FRAUENLOB

This article appears in Volume V11, Page 43 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: FRA-GAE
FRAUENLOB , the name by which HEINRICH VON MEISSEN, a German poet of the 13th
century
 , is generally known. He seems to have acquired the sobriquet because in a famous Liederstreit with his rival Regenbogen he defended the use of the word Frau (i.e. frouwe,=lady) instead of Weib (wtp=woman). Frauenloh was born about 1250 of a humble burgher family. His youth was spent in straitened circumstances, but he gradually acquired a reputation as a
singer
  at the various courts of the German princes. In 1278 we find him with Rudolph I. in the Marchfeld, in 1286 he was at Prague at the knighting of Wenceslaus (Wenzel) II., and in 1311 he was present at a knightly festival celebrated by Waldemar of Brandenburg before
Rostock
 . After this he settled in Mainz, and there according to the popular account, founded the first school of Meistersingers (q.v.). He died in 1318, and was buried in the cloisters of the
cathedral
  at
Mainz. His grave is still marked by a copy made in 1783 of the
original
  tombstone of 1318; and in 1842 a
monument
  by Schwanthaler was erected in the cloisters. Frauenlob's poems make a
great
  display of learning; he delights in far-fetched metaphors, and his versification abounds in tricks of form and rhyme.
Frauenlob's poet), was edited by L.
Ettmuller
  in 1843; a selection will be found in K. Bartsch, Deutsche Liederdichter des la. bis 14. Jahrhunderts (3rd ed., 1893). An
English
 
translation
  of Frauenlob's Cantica canticorum, by A. E. Kroeger, with notes, appeared in 1877 at St Louis, U.S.A. See A. Boerkel, Frauenlob (2nd ed., 1881).
