The article deals with the interpretation and dating of the „Märe“ Reinhart Fuchs, with its political function being elaborated. This is accomplished by means of a hierarchical order of the animal protagonists in a society of estates. The author of Reinhart Fuchs establishes a context with the „Märe“ Der arme Heinrich and draws on the new medical developments from Salerno, but also uses his own medical knowledge. Thereby, King Vrevel is characterised as a selfish person who, as a ruler, has no Christian virtue. The „Märe“ is defined by its anti-Staufian character and can thus also be classified quite accurately in terms of time. The author can be assumed to be Heinrich von Avranches, who had the requirements and the necessary knowledge.

In Modern Icelandic the form veri of the verb vera ‘to be’ is seen as a subjunctive expressing a wish. Treating Old Norse veri, earlier vesi, as an imperative of the third person simplifies the vera paradigm. A survey of the oldest attestations shows that veri not only fits qua form in the imperative paradigm, but also behaves like an imperative and expresses a command. The hypothesis that veri is an imperative can be extended to: Old Norse had an imperative of the 3rd person consisting of stem+i. What usually is called the use of the 3rd person subjunctive to fill in for the missing 3rd person imperative, would then be nothing else than a real imperative, which, however, in all verbs except vera coincides in form with the subjunctive. The form verir looks like a counter example to the hypothesis, but it is only found twice in poetry, never in prose, and can be explained as a common copying error. We cannot ask the native speakers of Old Norse, so the description of Old Norse veri as a subjunctive is a hypothesis as well. It is argued that seeing veri as an imperative is the more elegant solution.

First, the narrator’s comments in Wolfram von Eschenbach’s ‘Parzival’ with an ironic reference to the narrator himself and/or the coupling of the fictitious locations to his native landscape are compiled and explained, within which the mention of Wildenberc belongs, as a place of writing and recitation, and to which the Grail Castle Munsalvæsche also owes its name. Then the identification with the castle near Amorbach and the question of whether it had already existed in Wolfram’s time are dealt with briefly, then extensively the two palas inscriptions and the history of their treatment and interpretation, especially regarding the doubts about their authenticity. With regard to the inscription on the right, it is argued that it does not name an architect Bertolt and a stonemason Ulrich, but first the architect, then the inexperienced writer of both inscriptions, who, with OWE MVTER, reminds us of ‘Parzival’ and its author. This short quotation refers to the structure of the plot and the subject matter of the work and thus shows that Ulrich was a connoisseur.
首先，叙述者在Wolfram von Eschenbach的《Parzival》中的评论讽刺了叙述者自己和/或虚构的地点与他的家乡景观的结合，被编译和解释，其中提到了Wildenberc，作为一个写作和背诵的地方，圣杯城堡Munsalvæsche也因此而得名。然后是对Amorbach附近城堡的认同以及它是否已经存在于Wolfram时代的问题，然后是对两个palas铭文及其处理和解释的历史的简要处理，特别是对其真实性的怀疑。关于右边的铭文，有人认为它不是建筑师Bertolt和石匠Ulrich的名字，而是建筑师的名字，然后是两个铭文的缺乏经验的作者，他们与OWE MVTER一起让我们想起了“Parzival”及其作者。这段简短的引言指的是情节的结构和作品的主题，从而表明乌尔里希是一个鉴赏家。

To this day, “Mauricius of Craûn” still holds a number of research desiderata. Author and dating are undetermined, but also the purpose of this “Märe” is to be questioned. Records appeared late and thus provide little information for the research questions. The author’s approach to this “Märe” is to look at the characters as allegorical figures. This results in a new perspective and it also indicates the text’s closeness to the papal bull “Vox in Rama” in terms of language. Pachurka has already demonstrated the relationship between a Latin work of Heinrich von Avranches and Walther von der Vogelweide in 2020. Here, too, the linguistic proximity is obvious and quite deliberately chosen. This essay is intended as an impulse for thought, whereby the author can actually only serve as a likely thesis. However, the “Märe” “Mauricius of Craûn” would fit into the lifetime achievements of Heinrich von Avranches.

The Linköping Legendary contains amongst other texts an Old Swedish translation of the well-known medieval German legend of Gregory on the Stone. This text was translated into Swedish around 1525 in the monastery of Vadstena. In this article the Swedish translation is compared with the Middle High and Middle Low German originals. This comparison makes it highly probable that the translation was based on the 1478 Low German edition of the ‘Der Heiligen Leben’, also known as the ‘Passional’, by Lucas Brandis. Some differences between the Swedish translation and its exemplar can be explained as mistakes in understanding the Low German original.

Cambridge, University Library, Kk.3.18, the latest extant copy of the Old English Bede, is a remarkably reader-oriented manuscript. Consistently punctuated, rubricated, and furnished with the list of chapter headings, chapter numbers, and continuous running titles, it is easy to read and navigate. Complementing these signposts are lexical interlinear glosses. Many of them are dialectally unmarked variants of Anglian and obsolete/obsolescent vocabulary as well as nonce formations. Another subset consists of the alternatives to the words that were probably familiar to the late Anglo-Saxon audience. These additions enhance the translation similarly to the multiple psalter glosses. The third group corrects copying errors by supplying a reading found in other manuscripts. On the whole, these glosses offer an apparatus that facilitates a better understanding of Bede’s Latin composition and its Old English translation. In addition, they provide invaluable information about the development of the Early English lexicon and the scribes’ active repertoire and linguistic preferences.

This article examines current practices of normalization of names in Norse philology and computational linguistics that to a large extent build on deductive reasoning and external authoritative sources such as grammars, dictionaries and gazetteers. Instead, a survey of manuscript evidence and quantification of name forms at several levels of abstraction is proposed as an alternative inductive principle of normalization. A case study of name-form distributions in a dataset of 6,633 spatial attestations in East Norse literature from the Norse World resource serves as a point of departure for a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the approach. The comparison between attestations linked to the five most frequent place-names in Old Swedish and Old Danish shows the existence of typical spellings. However, there are still examples of norm negotiations and competitive distributions. Thus, the first inductive step of normalization can be complemented by further processing based on correspondences between phonology and spelling. Finally, stratified normalization of place-names pioneered by Norse World is seen as more versatile compared to traditional methods; the approach has a potential to facilitate both more nuanced philological and linguistic research as well as the further development of named-entity recognition tools.
