Zum Marner als Minnesänger
No full textAusgehend von einer Analyse der besonderen Überlieferungssituation der Lieddichtung des Marners, eines Dichters des 13. Jahrhunderts, unter dessen Namen lateinische und deutsche Lieder und Sangspüche tradiert sind, werden Fragen der Strophenbindung und Liedeinheit, der ‚Autor‘-Konzeption, der Œuvrekonstitution, der Gattungspoetologie und der Authentizität seiner Minnelieder diskutiert. Es wird aufgezeigt, inwieweit sich auf der Basis einer Neuinterpretation der Minnelyrik des Marners spezifische poetische Verfahren, literarische Interessen und kulturelle Entwicklungen erkennen lassen. Man kann bei aller Traditionsbezogenheit eine doch recht eigenwillige Gestaltung und Eigenständigkeit im Einzelnen in einem Œuvre erkennen, das man mit Blick auf den eindeutigen Überlieferungsbefund eher einem einzigen als mehreren Sängern zuordnen sollte. Das unter dem Namen Marner in der Großen Heidelberger Liederhandschrift gesammelte Minnesang-Œuvre gehört einem Sänger, der in die Tradition solcher Berufsdichter gestellt werden kann, die Minnelieder und Sangspruchdichtung in ihrem Repertoire hatten und sich dabei auf ihr eigenes dichterisches Können stützten.

ZUM MARNER ALS MINNESÄNGER
MARNER AS MINNESÄNGER. This article deals with poems associated with a German poet of the 13th century known as “Der Marner”, under whose name both Latin and German Lieder as well as Sangsprüche have come down to us. Starting from the peculiar textual history of Marner’s Lieder, the paper discusses crucial questions such as stanza-linking and the overall unity of the poems, while examining the conception of the ‘author’, the formation of the œuvre as a whole, and the poetic status of the different types of poems. Finally the important question of the authenticity of Marner’s Minnelieder is raised. The central thrust of the article is a new interpretation of Marner’s Minnelyrik, one that allows specific poetic patterns to emerge, and thus throws light on the underlying literary interests of the author and cultural movements of which he was a part. What will be argued is that this œuvre, notwithstanding its close adherence to tradition, in fact has a far from conventional organisation and a striking originality of detail. These, it will be claimed, are two strong reasons why – as is also suggested by the unequivocal findings from the textual records – the whole œuvre might more convincingly be attributed to a single Sänger than to a series of different poets. The conclusion is that the corpus of Minnelieder transmitted under the name of “Der Marner” in the so called Große Heidelberger Liederhandschrift (Codex Manesse) should be seen as the work of a Sänger who firmly belongs to the tradition of professional singers whose repertoire comprised both Minnelieder and Sangsprüche and who could rely on a considerable poetic ability of their own

KINSHIP DESTRUCTION AS A RESULT OF ENGLAND’S SOCIAL STRATIFICATION REFLECTED ON GEORGE ELIOT’S SILAS MARNER
No full textIndustrialization in England had a great impact on the life of the world. However,
it is undeniable that this phenomenon has led to the occurrence of class differences
which is judged from various aspects of life. The existence of stratification
sometimes leads society to divisions. Since there are differences in the interests of
each class, the conflict is inevitable. Social class demands society to attain a better
status and to maintain dignity even though it must give up to the fracture of true
human relation. This situation is reflected in George Eliot’s Silas Marner which
portrays the social life and paradigm of upper and lower classes in Warwickshire,
England. The aims of this study are to describe kinship destruction as the result of
social stratification in George Eliot’s Silas Marner and to explain the reflection of
world vision of society where the author lived on the novel. The methodology used
in this study was the qualitative method. It analyzed by using Lucien Goldmann’s
theory of genetic structuralism. The method of data analysis is based on the conflicts
of the characters in the novel, upper and lower classes. Silas Marner shows that
kinship destruction that occured is rooted from differentiation in society. The upper
class are described as the one who is always placed in a good position or the one
who always benefits, while the lower class is always in the opposite position.
Eventually, this is evoked social jealousy and conflicts as the factors of kinship
destruction. Then, society’s world vision that described is the bad result of social
stratification in Warwickshire especially between landed gentry and local farmer.
Eliot seemed to convey that social stratification is a trigger to a kinship destruction
since differentiations have a tendency to create a conflict. Conflicts which
unresolved certainly threaten human relation and eventually will lead them to a
destructed relationship
Simulations of the Androgynous Society: Shattering Gender Stereotypes in George Eliot’s Silas Marner
No full textThis paper examines George Eliot\u27s novel Silas Marner and the compelling argument it asserts against Victorian gender stereotypes. Through the contradictory successes of characters that fail to conform to their expected niches, Eliot presents her revolutionary vision for an androgynous society. Most notably, Silas’s accidental motherhood redeems his purpose while saving Eppie\u27s life, Priscilla\u27s ability to protect the well-being of her family stems from her avoidance of a husband and assumption of a “masculine” managerial position, and Eppie’s idyllic life with Silas is preserved by her refusal to be treated as a possession by male authority figures. Through the experiences of these figures, infused with elements of Eliot’s personal struggles and observations, the author demands a more efficient and effective world that is free from the cumbersome and arbitrary burdens of gender expectations
Silas Marner And Felix Holt: Antitheses and Affinities
No full textAt first sight there seems little to link Silas Mamer with Felix Halt. There are certainly contrasts, but it is harder to find similarities between a short pastoral idyll and a complex political work that looks forward to Middlemarch rather than backward to Silas Mamer. Surely there can be few links between a fairy-tale and social analysis, between a novel rich with \u27Rainbow\u27 humour and transformed \u27gold\u27 and a much darker novel laced with irony but short on both magic and jokes. Only five years separate Silas Mamer (published in April 1861) from Felix Halt (published in June 1866) but the second novel suggests an older author. Yet there are enough likenesses to link the two novels more firmly than we might at first realize. Both novels return to the Midlands, to the heart of England which always aroused some of George Eliot\u27s deepest feelings. It was the landscape of memory, the landscape of the heart. Admittedly, in spite of similar settings the openings of the two novels suggest greater differences. Felix Halt puts an immediate emphasis on public life with its brilliant description of a panoramic landscape, both rural and industrial, that is being crossed by a coach travelling through a vast \u27central plain, watered at one extremity by the Avon, at the other by the Trent\u27.\u27 George Eliot paints a crowded canvas, crowded with people and incidents, preparing the reader for what Jennifer Uglow has called \u27a very public novel with a constant cross-reference between individual and social histories, where the climactic events take place literally before a host of witnesses and are constantly assessed by a commenting audience\u27.2 The climate of comment is already present in the Introduction when the coachman remarks on the violence of the new Railways, the problems and voting preferences of the various landowners, and the rumours that have arisen. Felix Holt is bent on public reform and regards public opinion as \u27the greatest power under heaven\u27 (274). But the solitary figure of Silas Marner, although also the target of rumours, appears in a remote, rural landscape, \u27never reached by the vibrations of the coach-horn, or of public opinion\u27.3 Marner is one of a number of alienated figures who never seem to meet one another and who look \u27like the remnants of a disinherited race\u27:
The shepherd\u27s dog barked fiercely when one of these alien-looking men appeared on the upland, dark against the early winter sunset; for what dog likes a figure bent under a heavy bag? (3)
The lonely figure of a man, seen in anonymous silhouette against the last gleams of a winter sunset, looks even more lonely when George Eliot contrasts him with places where people congregate, farmsteads and great houses. Shut out from the golden windows, the glow of candles and firelight, the cheerful hum of conversation, he stands out in the cold in a dark silence where the only sound is the hostile barking of a dog on its guard against the intruder. Who knows where such an alien figure has come from, who is his father or mother, whence he gets his knowledge and skill if not from the Evil One?
To the peasants of old times, the world outside their own direct experience was a region of vagueness and mystery. (3
Silas Marner: George Eliot And MME Le Prince De Beaumont
No full textAt the beginning of chapter 15 of Silas Marner (1861), there is a reference to a well-known fairy tale. The paragraph is as follows:
That famous ring that pricked its owner when he forgot duty and followed desire - - I wonder if it pricked very hard when he set out on the chase, or whether it pricked but lightly then, and only pierced to the quick when the chase had long been ended, and hope, folding her wings, looked backward and became regret? (Penguin ed., p. 191)
Joseph Wiesenfarth has identified the fairy tale as \u27Prince Darling.\u27 He quotes from the first of Andrew Lang\u27s anthologies, The Blue Fairy Book (1889), which gives its source simply as the Cabinet des foes. After briefly summarizing the story, he concludes, \u27Fairyland paraphernalia removed, Darling\u27s story is Godfrey\u27s\u27 (\u27Demythologizing SM\u27 ELH 37,1970,226-244; p.231). My intention is not to elaborate on this parallel, but to propose where and when George Eliot is most likely to have read the story, and to suggest that its author may have been an important influence on her.
George Eliot could well have read \u27Prince Darling\u27 recently, for example in Four and Twenty Fairy Tales, edited by J. R. Planché. (London, 1858), but there is no copy of this book in her library. It is much more probable that she read the story as a child - i.e. between 1826 and 1829. I doubt if she read it in the Cabinet des fles, a vast 41-volume collection of fairytales edited by M. de Mayer (Amsterdam, 1785-89). \u27Le Prince Chéri\u27 (Prince Darling) is found in volume 35, which contains ten fairy-tales by MME Le Prince de Beaumont. There are two other possibilities. She may have come across it in a children\u27s anthology: \u27Prince Cheri\u27 (often corrupted into \u27Prince Cherry\u27) was a favourite story during the early nineteenth century (see Planché, pp. 547-8). But the most likely hypothesis is that she read the work in which the story originally appeared: The Young Misses Magazine (London, 1756/57) by MME Le Prince de Beaumont, an enormously popular educational work which was frequently reprinted until well into the nineteenth century
