| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study uses a medieval German heroic epic to explore the transfiguration of oral heroic tales, which are a community’s memory transmitted through media, through the contamination of the tradition of written literature. This is also an attempt to explain the cultural history of the relationship between memory and media with the demonstrative research on these literary works. Specifically, this study interprets whether the historicity of the oral heroic tales has been maintained in the written works, and the authorship of anonymous heroic tales that hands down the transindividual memory of a community and cannot be regarded as individual creations. This research explains firstly the actualizing of the old material through contemporary literary methods in the written heroic epic, and secondly the view of the authors of the existing literary traditions.
