  • Legitimating Limburgish: the Reproduction of Heritage
    4 Legitimating Limburgish The Reproduction of Heritage Diana M. J. Camps1 1. Introduction A 2016 column in a Dutch regional newspaper, De Limburger, touted the following heading: “Limburgse taal: de verwarring blijft” (Limburgian lan- guage: the confusion remains). In its introduction, Geertjan Claessens, a jour- nalist, points to the fact that it has been nearly 20 years since Limburgish was recognized as a regional language under the European Charter for Regional and Minority Languages (ECRML2) but asks “which language is recog- nized?” (Claessens 2016). In 1997, Limburgish, formerly considered a dialect of Dutch, was acknowledged by local and national authorities as a regional language under the ECRML. In his editorial, Claessens points to the multi- plicity of dialects that constitute Limburgish as a regional language, each with their own unique elements and nuances. As such, expert opinions about how to conceptualize Limburgish as a “language” still widely differ, and nego- tiations and tensions about how to write Limburgish continue. Despite the creation of an official spelling standard in 2003, Claessens asserts that these discussions about spelling norms will not see an end any time soon. Spelling was also highlighted in a Limburgian classroom I observed in 2014, where nearly a dozen adult students focused on the reading and writ- ing of their local Limburgian dialect. Rather than framing spelling as a potential point of debate, however, the teacher presents an instrumentalist view, stating: dit is een spelling en dat is als ‘t ware een technisch apparaat om de klanken zichtbaar te maken want dao geit ‘t om [. .]en dat is ‘T grote idee van de spelling [pause] de herkenbaarheid this is a spelling and that is in essence a technical device to make the sounds visible because that is what it is about [.

    The crests and coats-of-arms in the Grosse Heidelberger (Manesse) and Weingartener Liederhandschriften M A N Cod.Palat.Germ.848 Heidelberg, Universitätsbibliothek W L H HB XIII 1 = Poet.Germ. 1 Stuttgart, Württembergische Landesbibliothek Edited by Steen Clemmensen CONTENTS: Introduction 2 Manuscripts and editorial approach 2 Date, content and relations 3 References 6 Grosse Heidelberger (Manesse) Liederhandschrift 8 Weingartener Liederhandschrift 26 Ordinary of arms 28 Name index 30 © Steen Clemmensen, Farum, Danmark, 2008, www.armorial.dk Introduction: The miniatures with scenes of chivalry and coats-of-arms from the Codex Manesse or Grosse Heidelberger Liederhandschrift are probably the most used illustrations for both fiction and non- fiction books and articles on the Middle Ages. As such many of these are well-known to both armorists and interested members of the general public. The Manesse and the related Weingartner manuscript are collections of german medieval romantic poetry (Minnesang) with illustrations of the authors of the poems selected. All miniatures from both manuscripts are published in full colour and with extensive comments, and the Manesse is also available at the website of the Heidelberg University. This short editions of the coats of arms is merely intended as a key to the arms in the two manuscripts with short descriptions of the minstrels and notes on their relations to other armorials. The manuscripts and editorial approach The Grosse Heidelberger Liederhandschrift or Codex Manesse, MAN, BGH #3, Heidelberg Universitätsbibliothek, Cod.Palat.Germ.848, is written on parchment, 250 x 355 mm, presently of 426 folios, with ancient pagination in arabic numerals and some legends (omitted) in thin black ink, and contain 6000 verses by 140 poets living c.1150-c.1230, and 137 miniatures, numbered in roman numerals in heavy red ink, with 117 coats-of – arms by 4 illuminators.

  • Kenneth Fockele (Berkeley)
    Kenneth Fockele (Berkeley) PERSPECTIVES ON THE SELF: HEINRICH VON VELDEKE AS AUTHOR Through a survey of Heinrich von Veldeke's lyric, I show that the juxtaposition of distinct voices provides the audience with multiple perspectives on the speakers of the songs and thus projects an implied author who commands many domains of intellectual and aesthetic knowledge and skill. Rather than promulgating any one ethical or aesthetic ideology, he has mastered the possibilities of all. A comparison with Peter ofBlois sharpens the contours ofVeldeke's specific form of authorship, which remains removed from clerical preoccupations. Minnesang scholarship has paid too little attention to Heinrich von Veldeke. He has often been considered a special case, tangential to the main body of the German Minnesang tradition. 1 He gained this reputation in part because he came from near Maastricht in Limburg, a region far from most poets of the Minnesang. Rather than representing the culture ofthe Low Countries or of Germany univocally, he straddled both over a varied career. His lyrics have been overshadowed by the reception ofhis majornarrative work, Eneit, translated from the Old French Roman d'Emias into Middle High German. Less studied is his legend of St. Servatius, translated from the Latin into a Maaslandic dialect of Low German. His linguistic abilities, as well as the allusions in his works, suggest that Veldeke received some education at a cathedral or monastery school. 2 In part because Veldeke attributes the impe­ tus for his translations of the two narratives to several historically attested patrons, Countess Agnes of Loon, Sexton Hessel of the monastery of Serva­ tius in Maastricht, and Count Palatine Hermann (who became Landgrave Hermann I) in Thuringia, his career has been the subject ofmuch biographi­ cal interest and speculation.3 Yet despite the scholarly focus on his Eneit and 1 See Bemd Bastert, "Möglichkeiten der Minnelyrik.

I argue that the men who composed and performed these songs at court were, in fact, using them to create and curate individual profiles for themselves. The project of these poets is to persuade the audience of their own ethical insight and aesthetic skill. Each, in his own way, seeks to portray himself as the master of all possibilities offered by courtly song. In chapter one, using the manuscript versions of a song by Heinrich von Morungen, I develop a new concept of authorship for the unstable medium of medieval lyric.

  • 1 Veldeke Im Druck 1477–2020 Dieses Verzeichnis Ist Keine
    Veldeke im Druck 1477–2020 Dieses Verzeichnis ist keine eigentliche Veldeke-Bibliographie. Es umfasst bei seiner ersten Veröf- fentlichung 1000 Einträge aus einem Zeitraum von 543 Jahren. Sie haben dies gemeinsam, dass sie alle Veldeke (oder eine mit ihm identifizierte Person wie den Grafen ‚Veldeneck‘) mindestens ein- mal namhaft erwähnen. Es handelt sich ausschließlich um Drucke oder vergleichbare Veröffentli- chungen. Die wenigen nicht gedruckten Einträge sind maschinengeschriebene, in öffentlichen Bib- liotheken zugängliche Hochschulschriften. Magisterarbeiten wurden nicht verzeichnet. Alle Einträ- ge sind mit einem oder mehreren Links versehen. Sie führen in erster Linie zu frei abrufbaren Digi- talisaten, gewöhnlich direkt zur betroffenen Seite. Vor 1900 erschienene Drucke gehören in ihrer großen Mehrheit zu dieser Kategorie, alle bis JONCKBLOET 1870. Einige jüngere Drucke sind durch Vorschau auszugsweise abrufbar, viele andere nur bedingt abrufbar. Das bedeutet, dass sie entwe- der durch Logins von Universitäten und Bibliotheken, wie Aufsätze von ‚JSTOR‘ [Wikipedia ] und ‚DigiZeitschriften‘ [Wikipedia ], oder durch die Websites der Verleger gegen Gebühren zugänglich sind. Auf Digitalisate, die nur aus den USA abrufbar sind, wird nicht hingewiesen. Die meisten Drucke aus der Zeit zwischen Anfang und Ende des 20. Jahrhunderts sind in Europa noch nicht abrufbar. Ein Link führt in solchen Fällen zum ‚Gemeinsamen Verbundkatalog‘ [ GVK ] oder ‚Wor- ldCat‘ [ Wikipedia ]. Die Bibliographie verzeichnet mehrheitlich Forschungsliteratur, aber auch populärwissenschaftliche Schriften, allgemeine Literaturdarstellungen und spezielle Rezeptionszeugnisse wie Gedichte und Erzählungen über Veldeke (z. B. KOENEN 1923 und KEMP 1956). Für die Zeit vor 1800 wurde Voll- ständigkeit angestrebt, besonders für die Zeit vor GOTTSCHED s Schrift von 1745, welche den An- fang der eigentlichen Veldeke-Forschung markiert.

    596 German Studies MEDIEVAL LITERATURE By Nigel W. Harris, University of Birmingham 1. General The two-volume Encyclopaedia of German Literature, ed. Matthias Konzett, Chicago–London, Fitzroy Dearborn, xxii + 1136 pp., includes up-to-date articles, with select bibliographies, on the follow- ing medieval authors: Sebastian Brant (N. Harris), Gottfried von Strassburg (W. McConnell), Hartmann von Aue (F. G. Gentry), Heinrich von Veldeke (R. Fisher), Hildegard von Bingen (A. Classen), Hrosvitha von Gandersheim (H. W.

  • The Style and Structure of Minnesang
    THE STYLE AND STRUCTURE OF MINNESANG A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Adam Oberlin IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Professor Anatoly Liberman, Advisor May 2012 © Adam Oberlin 2012 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation arose from discussions with my advisor and committee chair, Professor Anatoly Liberman. His tireless dedication to the full spectrum of Germanic philology was the deciding factor in my application to the University of Minnesota, and it is with gratitude that I recall five years of advice, commentary, and encouragement. I owe thanks similarly to the members of my committee, Professors Kaaren Grimstad, Ray Wakefield, and Andrew Scheil, all of whom have impacted my scholarship and interests significantly, and whose examples as teachers and mentors are worthy of emulation. Without the generous and enthusiastic support of the faculty and staff of the Department of German, Scandinavian and Dutch; the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute; the Center for Medieval Studies; the Center for German and European Studies; and other departments and institutes I would not have finished this project and several others as quickly or with as much ease. The aid of people too numerous to list here was indispensable in obtaining many fellowships, grants, teaching positions, and other opportunities. For productive conversation and convivial fellowship I wish to thank the following friends and colleagues: Val Pakis, Paul Peterson, Erik Carlson, Sharin’ Schroeder, Elissa Hansen, Chris Flack, Adrienne Damiani, Ben Utter, Basit Qureshi, Jim Frankki, Josh Davis, Doug VanBenthuysen, Steve Carey, Ilya Sverdlov, Richard Harris, Evelyn Meyer, and all of the kind and helpful people I have met at conferences across the continent.
