Originally published in 1996, this book is a study of two of the
central themes of medieval German mythology, the Dietrich and
Nibelung legends. It traces its two legendary topics form their
historical roots during the last centuries of the Roman Empire to
the medieval texts that make them known to us. Many of the medieval
texts have never been translated into English or even modern
German. A synopsis of each work is therefore included so that the
reader can form an idea of the content of the works in question.
The book takes a text-oriented approach. The book includes a
chronological chart which puts most of the texts and literary works
discussed in a European and world context.
