Contents
This seminar will focus on a comparison of English and German in various areas of linguistic description and will raise issues connected to the learning and teaching of English as a foreign language.

The aim is to widen the traditional scope of contrastive linguistics by taking into account recent insights gained from corpus linguistics and cognitive linguistics.
