    Abstract ; The contribution analyses how the late medieval Harðar saga uses place-names as literary devices. It proposes that toponyms are employed not only to locate plot elements, but also for purposes of subversion, the dropping of keywords then taken up by the narrative in an often grotesque and ironic fashion, the creation of an (again, typically ironic) subtext, and the evocation of physical topographies and their visual appearance in the context of accounts of travels. Thus, the contribution argues that place-names are a central part of the storyteller’s toolkit which can provide important pointers for how to read the saga. ; Abstract ; Der Beitrag analysiert, wie die spätmittelalterliche Harðar saga Ortsnamen als literarische Ausdrucksmittel verwendet. Dabei wird vorgeschlagen, dass Toponyme nicht nur herangezogen werden, um die Schauplätze von Elementen der Sagahandlung zu lokalisieren, sondern auch zu Zwecken der Subversion, als insbesondere in ironischer und grotesker Weise verwendete Stichwortgeber für die Entwicklung von einzelnen Episoden der Saga, zur Schaffung eines (erneut typischerweise ironischen) Subtexts, und zur Evozierung des visuellen Erscheinungsbilds der physischen Topographie im Rahmen von Reisebeschreibungen. Damit erweisen sich Ortsnamen als ein zentraler Teil des »Werkzeugkastens« des Erzählers, der für eine Interpretation der Saga wichtige Anhaltspunkte geben kann.

    Keynote ; This keynote uses the case of collaborative professional text production to discuss the concept of linguistic practice from both theoretical and practical perspectives. By drawing on large corpora of real-life data and applying the multi-method approach of progression analysis, practices are identified that allow for flexible planning in the dynamic system of text production. Findings show that key features of the text production practices under investigation, as well as of the writing phases they dominate, scale up. This means that the patterns found in both practices and phases recur in similar forms throughout the various levels and time frames of text production. They are manifested during the split seconds it takes to make stylistic decisions as well as over the days, weeks and months of organizational document cycling. This understanding of scalability reaches far beyond former concepts of planning in text production research. In conclusion, it appears text production research conducted in real-life contexts sharpens theoretical approaches to linguistic practices on one hand, and contributes to sustainably solving practical problems on the other.

    This article examines the research and creative process of creating a short animated documentary about the relevance of Shakespeare for digital natives in Singapore. The film mixes animation and live action interviews in various forms to tell its story. The project offers new insights in three ways: First, by uncovering new facts about Shakespeare perception in Singapore. Secondly, by closely examining the specific role of animated layers in the context of adding, enhancing and altering the recorded live action footage for the emerging documentary. Thirdly, by proposing a taxonomy for the animated strategies used.

    We present a review of technologies designed to support writing instruction in higher and secondary education that was carried out by an international team of researchers within the European Literacy Network (funded by COST Action IS1401; www.is1401eln.eu/en/working-groups/working-group-3/). The review covers tools to support both native and non-native writers and focuses primarily on instructional affordances, thus broadening the scope of previous research in this field that was organised according to technological specifications. In this vein, Allen, Jacovina, and McNamara (2015) proposed a distinction between Automated Writing Evaluation (AWE), Essay Scoring (ES) and Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS). Our review shows that, with technology enhanced learning becoming more ubiquitous and widespread, new technologies and tools catering to a broader range of pedagogical settings and approaches are emerging. Method Data collection was done through an extensive literature and database search in six European languages and an online survey sent out to the expert community via mailing lists. Of the 89 tools that were collected in this way, we retained 44 tools for further analysis, after applying exclusion criteria (e.g., appropriate target group, emphasis on writing activities). For a comprehensive and systematic overview, a coding framework consisting of 40 qualitative and quantitative descriptors was developed. Next to general information about e.g. supported languages and technological specifications, the descriptors cover features related to writing processes, pedagogical approaches, feedback modalities and interaction support. Results In this presentation, we will briefly outline the major results of our analysis. Next to expanding the existing classification by adding other forms of learning technology, e.g., interactive tutorials, the results uncover an imbalance. While automated support for revision on the micro-level targeting factual knowledge is well represented, tools that support the development ...

    Das Compendium heroicum wird seit 2016 vom Sonderforschungsbereich 948 „Helden – Heroisierungen – Heroismen“ an der Universität Freiburg erstellt. Beteiligt sind Forscher zahlreicher geisteswissenschaftlicher Disziplinen, die kollaborativ Artikel verfassen und als digitale Open-Access-Publikation verfügbar machen. Als interdisziplinäres Referenzwerk bildet das Compendium heroicum den aktuellen Forschungsstand über Helden und Heldinnen ab. Es bietet Erläuterungen zu zahlreichen Einzelphänomenen des Heroischen, seiner Figuren, Funktionen, Medialität und Praxis. Dazu wählt es einen weiten historischen Ansatz, der von der Antike bis in die Gegenwart reicht, und eine überkulturelle Perspektive, die sich für die Bedeutung heroischer Figuren innerhalb und außerhalb europäischer Kontexte interessiert. Entwickelt wird das Compendium heroicum in einer Kooperation zwischen dem Sonderforschungsbereich 948 „Helden – Heroisierungen – Heroismen“ der Universität Freiburg und dem „Open Encylopedia System“ der Freien Universität Berlin. Es wird gefördert durch die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.

    Die Heidelberger Poetikdozentur ist eine jeweils im Sommersemester vom Germanistischen Seminar der Universität Heidelberg ausgerichtete Vorlesungsreihe, zu der ein renommierter Schriftsteller bzw. eine renommierte Schriftstellerin eingeladen ist, um in öffentlichen Vorträgen und Lesungen Einblick in den kreativen Prozess des Schreibens zu geben. In einem die Dozentur begleitenden Hauptseminar haben die Studierenden die Möglichkeit, mit dem Poetikdozenten bzw. der Poetikdozentin zu diskutieren. Die Heidelberger Poetikvorlesungen erscheinen in einer eigenen Reihe beim Universitätsverlag Winter. 1993 als Kooperation zwischen der Universität und der Stadt Heidelberg begründet wird die Poetikdozentur vom Kulturamt der Stadt unterstützt und von dem Heidelberger Ehepaar Dr. Karin und Dr. Peter Koepff gefördert. Sie ist Teil des UNESCO-Programms »City of Literature«, dem Heidelberg seit 2014 angehört. Die Poetikdozentur wird verantwortet von Priv.-Doz. Dr. Friederike Reents (Leitung) und Prof. Dr. Michaela Kopp-Marx (Organisation u. Durchführung). Maxim Biller wurde am 25. August 1960 in Prag geboren. 1970 zog er mit seinen Eltern, die in den 1950er Jahren aus der Sowjetunion emigriert waren, nach Deutschland. Nach dem Germanistikstudium in Hamburg und München und einem weiteren Studium an der dortigen Journalistenschule begann er seine Karriere beim Zeitgeist-Magazin »Tempo«, wo er sich mit der Kolumne »100 Zeilen Hass« einen Namen machte. Als Kritiker des »Literarischen Quartetts« (2015/16) schloss er an diese frühe Phase des urteilsfreudigen Meinungskampfs noch einmal an. Neben seiner journalistischen Tätigkeit (u.a. für die »Zeit«, den »Spiegel« und die »FAZ«) begann Maxim Biller, Anfang der neunziger Jahre literarisch zu publizieren. Dem erzählerischen Debüt »Wenn ich einmal reich und tot bin« (1990) folgten Romane, Essays, Erzählungen, Dramen und Kinderbücher, zuletzt der 900-Seiten-Roman »Biografie« (2016) und die gesammelte Neuauflage der »Hass«-Kolumnen (2017). Der neue Roman »Biografie« bildet einen ...

    Abstract: Poetic inquiry offers the opportunity to become intimate with those multiple facets of self that shape our understanding. However, as scholars, even when we engage in creative forms of inquiry, we often find ourselves driven to ignore certain aspects of our identities. To acknowledge the personal within our research is uncomfortable and some have even argued, irrelevant. I believe our stories of the personal are extremely relevant, reflecting a landscape of multiple, fluid, intersecting and often contradictory subjectivities. As scholars, each of us has or will struggle at some point along our journey in relationship to our place within our work of doing research. The struggles may be different, but the discomfort is shared. Across the space of this article I use poetic inquiry to enter into discomfort and uncertainly as I try to make sense of what it means to engage in scholarship as a new mother. Through poetic inquiry my story does not exist in isolation, but instead becomes one

    Abstract: While fathers seldom say "I love you" to their son(s), there is also acknowledgment that sons rarely say it to their father. Confessions of love are like notes in a melody of previous affirmations, so what is it like for a son to say it, especially if large parts of his life are spent in "connective avoidance" with his dad? Writing on the (im)possibility of eventually saying "I love you", just before he died, I offer a "blissfully poetic" account of the experience of saying it. I also reflect on the lingering significance it has had for my experience of loss and bereavement. Although this text offers no easy formula, it ends by showing what a text of bliss might eventually look like for a son in recovery. Addressing the questions, so what? And, now what, then? implications beyond the self are also considered

    Abstract: The largely unregulated early years of Canadian radio were vital to development of broadcasting policy. The Report of the Royal Commission on Radio Broadcasting in 1929 and American broadcasting both changed the direction of Canadian broadcasting, but were mitigated by the early, largely unregulated years. Broadcasters operated initially as small, independent, and local broadcasters, then, national networks developed in stages during the 1920s and 1930s. The late adoption of radio broadcasting policy to build a national network in Canada allowed other practices to take root in the wake of other examples, in particular, American commercial broadcasting. By 1929 when the Aird Report recommended a national network, the potential impact of the report was shaped by the path of early broadcasting and the shifts forced on Canada by American broadcasting and policy. Eventually Canada forged its own course that pulled in both directions, permitting both private commercial networks and publi
