"A superb new drama written by John Patrick Shanley. It is an inspired study in moral uncertainty with the compellingly certain structure of an old-fashioned detective drama. Even as Doubt holds your conscious attention as an intelligently measured debate play, it sends off stealth charges that go deeper emotionally. One of the year's ten best."--Ben Brantley, The New York Times "[The] #1 show of the year. How splendid it feels to be trusted with such passionate, exquisite ambiguity unlike anything we have seen from this prolific playwright so far. Blunt yet subtle, manipulative but full of empathy for all sides, the play is set in 1964 but could not be more timely. Doubt is a lean, potent drama . . . passionate, exquisite, important, and engrossing."--Linda Winer, Newsday Chosen as the best play of the year by over 10 newspapers and magazines, Doubt is set in a Bronx Catholic school in 1964, where a strong-minded woman wrestles with conscience and uncertainty a...

Gegenstand dieser Untersuchung ist die spezifische Ausprägung des Stimmhaftigkeitskontrastes deutscher Plosive beim Flüstern als einem Sprechmodus, der durch das Fehlen von Stimmton gekennzeichnet ist. Anhand akustischer Daten sieben deutscher Sprecher werden temporale Korrelate des Stimmhaftigkeitskontrastes - Aspirationsdauer, Verschlussdauer und Dauer des vorangehenden Vokals - vergleichend für geflüsterte und normal gesprochene Plosive untersucht. Es kann gezeigt werden, dass die Ausprägung dieser Korrelate weder durch den Stimmtonverlust beim Flüstern beeinträchtigt noch im Sinne einer flüsterspezifischen Kompensationsstrategie programmatisch verstärkt wird. Dieses Ergebnis geht konform mit den für das Deutsche spezifizierten phonologischen Konzeptionen des Stimmhaftigkeitskontrastes als einer Gespanntheitsopposition. Product details ...

Pacifist Invasions is about what happens to the francophone lyric in the translingual Franco-Arabic context. Drawing on lyric theory, comparative poetics, and linguistics, it demonstrates how Arabic literature and Islamic scripture pacifically invade French in the poetry of Habib Tengour (Algeria), Edmond Jabes (Egypt), Salah Stetie (Lebanon), Abdelwahab Meddeb (Tunisia), and Ryoko Sekiguchi (Japan). Pacifist Invasions deploys side-by-side comparisons of classical Arabic literature, Islamic scripture, and the Arabic commentary traditions in the original language against the landscapes of modern and contemporary French and francophone literature, poetry, and poetics. Detailed close readings reveal three generic modes of translating Arabic poetics into the French lyric, and the mechanisms by which poets foreignize French, as they engage in a translational and intertextual relationship with the history and world of Arabic literature. Through fine-grained analyses of poetry, translations, ...
