Ritual und Inszenierung
Der Band gibt Vorträge einer Kölner Tagung zum geistlichen und weltlichen Drama im Europa des Mittelalters und der Frühen Neuzeit wieder, insbesondere zu Spielen lateinischer, mittelhochdeutscher, frühneuhochdeutscher, mittelniederdeutscher und mittelniederländischer Sprache. Die Beiträge widmen sich Formen der Ritualisierung im vormodernen Drama, untersuchen Nähe und Distanz zur Liturgie und zur ebenso kulturell wie liturgisch begründeten (Jahres-)Zeitenfolge, beobachten die Inszenierung der Spiele in ihren ambivalenten Versuchen, an die Verantwortung des Einzelnen vor einer letzten Instanz zu appellieren, Emotionen zu wecken und zu instrumentalisieren. Sie diskutieren somit die Ausdifferenzierung von Formen früher Theatralität und nehmen damit eine überfällige, von Rainer Warning angestoßene literaturtheoretische Diskussion auf: Genese, Funktion und Struktur des mittelalterlichen Spiels.
The St Gall Passion Play
The early-fourteenth-century St Gall Passion Play comes from the Central Rhineland. Unfortunately its music (over one hundred Latin and German chants) is given in the manuscript only as brief incipits, without any musical notation. This interdisciplinary study reconstructs the musical stratum of the play. It is the first full-scale musical reconstruction of a large German Passion play in recent times, using the latest available scholarly data in drama, liturgy and music. It draws conclusions about performance practice and forces, and offers a sound basis for an authentic performance of the play. The study applies musical and liturgical data to the problem of localizing the play (the first ti...
Arbeiten an der Identität
Dieses Buch befasst sich mit der spirituellen Identität der Nonnen des niedersächsischen Frauenklosters Heiningen in der Mitte des 15. Jahrhunderts. Es stützt sich auf eine Gruppe von Handschriften, die im Zuge der windesheimischen Reformierung des Chorfrauenstifts entstanden und die textlichen Grundlagen der Seelsorge und die neuen liturgischen Gewohnheiten festhielten. Im Zentrum steht einerseits das Kompendium eines Seelsorgers, das in der fruchtbaren Spannung zwischen der Sicherung von Grundlagen und dem Bemühen um ihre Aktivierung steht, um das Vermitteln der Texte, das sie erst zu lebendigem Besitz und integralem Bestandteil der „forma vivendi“ werden lässt. Der Codex repräse...
Eloquent Bodies
A radical reassessment of the role of movement, emotion, and the viewing experience in Gothic sculpture Gothic cathedrals in northern Europe dazzle visitors with arrays of sculpted saints, angels, and noble patrons adorning their portals and interiors. In this highly original and erudite volume, Jacqueline E. Jung explores how medieval sculptors used a form of bodily poetics—involving facial expression, gesture, stance, and torsion—to create meanings beyond conventional iconography and to subtly manipulate spatial dynamics, forging connections between the sculptures and beholders. Filled with more than 500 images that capture the suppleness and dynamism of cathedral sculpture, often through multiple angles, Eloquent Bodies demonstrates how viewers confronted and, in turn, were addressed by sculptures at major cathedrals in France and Germany, from Chartres and Reims to Strasbourg, Bamberg, Magdeburg, and Naumburg. Shedding new light on the charismatic and kinetic qualities of Gothic sculpture, this book also illuminates the ways artistic ingenuity and technical skill converged to enliven sacred spaces.
Fifteenth-Century Studies
Articles on drama, letter-writing, Arthurian romances, translation, mythology and folklore, print media, and Pizan, Sachs, Schedel, Chartier, and Henryson. The fifteenth century defies consensus on fundamental issues; most scholars agree, however, that this period outgrew the Middle Ages, that it was a time of transition and a passage to modern times. Founded in 1977 as the publication organ for the Fifteenth-Century Symposia, Fifteenth-Century Studies offers essays on diverse aspects of the fifteenth century, including liberal and fine arts, historiography, medicine, and religion. Following the standard opening article on the current state of fifteenth-century drama research, volume 33 offe...
Women, Medicine and Theatre 1500–1750
Well illustrated, accessibly presented, and drawing on a comprehensive range of historical documents, including British, German and other European images, and literary as well as non-literary texts (many previously unconsidered in this context), this study offers the first interdisciplinary gendered assessment of early modern performing itinerant healers (mountebanks, charlatans and quacksalvers). As Katritzky shows, quacks, male or female, combined, in widely varying proportions, three elements: the medical, the itinerant and the theatrical. Above all, they were performers. They used theatricality, in its widest possible sense, to attract customers and to promote and advertise their pharmac...
Medieval German Drama
"Noteworthy artistic achievements in their own right, these four plays are striking examples of four distinctive genres of early European drama. The Easter Play is a surprisingly eclectic composition that combines equal measures of piety, satire, and sheer"

Tallis and Byrd's Cantiones Sacrae (1575)
What did Tallis and Byrd mean to convey by their use of the word "argument" in their title, Cantiones, quae ab argumento sacrae vocantur? Thomas Tallis's and William Byrd's Cantiones, quae ab argumento sacrae vocantur (songs, which by their argument are called sacred) of 1575 is one of the first sets of sacred music printed in England. It is widely recognized as a landmark achievement in English music history. Dedicated to Queen Elizabeth I to mark the seventeenth year of her reign, each composer contributed seventeen motets to the collection, which proved to be greatly influential among the era's composers. But what did Tallis and Byrd mean to convey by their use of the word "argument" in t...
