The Nibelungenlied: with The Klage

The Nibelungenlied: with The Klage

Filled with portrayals of deception, love, murder, and revengeâ€”yet defying traditional medieval epic conventions for representing characterâ€”theÂ NibelungenliedÂ is the greatest and most unique epic in Middle High German. TheÂ Klage, its consistent companion text in the manuscript tradition, continues the story, detailing the devastating aftermath of the Burgundians' bloody slaughter. William Whobrey's newÂ volume offers bothâ€”together for the first time in Englishâ€”in a prose versionÂ informed by recent scholarship that brilliantly conveys to modern readers not only the sense but also the tenor of the originals.
