Rezension zu Tim Kallenborn (2019): Regionalsprachliche Syntax. Horizontal-vertikale Variation im Moselfränkischen. Stuttgart: Steiner. 448 S. (Zeitschrift für Dialektologie und Linguistik. Beihefte. 176)
No full textBei der vorliegenden Monografie handelt es sich um eine leicht überarbeitete Fassung von Tim
Kallenborns Dissertation, die an der Universität Wien bei Alexandra N. Lenz entstanden
ist. Nach April 2016 erschienene Publikationen und neuere Projekte konnten daher nicht mehr berücksichtigt werden. Kallenborn gelingt in seinem auch so verstandenen Pionierprojekt eine Synthese
der aktuellen Regionalsprachenforschung und der modernen Dialektsyntax zu einer – dringend
nötigen – regionalsprachlichen Syntax, zu der bis dahin lediglich vereinzelte Schnitte ins vertikale
Spektrum für bestimmte Phänomene existierten. Während die Regionalsprachenforschung
nicht nur auf die Basisdialekte, sondern das komplette vertikale Variationsspektrum fokussiert und die Dialektsyntax areale Strukturen bzw. Raumbildung in der Syntax erforscht, geht es dem Verfasser neben der Arealität syntaktischer Phänomene innerhalb des moselfränkischen Dialektverbandes insbesondere um eine systematische Untersuchung syntaktischer Variation entlang der Dialekt-Standard-Achse

Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
No full textThis study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)
Pronominale Partitivität: Arealität und Mikrovariation einer morphosyntaktischen Variable in den Varietäten des Deutschen
No full textThis thesis investigates the morphosyntax of pronominal partitive anaphors in Continental West Germanic, particularly in varieties of German (especially Hessian). It concentrates on the geolinguistic distribution, morphosyntactic variation and structural analysis of pronominal devices expressing an indefinite subset. Traditional dialectological issues (regarding, for example, the spatial structure of syntactic variables and the location and nature of syntactic isoglosses) are combined with questions of (theoretically informed) syntactic research. Furthermore, the study aims at comparing various systems of pronominal partitivity for the first time in a truly crosslinguistic manner: This is carried out predominantly within (West) Germanic varieties, but also by including (Central) Romance languages, in order to comprehend both differences and common features on a micro- and mesovariational level. The method used, however, is not only contrastive, but also geolinguistically grounded in the sense that morphological forms and syntactic variation are projected into language space, not least because this allows us to confirm or discover interesting correlations and anti-correlations in the data.
After a thorough definition of the morphosyntactic variable and its variants (inventory and types of forms) plus the different dimensions of variation concerned (areal-horizontal, social-vertical, morphological, syntactic, historical, idiolectal etc.), the DFG-funded project „Syntax of Hessian Dialects“ (SyHD) is presented, since it provides the bulk of the empirical data for the present investigation. In this context, I discuss general and specific questions of data collection (multidimensional approach with indirect and direct elements of elicitation) as well as data analysis and interpretation (e.g. by using linguistic cartography as a tool). The core part of the dissertation addresses the diatopic, diachronic and distributional-syntactic variation of the systems of pronominal partitivity. The main strategies of partitive-anaphoric reference within the German-speaking language area comprise an older system as well as three innovative systems: (i) archaic, fossilized pronominal genitive forms such as „(d)(e)r(e)“, „s(e)n“, „es“ ‘of them/it’ (living on primarily in a strip from West Central German to East Franconian, but also in southern peripheral areas, i.e. in High/Highest Alemannic and Southern Bavarian), remnants of a former, more comprehensive system of partitivity based on genitive case, (ii) the typologically salient indefinite-partitive pronoun „welch-“/„we(l)k-“ ‘some’ of Standard and Low/Northern German, (iii) the southwestern (Alemannic) strategy of null anaphora, and (iv) the southeastern (Bavarian) generalized indefinite pronoun „ein-“ ‘one’, extended to mass nouns and plural entities. This areal distribution is basically confirmed on a smaller scale for Hesse, a dialect area located centrally and thus being under the influence of virtually all strategies, except for the almost absent „ein“-system. Nonetheless, there are some surprising results such as a categorial difference for number and to some extent also gender when it comes to the vitality of the partitive genitive pronouns. Diachronically, one can identify two types of changes in the system of genitive anaphors: internal alterations (by the loss of features or forms) and external processes of replacement (due to the expansion of the innovative means of expression, leading to competing or mixed systems within one dialect or individual). Moreover, as to the course of change, cyclic sequences of weakening and reinforcement can be discerned, which are often reported for language change processes. Concerning the syntactic distribution, especially the genitive pronouns are tested for their compatibility with nominal modifiers such as numerals/(weak) quantifiers, “inflected” cardinal numbers (schwa), adjectives, different types of prepositional phrases and relative versus complement clauses. For this purpose, the dialectal German genitive particles are also functionally and formally compared to the equivalent Dutch partitive/quantitative pronoun „er“ and to the Romance “partitive” clitics Fr. „en“/It. „ne“, the latter of which are integrated in a more sophisticated system of partitive expressions. With respect to the German partitive anaphors, there turns out to be evidence for two distinct syntactic levels of pronominalization. Eventually, the phenomenon is embedded into the more general discussion of nominal ellipsis (elision and pronominalization strategies). As a result of evaluating the licensing approaches discussed in the literature on the basis of new dialectal and typological data, I argue for an analysis in terms of inflection/agreement or morphosyntactic features (i.e. adjectival morphology or, more generally speaking, different inflectional systems as in German vs. English)
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Age, grain size, geochemical, paleontological,mineralogical and leaf-wax biomarker data from lake Voёlvlei, South Africa
No full textSouth Africa is a key region to reconstruct and understand past changes in atmospheric circulation, i.e. temperate Westerlies and tropical Easterlies. Here we present a new record from the coastal wetland Voёlvlei (Lat: 34.013° S; Lon: 22.904° E; 5 m above present sea level), which is situated in the year-round rainfall zone of South Africa on the southern Cape coast, published by Strobel et al. (2021; doi:10.5194/cp-17-1567-2021). A 13 m long sediment core was retrieved and analysed using a multi-proxy approach to investigate both sea-level and environmental changes during the past ~8.5 ka. A robust chronology was established using various dating approaches including OSL and 14C of bulk TOC, organic macrofossils, charcoal and n-alkanes. Our data consist of compound-specific carbon and hydrogen stable isotopes of leaf wax n-alkanes as well as sedimentological assays of inorganic and organic elemental compositions, and paleoecological analyses on fossil remains. For additional information and paleoclimatic interpretation please see Strobel et al. (2021; doi:10.5194/cp-17-1567-2021)
Stone structures technology in Southern Patagonia: the Strobel plateau case
No full textEste trabajo sintetiza los avances realizados en el estudio de las estructuras de piedra denominadas parapetos en la meseta del Strobel (centro-oeste de la provincia de Santa Cruz, Patagonia meridional). Los parapetos se presentan en elevada frecuencia en el área, donde se han registrado hasta el momento un total de 368 estructuras. Se caracterizan por variadas dimensiones, morfologías y emplazamientos. A su vez, se destaca la presencia de diferentes modalidades de agrupamiento y la asociación con artefactos líticos. Se discuten aquí las particularidades de las estructuras mediante el análisis de una muestra de 184 parapetos con el objetivo de puntualizar su posible funcionalidad en un contexto de uso logístico y estacional del área bajo estudio durante el Holoceno tardío. Las características de las estructuras y la presencia de artefactos líticos particulares permiten asociarlos principalmente con actividades de caza. La variabilidad registrada permite discutir en torno a una estrategia de equipamiento y previsión implementada en la meseta del Strobel.This article synthesizes research carried out in the Strobel plateau (Santa Cruz Province, Southern Patagonia) based on the study of stone structures called parapetos. There´s a high frequency of these structures in the area, where 368 parapetos have been registered. They exhibit different dimensions, morphologies and locations. The presence of different grouping modalities and the association with lithic artifacts is highlighted. This work discusses the characteristics of parapetos by analyzing a sample 184 of them. Thus, the objective is to establish their possible function in a context of logistical and seasonal use of the area during Late Holocene. Their characteristics and association with certain lithic artifacts imply their use in hunting contexts.
Moreover, their variability allows discussing provisioning and planning strategies implemented in the Strobel plateau.Sociedad Argentina de Antropologí
