Äsops Fabeln, auch Äsopika genannt, sind eine Sammlung von Fabeln, die Äsop zugeschrieben werden, einem Sklaven und Geschichtenerzähler, der zwischen 620 und 564 v. Chr. im antiken Griechenland gelebt haben soll. Es war einmal, vor langer Zeit in einem fernen Land, dass alle Dinge und Wesen nicht nur Bewusstsein hatten, sondern sich auch in derselben Sprache verständigen konnten. Diese Geschichten enthalten destillierte Weisheit und können mit großer Wirkung eingesetzt werden. Sie lehren vor allem moralische Lektionen über Liebe und Respekt und Gier und all die inneren Dämonen, die uns ständig plagen. Die Allegorien in den Fabeln sind raffiniert und reichhaltig. Normalerweise sind Tiere die Protagonisten, vielleicht, weil die Darstellung menschlicher Verhaltensweisen - besonders der verächtlichen - im Spiegel unserer tierischen Weltgefährten es uns einfacher macht, die Wurzel des Bösen zu erkennen. Das ist Äsops Welt. Der Schlüssel zu ihr liegt in der Beobachtung, dass gegenseitiges Verständnis nicht schon dadurch entsteht, dass alle Dinge einander verstehen; nein, da fängt der Spaß erst an. Die Fabeln sind eine gute Lektüre für Kinder. Sie sind aber gleichzeitig erstaunlich unterhaltsam für Erwachsene. In aller Kürze zielen sie direkt auf menschliche Alltagserfahrungen ab, die jeder kennt und täglich macht.Das Buch auf dem Sprachniveau A2 bietet eine parallele Übersetzung, die es dem Leser ermöglicht, die englische Sprache in kürzerer Zeit zu lernen. Auf einen Blick lässt sich hier sofort erkennen, was unbekannte Wörter bedeuten. Die Audiodateien sind inklusive und online erhältlich. Mit Hilfe von QR-Codes kann man im Handumdrehen auf eine Audiodatei zugreifen, ohne manuell Webadressen eintippen zu müssen.

"Do You Make These Mistakes in English?"Sherwin Cody was an American writer and entrepreneur who developed a long-running home-study course in speaking and writing with an advertisement with this title.A critic of traditional English education, Cody advocated colloquial style and grammar. He asked: What is the reason so many of us are deficient in the use of English and find our careers stunted in consequence?Why is it some cannot spell correctly and others cannot punctuate?Why do so many find themselves at a loss for words to express their meaning adequately? The reason for the deficiency is clear:Most persons do not write or speak good English simply because they never formed the habit of doing so.Most persons use only common words -- colorless, flat, ordinary. Their speech and their letters are lifeless, monotonous, humdrum.If there is a subject of really universal interest and utility, it is the art of writing and speaking one's own language effectively.It is the basis of culture, as we all know; but it is infinitely more than that: it is the basis of business. No salesman can sell anything unless he can explain the merits of his goods in effective English (among our people), or can write an advertisement equally effective, or present his ideas, and the facts, in a letter.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2021 im Fachbereich Didaktik für das Fach Englisch - Sonstiges, Note: 2,0, Freie Universität Berlin (Dahlem School of Education), Veranstaltung: Englisch Didaktik, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit vergangenen und aktuellen Studien sowie Ermittlungen über CLIL und hinterfragt den Kompetenzerfolg in CLIL-Unterrichten in verschiedenen europäischen Ländern. Ist der Effekt von content and language integrated learning auf Englisch- und Sachfach-Kompetenzen fruchtbar und zieltreffend - wie in seiner Theorie versprochen? Kann das Bildungskonzept CLIL mit dem Lehren von Inhalten durch eine Fremdsprache wirklich zwei Fliegen mit einer Klappe schlagen?Ein zunehmend populäres Konzept, das weltweiten Niederschlag in der bilingualen Bildungslandschaft findet, nennt sich CLIL. CLIL, geprägt von David Marsh und Do Coyle, steht für ¿content and language integrated learning¿ und ist ein Überbegriff für eine Bildungsform, unter der man die Verwendung einer Fremdsprache zur integrativen Vermittlung von Lehrinhalten und Sprachkompetenzen außerhalb des Sprachunterrichts unter Einbindung von Elementen der Fremdsprachendidaktik versteht. Es ist zu betonen, dass diese Methodologie ihren Kernaspekt in ¿dual-fokussierten¿ Zielen hat. So sieht der CLIL-Unterricht vielmehr eine Verflechtung vom Fremdsprachenlernen und Sachfachlernen vor.

Examination Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Culture and Applied Geography, grade: 1,5, University of Leipzig (Anglistik), language: English, abstract: This thesis looks at the ongoing phenomenon of cringe comedy in British contemporary television. Taking a cultural studies perspective, it argues that cringe comedy affects toxic masculinity and the way one perceives masculinities. A close reading of the TV series Peep Show provides a number of examples that give insight into how masculinities are constructed in cringe comedy television and the ideology that comes with awkward jokes. Even though the viewing numbers have always been low for Peep Show, it can be considered a prime example of British comedic television and its recent developments.With increasing awareness of toxic masculinities and the increasing popularity of cringe comedy television formats that undoubtedly shape Western societies and cultures, it becomes relevant to investigate how humour affects gender stereotypes. When exploring the function of comedy and awkwardness in media, Kotsko (¿Awkwardness¿) and Middelton found that awkwardness creates a shift to self-reflecting formats, where the spectatorship is being irritated by the uncomfortableness they feel when their expectations are not met on television programs. Studying the meanings of jokes and gender is relevant to understanding how one interacts in cultures and how they use humour as a social tool. This paper contributes to the fields of cultural studies, media studies, and gender studies since humour is used to rationalise social norms in British society, directly its culture. I will argue that the sitcom Peep Show uses cringe comedy as a tool to uncover, create and criticise toxic masculinity characteristics within our society by evoking laughter in the audience.

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Pedagogy, Literature Studies, grade: 2,0, University of Hildesheim, language: English, abstract: This bachelor thesis is about foreign language test anxiety in EFL learners. Furthermore, this thesis deals with two main questions. The first question is in which way the test anxiety affects the language skills of reading, listening, writing and speaking comprehension. The second question focusses on the factors that impact language test anxiety in oral production.In order to be able to answer these two questions, I will write about the theoretical background in the first part of my bachelor thesis. First, I will introduce second language acquisition in general, followed by a general definition of anxiety. According to the definition, different types of anxiety are represented. After explaining different types of anxiety, I will explain the topic foreign language anxiety specifically.This is followed by an introduction to the topic of foreign language test anxiety. After the theoretical background has been presented, I will discuss various existing studies to answer the two main questions. For this purpose, I will deal separately with reading, listening, writing and oral production regarding the first question. In the second question, I will then focus specifically on factors that can have an impact on test anxiety. At the end, the results are discussed and concluded.
