Im vorliegenden fünften Band der Reihe MimaSch werden Entstehung, Realisierung und Ergebnisse einer immer wieder geforderten Zusammenarbeit zwischen Schule und Universität dokumentiert. Im Zuge der themen- und kompetenzorientierten Vermittlung Mittelhochdeutscher Sprache und Literatur des Lehrstuhls für Deutsche Philologie des Mittelalters wurde zusammen mit dem E.T.A-Hoffmann-Gymnasium Bamberg in der gymnasialen Oberstufe ein wissenschaftspropädeutisches Seminar zum Heldenbegriff durchgeführt, an dessen Ende erste wissenschaftliche Arbeiten verfasst und präsentiert wurden. In einer Einführung wird u.a. das mittelhochdeutsche Nibelungenlied als Ausgangstext für eine schulische Auseinandersetzung mit dem Heldenbegriff diskutiert. Darüber hinaus wird aus der Sicht der betreuenden Lehrkraft der Mehrwert einer Ko-operation zwischen Schule und Universität gerade im Hinblick der aktuellen Kompetenzorientierung dargelegt. Abschließend werden die Qualifikationsarbeiten der Schüler:innen gesammelt, die eindrucksvoll die Lernprozesse und erzielten Lernerfolge verdeutlichen. In this fifth volume of the MimaSch series, the development, realization and results of a collabo-ration between school and university that has been repeatedly called for are documented. In the course of the topic- and competence-oriented teaching of Middle High German language and literature of the Chair of German Philology of the Middle Ages, a scientific propaedeutic seminar on the concept of the hero was carried out together with the E.T.A Hoffmann Gymnasium Bam-berg in the grammar school upper level, at the end of which the first scientific papers were writ-ten and presented. In an introduction, the Middle High German Nibelungenlied is discussed as a starting text for an educational examination of the concept of the hero. Furthermore, from the perspective of the supervising teacher, the added value of a cooperation between school and uni-versity is demonstrated, especially with regard to the current competence orientation. Finally, the qualification works of the students are compiled, which impressively show the learning processes and achieved learning successes.

The Middle Ages

Renaissance boys and girls attended a variety of different kinds of pre-university schools in England, France, Italy, and Spain. Renaissance Europe inherited from the Middle Ages a large educational establishment that was not a "school system" in a modern sense. Instead, there were different kinds of schools which complemented or overlapped each other. The many and confusing names for pre-university schools, such as song school, grammar school, and collège, further confuse matters.

The Birth of God in the Soul: The Beginnings of German-language Philosophizing in the Middle Ages in the Work of Meister Eckhart and Nicholas of Cusa’s Consummation and Demolition of Medieval Thought

The Middle Ages

This chapter traces the beginnings of German philosophy in the Middle Ages. It considers Dominican Meister Eckhart (c. 1260–1327/28) as the first German philosopher because he was the first writer to express his own philosophical ideas in the vernacular. It then focuses on Nicholas of Cusa (1401–1464), who was clearly influenced by Eckhart and whose genius he praised. Nicholas' first work, De concordantia catholica (On Catholic Concordance), published in 1433, defended the conciliarist position: that the council could depose a pope who violated his duties. He also elaborated a philosophy of the state that justified rule largely on the basis of consensus. His subsequent philosophical-theological works include De docta ignorantia (“On Learned Ignorance,” 1440) and De venatione sapientiae (“On the Hunt for Wisdom,” 1463).

The publication of the first German-language digital history textbook, mBook: History for the Future (mBook: Geschichte für die Zukunft, Cornelsen Verlag, 2016), drew much critical attention. In 2018, the mBook was awarded the prize for best textbook in the “society” category by the Georg Eckert Institute for its focus on improving learner competence. This article begins by assessing the mBook’s gradation feature (which allows for the linguistic gradation of sophisticated textual sources on several learning levels) and the textbook authors’ aspiration to convey methodological competence and foster understanding of unfamiliar topics (Fremdverstehen), with the help of work on documents, and an understanding of historical times far removed from our own. It quantitatively and descriptively assesses textual documents in the chapters about the Middle Ages, while focusing on their textual preparation and digital implementation.

The article focuses on theoretical concepts and their inter categorical interaction in the process of medieval cognitive-quantitative comparative reconstruction of color mentality in the Middle Ages. The authors point out that the reconstruction of the mentality of this period, which represents part of the culture, should be guided by a holistic method using formalized-quantitative methods, as deep symbolism permeated the lives of speakers of the German Middle Ages at all levels. The article also states that to describe the mentality as an expression of culture, it is advisable to choose important linguistic and cultural categories such as separate modules (eg, color notation) in the language picture of the world. The article notes that both in the texts and in the dictionaries the language picture of the world is represented by words and phrases grouped by semantics into multi-part lexical-phraseological fields. The authors of the article found that the reconstruction covers all linguistic means related to different, as a rule, the main parts of speech, which reflected historically the ancient syntagmatic thinking and its syncretism. Reconstruction as a process and result of hypothetical reproduction or establishment of certain, mostly non-existent characteristics of the medieval mentality is proposed to be carried out on three levels: 1) through the analysis of literary remembrances; 2) through the analysis of certain patterns of the language picture of the world; 3) through etymological and semantic analysis of words. At the same time, the article proposes to consider the holistic paradigm as the basis of the "new philology", which is defined as a combination of linguistics and literary studies, culturology, logic, ethnolinguistics and psychology. In the future, a comprehensive study of Old High German and Middle High German words according to these principles and using formalized quantitative methods will help to determine not only their linguistic and cultural peculiarities, but also to establish objectively the language picture of the world of the Middle Ages on the background of its culture.

Abstract Max Weinreich used the term yídishlekh to describe the traditional, ‘Jewishly patterned’ style of writing in Yiddish. Weinreich illustrated this style by comparing Mendele Moykher Sforim’s ‘Jewishly-styled’ 1884 Yiddish translation of Leo Pinsker’s Autoemanzipation (Berlin 1882) with the original German-language text. The present article demonstrates that in Judezmo as well as Yiddish, writers have consciously used ‘Jewish styling,’ and its converse, in the diverse literary genres they cultivated from the Middle Ages into the early twentieth century. However, as a result of somewhat divergent social, political, and ideological trends in the Judezmo as opposed to Yiddish speech communities later in the twentieth century, Yiddish writers today prefer to incorporate features of ‘Jewish styling’ in their writing, while Judezmo writers tend to reject them.
