Reinmars Women: A Study Of The Woman's Song ('frauenlied' And 'frauenstrophe') Of Reinmar Der Alte (german Language And Literature Monographs)

Reinmar der Alte, the twelfth-century poet also known as Reinmar von Hagenau, wrote a considerable number of ‘Frauenlieder’ and ‘Frauenstrophen’, i.e. poems and stanzas in which the speaker is a woman. However, there has never been a satisfactory scholarly treatment of these poems. Throughout the history of scholarship dealing with his works, the evaluation has been based mainly on a characterization of his personality. This volume tries to fill this gap by presenting and analysing the Woman’s Song of Reinmar. William E. Jackson. English And German. Includes Bibliographical References. Description based upon print version of record.
