The one-eyed singer, songwriter, and knight errant Oswald von
Wolkenstein (surname literally "Cloud-Stone") was among the last of
the great troubadours. A contemporary of Villon, versed in
Petrarch, and a Knight of the Holy Sepulchre, Wolkenstein was lost
to history until scholarship in the 1970s recognized him as the
German language's first genuinely autobiographical lyric voice. In
the hands of the magician-translator Richard Sieburth, working in
the spirited tradition of Ezra Pound and Paul Blackburn,
Wolkenstein's verse rises from the page like a medieval Bob Dylan.
Facsimiles of Wolkenstein's musical compositions are included.
