Der lyrische Triebtäter André Pieyre de Mandiargues Gewalt und Erotik im Gedichtband L’Âge de craie
(2017)
The surrealists are not the only influence on the literary efforts of André Pieyre de Mandiargues – but it’s this influence that makes his oeuvre capable for an analysis based on Freudian theories. This way of an analysis is even more appropriate knowing that two of Mandiargues’ main and favourite themes – the eroticism and the violence – coincide with the Freudian life and destruction drive. Analysing the two poems Les filles des gobes and Les ruines de l’amour from the volume of poems L’Âge de craie, it’s these two paradigms that are clearly recognizable: Mandiargues’ symbolism reveals the duality of the domination by desires.
This article is an analysis and a comparison of German and French special language of music in the 18th century, more precisely about the terms used to describe the activity of singing. The analysis is based on two treatises about music theory. The first writing, Der Vollkommene Capellmeister, was written by Johann Mattheson in 1739 and the second, Code de musique pratique by Jean-Philippe Rameau was published in 1760. Both texts contain a chapter which gives explanations how to sing. The treatises include different types of technical words: specific terms easy identified as special language terms like names of ornaments in the music, special verbs standing for singing, and words and anaphors to describe tonality and dynamics. By having a look on the terms of music language, the influence of Italian and French words on German vocabulary of music becomes obvious. The vocabulary is often similar in both languages, but not always defined as a part of the special language of music.
Over the past few decades, a multitude of scientific research has been published on the topic of discourse markers, intending to define this linguistic phenomenon. Despite this increase of interest in discourse markers, fundamental questions pivotal to a clear definition remain unanswered. On basis of an empirical analysis of Spanish, Portuguese and Catalan discussions, this essay sets out to demonstrate that combining of the two prevailing research approaches (formal-syntactical vs. functional-pragmatic) has advantageous effects on the definition of discourse markers.
Much research on first language (L1) acquisition carried out in the last decades has proven that language acquisition is based on a biological endowment, the language faculty, which is triggered by the exposure to linguistic data. The language acquisition process undergoes similar stages in the same time span, independently of the specific language. Non-native acquisition differs from L1 acquisition, as the speaker already has an internal grammar with all parameters set. Transfer should therefore take place, bringing the learner to analyse the new input according to the properties of the L1, but a reanalysis is possible because of the availability of UG (Schwartz/Sprouse 1996). This article explores a syntactic domain, namely the properties of the functional categories constraining the verb position in main and subordinate clauses, by means of empirical data from Italian L1-speakers acquiring German as a second language (L2). It will be shown that the interlanguage grammars reflect properties of L1 and that resetting can be achieved, although optionality still exists and full convergence to the target language cannot be guaranteed.
Präpositionalphrasen mit der Präposition de im Französischen – Struktur und Realisierungsformen
(2015)
This paper investigates the linguistic properties of prepositional phrases containing de in the French language by means of a comprehensive compilation of possible formal realizations, for which examples are provided out of a chosen sample text. Special attention will be paid to the most frequently-cited formal realization, namely the combination of a preposition and a noun phrase. The corresponding forms will be divided into two classes, one with nominal phrases containing a phonetically realized or at least an underlying determiner, and one with nominal phrases in which no determiner is assumed to occur. This distinction will shed light on some of the difficulties that can arise in the assignment of the elements to either category due to the special interaction between the preposition de and the French system of determiners.
This article summarises an examination of sentence patterns in modern European standard Spanish, in order to give an answer to the following questions: How many different sentence patterns are there and which are the most frequent patterns in modern European Spanish? Based on the principles of verb valency, as established by Lucien Tesnière and further developed by Ulrich Engel and others, a corpus of 500 sentences is analysed, identifying the sentence patterns of the main clauses. The analysis shows 19 different sentence patterns, the most frequent of which is p-s-cd, that is, predicate – subject – direct object. Subsequently, the results are compared to those of a different study on Spanish sentence patterns.

Der „Discursus medicus et politicus“ von Tobias Geiger ist eine Handschrift aus dem Jahr 1656. Als eine Art Lebensbericht stellt das Werk ein Plädoyer für die Chirurgie als wichtigen Bestandteil der Medizin dar. Tobias Geiger skizziert nicht nur einen „rechten medicus“ in „tempore pacis, belli et pestis", sondern er beschäftigt sich zudem mit gesundheitspolitischen Themen, wie die Vereinigung von Chirurgie und Medizin in der Ausbildung, die Abschaffung sowohl von der Landfahrerei als auch von unqualifizierten Heilpersonen, die Prüfung des Heilpersonals sowie die Verbesserung der Spitäler. In der vorliegenden Dissertation wurde das Schriftstück zunächst editiert, die lateinischen Passagen übersetzt und kommentiert. Im Anschluss wurden die Inhalte für ein besseres Verständnis weiter aufgegliedert und in den historischen Kontext gestellt.
Das Kammerregister Papst Martins IV. 1281 - 1285 (Reg. Vat. 42) : Untersuchung und kritische Edition
(2004)
Die Dissertation beinhaltet die vollständige Edition des Kammerregisters Papst Martins IV. (Reg. Vat. 42, 1281 – 1285). Es ist das einzige Papstregister aus dem 13. Jahrhundert, das bisher nicht ediert worden war, und enthält 612 vollständige Briefe dieses Papstes. Ihr Inhalt ist aufschlussreich für die Geschichte des Kirchenstaates und das päpstliche Finanzwesen am Ende des 13. Jahrhunderts und eröffnet wertvolle Einsichten in die noch wenig erforschte päpstliche Kammer dieser Zeit.
