Andreas Capellanus wrote "De Amore", his famous Latin treatise on
marriage, around 1186. Enhanced by theological, medical and legal
wisdom, his book of the art of loving greatly influenced the
literature of courtly love during the Middle Ages. For the first
time, this new edition contains E. Trojel's 1892 Latin text,
alongside a modern German translation. In addition, it contains
explanatory notes on the sources and a language commentary to aid
comprehension of particular passages and the difficulties of
translation. A bibliography, a postscript setting the work in its
literary context and numerous illustrations from medieval
manuscripts round off this new edition. In terms of the history of
human thought and literature, this famous text is of great
relevance to literary scholars, medievalists, historians,
theologians, and cultural historians, and serves as the basis for
an understanding of courtly love poetry during the Middle Ages.
