Wildes Erzählen - Erzählen vom Wilden: 'Parzival', 'Busant' und 'Wolfdietrich D'

Using the methodology of cultural criticism as applied to medieval studies, this work examines different manifestations of wildness in medieval literary narratives, with an equal emphasis on issues of poetology and literary anthropology. Close textual readings newly illuminate the complex connections between self-understanding and representations of the wild.
