Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Essay from the year 2009 in the subject Politics - Region: Australia, New Zealand, grade: 62% pass = deutsche 3, University of Queensland, course: AUST 6100 Masters Level, language: English, abstract: Walter (1992) states in his essay ¿Defining Australiä that the question what the ¿real¿ Australia is will never be solved but that there exist and keep arising different ideas about it. These various cultural productions have to be questioned as to who produces them and which purposes they serve. National identity creates unity among people in the sense of Benedict Anderson¿s ¿imagined communities¿. Members believe in a set of things about what being Australian includes and excludes. National celebrations as for example Australia Day, the proclamation of Commonwealth or Anzac Day are different media guided events on which Australians are held to feel a ¿collective Australian consciousness¿ (7). Nevertheless, opposing ideas are put under the same national persuasive ¿cloche¿ in order to make differences forgotten. An effective tool to create this nationhood has been myth-making in order to link Australians to a self-picture and ¿transcend contemporary divisions¿ (16). …

Therefore the magazine offers a long history of being, also advertising, medium for ideas, opinions and reflections about feminity. The subject matter and advertisement the magazine addresses its readers with constitutes the fields of interest those women might be attracted towards. At the same time it excludes certain fields of female interest. In this research essay I will examine how feminity is constructed in 'The Australian Women's Weekly' from three different time periods by having a closer look at the fields of 'The Domestic Sphere', 'Beauty and the Body', and 'Progression of the Self'. I will have a look at the construction of the domestic sphere portrayed as being an inherent responsibility and centre of female existence. Are broader political and social topics addressed; and in what way How is women's position in society understood Furthermore, I will ask how the depicted ideal feminity is linked to body looks and sexuality. In a third step I will examine the emphasis put on inspiration as being an integral part of feminity. What functions are served by the printing of celebrity life stories, the responses of 'agony aunts' and romantic fiction The investigation of editions from 1962, 1982 and 2009 will focus on whether and how ideologies of feminity have changed during the decades and if there can be detected certain recurring ideological fragments. Does the representation of maternity and Australianess evolve during the decades In what way do these magazines adjust to changing reader's needs Which female ideologies are we facing today. …

With help of the queries I will find out how many of these constructions exist in The Penn Treebank and then take a closer look at the beginning of sentences. Which of these two grammatical phenomenon is more frequent at the beginnings of sentences and why Firstly in this term paper, I will introduce the grammatical phenomenon of the passive voice with its variants 'be-passive', 'get-passive' and 'bare passive' by contrasting it to the active voice. Furthermore I will explain the development of the different queries needed for the research whose findings will be discussed subsequent to that.…

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Pedagogy - School Pedagogics, grade: 75%=deutsche 2, University of Queensland, course: EDUC7002 Behavioural Support in Schools, language: English, abstract: The approach I suggest here for schools eager to reduce bullying on the system level constitutes a whole-school approach. Such an approach should inform, obligate and mobilise. In order to reach out to all sections composing the school life that is, students, parents and all staff, and involve those into the approach a school wide policy is needed to proclaim the schools stand on the problem and provide principles and guidelines about how to address the problem. Rigby (2003) suggests that the policy should be 'widely disseminated' (p. 28) in order to reach at best everyone involved with the school. Furthermore, parents who are not that fluent in speaking the English language should have access to translated versions of the policy (p. 28). This whole school approach, furthermore, has to be acted out on the group and individual level in order to fulfil its purpose. Teachers can use cooperative learning as a means to reduce bullying by building interpersonal relationships in everyday class. This approach to learning supports the idea of students working together on a shared task in small groups. In contrast to normal group work cooperative learning binds the members of a group together through the task solving process which can only be maintained as a team. This shared responsibility between the team members should be understood as 'positive interdependence' (Gillies, 2003, p. 37). To continue the whole school approach on the individual level there are several options for teachers and staff. It should be the main aim to help victims as well as bullies. The 'No-Blame Approach' suggested by Rigby and Thomas (2003) can be used to mediate between the two parties by interviewing them separately.…

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2010 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,3, University of Münster (Englisches Seminar), course: Psycholinguistics, language: English, abstract: Fossilization is commonly described in SLA literature as a 'phenomenon of non-progression of learning despite continuous exposure to input, adequate motivation to learn, and sufficient opportunity for practice' (Han 13). The Question behind this notion is: Are adults able to ever acquire native-like competence in an L2 And if some learners are, what does this mean with respect to a majority of learners who seem not to be (cf. Han 13) This bifurcation of possible outcomes in learning a second language is mirrored in the large variety of terms used to describe the concept of 'fossilization'. Among others, it is described 'as 'virtual halt', 'linguistic monstrosities', 'plateau', 'rigor mortis', 'stopping short', 'fossilized variation', 'permanent optionality', 'siesta' [and] 'endstate''(Han 13 - 14). Such a range of labels reveals differing conceptual ideas about the topic's nature concerning its powers of spread within the learner's interlanguage, its finitude, reoccurring continuation and inevitableness. The terms 'linguistic monstrosities' and 'fossilized variation' rather hint at only parts of the interlanguage being affected by fossilization as opposed to the notion of a completely 'fossilized interlanguage'. The term 'virtual halt' supports this idea that while some aspects seem to be fossilized others might continue to develop. Whereas the terms 'rigor mortis' and 'endstate' convey an understanding of fossilization's lethal and final everlastingness prohibiting any further linguistic development whatsoever, the terms 'siesta', 'plateau' and 'permanent optionality' ,on the other hand, consider the concept to be negotiable in some sense holding an option of resuming linguistic development.In this paper I will very briefly outline some of the major stopping points in the more than three-decade evolution of the concept 'fossilization' and illustrate key conceptional issues. Relating to these difficulties I will look at recent voices who express the need for more comprehensive empirical research and rethinking of hitherto approaches and convictions. In doing so, the focus will also be on fossilization in relation to second language instruction. …

Since that time, Native Americans have been externally conceptualized in various forms, as for example in form of the 'noble savage' or the 'vicious savage', and almost never as having a sense of humor (Gruber 142). Humor in connection with Native American characters has among other reasons been avoided by image makers for it would have allowed recipients to identify with such human characteristics (Gruber 7). This would have meant to invalidate a powerful colonial 'casting mold' for dehuminazing stereotypical images about Nativeness. This hegemonic tool proves to be the most enduring one of colonization by replacing guns and troops (Gruber 157) with occupied Non-Native minds. Filmic representation perpetuated these distorted ideas about Native Americans further by drawing on those widespread clichés and inventing new ones (Gruber 142; Mihelich 130), as for example the Native American 'ecologist' (Cornell 109) or the spiritual 'shaman' living in absolute piece with nature. Thus, till today Native Americans are confronted with the task of dealing with biased images of themselves which are externally imposed on them by the surrounding dominance of Non-Native societies and discourses.In this paper I will discuss how Native filmmakers Chris Eyre and Sherman Alexie effectively use just this powerful genre of popular culture to tackle habituated representations of Native Americans and offer Native versions of Nativeness. In Smoke Signals (1998) they rework and transform existing stereotypes by creating a meta level on which the powerful mechanism of image making is exposed. This meta level can be established through the use of humor (Gruber 35).I will fill a desideratum in this context by breaking the concept of 'humor' down into its single aspects and then applying those to humorous material in Smoke Signals whereby distilling various strategies, not only the means for survival, which are used to pursue the subversive aim. In a structural approach I will have a closer look at which aspects of humor are actually used and what kinds of strategies originate from them considering a mixed audience consisting of Native as well as Non-Native viewers.…

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Familie, Frauen, Männer, Sexualität, Geschlechter, Note: 1,0, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, Veranstaltung: Zur Zukunft der Familie, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Nach den Entwicklungen der Rechtslage homosexueller Personen, ausgehend von staatlicher und gesellschaftlicher Diskriminierung über Tolerierung der Homosexualität, hin zur rechtlichen und gesell-schaftlichen Akzeptanz (Rijsbergen 2005: 90) mit dem Trend zur weiteren Angleichung (Maier 2009: 198), drängt sich ein Blick in die Zukunft auf. Angelehnt an Pierre Bourdieus Kapitaltheorie lässt sich fragen, mit welchem und wie gewertetem Kapital homosexuelle Personen bzw. gleichgeschlechtliche Beziehungen ohne und mit Kindern zukünftig am Spiel des Lebens teilnehmen könnten. Könnten homosexuelle Personen, Paare und Familien bezüglich ihres sozialen, kulturellen und ökonomischen Auftretens wegweisend, ja sogar Vorbilder, für die zukünftige Gesellschaft sein Im Folgenden werde ich zunächst auf das soziale, das kulturelle und das ökonomische Kapital von homosexuellen Einzelpersonen eingehen. In einem zweiten Schritt wird die Beziehungs- bzw. Familiengestaltung von gleichgeschlechtlichen Partnerschaften ohne und mit Kindern im Vordergrund stehen. …

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Literaturgeschichte, Epochen, Note: 1,8, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster (Germanistisches Institut), Veranstaltung: Hartes Pflaster. Flanerie, Asphaltfilm und Straßenfotografie in der Weimarer Republik, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Der Begriff 'Asphalt' und seine Verwendung haben eine in der Geschichte weit zurückreichende Entstehens- bzw. Entwicklungsgeschichte. Das wohl prägendste Kapitel ist seine ideologische Instrumentalisierung durch die nationalsozialistische Propaganda gegen jüdische Großstadtintellektuelle und das Intellektuellentum an sich. Auch heute noch verbinden sich mit dem Wort 'Asphalt' oftmals verschiedenartige Assoziationen - von Großstadtfaszination und - reiz über Skepsis gegenüber einem gleichmachenden, allgegenwärtigen Erscheinungsbild bis hin zu völliger Ablehnung einer als 'Leben erdrückend', 'Schmutz aufzeigend', 'verkommen' und 'kalt' verstandenen Lebenswelt.Schauplatz für die verschiedenen Auseinandersetzungen mit dem Einfluss des 'Asphalts' und der 'Großstadt' soll im Folgenden die Stadt Berlin sein, die sich von der Reichsgründung bis zu Beginn des zweiten Weltkriegs zu einer kosmopolitischen Metropole entwickelte. Die Anfänge einer Asphaltliteratur, gegen welche sich die Rechten später wenden sollten, sind in dieser Zeit zu finden. Naturalistische und expressionistische Schriftsteller/innen thematisieren den 'Asphalt' und die Lebensbedingungen in der Großstadt Berlin auf vielfältige differenzierte Weise. Die metaphorische Verwendung des Ur - Motivs 'Asphalt' soll im Folgenden am Beispiel von Julius Hart, Oskar Loerke, Paul Boldt, Johannes R. Becher und Hans Janowitz aufgezeigt werden.Diese konzentrierte Beschäftigung mit der Großstadt stand nach dem ersten Weltkrieg mehr und mehr in einem Spannungsfeld zu ländlicheren Gegenden, welche die neueren Entwicklungen in Berlin mit Argwohn betrachteten oder betrachten sollten. Die Polemik des Wegbereiters Wilhelm Stapel und später die Propaganda Goebbels sorgten für eine Polarisierung zwischen Berlin und der Provinz, welche mit ideologisch aufgeladenen Begriffspaaren wie Asphalt - Scholle oder wurzellos - bodenständig einherging. Der 'Asphalt' und die 'Großstadt' wurden zu Kampfbegriffen im Ringen um die geistige 'Besetzung' Berlins. Grundpfeiler dieses Vokabulars waren eine ausgeprägte Großstadtfeindschaft, Intellektuellenhass und Antisemitismus. Zur Folge hatte diese Hatz nicht nur die Diffamierung der Asphaltliterat(inn)en und besonders der jüdischen Großstadtintellektuellen. Zu Beginn des Jahres 1933 sollten die Werke jener Autor(inn)en zunächst durch eine 'Schwarze Liste' gebannt und kurz darauf auf dem Scheiterhaufen der Nationalsozialisten verbrannt werden. …

Neuware - Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Neuere Deutsche Literatur, einseitig bedruckt, Note: 2,0, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster (Germanistisches Institut), Veranstaltung: Seminar: Subjekt - Bildung - Institution. Goethes Wilhelm Meister, 5 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Einleitung Das Marionettentheater weckt bei vielen Menschen lebhafte Erinnerungen an ihre Kindheit, an ganze Nachmittage, die man mit den Puppen zubrachte, um, zusammen mit Freunden, das ein oder andere kleine Stück für die Familie aufzuführen. In diesem unschuldigen Rahmen konnte, vom Teufel über den Polizisten bis hin zur Prinzessin, jede beliebige Identität angenommen und durchgespielt werden. Oftmals zögerte man nicht, sich selbst zur Puppe zu machen und mit vollem Körpereinsatz eine eigene Darbietung der Figur zu liefern. In der Zeit der Aufklärung, des naturwissenschaftlichen und technischen Fortschritts, der Bildung eines neuen Bürgertums und des Individuums an sich, spielte das Marionettentheater eine besondere Rolle. Durch die verschiedenen, teilweise paradoxen, kulturellen Erscheinungen des 18. Jahrhunderts , begegneten dem damals vorherrschenden Weltbild oft gegenläufige Ansichten. Der Körper und Bildungsdiskurs der Aufklärung wirft bezüglich der Marionetten die Frage auf, wer anmutiger sein kann der Mensch oder die Marionette Außerdem kann gefragt werden, inwieweit die aufklärerischen Ideologien der Gesellschaft den Menschen selbst zur Marionette machen. Im Folgenden soll versucht werden, die Einflüsse dieser Zeit auf das Marionettentheater und die daraus resultierende Funktion in der Gesellschaft zu erläutern. Für einen intertextuellen Vergleich dienen als Primärtexte Johann Wolfgang von Goethes Bildungsroman Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre und Heinrich von Kleists Über das Marionettentheater .…
