Beschreibung
This volume presents sixteen essays by friends and colleagues celebrating
Gisela Hermann-Brennecke’s 60th birthday. Since the early 1970s, when she
emerged as one of the outstanding German specialists in language
acquisition and language teaching, she has been active in research and
teaching at various German universities (Münster, Osnabrück, Vechta, and
Halle-Wittenberg) and abroad, in the U.K. (Hull University), France
(Université Paris V – Sorbonne; Université Catholique de l’Ouest –
Angers), Hungary (Janus Pannonius University – Pecs), and in the U.S.
(University of Cincinnati/Ohio; University of New Mexico – Albuquerque).
The wide range of Gisela Hermann-Brennecke’s research interests and
publications – transcending boundaries – is mirrored in the diversity of
the contributions in this volume: language learning and language policy –
studies in English, American, and Postcolonial literatures and cultures –
creative writing.
