WRILAB2
Wrilab2', an "On-line reading and writing laboratory for Czech, German, Italian and Slovenian as L2" intends to cover a gap in the training provisions devoted to functional writing in Czech, German, Italian and Slovenian as L2. The current volume addresses the needs of university and secondary school teachers and aims at offering them both the state of the art of current research related to important issues in the field of teaching and learning L2 writing and a practical guideline to the four language sections of the Wrilab2 portal.
A Crimson Line to the Bright Horizon
Fereshte Teyfouri's writings focussing on Sufi thought and mystical concepts are presented with the original Persian texts and an English translation to introduce her poignant view of existence to a wider audience. The poetic miniatures muse on existentialist concepts, stemming from the perspective of her life in Iran and later Germany - and a visceral sense of not belonging - but with the dilemmas of alienation and displacement counterbalanced by the sentiments being expressed using Sufi terms, but sometimes from the standpoint of inanimate objects: tar, blotting paper, the cleansing nature of an eraser. Fereshte Teyfouri, lecturer in Persian at the Westfalische Wilhelms-Universitat, Munster, Persian author and editor, translator for the German courts. Natalie H. Shokoohy (translator) architectural historian.
Strict Negative Concord in Slavic and Finno-Ugric
Expressing negation is a universal property of all human languages. There is considerable variation, however, in the exact ways negation materializes cross-linguistically. Strict Negative Concord differs both from the Negative Polarity Item strategy and the Asymmetric Negative Concord strategy in that the sentence becomes negative only if the sentence negator is overtly expressed in it, irrespective of how many negative expressions are used. The central aim of this book is to describe Strict Negative Concord in some Slavic and Finno-Ugric languages. In particular, the volume gives an insight into the forms Strict Negative Concord manifests itself in Russian, Polish, Czech, Slovenian (Slavic), Finnish, Hungarian, Mari (Finno-Ugric) and the closely related Selkup (Samoyedic) to a wide linguistic community. It aims to create a platform for comparison with similar phenomena in well-described European languages.
Bibliographie Linguistique de L'annee 1999
Setting out the historical national and religious characteristics of the Italians as they impact on the integration within the European Union, this study makes note of the two characteristics that have an adverse effect on Italian national identity: cleavages between north and south and the dominant role of family. It discusses how for Italians family loyalty is stronger than any other allegiance, including feelings towards their country, their nation, or the EU. Due to such subnational allegiances and values, this book notes that Italian civic society is weaker and engagement at the grass roots is less robust than one finds in other democracies, leaving politics in Italy largely in the hands of political parties. The work concludes by noting that EU membership, however, provides no magic bullet for Italy: it cannot change internal cleavages, the Italian worldview, and family values or the country’s mafia-dominated power matrix, and as a result, the underlying absence of fidelity to a shared polity—Italian or European—leave the country as ungovernable as ever.

Non-Interrogative Subordinate Wh-Clauses
This volume examines subordinate wh-clauses that lack an interrogative interpretation, particularly those in which the wh-word seems to deviate from its literal meaning. These include subordinate manner wh-clauses that have a declarative-like meaning, locative wh-clauses expressing kinds, and headed relatives that serve as recognitional cues, among many others. While regular interrogative embedding has been widely studied in recent years, little is known about the circumstances under which non-interrogative (subordinate) wh-clauses are licensed, nor why some, but not all, wh-phrases can be polyfunctional. The chapters in the book combine the study of cross-linguistic variation in patterns of...
Studi contrastivi di linguistica slava: grammatica e pragmatica
Il volume contiene gli scritti linguistici di Andrea Trovesi, finora sparsi in varie riviste e miscellanee, caratterizzati tutti da un approccio pragmatico. Nella prima parte sono raccolti gli studi sul vocativo slavo, condotti in un’ottica storico-comparata che va dal protoslavo alle lingue slave moderne. Questi si concentrano in particolare sulle trasformazioni categoriali del vocativo, sui suoi relitti, sui cosiddetti ‘nuovi vocativi’ e sui valori pragmatici sviluppati nelle varie lingue slave. La seconda parte del volume è dedicata alle accezioni modali dell’imperfetto in un’ottica contrastiva slavo-romanza. La ricerca privilegia il bulgaro, ma non tralascia le altre lingue slave di cui analizza interessanti aspetti residuali, periferici di tale uso linguistico. Entrambi i filoni di studi qui presentati si distinguono per la loro originalità e per il loro valore teorico considerato in una prospettiva che dalla linguistica slava si apre a quella più ampia della linguistica in quanto scienza del linguaggio.
