Workshop: Why is English spelling so weird? A diachronic perspective on the orthography of English

Veranstaltungsort: online

VeranstaltungsortonlineonlineVeranstalter Institut für Anglistik und AmerikanistikBeschreibungIt is a truth universally acknowledged that both first and second language speakers of English struggle immensely with its spelling. In this workshop, we will look at how English came to have the spelling system it has today and the ways in which orthography reflects widespread pronunciation in previous times as well as various accidents of history. We will touch upon some serious issues English spelling presents for its users and trace variation in spelling in informal genres from historical letters to modern texting practices.Vortragende(r)Monika Kavalier (University of Ljubljana)KontaktDaniela Werdnig (daniela.werdnig@aau.at) Anmeldepflichtig!

Development of contemporary protests icons through remediation

Veranstaltungsort: virtuell

VeranstaltungsortvirtuellVeranstalter IFK - Abteilung Visuelle KulturBeschreibungThis lecture provides insights into iconisation of social movement images and visual activism with a focus on diversity. Photographs and illustrations disseminated in digital media depict and call for collective action. Despite the abundance of images during the peak times of protests, only some of them gain popularity and grow into protest icons after a remediation process that allows for manipulated, stylised, and cartoonised versions. At the same time, these images participate in and negotiate politics of (in)visibility. This way, not only do they seek to recruit more people to the protest by emphasising the power of everybody figures, but they also bring forward the invisible and the neglected. The lecture presents part of the outcomes of a comparative visual study on Turkish social movements. Focusing on images of the 2013 Gezi Movement and the 2016 Anti-Coup Resistance, it opens up a discussion on displaying diversity icons in relation to political variety of visual activism.Vortragende(r)M.

Gender in a psychotherapeutic interaction

Veranstaltungsort: Online

VeranstaltungsortZoomOnlineVeranstalter Institut für Anglistik und AmerikanistikBeschreibungIn this talk we will discuss how gender ‒ as one of the most salient social categories ‒ can be examined in language and interaction and how it emerges and matters in an interaction between a practitioner (a psychotherapist) and a client.In the first part of the talk we will consider how gender can be studied in language and communication from an interactional perspective. Here we will focus on the ethnomethodological approach adopting the participant’s perspective and social constructionism following the analyst’s position. We will then apply these approaches to the professional context of psychotherapy to discuss how gender becomes relevant yet often an invisible category for the participants of the psychotherapeutic interaction.
