ヴォルフラム・フォン・エッシェンバッハ
From the mid 12th century the courtly romance, written in rhyming couplets, was the dominant narrative genre in MHG literature. Between and Hartmann von Aue, Wolfram von Eschenbach and Gottfried von Strassburg produced romances that were influential at the time and are recognized as classics. All were based on Old French sources, though heavily adapted and re-interpreted.
