Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

By analyzing Chretien's Cliges, Ulrich von Zatzikhoven's Lanzelet, Chretien's Chevalier de la Charette, and the Old French Prose Lancelot, as well as Andreas Capellanus' De Amore and Eschenbach's Parzival, Weigand presents a picture of the ideals of courtly love in Europe in the latter half of the twelfth and beginning of the thirteenth centuries. A long chapter on Parzival focuses especially on the introduction of Christian themes and changing ideas of the compatibility of love and marriage.
