This edition presents for the first time a great late courtly romance in the tradition of Wolfram von Eschenbach, in a student edition with commentary and translation. The romance, written by Ulrich von Etzenbach at the Bohemian court of Wenceslaus II (12781305), is also an early example of GermanCzech cultural connections. It combines history, legend, and perfectly developed courtly narrative.
