Die Untersuchung von Zeitungen wurde in der sprachgeschichtlichen Forschung bisher nur am Rande berücksichtigt. Allerdings erreichten Zeitungen schon im 18. Jahrhundert ein größeres Publikum als jede ...andere Kommunikationsform. Die „Zeitungssprache" übte auf die Entwicklung des Deutschen einen nicht zu unterschätzenden Einfluss aus, auch dadurch, dass überregionale Ausgleichstendenzen durch sie unterstützt wurden. Jedoch wurden diese Prozesse ebenso wenig systematisch untersucht wie der Sprachgebrauch der sich entwickelnden oder sich neu herausbildenden Rubriken und Pressetextsorten. Die vor allem in bildungsbürgerlichen Kreisen herrschende Abneigung gegen den Stil der täglich unter Zeitdruck für den Moment seriell produzierten Texte führte zur Vernachlässigung der Zeitung als wichtiger sprachhistorischer Quelle und damit zu nicht immer zutreffenden Einschätzungen ihrer sprachlichen Gestaltung. Zudem standen Zeitungen nur auszugsweise in repräsentativen digitalisierten Auswahlkorpora zur Verfügung. Neuerdings exisiteren jedoch groß angelegte Projekte zur Zeitungsdigitalisierung, die als Grundlage für neue linguistische Untersuchungen dienen können. Die Beiträge dieses Tagungsbandes thematisieren die Erstellung digitaler historischer Zeitungskorpora, Merkmale und Entwicklungstendenzen der Sprache der Zeitungen auf verschiedenen Ebenen und auf der Grundlage einzelner Korpora sowie die Bewertung der Zeitungssprache aus zeitgenössischer Sicht.
The contributions brought together in this volume deal with German-language newspapers in Central Europe in the ""long 19th century"" from the perspective of the continuing influence of Enlightenment ...ideas in the regional press of the Habsburg Monarchy. Outstanding experts analyse the transfer of Enlightenment concepts in the Central European press. At the same time, the question is raised as to whether these regions had their own ideas of Enlightenment. The essays contained here in German are accompanied by French and English summaries.
Die in diesem Band vereinigten Beiträge befassen sich mit deutschsprachigen Zeitungen Zentraleuropas im „langen 19. Jahrhundert“ unter dem Blickwinkel des Fortwirkens von Aufklärungsideen in der Regionalpresse der habsburgischen Monarchie. Hervorragende Sachkenner analysieren den Transfer aufgeklärter Konzepte in der zentraleuropäischen Presse. Zugleich wird die Frage gestellt, ob es eigene Vorstellungen von Aufklärung in diesen Regionen gab. Die hier enthaltenen Aufsätze in deutscher Sprache sind mit französischen und englischen Zusammenfassungen versehen.
The article is devoted to identifying the current image of Russia in the mirror of the German media after the Ukrainian crisis. The role of the media is noted, the crisis situation in Ukraine is ...characterized. Analyzed publications in the leading print media of Germany on the topic of Russian foreign policy in Ukraine and the role of the Russian Federation in the political crisis in Ukraine (2013–2014). The authors have identified and identified key approaches in the formation of German society a certain idea of Russia and its foreign policy. As conclusions, it is noted that both for objective reasons, and not least thanks to the German media, which use a lot of negative characteristics when constructing the image of Russia, relations between the Russian Federation and the Federal Republic of Germany go through a zone of mutual exclusion. However, relations between the Russian Federation and the Federal Republic of Germany can go to a new level, taking into account the possible pragmatic cooperation of the two states, and provided, among other things, a reduction in the degree of anti-Russian rhetoric in the German media.
This paper examines how German media discourses reflect debates around integration, based on a newspaper corpus spanning the period 2008–2018. Considering these discourses, our research interest is ...focussed on how integration is constructed as a responsibility of those who are expected to integrate into society. To analyze how media might play a role in reproducing essentialist constructions of difference, we present a case study that combines methodologies of corpus linguistics and critical discourse analysis, and that examines discursive practices and strategies linked to dominant discourses about integration in Germany. Our findings show that in the German context, certain ethnicities (here: people of Turkish background) are framed as “other” and these groups are constantly being assessed in terms of integration in ways that others are not.
The article examines the representation and (in)visibility of ageing people in German care institutions during the Covid-19 pandemic. Within the framework of a qualitative content-analytical and ...discourse-analytical study of 185 articles, including 108 images from German newspapers, the authors trace the patterns behind the representation of ageing people. In so doing, they argue that in the media discourse ageing people are often represented without agency and in a strongly homogenised way as “others.” By emphasising pre-existing conditions and vulnerability, older and disabled people appear naturally at risk. The article also problematises the mere counting of life and death in care institutions, which contributes to a naturalisation and symbolic annihilation of the death of ageing people. Furthermore, the authors identify the notion of the suffering old woman as a key figure in pandemic media discourse, performing a critical function. She embodies an appeal to society to show sympathy and solidarity and to act reasonably with respect to the pandemic measures yet contains no elements of discursive agency or personal characteristics beyond that. Additionally, the suffering old woman reinforces traditional patterns of patriarchal representation. The authors conclude that the pandemic has placed the German care crisis in settings of institutionalised geriatric care into the media spotlight. However, the comprehensive inclusion of ageing people has been absent. Emphasising one’s own ability and thus adapting to the midlife years seems to be the only way to precarious inclusion for ageing people in the discourse.

Germany's colonial experience in the Pacific was both relatively short (1884-1914) and also quite dispersed. In addition to administrative staff and office, a well-functioning colonial administration ...also required the means to propagate and document its administrative regulations and decisions. This article examines how the administrative offices in German Samoa and German New Guinea went about their official printing needs. In the Samoa case, the Germans 'inherited' a well-established printing environment, facilitated by newspapers. Here the official publications of the colonial government were merely additional print-jobs. In German New Guinea, however, no such infrastructure pre-existed and the German administration had to start its own press. Over time, the government gazette added no official sections and, had World War I not intervened, was on track to became a local newspaper.
