Zaungäste oder Zaunkönige? - Von der Komplexität und gleichzeitigen Berechenbarkeit interkultureller Kommunikation
No full textDer von Ernst Apeltauer herausgegebene Band Interkulturelle Kommunikation. Deutschland - Skandinavien - Großbritannien ist der um einen Aufsatz von Sabine Riedel ergänzte Abdruck der sieben Beiträge einer Ringvorlesung zum Thema Interkulturelle Kommunikation, die im Sommersemester 2000 im Rahmen des grenzüberschreitenden Studienganges Kultur- und Sprachmittler (Universität Flensburg/Süddänische Universität) an der Universität Flensburg gehalten wurde. Das Themenspektrum reicht dabei von schwerpunktmäßig linguistisch ausgerichteten Beiträgen über pragmatische Fragestellungen bis hin zur Analyse grenzüberschreitender Strategien im Arbeits- und Wirtschaftsleben
The Gothic threshold of Sabine Baring-Gould : a study of the Gothic fiction of a Victorian squarson
No full textThis thesis is a study of the Gothic fiction of Sabine Baring-Gould (1834-
1924), with particular attention given to Baring-Gould’s roles as squire and parson. I
have chosen to analyze two of Baring-Gould’s Gothic works, the novel Mehalah
(1880) and the novella Margery of Quether (1884), both which allow a particularly
profitable examination of the influence of Baring-Gould’s roles on his fiction.
In studying these texts I apply my theory of Gothic fiction as a particularly
modern genre built upon a "Gothic threshold," a meeting point of extreme opposites
which ambivalently contrasts and merges the categories of the modern and the
medieval.
In the first chapter I describe how Baring-Gould’s unique Hegelian-influenced
Tractarian philosophy influenced his creation of the dialectical setting of Mehalah. I
argue that because of this influence Mehalah should be recognized as a significant
contribution to the literature of the Oxford Movement.
In the second chapter I argue that Mehalah’s historical setting in the time of
the French Revolution and the influence of Wuthering Heights reinforce Mehalah’s
use of the “Gothic threshold” structure and contribute to its theme of ambivalent
progress.
In the third chapter I discuss the influence of Baring-Gould’s sermon-writing
on Mehalah and consider connections between Baring-Gould’s role as parson and the
novel’s botched marriage theme.
In the final chapter I discuss Margery of Quether as an innovation in the
Gothic and vampire tradition as perhaps the only Gothic work that directly dramatizes
the Land Law debate and presents that debate as a "Gothic" contest. I argue that
Margery channels Baring-Gould’s tensions as a landowner.
In the conclusion I argue that Mehalah and Margery display Baring-Gould’s
technique of constructing miniature Gothic battles that relate to larger confrontations,
and that the ultimate terror presented in these works is the conclusion of the battle
between ancient and modern forces

De Lingua Sabina: A Reappraisal of the Sabine Glosses
No full textThis thesis offers a reappraisal of the Sabine glosses through the analysis of thirty-nine words, all glossed explicitly as Sabine in ancient sources ranging from the first century BCE to the sixth century CE.
The study of the Sabine glosses found in ancient grammarians and antiquarians goes back to the beginnings of Italic scholarship. Over time, two positions on the Sabine glosses have crystallised: (a) the Sabine glosses are evidence of a personal obsession of the Republican author Varro, in whose work many Sabine glosses survive, and (b) the Sabine glosses are true remnants of a single language of which little or no epigraphic evidence has survived.
By using the neogrammarian observation that sound-change is regular and exceptionless, it is possible to ascertain whether or not the Sabine glosses are likely to be from the same language. This thesis finds that the sound-changes undergone by the Sabine glosses show no broad agreement. The developments are characteristic of different languages – Latin, Faliscan and various Sabellic languages – and many changes are mutually exclusive. This consequently throws doubt on the assertion that the Sabine glosses are all taken from one language. Instead, the glosses should be seen as part of a discourse of the relationships between Romans, Sabines and Sabellic-speaking peoples.
During the Republic, Sabines were central to Roman myth, historiography and political rhetoric. As the Sabines were a distinct people in the Roman foundation myths, but were largely Romanised in the Republican present, they became a convenient bridge between Rome and the Sabellic-speaking peoples of Central and Southern Italy, to whom Greek and Roman writers ascribed myths tracing origin back to the Sabines. This continued into the Empire, when emperors such as Claudius and Vespasian utilised their (supposed) Sabine heritage to gain ideological capital. In light of this, the phenomenon of Sabine glosses cannot be seen as one man’s interest, but as a means of reflecting on Rome’s relations with Sabellic-speaking Italy
KOMPARASI SEJARAH DAN ANALISIS TEKS SABINE SCHMIDTKE
No full textThis study looks at the numerous studies of Islamic theology conducted by Western nations since the early nineteenth century. They studied Muslim thinkers' writings and brought them to the West. Initially, the study of the manuscript was general in nature, but later thinkers narrowed it down to a specific study. Sabine Schmidtke is a modern Orientalist who specializes in manuscripts of Islamic theology, particularly Mu'tazilah theology. In this study, the author employs the library research method to examine Sabine Schmidtke's books and journals on the relationship between Jewish Karaites, Shia theology and Mu'tazilah theology. Based on the author's research, Sabine's comparative historical and textual studies have revealed that the Shia school of thought and the Jewish Karaites sect have adopted Mu'tazilah thought, specifically the thought of Abu al-Husayn al-Basri. They not only adopted ideas, but they also copied and preserved writings found in Yemen in the form of manuscripts.
Keywords: Sabine Schmidtke, Jewish Karaites, Mu'tazilah

Eigenverantwortlicher Lehrer oder "code monkey"? Fremdsprachenlernen mit dem PC
No full textMario Oesterreicher führt als Hauptziele seiner Dissertation mit dem Titel Gesprochenes und geschriebenes Englisch im computergestützten Fremdsprachenerwerb drei, wie er es nennt, "Versuche" an: den einer Darstellung der PC-Verwendbarkeit im Fremdsprachenunterricht, den einer Antwort auf die Frage nach der Lehrnorm und den einer Darstellung der Möglichkeiten des PC-Einsatzes in "einer differenzierten Fremdsprachenlehre" (S. 2). Dabei wagt er sich auf mehreren Ebenen an einen ebenso mutigen wie breiten Spagat zwischen Linguistik und Sprachdidaktik. Neben linguistischen Beschreibungen sprechsprachlicher Phänomene sollen didaktische Handreichungen für die konkrete Unterrichtssituation ebenso ihren Platz finden wie Informationen zum Einsatz von PCs in der Korpuslinguistik oder Lehrwerkerstellung
