The Jewish community of Frankfurt am Main was expelled from the
city in 1614 during the Fettmilch uprising. In 1616 the Jews were
readmitted to the city in a formal ceremony during which the
leaders of the riots were executed. These historical events were
set forth in a poem entitled Megillas Vintz by Elhanan Helen, an
eyewitness. This book contains an introduction, a critical edition
of the Yiddish and Hebrew text of Megillas Vintz, the German
translation by Wagenseil, a translation into English and a
bibliography. The literary characteristics of the poem are
discussed as well as the Ashkenazic rituals of coping with
catastrophe. Since Megillas Vintz was chanted to the tune of Die
Schlacht von Pavia in Frankfurt on Purim Vintz, the melodies are
reproduced in an Appendix.
