The series Studia Linguistica Germanica, founded in 1968 by Ludwig Erich Schmitt and Stefan Sonderegger, is one of the standard publication organs for German Linguistics. The series aims to cover the whole spectrum of the subject, while concentrating on questions relating to language history and the history of linguistic ideas. It includes works on the historical grammar and semantics of German, on the relationship of language and culture, on the history of language theory, on dialectology, on lexicology / lexicography, text linguistics and on the location of German in the European linguistic context.
The history of German literature is to a large extent also a history of the translation and editing of Biblical texts. The study presents the translation technique of a medieval evangelist and provides insight into the methodical diversity of Bible translation in the late Middle Ages and the Early Modern Age.
