»Old Poet«, New Readings: Recent Work on Hans Sachs and Perspectives for Future Research Stimulated by the flourishing of research on literature and culture of the early modern period in recent decades across the disciplines, interest in the body of literary works by the Nuremberg author Hans Sachs (1494–1576) is also on the rise again. This paper offers a report on scholarship devoted to his wide-ranging creative output and published between the re-emergence of Sachs studies in the mid-1970s up until the present day. Beginning with a retrospective that is primarily thematic in structure, it then turns to a discussion (in terms both of methodology and of content) of the focus and findings of studies to date, including the consideration of continuing gaps and desiderata. The latter are in the main related to textual problems, but also touch on many other aspects (literary, historical etc.) yet to be properly examined. There follows, finally, a delineation, based on the status quo as presented, of four highly relevant fields of study: the report thus provides a thematic and methodological framework of potential use for future research.

AbstractThis article examines two short narratives by Hans Sachs, ‘Of the Lost Talking Gulden’ (1553) and ‘The Poor Complaining Horse Hide’ (1557), as early ‘it-narratives’ that feature material things as their narrators, focalisers and protagonists: a gulden coin, and a horse hide that is then made into a shoe respectively. The small size of these things and their interaction with humans here works not to make them accessible for human handling, but allows them to provide a macro- and a micro-perspective on human society as an alternative to the normal anthropocentric view of sensory perceptions.

Auch wenn das Lied vom Hürnen Seyfrid überwiegend nur in Drucken des 16. und 17. Jahrhunderts überliefert ist, lässt es sich doch ungefähr ins 13. Jahrhundert datieren (evtl. um 1250). Es ist aber auch, sehr eigentümlich, in einer livländischen oder schwedischen Handschrift von ca. 1550 enthalten. Generell gilt, dass hier der Siegfriedstoff einen eigenen Weg eingeschlagen hat, der gerade im Spätmittelalter einen großen Erfolg genoss. In den Nibelungenlied-Handschriften m und n tauchen Hinweise auf den Hürnen Seyfried auf, womit das interessante thematische Geflecht etwas deutlicher wird, das auch bis zu Hans Sachs hinabreicht, der 1557 eine darauf aufgebaute Tragödie verfasste. In der altnordischen Dichtung entdecken wir recht viele Parallelen, so in der Thidrekssaga, und überall nimmt natürlich der Kampf Seyfrids gegen den Drachen eine zentrale Rolle ein.
