Language Through Culture - Culture Through Language with Alma Karlin

Abstract

The article describes the preparation and realization of an excursion to a bilaterally organized exhibition about the Slovenian globetrotter Alma Karlin. She went on a world trip at the beginning of the 20th century. Long forgotten, her cultural-historical significance is being rediscovered in the 21st century. New research results are didactically used in connection with highly topical socio-political issues. In a cross-course setting, cultural and language teaching are considered holistically. Individual and cooperative phases alternate and complement each other.
