LANGUAGE PORTRAITS, REPERTOIRE AND SPRACHERLEBEN - THE TRANSCULTURAL LINGUISTIC EXPERIENCE OF BRAZILIAN IMMIGRANTS IN GERMANY
Abstract: Based on the language portrait technique (NEUMANN 1991; KRUMM & JENKINS 2001; BUSCH 2012), this article explores the linguistic repertoire and lived experience of Brazilian immigrants in Germany. Our central aim is...
The articles in this book address the issues of migration, linguistic pluricentricity and linguistic accommodation from different but also complementary angles. They all focus on Spanish, although the contexts of the studies include settings within and outside the Spanish-speaking world. The papers provide new perspectives with regard to the follow...
Globalisation and late-modernity have brought profound socio-political, economic, cultural as well as linguistic transformations. An intensification of mobility and transnational migration around the globe has added a complexity to linguistic interactions and repertoires that can be better analysed with non-essentialist approaches. With this in min...
This chapter deals with the re-functionalization of LLs by civil society in response to terrorist attacks that have been striking the Western world since 2001 and the way the authorities react to the appropriation of the public space. In particular, our data were collected following the incidents that occurred in Madrid after the train bombings on...
Initially conceived as a form of music and dance with vulgar connotations, tango emerged in the large cities located in the River Plate region in Argentina and Uruguay in the late 19th century. Brought to the public’s attention via early forms of the media (records, the radio and film), tango established itself in Europe before finding a mass audie...

The present article is based on an overview of the research being carried out about the maintenance of friendship in the age of digital communication. We show that anthropological approaches emerged in France and Germany suggest a new research design to analyse interactions between humans and machines as well as the impact on social self-management...
The chapter presents the current state of research concerning the development of the BE + past participle constructions from Latin to Spanish. Starting from the description in Rosemeyer (2014) and the theoretical background collated in Kailuweit and Rosemeyer (2015), it will be shown that the functional change does not follow traditional grammatica...
El presente articulo se dedica a los objetivos y a la puesta en practica de la Ley de Doblaje argentina de 2013. Analizamos el concepto de ≪argentino neutro≫, supuesta variedad estandar de la Argentina ideada para realizar doblajes con toque argentino. Dirigimos una mirada critica a la construccion discursiva de este concepto y, mediante una encues...

Ungewöhnliche Bewegungsmuster faszinieren von 1900 bis 1950 sowohl Kunst, Technik und Medizin als auch Alltagskulturen. Die in diesem Band versammelten Einzelanalysen tänzerischer Bewegungen in Ballett, Oper, Musical, Theater, Film und Literatur zeigen die dynamische Verbindung von ästhetischen, medialen und kulturpolitischen Ansprüchen, hinterfrag...
Ce chapitre décrit le français régional de deux régions à langue minoritaire dans son rapport aux langues autochtones, le corse et le catalan. En ce qui concerne la vitalité de la langue régionale, le corse dépasse le catalan. Les corsophones représentent environ un tiers de la population tandis que le nombre de catalanophones ne dépasse pas les 10...
Die Beiträge dieses Bandes haben eine doppelte Zielsetzung. Einerseits ermöglichen sie ein besseres Verständnis von Phänomenen, die mit Migration und daraus resultierenden Identitätskonstruktionen zusammenhängen. Andererseits erlauben sie das Begreifen spezifischer literarischer Aspekte, welche oftmals verallgemeinerbar sind, da die Migrationsliter...
Frequency is defined in terms of number of occurrences of a given linguistic structure in a particular linguistic system or sub-system (as approximated by a suitable corpus). Frequency is assumed to be a possible determinant in usage-based models of language change, language acquisition and language processing. While the default assumption is that...

In Spain, the abbreviation »11-M« is used in analogy to »11-S« (9/11) to mean the series of ten train attacks caused by the bomb explosions on March 11, 2004 in Madrid, three days before the general election. According to the Spanish judiciary resolution from October 31, 2007, this terrorist attack was planned and implemented by Islamist terrorists...
Se dedica a una reflexión profundizada sobre la realidad del diasistema del español actual y sobre las normas ejemplares del español. Ofrece un panorama amplio de lo que se entiende por "pluricentrismo" en la teoría lingüística.
Dieser Band porträtiert Künstler und Wissenschaftler aus Deutschland und Frankreich, in deren Arbeiten intermediale Praktiken im Zentrum stehen. Die Beispiele praktizierter Intermedialität werden dabei nicht über kultur-, medien- oder literaturwissenschaftliche Theorien, sondern über die konkrete Praxis in den Blick genommen. Die Porträts von Maler...
Being mediated as popular and not as folk music, tango has been a transnational phenomenon from its beginnings oscillating between the River Plate Region (Buenos Aires, Montevideo) and Paris as the reference point of Latin American culture in the 19th and even 20th century. The paper will scrutinise the French Connection of Tango in three steps. St...
This paper deals with the analysis of verbs of emotion of Dubois / Dubois-Charlier 1997 in Les Verbes français. Their results will be contrasted with those of Kailuweit 2005. Although the number of verbs is not equal (ca. 2000 in Dubois / Dubois-Charlier 1997 and only 520 in Kailuweit 2005) and the approaches are quite different (syntactic versus s...

The article centers around the debate between defenders of "heavy Catalan" vs. those who advocate "light Catalan" which was initiated by the book Verinosa llengua (‘Venomous language’) published in 1986 by Xavier Pericay and Ferran Toutain, in which the authors argue against traditional literary Catalan (= heavy) and in favour of a formal variety t...
This paper accounts for French and Italian figurative verbs of emotion. These verbs are ambiguous in so far as they have a “physical” and a “psychological” meaning. French verbs are extracted from LG Table 4. I will consider the idea put forward by Lamiroy that the psychological use a of given verb can be determined by a reduction of syntactical fl...
The purpose of this essay is to introduce into Catalan linguistic history of the early 19th century. Focusin on the sociolinguistic context of one of the epoch's most important texts, the catalan grammar of Ballot. I show that the concept of "linguistic conflict" is not an adequate category to discribe the diglossic relation of Catalan and Spanish...
