{"product_id":"history-as-literature","title":"History as Literature","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis volume presents excerpts and translations in parallel-text of three thirteenth-century South German verse chronicles: Rudolf von Ems's \u003ci\u003eWeltchronik\u003c\/i\u003e, the anonymous \u003ci\u003eChristherre-Chronik\u003c\/i\u003e, and the \u003ci\u003eWeltchronik\u003c\/i\u003e of Jans Enikel. These three works are close in language, in date, and in conception, yet they also differ significantly, representing the perspectives of three distinct sections of medieval society: courtly, monastic, and urban. The excerpts have been chosen from the beginning of Rudolf's chronicle, the middle of the \u003ci\u003eChristherre-Chronik\u003c\/i\u003e and the end of Enikel, so that taken together they give something of an impression of the chroniclers' arrangement of material in a continuum from the beginning to the end of history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Medieval Institute Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54245662458200,"sku":"9781580440424","price":22.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781580440424.jpg?v=1765431945","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/history-as-literature","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
