Notes: Die Gutachterin hat zu meiner Facharbeit geschrieben, dass die Arbeit sich "vor allem durch eine überzeugende Konzeption und präzise Durchführung, eine fundierte Kenntnis der Primärtexte sowie der relevanten Sekundärliteratur sowie eine überzeugende Eigenreflexion und sprachlichen Darstellung" auszeichnet und dass die Untersuchung "auf einer weit über das für eine Facharbeit Erwartbare hinausgehenden Textkenntnis und Literaturrecherche" basiert.
