I can't find Bertrand in a good edition. Tom Send a noteboard - 23/02/2013 02:42:56 AM
I also ended up ordering some Mittelhochdeutsch works, like Walther de Vogelweide, the Minnesänger generally, and Parzival. I already had the Nibelungenlied. Oddly, buying the German works in the original was vastly more expensive than buying Old French works. I don't know why that is.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius
