Jack Alive / Martin Dead : The Location of the "Author" in Jack London\u27s Martin Eden
This essay is an attempt to read Martin Eden, Jack Londonʼs autobiographical novel, in terms of the inextricable relationship between the author and the protagonist. Critics have often taken the unbalanced plot and the lack of ironic distance between narrator and character in Martin Eden as the technical weakness of London, but this paper argues that the achievement of this novel owes a great deal to the attachment of London to Martin. The unbalanced structure is a necessary product of the severe struggle of the author to kill his romantic alter ego. // Martin, who aspires to win Ruth Morse, tries to cross class boundaries by making a career of a writer. Even after realizing the emptiness of Ruth, who turns out to be nothing but a typical figure of the bourgeoisie, he somehow persists in loving her. The notion underlying here is that, for Martin, love, career and art are fundamentally inseparable. He objects to the aestheteʼs view of Brissenden on account of his separation of art from career. Martinʼs identity and life consist only in the triunity of love/career/art; the alternative is the repudiation of life. Thus, the unnatural delay of his disappointment in love can be regarded as Londonʼs strategy to set the suicide of Martin as the necessary consequence of the story. // By finishing the story and killing Martin, London finally detaches himself from Martin, reconstructs his self, and, unlike Martin, survives as a professional writer. In this sense, Martin Eden is a story about “writerʼs self-reconstruction.

Populismus in der digitalen Mediendemokratie
Welche Rolle politische Inhalte („linke“ oder „rechte“) in populistischen Bewegungen und Parteien eigentlich spielen, ist zwar, wie der Populismusbegriff selbst, von jeher Gegenstand wissenschaftlicher Auseinandersetzungen. Dass Populismus vor allem auch mit der Art und Weise der politischen Artikulation zu tun hat, wird nur von wenigen bestritten.
Daher liegt es für die AutorInnen des 86. OBST-Heftes auf der Hand, Populismus mit sprachwissenschaftlichen und diskursanalytischen Mitteln zu untersuchen, um die Spezifika dieser Artikulationsweise zu beschreiben und zu erklären. In diesem Zusammenhang ist unter anderem der Frage nachzugehen, in welcher Beziehung der Populismus zu den Medien steht. Diese Frage drängt sich umso mehr auf, als der Populismus immer – also gegenwärtig ebenso wie zu früheren Zeiten – ein besonderes Naheverhältnis zu den jeweils modernen Massenmedien zu haben scheint.
Die ersten Beiträge des Bandes beginnen mit der Betrachtung des deutschen und deutschsprachigen Populismus und gehen zur Analyse des italienischen, britischen und norwegischen Populismus über. Die Vielfalt populistischer Rhetorik in ihrer medialen Performanz wird damit gut sichtbar, auch wenn noch zahlreiche weitere Länder in vergleichende Analysen einbezogen werden könnten und – in zukünftiger Forschung – auch einbezogen werden sollten.

Experiences Using Large Scale Video Walls for Distance Education
We describe our experiences building and using the Rutgers Videowall, a low-cost telepresence system that has been used teaching 15 courses and colloquia. By relaxing typical spatial telepresence features, such as background continuity, we greatly reduced costs and gained flexibility in the rooms it could be deployed in. The lower costs and room flexibility enabled academic departments to use the wall, in contrast to traditional telepresence systems which remained inaccessible. We found that the Videowall’s spatial distortions did not have a significant impact on useability, as our initial survey results show that students had an overall positive experience.Technical report DCS-tr-72
