Ute von Bloh – författare

The volume assembles all the studies on Minnesang published so far by Jan-Dirk Müuuml;ller. Their common denominator is the combination of literary theory and the historical perspective on Minnesang, with constant reference to specific examples. The impulses emanating from New Philology prove to have a genuine bearing on Minnesang by virtue of the emphasis on the intrinsic logic of different versions. Other approaches shown to provide valuable insights on this body of literature are the social history perspective, discourse analysis, and aspects of the deconstructivist paradigm.
