Jean-Etienne Liotard und Karoline Luise von Baden: Eine Geschichte der Pastelle
Das Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam beherbergt nach dem Musée d’Art et d’Histoire in Genf die zweitgrößte Sammlung von Pastellgemälden von Jean-Etienne Liotard (1702-1789). Im Hinblick auf die Wiedereröffnung des Museums 2013 wurde im Jahr 2007 ein großes Restaurierungs- und Forschungsprojekt zu den Pastellen initiiert. Die 23 Werke Liotards wurden aus dem Rahmen genommen und dokumentiert; 13 von ihnen wurden restauriert. Um die von Liotard verwendeten Techniken zu rekonstruieren, wurden sowohl Materialproben als auch schriftliche Quellen herangezogen. Neben seinem Traité des principes et règles de la peinture (1781) bilden die erhaltenen Unterlagen seiner einzigen Schülerin in der Pastellmalerei, Karoline Luise von Baden (1723-1783), einen einmaligen und unmittelbaren Beleg für Liotards Praxis. Die Untersuchung der Beziehung zwischen dem Schweizer Künstler und seiner Schülerin führte zur Wiederentdeckung einer Pastellkreidenprobe des Herstellers Bernard-Augustin Stoupan (1701-1775) Zusammenhang mit den technischen Beobachtungen stehen, die an Liotards Pastellen gemacht wurden. Eine eingehende Untersuchung von Liotards Pastelltechniken im Allgemeinen wurde bereits im Jahr 2014 veröffentlicht.Aerospace Structures and MaterialsAerospace Engineerin
Literatur und Emanzipation von Frauen in der Frühromantik : Bettine von Arnim und Karoline von Günderrode
Early German Romanticism is a period associated in literary analysis with the emancipation of women. Two women writers of the time. Bettine von Arnim and Karoline von Günderrode take up the Romantic view of literature as an emancipating medium. The thesis refers to Romanticism to define the concepts of feminity, literature and emancipation within their historical context. Romanticism attempts a dialogue between the self and its other, and ultimately re-defines woman as the other of the author male. Friedrich Schlegel's novel Lucinde is analysed as a paradigmatic example of the identification of the self through the medium of literature. The writings of Bettine and Karoline have been analysed as early examples of a feminist literary tradition from the standpoint of feminist theory located in the context of modern women's movements. By way of contrast to Romantic literary theory, this feminist literary theory is expressed as a perceived continuity of women's experience. The concept of self-realisation of women authors through literature is examined from the standpoint of understanding literary texts as objectification of self. French feminist criticism is employed to analyse the relation of feminity to systems of representations from the perspective of modern textual practice. It is argued that Bettine's novel is structured around the literary correspondence between herself and Karoline in which they were able to create a "free-space" (Freiraum) in order to discuss their alienation from society. In realising Romanticism's concept of a dialogue. Bettine achieves a new concept of authorship which allows a representation of female desire, as defined by French theory, through a reflection in Karoline as her other. While both women enjoy the advantage of education. Bettine rejects this as an example of male norms. Karoline imitates these norms to emancipate herself. Karoline identifies with the dominant aesthetic norms in her poetry in an attempt at identification. Her letters, on the other hand, reflect a modern experience of discontinuity of self, which she explains as a result of the absence of social practice in the society of her time and the limitations imposed on her as a woman. In the thesis, it is concluded that Karoline's production is difficult to reconcile with either of the above literary theories. Neither Karoline's nor Bettine's literature can be seen as representative of a unified female subject. The medium of literature enables the development of an aesthetic subjectivity, which, it is argued, can be applied to women-specific" (frauenspezifisch) criticism
Constructional change in North American Danish transitional verbs: The case of var født/konfirmeret/gift
This paper focuses on structural changes in Danish as an immigrant minority language in North America, i.e., language change under the conditions of language contact. Two corpora, the Corpus of North American Danish and the LANCHART corpus (both University of Copenhagen), provide data for a contrastive analysis of auxiliary choice in three verb phrases with transitional biographical verbs (født 'born', konfirmeret 'confirmed' and gift 'married') in North American Danish and modern spoken Danish. Taking a Construction Grammar approach, the author argues that the changes in auxiliary choice, namely the use of var 'was' instead of blev 'became', are the result of cross-linguistic analogy building by the bilingual speakers of North American Danish. The analogical leveling of North American Danish with English leads to constructional change in form and function as well as in frequency and prototype
A duplicação de sujeito no português brasileiro
O objetivo desta dissertação é compreender como a construção com sintagma nominal sujeito adjacente ao pronome correferente é usada em português brasileiro. Em português brasileiro, a literatura acerca dessa construção tem o seu princípio em Pontes (1987), que, apoiada em Ross (1967), para o inglês, a considera como deslocamento à esquerda de sujeito, uma construção de tópico-comentário caracterizada por admitir a presença de um pronome-cópia e favorecer a pausa entre sintagma inicial e o pronome. Outros autores também seguem a mesma linha de Pontes (cf. Callou et al., 2002[1993]; Duarte, 1995; 2000; Britto, 1998; Moraes e Orsini, 2003; Duarte e Soares da Silva, 2016), porém há alguns que diferenciam as construções com deslocamento à esquerda de sujeito das construções com redobro de sujeito (cf. Costa, Duarte e Silva, 2004; Quarezemin, 2018; 2019) pautados especialmente na ausência de ruptura prosódica entre o sintagma sujeito e o pronome. Neste trabalho, investigamos as ocorrências da construção com sintagma nominal seguido imediatamente pelo pronome correferente encontradas em uma amostra de corpus de língua falada pelos aspectos prosódicos (presença ou ausência de pausa entre o sintagma nominal e o pronome), sintáticos e informacionais/discursivos. Os resultados das análises dos dados nos mostram que a construção é frequente e que, contrariando a literatura, a maioria das ocorrências não registra pausa entre o sintagma sujeito e o pronome. Ao contrapor as construções com pausa prosódica com as sem pausa, descobrimos que os referentes destas podem veicular informação nova e ser referentes não ativados no contexto discursivo, enquanto os referentes daquelas não podem. Diante disso, as construções com pausa se comportam como um deslocamento à esquerda de sujeito, ao passo que as sem pausa são inovadoras, por não ter obrigatoriamente propriedades de tópico, e precisam ser consideradas como uma possibilidade de manifestação do sujeito no português brasileiro atual, a duplicação de sujeito via pronome.The goal of this dissertation is to investigate how the construction with subject noun phrase adjacent to the co-referent pronoun is used in Brazilian Portuguese. In Brazilian Portuguese, the pioneering work was Pontes (1987), who, supported by Ross (1967), for English, considers this kind of construction to be a left dislocation of subject, a topic-commentary construction characterized by admitting the presence of a copy-pronoun and by favoring the pause between the initial phrase and the pronoun. Other authors also follow the same line as Pontes (cf. Callou et al., 2002[1993]; Duarte, 1995; 2000; Britto, 1998; Moraes and Orsini, 2003; Duarte and Soares da Silva, 2016), but some differentiate constructions with left dislocation of subject from constructions with double subject (cf. Costa, Duarte and Silva, 2004; Quarezemin, 2018; 2019) based especially on the absence of a prosodic pause between the subject phrase and the pronoun. In this work, we investigate the occurrences of the construction with noun phrase followed immediately by the co-referent pronoun found in a sample of spoken language corpus. We focus on prosodic (presence or absence of pause between noun phrase and pronoun), syntactic and informational/discursive aspects. The results of data analysis show us that construction is frequent and that, contrary to the literature, most occurrences do not register a pause between the subject phrase and the pronoun. By contrasting the constructions with the prosodic pause with those without a pause, we found that the first can convey new information, while the latter cannot. Therefore, constructions without pause are innovative, as they do not necessarily have topic properties, and need to be considered as a possibility of manifestation of the subject in current Brazilian Portuguese, the subject duplication via pronoun
A opcionalidade entre pronome nulo e pronome lexical para leitura correferente em português brasileiro
It is known that Brazilian Portuguese is not a categorical language when it comes to the pro-drop parameter (CHOMSKY, 1981). When the subject of the subordinate is corresponding to the subject of the main clause, it will be null in a pro-drop language and pronominal in a non-pro-drop language. According to the literature, in Brazilian Portuguese there is the option of using either null or pronominal subject in these cases, although there are indications that the null will be interpreted as corresponding to the main subject, while the pronominal is always related to any other referent, just as it happens in Portuguese European. The problem, then, is to find out why Brazilian Portuguese retains two forms to mean the same thing and whether there is any tendency on the interpretation of each construction. Through a questionnaire, it was possible to identify that Brazilian Portuguese really preserves both forms with a tenuous interpretive preference.É sabido que o português brasileiro não é uma língua categórica quando o assunto é o parâmetro pro-drop (CHOMSKY, 1981). Quando o sujeito da subordinada substantiva objetiva direta é correspondente ao sujeito da oração principal, será nulo em uma língua pro-drop e pronominal em uma língua não pro-drop. Segundo a literatura (BARBOSA; DUARTE; KATO, 2005; HOLMBERG; NAYUDU; SHEEHAN, 2009; WIDERA; KAISER, 2019), em português brasileiro, há a opcionalidade de utilizar sujeito nulo ou pronominal nesses casos, embora haja indícios de que o nulo será interpretado como correspondente ao sujeito da principal, enquanto o pronominal será relacionado a qualquer outro referente, assim como acontece em português europeu. O problema, então, é descobrir por que o português brasileiro conserva duas formas para “expressar a mesma situação” e se existe alguma tendência de interpretação. Por meio de um questionário, foi possível identificar que o português brasileiro realmente conserva as duas formas com um tênue direcionamento interpretativo: sujeito nulo para leitura correferente ao sujeito mais próximo e sujeito pronominal quando correferente a constituintes/sintagmas que não o sujeito

Business as usual?: the changing structure of “the Italian company” during their Scandinavian tour, 1800–1802
This article examines and discusses the changes made to “the Italian company” during their Scandinavian tour of 1800 to 1802, changes regarding leadership, membership and repertoire. Prior to 1800, the peripatetic company had performed all over Europe under the direction of Mr Casorti. While in Scandinavia, the company had several local directors. The changes in leadership were a legal necessity, in order to gain access to a Scandinavian entertainment market otherwise closed to foreigners. While in Scandinavia the company offered their usual mix of theatrical performances and artistic feats. In Sweden and Norway however, their programme expanded. The changes in the repertoire were connected with changes in membership, brought about by marriages, births and business partnerships. Whereas changes in leadership constituted an exception to the norm for the company, the author argues that changes to membership and consequentially repertoire were business as usual. Ellen Karoline Gjervan is Associate Professor at Queen Maud University College in Trondheim, Norway. She received her PhD in Theatre Studies at the University of Bergen in 2010. She has published on Henrik Ibsen’s theatrical career, on dramaturgy, and on political theatre and stagecraft of the long eighteenth century
