Keine belegbare Zuordnung in der geprüften Auswahl.

The whole legend has Adelgunde hear of her betrothed’s death, refuse other proposals, choose the veil, and die at investiture. The full ATU searches, including the high-ranked 770 nun tale, did not identify a complete matching type.

Thompson-Motive

Thompson T81.7 is possible: the source gives death of a beloved followed by her death, but does not state causation and places the death at investiture. F1041.1.2 likewise remains possible as death from grief, not established. M110 is possible because the veil/investiture suggest profession while no vow is stated.

  Textbelege und Katalog

  F1041.1.2 covers death from grief for a lover or relative. The reported death is followed by Adelgunde refusing suitors, choosing the veil, and then dying at investiture, which leaves grief as a plausible but unstated cause. The narrower F1041.1.2.2 requires a woman dying on hearing her husband’s death; the knight is a betrothed, and her death occurs later, so that child is not applied.

  T81.7 says a woman dies on hearing of her lover’s or husband’s death. The source supplies that sequence but places her death later, at investiture, and does not explicitly give grief as its cause; retain as possible.

• Thompson M110 · Taking of vows and oaths.

  Mögliche Zuordnung · Textstelle

  Textbelege und Katalog

  M110 covers taking vows or oaths. Choosing the veil and undergoing investiture suggest religious profession, but no vow is stated; retain as possible rather than probable.
