Inhalt: Den Ausgangspunkt des Artikels bildet die These, dass zwei bedeutende weibliche Intellektuelle des 20. Jahrhunderts, Milena Jesenská und Alice Rühle-Gerstel, bis heute im Verhältnis zu ihren Leistungen nur bescheidene Anerkennung erfahren haben. Nach der Darstellung der beachtlichen Leistungen der beiden Autorinnen und Aktivistinnen folgt eine Analyse der Rezeption. Insbesondere werden Momente identifiziert, die Fehlinterpretationen verursacht bzw. die Rezeption blockiert haben. Für diese Untersuchung werden theoretische Ansätze aus den Bereichen der politischen und Sprachphilosophie und der politischen Soziologie herangezogen. Neben den geschichtlichen und politischen Ursachen hat auch die asymmetrische Geschlechterordnung wesentlich zu einseitiger und zum Teil verfehlter Rezeption beigetragen. Die Mechanismen, durch die sich üblicherweise der Ruf einer Person bildet und stabilisiert, wie z.B. Präsenz in der Öffentlichkeit und Kontakt mit dem Publikum, waren nach dem frühen Tod beider Frauen nicht wirksam. Der Artikel zeigt die Notwendigkeit einer intensiveren Auseinandersetzung mit dem OEuvre und den Biografien Milena Jesenskás und Alice Rühle-Gerstels - auch innerhalb der feministischen Forschung - und will diesen Diskurs anregen.
Inhalt: The starting point for this article is the supposition that two significant female 20th century intellectuals, Milena Jesenská and Alice Rühle-Gerstel, have so far received only modest recognition for their achievements. The article briefly outlines the remarkable achievements of these two authors and activists and then analyzes the reception of their work. A number of events and processes can be identified which resulted in the misinterpretation and less than satisfactory consideration of their contributions. Theoretical approaches in the fields of political philosophy and political sociology are applied in the course of this analysis. Both the political system and asymmetrical gender power relations contributed in various ways to the false interpretation of the achievements of the two intellectuals. On account of their untimely deaths, both women were unable to build up their academic reputations, for example by means of being visible to and in contact with the public. The article demonstrates the need for further research into the biographies and legacies of Milena Jesenská and Alice Rühle-Gerstel, including from the feminist perspective. It also aspires to stimulate this critical discourse.

Inhalt: The speech act of thanking is one of the fairly neglected areas of research in the Iranian context. The present study seeks to investigate the ways in which this social act is expressed by young male and female EFL learners. To collect the data for this study sixty participants (30 males, 30females) were selected randomly from among the population of BA and MA students of Najafabad university and students learning English in a language institutes located in Najafabad. The major focus of this study was the role that gender and individuals’ level of proficiency might play in the application of thanking strategies. Students were asked to complete a discourse completion test (DCT). They were supposed to read thirteen natural situations, and react to them via expressing gratitude. In order to analyze the utterances of thanking, Cheng's coding scheme was employed. Students' responses were further classified according to the gender and level of proficiency. The results revealed that the females were more cautious in selecting strategies of gratitude. Individuals' level of proficiency was also found to play an important role in the process of strategy selection.

Inhalt: Feminism is a collection of movements which struggles for women's rights. Focusing on gender as a basis of women's sexual oppression, feminist scholarship attempts to establish equal rights for women politically, economically, socially, personally, etc. The Joys of Motherhood highlights Buchi Emecheta's critical view toward colonialism and racism affecting Third world women's lives. Besides this, Emecheta goes further to display African women's invisibility and marginalization-which were out of sight for a long time-in terms of some aspects of Western feminist discourse. Her creative discourse, in this regard, casts further light upon the issue of gender oppression in African feminist study. Hence, this study attempts to examine the way in which Emecheta furthers Western feminist ideology.
Inhalt: Das Ländliche wird vielfach als das Andere zur Stadt konstruiert, mit Entwicklungsrückstand assoziiert oder zum Sehnsuchtsort hochstilisiert. Land_Frauen werden selbst in feministischen Diskursen abgewertet oder ignoriert. Die Dichotomisierung von Stadt und Land, Homogenisierungen und Ideologisierungen von Seiten der Wissenschaft, Politik, Verwaltung und der Medien tragen maßgeblich dazu bei. Mittels der poststrukturalistischen Konzepte der Konstruktion, Dekonstruktion und Rekonstruktion wird in diesem Essay das Wechselverhältnis von Subjekten und Strukturen in ländlichen Regionen beleuchtet und darüber reflektiert, wie ländliche Sozialforschung und rurale Geschlechterforschung zu einem (selbst-) kritischen Diskurs beitragen können.
Inhalt: The rural is often constructed as the opposite to the urban, associated with lagging behind or idolized as a place of nostalgia. Rural women were - even in feminist discourses - devalued or ignored. These tendencies are intensified by science, politics, administration and the media by ideologizations, the homogenizing of society and the dichotomization of the urban and the rural. Using the post-structural approaches of construction, deconstruction and reconstruction, this essay examines closely the reciprocal relationship between rural subjects and structures. It reflects how rural social research and rural gender studies can contribute to a (self-) critical discourse.

Inhalt: Der Aufsatz stellt die Frage, welchen Beitrag der Empowerment- Begriff für die Praxis der Erwachsenenbildung/ Weiterbildung leistet. Dabei wird in erster Linie auf den Empowerment-Begriff eingegangen, der als Aufgabe der Erwachsenenbildung zum Erreichen beruflicher Chancengleichheit von Mann und Frau verstanden werden kann. Darüber hinaus wird der Empowerment-Begriff, der in unterschiedlichen sozialen Bewegungen verwendet wurde, für die Genderdiskussion ausgelegt. Angeregt werden soll eine verstärkte Genderforschung in der Erwachsenenbildung, welche positive Auswirkungen auf die pädagogische Praxis hätte.
