Sommario/riassunto

The comprehensive analysis of the segmental and metrical system of the Swiss German dialect of Thurgovian provides a significant contribution to both phonetic and phonological theory. Based on the author's original fieldwork and experimental investigations, it is the first in-depth study of this area, tracing it back also to its Old High German roots, particularly that of the dialect of Notker. Quantity alternations - notably word-initial long/short consonantal alternations - asymmetric neutralization of phonetic-phonological contrasts, stress and weight are most prominent among the theoretica

Sommario/riassunto

Archaeological, epigraphic, numismatic, and historical research is used to illuminate the meaning and function of temples in both Jewish and Greco-Roman cultures. This evidence is then brought into a dialogue with a literary analysis of how the temple functions as a symbol in Revelation.

Die Bedeutung und Funktion von Tempeln sowohl in der jüdischen wie auch der griechisch-römischen Kultur wird mittels archäologischer, epigraphischer, numismatischer und historischer Forschung erhellt. Die Ergebnisse werden dann in einer Textanalyse der biblischen Johannesoffenbarung angewendet. Leitend ist dabei die Fragestellung, wie in der Offenbarung auf den Tempel als bedeutungsreiches Symbol zurückgegriffen wird.
