This is an edition of Parzival, the Middle High German epic by Wolfram von Eschenbach. The text stays close to the manuscript, but its orthography has been normalised to make it easier to read.
The text rests on the St Gallen manuscript (Codex 857, MS D), considered the most dependable witness. It is set against Karl Lachmann’s 1833 edition, which aimed to present a text that an educated reader of the early thirteenth century might have encountered, and this edition brings the reading closer to the manuscript.
