    The relations between Turkey and Germany have a long history that involves collaboration and partnership in many areas. After 1960s, this relationship gained a new dimension as hundreds of thousands of Turkish workers immigrated to Germany. This paper presents a brief history of the relations between the two countries, and the cultural and language-related problems experienced by Turkish people in Germany. More specifically, it focuses on the background and current state of the Turkish Language and Culture course taught to the Turkish youth in German schools. Problems regarding the implementation of this course are discussed with reference to official statistics. Finally, suggestions are offered to address the challenges faced to improve the Turkish Language and Culture course so that Turkish children can successfully learn their origin-language, and eventually achieve competence in both Turkish and German in their academic studies. Türkiye ve Almanya arasındaki ilişkilerin birçok alanda işbirliği ve ortaklık içeren uzun bir tarihi vardır. Bu ilişki, 1960'lı yıllardan sonra yüzbinlerce Türk işçinin Almanya'ya göç etmesiyle yeni bir boyut kazanmıştır. Bu çalışma iki ülke arasındaki ilişkilerin kısa bir tarihini sunarken Almanya'da yaşayan Türklerin deneyimlediği kültür ve dil sorunlarını da ele almaktadır. Çalışmanın ana odak noktası ise Alman okullarında okutulan Türkçe ve Türk Kültürü dersinin geçmişi ve mevcut durumunun incelenmesidir. Bu dersin yürütülmesinde karşılaşılan sorunlar resmi istatistiklere atıfta bulunularak tartışılmıştır. Son olarak, Almanya'da yaşayan Türk çocuklarının köken dillerini iyi bir düzeyde öğrenebilmeleri ve akademik hayatlarında daha başarılı olmaları adına hem Türkçe hem de Almancada yeterlilik kazanabilmeleri için Türkçe ve Türk Kültürü dersinin geliştirilmesinde karşı karşıya kalınan zorlukların aşılmasına yönelik olarak öneriler sunulmuştur.

    Research has contended youth is an "invention" of the 18th century. This thesis does not contest the fact that youth was already known and accepted as a stage in life even earlier. Certain basic anthropological patterns of youthfulness, for example nonchalance, instability, recklessness, exaggeration, bashfulness looking forward to the future and the ability to make friends have been rhetorically implied, repeated and cited as a matter of course since the time of Aristoteies. The pointed thesis that the concept of youth only arose in the 18th century accentuates that youth as an autonomous way of life is a characteristic of the Modern Age.

    In this article I explore the construction of singing child characters in Isaac Watts’ Divine and Moral Songs for Children (1715) and Christopher Smart’s Hymns for the Amusement of Children (1771). The first part focusses on the nature of the lyrical persona within the lexical fields »voice and vocal sound« and »religion« and also looks at the possible addressees. The second part examines stylistic, phonetic, and formal elements, and explores their role in constructing the ›singing I.‹ To show the potential of Watts’ »Against Quarrelling and Fighting« to function as an invitation to playfully adopt behaviour opposed to Christian norms, the article examines a performance of Let Dogs Delight to Bark and Bite, a chorale by Matthew J. Zimnoch, whose text is taken from Watts’ hymn. Combining approaches from research on children’s poetry with ones from the interface of children’s literature and hymnody, the article also integrates a digitally supported close reading. The hymn texts were inputted into f4analyse, a software used in text linguistics and the social sciences, which allows for the assignment of categories, such as positive self-connotation of the ›singing I‹ or rhyme patterns. In conclusion, the article evaluates the potential of such a digitally supported research methodology for future research at the intersection of children’s literature and digital humanities.
