Abstract

The article indicates different aspects of „forest“ in medieval German Literature, underlining the semantics of darkness and chaotic wilderness which make the forest in these texts a place of lost sense and indescribable absence of form. As a place of contingency, of a multiplicy of possibilities, „forest“ becomes the materia out of which narratives are generated.
