Abstract

In the tradition of imitatio poetics, exempla are typically assigned a well-defined role within the discourse of poetics: they serve to illustrate the praecepta, the codified body of poetic rules. This is particularly evident in the German normative poetics (Regelpoetiken) of the 17th century, whose epoch-defining prototype is Martin Opitzâs Buch von der Deutschen Poeterey. In these works, examples serving this illustrative function are abundant. That such exempla â emerging in late 1624 and early 1625 â might contain the forward-looking potential of a poetic (or poetological) creatio ex nihilo seems highly unlikely at first glance. Yet this, the present study contends, is precisely the point of how exempla are employed in Opitzâs poetics. The argument begins with the striking observation that a 27-year-old poet, having just published his first significant volume of verse â Teutsche Poemata, edited by Julius Wilhelm Zincgref in the spring of 1624 â does not draw on it as a source of exempla in his Buch von der Deutschen Poeterey later that same year. Instead, he subjects it to a kind of damnatio memoriae, making a radical new beginning: a visionary project of a âDeutsche Poetereyâ illustrated exclusively through previously unpublished material.
