Wiederholung und Variation im Gespräch des Mittelalters und der Frühen Neuzeit

Repetition is a fundamental cultural act that appears in all fields of human life and behavior, as well as in communication. This interdisciplinary edited volume inquires into the creativity of repetitive conversational patterns in premodernity. These essays from the fields of history, linguistics, and literary studies analyze German, Spanish, French, and English text witnesses from the Middle Ages and Early Modern Period.
