Polono-Germanica

Schriften der Kommission für die Geschichte der Deutschen in Polen e. V. Deutsche und Polen haben ein höchst wechselvolle gemeinsame Geschichte hinter sich. Von deutscher Seite herrschte lange Zeit ein Gefühl der Überheblichkeit und der Ignoranz gegenüber seinem größten östlichen Nachbarn vor. Dies betraf auch die Wissenschaft. Im neuen Europa von Partnern geht es nun darum, nicht nur mehr Informationen über das deutsch-polnische Verhältnis zur Verfügung zu stellen, sondern Polen auch als gleichberechtigt wahrzunehmen. Dies kann jedoch nicht allein durch nationale Nabelschau gelingen, sondern nur durch ein höheres Maß an allgemeiner Reflexion, die Einbeziehung der Erfahrungen anderer Staaten sowie die Würdigung der spezifischen Rolle der Regionen. Die Reihe Polono-Germanica möchte besonders dazu beitragen, die Geschichte der Deutschen in Polen angemessen zu verstehen und zu würdigen, ohne in Schablonen zu denken.

Estudos Germânicos

Estudos Germânicos is the publishing project of the Núcleo de Estudos de Línguas e Culturas Germânicas at the Universidade de Brasília, which promotes awareness of Germanic Studies in Brazil and throughout the world. The book series provides a forum for Brazilian and Portuguese-language scholarship on Germanic languages, literatures and cultures. A broader understanding of Germanic is encouraged, including research not only on German and Austrian but also on Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish and Afrikaans. The series is not limited to any particular field within literary studies, linguistics or translation studies and invites scholarship from the fields of anthropology, sociology, music, film studies and philosophy. An area of particular emphasis is the analysis of translations of all types of texts (literary, philosophical, sociological, etc.) both from and into the languages in question and their impact and distribution in the respective target cultures. This focal interest also implies that translations of scholarly works will be considered for publication. The primary language of the series is Portuguese, but publications in other languages will be considered. Proposals for both monographs and edited collections are welcome. A Estudos Germânicos é uma publicação seriada do Núcleo de Estudos de Línguas e Culturas Germânicas da Universidade de Brasília, o qual tem por objetivo promover e divulgar a pesquisa em áreas diversas dos Estudos Germânicos no Brasil e no mundo. Assim, pretende ser um fórum para a divulgação de trabalhos acadêmicos que versem sobre línguas, literaturas e culturas germânicas, compreendidas aí as realidades alemã, austríaca, holandesa, sueca, norueguesa, dinamarquesa e africâner. Os trabalhos publicados na Estudos Germânicos não se restringem aos campos dos estudos linguísticos, literários ou de tradução, e pesquisadores de outras disciplinas das ciências humanas e sociais, como antropologia, história, sociologia, música, cinema e filosofia, estão convidados a enviar seus textos. A Estudos Germânicos tem particular interesse pela análise de traduções que tenham as línguas germânicas como línguas de partida ou de chegada, assim como pela avaliação do impacto e da distribuição dessas traduções nas culturas de chegada. Traduções de textos relevantes nas áreas acadêmicas a que a série se dedica também poderão ser propostas para publicação. Embora a língua de trabalho da Estudos Germânicos seja o português, textos redigidos em outros idiomas poderão ser aceitos. Propostas para a publicação de monografia e coletâneas de artigos são bem-vindas.
