagogical field, the research findings provide an empirical basis for the evaluation and recommendation of suitable dictionaries to intermediate learners.
A model of dictionary effectiveness is proposed. This model could help to assess the effectiveness of different information categories in dictionaries for different proficiency levels and different activity contexts. It could also provide lexicographic principles for the design of dictionaries. This research contributes one component to the proposed model: criteria for the effectiveness of definition features for intermediate learners in the activity context of reading.
Towards a German grammar programme for post-leaving certificate students at Dublin City University
(1999)
With the introduction of the communicative method of language learning, overall standards of grammatical competence and performance among Irish second level students would appear to have been significantly reduced. As a consequence, learners who continue to study a given language at third level apparently no longer possess the knowledge which, under the grammar-translation methodology, further education institutions were able to build upon. This thesis examines the basis for the above perceptions, investigates the role of formal grammar instruction in the second language acquisition process and reports on a programme which was developed at Dublin City University (DCU) in order to ease, for Irish university students of German, the transition from a primarily memory-based approach to language acquisition to the analytical approach which is still being considered crucial to a university student's linguistic education. While the research was undertaken in response to locally existing difficulties, it may also be considered as a case study of more general interest, and as such serve as an exemplar to German departments in other universities as well as to other foreign language departments both within DCU or outside. The aim of the programme under investigation was to ease the transition on a socio-affective, cognitive and metacognitive level without lowering overall proficiency expectations and standards. Primary research was conducted among secondary school teachers, post-Leaving Certificate students on entry into DCU and among third level lecturers. The purpose of this research was to identify and define the programme’s content and progression. To this effect, the German junior and senior cycle syllabi at second level were also taken into consideration. The subsequent German grammar programme was implemented at DCU in the academic year 1996/7. While the programme would appear to have been judged favourably regarding some affective and cognitive-motivational aspects, results show mixed success rates for the other two factors under investigation, cognitive-analytical and metacognitive skills. Thus, some degree courses and some language combinations clearly benefited more from the programme than others. One of the conclusions drawn from this research suggests that unless certain changes are introduced prior to students’ entry into third level, university graduates are likely to remain well below the standards of accuracy and overall proficiency which were previously achieved.
Richard Wagner hatte ein gebrochenes Verhältnis zum Geld: Er benötigte viel, hatte aber meist so wenig, dass er auf Pump leben musste. Nicht selten war er auf der Flucht vor seinen Gläubigern. Die Erfindung des Geldes hielt er für einen Sündenfall, das Eigentum für die Wurzel allen Übels. Im »Ring des Nibelungen « spiegelt er im Mythos vom Fluch des Goldes die moderne Erfahrung der Macht des Geldes.
Grenzenloser Reichtum und schier unerschöpfliche Geldquellen – diese Träume sind der Stoff, aus dem unzählige Geschichten narratives Kapital schlagen. Der Mythos von König Midas oder die Comics mit Dagobert Duck gehören zu den prominentesten Vertretern solcher Erzählungen. Der Fortunatus hingegen, in dem ein Geld produzierender Zauberbeutel die Geschicke bestimmt, ist weitgehend in Vergessenheit geraten. Dabei kann gerade dieser Roman, der 1509 in Augsburg anonym veröffentlicht wurde, in doppelter Hinsicht als ein Pionier der Literaturgeschichte gelten.
