Universities are among the most dynamic contemporary arenas for intercultural contact, and one of the most interesting phenomena for social interaction studies, both conceptually and empirically. There are around four million people worldwide studying abroad, with numbers growing. These international student sojourns are, first and foremost, social experiences, with social interaction being both a success factor for and outcome of intercultural transition. But what's it like being an 'international' student? How is the experience different from studying 'at home', and what might make it a success, or otherwise?

Sensuality and abjection in the sculpture of an artist who expressed the female experience unapologetically and presciently
This catalog considers the pivotal turning points in the Polish artist Alina Szapocznikow's (1926-73) life and career from the late 1950s to the early 1970s. It considers her experimental approach to materials, ranging from plaster and bronze to her groundbreaking use of polyester resin in the mid-1960s.
Szapocznikow's work maps her engagement with her own body as it transformed from healthy to ailing. Her art amounts to a powerful meditation on what she once described as "a fleeting instant, a trivial instant ... our terrestrial passage." These sensual casts and sculptures of body parts are ecstatic and abject, playful and disturbing, direct and elusive. Unapologetic in their expression of the female experience, including that of terminal illness, Szapocznikow's works remain hauntingly relevant today. Featuring new photography, the publication aims to render the tactility and spatiality of these works in brilliant new detail.

This book investigates the syntax of Romanian ditransitives building on new experimental data with a view to enable a more accurate understanding of these constructions regarding their underlying configuration(s), the structural import of Differential Object Marking or Clitic Doubling among others.
One first attempt is to explain the (relatively) free word-order manifested by the two internal arguments, and their symmetrical potential for anaphor and possessor binding. Evidence is provided as to the relative hierarchical order of the two object DPs, with the direct object as the lower one.
The featural make-up of the two objects also proves crucial in disentangling the various experimentally uncovered aspects regarding their interaction e.g., differentially marked direct objects bear a [Person] feature and compete with the indirect object in valuing the person feature of the applicative. The feature specification is further refined function of the presence of clitic doubling or the lack thereof.
The experimental insights we gain into the syntax of Romanian ditransitives help us integrate them with their counterparts in Romance thereby contributing to a better cross-linguistic understanding of these constructions.

The life and work of a Polish sculptor fascinated by the human body
The Polish sculptor Alina Szapocznikow (1926-1973) has been the subject of renewed and intense interest over the past few years, with much anticipation of her major touring U.S. survey in 2012/2013. Szapocznikow's sculptural interpretations of the human body, created from the 1960s onwards in both Communist Poland and postwar Paris, are often associated with the artist's experience as a survivor of the Holocaust, but also anticipate more recent preoccupations with "the abject" in their often dark intimations of dismemberment, decay and mutation. This volume, published for an exhibition at the Kunstparterre in Munich, includes drawings and sculptures from the breadth of Szapocznikow's tragically brief career, as well as documentation of the exhibition, statements and a letter by the artist, and an extensive timeline of her life and work.
