This series will help introduce students to the breadth and depth of texts available for study in Middle High German. Each month, Dr. Isaac Schendel surveys the group to see which text students are most interested in exploring next.

Note: All sessions will be live recorded and shared with all enrolled students afterward for review and to allow those who cannot attend live to still participate in the class.

Recorded Sessions

All live sessions will be recorded and shared with enrolled students so everyone can review the material or catch up if they can’t attend live.


Note: If a recording does not appear as expected, please let us know at [email protected]. Thank you!

Required Texts


Iwein, the Middle High German Arthurian epic poem by Hartmann von Aue. There are a number of good dual-language editions of the Iwein poem available from large publishing companies, and any one of them will do. The instructor is partial to the de Gruyter edition (ISBN: 3110160846), but other editions, like the Reclam one (ISBN: 9783150190111), are also acceptable.
