Language as Social Action
This Series explores new and exciting advances in the ways in which language both reflects and fashions social reality--and thereby constitutes critical means of social action. As well as these being central foci in face-to-face interactions across different cultures, they also assume significance in the ways that language functions in the mass medias, new technologies, organizations, and social institutions. Language As Social Action does not uphold apartheid against any particular methodological and/or ideological position, but, rather, promotes (wherever possible) cross-fertilization of ideas and empirical data across the many, all-too-contrastive, social scientific approaches to language and communication. Contributors to the Series will also accord due attention to the historical, political, and economic forces that contextually bound the ways in which language patterns are analyzed, produced, and received. The Series will also provide an important platform for theory-driven works that have profound, and oftentimes provocative, implications for social policy.

Ästhetische Signaturen
Autoren und Werke im historischen KontextISSN: 2191-5156
Literarische Texte gehorchen eigenen Konstruktionsprinzipien. Diese wandeln sich nicht nur im Laufe der Zeit, sondern auch innerhalb einer Epoche und im Werk eines Autors. Die Reihe Ästhetische Signaturen möchte den genuin ästhetischen und poetologischen Gehalt von Einzeltexten, Werken einzelner Autorinnen und Autoren und literarischer Epochen herausstellen. Sie macht es sich mit der Untersuchung der spezifischen Merkmale von literarischen Texten zur Aufgabe, die ästhetische Signatur von Werken und Werkgruppen herauszuarbeiten und über die Jahrhunderte hinweg zu vergleichen.
