2. Democratizing Creativity by Enhancing Imagery and Agency: A Review and Meta-Analysis

Karwowski, Maciej, Zielinska, Aleksandra, and Jankowska, Dorota M.
- Abstract
Creativity is a vital topic of various educational discourses, yet the support it receives within the school system is insufficient. This chapter focuses on four particular ways of making creativity more democratized, salient, and accessible in school settings. We start by exploring the educational benefits of egalitarian theoretical approaches to creativity. Then, we posit that democratization requires an equal focus on the cognitive aspects of creative potential and the motivational sphere of self-perception and self-regulation. Third, analyzing cognitive characteristics, we pay special attention to creative imagery: an understudied yet critical aspect of creative potential. By meta-analyzing available evidence from interventional studies, we show that there are multiple effective approaches to enhancing creative imagery, so--in a sense--supporting creative potential might be democratized as well by going beyond creativity training. Fourth, and finally, we discuss the possibilities of adapting so-called wise interventions for the educational psychology of creativity. We review available evidence of how to strengthen creative confidence and the perceived value of creativity among students, and how to make their creative self-regulation more effective.

- Abstract
One of the key elements in the learning process is the instruction time available to students. In fact, not only the quality of instruction but also the time spent for learning can have a positive effect on students' learning process. This instruction time report analyses the recommended minimum instruction time in full-time compulsory general education in 39 European education systems for the year 2020/21. Special attention is paid to reading, writing and literature, mathematics, natural sciences and social studies. The report outlines how reading, writing and literature are the subject areas that take up the largest share of instruction time, especially in primary education. Mathematics represents the second largest share of instruction time. The report also briefly examines whether the COVID-19 crisis has affected total instruction time. In addition to the comparative analysis, the report also includes national diagrams that illustrate data by country and subject, collected jointly by the Eurydice and the OECD NESLI networks.

4. A New Model of Literary Competences and the Revised CEFR Descriptors
- Author
-
Alter, Grit and Ratheiser, Ulla
- Abstract
This article presents a new theoretical model of literary competences for use in the language classroom. The work has been both triggered by an unintended consequence of the introduction of the original CEFR in 2001, namely the marginalization of literature teaching, and inspired by the inclusion of literature in the 2018 Companion. It proposes ways to move away from a pure language-based approach to using literature by providing a model for developing literary literacy in the learner. It outlines four basic literary competences, defines each, and illustrates how they can be both used in class and related to the new CEFR descriptors and existing levels.

- Abstract
The Council of the European Union has set the goal of reducing low achievement in reading, mathematics and science among 15-year-olds to less than 15 % by 2020. How are European countries going to achieve this? One of the key elements in the learning process is the instruction time available to students. In fact, not only the quality of instruction but also the time spent for learning can have a positive effect on students' learning process. This instruction time report analyses the recommended minimum instruction time in full-time compulsory general education in 43 European education systems for the year 2018/19. Special attention is paid to reading, writing and literature, mathematics, natural sciences and social studies. The report outlines how reading, writing and literature are the subject areas that take up the largest share of instruction time, especially in primary education. Mathematics represents the second largest share of instruction time. In addition to the comparative analysis, the report also includes national diagrams that illustrate data by country and subject, collected jointly by the Eurydice and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Network for the Collection and Adjudication of System-Level Descriptive Information on Educational Structures, Policies and Practices (OECD NESLI) networks.

Central States Conference on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (CSCTFL) and Dhonau, Stephanie
- Abstract
This year's volume of the Central States Conference on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (CSCTFL) Report centering on the conference theme of MultiTasks, MultiSkills, and MultiConnections focused on the importance or world language use within the classroom and beyond with articles extending the conversation on target language use in instruction, on 21st century skills and accompanying Web 2.0 technologies that faculty and students can access and use to connect to the larger world, and applications of standards based instruction at K-16 levels of instruction. The profession's K-16 "Standards for Foreign Language Learning in the 21st Century" are well represented in this year's volume as all articles connect in some manner with one or more of the 5Cs in meaningful ways, demonstrating how the profession has embraced the national conversation on what "students should know and be able to do in a second or multiple language". The collection of articles in the MultiTasks section, share the theme of instructor target language (TL) use with recent attention placed on the role of the target language in instructed situations. In the MultiSkills section of this publication, readers will find a focus on the Partnership for 21st Century skills and technology integration in three articles. Articles in MultiConnections integrate various aspects of language learning usage for various purposes including connections to the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR), to service learning for collegiate intermediate Spanish students not necessarily pursuing a major or minor in the language, and to innovations for providing more literature exposure into language learning. "Innovative Approaches to teaching Literature in the World language classroom," examines the need to provide and support literary texts in language instruction by bridging the gap between developing language proficiency for interpersonal communication and developing literary understanding of authentic literary texts.

- Abstract
The Council of the European Union has set the goal of reducing low achievement in reading, mathematics and science among 15-year-olds to less than 15 % by 2020. How are European countries going to achieve this? One of the key elements in the learning process is the instruction time available to students. In fact, not only the quality of instruction but also the time available for learning can have a positive effect on students' learning process, in particular, in the case of disadvantaged students. This Instruction Time report analyses the recommended minimum instruction time in full-time compulsory general education in 43 European education systems for the year 2017-2018. Special attention is paid to subjects, with a special focus on reading, writing and literature, mathematics, natural sciences and social studies. The report outlines how reading, writing and literature are the subject area that takes up the largest share of instruction time, especially in primary education. Mathematics represents the second largest share of instruction time. Its share decreases at secondary level in favour of other subjects such as foreign languages. In addition to the comparative analysis, the report includes national diagrams that illustrate data by country and subject, which have been collected jointly by the Eurydice and the NESLI networks. Eurydice has been collecting data on instruction time for more than two decades and updates annually these findings, available on the Eurydice website since 2010.

8. Searching for the Soul: Athena's Owl in the Comparative Education Cosmos
- Author

Silova, Iveta
- Abstract
Professor Kazamias has argued that comparative education has lost its "soul," by abandoning its historical and humanist episteme in the first half of the 20th century and turning to an ahistorical and nonhumanist social science today. This essay takes the readers on a journey across time and space in search of comparative education's "soul," briefly encountering a goddess in Greek mythology, a witch in medieval Europe, Alice in Wonderland, and Donna Haraway in the Chthulucene.

- Abstract
This report examines the recommended minimum instruction time in full-time compulsory general education in 2016/17 in 42 European education systems. It includes national diagrams illustrating the data by country and by subject. The comparative overview examines the policy changes that have taken place over the last year regarding the recommended instruction time and its distribution across subjects. It also looks into the minimum instruction time allocated to several subjects which are currently of particular interest at European level; reading, writing and literature, maths, natural sciences, the teaching of other languages, and physical education and health. For maths and natural sciences it compares the instruction time reported by teachers and students in TIMSS [an international assessment of mathematics and science at the fourth and eighth grades] and PISA [Programme for International Student Assessment] surveys with the minimum recommended by education authorities.

- Abstract
Reading, writing and literature, mathematics, natural sciences and foreign languages are recognised as core subjects in all European countries. But how much time do students spend on those subjects at school, and how much does this instruction time vary across countries? This report provides information about the recommended minimum instruction time across core subjects in full-time general compulsory education in 37 European countries participating in the Eurydice network. The reference year is 2015/16. The publication offers a comparative overview of the differences between primary and compulsory general secondary education, and identifies the main changes since 2010/11. It also includes national diagrams and maps illustrating the data on minimum instruction time by country and by subject. [For the 2014-2015 report, see ED593463.]

- Abstract
Since 2010, annually updated data on instruction time has been available on the Eurydice website. Given the great similarities between the two data collections, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and Eurydice networks have decided to produce one single data collection tool and conjointly manage the data collection on instruction time. This common work avoids inconsistencies and overlaps between similar sets of internationally comparable data. This publication provides information on instruction time in various forms: national data sheets, indicators and country specific notes. Part I defines the scope of the document and offers relevant definitions. Part II contains a comparative analysis that covers various instruction time indicators. Part III begins with a reading guide to the diagrams (national data sheets). This guide briefly explains what the diagrams show and how to read them, and lists the acronyms and abbreviations they use. The diagrams are located in Part III Section 2 (Instruction time by country), and Part III Section 3 (Instruction time by subject). Part III Section 4 contains an appendix to the diagrams, that includes diagrams on instruction time for subjects or curriculum categories that are only present in a small number of curricula in European countries (i.e. instruction time for the third and the fourth foreign languages (languages 4 and 5) as compulsory subjects and for the non-compulsory curriculum). Part III Section 5 provides country specific notes complementary to the information provided in the diagrams. [For the 2013-2014 report, see ED593446.]

12. The Language Situation in Luxembourg
- Author

Horner, Kristine and Weber, Jean Jacques
- Abstract
This monograph describes the overall language situation in Luxembourg, a highly multilingual country in Western Europe, from a language policy and planning perspective. The first part discusses the social and historical contexts, including major societal changes and uncertainties about the future, which are bound up with Europeanisation and the accelerated processes of globalisation. It also deconstructs the notions of Luxembourgish as a "minority language" and French as the "language of prestige", and describes a two-pronged language ideology that allows for either monolingual identification with Luxembourgish or trilingual identification with the languages recognised by the language law of 1984 (Luxembourgish/ German/ French). The second part discusses the trilingual school-system, a system in which large numbers of romanophone students are forced to go through a German-language literacy programme. The third part provides an overview of language spread in the areas of the media and literary writing. The fourth part examines language purism and tensions concerning the standardisation of Luxembourgish, as well as the debates about language requirements for citizenship. The discussion shows how language policy scholarship needs to be approached from a multidimensional perspective, that is, by taking into account dynamics on the global, regional and local levels in addition to those at the state level. (Contains 1 figure, 1 table, and 12 notes.)

13. Teaching the 'Future of Europe': A Report on an Interdisciplinary Course in the Center for Western European Studies at Kalamazoo College.

Brockington, Joseph L.
- Abstract
This paper discusses the goals, planning, methodology, problems, and outcomes of an interdisciplinary course on the future of Europe that was offered for the first time in the summer quarter 1989 as part of the Center for Western European Studies at Kalamazoo College (Michigan). Intended particularly for students who had completed foreign study in Western Europe, the course focused on the patterns and trends in politics, social structure, intellectual life, and literature and the arts which seem to dominate Western European life. Special consideration was given to the extent to which these patterns and trends are: (1) interconnected; (2) reflective of an emergent European culture (as opposed to separate national cultures); and (3) of consequence for both the future of Europe and for relations between Europe and other nations. The course was divided into five major topical sections: (1) "The Development of Contemporary European Social Structure;" (2) "The Intellectual and Cultural Institutions of Europe;" (3) "European Art, Music, and Literature;" (4) "The Political and Economic Structure of Europe;" and (5) "Environmental Issues." Each of these topics was discussed by faculty members at the College with expertise and research interests in these areas. One faculty member coordinated the presentations and facilitated the students' attempts to bring all of the information into some manageable form. At the end of the quarter, the students put on a mini-conference on "The Future of Europe" with their own papers and presentations. (JB)

This introductory essay confronts the idea of Europe and Europeanness from the standpoint of global literary studies. It makes the case for a pluralistic conception of world literature through a prospective analysis of the literary European semi-periphery. With the aim of overcoming the conflation between world literature and the global anglophone (as much as that of Europe and the West), we draw on previous research on the European semi-periphery and its "small/minor" literatures with three main goals in mind: to better understand the contentious relationship between less-circulated European narratives and world literature; to explore the contested imaginaries of Europe and Europe's border zones that these fictions produce; and, lastly, to identify a constellation of thematic, generic, formal, and affective concerns that contribute to reimagining Europe through specific exploratory poetics. Through the examination of this framework, the essay critically interrogates and problematizes the idea of Europe from its margins and explores the ways in which narrative form can contribute to contesting unitary ideas around a multilayered and conflicted European literary field.

REFUGEES ,IMMIGRANTS ,ENTREPRENEURSHIP - Abstract
Objective: The objective of this article is to systematically analyse the current academic research on refugee entrepreneurship in Europe and beyond. Refugee entrepreneurship represents a burgeoning area of study that has become increasingly significant following the European migrant crisis in 2015 and the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022. We seek to determine how studies on refugee entrepreneurship differ in their theoretical approaches and methodologies from traditional research on immigrant and ethnic entrepreneurship. Research Design & Methods: The study adopts a systematic literature review method to identify and analyse key articles which discuss refugee entrepreneurship. We analysed the content of 75 academic publications to get a deeper understating of the research methods, and theoretical approaches, analysed ethnic groups, and destination countries and the key findings. Specifically, we explore how the current literature portrays the latest wave of Ukrainian refugees in the European Union. Findings: Our study reveals that research on refugee entrepreneurship is still in its early, predominantly exploratory stages. Most of the articles we reviewed were empirical, with a distinct preference for qualitative methods. A significant limitation of existing research is its static analysis; most studies were cross-sectional, which fails to capture the dynamic nature of entrepreneurial activities. Furthermore, our review highlights a clear dichotomy in the circumstances of refugees displaced within Europe - primarily Ukrainians and those from the Balkans - compared to those originating from the Middle East or African countries. Implications & Recommendations: We advocate for a more comprehensive approach to the study of refugee entrepreneurship, particularly through longitudinal analyses that can track changes within refugee-owned firms and the evolving attitudes of refugees towards entrepreneurship. We also recommend further investigation into the interactions between refugees and economic migrants, especially those from the same country or those who speak a similar language and share cultural ties. Such interactions could influence the evolution of opportunity structures in the destination countries, potentially leading to the creation of ethnic enclaves. Contribution & Value Added: We contribute to the existing literature on refugee entrepreneurship by identifying key researchers and most cited articles, and by discussing the evolution and adaptation of the most popular theoretical approaches used in these studies.

PATENTS , *LITERATURE - Abstract
We investigate the role of both internal and external co‐inventor networks in regional diversification. The impact of co‐inventor networks on regional technological diversification is tested for a data set containing 1,495,699 patents in 643 technologies in 290 European regions at the NUTS‐2 level, between 1987 and 2016. Our results show that both internal co‐inventor network connectivity and external co‐inventor network linkages could benefit regional technology entry and prevent regional technology exit. However, too inwardly oriented or outwardly connected co‐inventor networks would hamper patent production. Regarding regional diversification, we find that both internal and external co‐inventor networks could facilitate the entry of related technologies and restrain the exit of complex technologies. This paper contributes to the literature by initiating the integration of the complexity dimension into analysing the role of co‐inventor networks in regional diversification. This research bears significant policy implications for the advancement of Smart Specialization Strategy in the European Union. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This special issue started years ago as part of a collective reading group on the public sphere with colleagues at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands. A significant portion of our initial time was dedicated to understanding Jurgen Habermas' (1989 [1962]) foundational contributions, which established the basis for a wide-ranging and complex field of study. This field spans social and political theory, media and communication studies, sociology, and philosophy. Since then, scholars from diverse disciplines have responded to and critiqued Habermas' concept, contributing to the development and refinement of its analytical potential by challenging the implicit normativity of Habermas' initial notion. These critical reactions have further enriched the theoretical landscape by expanding its scope and applications. One point on which Habermas' initial work was opened significantly related to the exclusionary nature of the historical practice described by Habermas by exposing the historical situatedness and specificity of his concept of the public sphere.

LITERATURE , *PHOTOGRAPHY ,EUROPEAN Heritage Days - Abstract
This article considers how the novel Soul Tourists (2005) by the British writer Bernardine Evaristo and the series Project Diaspora: a Journey through Time (2014) by the Senegalese photographer Omar Victor Diop critically intervene in and contribute to ongoing conversations about how 'Europe' is conceptualized. By adapting historical narratives and by playing with genre conventions, Evaristo and Diop shed light on historical perspectives and interpretations of Europe that have remained obscured. Most important with regard to the European public sphere, Soul Tourists and Project Diaspora adapt the category of 'European heritage'. Artistically re-narrating the stories of Black people in Europe, Evaristo and Diop establish geographical and historical dialogues between Europe, Africa and the African Diaspora that re-write European heritage and that deconstruct the prevailing narrative of Europe as White. While their works could be said to 'Africanize' the categories of 'European heritage' and 'Europe', 'Afro(euro)pean heritage' and 'Afroeurope' are not the end-goal. Rather, by adapting categories that many Europeans continue to conceive as universals, Evaristo and Diop reveal received understandings of these categories as racialized particulars.

EMIGRATION & immigration , *LITERATURE , *TRAVEL writing , *IMMIGRANTS - Abstract
Literature of the twentieth and twenty-first century is often concerned with migration, immigration, and exile. Zadie Smith's White Teeth, Michel Houellebecq's Submission, and Mohsin Hamid's Exit West, narrate the lives of immigrants and refugees and the negotiations between migrants and host nations. They trace the transformations on the idea of Europe and how it is challenged in the face of socio-historical crises. Kapka Kassabova's Border belongs to a long tradition of Eastern European writing that engages in a dialogue with the idea of Europe. Viewed from its edges and through narratives of migration, Europe emerges as a geographical, linguistic, and cultural space whose oneness is an impossibility considering the stories of dislocation housed in its cities.

The authors examine the evolution of board game authorship between 1845 and 1984, based on an analysis of a corpus of more than thirty-seven hundred games from the University Sorbonne Paris North's Fonds Patrimonial du Jeu de Société, a board game collection of more than fifteen thousand titles. Overall, they show that game authors have rarely received credit from publishers, although they increasingly do so now, testifying to the existence of a legitimization process for board games. The authors also discuss the difference in the status of the author for games in Europe and North America, highlighted by the different proportion of games credited or in the terms used for such crediting. Finally, they explore the questions of author gender, transmediality, and the porous distinction between intellectual property and authorship. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Cesarean birth (CB) rates have increased over recent years with concerns over differences between these rates in migrant communities compared with the rates among women in their receiving country. This review aimed at summarizing the available literature regarding the incidence of CB among migrants in Europe. Methods: A systematic search of four electronic databases was carried out, including CINAHL, MEDLINE, Scopus, and Maternity and Infant Care. Identified studies were screened and their quality assessed. Meta‐analysis was undertaken using Rev Man 5.4 where sufficient data were available. Otherwise, data were synthesized narratively. Results: From the 435 records identified in searches, 21 papers were included. Analysis shows that overall CB rates were significantly lower for Syrian refugee women compared with women in their receiving country (Turkey) and higher for Iranian migrants than women in their host country. Emergency CB rates were significantly higher for migrant women from "Sub Saharan Africa" and the "South East Asia, Asia and Pacific" region than rates in the receiving country. Statistical significance was not found between other populations. Conclusions: This review highlights differences between CB rates in certain migrant groups in comparison with women native to their host country, which merits further investigation for potential explanations. We also identified a need to standardize definitions and population groupings to enable more meaningful analysis. This review also highlights a substantial lack of data on CB rates between different population groups that could negatively impact the provision of care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BORDER crossing ,STORYTELLING ,DYSTOPIAS ,MAGIC realism (Literature) ,UTOPIAS ,LITERATURE ,NARRATIVES - Abstract
In this article, fantastic elements of cross-border storytelling are examined in terms of their form and function. Using two examples from contemporary literature, Lana Lux' Kukolka (2017) and Maxi Obexer's Wenn gefährliche Hunde lachen (2011), spatial border crossings in the context of migration and flight are initially focused on. In these texts it can be observed that science fiction-like conceptions of utopia and dystopia are projected onto Europe. Then, with an analysis of the magical realism in Saša Stanišić's Herkunft (2019), border crossings on narrative and genre levels are considered. What all three texts have in common is that they parallel real escapes and fictional escapism and thereby create a principle of two worlds which are always linked to each other.

Since the rise of postmodernism and the archival turn in the mid-nineteen nineties with the writings of Jacques Derrida and others, much scholarship has been dedicated to the question 'who is not represented in the archives?' Indeed, suggested changes and alterations to traditional archival practice include the incorporation of newer models like social provenance, oral history testimonies, shared-stewardship, and community archives. While this wealth of attention and consideration towards creating more inclusive archives today are sorely needed, what can be done for archives of more distant pasts? In this article, I evaluate a number of different scholarly works which address, or demonstrate, the issue of finding minority voices in early modern archives specifically. Whether through the study of works of art, literature, or legal, government documents, these authors either find ways to breathe life into past histories once assumed to be utterly lost, or their problematic analyses uncover potential for using such methods.

PHILOSOPHY , *CRITICAL thinking , *ANTIQUITIES , *LITERATURE - Abstract
The ancient Greek world gave world literary philosophy great names such as Plato, Homer, Aeschylus, Sophocles and others who revolutionized the art of writing and told it the idea of critical thinking, on the forms, styles and skills of making art generally. In ancient antiquity these attitudes were primary, and it was almost impossible for the writings to break away from the tradition, which at its core was dominated by tragedy, as one of the formats that would later dominate the entire globe as a source of inspiration. Man seems to need to experience loss, suffering and tragedy, perhaps to appreciate the love and spirit that it (life) gives. Therefore, in this paper, the types of dramatic works are taken for analysis, in particular the tragic and the tragedy according to the critical opinion of Plato, and the development of this field in old Greece, with the most famous authors Aeschylus and Sophocles and with Shakespeare in Europe. A special space in this study is occupied by Plato's criticism of Homer, to whom he even asked special questions, because, as is known, Plato in his theory on the state was looking for a literature, an art that would have educational effects on young people ...as well as the theoretical problems that characterize tragedy, the hero and heroism and other feats, and the writing style within the literary narrative.

Tom Lanoye's 'theatre novella' Fort Europa: Hooglied van Versplintering (Fortress Europe: A Canticle of Fragmentation) (2005) features a range of characters who probe Europe's possible future by turning to its past. The Eurocentric heritage narratives on which they draw perpetuate an idea of Europe as a civilization founded on Christianity and on the Enlightenment and racially defined as White. The way in which Lanoye stages these conservative narratives and the way in which he employs irony, however, invites critical reflection, thus calling for a postcolonial perspective on Europe and on European heritage. We approach Fortress Europe as a literary text that reflects on and intervenes in dominant heritage discourses. Through close reading, we investigate how this work stages and engages with European heritage and how it thereby explores specific ideas about European culture and identity. Our focus is on the literary means by which Lanoye reflects on the place of heritage in narratives of Europe. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There is a wide and rich literature about how neoliberalism is promoting the budgetary cuts to science and universities, especially to the critical sectors, such as the social sciences. There is scarce literature on the analysis of the role of sociology in the internal processes and debates on the elaboration of the scientific programs of research. Focusing on the European programs of research, this article analyzes how sociology is leading the new requirements of social impact and co-creation. The result of this analysis shows the great opportunity for sociology to get an unprecedented acknowledgment and valorization from society and all sciences, including those which had not been previously interested in sociology.

35. The Way We Think When Reading Dostoevsky Today.

INTERNATIONAL relations , *POLITICAL philosophy , *CAPITALISM - Abstract
Fyodor M. Dostoevsky's analysis of the theme of Russia–Europe relations, as well as the nature of Russian society, is replete with concept-metaphors like "people," "national principle," "soul," "spirit," and so forth. These concepts and terms are proposed by the writer himself, and the method of research that is based on this terminology has been present in Russian public consciousness for almost a century and a half now. This creates the illusion that these terms can be used to understand the basic differences between Russia and Europe, particularly their fundamentally different property relations and rights. The writer's answer to the question of difference is as follows: Russia's greatness consists in its rejection of European darkness, and its troubles derive from an inconsistency, from the insufficient firmness of that rejection. This article argues that the reason for the long-term "explanatory power" of these terms used by the polemicist Dostoevsky has been determined by the insufficient development of those economic and political relations that objectively exist in Russia. Thus, the Diary of a Writer still resonates with the reader who is gullible but distant from "strong culture" (V. Kelle) and uninclined to reflection, the reader who never abandons the dreams of Russia's "special path" that would allow it, "in one fell swoop," to escape the difficulties of the modern world. But these dreams never come true, and, contrary to the calls for traditionalism, Russia stubbornly tries to follow the same path as the rest of humanity. The longer this process goes on, the more the explanatory power of political polemicist Dostoevsky's concept-metaphors wanes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The underlying dynamics of the various kinds of extremism have, as a common feature, exclusion of the other through hate speech. One of the keys for preventing violent extremism (PVE) is working from the domain of public policy to combat the prejudices and stereotypes that shape discriminatory discourse. This study presents a project of education through literature in the framework of UNESCO's PVE strategy. This programme is constructed around a specific European case, Ustaša violence, which has allowed identification of three relevant areas when implementing the PVE strategy: historical, literary, and dialogic. With a view to favouring human rights, the aim is to design public policies which, with a social impact in the domain of PVE, will consolidate recognition of the equal dignity of human beings.

LITERATURE ,POLAR bear - Abstract
Goethe had established a literary connection between "Europe" and the "Orient" in his West-Östlicher Divan (West-East Divan). His idea of "world literature" can be reframed when it is linked by Homi K. Bhabha with the cosmopolitan: "the study of world literature might be the study of the way in which cultures recognize themselves through their projections of 'otherness.'" The contemporary author Yoko Tawada is from East Asia and has been writing poems, prose, and plays in German and in Japanese. In her playful way of writing, she explores the interrelationship between "Western" and "Eastern" cultures, thereby translating them in cross-border poetics. Using the method of constellation, we examine the question of nation and the postnational in Goethe and Tawada alongside Bhabha, and propose to read Tawada's novel Memoirs of a Polar Bear as "world literature" in light of how the transnational migrants' perspective becomes literally difficult to place.

SPACE law , *PUBLIC spaces , *SOCIAL space , *LAW schools ,EUROPEAN law - Abstract
This article introduces a special issue on 'spaces of the law' in premodern history, with a view to considering areas of engagement and dialogue between law, culture and society. Approaching 'space' as a product of interactions between material, social, cultural and, more recently, emotional elements, it considers broadly the places, environments and discourses inhabited by the law. This issue of the journal seeks to discuss legal arenas (courtrooms, prisons, law schools), but also to situate the law in extra-legal 'spaces', including the media, the public and social spaces, such as the family or the city. How was the law understood and practised in these spaces; how did it exert pressure on them, and vice versa? How were these spaces (material, imagined or symbolic) involved in constructing ideas about the law? This introduction highlights how examining the construction of these spaces can be a way of explaining the law's power, but also its openness to dialogue, interpretation and change.

GERMAN literature ,LITERATURE ,EUROPEAN literature ,SOCIAL marginality ,POLITICAL refugees - Abstract
This contribution engages the analytical frameworks of transnational German Studies, European literature, and world literature to provide a close reading of Abbas Khider's novel Ohrfeige (2016, Engl. A Slap in the Face, 2018) as a simultaneously German, European, and global novel. The essay argues that migration narratives and especially narratives of refuge cannot be contained within one single geographical, national, or linguistic category and therefore require an entangled analytical approach. Written from the simultaneous insider-outsider perspective of an asylum seeker, Ohrfeige offers a powerful critique of Germany and Europe's bureaucratic and social practices of exclusion. The analysis of the novel focuses on questions of mobility, language, and the body, and it demonstrates how Khider challenges and transgresses various types of borders and creates a complex and often blurred map in which personal and global histories of displacement intertwine. With its insistence on global connectedness, the novel also contributes to the growing "worldliness" of German literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

While the European migrant crisis is omnipresent in political and medial discourses, two of its key causes are only seldom addressed by politicians and journalists: mistakes in Europe's domestic, foreign and development policies; and Eurocentric, clichéd or ill-informed press coverage on migration. What impedes such political and medial self-criticism? What happens if politicians or journalists publicly address their own mistakes? Creative culture, in turn, has a long tradition of public self-reflexivity. In the wake of the crisis, many literary texts and films self-critically reflect on the literary and filmic framing of migrants, and challenge the political and medial 'externalization' of the crisis. Building upon these observations, this contribution suggests a new direction for discursive research: the analysis of self-criticism as an ethical challenge for public communication. It highlights research desiderata, discusses the theoretical foundations for comparing self-reflexivity across discourses, and outlines a transdisciplinary terminology and exemplary methods for future research.

Romanian Literature as World Literature, edited by Mircea Martin, Christian Moraru, and Andrei Terian aims to fill a major gap in local literary research and, most importantly, to offer a more exhaustive and diversified view on Romanian literature in relation to the international stage of canonized authors from different cultures. While the virtually disregarded position that Romania takes on this 'stage' could be reckoned as shortcoming, this contribution provides a significant plethora of different views and insights on Romanian literature, as well as its impact in relation to Europe's undying figures of literature.
