Gottfried von Strassburg

Japanese: ゴットフリート(英語表記)Gottfried von Strassburg
Gottfried von Strassburg
A representative poet of medieval German literature from Strasbourg (now Strasbourg). His birth and death years are unknown. It seems certain that he was not a knight, but there are various speculations about his social status, including that he was a Strasbourg government official, a school teacher, a scholar, or a clergyman. Although there are lyric poems attributed to him, his forte was epic poetry, and his unfinished Tristan und Isolde (c. 1210) is a masterpiece of medieval German literature. The reason it was left unfinished is said to be his death or a stalemate in his poetry.

Japanese:
シュトラスブルク(現,ストラスブール)出身の中世ドイツ文学の代表的詩人。生没年不詳。彼が騎士でなかったのは確かなようであるが,身分についてはシュトラスブルクの官吏,学校の教師,学者,聖職者などさまざまな推測が行われている。彼の作とされる抒情詩もあるが,本領は叙事詩であり,未完の《トリスタンとイゾルデTristan und Isolde》(1210ころ)は中世ドイツ文学の代表作である。未完の理由は彼の死とも,詩作上の行詰りとも言われる。
