In abgewichener Nacht frühe gegen 5 Uhr haben die Franz[osen] von Göttingen Besitz genommen. Es sollen 250 Mann seyn, welche d[en] H[err]n Major van der Märsch, ein feiner Mann, zum commandanten haben. In dem gestrigen Scharmützel ist d[em] H[err]n Maj[or] Friedrichs das Pferd todt geschossen, und er gefangen. Abends gegen 7 Uhr sind die Herren Grafen von Schwerin und v[on] Münch, desg[leichen] verschiedene andere Bursche, unter welchen d[er] H[err] von Biederitz, von dem Jacobithurm durch Franz[osen] herunter geholet, jedoch nach Ankunft des Commandanten auf dem Jacobi-Kirchhofe sogleich wieder lossgelassen worden. Der Commandant hat zu d[em] H[err]n S[yndicus] Willig gesagt, uns sey zur Besatzung ein regiment Croaten und Panduren bestimmet. Andreas Georg Wähner, Tagebuch vom 4. August 1760 Das lange Zeit als verschollen gegoltene Tagebuch des Göttinger Professors Andreas Georg Wähner ist die umfangreichste Göttinger Quelle dieses Genres aus der Zeit des Siebenjährigen Krieges, die sich erhalten hat und im Stadtarchiv (wieder) verfügbar ist. Meist nüchtern, gelegentlich mit einem bissigen Kommentar versehen, protokolliert Wähner alle Ereignisse, von denen er erfährt, und nennt jedes Mal seine Quelle. Die Bedeutung des Tagebuchs zeigt sich gerade in den wiedergegebenen und bisher nicht beachteten Gerüchten, Briefen und Zeitungsartikeln, die den Blick weit über Göttingen hinaus auf die Weltgeschichte lenken. Dem heutigen Forscher wird hier Gelegenheit gegeben, sich über die Göttinger Stadt- und Universitätsgeschichte und die Geschichte des Siebenjährigen Krieges, besonders aber auch über die Kommunikationsgeschichte und Militärgeschichte dieser Zeit zu informieren. Die Hintergründe der geschilderten Ereignisse werden in den zahlreichen Anmerkungen erläutert und ein umfangreiches Register, im Fall des Personenregisters mit kurzen biographischen Angaben angereichert, rundet die Edition ab. Das Werk ist eine Fundgrube für die Forschung zum 18. Jahrhundert, vor allem aber bietet es für jeden Interessierten einen schnellen Zugang zu einer Fülle von Informationen.

The Middle English poet Thomas Hoccleve, known particularly for his entertainingly biographical verse describing life as a Privy Seal clerk in early fifteenth-century Westminster, is now recognised as a key figure in the literature of later medieval England. This volume, the first collection of essays devoted to Hoccleve since 1996, both confirms his importance in shaping the English poetic tradition after Chaucer's death and demonstrates the depth of ongoing critical interest in Hoccleve's work in its own right. Chapters explore the idiosyncratic forms of his two principle works, The Regiment of Princes and Series, as well as Hoccleve's distinctive imagery of moving feet, of swelling and bursting bodies, and of the actions of personified Death. Other essays consider the presence of the figure of the woman reader, the part played by the codex in posthumous literary sanctification, the links between Hoccleve's formulary of model letters and documents and his own verse, and the mutually informing relations of Hoccleve's minor poetry and major works. They are preceded by a substantial introduction, considering contemporary responses to Hoccleve in the light of current trends in literary criticism and surveying the reception of his works between the fifteenth and nineteenth centuries.
