Details
Aufbauseminar
Präsenz
2 cred.h, ECTS studies, Sprache Englisch

Prerequisites / Organisational information
The Aufbauseminar English Linguistics II belongs to the following modules in the indicated degree programs:
  • BA English and American Studies: Basismodul III Linguistics B. (No requirements but previous attendance of GS strongly recommended.)

  • Lehramt Englisch an Gymnasien: Basismodul III Linguistics B. (No requirements but previous attendance of GS strongly recommended.)

  • Lehramt Englisch an Grund-, Mittel- und Realschulen: Elementarmodul L-UF Linguistics II. (No requirements but previous attendance of GS strongly recommended.)

Contents
The goal of the Aufbauseminar English Linguistics II is
  • to continue the linguistic description started in the Grundseminar on different levels of structure (phonology, morphology, syntax, etc.), for example by considering the contrastive (English-German) and historical perspective,

  • to discuss the limitations of the models introduced in the Grundseminar (syntax according to CGEL, structural description of meaning through componential analysis, etc.) and to introduce alternative models (valency theory in syntax, description of meaning through prototypes, etc.), as well as

  • to introduce areas of linguistics which have not found a place in the Grundseminar (e.g. lexicography or variational linguistics)

NB In the degree programs BA and L-Gym, the Aufbauseminar and the Basisvorlesung are examined in a joint written end-of-semester test. Therefore, these courses must be attended in the same semester.
