The book considers the ways in which people construe events as bounded and unbounded in oral communication, using aspectual forms and co-speech gestures. The results reveal differences in event construal in multimodal terms by speakers of Russian and French, marking the ways in which boundedness is realized in spontaneous oral narratives.
Der Band vereint elf Studien der deutschen Slavistin und Bohemistin Herta Schmid zum tschechischen Strukturalismus. Sie entwickelte in den zwischen 1970 und 2014 entstandenen Beiträgen eine neue Perspektive auf zentrale Begriffe und Theoreme des tschechischen Strukturalismus und erforschte vielfältige kontextuelle Bezüge ¿ zum russischen Formalismus, zur deutschen Philosophie, zum Poststrukturalismus. Die erstmals in einer repräsentativen Gesamtschau zusammengestellten Aufsätze lassen theoretische Entwicklungslinien und -konzepte in der dezidiert literaturwissenschaftlich ausgerichteten Beschäftigung der Autorin mit dem tschechischen Strukturalismus hervortreten.
The book shows Chekhov as a writer with a synthetic ethical worldview on which his poetics are based. The book's key finding is that modern temporality lies at the centre of Chekhov's work. This conclusion is reached by comparing narrative representation of time in non-fictional Sakhalin Island, short fiction and drama.
