More about the book
The narrative poem reimagines the medieval romance Poor Henry, featuring Prince Henry of Hoheneck as the central character. Unlike other interpretations, it steers clear of the "lives of the saints" narrative often associated with the title. Its popularity is evident, as the initial printing of 3,600 copies quickly led to five additional printings within the same year, highlighting its resonance with readers and its significance in the literary landscape of the time.
