Dissertationes funebres oder Leichabdankungen

Beschreibung

Andreas Gryphius' »Leichabdankungen« (funeral sermons and speeches), presented here for the first time in a critical edition, are unique examples of the culture of mourning and consolation existing in the early modern age. The edition is based on the posthumous collected edition of 1666. An appendix contains all those supplements to the first prints of the »Leichabdankungen« that were not included in the collected edition and all other texts by Gryphius relating to the persons thus commemorated. The concluding section supplies the most important bibliographic, prosopographic, and historical information required.
