Grammaticalization Paths of English and High German Existential Constructions
A Corpus-based Study
Häftad, Engelska, 2009
1 127 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Existential constructions are a fundamental feature of many Indo-European languages, and constructions with non-referential subjects have developed in all of the latter, albeit at different stages in their histories. High German does not feature a prototypical existential construction that is equivalent in syntactic and pragmatic function and semantic meaning to the English existential there-construction. How did a prototypical existential structure originate in English? Why is it that High German has never developed such a construction? Has it ever shown a tendency towards developing one? How did two closely related languages such as English and High German come to differ so much with respect to these constructions? By means of investigating a variety of historical and contemporary data this study shows that not only semantic, pragmatic and syntactic factors are involved, which decide the choice of a certain construction, but also very much the more general different linguistic development that the two languages underwent in the course of time.

Between History and Fiction
The Early Modern Spanish Siege Play
Häftad, Engelska, 2010
806 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This study explores a number of early modern comedias that deal with historical siege or military episodes in the history of the Iberian peoples. Cervantes’s La Numancia, Lope de Vega’s El asalto de Mastrique and his lesser known La nueva victoria de don Gonzalo de Córdoba, Calderón de la Barca’s El sitio de Bredá, and Vélez de Guevara’s El Hércules de Ocaña are key texts examined here. Taking the distinction between history and fiction in Neo-Aristotelian literary theory as a point of departure, this book considers the intellectual and historical conditions that affect the ways in which early modern dramatists interpret historical events according to their own literary and ideological purposes. The interplay of history and fiction demonstrates uses and discontents of legitimizing fiction in the early modern period. Parallel themes of epic and siege intermingled with romance and carnivalesque humour, provide alternative perspectives to early modern representations of empire and war on the Spanish stage.

Diversification to a degree
An exploratory study of students’ experience at four higher education institutions in China
Häftad, Engelska, 2010

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
The higher education system in China has experienced a dramatic expansion in student numbers and has seen the mushrooming of several new types of degree-granting institutions. In a very short period of time, these new institutions have developed into a primary provider of higher education in China. Drawing on both quantitative and qualitative data, this book examines the diversity of the institutions and students’ experience at different higher education institutions (HEIs) in China. This work offers a complete review of the policy context and is unique in examining the relationship between institutional diversification and students’ experiences.

Discourses and Tales of Grant-Seeking Activity
Academic Writing and Professional Expertise
Häftad, Engelska, 2011
1 704 kr
Skickas inom 3-6 vardagar
Grant seeking – the first step in knowledge production – has been an indispensable part of academic life, yet a challenging task for neophyte as well as veteran scholars. We are always curious about how grant winners compose their abstracts, cite previous work, present their proposed study, and negotiate with gate-keepers behind the scene. Building upon ethnographic data and a large corpus of authentic research grant proposals and grant reviews, this book intends to demystify the grant seeking activity. It is an invaluable resource for grant agencies, grant reviewers and grant writers, particularly novice grant writers and/or non-native English writers.Discourses and Tales of Grant-Seeking Activity is however more than a resource book. It is one of the few studies that draw upon two genre theories, encompass both quantitative and qualitative research approaches, and unite an exploration of macro-level recurrences in discursive activity and micro-level examinations of individual writers’ agency, positioning, negotiation and identity construction. It enhances our understanding of the development of professional expertise in academia and thus will be of interest to researchers in the fields of academic writing, genre analysis and Language for Specific Purposes (LSP).

In the field of comparative legal history, Ethiopia is still an unknown country. One of its treasures is the Fetha Nagast, a book of law which had a great influence in the history of Ethiopia and still has great consideration in the society, with its richness in Biblical and Christian principles.This book presents for the first time an ecclesiological and missiological reflection on the Fetha Nagast. The first part of the work is focused on the origin, structure and content of this book of law. In the second part, the author presents the ecclesiology of the Fetha Nagast and its implications and prospectives in Ethiopian Catholic Church. Other aspects studied are brotherhood ecclesiology, the role of the Holy Spirit in the past and present and the notion of Church in the Fetha Nagast, as well as the history of Christianity in Ethiopia.

Procede del Padre y del Hijo
Estudio de la "Clarificación Romana "de 1995 y de sus fuentes patrísticas
Häftad, Spanska, 2011

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
El Filioque es una de las cuestiones más largas y complejas de la historia del dogma cristiano. Se cuenta todavía entre las causas de la división entre católicos y ortodoxos. En 1995, a petición de Juan Pablo II, el Pontificio Consejo para la promoción de la Unidad de los Cristianos publicó un breve texto que expresa la comprensión católica del problema. Entre sus diversas implicaciones, el documento, conocido como Clarificación romana, se centra en los aspectos dogmáticos, que expone a partir de una amplia base de referencias patrísticas. El presente estudio analiza la Clarificación en dos partes. La primera presenta los precedentes históricos y magisteriales del texto, su génesis y sus fuentes, y ofrece una síntesis de las reacciones ecuménicas que siguieron a su publicación. Como vía para un entendimiento, la segunda parte del texto propone una consideración detenida de las fuentes patrísticas, orientales y occidentales. En ella se presentan los principales pasajes sobre el origen del Espíritu Santo y su relación con el Hijo, contextualizados en el pensamiento trinitario de cada Padre. En función de él se valora el uso que ha realizado la Clarificación de sus fuentes.

Calvin’s «Theodicy»and the Hiddenness of God
Calvin’s «Sermons on the Book of Job»
Häftad, Engelska, 2012
1 439 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Calvin’s Theodicy has been substantially ignored or simply negated until now on the assumption that the issues raised by the modern problem of evil and Calvin’s discussion of providence and evil would be different. The unspoken premise underlying this conviction is that theodicy is a modern problem, since earlier formulations in no way attempted to justify God’s actions.This book goes decisively in the opposite direction. It aims to understand the core of Calvin’s Theodicy and to demonstrate that one of the most important reasons that prompted Calvin to preach for almost 2 years 159 Sermons on the Book of Job was to «vindicate» God’s justice by demonstrating the meaningfulness of God’s activity in human life.After examining the status of the recent research on Calvin’s Theodicy, this work studies the steps that led the French reformer to his insights and the drafting of the Sermons. Further, it studies the juridical framework of Calvin’s defence of the justice of God. Finally, the author analyses the answers given by Calvin to the problem of human anguish: Why do innocent people suffer? In what way one can still believe in an Omnipotent God?

Illocutionary constructions in English: Cognitive motivation and linguistic realization
A study of the syntactic realizations of the directive, commissive and expressive speech acts in English
Häftad, Engelska, 2013
1 045 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Grounded in the Lexical Constructional Model (LCM), a usage-based meaning construction model of language of recent design, this research argues that illocutionary meaning either results from filling in constructional variables such as X in the Can You XVP? construction or from affording access to abstract situational cognitive models through the metonymic activation of relevant elements of their structure. One such model is the Cost-Benefit Cognitive Model, which is incorporated into the description of pragmatic meaning and presented as lying at the core of the conventionalization process of illocutionary constructions. The inferential path based on the instantiation of the Cost-Benefit Cognitive Model determines the activation of speech act values that may become conventionalized within a linguistic community. The study determines the applicability of the analytical tools developed by the LCM for illocutionary description. The illocutionary acts selected are those proposed by the Cost-Benefit Cognitive Model as exploiting cultural principles of interaction.

Comparative Critical Views on the Representation of Foreignness and Otherness
Häftad, Engelska, 2013
1 260 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This book focuses on the theme of foreignness and its representation in literature and cognate discourses. The volume brings together essays in English, Spanish and Catalan that consider from original and informed perspectives both the conceptualization of the foreign and foreignness in its human, geographical/spatial, historical and cultural guises, not only as contemplated but also as a lens in the act of contemplation. This multi- and inter-disciplinary collection of essays is the result of an inspired and timely collaboration between specialists in comparative literature from across the world. Dealing with fundamental questions relating to the trans- and intercultural, otherness, migration, cosmopolitanism and the global, it will be of interest to researchers and students in comparative literature, modern languages and area studies, travel writing, intercultural studies, sociolinguistics and social anthropology.

Plotinus and African Concepts of Evil
Perspectives in multi-cultural Philosophy
Häftad, Engelska, 2008

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This book explores the concepts of evil in the world-views of Plotinus and the Nso’ people of Cameroon. The author analyzes the theories of the natural structure and social organization of these views of the world. He stresses the importance of comparing Plotinus and African philosophy. The book offers a proper appreciation of fundamental differences, parallels and similarities and seeks to build on shared values and common existential concerns in the world-views of Plotinus and the Nso’. This book highlights the assumption that the world understood in terms of its wider dimensions is not a purposeless conglomerate of phenomena and events that bear no relation to each other, but is rather a structured whole, defined by hierarchy and order.

Migration, Multiculturalism and Language Maintenance in Australia
Polish Migration to Melbourne in the 1980s
Häftad, Engelska, 2008
886 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
The author sets out to examine migration movements to Australia and the role of successive immigration legislation: from the notorious White Australia Policy through to the contemporary multicultural agenda. Her detailed case study sheds new light on the experiences of Polish migrants of the 1980s and their children in Melbourne. The story of successive waves of migration – particularly following the Second World War – and the influence of these on multicultural Australia provide the context of this study. Of particular interest is the relationship between the policy of multiculturalism and language maintenance among first generation Polish migrants and their children (the second generation). In her empirical study of language maintenance, the author analyses ‘push’ and ‘pull’ factors for migration from Poland to Australia. She examines the costs of migration; Polish migrants’ experiences of Australia’s multicultural policy; an evaluation of parents’ migration by their children; re-migration to Poland; interaction between Polish migrants and Australian-born people; and the influence of domains such as the home, institutions of learning, the Polish Catholic Church, the media and other organisations and spheres of Polish cultural activity.

Internet and Rural Development in China: The Socio-Structural Paradigm
Häftad, Engelska, 2008

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Despite its low penetration in China’s vast rural areas, the Internet is generally perceived as a new engine for rural empowerment. By examining five Internet application initiatives in rural China, this book offers a unique view of the diffusion and usage of the Internet and its implications on the lives of rural people. Placed in the political, socioeconomic and infrastructure contexts of rural China, the book departs from the classical diffusion of innovations model and extends the existing knowledge on the adoption and usage of the Internet by rural people. In addition to testing the applicability of the diffusion of innovations theory to the diffusion of Information and Communications Technologies in the rural areas today, the study provides rich empirical evidence regarding the actual impact of the Internet on the livelihood of rural people. It also shows some innovative uses of the Internet in rural development.

«Drama» of the Messiah in Matthew 8 and 9
A Study from a Communicative Perspective
Häftad, Engelska, 2008

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
In contrast to the other synoptic evangelists the author of Matthew proceeded differently in many respects. Why did he modify the text so much and arrange ten miracle narratives one after the other at one stretch with minor interruptions? Why did he place the so-called «miracle chapters» immediately after the Sermon on the Mount. Why did he enclose them between two summary statements on either side? These are only some of the unanswered questions about chapters 8 and 9 of Matthew’s Gospel.Beginning with Aristotle’s theory of the drama or tragedy, the author suggests that the way the evangelist has reworked and reorganized the miracle narratives is similar to the structure of the classic drama. By discovering the narrative strategies and the discourse aspect, we are able to demonstrate how each episode corresponds to the different moments of a plot such as the initial situation, inciting moment, complication, climax with suspense and finally resolution and denouement.

Europeanization of Modern Written Chinese
The Case Study of the Changing Third Person Pronouns in the Twentieth Century and Beyond
Häftad, Engelska, 2011

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This research focuses on the historical study of the third person pronouns ta and tamen in the past 100 years’ history of Modern Written Chinese. Since the replacement of wenyan (classical literary Chinese) by baihua (written vernacular Chinese) as the basis of Modern Written Chinese after the May Fourth Movement in 1919, it has been widely claimed that Modern Written Chinese has undergone enormous changes, and that a major influence of such changes has been foreign languages. The evolution of the generic ta () into the masculine ta () and tamen (), the feminine ta () and tamen (), and the neuter ta (/) and tamen (/), is recognized to be due to a process of Europeanization of the Chinese language through translation. The primary goal of this study is to establish the development of the third person pronouns ta and tamen from the beginning of the 20th century up to the present. The second goal is to examine the role of ‘Europeanization’ in these changes to the pronouns and the general development of Modern Chinese. Three periods from the beginning and middle of the 20th century (1904-1919, 1952-1953), and the beginning of 21st century (2002-2003) are selected for examination. Changes to the anaphoric pronouns in three grammatical areas, namely gender, number and syntactic function, are investigated based on the indigenous Chinese text and the translated Chinese text, of which the latter represents the Europeanized influence. This analysis is also indicative of the general trend in foreign influence on the Chinese language over the past 100 years.

Development aid has recently become an important part of international politics in general and Norwegian foreign policy in particular. This study explores the moral discourse of contemporary Norwegian development aid organisations and professional development workers. Adopting a discourse-analytical and multi-disciplinary approach, key concepts such as human rights, charity, justice and compassion are discussed. Furthermore, the notions of professionalism and partnerships in development are addressed, as well as the role and life-style of the individual development worker. The following development agencies have been analysed: Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Norwegian Church Aid, Save the Children Norway, and Norwegian People’s Aid. Twenty-three staff members and representatives of these organisations have been interviewed.

This book analyses T. F. Torrance’s theology of incarnation. His theology is built upon several crucial presuppositions. This book examines these presuppositions and their role within the framework of Torrance’s theology. It explores its unitary structure by analyzing his fundamental methods in hermeneutics, dialectics, natural theology, and natural science. In particular, the study addresses the internal incoherence, inconsistency and seemingly paradoxical nature of his writings (such as the integration of dualistic ideas into a unitary theological structure), and highlights the impact of Barthian theology on his theological formulation.

Minjung and Process
Minjung Theology in a Dialogue with Process Thought
Häftad, Engelska, 2008
920 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This book reconstructs the legacy of Korean minjung theology by reformulating its essential ideas in a dialogue with process thought. In a minimal sense, this study is a theological reinterpretation of the doctrine of the minjung messiah, an idea which historically suffered from a misunderstanding that minjung theology created a ‘messianic confusion’ while replacing christology and soteriology by a radical anthropology. This erroneous conception occurred when the idea was placed within the philosophically dualistic framework of traditional doctrines in which the work of minjung is totally separated from the work of Christ. In order to avoid such a dualistic understanding, the author critically adopts process panentheism and makes minjung ideas more communicable and more comprehensive in current theological, religious, and philosophical debates. Beyond defending the idea of the minjung messiah, he also argues for an inclusive minjung hermeneutics that promotes the fundamental insight of minjung theology, in philosophical clarity. Through minjung hermeneutics, minjung theology expands its practical concern and overcomes the theoretical nihilism in postmodern studies.

Church in China: Faith, Ethics, Structure
The Heritage of the Reformation for the Future of the Church in China
Häftad, Engelska, 2009
1 059 kr
Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
The Protestant Church in China is growing very fast. However, the role of the Church in society is still fragile and marginal. The Church needs a strong ethical and structural development. This study analyses the theological, ethical and ecclesiological heritage of the Reformation and it shows how this can build the foundation for the future of the Church in China. Four models serve as orientation: the Reformers Luther and Calvin and the theologians Bonhoeffer and Barth in the 20th century, with their vision of Christian faith and a humane society. The critical analysis of the missionary heritage since the 19th century shows its contribution for the acceptance of the tradition of the Reformation for the growing Church in China.The author combines this theological and ethical perspective with the inculturation in the strong ethical tradition of the Chinese culture. He proposes the encounter between the spirituality of the Western culture and that of the traditional culture of China through the relationship with Confucianism. The book also offers elements for the dialogue around modern values such as human rights and civil society. In this dialogue, Chinese Protestantism can play more and more an important role.

Adam Mickiewicz, Polens größter Nationaldichter, feiert heuer seinen 200. Geburtstag. Die Welt gedenkt seiner, soweit sie ihn überhaupt kennt. In seiner Zeit wurde er mit Goethe und Byron in einem Zuge genannt. Als Mitglied der Philomathen in Wilno verdächtigt, an Verschwörungen beteiligt zu sein, wurde er nach Rußland verbannt. Mit Hilfe seiner russischen Freunde - er war mit Puschkin befreundet - gelang es ihm, Rußland per Schiff zu verlassen und sich über Deutschland in den Westen abzusetzen. Nach der Niederschlagung des Novemberaufstandes 1830, an dem er aber nicht teilnahm, da er in Italien weilte, schloß er sich der großen Emigrationswelle an und verbrachte zunächst eine Zeitlang in Dresden, wo er die Dziady III schrieb. Dieser Teil seines Hauptwerkes heißt daher auch Dresdner Dziady. Von Dresden begab sich Mickiewicz nach Paris, wo er, mit Unterbrechungen, als Emigrant lebte und seinen Pan Tadeusz schrieb.

Der Wirtschaftsplan des von 1900 bis 1904 regierenden österreichischen Ministerpräsidenten Ernest von Koerber (1850-1919) ist ein Thema europäischer Dimensionen. Die Konzeptionen des Koerber-Plans wurden seinerzeit als die kühnsten und weitreichendsten Vorhaben in der Geschichte der Doppelmonarchie bezeichnet. Die gesellschaftliche Ebene ist vor allem im Hinblick auf die politischen Auseinandersetzungen zu bewerten und wird im Kontext der sozialen und wirtschaftlichen Spannungen, die der Koerber-Plan zu reduzieren suchte, deutlich. Koerber versuchte durch sein Wirtschaftsprogramm den bisher vernachlässigten Wirtschaftsbereichen der Habsburgermonarchie einen Aufschwung zu geben, in dessen Folge nicht nur der allgemeine Wohlstand gehoben, sondern auch der Nationalitätenstreit eingedämmt werden sollte. Das Ziel des Koerber-Plans war die wirtschaftliche Verbesserung der Lebensumstände für die vielen Nationalitäten innerhalb der Doppelmonarchie. Die These lautete, dass keine Nationalität das Habsburgerreich verlassen werde, wenn die wirtschaftliche Situation aller Bürgerinnen und Bürger dies nicht rechtfertige. Ein Ziel, das auch in der Gegenwart vielfach im Rahmen der Europäischen Union genannt wird.

Recht vage versteht man hierzulande unter Negative Campaigning Schmutzkampagnen und verbale Schlammschlachten, die uns amerikanische Wahlkämpfe misstrauisch, wenn nicht sogar mit Abscheu betrachten lassen. Doch es handelt sich hierbei um eine erfolgreiche Strategie amerikanischer Wahlkampagnen, die auf eine annähernd zweihundertjährige Tradition zurückblickt und sich nach wie vor bei Kandidaten gleich welcher Couleur großer Beliebtheit erfreut. Da Negative Campaigning einen bemerkenswert großen Einfluß auf den Ausgang von Wahlen nehmen kann, ist es ein für die Konzeption von Wahlkampagnen entscheidendes Thema. In den USA nehmen sich ihm neben Wahlkampfberatern auch Kommunikations- und Medienexperten sowie Politikwissenschaftler an. Diese drei Perspektiven nimmt der Band gleichermaßen in den Blick, wenn er versucht, dem deutschen Leser die heimliche Macht und den Erfolg von Negative Campaigning vorzustellen.

Baptist Reconsideration of Baptism and Ecclesiology

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
The twentieth century may be said to have been the century of ecumenism, a striving worldwide to realize church unity at different levels. It has frequently been asserted that one condition for reaching visible Church unity is that there should be basic agreement on baptism, eucharist and ministry. These three topics are dealt with in the Lima-document or BEM (1982). In the present study the sections of the latter that concern baptism are analyzed and also contextualized through a closer study of one of the responses to BEM, the official response of the Baptist Union of Sweden. This response gives a more traditional, closed Baptist opinion: baptism cannot be the basis of the church unity sought by BEM. The author shows here, however, that fundamental Baptist principles are being reconsidered, indicating considerable diversity within the Baptist Union concerning these questions. On the local level there are many ecumenical strivings, concretized in ecumenical congregations where different theologies and practices meet. This has opened up possibilities of church unity on the basis of both types of baptism (infant baptism and believers’ baptism), and also membership on the basis of faith alone. By comparing official documents with public expressions of unofficial opinion, this study shows that the reality is more complex and ambiguous than is apparent in official documents. This book could be of interest because of its application of new methods to the study of »reception». To help an international readership, a historical presentation of the Baptist Union of Sweden introduces this study.

Karel van Manders Schilder-Boeck von 1604 ist eine der komplexesten kunsthistoriographischen und kunsttheoretischen Quellenschriften zur Malerei der Frühen Neuzeit. Angesichts der theoretischen Gewichtung sind dem Schilder-Boeck maltechnische Inhalte bislang konsequent abgesprochen worden. Die Vielzahl der in den Lebensbeschreibungen und im Lehrgedicht abgelagerten technischen Hinweise lässt jedoch auch eine auf die Malpraxis bezogene Lesart des Textes zu. Denn gerade durch die Einbeziehung von produktionsrelevanten Aspekten vermag van Mander zwei wesentliche Intentionen seiner Theoriediskussion argumentativ zu stützen: Die Widerlegung der von Vasari beanspruchten kulturellen Autorität der italienischen Malerei und die Formulierung eines demonstrativen Protests gegen das einengende, jeglichen künstlerischen Fortschritt hemmende Regelwerk der niederländischen Zünfte.

Question of Madness in the Works of E.T.A. Hoffmann and Mary Shelley
With Particular Reference to "Frankenstein" and "Der Sandmann"

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus was first published in 1818. A year before Hoffmann’s novella Der Sandmann was published in the first of the two volumes of his Nachtstücke. A major theme for Mary Shelley and E.T.A. Hoffmann and a hitherto neglected aspect of academic research is the question of madness, in Frankenstein and Der Sandmann. Both texts represent certain features shared by the Romantic movements in Germany and England, such as an ironic stance towards Romanticism itself, its Prometheanism, or its indulgence in the occult. At the same time both authors criticise the Enlightenment project more than they do celebrate the idea of progress. The first two chapters of this study stress the contrastive approaches of Hoffmann and Mary Shelley in their explorations of madness. The rest of this analysis emphasises the similarities of mythological, cultural and linguistic contexts within which Mary Shelley and Hoffmann settle their preoccupation with madness. This study aims at finding out whether insanity is an illness of the isolated individual, or whether society is sick itself. Is insanity related to the body or the mind? Is it an image for the crisis of representation in postrevolutionary Romanticism?

«Alles Leben ist Wiederkehr und Wiederholung», notiert Thomas Mann 1940 in Anspielung auf die Tetralogie Joseph und seine Brüder. Der Gedanke des Imitierens vorgelebter Spuren ist für Mann von immenser Bedeutung. Als eines der prägendsten Vorbilder dürfte Richard Wagner genannt werden. Auch in den späteren Werken, in denen Name und Œuvre des Musikers keine direkte Erwähnung mehr finden, ist die Wagner-«Magie» nicht verklungen. Diese Arbeit geht der Aufgabe nach, die oft im Verborgenen liegenden Strukturen offenzulegen, die Manns Zauberberg und vor allem seine biblische Tetralogie mit der Sphäre Wagners verbinden. Zur Sprache kommen Anklänge und inhaltliche Entsprechungen, aber auch gedankliche Konzepte. Es geht um die produktive Auseinandersetzung Manns mit Wagners Ideenwelt.

Dazu gibt die Studie Einblicke in Historie, Forschungsstand und politische Hintergründe dieses Fortbildungsbereichs und zeigt wesentliche Aspekte zur Professionalität in der Gestaltung institutioneller Weiterbildung. Die praxisorientierte Erkenntnisgewinnung resultiert aus einer umfangreichen Teilnehmerbefragung des Initiativkreis Umfassende Zahnerhaltung (IUZ), einem jeweils zwei Jahre dauernden Fortbildungszyklus für Zahnärzte. So können Wirkungsmöglichkeiten effektiver zahnärztlicher Fortbildung, Ansätze zu ihrer professionellen Gestaltung, aber auch weitergehende Forschungsanliegen dargestellt werden.
