• Sommario/riassunto: Gotthold Ephraim Lessings (1729-1781) »Emilia Galotti« liegt in einer neuen historisch-kritischen Ausgabe vor. Resultat der Auseinandersetzung mit den Quellen ist eine Ausgabe, die sich in drei große Bereiche gliedert: Der edierte Text folgt der Erstausgabe vom März 1772. Durch gründliche Analysen des Erstdruckes und der 1948 wieder gefundenen Druckvorlage konnten der Druckverlauf geklärt und bislang zweifelhafte Stellen eindeutig als Druckfehler identifiziert und emendiert werden. In einem Apparatteil findet sich eine ausführliche Beschreibung der zeitgenössischen Handschriften und Drucke und ihrer Abhängigkeiten zueinander. Ein Variantenverzeichnis gibt Aufschluß über alle Unterschiede der autorisierten Textträger. Jeder Eingriff seitens der Herausgeberin wird separat vermerkt und begründet. Einführende Kapitel zur Entstehung und Wirkung ergänzen diesen Teil. Ein Verzeichnis der Aufführungen zu Lebzeiten Lessings enthält darüber hinaus bisher unbekannte Vorstellungen und gibt Auskunft über die Besetzung sowie das Begleitprogramm. Den dritten Schwerpunkt bildet ein Dokumentationsteil mit über 500 zeitgenössischen Rezeptionszeugnissen. Die Dokumente sind durch ein detailliertes Register leicht zugänglich. Es werden Verknüpfungen einzelner Texte aufgezeigt und der jeweilige Inhalt kurz erwähnt. Ein Personenverzeichnis komplettiert die Ausgabe. Durch das dargebotene umfangreiche Material ist es jetzt möglich, sich auf einer völlig neuen Datenbasis mit Lessings Trauerspiel auseinanderzusetzen.

• Sommario/riassunto: This volume presents a comprehensive study of what constitutes Translation Competence, from the various sub-competences to the overall skill. Contributors combine experience as translation scholars with their experience as teachers of translation. The volume is organized into three sections: Defining, Building, and Assessing Translation Competence.The chapters offer insights into the nature of translation competence and its place in the translation training programme in an academic environment and show how theoretical considerations have contributed to defining, building and assessing translation competence, offering practical examples of how this can be achieved.The first section introduces major sub-competences, including linguistic, cultural, textual, subject, research, and transfer competence. The second section presents issues relating to course design, methodology and teaching practice. The third section reflects on criteria for quality assessment.

• Sommario/riassunto: This is a collaborative effort led by David Lane of Rice University. The ; core material is an interactive textbook that is best used over the Internet to take advantage of the embedded questions created in JavaScript. The PDF version that can be downloaded simply shows the answers in a different font following the questions.An attractive feature of Online Statistics is the suite of case studies making use of the actual data from published studies in the scientific literature and popular media. The data sets for the case studies are provided as Excel files. The website also provides some computational tools running in the browser for the statistical calculations needed for the analysis of the case studies, although instructors may prefer to use free software such as R or software already available at their institutions.Also part of the course is a set of 31 simulations illustrating key concepts such as the meaning of a 95% confidence interval. Some are written in JavaScript and run without difficulty, but others are written in Java and may present a problem because of the security concerns surrounding Java applets running in browsers.
