Abstract:

This book provides a complete overview of the tradition of High German 
translations of the apocalypse in the 14th and 15th century. The methods 
and requirements of translation are investigated in the context of traditional 
Bible interpretation. The translation profiles are primarily influenced by the 
orthodox interpretation of the apocalypse and its transmission in sermons 
and by the author profile of John the Evangelist. The texts thus do not 
offer 'apocalyptic' reading but instead emphasize the hopeful character of the 
book and its didactic potential.
