The German Linguistic Studies Series is a comprehensive and outstanding forum in its field. It has borne the name of its subject in its title since the foundation of the series in the eighth decade of the last century.The series is comprehensive in the broad spectrum of topics covered (language levels, varieties, communication forms, epochs) in the range of research perspectives (theoretical and empirical studies, fundamental research and applications, interdisciplinarity with psychology, the social sciences etc.) and methodologies (the sole criterion is quality), in the rhythm of research (trends are perceived and also set, achievements are secured) and in the forms of presentation (monographs, textbooks, collected volumes, dictionaries).Professorial theses, outstanding doctoral theses, pioneering research findings from wider contexts, but also the surprising ‛stroke of genius’ set the standards for inclusion in the series.

In christlichen Organisationen sind ethisch reflektierte Entscheidungen im Management unerlässlich. Auf diesen Bedarf antwortet das anwendungsorientierte und in der Praxis erprobte Entscheidungsinstrument "Ethisch entscheiden". Damit können Leitungspersonen und -gremien konkrete ökonomische und organisatorische Herausforderungen und Handlungsmöglichkeiten in einem christlichen Werterahmen reflektieren. In diesem Buch wird dieses Instrument vorgestellt, in einen theoretischen Hintergrund eingebettet, seine Anwendung erklärt und erste Erfahrungen reflektiert. Inklusive kostenloser E-Book-Version.

The Handbook assumes the bilateral division of linguistic academic communication matter in both text and conversation and differentiates between the linguistics of texts (Volume 1) and the linguistics of conversation (Volume 2). The two volumes are arranged in a way that they correspond to each other in their overall composition. The intention thereby is to give prominence to the connections between written-monologic and spoken-dialogic communication - despite all dissimilarities between the two - and to faciliate the orientation of the handbook user. The main goals of the handbook are to represent recent international research as well as the historical development of research on this complex subject, to explain the basis of both textual and conversational methods of analysis, to analyze the crucial aspects of the constitution and typology of texts and conversations, as well as to present the dialogue between textual and conversational linguistics with other disciplines and specific areas of practice.
