Description
English summary: Dispute as a means of settling conflicts of interest is a constant in human collectives. It is therefore no wonder that since Cain and Abel and the wrath of Achilles, disputes have been a perennial theme in European culture. Going beyond war and violence, disputes also have a creative potential, as manifested in the most diverse genres of fictional and non-fiction literature. Disputes are sometimes portrayed as intellectual games in which all the tricks of the trade are used, sometimes as instruments for major confrontations in the context of religious, cultural and political formation processes. This volume is dedicated to the portrayal of literary disputing culture and its functionalisation in societal transformation processes. Examples from antiquity to early modernity are examined from an historical, linguistic and literary perspective. German text. German description: Streit als ein Mittel zur Aushandlung von Interessenkonflikten ist eine Konstante menschlicher Gemeinschaft. So verwundert es nicht, dass Streit, beginnend mit Kain und Abel oder dem Zorn des Achill, von den ersten Anfangen an ein fortwahrendes Thema der europaischen Kultur ist. Jenseits von Krieg und Gewalt enthalt Streit auch kreatives Potential, was sich in den verschiedensten Gattungen fiktionaler und non-fiktionaler Literatur offenbart. Hier wird bald Streit im intellektuellen Spiel nach allen Regeln der Kunst in Szene gesetzt, bald wird die Literatur im Kontext religioser, kultureller und politischer Formierungsprozesse zum Instrument scharfster Auseinandersetzung. Dieser Band ist dem Inszenierungscharakter literarischer Streitkultur und seiner Funktionalisierung in gesellschaftlichen Veranderungsprozessen gewidmet; aus historischer, literatur- und sprachwissenschaftlicher Perspektive werden Beispiele von der Antike bis zur Fruhen Neuzeit untersucht.
