Rabenschlacht : Textgeschichtliche Ausgabe

This is the second of the new Bremen editions of epic poems centring around Dietrich von Bern. In its content, the text of the »Rabenschlacht« (13th century) takes up where »Dietrichs Flucht« left off. The subject matter is a further abortive victory by Dietrich over his adversary Ermrich in the battle near Ravenna. The edition largely follows the written language of the leithandschrift (manuscript R). Differences in the various versions and other deviations of significance from a text-historical viewpoint are documented. Commentaries on the use of language and on references requiring explanation are printed below the ongoing text.Heinrich is the author of 'Rabenschlacht : Textgeschichtliche Ausgabe', published 2005 under ISBN 9783484645028 and ISBN 3484645024.
