Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Great Epics of Mediæval Germany: An Outline of Their Contents and History The period of the Middle Ages has been graphically designated by Ludwig Uhland as a night of a thousand years. Yet, as the great poet remarked, this night was illuminated by brilliant stars. It will be our object to cast a glance at some of them, and see how their light shone through the darkness which enshrouded all Europe at that memorable epoch. The very life and soul of nations, and particularly of ancient nations, is expressed in their poetry; thus, when we attempt to study the very life and soul of Medieval Germany, and try to grasp its world of ideas, we must turn to its poetry. As is indicated on the titlepage, only the great epics of Medieval Germany will be considered in this volume, and nothing but an outline of their contents and history is to be given.
