The Middle Ages, in a long-term perspective, opens to different epistemological approaches from distinct fields of knowledge. Within the Brazilian academic scenario, the predilection for models of historiographical and literary analysis based on French, Anglo-American, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese theoretical and methodological assumptions is understood for linguistic and historical reasons in the development of medieval studies in Brazil. With this statement in mind and with the aim of expanding access to other historiographies, in this article, after an introduction based on the medieval or medievalistic binomial, we conceived a brief discussion on the medieval studies of German and Latin literature in the 10th and 11th centuries with the reflective focus on Der zweite Merseburger Zauberspruch in Old High German and Medieval Latin paremiologically expressions.
