This book is the first in-depth investigation of the expression of agency in verbal noun and impersonal/passive constructions in medieval Welsh and Irish, drawing on a database of texts from different genres: narrative, legal, and annalistic. The analysis is primarily data-oriented, rather than theory-oriented, although it draws on methods and concepts from functional grammar approaches and cognitive linguistics. Written with readers from a wide variety of backgrounds in mind, Agents in Early Welsh and Early Irish goes beyond earlier contributions in the field of Celtic syntax and semantics in several important ways: It presents data from both Welsh and Irish It discusses both the internal structure of verbal noun and passive/impersonal constructions and their contributions to their contexts It offers new analyses of agency and its markers in medieval Welsh and Irish, as well as analyses of the marking of instrument, cause, and indirect agency

Die Figur des Feirefiz in Wolframs Parzival besticht vor allem durch seine zweifarbige Haut und die Beschreibung, er sehe aus wie ein beschriebenes Stuck Pergament. Ausgehend von der Frage, wie und wo in der Literatur einer Kultur der Sichtbarkeit reflexive Wahrnehmungsprozesse stattfinden, ruckt der Figurenkoerper in den Mittelpunkt der Untersuchung. Der theoretische Zugriff uber den Figurenkoerper als lesbare Oberflache und als Trager von Konzeption ermoeglicht es, kulturspezifische literarische Vermittlungsstrategien im Parzival in den Blick zu nehmen. Die Arbeit thematisiert so die Frage nach der Rolle der Schrift in der Schrift einer semioralen Gesellschaft und geht der Funktion von Schriftkoerpern und Koerperschrift im Parzival nach. Eines der zentralen Ergebnisse ist dabei das Zusammenfallen von Ritterschaft und Schrift in der Figur des Feirefiz - er ist das Schriftstuck Gottes.

Selvbiografisk kjærlighetsroman, bestående av 498 småstykker. Den skildrer forholdet mellom to kvinner, og gjenfortelles etter bruddet, i knappe, utleverende og følelsesmessige bruddstykker, uten kronologisk rekkefølge. "Jeg" er den kjærlighetsrammede lesbiske fortelleren som søker å gjenskape og forlenge kjærligheten ved å skrive om den. Hun formidler lidenskapen i et kjærlighetsforhold hvor hver detalj komprimeres eller blåses opp, fordi det dreier seg om forbudt kjærlighet.
