The Semantics of Derivational Morphology
This volume brings together cutting-edge research on the semantic properties of derived words and the processes by which these words are derived. To this day, many of these processes remain under-researched and the nature of meaning in derivational morphology remains ill-understood. All eight articles have an empirical focus and rely on carefully collected sets of data. At the same time, the contributions represent a broad variety of approaches. Several contributions deal with specific problems of the pairing of form and meaning, such as the rivalry between nominalizing suffixes or the semantic categories encoded by conversion pairs. Other articles tackle the more general question of how meaning is organized, e.g. whether there is evidence for the paradigmatic organization of derived words or the reality of the inflection-derivation dichotomy. The contributions feature innovative methodologies, such as representing lexical meaning as word distribution or predicting semantic properties by means of analogical algorithms. This volume offers new and highly interesting insights into how complex words mean, and offers directions for future research in an oft-neglected field.

La Signora Morgerstern e il male
"Non sempre la legge è giusta. Quindi ho fatto giustizia spingendolo sotto il treno." Legge e giustizia non sono la stessa cosa, ne è convinta l'insegnante in pensione Violetta Morgenstern. Ecco perché ha trovato un modo originale di passare il tempo libero: uccidere i malfattori in modi creativi. Ed è così brava nel suo hobby che riceve una misteriosa e irrinunciabile offerta da una speciale unità dei servizi segreti svizzeri, la Tell: dovrà compiere omicidi su commissione. Violetta, affiancata da Miguel, esperto collaboratore, avrà bisogno di tutto il suo sangue freddo e capacità di improvvisazione per liberare il mondo da un oscuro criminale che si diverte a seminare delitti.
Musikalische Bildung im Alter
Die prosperierende Disziplin Musikgeragogik verzeichnet eine zunehmende Dynamik hinsichtlich theoretischer und interdisziplinärer Diskurse sowie neuer und innovativer Projekte. Dieses Buch gibt einen Einblick in diese Entwicklungen, die sich in grundlegenden Reflexionen, institutionellen und konzeptionellen Neuerungen und in konkreten Praxisprojekten manifestieren. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei immer die Musik als Kulturgut, zu der älteren Menschen ein Zugang ermöglicht werden soll. Dabei geht es jedoch nicht um einen festen, für die Zielgruppe geeignet erscheinenden Kanon, sondern um die vielfältigen Beziehungen zwischen alten Menschen und Musik und um die Begegnung und Auseinandersetzung mit Neuem.

Lana and Lilly Wachowski
Lana and Lilly Wachowski have redefined the technically and topically possible while joyfully defying audience expectations. Visionary films like The Matrix trilogy and Cloud Atlas have made them the world's most influential transgender media producers, and their coming out retroactively put trans* aesthetics at the very center of popular American culture. Cáel M. Keegan views the Wachowskis' films as an approach to trans* experience that maps a transgender journey and the promise we might learn "to sense beyond the limits of the given world." Keegan reveals how the filmmakers take up the relationship between identity and coding (be it computers or genes), inheritance and belonging, and how transgender becoming connects to a utopian vision of a post-racial order. Along the way, he theorizes a trans* aesthetic that explores the plasticity of cinema to create new social worlds, new temporalities, and new sensory inputs and outputs. Film comes to disrupt, rearrange, and evolve the cinematic exchange with the senses in the same manner that trans* disrupts, rearranges, and evolves discrete genders and sexes.
