Small changes to an image, mostly invisible to the human eye, can fool a neural network into classifying a turtle as a gun, or a stop sign as a green light. Of course, a single sentence has significantly fewer features to perturb than a 512x512 colour image, still machines can be fooled by slight rephrasing and exploiting real world biases that have crept into the system.\r\nThis talk gives a brief introduction into the technology and dangers of adversarial attacks and delves into the possible implications for testing and employing natural language processing systems.

An important task in Computational Linguistics is therefore the automatic detection of semantic relations. A rather challenging kind of relation is the one of causality, since it is usually highly dependent on the context and rarely true in general. Thus, even humans struggle with the annotation of causal relations. However, state-of-the-art systems often use machine learning techniques for this task which requires a huge amount of annotated data.\r\nBecause of this problem, I built a system in the course of my Bachelor thesis which automatically detects and extracts causal entities in unannotated German corpora. I focus on specific causal structures having nominal triggers (e.g. The defect toaster was the CAUSE for the fire). The system is provided with few manually selected examples and uses a bootstrapping algorithm to find new examples, triggers and causal patterns. To avoid semantic drift, several filtering methods based on word embeddings and the resource GermaNet are tested and evaluated. In my talk, I am going to present this system and its results.","speakers":[{"guid":"18e13087-a5e8-5652-9add-919daa0398cc","id":205,"image":null,"name":"Sarina Meyer","public_name":"Sarina Meyer","abstract":null,"description":null,"links":[]}],"start_time":"2019-11-30T13:10:00.000+01:00","end_time":"2019-11-30T13:40:00.000+01:00","room":{"name":"Schellingstr. 3 R153","id":40}},{"id":221,"guid":"4206507d-518a-4f0f-8478-925b104c9528","title":"Aymara Tense/Person Agreement","language":"","subtitle":null,"description":null,"duration":1800,"time_slots":3,"logo":"/system/events/logos/000/000/221/original/032.jpg?1572302770","type":"lecture","do_not_record":false,"track":"Typology and Variational Linguistics","abstract":"Aymara is an isolate suffix-only SOV language spoken in parts of Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Argentinia. Its person/tense agreement paradigm comprises four person categories (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 1st inclusive) and four tenses (future, simple, recent past, remote past). Although Coler (2015) claims the portmanteau morphemes encoding these categories cannot be systematically separated into tense and person markers, the patterns one can see in the paradigm suggest there is a way of breaking them down into tense, subject and, in some cases, object markers. However, this raises a couple of issues for theoretical morphology: \r\n1) The linearisation of tense and person markers depends on the subject\u003eobject constellation: In the 3\u003e3, 1incl\u003e3, 2\u003e1, 3\u003e1 and 3\u003e1incl forms, person precedes tense while in all other contexts, tense precedes person. In Distributed Morphology, according to the Mirror Principle (Baker 1985), this differential linearisation must already be there in the syntactic derivation, i.e. in the adjunction of v to T. For predefined templates in Paradigm Function Morphology, this is a serious challenge. \r\n2) In the 2\u003e1 future as well as in the 2\u003e1, 3\u003e1 and 3\u003e1incl remote past forms tense is not expressed by a CV suffix but by partial reduplication. Assuming Marantz' (1982) theory of reduplication, this can be seen as suffixation of melody carrying CV skeletons and copying melodic elements of the preceding subject agreement suffix. \r\nIn the same way, the property of some suffixes of deleting the preceding vowel can be analysed as a melody carrying C skeleton at the left edge of the suffix and a high ranked DEP constraint in phonology. \r\n3) Some of the markers appear in contexts that do not form any natural classes. This can be easily handled in Paradigm Function Morphology by postulating arbitrary rules of referral. In Distributed Morphology, as it seems, we have a choice between expanding the feature decomposition by adding features, postulating impoverishment rules and assuming arbitrary homonymy.

The importance of the\r\nproject was highlighted when we won the EU-Open Humanities Award in 2014 for\r\nour FinderApp WiTTFind and in 2017 Wittgenstein’s Nachlass was incorporated\r\ninto the list of world cultural heritage by the UNESCO’s “Memory of the world”\r\nprogram.\r\nIn the keynote I want to present the research work around the FinderApp\r\nWiTTFind, the WiTTReader, the latest developments within WAST and the\r\nchallenges for computational linguists developing a FinderApp for documents with\r\nthis level of cultural importance.","speakers":[],"start_time":"2019-11-29T10:00:00.000+01:00","end_time":"2019-11-29T11:00:00.000+01:00","room":{"name":"Hauptgebäude M118","id":37}},{"id":196,"guid":"2db46658-eb9d-4ea4-8a1e-e7ad958c5697","title":"Creating Borders","language":"en","subtitle":"On the Instrumentalization of Linguistic Research","description":null,"duration":1800,"time_slots":3,"logo":null,"type":"lecture","do_not_record":false,"track":"Sociolinguistics","abstract":"Some linguists may study centuries-old documents to learn about the relationship of Latin and Italian, others may collect data on Language Attitudes in border regions.

Der dativmarkierte externe Possessor verhält sich wie ein indirektes Objekt. Da der Erwerb des Dativs beim indirekten Objekt bis ins Schulalter hinein andauern kann (Ulrich, Penke, Berg, et al. 2016), könnte ein nicht abgeschlossener Dativerwerb ein erklärender Faktor für den späten Erwerb externer Possessivkonstruktionen sein. Zusätzlich scheint die Integration von Agens-Patiens- und Possessivrelation in eine Argumenthierarchie Kindern Probleme zu bereiten.\r\nUm diese Annahmen zu testen, wurde eine Analyse elizitierter Produktionsdaten (n=20; 2;9-6;6) durchgeführt. Die Ergebnisse legen nahe, dass Kinder auch im späten Vorschulalter weder den Dativ in externen Possessivkonstruktionen noch in ditransitiven Konstruktionen erworben haben. Außerdem wurde ein starker, allerdings nicht signifikanter Zusammenhang (rs =0.75, p=0.052) zwischen den Korrektheitsraten für indirekte Objekte und externe Possessor-Argumente gefunden. Als weitere mögliche Faktoren wurden die Verbfrequenz sowie -m/-n-Verwechslungen identifiziert. Ob zwischen dem Erwerb des Dativs bei indirekten Objekten und externen Possessor-Argumenten ein signifikanter Zusammenhang nachgewiesen werden kann, muss anhand eines größeren Samples überprüft werden.","speakers":[{"guid":"d70c3841-e144-5287-be58-d4fe032984ff","id":83,"image":"/system/people/avatars/000/000/083/original/tsvantsich.jpg?1558650652","name":"Leonie Regina Twente","public_name":"Leonie Regina Twente","abstract":"I received my B.

Während einige Autoren diesen Begriff auf die syntaktische oder semantische Ebene beschränken wollen, verstehen andere Transitivität als ein umfassendes Konzept, das auf allen Ebenen einer Äußerung, insbesondere in deren Semantik, Pragmatik und Morphosyntax wirksam wird. Der agent focus, eine in vielen Maya-Sprachen produktive Konstruktion zur Fokalisierung des actor-Elementes, stellt jedoch alle genannten Auffassungen zu Transitivität (und ebenso auf diesem Begriff aufbauende Konzepte wie die syntaktischen Funktionen S, A und O) vor Herausforderungen. So weist die agent-focus-Konstruktion etwa in der Maya-Sprache Ixil in morphologischer und syntaktischer Hinsicht sowohl Ähnlichkeiten zu transitiven Konstruktionen als auch zu den intransitiven diathetischen Konstruktionen Passiv und Antipassiv auf. Diese Ähnlichkeiten äußern sich im Gebrauch bestimmter Verbalsuffixe sowie in der konstruktionsspezifischen Aktantenkodierung.\r\n\r\nIn der vorliegenden Untersuchung wird zunächst gezeigt, wie sich dieses morphosyntaktische Muster in bisher bestehende Transitivitätsmodelle einfügt. Davon ausgehend und anhand des Vergleichs von Daten aus verschiedenen Maya-Sprachen wird eine Hypothese dazu entwickelt, wie sich der agent focus im Ixil diachron entwickelt haben könnte. Teil dieser Hypothese ist ein Transitivitätsmodell, das Transitivität erstens als skalare Eigenschaft einer Äußerung begreift, die zweitens alle Ebenen dieser Äußerung betrifft, und bei der drittens all diese Ebenen in Wechselwirkung zueinander stehen. Anhand des agent focus wird auf diese Weise gezeigt, wie eine Konstruktion, die mit hohen Transitivitätswerten auf der pragmatischen Ebene verknüpft ist, in diachroner Perspektive dazu neigen kann, auch auf morphosyntaktischer Ebene Merkmale hoher Transitivität anzunehmen.","speakers":[{"guid":"c71ad1f0-a042-5da4-8236-2804006fc8ea","id":75,"image":null,"name":"Constantin Zenthöfer","public_name":"Constantin Zenthöfer","email":"c.zenthoefer@web.de","abstract":null,"description":null,"links":[]}],"start_time":"2019-11-29T17:00:00.000+01:00","end_time":"2019-11-29T17:30:00.000+01:00","room":{"name":"Schellingstr. 3 R205","id":41}},{"id":193,"guid":"f16435c9-79e2-4c8c-afed-436cbabca02c","title":"Grammatical Factors in Morphological Processing","language":"en","subtitle":"Evidence from Allomorphy","description":"Trials from the British Lexicon Project lexical decision dataset (Keuleers et al. 2012) were annotated for allomorphy type along the cline suppletion\u003erule\u003enone, with every paradigm member assigned only its paradigm’s highest complexity value for Experiment 1 (see Table 1 under the supplementary tables link). Mixed-effects regression models were fit to the by-trial dataset with standard predictors. Z-transformed RTs and accuracy ratings were separately modeled as the dependent variables. Frequency, paradigm allomorphy and their interaction were all found to be significant predictors (all p\u003c0.001). Members of non-allomorphic paradigms elicited shorter RTs than allomorphic paradigms; within the allomorphic paradigms, members of suppletive groups elicited longer RTs, yielding the pattern none\u003erule\u003esuppletion. However, interactions with frequency reversed the pattern, yielding suppletion\u003erule\u003enone (Table 2). While the same general pattern was observed for accuracy, the models failed to converge.\r\nThe paradigms were then split into two additional predictors, one for stems (HasAllos) and the other for the (possible) allomorphs themselves (IsAllo). These were introduced into the models for Experiment 2 instead of the paradigm predictor. HasAllos yielded none\u003erule\u003esuppletion, while IsAllo exhibited rule\u003enone\u003esuppletion (all p\u003c0.001). Again, the frequency interactions reversed the pattern for both allomorphy predictors (Table 3). The accuracy models exhibited the same general pattern, but again failed to converge.\r\nThese findings indicate that not all information relevant to processing is distributional (cf. Baayen et al. 2011 and Marantz 2013), and sensitivity to allomorphy has to be addressed in models of lexical processing.

Linguists have since been collecting data to substantiate their theories concerning the origin/development of BE. The majority of linguists have come to a degree of consensus that some features of BE can be systematically distinguished from American English and that BE is not a ‘bad’ or inferior English variety. Many of them have remarked that BE is more regional than racial and that most of its grammatical features can also be found in other English dialects. However, a problem lies in the label ‘Black English’ While AAVE is a product of Black culture, speaking AAVE is not what makes you black and being black does not make you a speaker of black English. If there is Black English, it then connotes the existence of White English. But it is difficult to point to a study with a major focus on ‘White English’. It is then important to examine the perception of Americans of AAVE.\r\nThis study investigates the attitudes of black and white Americans towards Black English. An interview-questionnaire approach is used to elicit the perception of the informants, exploring their experiential, attitudinal, and descriptive responses to AAVE. A few trends were found among the American respondents along two major concerns: problems with the label and social construction.","speakers":[{"guid":"2ef635c3-89c7-5380-b1cd-dfa997b76035","id":72,"image":"/system/people/avatars/000/000/072/original/photo.jpg?1635618396","name":"Helena Mironova","public_name":"Helena Mironova","email":"emitolmeo@gmail.com","abstract":"Higher School of Economics, MA, Language policy","description":null,"links":[]},{"guid":"e49b700e-3950-55ac-b5b4-01a349242b85","id":24,"image":"/system/people/avatars/000/000/024/original/IMG_20180109_135056.jpg?1556140836","name":"Folajimi Oyebola","public_name":"Folajimi Oyebola","email":"oyebola@uni-muenster.de","abstract":"Folajimi Oyebola currently holds a doctoral position at the University of Münster, Germany.

This perspective dichotomy combines with another one regarding the way in which we assess morphological complexity, whether it is the mere number of forms (ENUMERATIVE COMPLEXITY) or the systemic organization underlying the surface patterns (INTEGRATIVE COMPLEXITY) that accounts for the learnability of a morphological system.\r\n\r\nFar from being out of touch with reality, these theoretical insights may serve a practical purpose in the didactics of morphologically complex languages, such as Sanskrit, whose reputation of abstruseness and esotericism is essentially unfounded, and arises (in part) from didactic materials sticking to traditional Indian grammar and seeking to give an daunting, exhaustive account of surface accidence, while failing to stress, from the very beginning, the intrinsic unity that underlies the apparent wealth of inflectional paradigms. The definition of as many distinct noun or verb classes as there are similar looking paradigms greatly overstates the overall complexity of the language and is pedagogically counterproductive. It is, in fact, possible to derive the thirty-or-so nominal surface paradigms and the ten conjugation classes from a much smaller number of meta-classes by way of phonological rules and a thorough understanding of how stem alternation patterns relate to one another.\r\n\r\nWith these principles in mind, it is reasonable to state that, against popular belief or first-sight impressions, Classical (i.e. Pāṇinian) Sanskrit is more regular than other heavily inflected languages such as Latin or Greek, in spite of its greater wealth of morphosyntactic variables and its pervasive use of internal inflection.","speakers":[{"guid":"cb7d9cbd-1cb1-5385-8369-cff619e6bb0c","id":79,"image":"/system/people/avatars/000/000/079/original/katsushika-hokusai-poster-reproduction-la-gra.jpg?1555800673","name":"Jean-Baptiste Lamontre","public_name":"Jean-Baptiste Lamontre","email":"jbaptiste.lamontre@laposte.net","abstract":"Currently writing a PhD in the history of linguistics (about 19th century orientalism in the Himalayas) at Université Paris-Cité, Paris.\r\nMain fields of interest: historical and comparative linguistics, history of linguistic theories, morphology, Classics.\r\nParticipation to former Stuts: 65 (Cologne) and 66 (Munich).","description":null,"links":[]}],"start_time":"2019-11-29T17:00:00.000+01:00","end_time":"2019-11-29T17:30:00.000+01:00","room":{"name":"Schellingstr. 3 R203","id":42}},{"id":177,"guid":"d1579b24-6b1b-44ad-8013-f192736a2fd8","title":"Member meeting - Vereinssitzung","language":"","subtitle":"Junge Sprachwissenschaft e.V.","description":"- The language of the session will be decided upon at the meeting, depending on who is there - \r\n\r\nWe are excited to invite all those interested to join the bi-annual member meeting of the Association for Young Linguistics (Junge Sprachwissenschaft e.V.).

An individual will carry their parent’s first name in combination with a suffix denoting gender – -son for men, -dóttir for women – instead of a family name. To this day this system has been kept in place in Iceland even as naming traditions in other European countries moved on to patrilineally inherited family names. However, when Icelanders joined the European migration westward, the differing cultural and linguistic environment they found themselves in had a significant impact on their names and naming practices. \r\nFrom an onomastic point of view, the question whether the patronymic transition continued post-arrival in America or a continental European approach was adopted in the Icelandic emigrant communities merits further exploration. To answer it, I will investigate the presence of female patronymics in particular, using  Canadian census data from the late 19th and early 20th century. The subsection of the census that forms the basis of my talk originates in Gimli, an almost exclusively Icelandic settlement in the province of Manitoba. I will briefly comment on the usefulness of census data for onomastic research before outlining the development of female patronymics in Gimli. While there are very few examples of -dóttir-patronymics in the 1881 and 1891 censuses, the Gimli section of the 1901 census appears to contain a surprisingly high number of them, painting a rather complex picture of systemic change.

Monolingual 24-month-olds were presented with familiar legal words and novel pseudo-words. Following Shtyrov et. al (2011), we designed minimally paired known words and pseudo-words with a CV_CV structure, in which the first syllables were matched and the disambiguation point was established at the onset of the second syllable. Acoustic properties, language-specific and age-specific frequencies of the phonemes, known lexical items, and all CV concatenations, were controlled for. The ERPs were averaged in response to word types and three stages of exposure (early, middle and late stages of total exposure (15-20 minutes)).\r\nOur results seem to indicate that the ERPs are modulated differentially in response to known and novel words: the responses to novel words are enhanced while the responses to known words remain stable during the course of the experiment, similarly to earlier findings in adults (Shtyrov et al., 2010) and school-aged children (Partanen et al., 2017). These data suggest that the ERP modulation might be related to lexical learning in the developing brain.\r\nThis may serve as an opportunity to more openly discuss some concepts of neurolinguistic research, in particular those pertaining to EEG and the study of neuronal oscillations involved in language acquisition. I will try to integrate some elements from linguistic theory that are not from acquisition studies proper, but do make assumptions about how linguistic elements must be stored and retrieved in cognition.

One demographic group of interest for studying this question is that of infants, due to their higher levels of synaptic plasticity. How is it that the brain deals with memorization of native and non-native expressions, that is, phonologically legal or illicit forms?

I’ll describe our specific goals and methodology in this small project, not only as a way to get feedback for further improvement (given that the testing phase is still ongoing) but also as a way to open a broader discussion on how it is that linguists contribute to and integrate neuroscientific data for their own theoretical formulation, model-testing and the plausibility of the postulated natural kinds of language.","speakers":[{"guid":"b22e09d8-3a1f-5ceb-b68b-faf534fa7659","id":86,"image":"/system/people/avatars/000/000/086/original/Captura_de_pantalla_2020-04-26_a_la(s)_16.34.49.png?1588409065","name":"María Eugenia Arthuis Blanco","public_name":"María Eugenia Arthuis Blanco","abstract":null,"description":null,"links":[]}],"start_time":"2019-11-30T11:10:00.000+01:00","end_time":"2019-11-30T11:40:00.000+01:00","room":{"name":"Schellingstr. 3 R205","id":41}},{"id":244,"guid":"047ec26f-7477-4b19-8a01-3ce4798b5386","title":"Pink Pub Tour with Nicolas ","language":"","subtitle":"*Meetingpoint: Marienplatz in front of the Rathaus — 7 pm* Tour through Munich‘s gay night life, including Pink Christmas (LGBTI Christmas market)","description":null,"duration":12000,"time_slots":20,"logo":null,"type":"","do_not_record":false,"track":null,"abstract":null,"speakers":[],"start_time":"2019-11-29T19:00:00.000+01:00","end_time":"2019-11-29T22:20:00.000+01:00","room":{"name":"Pink Pub Tour","id":52}},{"id":216,"guid":"bfe973ac-82c4-4ed6-b637-bc6ee2991c2d","title":"Popular Science Writing","language":"","subtitle":null,"description":"The workshop will be mainly given in English, however, we are happy to clarify anything in German.

The genetic relationship between San Diu and other languages is still not clear. There have been claims that San Diu is a form of Chinese language (Pham \u0026 Nguyen 2014: 89). Edmondson and Gregerson (2007: 744) stated that it is a form of archaic Cantonese, possibly related to Pinghua which is spoken in modern day Guangxi, China. In Ngyuen’s (2013) study, she compared San Diu vocabularies with three Chinese dialects: Yue (Guangzhou), Hakka (Meixian) and Southern Min (Teochew) and found that around 2/3 of the San Diu vocabularies are similar to Hakka (lexically and for some, phonetically). \r\n\r\nTo explore the genetic classification of San Diu further, I will be using shared innovations as a criterion for the classification in this paper. This is another way to falsify previous claims and the observation made by the surface synchronic comparison between Chinese dialects and San Diu. Innovations that are prototypical and unique to three Chinese dialect groups were chosen and compared with San Diu. Over 400 syllables were analysed overall. The result shows that, firstly, a huge amount of words are not from a Sinitic origin. Secondly, San Diu shares innovations with Yue and Hakka. I argue that the Sinitic words in San Diu largely came from Yue, since more innovations are shared with Yue than Hakka. This does not dispute the possibility that Hakka words did not make their way to San Diu, however. Further studies are needed for a deeper understanding to the origin of this language.\r\n","speakers":[{"guid":"eb9eb1af-cc5f-5ebb-bf76-df308771c808","id":198,"image":null,"name":"Matthew Sung","public_name":"Matthew Sung","abstract":"I am a 2nd year PhD student at Leiden University.

Language researchers have been trying to test the hypotheses on the relativization hierarchy for different languages and different genres. The present study intends to investigate the predictions of two hypotheses of RC acquisition, namely the NPAH and the Perceptual Difficulty Hypothesis (PDH) in second language acquisition to see whether they can predict the acquisition hierarchy of RCs for Kurdish-speaking learners of English. Toward this aim, 45 Kurd native speakers participated in sentence translation and sentence combination tests. The results obtained from the two tests confirmed the predictions made by the NPAH. The results also revealed that the participants find RCs modifying objects of the matrix clauses much easier than those modifying subjects; this means, the study supports the claim of the PDH, which proposes that right-embedding RCs are easier to acquire than center-embedding ones due to short-term memory limitations.\r\n","speakers":[{"guid":"1b0f2cac-e75e-5931-8a68-701c34d2eee0","id":55,"image":null,"name":"Golpar Bahar","public_name":"Golpar Bahar","abstract":null,"description":null,"links":[]}],"start_time":"2019-11-30T14:30:00.000+01:00","end_time":"2019-11-30T15:00:00.000+01:00","room":{"name":"Schellingstr. 3 R205","id":41}},{"id":237,"guid":"65b81937-cfa2-4f75-8a55-bce18b60deb4","title":"Thesaurus linguae Latinae‘s backstage (TLL) with Nicolas","language":"en","subtitle":"*Meeting Point: Lichthof at LMU mainbuilding — 11.10 am* The Thesaurus linguae Latinae is the first comprehensive dictionary of ancient Latin.

This is a rather common problem on which linguists and other researchers have worked on since the early 2000s (cf. Herring et al. 2002).\r\nIn research, the definition of what trolling is has a long history and is entwined with the invention of the internet. While in the past, the definition was examined from the perspective of impoliteness and often seen as being connected to flaming (cf. Hopkinson 2012), in recent years it has become a rather fuzzy term. This is partly due to the inherent understanding of what constitutes a troll.\r\nStarting from the origin of the term ‘troll’ and its first appearance in internet culture, I will first give an overview over the development of the definition, how it is used today online and offline. Furthermore, the fuzziness of the term and what this does to the general and specific discourse will be of interest.

Hierbei wird sowohl auf die Entscheidungen im Hinblick auf die Textauswahl als auch auf die Nutzung der Datenbank Nexis Uni eingegangen. Auch bei der Annotation wird sich exemplarisch auf das Tool CATMA beschränkt, welches im Rahmen der vorgestellten Untersuchung dazu diente, die unterschiedlichen Textteile zu annotieren. Andere Annotationstools und auch bereits bestehende Korpora sollen jedoch im Ausblick kurz Erwähnung finden, um einen Überblick über die Möglichkeiten der digitalen Textanalyse zu erhalten.","duration":1800,"time_slots":3,"logo":null,"type":"lecture","do_not_record":false,"track":"Computational Linguistics","abstract":"Für empirische linguistische Untersuchungen sind Daten unerlässlich. Doch wo nimmt man diese her? Und was kann man dann mit ihnen machen? Eine Möglichkeit sind Online-Korpora; es besteht jedoch auch die Möglichkeit, ein eigenes Korpus zu erstellen und dieses entsprechend der untersuchten Fragestellung zu annotieren. Im Rahmen der Präsentation soll anhand einer Untersuchung zum strukturellen Aufbau von Zeitungstexten gezeigt werden, wie mithilfe der Online-Datenbank Nexis Uni ein eigenes Korpus erstellt und dieses dann mithilfe des Tools CATMA im Hinblick auf Textteile annotiert wurde. Auf diese Annotation aufbauend wurde dann untersucht, wie sich bestimmte Begriffe auf die Textteile der untersuchten Zeitungstexte verteilen. Vergleichend wurde zudem eine quantitative Untersuchung im Digitalen Wörterbuchs der deutschen Sprache (DWDS) durchgeführt. Auf dieses Vorgehen soll ebenfalls im Rahmen der Präsentation näher eingegangen werden. Darüber hinaus soll abschließend noch auf eine Auswahl bestehender Online-Korpora sowie Tools zur Textaufbereitung und -exploration hingewiesen werden.","speakers":[{"guid":"f71a39ac-508c-505d-b896-14258194f2eb","id":215,"image":null,"name":"Lea Röseler","public_name":"Lea Röseler","abstract":null,"description":null,"links":[]}],"start_time":"2019-11-30T12:30:00.000+01:00","end_time":"2019-11-30T13:00:00.000+01:00","room":{"name":"Schellingstr. 3 R153","id":40}},{"id":206,"guid":"36dab40c-0b26-4c5c-858b-6fa2c111c204","title":"Wie historische Gemälde für moderne Lebenswelten nutzbar gemacht werden. Eine multimodale Mehrebenenanalyse des Online-Phänomens „Klassik Memes“.","language":"de","subtitle":null,"description":"Memes nehmen in heutigen Lebenswelten eine wichtige Rolle ein, indem ihre Produktion, Rezeption und Adaption zu den zentralen kommunikativen Praktiken innerhalb des World Wide Web zählen (Bülow, Merten \u0026 Johann 2018: 1–2). Diese Alltagsrelevanz von Memes wird auch im (sprach)wissenschaftlichen Diskurs zunehmend anerkannt, wo sie zudem – durch die Form der Memes als Sprache-Bild-Texte – die Annahme eines multimodalen Textbegriffs stützt (Eckkrammer \u0026 Held 2006: 1–2, Stöckl 2004, Klug 2017: 73–74). Vor diesem theoretischen Hintergrund widmet sich der geplante Beitrag dem Online-Phänomen der sogenannten „Klassik Memes“, bei welchem historische Gemälde zu modernen Memes umgestaltet werden, und beschäftigt sich mit folgender Frage: Auf welche Art und Weise werden die historischen Kunstwerke für moderne Lebenswelten und Rezipient*innen nutzbar bzw. verstehbar gemacht? Diese Frage soll mithilfe einer multimodalen Text- und Diskursanalyse nach Klug (2017) und anhand eines eigens zusammengestellten Korpus an Klassik Memes beantwortet werden. Im Fokus der Analyse steht dabei vor allem die Mikroebene der untersuchten Texte, daher ihre semiotische Ausgestaltung, ebenfalls werden jedoch auch die von den Memes behandelten Themen sowie ihr kommunikativer Kontext in den Blick genommen. Die Ergebnisse werden im Vortrag vorgestellt.\r\n\r\n\u003cb\u003eReferenzen\u003c/b\u003e\r\n\r\nBülow, Lars / Merten, Marie-Luis / Johann, Michael (2018): Internet-Memes als Zugang zu multimodalen Konstruktionen.
