Inaug.-Diss.--Greifswald. / Lebenslauf.

Volume I. Part I describes the known versions of the Erec/Gereint story, giving whatever information is available about the circumstances of their composition. Particular attention is paid to the manuscript tradition of Erec et Enide by Chrétien de Troyes, to the place occupied in that tradition by the exemplar which was available to Hartmann von Aue, and to the two manuscripts of the French prose adaptation (showing the significance of the text contained in the unpublished Paris MS.). Part II is concerned with the highly problematical relationship between Erec et Enide and the Welsh story of Gereint fab Erbin. It is argued that the author of Gereint must have used a written source that was in a language other than Welsh. However, an important feature of Gereint is the technique of using formulas which, being Welsh, cannot have been taken from the (foreign) narrative source. There is evidence also of borrowing from a passage in the Historia Regum Britanniae, combined with material from Welsh tradition. Since the Welsh author used a technique of composition that will account for the differences between Gereint and Erec there is no advantage in supposing a lost common source. The disadvantages of such a supposition are that Chrétien's source may not have been a written text, and that it requires a belief in a whole series of coincidences to account for the total disappearance of the manuscripts. A final argument is available from the fact that Gereint incorporates information contained in a couplet which seems to be a later interpolation into the Erec text. Volume II contains the material (mainly text) which is to be read in parallel with the main discussion. The major item is an edition of Gereint fab Erbin (with English translation) marked in such a way as to show the different elements of its composition, and with corresponding passages from Erec et Enide set in parallel.

The Roman de Thèbes and Chrétien de Troyes' Erec et Enide are romances of an Anglo-Norman tradition, which were crafted during the second half of the 12th-century. The Roman de Thèbes, most probably created during the 1150s, is an anonymous reworking of Statius' first-century Thebaïd and relates the story of the battle between Greeks and Thebans, which breaks out because Oedipus' sons fight over their inherited lands. Chrétien de Troyes' Erec et Enide, an Arthurian romance, was created in ca. 1170 and culminates with the coronation of Erec as the new king of his lands. Both of these texts therefore deal with questions of land inheritance and were, very significantly, written during important stages in Henry II's career, as it was during this time frame that Henry II (1133-1189) gained dominance in the British Isles as well as in western continental Europe. My thesis will discuss these works separately, devoting the subsequent section to the ekphrastic accounts featured in the Roman de Thèbes. This chapter will focus on mappa mundi and Amphiareus' chariot and will discuss how these moments mirror the ambitions of Henry II during the early stages of his reign. Moreover, the penultimate section will then move on to discuss the coronation scene featured in Chrétien de Troyes' Erec et Enide, with a special emphasis on Erec's robe. This discussion will also examine how this scene mirrors the historical occurrences in of the late 1160s, during which time Henry tried to establish his authority in Brittanny. Ultimately, I will attempt to weave these moments together to provide a comprehensive reading of these ekphrastic accounts.

Für den mittelalterlichen Menschen ist die Verwandtschaft von zentraler Bedeutung. Demensprechend wird das zeitgenössische Denken weit über das Konzept von Personenbeziehungen hinaus vom Prinzip der Genealogie bestimmt. Es erstaunt deshalb wenig, dass nicht nur historiographische, sondern auch literarische Texte von dieser Denkform bestimmt sind. Zahlreiche wissenschaftliche Arbeiten haben dies inzwischen gezeigt. Mit der vorliegenden Dissertation wird eine Lücke geschlossen, die trotz des großen Interesses am Thema bis heute geblieben ist, indem der Frage nachgegangen wird, welche Bedeutung der Thematik in den deutschsprachigen Artusromanen des Mittelalters zukommt. Da die Protagonisten der Romane als Einzelkämpfer erscheinen, von deren Verwandten man nur wenig erfährt, und zudem die erzählte Welt besonders wirklichkeitsentrückt wirkt, scheint die Genealogie auf den ersten Blick in diesen Texten keine Rolle zu spielen. Die Fiktionalität der Artusromane ermöglicht es aber im Gegenteil, Möglichkeiten und Grenzen von dynastisch bedingtem Herrschaftsgewinn und persönlichem Leistungsstreben frei auszuloten. Die konkurrierenden Konzepte werden in den beiden ersten deutschsprachigen Artusromanen Hartmanns von Aue in ihrer Gegensätzlichkeit aufgegriffen: Erec, der Titelheld von Hartmanns erstem Roman, folgt dem Vater als einziger Sohn auf den Thron. Der Protagonist des ‚Iwein‘ hingegen erkämpft sich Ehe und Herrschaft im ritterlichen Zweikampf. Beide Artusritter verlieren aber ihre Herrschaft bis sie gelernt haben, die Schwächen dauerhaft zu überwinden, die aus ihrer dynastischen Selbstsicherheit bzw. ihrer leistungsorientierten Übermotivation erwachsen. Während in den Artusromanen Hartmanns eine Form der Herrschaftsübertragung von zentraler Bedeutung für den Weg des Protagonisten ist, wird in den nachklassischen Artusromanen ‚Wigalois‘ Wirnts von Grafenberg und ‚Wigamur‘ durchgespielt, wie sinnvolle Verknüpfungen einer erfolgreichen Herrschaft nützlich sind. / For medieval man, kinship is of central importance. Accordingly, contemporary thought was determined by the principle of genealogy far beyond the concept of personal relationships. It is therefore hardly surprising that not only historiographical but also literary texts are characterised by this form of thought. Numerous academic works have shown this in the meantime. This dissertation fills a gap that has remained despite the great interest in the subject to this day by investigating the significance of the topic in the German-language Arthurian novels of the Middle Ages. Since the protagonists of the novels appear to be lone warriors whose relatives we learn little about, and since the narrated world seems particularly removed from reality, genealogy does not appear to play a role in these texts at first glance. On the contrary, the fictional nature of the Arthurian romances makes it possible to freely explore the possibilities and limits of dynastic rule and personal ambition. The competing concepts are taken up in Hartmann von Aue's first two German-language Arthurian novels in their contradictory nature: Erec, the title hero of Hartmann's first novel, succeeds his father as the only son on the throne. The protagonist of 'Iwein', on the other hand, fights for marriage and rule in a knightly duel. However, both Arthurian knights lose their rule until they have learnt to permanently overcome the weaknesses that arise from their dynastic self-assurance and their performance-oriented over-motivation. While in Hartmann's Arthurian romances a form of transfer of rule is of central importance for the protagonist's path, the post-classical Arthurian romances 'Wigalois' Wirnt’s von Grafenberg and 'Wigamur' play out how meaningful connections are useful for successful rule.
