Verse Techniques in Translation. The Internationalization of German Poetics and Occasional Poetry of the 17th and 18th Century

该项目调查了欧洲诗歌技术转移到德国诗学和偶尔的诗歌在近代早期。这是第一次，一个国际和年代全面的视角，包括几个世纪的巴洛克和启蒙运动。通过分析外国诗歌规则和示范文本向德国诗歌体系的转移过程，可以重构一种新的诗歌语言是如何建立起来的细节。研究对象是诗歌教材和诗歌写作教学纲要。到目前为止，这些纲要所引起的科学关注还远远不够。为了深入了解诗歌实践，该项目比较了17世纪和18世纪两个偶然诗歌中心的诗歌产出：布雷斯劳和苏黎世。这使得我们有可能深入了解一种最重要的音乐类型，以及它在讨论欧洲和全球节奏中的相关性。欧洲流行的语言彼此相切，相应的领域在奥皮茨的《德国诗歌》开始的时代扩大，表达了一种非常巴洛克式的诗歌立场，直到1800年左右世纪之交，古典主义达到顶峰根据当时的历史理解。在这一过程中，欧洲语言进入了一种独特的竞争状态。特别是在17世纪和18世纪，《连经颂》为翻译节奏、节拍和押韵的诗歌符号系统提供了空间。随着全球化的不断发展，18世纪的德国诗歌体系受到了多方面的跨欧洲的冲击，迄今为止还没有研究对其进行分析。翻译的过程将主要在印刷字符的水平上进行审查。也包括在音乐人物层面的媒介转移。通过在歌词中使用特定形式的诗和节，暗示了某些外国旋律。该项目是Zeichensysteme和mediale Transformationen第一部分的组成部分。首先，它全面地要求其他文化和语言的模式技巧和文本被纳入德国诗歌语言的大量形式。在广泛的基础上，该项目将揭示当代人如何理解外语的诗歌知识，在翻译过程中被激活，从根本上帮助创造德语“Lyrik”作为一种新的诗歌类型。从文化爱国的立场来看，这一结果被解释为一项至高无上的成就。研究结果将通过(i)汇编17和18世纪德国诗歌纲要和诗歌教科书的国际来源的剧目以及（ii）在调查期间对诗歌语言国际化的研究来记录。方法上的创新在于将翻译和诗史分析结合在一个社会历史背景下。

The project surveys the transfer of European verse techniques into German poetics and occasional poetry in Early Modern Times. For the first time, an international and chronologically comprehensive perspective which comprises the centuries of Baroque and Enlightenment is taken. By means of analysing the processes of transfer of foreign poetic regulations and model texts into the German poetic system it is possible to reconstruct the details of how a new poetic language becomes established.The objects of investigation are poetic textbooks and didactical compendia of writing poetry. These compendia have drawn only very insufficient scientific attention up to now. To get insights into poetic practices the project compares the poetic output of two centres of occasional poetry in the 17th and 18th century: Breslau and Zurich. This makes it possible to get insight into a most important genre and its relevance in the discussion about European and global rhythms.The popular tongues in Europe were tangent with one another and the correspondent domains expanded in the era initiated with Opitz’ Buch von der Deutschen Poeterey, articulating a very Baroque stance towards poetry, up to the turn of the century around 1800 when classicism reached its peak according to historic understanding of the time. In this process the European languages get into a situation of distinctive competition. Especially in the 17th and 18th century the oratio ligata provides space to translate poetologically symbolic systems of rhythm, beat and rhyme. With respect to the growing globalisation the German verse system in the 18th century gets manifold trans-European impulses that research has not analysed up to now.The processes of translation will be scrutinized mainly on the level of printed characters. Also included is the medial transfer on the level of musical characters as well. By using specific forms of verse and stanza in lyrics certain foreign melodies are implied. This project forms an integral part of the first section Zeichensysteme und mediale Transformationen. First of all it comprehensively asks for model techniques and texts of other cultures of languages that get incorporated into the vast stock of forms in German poetic language. On a broad basis the project will reveal how contemporaries came to understand that the poetological knowledge of foreign languages, activated in the process of translation, fundamentally helps creating the German ‘Lyrik’ as a new genre of poetry. From a cultural patriotic stance the result is interpreted as a paramount achievement. Research results will be documented by (i) compiling a repertorium of the international sources of German poetic compendia and poetic textbooks of the 17th and 18th century as well as (ii) a study of the internationalisation of verse language in the period of investigation. Methodologically the innovation lies in tying together the analysis of translation and verse history within a socio-historic context.
