-Few people are aware that in the aftermath of German and Soviet invasions and division of Poland, more than 1.5 million people were deported from their homes in Eastern Poland to remote parts of Russia. Half of them died in labor camps and prisons or simply vanished, some were drafted into the Russian army, and a small number returned to Poland after the war. Those who made it out of Russia alive were lucky--and nine-year-old Krystyna Mihulka was among them. In this childhood memoir, Mihulka tells of her family's deportation, under cover of darkness and at gunpoint, and their life as prisoners on a Soviet communal farm in Kazakhstan, where they endured starvation and illness and witnessed death for more than two years. This untold history is revealed through the eyes of a young girl struggling to survive and to understand the increasingly harsh world in which she finds herself---

Becoming Emily

Emily Dickinson wrote short, often enigmatic poems that are widely read and quoted by people of every age. Yet, as well known as her poetry is, Dickinson as a person is considered to have been a mysterious recluse—a silent figure who wore only white, wrote in secret, never left her home, and had no interest in sharing her poetry. In Becoming Emily, young readers will learn how as a child, an adolescent, and well into adulthood, Dickinson was a lively social being with a warm family life. Highly educated for a girl of her era, she actively engaged in both the academic and social aspects of the schools she attended until she was nearly eighteen. Her family and friends were important to her, and she was a prolific, thoughtful, and witty correspondent who shared many poems with her closest friends and relatives. This indispensable resource includes photos, full-length poems, letter excerpts, a time line, source notes, and a bibliography to present a vivid portrait of this singular American poet.

  • Publisher: V&R unipress

Kooperationsforschung ist ein multidisziplinärer und internationaler Forschungszweig, dessen Komplexität sich auch in der Vielzahl und Diversität präsenzieller, digitaler und hybrider Austauschformate widerspiegelt. Zu denken ist hierbei u.a. an Schüler*innenaustausch, Studierendenmobilität, Praxiserkundungsprojekte, Lehr- und Forschungskooperationen und verschiedene Formate von »internationalization at home«. Der vorliegende Band liefert eine Bestandsaufnahme der Erforschung internationaler Bildungskooperationen und -mobilitäten im Bereich DaF und greift dabei Untersuchungsgegenstände wie die Interaktionsgestaltung und die Aneignung kommunikativer und kulturreflexiver Kompetenzen, den reflektierten Medien- und Methodeneinsatz in Austauschbegegnungen sowie kultur-, sprach- und bildungspolitische Diskussionen auf. Auch interdisziplinäre Fragestellungen wie das Zusammenspiel von sprachlichem und fachlichem Lernen in fächerübergreifenden Bildungsprojekten und die Professionalisierung von Lehrkräften werden thematisiert.

  • Publisher: V&R unipress

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.

The Dark Unwinding

From the award-winning author of Rook comes a delicious and twisty tale, filled with spine-tingling intrigue, juicy romance, and dangerous family secrets. When a rumor that her uncle is squandering away the family fortune surfaces, Katharine Tulman is sent to his estate to have him committed to an asylum. But instead of a lunatic, Katharine discovers a genius inventor with his own set of childlike rules, who is employing a village of nine hundred people rescued from the workhouses of London. Katharine becomes torn between protecting her own livelihood and preserving the peculiar community she grows to care for deeply -- a conflict made more complicated by her developing feelings for her uncle's handsome apprentice. As the mysteries of the estate begin to unravel, it is clear that not only is her uncle's world at stake, but also the state of England as Katharine knows it. With twists and turns at every corner, this extraordinary adventure will captivate readers with its thrills and romance.
