In contrast to the vernacular literary traditions of France, Italy
and England, comic tales in verse flourished in late medieval
Germany, providing bawdy entertainment for larger audiences of
public recitals as well as for smaller numbers of individual
readers. In a sustained close analysis, Sebastian Coxon explores
both the narrative design and fundamental thematic preoccupations
of these short texts. A distinctively performative tradition of
pre-modern narrative literature emerges which invites its
recipients to think, learn and above all to laugh in a number of
different ways.
