Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1,0, Technical University of Braunschweig, language: English, abstract: Emily Bronte's novel Wuthering Heights is one of the "e;greatest works of art"e; (Kettle 1974, 130) and also "e;one of the 19 th century's most evocative novels"e; (Tibbetts/Welsh 1998, 469). Emily Bronte is perhaps the greatest writer of the three Bronte sisters. She published only one novel, Wuthering Heights (1847), a story of doomed love and revenge. But that single work has its place among the masterpieces of English literature. After its release, a lot of reviewers were shocked, mystified and puzzled, though some also expressed admiration for the strange power of the novel. Wilson, Schlueter and Schlueter (1997, 63) point out that even modern critics have difficulty dealing with the novel, tending either toward a stress on its eccentricity or concentration on very small sections. A lot of books and articles have been written about Emily Bronte s only novel - and there are also a couple of films dealing with the story or with parts of the story. In my study I will concentrate on the question if there are differences between Emily Bront e s novel and the film adaptation by William Wyler (published in 1939). Therefore I am going to describe the most important diversities in detail and give possible reasons for the changes. But before starting with this I would first like to introduce Emily Bront e s biography and a summary of her famous novel Wuthering Heights.

Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,7, Technical University of Braunschweig, course: Introduction to psycholinguistics, language: English, abstract: Speech errors are errors in spontaneous speech and not the product of intentional ungrammaticality or dialects. They occur when the speaker s actual utterance differs in some way from the intended utterance, the so called target. The question is what kind of speech errors can occur and how these errors can be explained with the help of different models of speech production. My termpaper is concerned with different types of speech errors and two important models of speech production by Levelt and Garrett. I will introduce Levelt s model of speech production first. Then I will explain different types of speech errors with reference to this model. In chapter 4 I will give own examples of German speech errors from everyday life and TV, try to put them into Levelt s model and explain them. Afterwards I will introduce the speech production model of Garrett and give two examples of speech errors with reference to this model. At the end of this term paper I will to give a short summary and compare the two models briefly.

Seminar paper from the year 2003 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, Technical University of Braunschweig, language: English, abstract: Gilbert Keith Chesterton started writing when he was a schoolboy and today his work is well-known all over the world. In spite of his literary accomplishments, he considered himself primarily a journalist. But he also wrote a hundred books, contributions to 200 books, hundreds of poems, five plays, five novels and more than two hundred short stories, including a popular series on "e;Father Brown"e; which I think is one of his greatest works. These stories on "e;Father Brown"e; have been written between 1911 and 1935 and are summarized in five books called "e;The Innocence of Father Brown"e;, "e;The Wisdom of Father Brown"e;, "e;The Incredulity of Father Brown"e;, "e;The Secret of Father Brown"e; and "e;The Scandal of Father Brown"e;. All the books "e;constitute a fascinating summary of Chesterton practising what he preached"e; 1 . In my work I will concentrate on the second Father Brown book called "e;The Wisdom of Father Brown"e;. It was published in 1914 and contains twelve stories on the priestdetective Father Brown. First I will give short summaries of the four stories I chose from the book and afterwards I will focus on the main character Father Brown, his attitudes and his development. To do this I will mainly give attention to the four stories I selected but also prove some of my statements by referring to one of the other stories. I will also compare Chesterton s views with the attitudes of his figure Father Brown.

Im Marketingalltag wird immer wieder deutlich, dass die Potenziale der eingesetzten Marketinginstrumente nicht in vollem Umfang ausgeschöpft werden. Hierbei fällt besonders auf, dass es in der Branche des Pferdesports schwerfällt, einzelne Zielgruppen zu identifizieren und diese spezifisch zu bearbeiten. In diesem Buch werden nicht nur geeignete Modelle, Kriterien und Prozesse für die Marktsegmentierung von Käufern verschiedener Pferdesportartikel eruiert, sondern auch die einzelnen Kundengruppen im Pferdesport analysiert. Mit Hilfe einer konkreten und bildhaften Beschreibung werden diese schlussfolgernd in plastische und verständliche Persönlichkeitsbilder – sogenannte Buyer Personas – übersetzt. Es geht darum, Herstellern, Anbietern und anderen Marketing-Managern aus der Pferdesport-Branche einen Mehrwert auf wissenschaftlicher Basis zu liefern und das doch recht besondere Marketing im Pferdesport ein Stück weit transparenter zu machen.
