The study analyzes strategies serving the constitution of meaning
in AReinfried and ApolloniusA, proceeding from there to propose a
new definition of what it is that significantly distinguishes
romances on courtly love (Minne) and adventure from other verse
romances. As specific expressions of aristocratic identity and
existence, courtly love and knightly adventure are dovetailed with
the topic of bridal wooing to reflect the paradigmatic status of
the theme of power legitimization and the visibly exemplary nature
of rulers and their life-styles against the background of the
history of Christian redemption. As AApolloniusA was designed as a
riposte to AReinfriedA, the two romances are clearly seen to stand
in a discourse relationship to each other.
