Abstract
Abstract This article deals with Sibylla Schwarz’ poetic confrontation with the literary authority of the early 17th century par excellence. In Martin Opitz, she not only found a model to follow, but also a point of orientation for her own approach to writing, which is why she productively transforms his material and texts, but develops her own forms and arguments in this imitation. She repeatedly addresses him explicitly as an ally in matters of poetry and the implementation of poetic guidelines, who, like herself, had to overcome resistance. Both his texts and his personality are appreciated in this context and integrated into her own writing. In doing so, she follows Opitz in a strategy propagated by himself and thus continues it.
