The Representation of REFUGEES and MIGRANTS in European National Media Discourses from 2015 to 2017
Though the refugee crisis was discussed in many countries e.g. in Greece, Hungary, Italy and Spain long before 2015, it began to receive cross- European press coverage only after Angela Merkel’s statement ‘Wir schaffen das!’ on the August 30th 2015 This data-based study focuses on, how journalists report on and leading politicians make statements about refugees, migrants and asylum seekers in media and frame these humans after Angela Merkels’ sentence in 2015 until the end of 2017. This volume uses mainly Corpus Linguistics but also Communicative Science for the analysis of labelling strategies and the usage of words, collocations and grammar systems used by journalists and politicians in different European countries in comparison.

To enable a contrastive study between the press discourses of many European countries, every chapter analyses the data consisting of newspaper articles describing the discourse of a particular country, including discourses of some transit countries around the borders of the Schengen Area of the European Union, which barely have been covered in other studies.
Border Poetics in German and Polish Literature
Examines how contemporary German and Polish novels reimagine borderlands as cosmopolitan spaces by engaging in border poetics, a narrative practice that relates political borders to figurative boundaries.Globalization notwithstanding, we live in an age of borders, as the ongoing conflict at Europe's eastern edge reminds us.

Mit Humor ist nicht immer zu spaßen
Dieser Sammelband liefert facettenreiche Ein- und Überblicke zur Humorforschung z.B. aus der Diskurs- oder Textlinguistik. Es kommen unterschiedliche Dimensionen des vielschichtigen Humorphänomens zum Tragen, u.a. dessen Mechanismen, Einsatz und Wirkung. Sein besonderes Verdienst liegt jedoch darin, das bereits Bekannte um neue Dimensionen zu erweitern oder im neuen Lichte darzustellen. Als Ergebnis erhalten die Leser:innen daher keine erschöpfende Darstellung von Humorerscheinungen, sondern stattdessen eine anschauliche Vermittlung eines Phänomens, das in vielen (Kon-)Texten tief verankert ist und einen unabdingbaren Teil des gesellschaftlichen Lebens darstellt.
