– Sabine Obermaier, Das Fabelbuch als Rahmenerzählung: Intertextualität und Intratextualität als Wege zur Interpretation des 'Buchs der Beispiele der alten Weisen' Antons von Pforr. Heidelberg 2004. [extracts; please focus on pp 23-35 and 231-255].

Chair: Johannes Stephan

Scholars of premodern Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Syriac, and other, including modern, literatures meet every two weeks to discuss milestones of literary theory and recent contributions to narrative studies (mostly in English), with a particular focus on the analysis of frame narratives, such as Kalīla and Dimna. The subject of each session is one or two groundbreaking and thought-provoking contributions in literary theory, with relevance for the analysis of literary works. The fortnightly online meetings in the summer term of 2020 are to be carried on until July 22, 2020 on a remote basis. 

It is possible to join the group at any given time, please contact johannes.stephan@fu-berlin.de for participation.
