Late Medieval Literature

The concept of regionalism reemerged in literary studies discussions a few years ago. The following essay discusses this concept in the context of late medieval literature. In the essay the author is applying three new approaches to the notion of regionalism, which are based on the studies of both language and literature. On the basis of the discussed results, the dychotomy of two structures is introduced: ‚Abgeschlossenheit‘ of a region and its ‚Durchlässigkeit‘.
