----- 尼伯龙根之歌
Filled with portrayals of deception, love, murder, and revenge yet defying traditional medieval epic conventions for representing character the Nibelungenlied is the greatest and most unique epic in Middle High German. The Klage , its consistent companion text in the manuscript tradition, continues the story, detailing the devastating aftermath of the Burgundians bloody slaughter. William Whobrey' new volume offers both together for the first time in English in a prose version informed by recent scholarship that brilliantly conveys to modern readers not only the sense but also the tenor of the originals.
