How much German in German Studies
When the Son Is Older than the Father
Dominik Graf's Wispern im Berg der Dinge (A Whispering in the Mountain of Things) was the second film televised in the twelve-part Denk ich an Deutschland-documentary series launched on the eve of Germany's eighth Day of Unity (October 1998).

Conspicuously absent in the epic are the positive or worthy acts usually associated with the Arthurian court: other than Gawein's rescue of the abducted queen and Arthur's court judgment allocating property equally to the Graf von Dorn's two daughters, but only after the inconclusive Gawein-Iwein battle, ther…
Love and Marriage
Most conversation courses in a foreign language, centered on reading selections and speeches prepared by students, lack animated discussions. In order to ensure personal involvement in and eagerness for verbal communication, the German intermediate conversational course at Clemson University centers on love, marriage, and family life.
