Excerpt from Oswald Von Wolkenstein: A Memoir of the Last Minnesinger of Tirol Long ago, in a Tirolese mountain resort facing the Rosengarten and the Schlern, I first made acquaintance with Oswald von Wolkenstein in the pages of a History of Bozen, and, fascinated by the romance of his life, determined to write a short paper on it. But years passed; other subjects filled my thoughts, until at last, in Tirol once more, I recurred to the half-forgotten theme and began to hunt up authorities. Then, so much material fell in my way and roused so keen an interest in my hero's poems and times, that the work grew in my hands to its present proportions. For Oswald cannot be properly studied apart from his times, and the well-rewarded labour of reading his verses in his own vernacular - using the modernised version as a'book of reference, impelled me to try to give some faint idea of his value as a poet. Pursuing the work in another. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
