This book discusses the exchange of sexual intercourse for money or gifts in short Middle High German narratives (»Mären«). By drawing closely on the discussion of pre-modern forms of exchange in history and anthropology, the analysis highlights the performativity, ambiguity, and temporal grounding of exchange, as well as shedding light on its poetics.
