Different Types of Love in the Works of Hartmann von Aue and Mechthild von Magdeburg

More about the book

The essay explores the complex interplay of various forms of love—self-love, divine love, and romantic love—in the works of Hartmann von Aue and Mechthild von Magdeburg. It highlights how these types of love enrich each other, creating a multifaceted reading experience. While Hartmann’s "Der Arme Heinrich" centers on romantic love intertwined with a quest for divine connection, Mechthild’s writings, rooted in her mystical devotion as a nun, reveal an inevitable engagement with earthly love despite her intent to transcend it.
