Mertens lesen
English summary: German sermons of the Middle Ages, the Arthurian and Grail epics, and minstrel poetry are among Volker Mertens' main foci of research, together with Thomas Mann and musical theater. This volume, published in honor of his 75th birthday and containing contributions by colleagues and friends, provides an overview of his lasting influence in the field of historical literary studies. German text. German description: Die deutsche Predigt des Mittelalters, der Artus- und Gralsepik und der Minnesang gehoren ebenso wie Thomas Mann und das Musiktheater zu Volker Mertens Schwerpunkten.

Diz vliegende bîspel
The volume explores the theme of ambiguity in medieval and early modern literature in essays honoring the life and work of Arthur Groos, Avalon Foundation Professor in the Humanities at Cornell University, USA, emeritus. The famous expression diz vliegende bîspel from Wolfram von Eschenbach's Parzival is its watchword. In the poem the black and white plumage of the magpie represents the characteristic complexity, ambiguity, and ambivalence of the romance. Removed from its historical context the expression is also a figure of Arthur Groos's wide-ranging intellectual flight. In addition to his work on medieval German verse narrative, he has made important contributions to courtly love poetry, medieval and early modern scientific literature, early modern German literature in general, and especially to opera.

The Jewish-Christian Encounter in Medieval Preaching
This book explores the complexity of preaching as a phenomenon in the medieval Jewish-Christian encounter. This was not only an "encounter" as physical meeting or confrontation (such as the forced attendance of Jews at Christian sermons that took place across Europe), but also an "imaginary" or theological encounter in which Jews remained a figure from a distant constructed time and place who served only to underline and verify Christian teachings. Contributors also explore the Jewish response to Christian anti-Jewish preaching in their own preaching and religious instruction.
