Publisher's Synopsis
For nearly forty years, the theory and practice of medieval poetics have been a central plank of Fritz Peter Knapp's research activity. The present Festschrift celebrating the jubilarian's 65th birthday brings together new studies by renowned scholars inside and outside Germany who carry forward the multi-layered discussion of poetological discourse and the effects of poetological concerns in medieval German and European sacred and secular literature which Fritz Peter Knapp has done so much to advance.
