Relationships in Organized Helping
This edited volume offers up-to-date research on the interactive building and managing of relationships in organized helping. Its contributions address this core of helping in psychotherapy, coaching, doctor-patient interaction, and digital helping interaction and document and analyze essential communicative practices of relationship management. A summarizing contribution identifies common dimensions of relationship management across the different helping contexts and thereby provides a framework for understanding and researching how interactive practices and helping relationships are interconnected. The volume brings together researchers and practitioners and merges academic approaches to studying relationships with practical knowledge about verbal helping in these settings. The book is intended for scholars in the field of organized helping as well as for students and researchers of communication and discourse / conversation analysis in professional and organized contexts. It is also addressed to practitioners interested in learning more about the micro- and meso-management of their working relationships.
Preparing for Death, Remembering the Dead
Death and dying were not in the main focus of the denominational conflicts of the 16th century. However, pious literature covered these topics again and again, not only before the Reformation, but after it as well. Here, certain denominational differences are clearly visible. Partly, these differences consist in the use of genres: For example, funeral sermons are an often used genre among Lutherans, while they are much rarer in the Reformed tradition. Similar differences can be observed concerning epitaphs. In Roman Catholic areas, funeral sermons and epitaphs are common in the 16th century, too; but their religious function is often a different from the one in Lutheranism. Beyond such inter...
Tannenhocker
In dem glamourösen Ort Burgberg, ein Vorort der Hauptstadt Lechen, wird ein grausamer Doppelmord entdeckt. Was liegt näher, als den verschwiegenen Hauptkommissar Karl Tannenhocker mit der Aufklärung des verzwickten Falls zu beauftragen. Die maßgeblichen Akteure in dieser reichen und äußerst prominenten Gemeinde können öffentliches Aufsehen bei ihren Geschäften so gar nicht gebrauchen. Wie gut, dass Karl Tannenhocker in seinem Team nicht nur als großer Schweiger gilt, sondern im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes gar nicht spricht. Und deshalb nehmen die Ermittlungen überhaupt nicht den gewünschten Verlauf. Der Autor verbindet wie in seinen zwei bereits erschienenen Büchern viele phantasievolle Biografien von skurrilen Akteuren zu einem spannenden und höchst humorvollen Kriminalroman; diesmal in dem fiktiven Prominenten-Ort Burgberg. Erneut machen die vielen, höchst amüsant beschriebenen Charakterskizzen diese überaus spannende Geschichte zu einer sehr besonderen Erzählung.
Handbook of Management Communication
Management communication encompasses a wide range of practices that define modern organizations. Those practices are, in many respects, constituted, formed and contextualized by the use of language. This handbook traces the theoretical modelling of these practices by contemporary research. It explores their linguistic features and performance in specific situations of value creation and in various modes. It is a companion for students and scholars of applied linguistics and organizational communication as well as management and strategy research.
Emotion in Language
The miracle of children's language development and the joy of expressive language on the one hand and the vulnerability of language and the sorrow and grief caused by its distortion or even loss in people with aphasia or dementia on the other hand show us the inseparability of emotion and language in its extremes. Although the ‘emotional turn’ promised a paradigmatic shift from a rationalistic towards an emotion-integrating conceptualization of language, hardly any interdisciplinary research has focused on the interplay between emotion and language. The present book covers the wide range of work on Emotion in Language with contributions from numerous disciplines in the three areas of Theory, Research, and Application. With contributions both from well-known pioneers in the area of this topic as well as from young scientists, the book offers a broad range of perspectives from linguistics and language development to neurology, psychology and developmental neuropsychology and to the fields of philosophy and phenomenology.
Discourses of Helping Professions
Discourses of Helping Professions brings together cutting-edge research on professional discourses from both traditional helping contexts such as doctor-patient interaction or psychotherapy and more recent helping contexts such as executive coaching. Unlike workplace, professional and institutional discourse – by now well established fields in linguistic research – discourses of helping professions represent an innovative concept in its orientation to a common communicative goal: solving patients’ and clients’ physical, psychological, emotional, professional or managerial problems via a particular helping discourse. The book sets out to uncover differences, similarities and interfere...
Angstkonstruktionen
Trotz einer Vielzahl kulturwissenschaftlicher Forschung ist Angst kein ausdiskutiertes Thema, insofern als nicht einmal die Semantiken der sprachlichen Ausdrucksmittel oder die Vielfalt der Konstruktionsformen genügend geklärt sind. Mit Blick auf die Gegenwart gilt es zu eruieren, welche Medien Ängste mit welchen Mitteln erzeugen und als angemessene Perspektive auf die soziale Wirklichkeit durchsetzen. Diesen Fragestellungen widmet sich der Band.
Zur Differenzierung von Handlungsfeldern im Coaching

Beispiele dafür sind sowohl Coaching von Kindern und Jugendlichen, in der Wissenschaft oder mit dem Ziel der beruflichen Integration.
