Reynard the Fox

"A collection of folktales at their absolute best" (Elizabeth Bird, SLJ.com) about a legendary scoundrel, brought to new life through Renate Raecke's lively retelling and Jonas Lauströer's expressive illustrations. Reynard the Fox has been a staple trickster character of European literature since at least the Middle Ages. The tales of his schemes have been told many times, and he always manages to win readers' sympathies. Reynard is a rascal, a ne'er-do-well. While we may suffer from his pranks, at the same time we smile at the shrewd thinking through which he escapes hopeless situations. In this expertly retold version, the classic tales of Reynard's exploits find a new life. They speak to us now as much as ever, for who among us doesn't know a Reynard-like figure in our lives?

In this book, Gaby Thomson-Wohlgemuth explores the effects of ideology on the English-to-German translation of children’s literature under the socialist regime of the former German Democratic Republic. Giving prominence to extra-textual factors, the study undertakes a close investigation of the East German censorship machinery, showing that there was a close correlation between the socialist ideology propagated by the regime and the book selection process itself. Through an analysis of the contents of the print permit (censorship) files and the afterwords found in many books, Thomson-Wohlgemuth demonstrates that literature was re-written not only to placate the censor but also to directly ...

Dil Kültür ve Eğitim

Dil ile yazın, kültürbilimin alt dallarından bazılarıdır. Eğitim konusu ise, Dodorer(1992)'in de belirttiği gibi tüm bunların içeriğinde zaten varolan bir elementtir. Dolayısıyla bu çalışmada yer yer birbirinden farklı görülebilecek incelemeler, aslında kültürbilim ve eğitimle bir şekilde ilintilidir. Konuların daha çok ard bağlamını oluşturan düşünsel dayanakların incelenerek yorumlanmasına çalışılmıştır.
