The volume presents an overview of recent cognitive linguistic research on Slavic languages. Slavic languages, with their rich inflectional morphology in both the nominal and the verbal system, provide an important testing ground for a linguistic theory that seeks to motivate linguistic structure. Therefore, the volume touches upon a wide range of phenomena: it addresses issues related to the semantics of grammatical case, tense, aspect, voice and word order, it looks into grammaticalization and language change and discusses sound symbolism. At the same time, the analyses presented address a v

The research area of motor control has become an increasingly multidisciplinary undertaking. Understanding the acquisition and performance of voluntary movements in biological and artificial systems requires the integration of knowledge from a range of disciplines such as neurophysiology, kinesiology, neuroscience, robotics, psychology, nonlinear dynamics, biomechanics and biology. This book brings together researchers from this wide range of disciplines to discuss the control and coordination of processes involved in perceptually guided actions.

Das Buch erschließt das schweizerische Sprachenrecht als Modell für die Bewältigung von Minderheitenproblemen in anderen vielsprachigen Gesellschaften. Alle wichtigen Bestimmungen und Judikate werden auszugsweise zitiert und analysiert. Aus dem Vergleich korrespondierender Regelungen ergeben sich Entwicklungslinien und allgemeingültige Prinzipien. Verschiedenheiten, die sich aus der unterschiedlichen Zusammensetzung der Sprachgruppen im Gliedstaat im Verhältnis zum Gesamtstaat erklären, begründen die These von der Relativität des Sprachenrechts im Bundesstaat. Die Studie zeigt, wie Min

This volume of specially commissioned essays takes a fresh look at the Viennese Jewish dramatist and prose writer Arthur Schnitzler. Fascinatingly, Schnitzler’s productive years spanned the final phase of the Habsburg monarchy, World War I, the First Austrian Republic, and the rise of National Socialism, and he realized earlier than many of his contemporaries the threat that racist anti-Semitism posed to the then almost complete assimilation of Austrian Jews. His writings also reflect the irresolvable conflict between emerging feminism and the relentless "scientific" discourse of misogyn
