Synopsis
Contributing Authors

Kurz vor Beginn seiner jahrzehntelangen Tatigkeit an der Universitat Bonn publizierte August Wilhelm Schlegel noch in Paris die Observations sur la langue et la litterature provencales. Die Observations bilden eine Skizze einer philologisch, linguistisch und literarisch begrundeten historisch-vergleichenden Provenzalistik und Romanistik. Die Beitragerinnen und Beitrager des Bandes eroffnen neue sprach- und literaturwissenschaftliche Zugange zu den zahlreichen Facetten der Observations, aber auch uber dieses Werk hinaus zu Schlegels Ubersetzungen aus den romanischen Literaturen und deren Rezeption in der modernen Literatur.

Shortly before the winter semester 1818/1819, when he would begin his decades-long professional career at the newly founded Rhenish Friedrich Wilhelm University of Bonn, August Wilhelm Schlegel published his “Observations sur la langue et la litterature provencales” while still living in Paris. Originally intended as a review of the first volumes of Raynouard’s “Choix des poesies originales des troubadours”, the “Observations” quickly became known as nothing less than an original and momentous outline of a philologically, linguistically, and literarily founded historical-comparative concept of Provencal and Romance studies. Besides, Schlegel also considered Germanic languages since these, according to him, played a decisive role in the emergence of at least the French language. The contributors to this volume open up new approaches to the study of Schlegel’s “Observations.” On the one hand, these concern both the numerous linguistic and literary aspects of the “Observations”; on the other hand, they also treat Schlegel’s translations from Romance literatures as well as their reception in modern literature.
