Reviews

Offering brilliant essays ... the volume reorients and refreshes knowledge of cultural developments of the period.
*CHOICE*

There is much offered and almost nothing lacking in this volume, which is the best current vade mecum for Middle High German literature of which I am aware. This book is a must-have for any serious library.... The Camden House German Literature of the High Middle Ages will remain the premier literary history of this period for many years to come.
*MONATSHEFTE*

Thoughtful, solidly researched and written in an engaging style, these essays are as instructive as they are a pleasure to read.
*H-NET BOOK REVIEW*

The volume is an eminently worthy addition to this ambitious series and should be purchased by the libraries of both scholarly and undergraduate-oriented institutions.
*GERMAN STUDIES REVIEW*

[The book] should be enormously useful to a variety of audiences, from undergraduates taking survey courses to medievalist Germanists who need quick but thorough and often insightful introductions to an author or a work outside their usual speciality.
*GERMAN QUARTERLY*
