=Annolied=

Synopsis
The poem consists of 440 rhyming couplets organized in 49 "strophes"

The work falls into three parts: the first recounts the sacred history of the world, from the creation to the time of Anno II (strophes 1–7); this is followed the secular history of the world up to the foundation of the German cities (including the theory of the world empires derived from the vision of the Book of Daniel) (strophes 8—33); and finally a biography of Archbishop Anno II (strophes 34—49).

=MHG= One difficulty in describing the innovations in the vocabulary of MHG is that the texts from the preceding Old High German period are few in number and almost entirely clerical in nature, with the result that they provide evidence of only a relatively narrow range of vocabulary.

Nontheless, there are a number of recognizable new developments in the MIHG period This rise of the culture of the courts

Syntax
=Reinmar von Hagenau=

Manuscript tradition
All the main Minnesang manuscripts have substantial collections of Reinmar songs:
 * MS A (the Kleine Heidelberger Liederhandschrift has 70 strophes (19 songs) under Reinmar's name.
 * MS B (the Weingarten Manuscript) has 115 strophes (41 songs) under Reinmar's name.
 * MS C (the Große Heidelberger Liederhandschrift, the Manesse Codex) has by far the largest collection, with 262 strophes (64 songs) under Reinmar's name,
 * MS E (the Würzburg Manuscript) has 164 strophes (36 songs) under Reinmar's name with space for apprimately 50 more strophes.

Reception
Reinmar's paramount status, second only to Walther, in the century after his death is shown by his mention in Gottfried's literary excursus and his naming in the "Dichterkataloge" (lists of poets) in a number of other narrative works, such as Heinrich von dem Türlin's Der Aventiure Crône (c. 1230) and Hugo von Trimberg's Der Renner (c.1300).

The meistersinger of the 15th century generally included Reinmar as one of the "twelve old masters" of their craft.



= Erec=

Editorial Practice
Hans Ried modified his much older source to produce the text found in the Ambraser Heldenbuch, editors have largely attempted to identify and reverse his suspected modifications. Early editors made wholesale changes in order to resore the text to the type of normalised MHG. In addition, they were very ready to correct supposed errors in the text and irregualrities in versification.

Hartmann and Chrétien
Hartmann's poem shows many expansions, additions and other changes compared the Old French original, showing that Hartmann's interpretation of the story differs from Chrétien's in fundamental ways.

Hartmann's attention is much more stongly focussed on Erec.

It is Hartmann’s innovation to create a distinctive voice for the role of narrator. His narrator looms much larger in the story than Chrétien’s, often giving descriptive reports where Chrétien uses direct speech, making more comments, judgments, and asides, and introducing elaborate rhetorical passages that highlight his skill.

Hartmann also sets new accents in the characterization of the protagonists, Erec and Enite, sometimes adding, sometimes deleting material in order to change our understanding of their motivations. The net effect of Hartmann’s changes is to focus the story on Erec, whose active role as a knight in pursuit of honor is underscored. Enite becomes a more passive character, who is clearly subordinated to Erec.
