Projektion - Reflexion - Ferne - Raumliche Vorstellungen Und Denkfiguren Im Mittelalter (German, Hardcover)

Spatial thinking plays an important role in medieval literature and culture. This is not only demonstrated by the large world maps and theological models of the cosmos in medieval times, but also by the spatial structure and motifs of the narrative literature. The articles in this volume explore how spaces are described in narratives from the 9th to the 16th century - e.g. the world model in the Evangelienbuch of Otfrid of Weissenburg and the spatial semantics in the courtly romances and the landscape descriptions in Provenal poetry. The book sketches a fascinating panorama of imaginary spaces in the Middle Ages.
