    Introduction -- Female suffering and rape in Hartmann von Aue's Erec -- Nibelungenlied: a male poet reveals his fear of women -- Date rape, or the breaking of a contract? the problematic case of Mauritius von Craûn: modern legal issues in a medieval context -- Rape in medieval romance, with a focus on Heinrich von Dem Türlin's Diu crône -- Rape in medieval Latin and middle high German poetry: with some reflections on Walther von der Vogelweide and the Carmina burana -- Rape in late medieval mæren -- Rape in the world of the peasant class in the late Middle Ages: Heinrich Wittenwiler's Ring -- Apollonius of Tyre, Mai und Beaflor, and other late medieval narratives: the suffering of young women within their families -- Violence against women in late medieval popular song poetry and heroic epic songs -- The critical treatment of rape in sixteenth century Schwänke literature: the case of Hans Wilhelm Kirchhoff's Wendunmuth -- Epilogue

    Contrary to modern assumptions, sexual violence and rape were treated as severe crimes in the Middle Ages. This book examines the testimony in medieval and early modern German literature and traces the discourse on both aspects from the twelfth through the sixteenth centuries. Most comments about rape come from male writers, and medieval literature contains numerous examples of rape scenes which are mostly viewed highly critically. Previous studies on this topic have focused on English, French, and Italian literature, whereas here the emphasis rests on German examples

    Hans Folz -- Folz and printing -- Body and soul -- Mary and Folz's transgressive woman -- Folz and anti-jewishness -- Popular medicine -- Concluding notes: Folz and his world

    By integrating the different themes across Folz's oeuvre in all its profusion and variety, Huey offers new insights as to the interaction of these themes and to the character of the poet's work overall. She shows that ultimately Folz is concerned with the circulation of knowledge and power, correct and incorrect behavior, and above all, with finding order. Huey presents Folz's mise en page, revealed in extant prints from his own press, in the only complete collection of front-page images of these prints

    The volume provides an overview of the origins of early medieval aristocratic literature. Although there are regional, linguistic and formal differences, one can observe a number of similarities. Oral literature disseminates a range of themes that are shared by narratives in most parts of the continent. The authors address these similarities in Roman, Nordic, Anglo-Saxon and Germanic literature and use different methodologies to explain them
