SUMMARY This paper studies systematic relationships between two sound changes, the High Germanic Consonant Shift and the West Germanic Anaptyxis. Since the High Germanic languages, i.e., High German and Lombardic, are a division of the West Germanic Sprachbund, it might be thought — and this is indeed the general view — that the more extensive West Germanic change necessarily antedates the more limited High Germanic change. But an examination of the relative chronology of the two changes in one of the languages that underwent both of them, Old High German, shows that, on the contrary, the systematic order of the two changes is the opposite: The better theory of the history of the Old High German phonological and morphological system is attained by the assumption that the High Germanic Consonant Shift antedates the West Germanic Anaptyxis. This result is in agreement with the author's overall theory of the Germanic Consonant Shifts by which the bifurcation of the Proto-Germanic tenues into the Low Germanic aspirates and the High Germanic affricates is one of the very oldest Germanic innovations. RÉSUMÉ L'article étudie les rapports systématiques entre deux changements phonétiques, à savoir celui de la mutation consonantique haut-germaine et celui de l'anaptyxis ouest-germaine. Comme les langues haut-germaines, i.e., le haut-allemand et le langobarde, représentent une division de l'union linguistique ouest-germaine, on pourra penser — et cela est en effet la position majoritaire — que le changement ouest-germain, étant le plus répandu, doit chronologiquement précéder le changement haut-germain plus restreint. Cependant, une examination de la chronologie relative dans une de ces langues qui a été sous-jettée à ces deux changements, i.e., le vieux haut-allemand, montre, au contraire, que l'ordre systématique de ces deux changements est opposé: On arrivera à une meilleure théorie de l'histoire du système phonologique et morphologique du vieux haut-allemand si'l on prend comme hypothèse que le changement consonantique du haut-germain précède chronologiquement l'ana-ptyxis ouest-germaine. Un tel résultat est en accord avec la théorie globale de l'auteur selon laquelle la bifurcation des occlusives proto-germain en aspirés bas-germains et affriqués haut-germains est une des plus vieilles innovations germaniques. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG In diesem Artikel werden systematische Beziehungen zwischen zwei Laut-verânderungen untersucht, der Hochgermanischen Lautverschiebung und der Westgermanischen Anaptyxe. Da die hochgermanischen Sprachen, Hoch-deutsch und Langobardisch, eine Abteilung des westgermanischen Sprach-bundes bilden, liegt es nahe, anzunehmen, wie es auch der allgemeinen Auf-fassung entspricht, daß der weiter verbreitete westgermanische Wandel dem enger eingegrenzten hochgermanischen Wandel vorausgegangen sein müsse. Aber eine Untersuchung der relativen Chronologie der beiden Lautwandel im Althochdeutschen als einer derjenigen Sprachen, die beiden Veränderungen ausgesetzt waren, zeigt, daB die systematische Beziehung zwischen ihnen die genau entgegengesetzte ist: Man erhält die bessere Theorie der Geschichte des althochdeutschen Laut- und Formensystems, wenn man annimmt, daB die Hochgermanische Lautverschiebung der Westgermanischen Anaptyxe voraus-ging. Dieses Ergebnis steht im Einklang mit der ubergreifenden Lautverschie-bungstheorie des Autors, der zufolge die Verzweigung der urgermanischen Tenues in die niedergermanischen Aspiraten und die hochgermanischen Affrika-ten eine der allerâltesten germanischen Isoglossen gestiftet hat.

Full textAbstract:
La présente étude se donne pour but d'analyser l'œuvre romanesque de Sylvie Germain par le biais du concept d'attente. Notre intérêt a été suscité par l'articulation interne des premiers livres, tributaire de la subtile mise en place d'un réseau proleptique qui est symptomatique non seulement de l'instauration d'un pacte, à la suite duquel le lecteur esquisse son horizon d'attente, mais également d'un effort que l'auteur déploie -consciemment ou non - afin de garder une bonne emprise sur le récit. Si l'écrivain ne développe pas de théorie autour de l'attente et n'en fait pas le pivot de son écriture, les récits abondent en situations qui sont sous-tendues par elle. Le titre de la thèse rend compte des deux niveaux auxquels nous avons interrogé la production romanesque de Sylvie Germain, à savoir textuel et diégétique. Le tout s'organise à partir d'une structure ternaire dont le point de départ est l'ébauche d'une poétique de l'attente reposant principalement sur des avant-textes, sur un appareil paratextuel très dense et sur l'emploi d'anticipations par infusion de détails qui créent un effet d'échos et de correspondances par rapport au développement diégétique. La deuxième partie de notre analyse interroge les multiples manières dont l'attente est vécue par les personnages, psychiquement aussi bien que physiologiquement. Quelle que soit sa forme, l'attente reste une expérience temporelle. La dernière partie de notre étude esquisse un panorama des perceptions du temps à travers cette expérience vécue. Au terme de notre travail, nous espérons avoir réussi un exercice de synthèse à partir d'un concept qui échappe aux règles, ainsi qu'une incursion dans le champ de la temporalité peu abordé par rapport à cette œuvre.

Full textAbstract:
A la croisée de la littérature et des sciences humaines -philosophie, sociologie, psychanalyse-, ce travail se propose d'interroger la spécificité, voire la rupture que représentent, dans la tradition romanesque, les six premiers romans de Sylvie Germain -Le livre des nuits, Nuit d'ambre, Jours de colère, L'enfant méduse, Immensités, Eclats de sel- et de découvrir, dans cette esthétique singulière, une éthique susceptible de répondre aux interrogations qui se posent à l'individu immédiatement contemporain. Le surgissement du merveilleux, le foisonnement des images puisées à la frontière du rêve et de l'inconscient permettent de définir l'aventure romanesque comme une aventure intérieure -personnage ou lecteur-, à restaurer ses liens au monde visible.

Lo scopo di questo lavoro è analizzare la corrispondenza fra Sophie Germain e Carl Friedrich Gauss ed alcuni manoscritti di Sophie Germain. La tesi è suddivisa in tre capitoli, il primo è incentrato sulla vita di Sophie Germain, il suo ambiente socio-culturale ed i principali oggetti di studio. Nel secondo e nel terzo capitolo l'analisi si sposta sulla corrispondenza, in particolare sullo studio della prima e della nona lettera che ruotano attorno alla risoluzione dell'ultimo Teorema di Fermat per alcune categorie di numeri che oggi vengono chiamati "Numeri primi di Sophie Germain". Proprio a tal fine nel terzo capitolo, oltre alla nona lettera, si esaminano altri tre manoscritti conservati alla Bibliothèque Nationale de France a Parigi.

Full textAbstract:
L’œuvre insolite et syncrétique de Sylvie Germain occupe une place à part dans la littérature contemporaine. Ses romans grouillent d’images originales et de visions fulgurantes sorties de l’inconscient ou nourries de références mythologiques et bibliques, tandis que ses personnages cheminent « à contre-nuit » vers la lumière. Or, le style foisonnant et baroque des premiers romans tend à s’épurer, à se dépouiller et à s’apaiser dans le deuxième versant de l’œuvre, constitué des romans pragois et des récits initiatiques centrés sur la quête des origines. Comment et pourquoi passe-t-on d’une écriture ostentatoire à une prose poétique hantée par le silence ? Cet effacement ne correspond pas seulement, selon nous, à un projet esthétique, mais à une quête spirituelle : l’auteur tente de capter des échos et des traces du silence divin au cœur du visible. Elle s’engage dans une voie nouvelle qui « consent au silence […] sans le clore sur un vide définitif » et tente, à l’heure de la tentation du nihilisme, de renouer les liens perdus avec la transcendance. L’objectif de notre étude, guidée par une démarche poétique et phénoménologique, est de mettre en relief la vision mystique de l’écrivain, imprégnée de la tradition de la théologie négative. Il s’agit de cerner (grâce à l’étude des images, du rythme et de la prosodie) les caractéristiques d’une écriture paradoxale dont l’enjeu est d’exprimer l’Absence dans une langue sensuelle et incarnée. Nous analyserons aussi, à l’aune de la pensée de Merleau-Ponty, Levinas et Heidegger, la manière dont l’auteur emprunte des voies obliques pour explorer l’envers du visible et « la prose du monde », entre poésie et philosophieSylvie Germain’s unusual and syncretic work has found a special place in contemporary literature. Her novels swarm with inventive images and dazzling visions originating from the unconscious or nourished by mythological and biblical references, while her characters plod “against darkness” towards the Light. Now, proliferating and baroque style of the early novels tends to simplicity, purity and calm in the second part of her work, which consists in the Prague novels and initiatory tales focussing on the quest of origins. How and why is it possible to change from ostentatious writing to poetical prose haunted by silence? In our opinion, this purification is not only linked to an aesthetical project, but has as well a spiritual foundation : the author attempts to detect echoes and traces of God’s silence amidst the Visible. She is taking a way, which “consents to silence without closing it into a final emptiness”. At the time when others are tempted by nihilism, she tries to revive lost ties with transcendence. Our study, based on a poetical and phenomenological approach, aims at bringing out the mystical vision of Sylvie Germain, an author impregnated with the tradition of negative theology. Our purpose is to outline – by analysis of images, rhythm and prosody – the main characteristics of paradoxical style, the stakes of which are to express Absence by a sensual and incarnated language. We also analyse – referring to Merleau-Ponty, Levinas and Heidegger, how the author, using both poetry and philosophy, takes oblique paths in order to explore the reverse side of the Visible and the “prose of the world”

Full textAbstract:
Avec une oeuvre dense et complexe, Sylvie Germain constitue aujourd'hui l'une des figures marquantes du paysage littéraire français. A partir d'un corpus formé d'une dizaine de romans, représentatifs de son oeuvre, cette étude essaie d'explorer son univers romanesque qui trouverait son fondement dans le Cosmos et ses quatre éléments. L'objet de cette thèse est donc l'étude de la place et de la fonction symboliques de l'imagination matérielle dans l'oeuvre romanesque de Sylvie Germain. Cette dernière met l'accent sur l'importance de l'hérédité, de la racine, de la transmission et des éléments qui marquent une mémoire familiale. En adoptant les approches thématique et psychanalytique, cette étude est menée sous l'angle du couple antithétique : enracinement/déracinement que nous nous proposons d'approcher d'abord dans son acception géographique pour l'étendre ensuite à toute forme d'arrachement, qu'il soit psychologique ou métaphysique. Nous nous proposons également de démontrer que ces deux désirs d'enracinement et de déracinement créent une nouvelle typologie humaine qui remplacerait l'ancienne typologie nomades/sédentaires. La volonté de déracinement se traduit souvent par une volonté de faire table rase du passé et de s'arracher à une filiation, tandis que l'enracinement exige un travail de réconciliation avec le passé et une quête de la filiation. Enfin, pour écrire cette oeuvre de mémoire, Germain développe un jeu intertextuel et intratextuel et inscrit son texte dans la filiation des récits de commencements et dans une tradition littéraire auxquels elle ne cesse de se ressourcerWith a dense and complex work of fiction, Sylvie Germain has become a prominent figure in modern French literature. Refering to a large corpus of works illustrative of her fiction, this study attempts to explore her fictional universe that is based on the cosmos and its four elements. The subject of this thesis is therefore the study of space and the symbolic function of material imagination in Germain's novels. In fact, she puts emphasis on the importance of inheritance, roots, transmission, and the elements that mark a family memory. Germain resurrects the rootedness and uprootedness problematic that appeared in French literature in the beginning of the 20th century. Following the thematic and psychoanalytical approaches, this study is built on the binary opposition: rootedness and uprootedness, first within a geographical framework, which later extends to every form of extraction, be it psychological or metaphysical. This study also attempts to prove that both desires of rootedness and uprootedness create a new human typology that would replace the old nomadic/sedentary typology. The will for uprootedness is often translated by the will to make a tabula rasa of the past and to split from a filiation, whereas rootedness requires reconciliation with the past and implies a quest for filiation. Finally, in order to depict memory, Germain develops a pattern of intertextuality and intratextuality, inscribing her text in the line of genesis narratives and in a literary tradition, which both ceaselessly inspire her work

La tesi intitolata "Dalla «postmémoire» alla scrittura dell’oblio nell’opera di Sylvie Germain" si pone l’obbiettivo di analizzare l’opera della scrittrice francese contemporanea Sylvie Germain alla luce di alcune elaborazioni teoriche sulla dialettica memoria/oblio. Basandoci sulle principali teorie-guida relative alla «memoria culturale» teorizzate da Maurice Halbwachs,Pierre Nora,Tzvetan Todorov,Paul Ricoeur e Aleida Assmann,la nostra analisi si è successivamente concentrata sugli studi condotti attorno al concetto di «postmemory» elaborato dalla studiosa americana Marianne Hirsch. Scopo di questa prospettiva critica è quello di leggere l'opera germainiana come espressione di una «affiliative postmemory», risultato della connessione generazionale di coloro che non hanno vissuto direttamente un trauma con la «literal second generation». Attraverso un approccio interdisciplinare che ha coinvolto gli studi sulla memoria culturale in rapporto alla questione del gender, si è inoltre evidenziata la specificità del ruolo rivestito dai personaggi femminili nei romanzi di Germain che assumono un peso determinante nella trasmissione della memoria individuale e collettiva, studio che ci ha permesso di sottolineare la funzione attiva svolta dalle protagoniste delle opere della scrittrice. Nella fase conclusiva sono state esaminate le opere più recenti di Sylvie Germain pubblicate tra il 2008 e il 2011 in cui l’autrice sembra avvertire la necessità di controbilanciare il peso della «troppa memoria» con una giusta dose di oblio. Sono state inoltre affrontate la questione della responsabilità etica e l’idea di debito nei confronti della memoria familiare e collettiva: la scrittura stessa diventa così per Germain lo strumento attraverso il quale l’autrice assume il ruolo di passeuse de mémoire per le generazioni future.This thesis is entitled "From «postmemory» to the writing of oblivion in the works of Sylvie Germain", and it examines the dialectic between memory and oblivion in the works of French contemporary writer Sylvie Germain. The thesis is based on the theories of «cultural memory» proposed by Maurice Halbwachs, Pierre Nora, Tzvetan Todorov, Paul Ricoeur, Aleida Assmann, and the studies about «postmemory» proposed by Marianne Hirsch. The purpose of this critical perspective is to read the works of Sylvie Germain as an example of «affiliative postmemory» (a kind of memory that results from a generational connection between those who haven’t directly experienced a particular trauma with the so-called «literal second generation»). Moreover, by means of an interdisciplinary approach the thesis aims at establishing a link between memory studies and Gender studies. It also tries to highlight the active function and the prominent role played by female characters in Germain’s novels, both as individuals and as voices for collective memory transmission. Analyzing the most recent works of Sylvie Germain (published between 2008 and 2011), the thesis focuses on the necessity of the writer to counterbalance the weight of «too much memory» by a good deal of oblivion. It also discusses and develops the questions concerning ethic responsibility and the debt to familial and collective memories. This analysis shows how Germain seems to take the role of passeuse de mémoire for future generations through her writing.

Full textAbstract:
Cette recherche vise à mettre en évidence, sous un angle mythocritique et intertextuel, la manière originale dont Sylvie Germain utilise dans son oeuvre les récits, les personnages, les intertextes bibliques et comment la notion de rédemption structure chacun de ses romans, transcendant l'idée du mal. La première partie permet une analyse de l'influence stylistique des textes bibliques sur l'oeuvre romanesque de Sylvie Germain et sur la manière dont la romancière utilise, s'approprie et transforme les récits testamentaires. La deuxième partie s'intéresse à la façon dont les personnages germaniens, tel le peuple hébreu au désert; partent en quête de la Terre Promise, c'est-à-dire d'eux-mêmes. A travers un temps et un espace biblique, que l'auteur met en place, ils partent à la recherche de leur identité profonde : de leur nom, de leur mémoire et de leur filiation. Une troisième partie développera la question de la chute et du mal. Cette partie permettra de voir comment, dans chacun des romans les personnages doivent vivre un véritable chemin de croix, descendre vers le très bas et rejeter Dieu avant de pouvoir entrevoir leur propre culpabilité. La dernière partie développe la notion de rédemption qui est au coeur de l'oeuvre de Sylvie Germain. En effet, pour parvenir au pardon, chacun doit apprendre à faire silence, à s'accepter pécheur, à vivre un temps de purification pour enfin entendre ce Dieu, mendiant son amour, infiniment miséricordieux, qu'il a rejeté toute sa vie. L'étude vise à mettre en évidence la perspective neuve selon laquelle cette notion forte de rédemption est au centre des romans germaniens et qu'elle implique tout le cheminement des personnages.

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with the issue of silence in the thinking and work of the contemporary French author Sylvie Germain. The starting point for deliberation is the author’s essay Acte de silence (2011), in which silence is conceived both as a manifestation of God’s discreet appearance and as an act of humility and patience of man. The presence of silence seems to be a necessary condition for mystical experience. Silence understood in this way is the subject of the analysis in a selected passage from Germain’s novel L’Enfant Méduse (1991), which suggests some specific features of the author’s poetics of the transcendent, also present in her later novel work.

Because of the Holocaust, World War II is the focal point for capturing spiritual experience in the 20th-century literature. How did the transformation of French spiritual literature from the poet Marie Noël in the 1st half of the century to the novelist Sylvie Germain at its end come about? Using examples from their work, this paper shows both authors’ sources of inspiration and highlights the means of expressing spirituality of a person going through an inner struggle. Although the authors describe a dark night, both of them they have a desire to overcome it, to reconcile with God, with the world and with themselves.

Full textAbstract:
With the formation of the Parliamentary Republic of Latvia in the early 1920s, higher education in Latvia underwent the changes that affected the Baltic Germans. The necessity to obtain higher education in the Latvian language was perceived with mixed feelings, and the interest in the establishment and development of the University of Latvia (UL) and involvement in the reorganisation of the Riga Polytechnic Institute (RPI) went hand in hand with the reluctance to accept the full Latvianization of higher education. In the circumstances, the students used contacts established by their student corporations and sought for higher education in Germany, where it could be obtained in German but later equated to the higher education obtained in Latvia. Thus, the aim of the article is to evaluate the possibilities for the Baltic German students from the parliamentary state of Latvia (1920–1934) to study in German universities. The research is based on the documents of UL and Baltic German student corporations from the Latvian State Historical Archive (LVVA), Baltic German student corporation press (journals and anniversary books) kept in the UL Library, UL activity reports (1924–1931) stored in UL Museum history collection and available research on the Baltic German minority in the Parliamentary Republic of Latvia. The study showed that during the parliamentary period, the Latvian Baltic Germans used the state granted minority rights to find alternative ways to obtain higher education in German. The parliamentary system did not discriminate against the Baltic Germans for their use of the German language and allowed them to study in Germany but demanded that their diplomas be equated with the diploma obtained at the UL. The contacts established by student corporations helped Baltic German students to better integrate into the German study environment offering accommodation on the premises of student corporations in Germany. At the same time, additional knowledge through lectures on the political situation of Baltic Germans in the parliamentary state of Latvia did not allow them losing their historical connection with the Baltic region.

Full textAbstract:
On the basis of linguistic analysis at different levels of language, the cognitive method and elements of discourse analysis, this article studies ways, how the identity of Russian Germans is represented in poetic texts in Russian and German. Linguistic markers of the identity of Russian Germans, as well as key concepts, are identified, figurative means are analyzed. The article finds out the multiplicity and ambivalence of self-determination of Russian Germans, as well as the inalienability of both countries — Russia and Germany — for their identity.

The article is devoted to the Germans who lived and worked in the Russian Far East in the second half of the XIX — early XX centuries. The author identifies two groups in the German diaspora of the region. The first group is Russia Germans who moved to the Russian Far East from central regions of Russia. They were mostly officials, military personnel, and representatives of the intelligentsia. The second group is Germans who arrived directly from Germany and other countries. Most of them were entrepreneurs and employees of their firms. The article shows the contribution of the Germans to the development of the Far Eastern region of the Russian Empire.

Switzerland is located at the junction of western, central and southern Europe, is landlocked and borders Italy to the south, France to the west, Germany to the north, and Austria and Liechtenstein to the east. The country is geographically divided between the Alps, the Swiss plateau and the Jura, covering a total area of 41,285 km². While the Alps occupy most of the territory, Switzerland’s population of approximately 8.5 million people is mainly concentrated on the plateau, where the largest cities are located, including two global ones – Zurich and Geneva. Switzerland is at the crossroads of Germanic and Romance Europe and has four main linguistic and cultural regions: German, French, Italian and Romansh.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract A Student Exchange Program began with four students from Germany visiting Siemens-Westinghouse and the University of Central Florida in Summer, 1999, as an initiative from Siemens training officials in Muelheim, Germany. In Summer 2000, a program with four German apprentices coming to the U.S. and four U.S. interns working and studying in Germany was very successful. The initial UCF students continued part-time work at Siemens during their senior year and were offered full-time employment upon graduation. Not only did the German students complete their work, but some of them returned for employment in the U.S. Siemens, as a multinational enterprise, is preparing technologists and engineers to understand product design and manufacturing for integrated systems in international markets. Students will benefit from an understanding of the systems, standards, and cultures involved. The internship model being developed uses the best from the German and U.S. systems and merits further study and implementation.

Full textAbstract:
Pressure from land use patterns, climate change, and urbanisation on rivers is an important socio-ecological issue that requires management and biomonitoring. The ecologi-cal status of the Venta River at Kuldīga was assessed using bioindicators, specifically diatoms, which are widely used in monitoring of streams and rivers worldwide, especially in European countries. Ecological status was defined by calculating Specific Pollution Sensitivity Index (IPS). In addition, diatom diversity was determined in the studied part of the river. A total of six sam-pling sites were selected along a 10 km stretch of the river in the territory of Kuldīga. The aver-age distance between sampling sites was 1.5 km. A total of 118 taxa were identified in all samples. The highest species diversity (67 taxa) was observed in sample 2. Individual rarefaction was calculated if exactly 500 diatom valves were counted in all samples. The lowest species diversity was observed in samples 6 (45 taxa) and 6A (17 taxa). Samples 1 and 5 were the most similar in terms of species composition. This is probably because both sites have similar physical characteristics that include sandy beaches with a slow current. The most abundant diatoms were Cocconeis placentula Ehrenberg, Amphora pediculus (Kützing) Grunow, Nitzschia fossilis (Grunow) Grunow, Navicula capitatoradiata Germain ex Gasse, Navicula antonii Lange-Bertalot, Amphora libyca Ehrenberg, and Sellaphora nigri (De Notaris) Wetzel & Ector, which are commonly found in eutrophic waters. Diatom analysis suggests that the Venta might be at risk for eutrophication. For the most abundant diatom taxa, the suscep-tibility to pollution was assessed as III (medium), but there were also diatoms with IV and V (very sensitive to pollution). This shows that the Venta River in Kuldīga overall has low levels of pollution. All study sites were rated as having ‘good’ ecological status according to the IPS index (12.4-14.1 IPS).

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Before 1988 the German service company Transnuklear (TN) had a licence to treat radioactive waste products for interim storage facilities. For this purpose a large amount of radioactive waste was transported to Mol, Belgium. Due to mismanagement at TN all the German waste remained in Belgium until the Belgian and the German government agreed to transfer it back to Germany. By appointment of the licensing and surveillance authorities TÜV Hannover/Sachsen-Anhalt e.V. had been monitoring the quality assurance measures for waste products bound for disposal in a final repository or for interim storage facilities in Germany. Due to insufficient documentation, the characterisation of the different waste types took a long time. Sampling plans were worked out. A stepwise procedure was established to qualify the waste for transportation to Germany. Different techniques have been developed for inspection and sampling of the waste to ensure the fulfilment of the acceptance criteria of the final storage or interim storage facilities. The first waste was transported in 1991. The last waste packages left Belgium in January, 2001.

In Applied Human Factors and Ergonomics Conference (2022). AHFE International, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.54941/ahfe1001231.
Full textAbstract:
Cultural differences in the perception of products can be studied by using the Repertory Grid Technique (RGT) where the idiosyncratic views of individuals are studied. This study examines the perceptions and prioritization of attributes with regard to six existing vehicle cluster instrument designs with thirteen designers each from India and Germany along with thirteen non-designers each from India and Germany (i.e., comparing German designers with Indian non-designers and Indian designers with German non-designers). The elicited constructs from interviews using RGT were categorized according to Hassenzhal’s (2004) Pragmatic and Hedonic qualities and their subcategories. The categorized data was compared along three metrics of Dominance, Importance and Descriptive Richness. Comparing designers and non-designers across cultures indicated differences in perceptions owing to the cultural background and education in design. For example, German designers emphasized the pragmatic aspects in comparison to Indian non-designers. Alternatively, Indian designers placed more importance to the Identification aspects (ex., exclusive, premium, sporty, etc) when compared to German non-designers. The design implications of these findings provide hints to designers on how to go about designing for Indian and German audiences.

Full textAbstract:
ALKOR cruise AL548 took place as part of the EMFF (European Maritime and Fisheries Fund)-funded project BASTA (Boost Applied munition detection through Smart data inTegration and AI workflows; https://www.basta-munition.eu) and as continuation of the munition monitoring started within the BMBF-funded project UDEMM (Environmental Monitoring for the Delaboration of Munition in the Sea; https://udemm.geomar.de/). In October 2018, a first cruise (POS530 MineMoni2018) was conducted, to gather data for a broad baseline study in the German Baltic Sea. Results show a moderate contamination level on regional and coastal scale, but indicate higher levels for specific local areas. Within UDEMM, expertise was developed to detect, exactly locate and monitor munition (e.g. torpedoes, sea mines, ground mines) on the seafloor using optical and hydroacoustic means. In addition, chemical analyses of dissolved contaminants in the water and sediments was performed. Data acquired during this cruise are used in BASTA, which aims for enhanced munition detection via AUV-based artificial intelligence applied on multi-sensor datasets. At the same time, the project ExPloTect (Ex-situ, near-real-time exPlosive compound deTection in seawater) (also EMFF-funded) addresses the need for an innovative approach to detect explosive compounds in seawater. A prototype system was used and successfully tested for the first time during this cruise. The main focus was placed onto the two already known dumpsites Kolberger Heide and Lübeck Bight. Additionally, new areas Falshöft (Schleswig-Holstein) and Cadet Channel, Trollegrund and Großklützhöved (Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) were explored. In each area high-resolution multibeam mapping was performed and contact lists, indicating potential munition objects were produced on board. AUV surveys were conducted to ground-truth possible contacts via detailed photograph and magnetometer mapping. This was complemented with towed video (TV)-CTD profiles. The transits to and between those sites were planned along former constraint routes during WWII. These routes were main targets of the British Air Force and mines and bombs can be expected along these ways. During transits water samples were taken with on a CTD- (conductivity, temperature, depth) rosette-mounted Niskin bottles in regular distances, in order to obtain a comprehensive understanding munition compounds (inter alia trinitrotoluene (TNT)) measurements across the German Baltic Sea.

Full textAbstract:
The article is dedicated to the examination and comparison of the justification of occupation of a neighboring country in the German (1938) and Russian (2014) media. The objective of the study is to reveal the mechanics of the application of the classical manipulative method of substituting of aggressor and victim on the material of German and Russian propaganda in 1938 and in 2014 respectively. According to the results of the study, clear parallels between the two information strategies can be traced at the level of the condemnation of internal aggression against a national minority loyal to Berlin / Moscow and its political representative (the Sudeten Germans – the pro-Russian Ukrainians, as well as the security forces of the Yanukovych regime); the reflections on dangers that Czechoslovakia / Ukraine poses to itself and to its neighbors; condemnation of the violation of the cultural rights of the minority that the occupier intends to protect (German language and culture – Russian language and culture); the historical parallels designed to deepen the modern conflict, to show it as a long-standing and a natural one (“Hussites” – “Banderites”). In the manipulative strategy of both media, the main focus is not on factual fabrication, but on the bias selection of facts, due to which the reader should have an unambiguous understanding of who is the permanent aggressor in the conflict (Czechoslovakia, Czechs – Ukraine, Ukrainians), and who is the permanent victim (Germans – Russians, Russian speakers). The substitution of victim and aggressor in the media in both cases became one of the most important manipulative strategies designed to justify the German occupation of part of Czechoslovakia and the Russian occupation of part of Ukraine.

Full textAbstract:
Germany is a parliamentary democracy (The Federal Government, 2021) with two politically independent levels of 1) Federal (Bund) and 2) State (Länder or Bundesländer), and has a highly differentiated decentralized system of Government and administration (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit, 2021). The 16 states in Germany have their own government and legislations which means the federal authority has the responsibility of formulating policy, and the states are responsible for implementation (Franzke, 2020). The Federal Government supports the states in dealing with extraordinary danger and the Federal Ministry of the Interior (BMI) supports the states' operations with technology, expertise and other services (Federal Ministry of Interior, Building and Community, 2020). Due to the decentralized system of government, the Federal Government does not have the power to impose pandemic emergency measures. In the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, in order to slowdown the spread of coronavirus, on 16 March 2020 the federal and state governments attempted to harmonize joint guidelines, however one month later State governments started to act more independently (Franzke & Kuhlmann, 2021). In Germany, health insurance is compulsory and more than 11% of Germany’s GDP goes into healthcare spending (Federal Statistical Office, 2021). Health related policy at the federal level is the primary responsibility of the Federal Ministry of Health. This ministry supervises institutions dealing with higher level of public health including the Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices (BfArM), the Paul-Ehrlich-Institute (PEI), the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) and the Federal Centre for Health Education (Federal Ministry of Health, 2020). The first German National Pandemic Plan (NPP), published in 2005, comprises two parts. Part one, updated in 2017, provides a framework for the pandemic plans of the states and the implementation plans of the municipalities, and part two, updated in 2016, is the scientific part of the National Pandemic Plan (Robert Koch Institut, 2017). The joint Federal-State working group on pandemic planning was established in 2005. A pandemic plan for German citizens abroad was published by the German Foreign Office on its website in 2005 (Robert Koch Institut, 2017). In 2007, the federal and state Governments, under the joint leadership of the Federal Ministry of the Interior and the Federal Ministry of Health, simulated influenza pandemic exercise called LÜKEX 07, and trained cross-states and cross-department crisis management (Bundesanstalt Technisches Hilfswerk, 2007b). In 2017, within the context of the G20, Germany ran a health emergency simulation exercise with representatives from WHO and the World Bank to prepare for future pandemic events (Federal Ministry of Health et al., 2017). By the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, on 27 February 2020, a joint crisis team of the Federal Ministry of the Interior (BMI) and the Federal Ministry of Health (BMG) was established (Die Bundesregierung, 2020a). On 4 March 2020 RKI published a Supplement to the National Pandemic Plan for COVID-19 (Robert Koch Institut, 2020d), and on 28 March 2020, a law for the protection of the population in an epidemic situation of national scope (Infektionsschutzgesetz) came into force (Bundesgesundheitsministerium, 2020b). In the first early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Germany managed to slow down the speed of the outbreak but was less successful in dealing with the second phase. Coronavirus-related information and measures were communicated through various platforms including TV, radio, press conferences, federal and state government official homepages, social media and applications. In mid-March 2020, the federal and state governments implemented extensive measures nationwide for pandemic containment. Step by step, social distancing and shutdowns were enforced by all Federal States, involving closing schools, day-cares and kindergartens, pubs, restaurants, shops, prayer services, borders, and imposing a curfew. To support those affected financially by the pandemic, the German Government provided large economic packages (Bundesministerium der Finanzen, 2020). These measures have adopted to the COVID-19 situation and changed over the pandemic. On 22 April 2020, the clinical trial of the corona vaccine was approved by Paul Ehrlich Institute, and in late December 2020, the distribution of vaccination in Germany and all other EU countries

Full textAbstract:
On 4 February 2022, the Polish Journal of Laws published a new ordinance of the Minister of Education and Science, implementing cuts in the funding of education of German as a minority language. Consequently, the hourly length of such lessons will be significantly reduced. This regulation applies exclusively to the German minority, and the official motive for introducing discriminatory measures is to improve the situation of Polish diaspora in Germany. This is the first time after 1989 when the Polish state authorities introduce a law limiting the rights of Poland’s citizens belonging to a national minority (in this situation children), as a retaliation for the alleged situation of a kin-community elsewhere. Importantly, the adopted regulations are not only discriminatory towards one of the minorities; their implementation may in fact contribute to the dysfunctionality of the entire minority education system in Poland. This is also an obvious violation of the constitutional principle of equality before the law, the right of minorities to ‘maintain and develop their own language’, international standards of minority rights protection, as well as a threat to the very functioning of human rights protection mechanisms in the country.
