Gelebte Mehrsprachigkeit im Plattenbau : Untersuchungen von Narrativen und Praktiken russlanddeutscher junger Erwachsener
- 2018
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis focuses on the lived multilingualism of a group of young Russian-German adults who as children migrated together with their families from post-Soviet states to the Federal Republic of Germany during the 1990s. Today these adults live in a ‘Plattenbau’ housing estate in a small town in one of the new federal states of Germany. The large pre-fabricated concrete-slab system-built housing estates that were built during the GDR-era are today generally considered as deprived areas due a combination of decreasing population and high unemployment.This thesis shows how young Russian-Germans create a multilingual community of practice and use various aspects of language and non-linguistic resources for identity construction. The data analysed in this thesis comes from ethnographic studies conducted during three phases of fieldwork between Spring 2011 and Spring 2012. The data was collected at a youth centre where the group of young Russian-German adults regularly met.Combining intensive participant observation, field notes, photos, and narrative interviews the thesis is a mixed-method investigation. Underpinning the analysis of the research data are theoretical models of the relationship between language, identity, and space. Methodologically this study combines linguistic ethnography, narrative analysis, and membership categorization analysis.The thesis argues that an ethnographical-narrative approach is a powerful tool that is able to highlight the role of language(s) and non-linguistic resources for identity construction in social spaces, illustrates how young Russian-Germans construct a web of multilingual identities by using social categories to position themselves and others, and shows how the lived multilingualism of young Russian-German adults influences all aspects of their social lives. For example, the thesis shows the maintenance of Russian as a heritage language within Russian-German families, yet and an avoidance of visible signs of the Russian-German heritage in public spaces.

Das präteritale Konzept im Frühneuhochdeutschen : Zur Distribution von Präteritum und präteritalem Perfekt in Flugschriften des 16. Jahrhunderts
- 2013
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis addresses the decline of the preterite tense, referred to as der Oberdeutsche Präteritumschwund (Upper German Preterite Loss), in favour of the present perfect tense. Its main focus is to examine and compare the distribution of the two tenses. The present work combines synchronic and diachronic perspectives in order to provide a thorough account of the process of change; special attention is paid to the development of the present perfect and its different readings. The historical change in the German verbal system – the possibility of using the present perfect instead of the preterite – is a very noticeable feature of Early High German. This change gave the German verbal system two possibilities of expressing states of affairs with the same time reference.According to this study, the present perfect is a polyfunctional category carrying not only the perfect but also the preterite reading, which can express the same semantics as the preterite: E,Rth century. The analysis is based on a text corpus containing forty political pamphlets belonging to different text types from the period 1509-1552 and considers the distribution of the two tenses according to verbal lexeme, situation type, inflectional class, voice, person, sentence type and the presence of temporal adverbials. Some textual-based factors are also studied.Although the preterite is gradually being replaced by the present perfect, it is the preferred tense for the expression of E,Rsprechen and with the temporal adverb da/do (especially in combination with each other), in temporal clauses (particularly when initiated by da/do and als), in clauses of result and in clauses with modal verbs. High proportions of present perfect verb phrases with preterite readings correlate with second-person subjects, interrogative sentences and adverbials with calendar references. While the preterite is the pure narrative tense, the textual analysis also shows that the proportion of present perfect verb phrases are higher at the beginning of texts and when historical events are being interpreted, evaluated and judged.

Andreas Gryphius’ Sonette : Eine Interpunktionsgeschichte
- 2018

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht die Versionen der 29 Sonette von Andreas Gryphius (1616–1664), die in allen der zu seinen Lebzeiten erschienenen Drucke vorliegen. Drei Aspekte der Gedichte werden im Sinne eines erweiterten Interpunktionsbegriffs berücksichtigt: Die Sonettgraphie und Seitengestaltung, die Interpunktionszeichen und die Hervorhebung durch Großschreibung.Die Interpunktion der Sonette wurde ständig revidiert, und es lassen sich bedeutende Unterschiede feststellen. Wer dafür verantwortlich war – der Dichter oder die verschiedenen Buchdrucker – lässt sich mit letzter Sicherheit nicht entscheiden. Doch ist wahrscheinlich, dass den Buchdruckern größere Bedeutung für die Gestaltung der Interpunktion zuzumessen ist als dem Autor selbst.Die Analysen machen auch deutlich, wie sich die Unterschiede in der Interpunktion auf die Interpretation der Sonette auswirken.
