To the medievalist, Tannhauser is the author of ironical and highly
original lyrical verse; to the folklorist, the subject of one of
Germany's oldest ballads; to the musicologist, the composer of the
only extant music for a Tanzleich and the hero of several operas.
J. W. Thomas examines the content and style of Tannhauser's verse,
discusses his sources and his influence on other medieval poets,
and gives a history of the ballad material in which he appears.
Also included is a diplomatic edition of Tannhauser's poems, both
verse translations of the poems and a version of the ballad, and an
extensive bibliography.
