Reinhart Fuchs
The Altdeutsche Textbibliothek [Old German Text Library] is the series of editions of German medieval texts with the richest history. Founded in 1881 by Hermann Paul, it has been edited by leading Germanists - Georg Beasecke, Hugo Kuhn, Burghart Wachinger. Since 2001, responsibility for the series has rested with Christian Kiening.
In the meantime, the series comprises some 120 volumes, with an exemplary combination of closeness to the original manuscript(s) with ease of reading, philological accuracy with concern for university teaching. It includes recognised editions of "classical" authors from around 1200 - some with commentary - but also presents veritable editions of authors' works (Notker the German) and high-quality new editions (Eckenlied, Heinrich von dem Turlin).

Klassiker zu bewerten, ist und bleibt schwierig bis unmöglich. Reinhart Fuchs war die Grundlage eines Konversatoriums, das ich an der Uni besucht habe. Wir haben daher viel über den Text und vor allem einzelne Passagen / Elemente / Inhalte diskutiert. Dank diversem Hintergrundwissen zum Text konnte ich auch viel zwischen den Zeilen lesen.

Rating classics is, and will remain, difficult—almost impossible. Reinhart Fuchs was the basis of a seminar I attended at university, so we discussed the text a lot, especially individual passages, elements, and themes. Thanks to various background knowledge about the work, I was also able to read a lot between the lines.

Ein kurzer, unterhaltsamer Tierepos, der eine gute Grundlage für Interpretationen bietet. Besonders zum Ende hin hat es Spaß gemacht, das Geschehen im Seminar zu diskutieren.

War manchmal ein bisschen komisch (und random) aber an manchen Stellen auch verstörend und es hat mich SEHR wütend gemacht, wie mit Hersant umgegangen wurde
