Book Ein Leben F  r Die Wissenschaft

Download or read book Ein Leben F r Die Wissenschaft written by Salomo A. Birnbaum and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salomo A. Birnbaum (1891-1989) ist unbestrittener Pionier auf zwei großen, eng aufeinander bezogenen Forschungsgebieten, nämlich der historischen jiddischen Sprachwissenschaft sowie der Paläographie des Hebräischen und aller jüdischen Nachfolgesprachen: 1918 veröffentlichte er die erste wissenschaftliche Grammatik des Jiddischen (vier weitere Auflagen ab 1966); in den 20er Jahren begann er - ausgehend von dem Bedürfnis, mittelalterliche jiddische Manuskripte zu datieren und zu lokalisieren - mit seinen paläographischen Studien, die in dem Standardwerk The Hebrew Scripts (1954/57-1971) gipfelten und ihm zugleich ein weiteres Forschungsgebiet, die Vergleichung jüdischer Sprachen, eröffneten. Die vorliegende Aufsatzsammlung (teils Wiederabdrucke, teils nach bisher ungedruckten Manuskripten ediert) bildet nach Birnbaums eigenen Vorstellungen einen Querschnitt durch sein Lebenswerk. Bd. I enthält Beiträge zur jiddischen Philologie: Entstehung und Alter der Sprache, orthographische und lautliche Entwicklungen, Probleme der Umsetzung in Lateinschrift, Dialektologie, Etymologie u.a., ferner einen Überblick über die weiteren jüdischen Sprachen sowie umfangreiche Einzeluntersuchungen insbesondere zum Dzudezmo ('Jüdischspanischen') und zum Bucharischen ('Jüdischpersischen'). Die Beiträge in Bd. II dokumentieren die Entwicklung der sich etablierenden hebräischen Paläographie in den 30er bis 60er Jahren, wo Birnbaums quantitative und vergleichende Methoden sich vor allem seit 1947 an den damals aufgefundenen Schriftrollen vom Toten Meer, aber auch an Neufunden mittelalterlicher jiddischer Handschriften glänzend bewährten. Birnbaum lehrte von 1922 bis 1933 Jiddisch an der Universität Hamburg, von 1936 bis 1957 Jiddisch und hebräische Paläographie an Londoner universitären Instituten.

Book The Educated Subject and the German Concept of Bildung

Download or read book The Educated Subject and the German Concept of Bildung written by Rebekka Horlacher and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: German education plays a huge role in the development of education sciences and modern universities internationally. It is influenced by the educational concept of Bildung, which defines Germany ‘s theoretical and curricular ventures. This concept is famously untranslatable into other languages and is often misinterpreted as education, instruction, training, upbringing and other terms which don’t encompass its cultural ambitions. Despite this hurdle, Bildung is now being recognized in current discussions of education issues such as standardization, teaching to the test, evidence-based policy and high stakes testing. This volume clears up the confusion and misunderstandings surrounding Bildung by examining the origins of the concept and how it has been applied throughout history. It paves the way for educators to fully understand and benefit from this model and all it has to offer.

Book An Introduction to Sociolinguistics

Download or read book An Introduction to Sociolinguistics written by Ronald Wardhaugh and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-04-21 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AN INTRODUCTION TO SOCIOLINGUISTICS The new eighth edition of An Introduction to Sociolinguistics brings this valuable, bestselling textbook up to date with the latest in sociolinguistic research and pedagogy, providing a broad overview of the study of language in social context with accessible coverage of major concepts, theories, methods, issues, and debates within the field. This leading text helps students develop a critical perspective on language in society as they explore the complex connections between societal norms and language use. The eighth edition contains new and updated coverage of such topics as the societal aspects of African American Vernacular English (AAVE), multilingual societies and discourse, gender and sexuality, ideologies and language attitudes, and the social meanings of linguistic forms. Organized in four sections, this text first covers traditional language issues such as the distinction between languages and dialects, identification of regional and social variation within languages, and the role of context in language use and interpretation. Subsequent chapters cover approaches to research in sociolinguistics—variationist sociolinguistics, ethnography, and discourse analytic research—and address both macro– and micro-sociolinguistic aspects of multilingualism in national, transnational, global, and digital contexts. The concluding section of the text looks at language in relation to gender and sexuality, education, and language planning and policy issues. Featuring examples from a variety of languages and cultures that illustrate topics such as social and regional dialects, multilingualism, and the linguistic construction of identity, this text provides perspectives on both new and foundational research in sociolinguistics and linguistic anthropology. An Introduction to Sociolinguistics, Eighth Edition, remains the ideal textbook for upper-level undergraduate and graduate course in sociolinguistics, language and society, linguistic anthropology, applied and theoretical linguistics, and education. The new edition has also been updated to support classroom application with a range of effective pedagogical tools, including end-of-chapter written exercises and an instructor website, as well as materials to support further learning such as reading suggestions, research ideas, and an updated companion student website containing a searchable glossary, a review guide, additional exercises and examples, and links to online resources.
