of these articles treats the literary term; for the seal in the technical sense see seal (technology).

Seal is a special German word formation in relation to the more international “poetry “, with which an easy misalignment of the focus is connected: Poetry is, so the poetologische theory, thatRange of the poetic kinds. Seal shifts the focus on the production process, sealing (mhd.ti [C] hten for “create, devise, invent, arrange”, out lat. dictare “dictate, put on, draw”) as well as connected with it on the metric bindingness of the language and the artificialness, the invention up of the sealing if notErdichteten. The Fiktionalität - it plays a subordinated role in the poetry debate - moved in the debate over the seal in 18. Century in the center. At the same time permit the term in the German discussion an increased thinking about the poet as that, the one higher world,the world of its seal in relation to the reality creates.

In 19. Century became - when literature was redefined for the range of the linguistic excessive quantities - the word in German to the term for in the “closer sense” production employing the view of literature. In 20. Century lost it opposite onemore neutral speaking of literature at meaning. “Poets” were, so the common perception, authors, which protected “and bring large art out “- a quality statement was hereby connected, which was not necessarily longer desired in the exchange over literature. The word fell with the national socialism, that at conceptions19. Century tied and from the poet the role of the Sehers and mental leader of the people required, into a discredit, that the literature science of the 1950er and 1960er only halfheartedly with a call after a back meditation on the lasting values and thus quite on a newDiscourse over seal, advanced toward. Speaking of seal lost with the currents of the literature science, which arose with the 1960ern from the Strukturalismus to the literature sociology, at meaning.

Seal one calls set works today primarily in verses in particular the Middle Ages (“play man seal “and comparable generic formationscarry the term away) and the German epochs from the storm and urge to the Vormärz - here the term of advantage seems in relation to the poetry term, with that far rather a tradition elbow of the antique one and Aristoteles in 18. Century and the time Gottscheds strainedbecome - an elbow, which it hardly permitted to attach to medieval seal value and an elbow, of that a German “poet” late 18. and early 19. Century dissociated.
