In welcher Weise war Lyrik im Mittelalter und in der Antike Bestandteil von sozialem Handeln? Mit Beiträgen von Harald Haferland, Albrecht Hausmann, Gert Hübner, Beate Kellner, Jan-Dirk Müller, Timo Reuvekamp-Felber und Markus Stock bietet dieser Band einen Überblick über aktuelle Positionen der mediävistischen Lyrikforschung und führt die Debatte über die soziale Funktion und den kommunikativen Ort von Minnesang weiter; der altphilologische Beitrag von Marcus Deufert und der romanistische von Michael Bernsen erweitern die Perspektive auf die grundsätzliche Dimension der in der Germanistik diskutierten Fragen

Dans les récits adaptés de l'ancien français que sont le Strassburger Alexander, l'Eneit et le Liet von Troye, la description est un mode fondamental de l'écriture et de la réécriture. Mise en regard avec les préceptes consignés dans les Arts poétiques, elle apparaît comme l'objet d'heureuses variations par lesquelles les adaptateurs se confrontent aux modèles rhétoriques et tenten t de surpasser leurs prédécesseurs romans. Elle est aussi un lieu où se construit la poétique de chaque texte, fruit du travailde l'écrivain organisant la matière adaptée pour lui donner une forme signifiante, et elle constitue une figure révélatrice de la translation linguistique autant que culturelle accomplie par les adaptateurs. Dans ces textes situés aux origines de l'adaptat ion et du roman en terre allemande, la description est un creuset où se dessinent les différentes figures de l'écrivain : clercpétri de culture rhétorique, adaptateur créatif, médiateur culturel, il est aussi auteur et, peu ou prou, romancier.

The so-called Central Franconian Rhyming Bible ("Mittelfränkische Reimbibel") , although surviving in only a fragmentary condition, is one of the most thematically wide-ranging works of the neglected corpus of Early Middle High German religious poems of the eleventh and twelfth centuries. In its original form the work may have incorporated Christian world-history from the Creation to the Last Judgement. The surviving fragments point to a substantial engagement by a poet from a northwestern dialectal region on the border of High German, Low German, and Middle Dutch with material from the early Old Testament, the Gospels, and the apocryphal and hagiographical legends relating to early Church history. The commentary is the first comprehensive treatment of the theological and literary subject-matter of the work since that of Hugo Busch in 1879/80, and complements the recent linguistic studies of Thomas Klein. The study of sources and analogues conclusively demonstrates that the text - probably of early-twelfth-century date - is a series of homilies, often closely related to German pre-mendicant sermons, and an important witness to the possible existence of a vernacular sermon tradition at an earlier date than existing manuscript evidence suggests. It also includes features of central importance for knowledge of the text tradition of seminal Christian apocrypha. The substantial introduction and conclusion include a comparison with the Old English homiletic corpus of Ælfric of Eynsham. The commentary is also accompanied by the Middle High German text from Friedrich Maurer's standard edition, and a straightforward prose translation into English intended to make the neglected work accessible to medievalists of different disciplines.

Medieval judicial ordeals, especially trial by fire or battle, conjure up vivid pictures in the modern imagination. Yet popular perceptions of the Middle Ages leave the reader without a context in which to understand these most drastic of medieval judicial remedies. This book analyzes literary texts that provide some of the most vivid and detailed accounts of the medieval ordeal: the dramatic treason trials in late medieval Charlemagne epics. The two epics chosen - Stricker's 'Karl der Groe' and the 'Karlmeinet' - treat trial by battle as the living legal reality it was in those times, yet display very different attitudes toward feud and punishment in their respective (13th- and 14th-century) societies. Gottfried's 'Tristan' contains an ordeal by battle, of which the author approves, and an ordeal by fire, of which he does not, reflecting a common position of the intelligentsia of the time. Well after the condemnation of ordeals by the Fourth Lateran Council, the Kunigunde legend preserves the ordeal by fire much as it was portrayed in the mid-12th-century Richardis legend, while Stricker's short secular burlesque 'The Hot Iron,' written in the mid 13th century, makes sport of this formerly serious legal proceeding, reflecting its sudden abandonment as a legal proof following the council's decision. The study brings extensive background material in legal and cultural history to bear on literary texts, helping both medievalists and general readers understand the function of the ordeal in the texts as well as in the larger society for whom these works were written. Vickie L. Ziegler is professor of German and Director of the Center for Medieval Studies at the Pennsylvania State University.

Schwankromane wie etwa der "Pfaffe Amîs", der "Kalenberger" oder "Neithart Fuchs" standen lange Zeit im Schatten des bekannteren Eulenspiegel-Romans. Dabei prägten die übrigen Romane deutlich die Erscheinungsform auch dieses Werks der Weltliteratur und somit auch die faszinierende, zum Teil widersprüchlich wirkende Zeichnung seines Helden. Der Band zeigt, wie im 15. und 16. Jahrhundert, ausgehend von älteren Stoffen, mit den neuen Mitteln der typographischen Revolution eine literarische Gattung ins Leben gerufen wurde, die sich als Unterhaltungsliteratur an ein breiteres anonymes Publikum richtete. Die Untersuchung ermöglicht Einblicke sowohl in die Mentalitätsgeschichte einer Zeit, deren Ängste und Wünsche sich paradigmatisch in der Symbolfigur des Narren spiegeln, als auch in erste unternehmerische Strategien, Bücher am Markt zu etablieren, indem sie sich an anderen erfolgreichen Titeln orientieren.
