Cross-Curricular Dimensions of Language Learning and Teaching
This volume discusses a variety of aspects of cross-curricularity in language learning and teaching. It highlights the multidimensional character of language classes conducted at different educational levels, from pre-school to the university level, and discusses several important issues from a theoretical perspective, providing certain practical solutions and implications to the enumerated problems. The material of the book is divided into four parts, essentially reflecting the main areas of interest here. These parts deal with such notions as language learning and teaching; media in foreign language didactics; art and literature in language education; and (inter-)culturality and cross-curricularity in language learning and teaching. The book will be particularly useful to teacher-practitioners and scholars interested in various forms of integrating the content of different school subjects in language education.

InterActions
What do famous 20th century thinkers like Hannah Arendt, Guy Debord and Henri Lefebvre have to offer for a critical performance analysis today? Charlotte Gruber has taken a fresh look at their writings with respect to this question. In "InterActions" she applies her findings to the analysis of more than 12 contemporary artworks from different fields. In doing so she tackles two dominant developments in the Performing Arts: The ongoing trend to actively engage performance-participants in the performance process, and the tendency to leave common theatre buildings for innovative venues. Assisted by recent approaches from Media Studies, she scrutinizes the employment of new networking media. Her study reveals: Not only the Performing Arts but also other fields of art (Streetart, Visual Arts etc.) have to be considered for their performative potential and their extensive socio-political range. Gruber questions the term Site-Specific Art for its insufficiency to articulate this potential, which she sees in the creation, reinvention and reappropriation of public spaces. This thesis was awarded the TIN Theaterscriptieprijs 2012 by the Theater Institute of the Netherlands.
Qualität in der stationären Langzeitpflege
Die Liberalisierung, der Fachkräftemangel und die Ökonomisierung der Pflegelandschaft stellen Pflegeeinrichtungen vor große Herausforderungen. Noch haben in Deutschland die Wohlfahrtsverbände eine marktbeherrschende Stellung. Dies könnte sich allerdings durch den "Nursing Home-Industry Complex" zukünftig ändern. Wie sich die Entwicklung der Träger- und Rechtsform, von einer gemeinnützigen hin zu einer privatwirtschaftlichen, auf die Pflege- und Versorgungsqualität auswirkt, untersucht Eibe Hinrichs mittels eines Scoping Reviews, das er durch seine eigenen praktischen Erfahrungen als Pflegefachkraft in der Altenpflege sowie Klinik- und Geschäftsführer seines eigenen Unternehmens in der stationären Langzeitpflege alter Menschen ergänzt.
Focalizing Bodies
Through an inter-medial reading, linking film and literary theory, Maya van den Heuvel-Arad explores the potential of the post-dramatic performer in its corporeal presence to operate as a focalizer. Departing from the concept of focalization in literary narratology and transforming this concept into a visual device, the author introduces the notion of the body as a visual narrator and focalizer. With this she establishes an important tool to grasp the relationship between the performing body and the spectator's perception in post-dramatic theatre. With "Focalizing Bodies" the author provides a vocabulary to explore the potential of visual narratology, both in theory and in practice, of post-dramatic theatre.

Kulinarische Abenteuer im virtuellen Schlaraffenland
Showtime in der Fernsehküche! Schon Neil Postman postulierte, dass das Unterhaltungsdiktat des Fernsehens das alltägliche Leben bestimmt, und Konrad Paul Liessmann sieht in Talkshows einen Ausdruck für eine Demokratie auf der „Showbühne“. Wie ist es damit in den Fernsehküchen bestellt, die in den letzten Jahrzehnten buchstäblich wie die „Schwammerl“ in der Medienlandschaft in Form verschiedenster Kochshows erscheinen? Die „Kulinarischen Abenteuer im virtuellen Schlaraffenland“ untersuchen auf der Basis von Medientheorien und Theorien zum Essen und Kochen die mediale Darstellung von Kochsendungen. Dabei deckt die Autorin unter anderem die Rolle von Fleisch für die Konstruktion männlicher Identität auf, verweist aber auch auf das Potenzial alternativer Medienprodukte.

Germany
This book addresses the highly differentiated spatial, social, cultural and demographic structure(s) of Germany, with a particular focus on the reciprocal relations between different levels of spatial development. The historical development of Germany serves as a background in order to provide context for the development of spatially relevant ideas and ideals (whether in relation to politics, landscape, or culture). In this regard, questions of divergence and convergence become highly salient. The book makes the complexity of spatial and social developments in Germany comprehensible. The neopragmatic approach adopted here allows bringing together different theoretical strands while providing...
