Abstract

The reception of Medieval Literature by the modern world cannot be understood but as the encounter of two worlds of two very different ages. Assuming this initial point of view, this paper analyses the way this encounter has been made in one of the most successful novels of the last decade: Der rote Ritter (1993) by the Swiss writer Adolf Muschg. Using the character of Parzifal, the process of reception of the original work by Wolfram von Eschenbach (including its original model by Ch. de Troyes) will be studied from the historical, thematic and formal points of view, that is to say, as an encounter between the Middle Ages and the modern world as well as between the modern narrative forms and the medieval ones in the novel.
