Abstract
In the last centuries, the question of literary orchestration of historic material increasingly became a focal point of debate within the historical science as much as the study of literature. Since the 1970s, the paradigm shift of the linguistic turn argues the term reality as a linguistic construct and represented phenomena, leading to the revision of the term history. Not least since Hayden Whites theory of history as a literary piece of art historiography and literature appear in a stress field of both, actual cognition and complete isolation. This Thesis takes on this ongoing discussion about fictional versus historical texts, while schematizing historic Arminius-receptions of different eras and genres.
