Sociolinguistic factors associated with the subjectively and objectively measured language development in German preschoolers in three follow-up studies
No full textThe study aimed at an analysis of sociolinguistic variables associated with the language acquisition progress between the first and the second test sessions in three follow-up studies with German preschool children. In all three samples, children acquiring German, both Germans and immigrants, were tested twice with validated language tests within a time span of several months. Furthermore, language skills of children were judged by daycare center teachers. The language competence of normally developed test subjects did not change much between two test sessions, whereas children acquiring German under more challenging circumstances were still in the process of active development, mostly due to the daycare center attendance, language courses, and medical therapies. Therefore, contra-intuitively at first sight, the following factors were associated with the quick progress in language development (floor effect): bad school marks for the language competence at the beginning of the daycare attendance, low age at the first test session, not regular attendance of the daycare centers, late contact to the German language, foreign language(s) spoken at home, medical issues, and some other unfavorable language acquisition conditions
Words Won’t Fail
No full textApplying sexual selection theory to language, it can be assumed that high verbal proficiency increases attractiveness, but male more than female attractiveness, because women have higher costs regarding reproduction and are thus more selective in mate choice. These predictions were tested experimentally. In the first study, videos were used as the stimuli for opposite-sex participants where an actor/actress performed verbal self-presentations. The content was alike but was delivered with three levels of verbal proficiency with respect to lexical, grammatical, and fluency features. The main effect of verbal proficiency on attractiveness was supported, but the interaction effect was not supported between verbal proficiency and sex according to which male more than female attractiveness is affected by verbal proficiency. In the second study, only audio tracks from the videos were used. Both effects were significant, supporting the assertion that language plays a significant role in mate choice, especially for male attractiveness

Avgang 2025: Eugen Onegin
No full textOperahøgskolens masterstudenter viser sin avgangsforestilling Eugen Onegin av P. Tsjajkovskij i Den Norske Opera & Ballett i Bjørvika.
Eugen Onegin er en opera i tre akter, basert på Aleksandr Pusjkins verseroman med samme navn.
Operaen handler om Eugen Onegin, en ung og verdensvant mann som avviser kjærligheten til den unge Tatjana. Tatjana skriver et lidenskapelig kjærlighetsbrev til Onegin, men han avviser henne kaldt. Senere utfordrer Onegin sin beste venn, Lenskij, til en duell, som ender med at Lenskij blir drept. Flere år senere møter Onegin Tatjana igjen, nå en gift kvinne, og innser at han elsker henne. Men det er for sent; Tatjana avviser ham, og Onegin blir igjen alene og angrende.

EUGEN SIMION: EXEGI MONUMENTUM
Full text linkThis text is a reminder that October marks one year since the passing of Professor Academician Eugen Simion, a prominent figure in Romanian culture. The article pays tribute to the efforts and achievements of Eugen Simion’s work and legacy, exemplified by the verses of the Latin poet Horace, “exegi monumentum aere perennius”. It highlights the significant contributions of this exceptional personality of Romanian culture and literature, emphasising Eugen Simion’s reputation as one of the most esteemed literary critics and historians, essayists and theorists in the field of literature. He is considered the (theoretical) founder of biographical genres (journals, correspondence, memoirs). His activity as an editor, preface writer, author of monographs and promoter of national-scale projects yielded important results, including Dicționarul General al Literaturii Române ‘The General Dictionary of Romanian Literature’ (DGLR, two editions), Cronologia vieții literare românești 1944 – 2012 ‘The Chronology of Romanian Literary Life 1944 – 2012’ (CVLR, 60 volumes) and the facsimile reproduction of Eminescu’s manuscripts (notebooks) (38 volumes). A university professor and member of the Romanian Academy and president of this high forum between 1997 and 2006, Eugen Simion also became a member of seven other academies in the United Kingdom, Denmark, France, Greece, Moldova, Spain and Serbia. Some of his books and studies were translated in Belgium, Switzerland, France, Germany, the United States, Serbia and Hungary. The unexpected loss of Professor Eugen Simion left a vast literary project unfinished, deprived now of the infectious energy and enthusiasm of its initiator. These projects are currently being continued and completed by researchers at the “G. Calinescu” Institute of Literary History and Theory of the Romanian Academy, where Eugen Simion served as director

Last but not least, the author of this article extracts from the work of Eugen Simion a series of memorable quotes, which he considers, in a symbolic way, “badges on the lapel of his books”
