In this study, I demonstrate that social hierarchy and power are important aspects for understanding the use of epistemic and evidential stance verbs in computer-mediated communication.

The members of the community are d
Air pollution is a serious problem today, both from an environmental and from a health point of view. Especially in cities, particles smaller than 10 µm in aerodynamic diameter (PM10) can reach high concentrations. These particles are dangerous, even at low concentrations, since they are small enough to enter the lungs. In order to estimate the concentration of air pollutants, different measureme

This thesis explores the currently most common ways of exegetically approaching the so called Imprecatory psalms, based on post WWII commentaries regarding Ps 58, 109, 137 and 139 – all known for their harsh language. Imprecations are seldom included in modern Christian worship – exemplified by (for example) the Roman-Catholic prayer book Liturgy of the Hours (1970) where several psalms have been
