Ebook: Geistliches in weltlicher und Weltliches in geistlicher Literatur des Mittelalters

The 16 articles in this volume examine interlinkings between religious and secular diction and thought-forms in the literature of the Middle Ages and the Reformation. Though wide-ranging in their methodologies they are united in the sometimes unexpected historical and systematic commonalities they detect in texts of different genres and periods. Together they take up a familiar but hitherto inadequately clarified problem and place it in the context of ongoing debate on the appropriate understanding of medieval literature and culture.
