Item Didactique littéraire(Wydawcnictwo Naukowe UAM, 1990) Diaz, OlgaLanguage and literature have always shown a fundamental unity in what we could call the art of writing. Formally, the establishment of any literary praxis should therefore lead towards an improvement in the construction of language. In fact, we cannot separate linguistic valorisation from the cultural process in reading and writing which are characterised by cognition and creativity. And that is why we are talking at the same time about the study of texts and the study of writing.Item Didaktisierung von textlinguistischen Mitteln zur Entwicklung des Verstehenden Lesens von Fachtexten(Wydawcnictwo Naukowe UAM, 1990) VAPORDSHIEV, VesselinThe author’s starting point is the communicative concept of text. The communicative and pragmatic aspects of text and its specific features are taken into account. By means of textual analysis a high degree of coherence and marked relation among the parts of scientific texts has been revealed, as well as their logico-semantic consistency. A number of methods have been proposed for utilizing these specificities.Item Zum Hör-Seh-Verstehen von Video- und Fernsehsprach- programmen(Wydawcnictwo Naukowe UAM, 1990) LÖSCHMANN, MarianneThe potential of sound films for foreign language learning and teaching can be fully realised only through modern technological developments.

The classroom setting, however, makes for artificial functioning of both learners and teachers. Audiovisual materials, then, will be of especially great importance at this juncture. The author contends^that from the psychological viewpoint comicality and humour tend to promote linguistic activity.

This presupposes instruction that is based on communication, creativity, Landeskunde and on the use of technical equipment. Special attention is paid to the problem of how reality is reflected in literature, and to the discrepancy between saying and meaning on the one hand and reception on the other. Two texts serve as an illustration of exercises for text reception, text reproduction and text production.Item Der Text im Mittelpunkt des Fremdsprachenunterrichts(Wydawcnictwo Naukowe UAM, 1990) KOZŁOWSKI, AleksanderThe paper presents an analysis of the importance and function of text in foreign language teaching. Two types of texts are distinguished: primary (original) and secondary (contrived) ones. The use of text in teaching is recommended mainly for two reasons: communicative-linguistic and psycholinguistic-pedagogical. In teaching texts can be used to establish a basis for the development of receptive competence (e.g. reading), or, to provide direct impulse for creating verbal statement (e.g. interpretation). Both functions are dealt with in detail. A text can stimulate language progress at many levels of which the most important ones are linguistic and communicative, as well as knowledge of the country and its people. In conclusion it is contended that nowadays foreign language teaching without the use of text is not possible.Item Kognitives Training von Fremdsprachlernstrategien — Begründung eines neuen Forschungsansatzes der Fremdsprachlernpsychologie(Wydawcnictwo Naukowe UAM, 1990) Esser, UlrichOn the basis of empirical evidence, a cognitive-psychological approach is introduced which aims at an optimization of foreign language learning and teaching.
