Ludwig von Eyb the Younger. History and Deeds of Wilwolts von Schaumberg. Critical text, edited by Helgard Ulmschneider

《威尔沃特·冯·熊伯格的历史和事迹》(‘GT’)是由法兰科尼亚骑士路德维希·冯·艾比在他的英雄威尔沃特·冯·熊伯格的积极支持下撰写的。这是当时德国贵族最杰出的(汽车)传记--作为年轻贵族的榜样。它在四本书中概述，涵盖了从1468年到1505年的时期。威尔沃特在欧洲舞台上的多方面生活被用非常生动的语言全面描绘出来，并包含了许多重要的文化细节：他的贵族成长、冒险和锦标赛战斗、浪漫的小兵服务，特别是他作为一名杰出军阀和外交官的漫长职业生涯。第三和第四本书包含了德国对世界最好的描述--马克西米利安一世时代荷兰的历史斗争。许多文学典故记录了EYB的文学知识。这本带有计划插图的文本最初打算用于印刷，但从未实现。1859年，阿德尔伯特·冯·凯勒根据一份已知手稿(Wolfenbüttel，Herzog 8月Bibliothek Cod 55.2，8月2o)首次编辑了GT这一罕见的印刷品，没有任何评论。自从Eduard Beintker证明了1883年以来，斯塔茨凯夫·纽伦堡，纽伦堡HS。编号423实际上是与作者有关的原始手稿，作为沃尔芬布特尔法典的直接范本，新版被认为是必要的。这一新版包含了关键文本，提供了语言、文献和书目参考、地图、家谱和插图。该版本之前有一个导言，还包括作者的传记背景。页边空白处的注释便于阅读正文。

The ‘History and Deeds of Wilwolt von Schaumberg’ (‘GT’) were written by the Franconian knight Ludwig von Eyb the Younger with the active support of his hero Wilwolt von Schaumberg. It is the most outstanding (auto)biography of a German nobleman of the time – composed as an example for the young nobility. Outlined in four books it covers the period from 1468 to 1505. The multifaceted life of Wilwolt on the European stage is comprehensively sketched in very vivid language and with many culturally important details: his aristocratic upbringing, adventures and tournament fighting, romantic ‘minne’-service, and particularly his long career as an outstanding warlord and diplomat. Book three and four contain the best German description of the world-historical struggles in the Netherlands in the age of Maximilian I. Many literary allusions document Eyb’s literary knowledge. The text, with planned illustrations, had originally been intended for print, which never was realized.The ‘GT’ were first edited in the seldom available print by Adelbert von Keller in 1859, based on one single known manuscript (Wolfenbüttel, Herzog August Bibliothek Cod 55.2 Aug. 2o) and without commentary. Since Eduard Beintker’s prove 1883, that Staatsarchiv Nürnberg, Nürnberger Hs. Nr. 423 was in fact the original autor-related manuscript, which had served as a direct model to the Wolfenbüttel codex, a new edition was considered necessary. This new edition contains the critical text, provides linguistic, literature and bibliographic references, maps, family trees and illustrations.The edition is preceded by an introduction, which also includes the biographical backgrounds of the authors. Comments along the margins facilitate the reading of the main text body.
