Frankfurt Parliament
The Frankfurt Parliament (german: Frankfurter Nationalversammlung, literally ''Frankfurt National Assembly'') was the first freely elected parliament for all German states, including the German-populated areas of Austria-Hungary, elected on 1 May 1848 (see German federal election, 1848). The session was held from 18 May 1848 to 31 May 1849, in the Paulskirche at Frankfurt am Main. Its existence was both part of and the result of the "March Revolution" within the states of the German Confederation. After long and controversial debates, the assembly produced the so-called Frankfurt Constitution (''Paulskirchenverfassung'' or St. Paul's Church Constitution, officially the ''Verfassung des Deutschen Reiches'') which proclaimed a German Empire based on the principles of parliamentary democracy.

He collected the humorous tales surrounding the "Priest from Kahlenberg" (''Pfaff vom '' r ''von''' Kalenberg''), published with a frame story in verse form as ''Des pfaffen geschicht und histori vom Kalenberg''. It was printed as early as 1472 or 1480 in Augsburg. The "Priest from Kahlenberg" is a folkloristic trickster or prankster figure. A 1490 edition was printed by Heinrich Knoblochtzer in Heidelberg. The work was very popular, reprinted well into the 17th century, with translations to Low German, Dutch and English. The figure of the "priest from Kahlenberg" is also mentioned in the Ship of Fools by Sebastian Brant and in the Till Eulenspiegel chapbook. The figure also inspired the modern narrative poem ''Der Pfaff vom Kahlenberg'' by Anastasius Grün (1850). The ''Pfaff von Kalenberg'' character is not named in Frankfurter's text. He is identified as one ''Gundacker von Thernberg'' by Ladislaus Sunthaym in 1486 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
