Analysis of literature as critically reflected practice; interpretation/understanding of literature as well-grounded activity.

Among the “old stories” that have been preserved for us from the German Middle Ages, the Nibelungenlied fascinates like hardly any other legend for centuries and has a permanent place in cultural memory and literary life. We want to read it in the seminar and try to get to the bottom of the fascination that the story of love, betrayal and revenge triggers to this day. We will shed light on the work from various interpretative perspectives, trace the sometimes dark roots of the Nibelungen saga and also deal with its eventful history of reception in the Middle Ages and modern times. Last but not least, the handwritten testimonies should be given due consideration and the opportunity should therefore be given to gain insight into the original transmission conditions of medieval texts (Material Philology using the example of the Manessian song manuscript).
