The use of rhyming couplets as the epic metre for the German Aeneid until the early 17th century was not only due to the reprints of Murner’s editio princeps, but also to Spreng’s work, the last edition of which was published in 1629. It was only about 40 years later that this formal pattern was superseded by the alexandrine, better suited to the stylistic requirements of baroque poetics.","PeriodicalId":52008,"journal":{"name":"DAPHNIS-ZEITSCHRIFT FUR MITTLERE DEUTSCHE LITERATUR","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2018-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76371386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Underestimated so far, this source gives a deep insight into contemporary theory of both appetites and affects as well as into its impact on juridical responsibility (imputability) and reason of state.","PeriodicalId":52008,"journal":{"name":"DAPHNIS-ZEITSCHRIFT FUR MITTLERE DEUTSCHE LITERATUR","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2016-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87808311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
