Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The Nibelungenlied, translated literally as "The Song of the Nibelungs", is an epic poem in two parts, telling the story of Siegfried, his murder by the Burgundians, and the revenge taken by his widow Kriemhild. Dating back to the early 13th century, its authorship is unknown, but it is thought to have been written by an Austrian author from between Passau and Vienna for recitation in the Austrian court. The Nibelungenlied is the earliest complete telling of the legend, though versions of the story exist, including the Norse Volsunga Saga and passages in the Eddas, which, though written down later, are thought to preserve earlier elements of the story that had become obscured in the mediævalized German poem. Brief allusions to the Siegfried story also exist in much earlier works, such as Waltharius and Beowulf. |
