Description:...

This study develops the theory that the practice of retelling reflected in the poetologies of German-language chivalric romance (twelfth and thirteenth centuries) must be understood not just as artificial poiesis but also as a practice of imitation and dispute. The study derives these two dimensions of the retelling historically from Horace’s Ars poetica and describes them conceptually using the concepts of artificiality and agon.
