Der Band basiert auf einer Tagung, die die Internationale Andreas Gryphius-Gesellschaft in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Department Germanistik und Komparatistik der Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg vom 20. bis 23. September 2005 in Erlangen durchgeführt hat. Angeregt durch neue kulturwissenschaftliche Fragestellungen, nehmen die Beiträge aus unterschiedlichen Disziplinen die Ästhetik komisierender Verfahren in Literatur und Bild des 17. Jahrhunderts in den Blick. Sie beschäftigen sich mit semiotischen und materialen Erscheinungsformen des Komischen in unterschiedlichen Textsorten, mit poetischen und poetologischen Fragestellungen und diskutieren Probleme der Inszenierung des Komischen sowie Möglichkeiten seiner Grenzbestimmung. Immer wieder gerät dabei die virulente Frage nach der Rezeption des Komischen ins Zentrum des Interesses.

Sexuality is one of the most influential factors in human life. The responses to and reflections upon the manifestations of sexuality provide fascinating insights into fundamental aspects of medieval and early-modern culture. This interdisciplinary volume with articles written by social historians, literary historians, musicologists, art historians, and historians of religion and mental-ity demonstrates how fruitful collaborative efforts can be in the exploration of essential features of human society. Practically every aspect of culture both in the Middle Ages and the early modern age was influenced and determined by sexuality, which hardly ever surfaces simply characterized by prurient interests. The treatment of sexuality in literature, chronicles, music, art, legal documents, and in scientific texts illuminates central concerns, anxieties, tensions, needs, fears, and problems in human society throughout times.
