Dieser Band enthält eine Auswahl von zehn Aufsätzen, welche auf Vorträgen basieren, die in der Sektion Language & Linguistics des Centre for Anglo-German Cultural Relations (CAGCR) am Queen Mary College der University of London seit Herbst 2006 gehalten wurden. Behandelt wird zunächst die Frage nach der Stellung der Sprachwissenschaft in den britischen German Studies. Sodann wird nicht nur der englischsprachige Einfluss auf das deutsche, österreichische und schweizer Deutsch abgedeckt, sondern auch jener des Deutschen auf das Englische. Weitere Beiträge beschäftigen sich hinsichtlich Anglizismen mit deren Integration, mit Problemen ihrer Genusbildung, mit ihrem Vorkommen im Luxemburgischen, mit ihrer Rolle in einer multiethnischen Jugendsprache, sowie mit möglichen Zusammenhängen zwischen Sprachpurismus und Globalisierung. This volume contains a selection of ten papers based on lectures which have been given in the Language & Linguistics section of the Centre for Anglo-German Cultural Relations (CAGCR) at Queen Mary, University of London, since autumn 2006. The first paper discusses the position of Linguistics in British German Studies; subsequent papers discuss not only the influence of English on Swiss German, Austrian German, and German in Germany, but also the German influence on English. Other papers deal with the integration of anglicisms in the German language, problems of the grammatical gender of anglicisms, their position in Luxembourgish, their role in a multi-ethnic youth variety, and the connections between linguistic purism and globalization.
