The arrival of the Spanish in present-day Oaxaca, Mexico, led to manifold communicative challenges and was the origin of the first written documents in the local indigenous languages. This paper focuses on Spanish-Zapotec translations produced by Christian missionaries during the colonial period. In this context, it aims to investigate the expression of the concept of soul in their catechisms and confesionarios by analyzing chronologically how different authors apply the Spanish synonyms alma and ánima. On the one hand, we can observe some similar tendencies in central Mexican documents for the early colonial period so that we can assume that the corpus was influenced by Nahuatl translations. On the other hand, there is an independent development in Spanish-Zapotec translations not only regarding the target text but also the source text.

Nach bisheriger Kenntnis sind aus den Alpen Vorkommen von fünf Taraxacum-Kleinarten der Sektion Borealia in Frankreich, der Schweiz, Österreich, Italien und Slowenien bekannt: Taraxacum gallicum, Taraxacum handelii, T. kraettlii, T. mazzettii und T. melzerianum. Zwischen 2004 und 2014 wurden diese Vorkommen und weitere potentielle Wuchsorte aufgesucht. Durch detaillierte Untersuchung der Vorkommen vor Ort sowie zahlreicher Belege aus mehreren europäischen Herbarien können nun Merkmale ergänzt, präzisiert und einige Fehler, Unklarheiten in den Originalbeschreibungen korrigiert und Lücken ergänzt werden. Zahlreiche Fotos und Zeichnungen sowie ein neugefasster Schlüssel sollen den Zugang zur Sektion Borealia erleichtern. Mit Taraxacum cimae-gallinae vom Hühnerspiel bei Sterzing (Italien, Südtirol) wird eine neue Art der Sektion Borealia beschrieben. Die Wuchsorte der Borealia-Arten in der alpinen Stufe sind überwiegend Schotterböden auf windgefegten Graten und Gipfelverebnungen. Diese sind derzeit sowohl durch den Ski-Tourismus als auch durch die Klimaerwärmung gefährdet.
Raimund Karl diskutiert Konfliktlösungsmodi, wie sie üblich waren während der allmählichen Herausbildung (staatlicher) Zentralgewalten in Europa. Die frühen europäischen Rechtssysteme bestanden in der Explikation mündlich tradierter oder der Verschriftlichung lokal konstituierter Rechtsverständnisse, für die trotz der entstehenden Zentralgewalten vor allem Selbsthilfemechanismen maßgebend waren.
After the terrorist attacks on November 13th, the French public, the whole of Europe and many parts of the world were waiting for president François Hollande to address his fellow “citoyens”. Being the most important political figure – both by constitution and by influence on public discourse – the president’s words bear great importance for the subsequent debate and interpretation of the events. Therefore, the question arises: How did the president shape the debate in the hours and days after the attacks? To answer this question, we have identified typical structures in Hollande’s rhetorical reaction to the attacks, performing a topos as well as a keyword analysis of the speeches the president held within two weeks after November 13th. In a contrastive analysis we have compared Hollande’s speeches to the Europarl Corpus. Using the software programme sketch engine, we have filtered out the 100 most frequent keywords and classified them into semantic fields (data-driven approach). All in all, terrorism, action and nation/identity are the three predominant semantic fields, whereas references to victimhood barely appear. These findings are congruent with the results of our topos analysis that reveals a predominance of argumentative structures that form a strong main topos of resilience, emphasising the greatness of France and its people and culture, calling to action and avoiding any tendencies of resignation.
The history of intellectual and cultural contact between West and East is very complicated and contradictory. A long time ago, eastern culture attracted the attention of many writers, orientalists and researchers, who headed east not only to study and describe the fascinating eastern civilizations, but also to analyze their different literary, historical and scientific aspects.
The new mysterious but exciting environment inspired the orientalists to record and describe what they experienced regarding the architecture, the nature and the people. The attractive eastern natural views which are distinguishable from the monotonous western environment – especially after the industrial revolution – helped them to find new prospects.
The East has been coming into focus since the middle ages, when the church campaigns started to study Islam as the prevalent religion in this area. The orientalist motivations were not only religious, but also followed economic, colonial and scientific agenda, which lead to a plethora of specialized research, stories, novels and analytical studies. A close look at the orientalists’ works will provide us with an overview of eastern civilization. Therefore, their works are considered as a mirror reflecting their point of view to the east and the north of Africa, especially to pharaonic Egypt.
The orientalists who travelled to the east and expressed their passion to this old civilization in their writings influenced the literary movement deeply. But what do we mean by the term orientalism? Edward Saïd has defined this term in different ways. Saïd presented and interpreted it as a way of thinking, a historical phenomenon. Defining orientalism has become a problem indeed, and now it is carrying a number of meanings which do not match. Therefore, the aim of the study is to bring into focus the most important definitions of the term orientalism from the late 17th to the mid-20th century.
Über Eskalation
(2024)
Das Phänomen der Eskalation von Auseinandersetzungen zwischen Konfliktparteien ist seitens der Philosophie und Ethik bislang kaum untersucht worden. Dietmar Hübner nimmt sich dieses Desiderates an und analysiert die normative Tiefenstruktur von Eskalationen als Schlüssel zu einem Verständnis der Stabilität eskalierender Konflikte, ihrer psychosozialen Dynamik sowie paradoxal erscheinender Ausdrucksformen.
Future mobile communication networks, such as 5G and beyond, can benefit from Virtualized Network Functions (VNFs) when deployed on cloud infrastructures to achieve elasticity and scalability. However, new challenges arise as to managing states of Network Functions (NFs). Especially control plane VNFs, which are mainly found in cellular core networks like the 5G Core (5GC), received little attention since the shift towards virtualizing NFs. Most existing solutions for these core networks are often complex, intrusive, and are seldom compliant with the standard. With the emergence of 5G campus networks, UEs will be mainly machine-type devices. These devices communicate more deterministically, bringing new opportunities for elaborated state management. This work presents an emulation environment to perform rigorous measurements on state access patterns. The emulation comes with a fully parameterized Markov model for the UE to examine a wide variety of different devices. These measurements can then be used as a solid base for designing an efficient, simple, and standard conform state management solution that brings us further towards stateless core networks.

This article seeks to analyse the volume of poems Vapor de foto (2006) written by the young contemporary poet Luciana Romano from Buenos Aires. Romano is also an activist of the politically engaged artist collective Etcétera… founded in the late nineties. Her poetry reveals a certain correlation with the aesthetics of the actions and interventions developed by Etcétera… in the streets and public spaces not only of Argentina but also of Europe. Furthermore, the creation of Vapor de foto is based on the collective’s experiences and practices. Using a methodological approach that combines close reading and a cultural and socio-critical focus, several poems will be exemplarily analysed in order to examine the interrelation between Romano’s style of writing and her activism. Assuming that her poetry, as well as the work of Etcétera…, belongs to a postdictatorial contemporary aesthetics characterized by the complex interplay between dadaistic and surrealistic dis/continuities, this article will focus on the analysis of different forms of relations between text and image.
France, Italy, and Spain are three Romance-speaking countries which – at least in Europe – have been affected to a very high degree by the consequences of the Corona pandemic. This paper examines discursive strategies on social media (Twitter and Facebook) by the three heads of government/state of the aforementioned countries – namely Emmanuel Macron (France), Giuseppe Conte (Italy), and Pedro Sánchez (Spain)- from a corpuslinguistic point of view. For this purpose, a corpus was created which contains all Twitter and Facebook messages posted by these heads of government/state from the beginning of February until the end of April 2020. By applying corpus-linguistic methods we find that all three politicians consciously use social media to sensitize, inform, and – in view of a dramatic pandemic situation – unite their respective populations behind them.
French-Madagascan colonial history is full of dark chapters. After Madagascar’s independence the French general public forgot the country very quickly. In Malagasies collective memory, the wounds of colonial injustice are still open even if they are generally considered as fady (‘tabooʼ). Désiré Razafinjato is the first Malagasy author writing in French who dares to approach the difficult relations between Malagasy-French and indigenous Malagasy as well as between indigenous Francophiles and indigenous anti-French nationalists. In his tale «Tahiry. From Madagascar to the Algerian djebel, the bitter-fatherland», the narrator speaks about the painful loss of any fatherland for all those Malagasy who during the War of Algeria got involved as French soldiers. Indeed, it is the sad history of the despoliation of an ideal Motherland on the French side and of the refusal of membership in an ancestral fatherland on the Malagasy side. What remains for those ancient French-Malagasy combatants is the feeling of a ‘bitter-fatherlandʼ and the feeling of living in ‘between everywhereʼ in some kind of ‘non-fatherlandʼ.
Cooperative, connected and automated mobility (CCAM) systems depend on a reliable communication to provide their service and more crucially to ensure the safety of users. One way to ensure the reliability of a data transmission is to use multiple transmission technologies in combination with redundant flows. In this paper, we describe a system requiring multipath communication in the context of CCAM. To this end, we introduce a data plane-based scheduler that uses replication and integration modules to provide redundant and transparent multipath communication. We provide an analytical model for the full replication module of the system and give an overview of how and where the data-plane scheduler components can be realized.

Archäobotanische Großrestuntersuchungen in der frühneolithischen Fundstelle Gallmersgarten-Mörlbach erbrachten, trotz geringer Fundmengen, ein zeittypisches Kulturpflanzenspektrum. Drei Getreidearten – Emmer (Triticum dicoccon), Einkorn (Triticum monococcum), Nacktgerste (Hordeum vulgare) –, eine Hülsenfrucht – Erbse (Pisum sativum) – und Lein (Linum usitatissmum) als Öl- und Faserpflanze fanden sich in den Proben, welche aus archäologischen Strukturen genommen wurden. Wildpflanzen wie Weißer Gänsefuß (Chenopodium album-Typ), Schwarzer Nachtschatten (Solanum nigrum) oder Gezähnter Feldsalat (Valerianella dentata) könnten durchaus die bandkeramische Küche bereichert haben. Als Besonderheit dürfte das Grannenfragment von Pfriemengras (Stipa) gelten, welches in den wohl offenen Wäldern in der Umgebung der Siedlung wuchs.
Globale Wertschöpfungsketten stellen nicht nur hochkomplexe Beziehungsgefüge dar, sondern unterliegen auch einem ständigen Wandlungsprozess. Ein zentraler Treiber dieser Wandlungsprozesse ist der technologische Fortschritt. Moderne Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien, insbesondere die Phänomene der Digitalisierung und des Online-Handels, sind derzeit von besonderer Bedeutung für Wertschöpfungsketten, da unterschiedliche Fortschritte in der Digitalisierung nicht nur zu wirtschaftlichen Vor- und Nachteilen von Unternehmen führen können, sondern auch zu Up- bzw. Downgradingprozessen innerhalb der Wertschöpfungsketten.
In der vorliegenden Studie wird der Fokus auf den handels- bzw. konsumentennahen Teil von Wertschöpfungsketten gelegt, um die Folgen der Digitalisierung für Hersteller, Händler und Konsumenten näher zu betrachten. Als konkretes Forschungsbeispiel dient die deutsche Schuhbranche, da sich diese gegenwärtig – von Industrie bis Handel – in einem umfassenden Strukturwandel befindet. Die Analyse zeigt, dass sich die Komplexität von Wertschöpfungsketten im Zuge der Digitalisierung deutlich erhöht (hat). In der Schuhbranche drängen neue Akteure auf den Markt, bestehende Akteure müssen sich anpassen. Direkte Folgen sind nicht nur eine neue Akteurskonstellation, sondern auch ein sich neu bildendes Machtgefüge. Es kommt somit zur Restrukturierung bisheriger Wertschöpfungsketten.
Die Tätigkeit des Singens ist für den Menschen von kultureller, anthropologischer, sozialer und ontogenetischer Bedeutung. Aktuelle Entwicklungen, die sich seit rund einem Jahrzehnt innerhalb der vokalpädagogischen Praxis mit Kindern im Bereich von Kindertagesstätten, von Grundschulen, Musikhochschulen und weiteren Ausbildungsinstitutionen vollziehen, zeigen, dass dem Singen mit Kindern ebenfalls eine große didaktische Relevanz zukommt.
Der Bedarf an vokalpädagogischen Angeboten nimmt stetig zu, doch war bislang ungeklärt, was gute vokalpädagogische Praxis angesichts höchst heterogener Angebote ausmacht. Daher wurde in der vorliegenden Dissertation zum einen der Frage nachgegangen, wie sich der Qualitätsbegriff für die vokalpädagogische Praxis bestimmen lässt. Zum anderen wurden Merkmale eruiert, welche gute vokalpädagogische Praxis charakterisieren.
Ausgehend von diesen Leitfragen wurde zunächst der Qualitätsbegriff für die vokalpädagogische Praxis mit Kindern auf theoretisch-systematische Weise bestimmt. Dabei konnten durch Anwendung und Übertragung empirisch belegter, fachunspezifischer Qualitätsmerkmale Ziele und leitende Prinzipien für die vokalpädagogische Praxis systematisch ermittelt werden, die den Besonderheiten musikalischen, vokalen und ästhetischen Lernens Rechnung tragen. Anschließend wurden diese Ziele und Prinzipien in einem mehrebenenanalytischen Modell zur Qualität in der vokalpädagogischen Praxis mit Kindern aufeinander bezogen; dabei wurden die Zielsetzungen zum Singen mit Kindern sowohl auf Prozessebene als auch auf Produktebene formuliert und begründet. Das Modell stellt das zentrale Ergebnis der Arbeit dar.
Schließlich wurden für die konkrete Anwendung und Nutzung in der vokalpädagogischen Praxis acht Merkmale guter vokalpädagogischer Praxis aus dem Modell expliziert, welche zugleich die wesentlichen Aspekte des vorgestellten Modells zusammenfassen. Zudem konnten auf Basis des Modells Maßnahmen für die Qualitätsentwicklung vokalpädagogischer Praxis entwickelt werden, was als weiteres praxisorientiertes Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit zu verstehen ist.
In this paper, the different uses and functions of (yo) pienso (que) are analysed. The examples demonstrate that (yo) pienso (que) fulfils various functions. It is used as a marker of cognitive attitude concerning the proposition (that is, the speaker expresses his validative attitude or an inference), as a pragmatic marker or as a cognitive particle. In this study, we introduce the term ‘cognitive particle’ in order to describe the use of (yo) pienso (que) when its use serves to gain time in processing the enunciation or to structure the speaker’s thoughts. The empirical data are on the one hand retrieved from the corpus programme CREA, of debates and interviews focusing on peninsular Spanish, and on the other hand from GlossaNet, more precisely from the newspapers El País and El Mundo. This analysis is a qualitative one because we do not focus on the frequency of the different functions. Instead, we want to illustrate the various functions (yo) pienso (que) fulfils.
The present paper is concerned with the use of English cognitive verbs like think, mean and guess as well as with fixed expressions that contain these verbs like guess what (?) or think about it in Portuguese online discourses. In the qualitative analysis of examples retrieved from the Corpus do Português (Web/Dialects) I mainly focus on the syntactic behavior of the expressions under survey, also comparing their use and function in the English language. In the final part of the paper I reflect about possible reasons of the employment of English elements in Portuguese conversation.
According to the Senegalesian scholar Felwine Sarr who conceives an African utopia in his programmatic essay Afrotopia (2016), this Afrotopos has already germinated in contemporary African literature. However, it still needs to be enquired to what extent the narrated topos of the street in Sarr’s own anthology 105 Rue Carnot (2011) has already realized the Afrotopos. In order to respond to this question, we would like to mobilise Michel Foucault’s concept of heterotopia, which elaborates on the interactions between truth production/knowledge, power and space, and permits us to conceive of «les lieux utopiques» (Foucault 2005: 40) as actually locatable on the map and real other places outside of all places (cf. Foucault 1994: 755). Thus, in the street, a different relationship between global North and South is founded, which becomes legible as an African «utopie localisée» (Foucault 2005: 41) that Sarr calls for in Afrotopia (2016).
French history of literature is undoubtedly characterized by a tradition of social criticism portraying the working class’ misery that can be traced back at least to the 19th century. Among these depictions, Zola’s novels have a prominent position. This is, among other aspects, due to their pretended scientific foundation and their pretentious claims to be scientific studies. The contemporary author Édouard Louis situates himself in this tradition of Zola’s naturalism. This invites us to examine the interrelation between Zola and Louis more closely. Based on the common ground of scientific foundation, scientific ambition and social commitment pursued in their novels, it will be demonstrated that Louis is a late-modern Zola whose milieu and character descriptions follow in detail Zola’s constructions.
Ebenfalls ethnologisch-vergleichend befasst sich Jürg Helbling mit dem Einfluss bestimmter Drittparteien auf den Verlauf tribaler Kriege: den Alliierten einer Lokalgruppe, die sie im Kampf gegen einen Feind unterstützen, und einem gemeinsamen Feind, gegen den sich zwei Lokalgruppen verbünden. Beide Typen von Drittparteien beeinflussen nicht nur die Einhegung oder Beilegung von Gewaltkonflikten, sie können auch zu ihrer Verlängerung und Verschärfung beitragen.

Justus Heck untersucht vergleichend Formen der Konfliktvermittlung in segmentären Gesellschaften einerseits und funktional differenzierten Gesellschaften andererseits. Während in gering differenzierten sozialen Systemen diese selbst als implizite Dritte fungieren, unabhängig davon, ob konkrete Personen schlichtend intervenieren, und die Vermittlung ritualhafte Züge trägt, ermöglichen funktional differenzierte Gesellschaften verfahrensförmige, formalisierte und professionalisierte Vermittlungen.
On the basis of four relevées of hedges around Straiton en Dailly in South Ayrshire, Scotland, some features of hedges are discussed. On the basis of the brambles, the vegetation of these hedges can be assigned to the Pruno-Rubion sprengelii, which comprises the bramble scrubs of circumneutral and nutrient rich soils in West Europe (Haveman et al. 2017, Haveman & de Ronde 2019). Until now, this alliance was thought to be restricted to the northwestern edge of the European continent, but based on these relevées and the known distribution area of Rubus nemoralis and Rubus polyanthemus, both characteristic for the Pruno-Rubion sprengelii, large parts of North England and Scotland have to be included in the distribution area of the alliance.
The Pruno-Rubion sprengelii is optimally developed in rather narrow structures, like hedges, which are pruned every year. Here, brambles and herbs alike can grow with and under the shrubs, facilitated by the light that reaches large parts of the ground. Where the economic base of hedges perishes, they are not longer maintained, and the shrubs can grow out to their natural proportions. This changes the amount of light reaching the surface in the inner parts of the thicket, changing the competition between the species. The brambles as well as the herbs are displaced to the outer edges of the scrub, and the vegetation "dissociates" in a high-growing scrub, a fore-mantle ("cuff") with brambles, and a fringe with perennial herbs. These elements can hardly ever be assigned to the Pruno-Rubion anymore.
The Pruno-Rubion sprengelii in optima forma is a scrub in which the three elements (shrubs, brambles, and herbs) grow closely intertwined. This is rarely found in natural landscapes, and thus the alliance is a typical element of the old farmer landscape. What is more: the typical species of the alliance, like Rubus nemoralis and R. polyanthemus, could only evolve after the landscape was opened by farmers in the last six millennia (Matzke-Hajek 1997), giving way to Rubus ulmifolius to expand its distribution area. This caused an explosion of hybrids which stabilised through apomixis into the wealth of Rubus species inhibiting the West European landscape nowadays (Sochor et al. 2015). Many of these species have their original home in a man-made landscape. Therefore, the Pruno-Rubion sprengelii can be characterised as a "farmers alliance" pur sang.
Web caches often use a Time-to-live (TTL) limit to validate data consistency with web servers. We study the impact of TTL constraints on the hit ratio of basic strategies in caches of fixed size. We derive analytical results and confirm their accuracy in comparison to simulations. We propose a score-based caching method with awareness of the current TTL per data for improving the hit ratio close to the upper bound.
This contribution deals with the phonetic heterogeneity of spoken Spanish in Andalusia in the sector of public auditory media, specifically in the program ¡Anda Levanta! of Canal Fiesta Radio. First, we take into consideration Article 10 of the Statute of the Autonomy of Andalusia, which enhances the protection, promotion, study, and prestige of the Andalusian modalities and its respective variety (cf. Parlamento de Andalucía 2007: 13). Second, we refer to the Libro de Estilo, a mandatory guide for presenters of public audiovisual media in Andalusia since 2014. The results of the qualitative analysis indicate divergences between the presenters and their audience with regard to their use of phonetic characteristics typical of the Andalusian varieties: where the presenters tend to avoid the salient aspects of the varieties, the audience employs a range of phonetic characteristics typical for Andalusian varieties, including some of the characteristics that are considered less prestigious.
In this contribution, chants of the followers of the Argentine football team Boca Juniors are analyzed with regard to possible identity constructions and othering. The results of the corpus-driven discourse-linguistic analysis demonstrate in particular metaphors and topoi that can be highlighted as a constitutive part of the discursive construction of a Boca Juniors supporters’ identity and the otherings of River Plate hinchas. Through the use of certain metaphors and determined lexical fields that clearly call for acts of violence, a masculine ethos is discursively constructed among Bocas own followers, which goes far beyond comparable insulting and cheering chants of comparable European football teams.
Despite some critical voices, in German linguistics the concept of confix can meanwhile be considered as an established morpheme category. Schmidt (1987) introduced the term into German to describe bound morphemes that are lexical, but not inflectable. Since the 2000s, an increasing number of publications deal with the phenomenon and the term has begun to enter linguistic reference works as well. In French, the situation is completely different due to the structure of the language (poor in compounds and mostly post-determinative). Although the term and the concept have originall y been coined by the French structuralist André Martinet ([1961] \(^3\)1980 ), the denomination itself is barely present in Romance linguistics. French researchers usually take different approaches to discuss the phenomenon (e.g., neoclassical compounds, constructed lexemes). In Italian, the denominations confisso/ confissazione are first used by De Mauro (1999), who adopts both the term and concept directly from Martinet; moreover, they can be found in some contributions on word formation and lexicology (e.g., Adamo/Della Valle 2008). Nevertheless, the Italian termino-logy remains heterogeneous, with some researchers still using the terms prefissoide/suffissoide coined by Migliorini (1963). As I will show by comparing the languages in question, the terminology and the concept of confixes vary greatly between Romance and Germanic languages.
Investigations focusing on the social criticism in La Regenta (1884-1885) by Leopoldo Alas «Clarín» have constantly referred to the unmasking of society’s hypocrisy and provincialism through the implementation of satire and irony in the novel. This observation, though, has to be defined more clearly. Vetustan society, specifically the bourgeoisie, is characterized primarily by the incessant exhibition of supposed wisdom and intelligentsia in public to generate social prestige and power. By analyzing the narrative strategies which are related to the composition of the secondary characters, the role of two specific public venues (Casino and Theatre of Vetusta) and the (de)construction of P. Ronzal, P. Guimarán and S. Bermúdez in the novel, this article illustrates how false wisdom and pseudo-intelligentsia become central motifs regarding social criticism in La Regenta.

In network research, reproducibility of experiments is not always easy to achieve. Infrastructures are cumbersome to set up or are not available due to vendor-specific devices. Emulators try to overcome those issues to a given extent and are available in different service models. Unfortunately, the usability of emulators requires time-consuming efforts and a deep understanding of their functionality. At first, we analyze to which extent currently available open-source emulators support network configurations and how user-friendly they are. With these insights, we describe, how an ease-to-use emulator is implemented and may run as a Network Emulator as a Service (NEaaS). Therefore, virtualization plays a major role in order to deploy a NEaaS based on Kathará.
Packets sent over a network can either get lost or reach their destination. Protocols like TCP try to solve this problem by resending the lost packets. However, retransmissions consume a lot of time and are cumbersome for the transmission of critical data. Multipath solutions are quite common to address this reliability issue and are available on almost every layer of the ISO/OSI model. We propose a solution based on a P4 network to duplicate packets in order to send them to their destination via multiple routes. The last network hop ensures that only a single copy of the traffic is further forwarded to its destination by adopting a concept similar to Bloom filters. Besides, if fast delivery is requested we provide a P4 prototype, which randomly forwards the packets over different transmission paths. For reproducibility, we implement our approach in a container-based network emulation system called Kathará.
Eine Liste der 205 Arten und 1561 Unterarten der Gattung Hieracium s. l. , die in Deutschland, aufgeschlüsselt nach Bundesländern vorkommen, wird vorgestellt. Da die meisten infraspezifischen Namen unter Hieracium publiziert wurden und um die Zahl der invaliden Namen unter Pilosella in der Liste zu minimieren, wird auf eine Aufteilung in Hieracium und Pilosella verzichtet. Durch Farbmarkierungen wird gekennzeichnet, welche Unterart ursprünglich aus einem Bundesland beschrieben wurde bzw. ob ein Syntypus aus einem Bundesland stammt.
Hieracium rotundatum subsp. silvae-bavaricae wird als neu für die Wissenschaft beschrieben und abgebildet. Die neue Unterart gehört zu einem Formenkreis von Arten (H. rotundatum, H. transylvanicum), dessen Hauptverbreitung auf dem Balkan liegt. Die wechselvolle nomenklatorische Geschichte des Artnamens wird nachgezeichnet. Diagnostische Merkmale zur Unterscheidung der in der Wuchsform ähnlichen Arten H. murorum, H. rotundatum und H. transylvanicum werden diskutiert. Dabei wird auf die Bedeutung der Ausbildung des Grundblattzyklus besonders hingewiesen. Entgegen bisheriger Kenntnis reicht die nordwestliche Verbreitungsgrenze von H. rotundatum nun bis Südost-Bayern. Bei der Suche nach H. rotundatum konnte auch eine morphologisch auffällige Unterart von H. rotundatum nachgewiesen werden, die hier als neu beschrieben wird.
Im Rahmen bauvorgreifender Untersuchungen durch die Stadtarchäologie Straubing unter Leitung von Frau Ildiko Bősze konnten in den Jahren 2018 und 2019 im Südosten von Straubing, im Bereich des dortigen Wasserwerks, Teile einer älterlinienbandkeramischen Siedlung erfasst werden. Neben einigen Gruben und vier Hausgrundrissen kamen im nördlichen Bereich der Fläche die Überreste zweier Grubenöfen zu Tage, die hier ausführlich besprochen werden sollen. Als in den letzten Jahren selten anzutreffende Befundgattung und aufgrund ihrer auffällig unterschiedlichen Konstruktionsweisen mit und ohne Steinpflasterung bilden die beiden Straubinger Grubenöfen zwei interessante Untersuchungsobjekte. Mit der Verbreitung der Grubenöfen vom Rheinland bis zum Donauknie und der zeitlichen Beschränkung praktisch ausschließlich auf die LBK handelt es sich um ein Konstruktionsprinzip, das in der Zeit vor den ersten Ackerbauern und auch im anschließenden Mittelneolithikum nicht genutzt wurde (Pechtl 2008, 72–74). Es erscheint daher erstrebenswert, die Befunde sowie die anzusprechende Keramik aus den beiden Grubenöfen aufzuarbeiten und vorzulegen.

This paper deals with the taxonomical position and the nomenclature of two taxa belonging to the genus Sedum (Crassulaceae), today treated as Phedimus, namely Sedum middendorffianum Maxim var. diffusum Praeger and Sedum oppositifolium Sims. The correct taxonomical application of names is based on the nomenclatural types designated here.
In scientific research, the independent reproduction of experiments is the source of trust. Detailed documentation is required to enable experiment reproduction. Reproducibility awards were created to honor the increased documentation effort. In this work, we propose a novel approach toward reproducible research—a structured experimental workflow that allows the creation of reproducible experiments without requiring additional efforts of the researcher. Moreover, we present our own testbed and toolchain, namely, plain orchestrating service (pos), which enables the creation of such experimental workflows. The experiment is documented by our proposed, fully scripted experiment structure. In addition, pos provides scripts enabling the automation of the bundling and release of all experimental artifacts. We provide an interactive environment where pos experiments can be executed and reproduced, available at https://gallenmu.github.io/single-server-experiment.
Durch die globale Organisation von Lebensmittelwarenketten steht Konsument*innen heute ein vielfältiges, ganzjährig nahezu gleichbleibendes Angebot an frischem Obst und Gemüse im Lebensmitteleinzelhandel zur Verfügung. Damit einher geht eine erhöhte Komplexität beim Lebensmitteleinkauf und ein verändertes Wissen von Konsument*innen, über die Waren: Das eigene Erfahren der Lebensmittelproduktion ist im Alltag heute nicht mehr möglich. Statt praktischem Wissen gewinnt damit explizites und objektiviertes Wissen über die Waren, z.B. in Form von Siegeln an Bedeutung. Viele Produkt- und Produktionseigenschaften entziehen sich zudem der Kenntnis der Konsument*innen, während gleichzeitig das Bewusstsein für Fragen sozialer und ökologischer Nachhaltigkeit steigt.
Die vorliegende Studie geht vor diesem Hintergrund am Beispiel des Einkaufs von frischem Obst und Gemüse der Frage nach, welche Bedeutung die Herkunftsangabe als Hinweis auf die Geographien der Waren für die Bewertung von frischem Obst und Gemüse hat und welches Wissen Konsument*innen über Waren und deren Biographien haben. Es wird zudem aufgezeigt, welche Rolle Nichtwissen beim Lebensmittelkonsum spielt.
Die Studie liefert Erkenntnisse für die bislang im deutschsprachigen Raum noch vergleichsweise wenig repräsentierte Konsumgeographie und macht Konzepte aus der Wissens- und Organisationssoziologie für die wirtschaftsgeographische Forschung fruchtbar. Aus einer Praxisperspektive bietet sie Anschlusspunkte für Fragen des nachhaltigen Konsums sowie des Verbraucherschutzes.
This paper presents a novel concept to extend state-of-the-art buffer monitoring with additional measures to estimate service-curves. The online algorithm for service-curve estimation replaces the state-of-the-art timestamp logging, as we expect it to overcome the main disadvantages of generating a huge amount of data and using a lot of CPU resources to store the data to a file during operation. We prove the accuracy of the online-algorithm offline with timestamp data and compare the derived bounds to the measured delay and backlog. We also do a proof-of- concept of the online-algorithm, implement it in LabVIEW and compare its performance to the timestamp logging by CPU load and data-size of the log-file. However, the implementation is still work-in-progress.
How to Model and Predict the Scalability of a Hardware-In-The-Loop Test Bench for Data Re-Injection?
(2023)
This paper describes a novel application of an empirical network calculus model based on measurements of a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test system. The aim is to predict the performance of a HIL test bench for open-loop re-injection in the context of scalability. HIL test benches are distributed computer systems including software, hardware, and networking devices. They are used to validate complex technical systems, but have not yet been system under study themselves. Our approach is to use measurements from the HIL system to create an empirical model for arrival and service curves. We predict the performance and design the previously unknown parameters of the HIL simulator with network calculus (NC), namely the buffer sizes and the minimum needed pre-buffer time for the playback buffer. We furthermore show, that it is possible to estimate the CPU load from arrival and service-curves based on the utilization theorem, and hence estimate the scalability of the HIL system in the context of the number of sensor streams.

The study uses the category of disgust in order to analyse the representation of the human body and the corpse in one of the most influential medieval treatises, the De Miseria Condicionis Humanae (1195) written by Pope Innocent III, and its little known old French adaptation Double lay de fragilité humaine (1383) by Eustache Deschamps. Analysing how both use disgust as an aesthetic means, which appeals to emotions and turns off reason, helps to point out the pedagogical and moral function of the texts. The comparison between them shows that Deschamps stays faithful to his Latin model, but that he nevertheless has to make certain modifications in order to adapt the prose text into a lyrical form. Furthermore, this approach clearly elucidates what differences there are between the conceptions of the human body and death in the two texts, revealing at the same time divergent theological points of view.

Natural walking in virtual reality games is constrained by the physical boundaries defined by the size of the player’s tracking space. Impossible spaces, a redirected walking technique, enlarge the virtual environment by creating overlapping architecture and letting multiple locations occupy the same physical space. Within certain thresholds, this is subtle to the player. In this paper, we present our approach to implement such impossible spaces and describe how we handled challenges like objects with simulated physics or precomputed global illumination.
Time-to-Live (TTL) caches decouple the occupancy of objects in cache through object-specific validity timers. Stateof- the art techniques provide exact methods for the calculation of object-specific hit probabilities given entire cache hierarchies with random inter-cache network delays. The system hit probability is a provider-centric metric as it relates to the origin offload, i.e., the decrease in the number of requests that are served by the content origin server. In this paper we consider a user-centric metric, i.e., the response time, which is shown to be structurally different from the system hit probability. Equipped with the state-of-theart exact modeling technique using Markov-arrival processes we derive expressions for the expected object response time and pave a way for its optimization under network delays.
Die lokale Bioverfügbarkeit von osteoinduktiven Wachstumsfaktoren hat einen entscheidenden Einfluss auf das Ausmaß der Knochenbildung. Die Affinität der Proteine zu Komponenten der extrazellulären Matrix (EZM) beeinflusst ihre Ortsständigkeit und damit ihre biologische Aktivität am Implantationsort. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden BMP-2 und seine gentechnologisch hergestellten Varianten mit verstärkter (T3, T4) und aufgehobener (EHBMP-2) Bindung an die EZM untersucht. Die Wachstumsfaktoren wurden einzeln sowie in Kombination mit EHBMP-2 in Bezug auf die erzielbare Knochenneubildungsrate im heterotopen Implantatlager (Oberschenkelmuskulatur der Ratte) verglichen. Durch den Einsatz der Proteinkombinationen wurde der Frage nachgegangen, inwieweit die Knochenneubildung durch die Mischung einer kaum an die extrazelluläre Matrix bindenden Varianten (EHBMP-2) mit einem „normal“ (BMP-2 Wildtyp) bzw. verstärkt (T3, T4) an die extrazelluläre Matrix bindenden Morphogen verbessert werden kann. Mittels röntgenologischer, biochemischer und histologischer Untersuchungen wurden die Geschwindigkeit und das Ausmaß der Knochenneubildung analysiert. Bei allen Proteinen bzw. Proteinkombinationen wurde eine direkte Abhängigkeit der Knochenneubildung von den eingesetzten Proteinmengen beobachtet. Bei niedriger Konzentration (2 µg) waren BMP-2 bzw. die Varianten T3 und T4 den Proteinkombinationen mit EHBMP-2 immer überlegen. Bei höherer Dosis (4 µg) waren BMP-2 und T4 den Kombinationen mit EHBMP-2 überlegen. Nur bei T3 in höherer Dosierung konnte ein positiver Effekt einer Kombination mit EHBMP-2 beobachtet werden.
The normative use of past tenses is supposed to be a big challenge for learners of Spanish. Although they might understand the grammatical chapter in theory, adequate past tense use in spontaneous oral production is not guaranteed. Morphological errors, overgeneralizations of tenses and interferences with other languages characterize the interlanguage of the learners. Based on two corpuses, we analyse how the past tense use differs between secondary school students from Austria and Romance polyglots. Qualitative and quantitative analyses show that polyglot speakers surpass the secondary school students in some areas such as the distinction of verbal aspect. However, the students tend less to use the perfecto compuesto in an inadequate way in narration.
Service orchestration requires enormous attention and is a struggle nowadays. Of course, virtualization provides a base level of abstraction for services to be deployable on a lot of infrastructures. With container virtualization, the trend to migrate applications to a micro-services level in order to be executable in Fog and Edge Computing environments increases manageability and maintenance efforts rapidly. Similarly, network virtualization adds effort to calibrate IP flows for Software-Defined Networks and eventually route it by means of Network Function Virtualization. Nevertheless, there are concepts like MAPE-K to support micro-service distribution in next-generation cloud and network environments. We want to explore, how a service distribution can be improved by adopting machine learning concepts for infrastructure or service changes. Therefore, we show how federated machine learning is integrated into a cloud-to-fog-continuum without burdening single nodes.
Für das Vorkommen einer Ranunculus auricomus-Sippe im Oberen Inntal bei Innnsbuck, Nordtirol, Österreich, existieren belegte Nachweise seit 135 Jahren. Diese Sippe sammelte L. Sarnthein am 08.06.1884, J. Murr 1887 bei Flaurling. Von beiden Aufsammlungen befinden sich Belege im Tiroler Landesmuseum (Herbarium Ferdinandeum Innsbruck; IBF). Trotz Trockenlegung der Sumpfwiesen und Eutrophierung des Biotops kommt die Art noch aktuell in einem kleinen Nasswiesenrest vor. Sie wird hier als R. sarntheinianus Dunkel beschrieben, abgebildet und ihre Taxonomie wird diskutiert. Der mutmaßlich letzte Wuchsort ist vom Aussterben bedroht. Eine graphische Darstellung soll bei Artbestimmung und Auffinden neuer Wuchsorte behilflich sein.
Die Arten des Schweizer Ranunculus-auricomus-Komplexes sind nur zu einem Teil bekannt. Zur vollständigeren Erfassung des Komplexes wurden Exkursionen in die südwestliche und östliche Schweiz unternommen. Es wurden sieben neue Arten entdeckt, die hier beschrieben und abgebildet sind. Ihre Taxonomie und Gefährdung wird diskutiert. R. chalarocarpus W. Koch ex Dunkel ist bereits bei Koch provisorisch erwähnt, R. clavicornis Dunkel wird nun gültig beschrieben. Beide Arten sind aufgrund ihres Vorkommens in Auwäldern und feuchten Laubwäldern stark gefährdet, R. clavicornis sogar fast ausgestorben. Der neu beschriebene R. thurgoviae kommt im Osten der Schweiz vor (Kanton Thurgau). Die bislang bekannte Verbreitung von R. allobrogorum Dunkel, R. crenulatus Dunkel, R. genevensis Dunkel und R. lineatus ist fast vollständig auf den Kanton Genf beschränkt. Die Arten des Ranunculus auricomus-Komplexes sind ein sensibler Indikator für Veränderungen der Vegetation und Umwelt und sollten diesbezüglich deutlich mehr Gewicht bekommen.
Die Beschreibung von Ranunculus puberulus W. Koch erfolgte bereits 1933. Walo Koch bestimmte in der Folge eine Vielzahl von Belegen zum Teil deutlich verschiedener Taxa als R. puberulus. In Übereinstimmung mit den Arbeiten von Borchers-Kolb 1985 und Brodtbeck 1988 wird unter Hinzuziehung der publizierten Diagnose ein Lectotypus aus der Originalsammlung von Kummer & Koch von Hilzingen, Baden-Württemberg, ausgewählt und abgebildet. Anhand von rezenten Aufsammlungen an der Typuslokalität wird R. puberulus nach inzwischen standardisierten Kriterien charakterisiert und dargestellt. R. puberulus ist durch eine feine unregelmäßige Zähnung der Schlussblätter auffällig und stellt im Gegensatz zur weit verbreiteten Auffassung einen Endemiten des Hegau im südwestlichsten Deutschland dar. Insgesamt sind zur Zeit nur zwei Populationen bekannt, so dass für die Art zumindest eine starke Gefährdung anzunehmen ist.
The encounter with non-human animals has always been a major preoccupation in the (philosophical) quest of understanding the human (condition). Of course, they are not only present in literary texts, but also in other media such as music and art. We consider ourselves aware of their selves, natures and skills as well as their sensory perceptions. Indeed, the ways we interact with non-human animals in everyday life and in the fictional world, how we perceive, think and talk about them as well as how we communicate with them are often related to our own self-perceptions in the social collective and in social-historical discourse. If we take a closer look at literary interspecies relations, we can detect clear shades in language and communication. Based on the approaches of Human-Animal Studies, this article deals with those nuances regarding animal-human encounters in Juan Ramón Jiménez’ Platero y yo (1914/1917) and Thomas Mann's Herr und Hund (1919) in a comparative perspective. In addition to this, a special focus is placed on the effect these elements can have on (inter)acting literary subjects as well as on extra-textual recipients.
Martin Dinges’ Konzept der „Justiznutzung“ meint eine Instrumentalisierung der Justiz beispielsweise mittels einer gleichzeitigen oder alternativen Nutzung verschiedener justizförmiger Angebote nach Opportunitätskriterien. Ausgehend von diesem Konzept, ermittelt er Gemeinsamkeiten mit und Differenzen zu der Nutzung medizinischer Angebote in der europäischen Frühmoderne.
This paper gives an overview of our recent activities in the field of satellite communication networks, including an introduction to geostationary satellite systems and Low Earth Orbit megaconstellations. To mitigate the high latencies of geostationary satellite networks, TCP-splitting Performance Enhancing Proxies are deployed. However, these cannot be applied in the case of encrypted transport headers as it is the case for VPNs or QUIC. We summarize performance evaluation results from multiple measurement campaigns. In a recently concluded project, multipath communication was used to combine the advantages of very heterogeneous communication paths: low data rate, low latency (e.g., DSL light) and high data rate, high latency (e.g., geostationary satellite).
Nach ersten, wenig erfolgreichen Entwicklungsimpulsen in den 1990er Jahren ist der Online-Lebensmitteleinzelhandel in Deutschland inzwischen in eine Expansionsphase übergegangen, die durch einen Wandel unterschiedlicher Einflussfaktoren begünstigt wurde, so zuletzt beispielsweise durch Rahmenbedingungen der Covid-19-Pandemie. Diese Entwicklung führt dabei nicht nur zu einer Herausbildung neuer oder transformierter Betriebsformen, sondern treibt auch einen Wandel von räumlichen Organisationstrukturen an, der veränderte Standortanforderungen handelnder Akteure mit sich bringt.
Diese Arbeit untersucht jene Veränderungen in Bezug auf Logistik, Lagerinfrastruktur und Filialsysteme anhand von ausgewählten Unternehmensbeispielen aus dem ergänzenden, reinen sowie kombinierten E-Commerce. Dabei bedient sich die Arbeit einerseits am theoretischen Ansatz der Multi-Level-Perspektive aus dem Blickwinkel der Transitionsforschung, um zu ergründen, warum eine Expansion des Online-Lebensmitteleinzelhandels heute im Gegensatz zu den 1990er Jahren begünstigt wird. Andererseits wird mithilfe eines Methodenmixes aus Sekundärdatenanalyse und qualitativer Forschung analysiert, welche Charakteristika die neuen Betriebsformen aufweisen und welche veränderten Ansprüche diese an die Organisationsstruktur sowie die Standorte von Handelsunternehmen stellen.
Dabei kann verdeutlicht werden, dass logistische Abläufe (wie auch der Ort der Warenübergabe) heute eine hohe Relevanz für die Charakteristik einer Betriebsform aufweisen und der Online-Lebensmitteleinzelhandel somit zu einer größeren Hybridisierung des Lebensmitteleinkaufs – überwiegend in urbanen Räumen – führt. Dies zeigt zudem, dass bisherige Betriebsformensystematiken nicht mehr ausreichen, um die komplexen Merkmale der neuen Betriebsformen und Vertriebsmodelle hinreichend abzubilden.

This paper deals with the origin of the hundred-year old theory of tierras bajas and tierras altas, focusing on the description of vowel weakening within that theory developed in 1921 by Henríquez Ureña. I argue that the early conception of vowel weakening and its dialectal distribution has strongly influenced the kind of research we have been conducting about this phonetic feature to this day. The aim of this study therefore, is to sharpen our understanding of the former zeitgeist of research and to stimulate further big data-based studies on vowel weakening overcoming the traditional dialectal division of tierras bajas and tierras altas.
Immersive virtual environments provide users with the opportunity to escape from the real world, but scripted dialogues can disrupt the presence within the world the user is trying to escape within. Both Non-Playable Character (NPC) to Player and NPC to NPC dialogue can be non-natural and the reliance on responding with pre-defined dialogue does not always meet the players emotional expectations or provide responses appropriate to the given context or world states. This paper investigates the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Natural Language Processing to generate dynamic human-like responses within a themed virtual world. Each thematic has been analysed against humangenerated responses for the same seed and demonstrates invariance of rating across a range of model sizes, but shows an effect of theme and the size of the corpus used for fine-tuning the context for the game world.

captar – cap(i)tar, facto – fato: Variation und Wandel bei Plosivsequenzen im Portugiesischen
(2015)
The present study is concerned with the production and perception of the stop consonant clusters /pt/ and /kt/ as well as CVC-Sequences /pVt/ and /kVt/ in European and Brazilian Portuguese (EP and BP, respectively). European and Brazilian Portuguese have the same syllable structure (Bisol 1999: 731, Mateus/d’Andrade 2000: 39), but are postlexically affected by contrary phenomena. After the occurence of phonological processes such as vowel reduction and deletion in European clusters and vowel epenthesis in Brazilian consonant clusters, the difference between lexical consonant clusters and CVC-sequences would be diminished in both varieties, so that EP would realize both as CC, while BP would realize both as CVC. In order to test whether clusters and CVC-sequences can be distinguished in production and perception, we discuss a physiological experiment and a perceptual study with participants of both varieties. The results show less overlap in BP than in EP. The reason for which is seen in the perception of intervocalic epenthetic elements even in lexical clusters in BP and more consonant clusters in EP.
The nameless protagonist of the postmodern novel Monsieur, written by Belgian author Jean-Philippe Toussaint, can be described as a rather strange man. He lacks ambition, a drive for action and seems to be unfit for daily life. He constantly fails to accomplish his predestined role as a real man, as for instance to pay the bill for dinner when dating a woman. The scope of the present paper is to analyse, on the one hand, how this novel deconstructs hegemonial concepts of masculinity but, on the other hand, is in itself also a parody of the latter.
This article will examine the cinematic approach to the trauma of the Falklands/Malvinas War in Lola Ariasʼ film Teatro de Guerra (AR/ES, 2018). The armed conflict between Ar-gentina and Great Britain in 1982 can be understood as a traumatic liminal experience, whose artistic reception pushes conventional aesthetics to their limits and calls for innova-tive representational strategies. Based on a cultural studies approach to the Falklands/Mal-vinas War as a collective trauma, this contribution will highlight selected moments of aes-thetic border crossing in Teatro de Guerra, by which the film succeeds in transcending boundaries between former enemies of the war.

Auf der Suche nach Frieden. Zur Gestaltung von Nachkriegsordnungen – eine archäologische Spurensuche
(2024)
Ein in der archäologischen Konfliktforschung bislang wenig beachtetes Thema, die Geschehnisse nach Kampfhandlungen und die Etablierung einer Nachkriegsordnung, verbunden mit der Entstehung symbolischer Landschaften als Element einer Erinnerungskultur, behandelt Stefan Burmeister, der unter anderem die Ereignisse nach dem sog. Karfreitagsgefecht der Bundeswehr am 2. April 2010 in Afghanistan und die Rolle der materiellen Kultur in diesem Kontext analysiert.
The novel Madame Chrysanthème (1887) and the essays collected in Japoneries d’automne (1889) written by French travel author Pierre Loti offer a paradoxical view of Japan during the Meiji period. In both travel writings, the author is torn between aesthetic japonism – which spread all over Europe at the end of the 19th century – and exotic expectations, i.e. the picturesque fascination of the Other. The latter, however, remains unsatisfied throughout his stay. In both writings, Pierre Loti provides an insight into Japan that entirely reflects the spirit of his time. Thereby, he contributes to an image of Japan, which will long remain vivid in the Occident. Contemporaries perceive Loti’s representation of Japan as a realistic testimony, tinged with both sensory impressions and his highly ambiguous feelings towards the distant country, which in the end remained incomprehensible to him.

This article concentrates on the Argentine author Esteban Echeverría who is known as the founding father of Romanticism in the River Plate region. The author of this article intends to show that the importance of Echeverría for the development of Argentine national literature goes beyond the spreading of Romanticist aesthetics. Especially his poem La cautiva (1837) has been regarded as the national epic poem of Argentina because it represents national landscape and the early days of national history. However, as the classification of this narrative poem as the national epic poem already indicates, Echeverría also contributed to the presence of this prestigious genre at the River Plate region. By investigating Echeverría‘s less known verse texts – namely the texts which were read by all Romantics but which have been neglected by literary studies so far – this article illustrates that Echeverría gave decisive impulses for the presence of the epic poem at the River Plate.
Utilizing multiple access networks such as 5G, 4G, and Wi-Fi simultaneously can lead to increased robustness, resiliency, and capacity for mobile users. However, transparently implementing packet distribution over multiple paths within the core of the network faces multiple challenges including scalability to a large number of customers, low latency, and high-capacity packet processing requirements. In this paper, we offload congestion-aware multipath packet scheduling to a smartNIC. However, such hardware acceleration faces multiple challenges due to programming language and platform limitations. We implement different multipath schedulers in P4 with different complexity in order to cope with dynamically changing path capacities. Using testbed measurements, we show that our CMon scheduler, which monitors path congestion in the data plane and dynamically adjusts scheduling weights for the different paths based on path state information, can process more than 3.5 Mpps packets 25 μs latency.

Auf der Grundlage einer quantitativen Analyse untersucht Hans-Jürgen Brandt Konfliktlösungen und deren Wandel unter der Bedingung des Rechtspluralismus in andinen Gemeinschaften Perus und Ecuadors. Die indigene Justiz ist einerseits wegen ihrer friedensstiftenden und integrativen Funktion angesehen, sie ist andererseits aber nicht universalistisch orientiert und steht, beispielsweise im Hinblick auf Körperstrafen, zuweilen in Widerspruch zu den Menschenrechten.
This paper discusses complementation strategies in Spanish, focusing on a specific construction most speakers are not aware of: the complementation clause preceded by the verb conocer. Not being a typical complement-taking verb, conocer surprises with a stable and persistent presence throughout the centuries, from Old Spanish to Modern Spanish. After giving an introduction into the field of complementation clauses and one of its main focus of study, grammatical mood, this study uses empirical data from the corpus programs CORDE, CREA and CORPES XXI to show the usage and prevalence of the construction in question. In doing so, this analysis gives a quantitative insight, exemplifying the results with several examples from all ages.
This article seeks to analyse urban representation in José Cardoso Pires’s Lisboa – Livro de Bordo (1997), a book dedicated to the author’s home city Lisbon, by focusing on its prevailing nautical and maritime imagery. This imagery as well as its tendency to design Lisbon as a city-ship shall be examined with regard to spatial construction in the Livro de Bordo. Urban sailing as well as the recurrent representations of the Portuguese capital’s spaces as heterotopias will be interpreted as approaches to subvert institutional and homogenic discourses on Lisbon.
