Medieval Narratology - Narrative Forms and Function in the Middle Ages

这一网络的提出，旨在从根本上推进历史叙事学的理论领域，通过中世纪叙事参数来扩展叙事理论的范围和方法。该网络的成员从不同的欧洲以及伊斯兰背景的白话文学工作，并寻求描述和分析中世纪叙事的元素，形式和功能，以发展<$密切和批判性地参与现有叙事理论的主张<$<$理解和接近中世纪叙事的理论蓝图。讨论的中心将是视角、叙述者、人物描写、时间和空间、叙事逻辑、顺序以及虚构性等问题，这些问题总是在文本的特定历史和文化背景下进行衡量和理解。审查中的文本涵盖了从ca。1200年至1500年，主要是从史诗英雄传统，浪漫传统和宗教文学，以包括中世纪叙事文本的广度。该网络的成员将交换他们对历史叙事学的最新发展的看法，因为它涉及到各个学科，然后再转向与主要文本密切合作。因此，该网络提供了一个重要的跨学科交流平台，主题不仅与跨学科的中世纪研究有关，而且与文学研究，文学理论和文学史更普遍。 网络工程师：PD Dr. Jan阿尔伯，Albert-Ludwigs-Universität，弗赖堡，英语系教授。Brigitte Burrichter博士，朱利叶斯-马克西米利安大学，维尔茨堡，神经病学家。研究所教授波恩莱茵弗里德里希-威廉大学东方和亚洲企业研究所Stephan Conermann博士Monika Fludernik博士，Albert-Ludwigs大学，弗赖堡，英语系多米尼克嘿，路德维希-马克西米利安大学，慕尼黑，第一德意志系，Lehrkraft für besondere Aufgaben教授Florian Kragl博士，埃尔朗根-纽伦堡大学，Dep.

The proposed network aims to fundamentally advance the theoretical field of historical narratology by expanding the scope and methods of narrative theory by medieval parameters of narration. The members of the network work on vernacular literatures from different European as well as Islamicate contexts and seek to describe and analyse the elements, forms, and functions of medieval narratives in order to develop ¿ closely and critically engaging with the claims of existing narrative theories ¿ a theoretical blueprint for understanding and approaching medieval narration. Central to the discussions will be questions of perspective, the narrator, character depiction, time and space, narrative logic, sequence as well as fictionality, always measured against and understood within the specific historical and cultural contexts of the texts. The texts under scrutiny cover the period from ca. 1200 to 1500 and are taken predominantly from the epic-heroic tradition, the romance tradition, and religious literature in order to comprise the breadth of medieval narrative texts. The members of the network will exchange their views of the state of the art in historical narratology as it pertains to the various disciplines before they turn to working closely with primary texts. Hence the network offers a crucial platform for interdisciplinary exchange on a topic relevant not only for medieval studies across the disciplines but also for literary studies, literary theory, and literary history more generally.
