Parzival und Titurel presents two foundational works of Middle High German literature by Wolfram von Eschenbach. This volume offers readers a glimpse into the world of Arthurian romance and medieval chivalry.
Parzival tells the story of a young knight's quest for the Holy Grail, exploring themes of innocence, experience, and spiritual growth. Titurel, a fragment, delves into the history of the Grail's keepers. These poems showcase Wolfram's mastery of narrative and his profound insights into the human condition.
Edited by Karl Simrock, this edition makes these important works accessible to modern readers, preserving the beauty and complexity of the original language. Parzival und Titurel is essential reading for anyone interested in medieval literature, German history, and the enduring power of myth.
