Abstract

The Seventeenth Century charmingly illus. The same author's essay, 'Der Roman des Barock', in Formkriifte der deutschen Dichtung (see above, POETRY), 21-34, is a clear and eminently readable introd., parti- cularly valuable for its remarks on the courtly novel. The interest of H. Singer, Der deutsche Roman zwischen Barock und Rokoko, Cologne-Graz, Bohlau, vii + 210 pp., lies for us in its study of the transition from 17th to 18th c.and of Hunold's Adalie. Singer stresses the differences between the 'galant novel' and the Baroque, and puts forward the rather dubious concept , Friihrokoko'. That change is evident there can be no doubt, but Singer underestimates the extent to which elements of which he speaks in connection with Rococo are present in the Baroque, and surprisingly neglects Hofmannswaldau's Heldenbriefe, in which the Emma-Eginhard story (cf. Singer, p. 10, note) had already been treated and in which Hunold's attitude to love (Singer, p. 42) is clearly prefigured. It remains only to mention the following: Abraham a Sancta Clara, Hui und Pfui der Welt und andere Schriften, ed. J. von Hollander, Munich, Bruckmann; W. Lockemann, Die Entstehung des Erziihlproblems. Untersuchungen zur deutschen Dichtungstheorie im17. und 18. Jahrhundert, Heisenheim am Glan, Hain;
