Also he joined the lama on his Spiritual Journey maybe for his own proposes but this is not explicitly said.</div> Melanie https://wiki.angl-am.uni-oldenburg.de/index.php/2009-10_AM_Fictions_of_India_-_Expert_Group_on_Plot_Structures 2009-10 AM Fictions of India - Expert Group on Plot Structures 2010-01-27T21:17:26Z <p>Melanie: </p> <hr /> <div>==Expert Group on Plot Structures==<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Is the quest of the Red Bull the trigger for his other quests?'''<br /> <br /> The quest of the Red Bull can be seen as a trigger for his further quests.

Is it Indian and English or any of his roles he slips into? Does he just put on a mask, but still be Kim? Or does he really live this role?'''<br /> <br /> Kim is neither fully English nor fully Indian. He grew up in India, he is familiar with the living in the country but he is also considered English. One has to decide whether he is more or less Indian or rather English. It always depends on the situation.<br /> The roles he can slip into are just roles they are not a full part of Kim. Anyway which disguise he has inside it is still Kim.<br /> <br /> <br /> '''What is Kim’s identity? Is he an impossible character because he has so many talents?'''<br /> <br /> Kim knows how to use his talents in a smart way. But one has to keep in mind that his talents are supported by every encounter with new people, for example people of the Great Game. So, one can argue if his talents have been evolved to a near perfect level, it makes Kim seem like an impossible character. He has been formed by people like Lurgin Sahib or his education at St. Xavier’s.</div> Melanie https://wiki.angl-am.uni-oldenburg.de/index.php/2008-09_AM_Language_Acquisition 2008-09 AM Language Acquisition 2008-10-30T15:16:16Z <p>Melanie: /* Nov 18th */</p> <hr /> <div>===Available for Presentation===<br /> <br /> ==Nov 11th==<br /> <br /> *Language Discrimination, Guasti 23-30, 1 group = 2 presenters max.<br /> :*Names:<br /> <br /> *The Source of Discrimination, Guasti 30-40, 1 group = 3 presenters max.<br /> :*Names:<br /> <br /> *Learning Phonemic Contrasts 1, Guasti 40-46, 1 group = 2 presenters max.<br /> :*Names:<br /> <br /> *Learning Phonemic Contrasts 2, Guasti 47-54, 1 group = 2 presenters max.<br /> :*Names:<br /> <br /> ==Nov 18th==<br /> <br /> *Word Identification 1, Guasti 55-65 inclusive, 1 group = 3 presenters max.<br /> :*Names:<br /> *Word Identification 2, Guasti 66-74, 1 group = 3 presenters max.<br /> :*Names:<br /> *Word Meaning, Guasti 74-80, 1 group = 2 presenters max.<br /> :*Names: Karolin Dettmer and Melanie Niepel<br /> *Acquisition of Verbs, Guasti 80-90, 1 group, = 3 presenters max.<br /> :*Names:<br /> *Bootstrapping of Syntax, Guasti 90-99, 1 group = 3 presenters max.<br /> :*Names:</div> Melanie
