The sibling incest is an aspect that does not fit into the realistic (conscious), nature-related, or unreal (magical) action levels of this literary fairy tale. The reason for this unnatural sexuality may lie in the abnormally stunted forms of the desires and guilt exhibited by Bertha and Eckbert: unconscious versus purposeful striving and ethical ersus moral culpability. This article argues that only during their unnatural deaths in the respectively “wrong” realms does each partner gain the missing attributes so that their natural and normal existence is paradoxically – and romantically! – restored.

An undefined number of Spanish books held in the Special Collections of the Wrocław University Library (Poland) belonged once to the Yorck von Wartenburg family, which had a large private library in their Silesian residence in Klein Oels. The paper starts from the methodological approach to cultural mediation as described by cultural transfer studies and moves forth to contextualizing history of the private library, clarifying the role of the mechanisms involved in its creation (i.e. Ludwig Tieck’s private library) and presenting their interaction space (Joachim Ringelnatz as a librarian), to reach the conclusion that research on historical private libraries or on book provenance can be descriptive as well as it can show the interaction and exchange within a cultural realm.
