Augsburg's "Allgemeine Zeitung" was a product of the famous Cotta publishing house of Stuttgart. As an economic enterprise it had to ensure its profitability while at the same time living up to the high standards of reporting it had set itself. The restrictions on the free expression of opinion operative in the Vormarz period made it imperative for the editiors to cooperate with the censorship authorities. This study breaks new ground in showing just how close the contracts between editors and censors actually were. The book combines a social history of the censors with a description of the everyday activity of a team of editors caught up between censorship and the aim of producing a 'liberal' newspaper. For the first time the links are traced between the economic situation of the Augsburg periodical - its sales figures, distribution structure and business profile - and the press policy of the Bavaria authorities and the development this underwent in the years 1815 to 1848."

Commercials are an integral part of television 'text' and can no longer be appropriately described as 'external' to it. Instead they need to be regarded in their interrelation with the text varieties encountered on the various TV channels, both public and private. The discourse-analytic classification of commercials and the place they have in the flow of TV programs demonstrates the (more or less) free interpermeability of the ongoing TV text. Certain phenomena describable as 'textual mimicry' cement this conclusion. An analysis of viewer mail shows clearly how commercials become part of the image of a particular channel. Swiss Television has commercials dubbed and adapted for the various language regions. These are not only modified in cultural terms but also adapted to the respective channel and its specific 'culture'.

For both new academics and those with some experience, writing articles of publishable quality can be particularly challenging. Developing the necessary skill set requires useful information, hard work, and the type of direction infrequently offered in research methods courses, leaving researchers to piece together resources on their own. This book addresses this critical topic in a format that is easy to teach and understand. It is a practical volume that teaches researchers how to identify their audience, clearly state the nature of their work, provide exceptional literature reviews, cite appropriately, and explicate their research. Beginning each chapter with reviewer comments, Writing Education Research is designed to help scholars understand both how to write effective research reports and how to get published. Practice exercises and resource lists in each chapter offer easy-to-access information about the review and publication process. A perfect accompaniment to standard research courses, this practical book demystifies the writing process for anyone looking to publish articles, chapters, or papers in education.

The study proceeds from the observation that culture and journalism are in a state of flux and that the classical "Arts" or "Review" sections are coming under increasing pressure to be more innovative and indeed to justify their own raison d'etre. Drawing on a wealth of material, the author employs qualitative and quantitative empirical methods to determine whether and how the print media are making a strategic response to this challenge. The results are a) extensive data on the thematic, functional and formal structure of 'reporting on the Arts', and b) strategy profiles for different types and examples of print media."

Bilder von Krieg und Nation - das sind die Vorstellungen, die es im burgerlichen Deutschland zur Zeit der Einigungskriege uber das Wechselspiel von militarischer Aktion und nationaler Identitat gegeben hat und die sich in einer Vielzahl von textuellen und visuellen Zeugnissen ausgesprochen haben. Diese Zeugnisse demonstrieren, wie stark der Nationsbegriff von militarischen Denkmustern durchdrungen war und wie entschieden das Bild und der Mythos der Einigungskriege die Konzepte fur den Aufbau des Nationalstaates und fur die nationale Selbstdefinition pragte. Insbesondere der deutsch-franzosische Krieg von 1870/71 geriet zu einem politischen Mythos, an den sich zentrale soziale Leitideen knupften: die Idee einer gelungenen Synthese von Fuhrung und Partizipation, die Idee einer Nation, die sich vor allem den Normen des Burgertums verpflichtet weiss. Im Ergebnis stellt sich der burgerliche Militarismus des Kaiserreichs in einem veranderten Licht dar. Er war weniger Ausdruck von Untertanengeist, weniger Storfaktor der Modernisierung, als vielmehr selbst moderner Ausdruck einer selbstbewussten Teilhabe der burgerlichen Schichten am neuen Nationalstaat.

With reference to a radio production directed and documented by the author himself, the study sets out to demonstrate that in presenting a figure in the media (, acting') the central concern is the shaping of the emotional expressive potential of language. At the same time, emotional expression is the main arena in which director and actors engage with each other on the, rightness' of the given role conception for the figure to being portrayed. This fact is also understood here as a reflection of the significance of emotional expression via language in everyday communication
