Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

The content of the proseminar is theory formation and method development in historical-comparative linguistics, especially with regard to recent interdisciplinary interconnections. Students are expected to prepare units by provided literature and to discuss them in the group.

Assessment and permitted materials

One paper will be covered in each unit. For each of these, short summaries (short sentences) and 1-2 critical questions are to be uploaded before the respective unit; these written papers account for 50% of the grade. Furthermore, a paper has to be presented once in a unit (30% of the grade), the remaining 20% of the grade is based on the participation in the discussion.

The use of AI programs to automatically generate the summaries or papers is NOT permitted.
