How do digital technologies shape both how people care for each other and, through that, who they are? With technological innovation is on the rise and increasing migration introducing vast distances between family members--a situation additionally complicated by the COVID-19 pandemic and the requirements of physical distancing, especially for the most vulnerable – older adults--this is a pertinent question. Through ethnographic fieldwork among families of migrating nurses from Kerala, India, Tanja Ahlin explores how digital technologies shape elder care when adult children and their aging parents live far apart. Coming from a country in which appropriate elder care is closely associated w...
Evangeline Phillips isn’t exactly a Grinch, but being estranged from her parents means Christmas is just another day for her. But when Evie meets her new neighbor—her hot, kind, and blessed-with-the-sexiest-accent-Evie-has-ever-heard neighbor—she thinks it might be just the thing to help her get past the holiday season. Annika Mayer isn’t really running away. But when there’s a job opening in the United States, it seems like the perfect time to leave Germany and start fresh, even if it’s only temporary. It’s just a pity that she’s missing out on the most important holiday: Christmas with her family. Fortunately, Annika’s cute new neighbor is exactly the distraction she needs. As their friendship and flirtation builds, Evie and Annika decide on an American-German Christmas mesh-up—they’ll share their Christmas traditions and make it through the season together. And as they plan their “Merry Weihnachten,” that flirtation starts to build into something more. But with so much standing between them and forever, Evie and Annika realize they might not get their gift-wrapped happy ending after all.

Die Vielzahl virulenter und drängender Konfliktlagen und Umwälzungen einer als krisenhaft erfahrenen Gegenwart erschüttert nicht nur das Theater und das gesamte Kunst- und Kulturleben, sondern tangiert auch die Zukunft der Disziplin Theaterwissenschaft.

Der vorliegende Band dokumentiert Beiträge des 15. Kongresses der Gesellschaft für Theaterwissenschaft und bietet einen Überblick darüber, welche Themen von Theaterwissenschaftler:innen aus Deutschland,...
Kehanette bulunmak cesaret ister. Zaman zaman televizyon izlencelerine de konu olur, kehanet. Geleceğe ilişkin yorumlarda bulunmak, değişimler ve yeniliklerle ilgili öngörülerde bulunmak gerçekten çok zor. Çünkü dünya çok hızlı dönüyor. Televizyon izlenceleri hatırlatmasını, TRT'de uzunca bir süre yayınlanan ve şu sıralar tekrarları çıkan “Seksenler” dizisine istinaden belirttim. Diziyi izlemek yeterli aslında. Çünkü 80'li yılların Türkiye'sini anlatıyor. O yıllarda yaşananlar, o yılların ürünleri, o yılların modası dizinin tümünde görülebilir. Öte taraftan dizide geleceğe dönük “46”lık lakaplı karakter de geleceğe ilişkin öng...
Die vielfältigen Beiträge des Bandes zum 34. Forum Junge Romanistik – mit dem für die Nachwuchstagung programmatischen Titel „Interaktion(en) – Brüche, Spuren, Konstruktionen“ – spiegeln die Vielfalt an Interaktionen auf unterschiedlichsten Ebenen wider, die in den verschiedenen Disziplinen (Sprach-, Literatur-, Medien-, Kulturwissenschaft und Fachdidaktik) der Romanistik und vor allem in ihrem Gegenstand, den unterschiedlichen Sprachen und vielfältigen Kulturen der Romania, zu Tage treten. Die Autorinnen und Autoren nehmen Bezug auf die Brüchen entspringende Produktivität und Kreativität, gehen den Spuren von Interaktionen aus diachroner bzw. historischer Perspektive nach und skizzieren ein Verständnis von Interaktion(en) als Konstruktion(en), das sowohl deren Prozesse und Ergebnisse zu beleuchten vermag, als auch den Anteil der jeweiligen Interaktionspartnerinnen und -partner. Mit Beiträgen von/avec des contributions de: Charlotte Coy, Martin Gärtner, Sophie Engelen, Jannis Harjus, Linda Harjus, Melanie Koch-Fröhlich, Florian Lützelberger, Annika Mayer, Lydia Momma, Vânia Morais, Hanna Nohe, Peter Reimer, Albert Wall
Answering the question of effectiveness of educational interventions is no easy task for a multitude of reasons. The effectiveness of an intervention depends not only on the intervention itself but also, for example, on the target group, the available infrastructure, the current legislation, the time of implementation or the expertise of the teachers. This special issue shows the diversity in the goals pursued and the interventions used to achieve them. It also shows methodological differences in effectiveness research and argues the need for nuanced interpretation and for explicitly considering the context for the intervention.
