    Abstract ; Diese Dissertation soll einen Beitrag zur Diskussion um die Fragestellung leisten, inwiefern das Marionettenmotiv Goethes Roman "Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre", Kleists Aufsatz "Über das Marionettentheater" und seine Dramen verbindet. Die Verbindung zwischen Goethes Roman und Kleists Aufsatz besteht im Motiv der Marionette. Ausgehend von dem ästhetischen Ansatz, dem Konzept der Grazie bei Schiller, Goethe und Kleist, erfolgt eine Auseinandersetzung mit den kunsttheoretischen Aufsätzen von Goethe, Schiller und Winckelmann. Des Weiteren wird in dieser Dissertation untersucht, ob Goethes Roman "Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre" grundlegend für das theoretische Modell aus Kleists Aufsatz "Über das Marionettentheater" und für seine Dramen ist. Das Motiv der Marionette ist sowohl in "Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre" als auch in Kleists Aufsatz "Über das Marionettentheater" vorhanden. Es wird analysiert, inwiefern dieses Motiv die beiden Werke verbindet und ob in literaturwissenschaftlicher Hinsicht eine Entwicklung von Goethes Roman zu Kleists Aufsatz "Über das Marionettentheater" und zu seinen Dramen stattfindet. Die Auseinandersetzung Goethes mit Shakespeare innerhalb des Romans spiegelt die Figur "Wilhelm" wider. An dieser Stelle der Dissertation erfolgt eine Gegenüberstellung der Figuren "Hamlet" und "Wilhelm"/"Hamlet" und "Prinz Friedrich von Homburg", um herauszuarbeiten, dass diese Figuren sowohl in einer realen Welt als auch in einer Traumwelt leben. Thema und Fragestellung sind ein neuer Beitrag in der Diskussion um die dichterischen Werke von Goethe und Kleist, da in dieser Arbeit nachgewiesen werden konnte, dass Kleist das Motiv der Marionette aus dem Roman "Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre" in seinem Aufsatz und seinen Dramen verarbeitet hat, um zu einem neuen, mechanischen Modell zu gelangen. Es entstand somit auch eine Weiterentwicklung in der Literatur, von der Beschreibung des inneren Empfindens zum äußeren Ausdruck und zum Verhalten der Figuren. Ein Vergleich der beiden Werke, Goethes Roman und Kleists Aufsatz, wurde in der Forschungsliteratur noch nie in Erwägung gezogen. ; Abstract ; This doctoral thesis make a contribution to the discussion about the question, to what extent the motiv oft the marionette in Goethe's novel "Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre", is combined with Kleist's essay "Über das Marionettentheater" and his dramas. The connection between Goethe's novel and Kleist's essay exists in the motive of the marionette. To emanate from the aesthetic projection, the concept of the grace in Schiller, Goethe and Kleist, is under discussion with the art-theoretical essays of Goethe, Schiller and Winckelmann. Furthermore will be investigated, whether Goethe's novel "Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre" is based on the theoretical model of Kleist's essay "Über das Marionettentheater" and his dramas. The motive of the marionette exists during "Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre" as well as in Kleist's essay "Über das Marionettentheater". It is analyzed, to what extent this motive connects both works and whether in literature-scientific regard a development of Goethe's novel to Kleist's essay "Über das Marionettentheater" and his dramas takes place. The discussion between Goethe and Shakespeare within the novel reflects to the character "Wilhelm". At this point of the doctoral thesis a confrontation of the characters "Hamlet" and "Wilhelm" / "Hamlet" and "Prinz Friedrich von Homburg" is provided, in order to prove that these figures live in a real world as well as in a fictional world. Subject and question are a new contribution in the discussion about the poetic works of Goethe and Kleist. It was proven that in this work Kleist has processed the motive of the marionette from the novel "Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre" in his article and his dramas to reach a new mechanical model. A comparison of both works, Goethe's novel and Kleist's essay, was never taken into consideration in the research literature.

    Other ; After the opening of the country in the middle of the 19th century, Japan quickly moved towards becoming an industrialized world power. But the romanticist syndrome, imported from Europe by Mori Ogai since the 1890s, especially enchanted young intellectuals and drove their search of a Japanese cultural identity. The goal was, internally, to integrate the entire population, and externally, to make the country distinguishable from the »West« ─ paradoxically, in a spirit of European Romanticism. Takemitsu Morikawa investigates these remarkable developments and retraces the rise and canonization of the alleged self-image of modern Japan. ; Other ; Seit der Öffnung des Landes in der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts bewegte sich Japan rasant auf dem Weg zur industrialisierten Weltmacht. Das dort seit den 1890er Jahren durch Mori Ogai aus Europa ›eingeführte‹ romantische Syndrom jedoch verzauberte insbesondere die jungen Intellektuellen und trieb sie zur Suche nach der japanischen kulturellen Identität an. Ziel war es, nach innen die gesamte Bevölkerung zu integrieren und nach außen das Land vom »Westen« unterscheidbar zu machen – und zwar paradoxerweise im Geist der europäischen Romantik. Takemitsu Morikawa geht diesen bemerkenswerten Entwicklungen auf den Grund und zeichnet die Entstehung und die Kanonisierung des vermeintlichen Selbstbildes des modernen Japan nach.

    Other ; The various meanings of discourse connectives like while and however are difficult to identify and annotate, even for trained human annotators. This problem is all the more important that connectives are salient textual markers of cohesion and need to be correctly interpreted for many NLP applications. In this paper, we suggest an alternative route to reach a reliable annotation of connectives, by making use of the information provided by their translation in large parallel corpora. This method thus replaces the difficult explicit reasoning involved in traditional sense annotation by an empirical clustering of the senses emerging from the translations. We argue that this method has the advantage of providing more reliable reference data than traditional sense annotation. In addition, its simplicity allows for the rapid constitution of large annotated datasets.

    Other ; The situation once described by Hoffmann (1985), in which children grow up exposed to three languages from an early age, is a reality for an increasing number of families. In Europe – as elsewhere – greater mobility is leading to greater numbers of mixed-language couples (Piller 2002), and, by extension, multilingual families. For such families, questions concerning the acquisition and maintenance of three or more languages in a natural environment are of direct relevance. Researchers in bilingualism have already pointed out the importance of social context for the acquisition of two languages in childhood, focusing in particular on the quantity and quality of exposure to the languages (De Houwer 1990; Döpke 1992; Okita 2002; Lanza 2004) or the prestige of the languages (Lambert 1977). In this paper, I will make use of the insights gained by such researchers and test them in a trilingual setting. The paper will focus mainly on one aspect, namely the conversational style of parents and caretakers. The data come from research being carried out in Switzerland and consist of 33 interviews with multilingual families, as well as case studies of two trilingual children. The findings attest to the importance of conversational style, but at the same time indicate that a number of further factors are also of great significance.

    Other ; Processes of hostile Othering on the basis of religious alterity and escalations of communal violence are represented in many contemporary novels by Indian and Pakistani writers. This thesis analyses the ways in which four selected Anglophone contemporary novels by Indian and Pakistani writers refer to, represent and discuss historical and contemporary events that have repeatedly been categorized as examples of ‘religious violence,’ i.e. violent conflicts where the religious identities of both perpetrators and victims were the major reason or pretense for their involvement in those conflicts. The four novels analyzed in this thesis and the events they refer to are Bapsi Sidhwa’s Cracking India (1991) about Partition 1947, Shashi Tharoor’s Riot (2001) about the riots accompanying the Ram Janmabhumi campaign in the early 1990s, Raj Kamal Jha’s Fireproof (2006) about the anti-Muslim pogrom in Gujarat 2002, and Salman Rushdie’s Shalimar the Clown (2005) about the Kashmir conflict. Embedded as they are in the ‘real,’ empirical world, these novels engage with and respond to what they are surrounded by — a world abounding with violence and violent conflicts which seem to be directly related to religion in one way or another. Drawing on the debates about the question of religion’s relation to violence in different fields and conscientiously factoring in the specific historical contexts that the novels refer to and were written in, this study aims at identifying the ways in which the four selected examples of literary fiction represent, respond to and discuss historical instances of religious violence and how they negotiate the relation between religion and the violence they describe. This thesis’ overarching question is how these novels, representing those violent events on a fictional level, position themselves regarding the relation between religion, religious alterity, hostile Othering and violence. The approach to answering my principal question importantly involves looking at the ways in which these fictional texts refer to and include contemporary public discourses on the topic of religion’s relation to violence in India. In this respect, I am especially interested in literary representations and negotiations of the complex dynamics of marginalization, repression or silencing of memories of traumatizing events in dominant discourses in the public domain. My central hypothesis is that by way of narrating specific instances of religiously connoted violence, the novels scrutinize and highlight processes of hostile Othering on the basis of religious alterity and thereby bring to the fore its consequences both for the individuals directly involved and society as a whole. I contend that these novels deplore the status of religious alterity as singular category of perceiving the socio-cultural ‘Other’ and, by virtue of providing a multifaceted, complex image of India’s and Pakistan’s inhabitants, argue for a conceptual pluralization of identities and illustrate the advantages of perceiving others not as same but instead as diversely different.

    Abstract ; Das zutiefst feminisierte Konstrukt ‚Heimat‘ ist – sowohl als historischer Gegenstand als auch als literarisches Motiv – kontinuierlich bestimmten kulturellen, politischen und ideologischen Transformationsakten, Dynamisierungen und Recycling-Prozessen unterworfen, die insbesondere in der Literatur sichtbar werden. Derart sedimentiert tritt ‚Heimat‘ in Erzähltexten der Gegenwartsliteratur in Erscheinung, wird dort als historischer Gegenstand kritisch reflektiert, als Motiv zerrbildartig tradiert, hierin zugleich transformiert und dabei in auffallender Häufigkeit zu einer Kategorie der Zurichtung umgestaltet, die vor allem in der Synthese von ‚Körper‘ und ‚Geschlecht‘ ihren Ausdruck findet: Imaginationen vom ‚schwachen Geschlecht‘ werden in Bildern körperlicher Gewalt und Auslieferung erprobt und sind besonders häufig als Griffe ins Frauenhaar bzw. als Eingriffe in die weibliche ‚Haarbiografie‘ markiert. ‚Heimat‘ arriviert hierin zu einer Folie, auf der Figurationen (und Zirkulationen) von Macht in geschlechtlich codierten Körperbildern gespiegelt und verhandelt werden.

    Abstract ; Die Arbeit befasst sich mit der Rezeption des Mythos Petrarca in der italienischen, französischen und deutschen Literatur des 14. bis 21. Jahrhunderts. Berücksichtigt werden neben literarischen Texten aller Gattungen auch Reisebeschreibungen. Zudem wird anhand ausgewählter Bildgedichte auch die Frage nach der intermedialen Rezeption gestellt. Da der Mythos Petrarca auf der Selbstmythisierung dieses Dichters basiert, ergeben sich im Unterschied zu anderen Mythen auch intertextuelle Bezüge sowohl zum Werk Petrarcas auch zu den jeweils früheren mythenbearbeitenden Texten.

    Other ; Despite the experience gained over several decades in various types of light-based medical treatments, the optimization of the corresponding therapeutic protocols and accurate forecasting of their outcome have not yet been achieved in many cases. The difficulty often arises from the heterogeneity of living tissues, their variable optical properties, and from the heterogeneous distribution of the photoactive or photosensitive substances – whether naturally present in the tissue or artificially adde. Our work focuses on the individualization and control of irradiation parameters, in order for the physician to be able to elicit a predictable clinical response in the irradiated tissues. In this thesis, we present three separate studies in which we tried to evaluate the possibility of individualizing and optimizing the corresponding clinical outcomes by measuring or monitoring certain, particular parameters. In a first clinical study, performed at the medical practice of Dr Vezzola, MD, in Saló, Italy, the human eye's retinal reflectance was measured and mapped, in the framework of subthreshold thermal laser therapy, using an excitation wavelength identical to that of the treatment laser, i.e. at 810 nm. The specific goal of this study was to correlate the occurrence of retinal burns with the measured infrared retinal reflectance. This study was performed using a modified fundus camera to record infrared reflectance images of the retina, and by recording the slit-lamp based laser therapy parameters (irradiation parameters and spot location) in such a way so as to overlay the map of the laser treatment spots on the corresponding reflectance fundus image. The clinical study demonstrated the expected existence of spatial variations in light reflectance at 810 nm (probably due to changes of the tissue absorption), which we then tried to relate to the occurrences of retinal burns observed during the laser treatment. The analysis of the results obtained with the applied conditions, did not however show a clear correlation between the local retina reflectance, the laser beam parameters, and the occurrence of retinal burns. Therefore we postulate that either the absorbing structures of the retina cannot be seen with the imaging device we used, possibly due to its limited resolution, or other important elements play a role in the laser-tissue interactions during this type of lasers-light interaction with the local retinal tissue. The second study was pre-clinical, performed at EPFL, and aimed at monitoring in real-time the tissular oxygen concentration during photodynamic therapy (PDT). It was performed in vivo on the chicken embryo's chorio-allantoic membrane (CAM) model, which was submitted to aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-based PDT. The molecular oxygen, which is thought to be an essential actor in the cascade of reactions leading to the tissular PDT effect, is actually the main molecule responsible for the photosensitizer's (PS) triplet state quenching. Therefore, the delayed fluorescence lifetime of the photosensitizer, protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), was measured with a specially designed and assembled, optical fiber-based, time-resolved spectrofluorometer, and used as a proxy for tissular pO2. Simultaneously, vascular damages caused by PDT were characterized and quantified, to check for correlation between the two parameters. Using the PS's delayed fluorescence lifetime to evaluate tissular pO2 proved to be a quite reasonable strategy, due to the fact that it is possible to measure the pO2 at the location of the PS molecule. The study's results demonstrate a robust, linear correlation between tissular pO2 reduction and vascular damage extent. They also suggest that the amount of oxygen consumed during PDT could be a useful, measurable parameter for assessing and/or controlling the PDT's therapeutic effect. The third, clinical, study aimed at measuring the fluorescence photobleaching of the PpIX photosensitizer due to PDT. This study was performed at the "Hôpitaux Universitaires de Genève – HUG", in Geneva, Switzerland, in collaboration with Dr Denis Salomon, MD, and Dr Behrooz Kasraee, MD, in the framework of a series of standard clinical PDT treatments of aktinic keratoses (AK), which is a pre-cancerous skin lesion. The lesions' fluorescence intensity was quantified with a specially adapted quantitative imaging device, using a homogeneous and constant intensity fluorescence excitation light. The specific goal was to check for a relation between the extent of photobleaching of the PS (in this case PpIX, which was induced by the administration of Metvix®) and the clinical outcome (disappearance of AK) evaluated several months after the treatment. The study's results show that the amount of photobleached PS is strongly and linearly correlated to the fluorescence measured before the treatment. Likewise, the preliminary assessment of the clinical outcomes confirms the existence of a correlation of these outcomes with the PS's fluorescence bleaching, thus making it possible, in principle, to select and optimize the PDT's irradiation parameters before starting the treatment. The results of this study demonstrate the relevance of measuring the PS's photo-bleaching for optimizing PDT and forecasting of its outcome.
