This essay establishes a connection between the late medieval fairy tale Der fünfmal getötete Pfarrer and the penitential of John of Erfurt. A critical examination of the state of research takes place and an alternative is offered. The tale can also be a critical examination of church rules that are ridiculously pushed to their limits.

A valuable collection of late medieval German poetry contains a number of known and new alliterating word-pairs, here surveyed and analyzed for the first time. While reaching beyond the medieval German period covered by earlier studies, it helps complete the survey of German literature approaching the mid-thirteenth century, and provides evidence up until circa 1500.

“Barlaam und Josaphat,” probably written around or just after 1200 by Otto II Bischoff of Freising, contains 36 alliterating word-pairs, here collected and analyzed philologically for the first time, including comparison with earlier attestations of the pairs in German. The data include seven pairs recorded in “Barlaam and Josaphat” for the first time, and add to the over 1,500 word pairs documented here and in earlier studies for the earlier phases of German, while attesting to Otto’s propensity to use this rhetorical device in this work.
“Barlaam und Josaphat”可能在1200年左右或之后由Freising的Otto II Bischoff撰写，包含36个头韵词对，在这里首次收集和分析，包括与早期德语对的证明进行比较。这些数据包括《Barlaam and Josaphat》中首次记录的7对单词，并在这里和早期对德语早期阶段的研究中记录了超过1500对单词，同时证明了奥托在这部作品中使用这种修辞手段的倾向。

This article connects the existing results of the study of the language of the medieval city chancellery of Cracow, which was conducted without distinguishing individual entries into the text types they represent, with the results of the analysis of the language in testamentary records. Wills, as a type of text, appear in city records as a mass source. It seems that the previous claim as to an almost unconditional avoidance of dialectal features in the city registry must undergo some reconsideration depending not only on the producer of the text, but also the entire context of the communicative situation and the type of text that is the written product of a social activity. The analy-sis not only verifies previous assertions, but also draws attention to a new research perspective on medieval city books, which is worth applying to the selection of the research corpus. The author also refers to her earlier contributions in the field of the syntactic research on the medieval city chancellery.

The Legendary ‘The Lives of the Saints’ became a medieval bestseller soon after it was composed in the early 15th century. This success was due to its simple, standardised language and its theological programme aimed at promoting a collectively lived spiritality. However, different concepts of holiness or narrative elements such as exorbitantly cruel martyrdoms, the ascetic isolations or mystical excess challenged this homogeneity. The article shows that the redactor was very conscious of these elements and made an effort to even them out. In this way, the Legendary partially counteracts its sources by narrating against a self-sanctification of the human being. Thus, it corresponds to the ideas of the Dominican Observance by developing a kind of literary asceticism.

Starting from present-day German Nachtigall ‘nightingale’, which shows an uncommon and unexpected i-linker, this article provides a morphological analysis of the word and its cognates. Through the frame of historical linguistics, and in particular the historical phonology and morphology of Proto-Germanic, it can be shown that Nachtigall and its Germanic cognates witness a relic word-formation that can be traced back to a delocatival compound in Proto-Indo-European. Comparative evidence allows for just such an etymology within poetic phraseology as well.

Middle High German has no equivalent to our word “reality”. Instead the terms “wâr”, “wære”/“gewære”, and “wârheit” applied primarily. They could denote two things: either the higher reality in the divine realm, or simply everyday reality. Both are encountered in Der guote Gêrhart by Rudolf von Ems.

The goddess Nehalennia is known principally from two sanctuaries in Zeeland that have been dated to the late second and early third centuries. Variously explained as a Celtic or Germanic theonym, Nehalennia may best be understood in terms of the evidence of other names associated with Roman Zeeland. The Nehalennia sanctuaries are both situated in an area that seems likely to have fallen within the Roman civitas named for the Belgic Menapi, but the cult of Nehalennia appears likely to have been an originally Germanic development before it became more widely adopted by all manner of merchants who traded through the ports in the area. The theonym appears to record similar phonological developments to names recorded of Marsacian soldiers stationed in Roman Britain and Nehalennia accordingly appears to have been a goddess of the Marsaci.
