Classen proves this to be a misconception, presenting here a selection of secular love songs and religious hymns composed by fifteenth- and sixteenth-century German women poets, translated for the first time. Many seem to have left their works anonymously, or hid their names using acrostics; in these and other cases, Classen has identified a considerable corpus of writing which now fills the gap previously supposed to exist in the history of medieval and early-modern German women's poetry.","brand":"Albrecht Classen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48280219386107,"sku":"9781843842965","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/9781843842965_9bb300f3-7d15-4cda-80ac-c62b484e8447.jpg?v=1772487508","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/late-medieval-german-womens-poetry-9781843842965","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
