Inhalt: The seminar will address areas of the grammar of written English that go beyond the simple clause but are relevant for advanced learners of English: complex noun phrases (including finite and non-finite postmodification, relative clauses), finite and non-finite complement clauses (that- and wh-clauses, non-finite complements such as infinitive and ing-structures), verbless clauses, adverbial clauses (of different semantic types), and reporting the speech of others. These structures will not be treated as ends in themselves, but we will adopt a functional perspective that is assumed to be helpful in acquiring a writing competence informed by rhetorical and stylistic principles.
