This compendium is the first work to provide a complete and
methodologically reflected documentation of the maxims and sayings
in medieval German Arthurian, Grail and Tristan romances. A
differentiated listing collects the maxims in 21 romances from a
span of some 100 years (approx. 1170a '1300), reflects their
narrative context, gives a semantic explanation via a paraphrase,
locates them in the aphoristic network of the relevant text by
pointing to parallel passages, and using citations from the Bible
and medieval literature in Latin and the vernacular(s) locates them
in the relevant tradition of their usage.
