The project analyses the formation of religious models based on the selection and compilation of short legends in extensive collections ('legendaries'). Such practices of collecting hagiographical texts are assumed to have an impact on the narrative form of the legends the compilations contain, because they are continually readapted in order to meet specific interests and pragmatic contexts. The project focuses on collections that were produced and used in monasteries of the Cistercian order. In contrast to former research that emphasizes processes of standardization and normation, the project aims to a better understanding of the multifunctional modes of adapting legendary narratives in different collections. Especially collections of the Cistercian order must be understood in their relations to both norm and practice. Each monastery apparently had a certain amount of freedom in compiling and combining hagiographical texts, an aspect that has not yet been examined. Although these collections responded to the order's efforts to standardize textual practices, the Cistercians also followed local interests. Therefore, two exemplary case studies on Cistercian Latin legendaries of the 12th century (subproject 1) and German vernacular legendaries of the 15th century (subproject 2) will analyze the specific shifts and dynamics regarding concepts of sanctity in different monastic milieus and groups of actors. Subproject 1 examines three legendaries (Cîteaux, Clairvaux and the 'Magnum Legendarium Austriacum') that represent the beginnings of Cistercian collection practice. The main focus is on the changes in collection strategies in the context of shifting local interests vis-à-vis the universal claims of the new order. Subproject 2 investigates collection strategies and concepts of legendaries compiled by the Lichtenthal scribe Regula. Her oeuvre will be described in relation to Cistercian collecting practices as well as the variability and processuality in legendary narrative. Thus, the subproject promises insights into the transformation of religious models in the context of vernacular textuality and monastic reform in the 15th century. The project aims to view Cistercian collections of legends from both a historical and systematic perspective to describe the dynamization of religious models in different social and institutional contexts as well as in processes of réécriture and translation.

该项目分析了宗教模式的形成，其基础是在广泛收集的简短传说（“传说”）中进行选择和汇编。这种收集圣徒传文本的做法被认为对汇编所包含的传说的叙述形式产生了影响，因为它们不断地被重新改编，以满足特定的兴趣和实用背景。该项目侧重于西多会修道院制作和使用的藏品。与以往强调标准化和规范化过程的研究不同，该项目旨在更好地了解不同收藏中改编传奇叙事的多功能模式。特别是收集的熙笃会秩序必须了解他们的关系，以规范和实践。每个修道院显然有一定的自由，在汇编和结合hagiographical文本，一个方面，尚未审查。尽管这些合集响应了教团标准化文本实践的努力，但熙笃会也遵循了当地的利益。因此，关于12世纪西妥会拉丁传说（子项目1）和15世纪德国白话传说（子项目2）的两个示例性案例研究将分析不同修道院环境和行为者群体中神圣概念的具体转变和动态。子项目1考察了三个代表西多会收藏实践开端的收藏品（Cristoteaux，Clairvaux和'Magnum Legendarium Cristacum'）。主要重点是在地方利益维斯于新秩序的普遍要求发生变化的背景下收集战略的变化。子项目2研究由Lichtenthal抄写员Regula编写的收集策略和概念。她的全部作品将被描述与西多会的收集实践以及传奇叙事的可变性和过程性。因此，该子项目有望深入了解15世纪世纪乡土文本和寺院改革背景下的宗教模式转变。该项目旨在从历史和系统的角度来看待西多会的传说集，以描述宗教模式在不同社会和制度背景下以及在重写和翻译过程中的动态。
