Book SynopsisDie Uraufführung von John Osbornes Look Back in Anger (1956) ging als tiefgreifende Zäsur in die britische Theater- und Dramengeschichte ein. Der Autor greift diesen vermeintlich dichotomen Übergang von drawing-room comedies der Vor- und Nachkriegszeit zu kitchen-sink dramas auf und untersucht anhand thematisch vielfältiger (dramatischer) Texte nach 1956 die individuellen Ich/Welt-Interaktionen der jugendlichen Protagonist*innen. Mit Hilfe eines umfassenden Methodengerüsts, das Dramen-, Bildungs- und Subjektivierungstheorien vereint, treten in den Textanalysen mannigfaltige, jugendliche Figurenkonzeptionen hervor, die sich vor allem sichtbar emotional in facettenreichen Entfaltungs- und Gestaltungsräumen positionieren. Das eigentliche Novum ab 1956 äußert sich so in Form einer expliziten Thematisierung von Selbst- und Fremdverhältnissen in jugendlichen Figurennetzen.

Book SynopsisDer Band untersucht die Wirkung des Lesezirkels auf Lernerautonomie im Englischunterricht. Mithilfe einer Fallstudie zeigt die Autorin auf, dass der Lesezirkel Binnendifferenzierung im Englischunterricht mit Literatur ermöglicht und damit eine Antwort auf die gegenwärtige Herausforderung der wachsenden Heterogenität der Schülerschaft im kompetenzorientierten Englischunterricht bietet. Die Sicht der Lernenden schlüsselt autonomieförderliche Lernbedingungen auf. Entscheidungsfreiheit, Kooperation und regelmäßige individuelle und gemeinsame Reflexionsphasen sind die Bausteine einer kooperativ-binnendifferenzierenden Praxis, die die persönliche Interaktion zwischen Lernenden und literarischen Texten in den Mittelpunkt rückt und Lernerautonomie freisetzt.
