Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book is a significant addition to the body of literary scholarship on German poetry of the 13th century. It analyzes three chivalric poems by German poet Berthold, who is believed to be from Lower Saxony, and provides an important overview of his work and poetic style. The three poems, 'Crane,' 'Darifant,' and 'Demantin,' are framed by the historical events of the time and explore themes of courtly love, chivalry, and the moral dilemmas faced by knights. The first analysis, 'Crane,' focuses on the complicated relationship between the protagonist, a young knight named Crane, and the beautiful Queen of Hungary, and the many trials and obstacles he faces before winning her hand. The second analysis, 'Darifant,' explores the themes of honor, loyalty, and friendship through the lens of Darifant, a Persian knight whose friend is captured and held for ransom by the king. The third analysis, 'Demantin,' features a young knight who, while seeking to win the hand of his love, faces the wrath of her father, who has already promised her to another. The author's analysis provides rich insights into the literary techniques and narrative strategies employed by Berthold, positioning him as an important figure in the development of Middle High German poetry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
