Because the internet is a highly volatile medium and online content can become inaccessible after the campaign season, new challenges for research arise as well as the need for the preservation of online content. Moreover, the sheer volume of data researchers have to deal with has reached levels where traditional methods are being highly challenged. This paper puts forth a web harvesting workflow with a strong focus on granular extraction of unstructured information (publication dates) for automated analysis. As our approach is methodological, we would like to point out the benefits that researches in political science may draw from adapting our methodology. We demonstrate this by analysing an event-based web crawl of German parties participating in the election campaign for the European Parliamentary Election in 2019. We employ distant reading methods to generate topic models, which are subsequently evaluated by hermeneutic analysis of a subset of the data.}, language = {en} } @article{Sommer2023, author = {Sommer, Tim}, title = {Romantic objects, Victorian collections : scribal relics and the authorial body}, series = {Literature Compass}, volume = {21}, journal = {Literature Compass}, number = {1-3}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Hoboken}, doi = {10.1111/lic3.12703}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:739-opus4-16248}, pages = {10 Seiten}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Over the course of the nineteenth century, literary manuscripts came to be seen as tangible evidence of the creative process and as a key to the personality of the author. The material traces of writing were understood to outlive their creators and promise to resurrect the authorial body through the magic of the relic. This article reconstructs how authorial script gradually transformed into a collectible object pursued as a memento and a commodity. Letters, drafts, and fair copies by major modern writers found their way into the collections of British aristocrats and American industrialists at the same time that hunting for literary autographs diversified into a middle-class pursuit. Surveying recent scholarship on nineteenth-century collecting and material culture, the essay offers a condensed cultural history of the literary manuscript as a collectible and draws attention to how collectors and collecting feature in fictional texts of the period. It focuses on the artefactual mobility and custodial afterlives of Romantic papers in Victorian literature and culture, exploring a form of collecting which crossed boundaries between periods and national literary traditions.}, language = {en} } @article{Thir2023, author = {Thir, Veronika}, title = {Co-text, context, and listening proficiency as crucial variables in intelligibility among nonnative users of English}, series = {Studies in Second Language Acquisition}, volume = {45}, journal = {Studies in Second Language Acquisition}, number = {5}, publisher = {Cambridge University Press}, address = {Cambridge}, doi = {10.1017/S0272263123000207}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:739-opus4-16374}, pages = {1210 -- 1231}, year = {2023}, abstract = {Research on intelligibility in international encounters has long focused on issues of pronunciation to the detriment of factors such as linguistic co-text and extralinguistic context, which are comparatively well-studied variables in intelligibility research concerning L1 listeners.

While psycholinguistic studies highlight its importance in language processing, the role of meaning in early lexical access and its representation remain unclear. This study investigates when meaning becomes accessible during the processing of Maltese verb forms, using a computational model based on the Discriminative Lexicon framework. Our model effectively comprehends and produces Maltese verbs, while also predicting response times in a masked auditory priming experiment. Results show that meaning is accessible early in lexical access and becomes more prominent after the target word is fully processed. This suggests that semantic information plays a critical role from the initial stages of lexical access, refining our understanding of real-time language comprehension. Our findings contribute to theories of lexical access and offer valuable insights for designing priming studies in psycholinguistics. Additionally, this study demonstrates the potential of computational models in investigating the relationship between form and meaning in language processing.}, language = {en} } @article{Sinn2024, author = {Sinn, Johanna}, title = {Grenzen aufopfernder Pflege}, series = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Ethik und Moralphilosophie (ISSN: 2522-0071)}, volume = {7}, journal = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Ethik und Moralphilosophie (ISSN: 2522-0071)}, number = {1}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Berlin/Heidelberg}, issn = {2522-0071}, doi = {10.1007/s42048-024-00173-6}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:101:1-2408062121464.920156372049}, pages = {281 -- 284}, year = {2024}, language = {de} } @article{KaeglerSchreiner2023, author = {K{\"a}gler, Britta and Schreiner, Eva-Maria}, title = {Women, opera and the public stage in eighteenth-century Venice : Fondazione Levi, Venice, 23-24 May 2022}, series = {Eighteenth-Century Music}, volume = {20}, journal = {Eighteenth-Century Music}, number = {1}, publisher = {Cambridge University Press}, address = {Cambridge}, doi = {10.1017/S147857062200029X}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:739-opus4-16410}, pages = {116 -- 119}, year = {2023}, language = {en} } @article{Reiter2022, author = {Reiter, Florence}, title = {Die Rolle der Europawahl 2019 in der Online-Medienberichterstattung.

Previous scholars have discussed the poet's engagement with Thomas Noon Talfourd's petition in the 1830s as indicative of the period's larger negotiation of the economic and cultural values of literary art. This essay argues that beyond issues of economic and aesthetic recognition, Wordsworth is aware of the significance of copyright as a central means of shaping the author's communication with his readers. Within the proliferating mediascape in print in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, Wordsworth draws on the agency afforded by copyright to intervene in the process of mediation. Proposing mediation as an important new analytical approach to the discourses and practices of Romantic authorship, this essay outlines Wordsworth's efforts toward controlling the codes and channels of communication as crucial concerns in the period's evolving print culture.}, language = {en} } @article{GrosskopfBarmeyerLandes2024, author = {Grosskopf, Sina and Barmeyer, Christoph and Landes, Andreas}, title = {Organizational integration of highly skilled migrants?

Whereas prior research has mainly focused on macro-economic and macro-political analysis, little is known about the dynamic process of organizational level integration. Applying Strauss' theory of social worlds and the concept of multiple cultures, we dismantle the boundaries of an organization describing the integration processes of migrants from the perspective of different social worlds that intersect an organization. We use social worlds which form around a core activity or context of action to describe different levels of cultures within an organization. Via multifaceted identification with these multiple cultures, we suggest that person-organization interaction and mutual intercultural learning processes with colleagues result in organizations conveying values, norms, behavior, language and social contacts that prove valuable and integrative, especially to newcomers. Based on three qualitative case studies in German SMEs, migrants' experiences during the integration process show the central role organizations play inhibiting previously overlooked multi-cultural social worlds which lead not only to their organizational integration, but to societal integration as well. Organizations thus contribute to different forms of integration. Consequently, this paper extends traditional integration perspectives at the national or transnational level of analysis by differentiating into multiple cultures that provide integrative knowledge both internally and beyond the organization. In particular, interaction with colleagues as socialization agents leads to integration. Theory and practice should draw conclusions from this to consider integration as a multilayered opportunity.}, language = {en} } @article{RehbeinEscobariFischeretal.2025, author = {Rehbein, Malte and Escobari, Belen and Fischer, Sarah and G{\"u}ntsch, Anton and Haas, Bettina and Matheisen, Giada and Perschl, Tobias and Wieshuber, Alois and Engel, Thore}, title = {Quantitative and qualitative data on historical vertebrate distributions in Bavaria 1845}, series = {scientific data}, volume = {2025}, journal = {scientific data}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, address = {Berlin}, doi = {10.1038/s41597-025-04846-8}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:101:1-2506092137360.319993244702}, pages = {13 Seiten}, year = {2025}, abstract = {Archival collections contain an underutilized wealth of biodiversity data, encapsulated in government files and other historical documents.
