The first part of the dissertation presents Michal's biography according to 1-2 Sam. The literary quality of the Hebrew text is discussed as well as the questions which it raises, its lacunae and how these are filled in other ancient Jewish texts (1 Chr, LXX, Josephus, rabbinical literature) and in German translations of the last two centuries. The second part elucidates the attractivity of the Michal-figure as a protagonist in the work of German-Jewish poets from the past century to the present, the significance of the choice of this protagonist for their biography and work, their filling of the gaps of the Hebrew text and the contribution of their literary creations to the broadening of the scholarly horizon and of academic interpretations. Due to the focus in the second part of the dissertation, Jewish biblical scholarly approaches are used in dealing with the Hebrew text. Both, the German-Jewish literature and the Hebrew text, are approached from the point of view of literary studies.
