Mittelalterliche Literatur und Kunst im Spannungsfeld von Hof und Kloster: Ergebnisse der Berliner Tagung, 9.-11. Oktober 1997

The medieval court, whether that of a king, prince or bishop, and the monastery are focal points for the production of vernacular literature in the period 800-1500. The studies collected here discuss a wide range of topics, drawing also on Latin literature and the history of art, and present a conspectus of the most influential approaches to the study of medieval literature in German.
