The one-eyed singer, songwriter, and knight errant Oswald von Wolkenstein (surnameliterally "Cloud-Stone") was among the last of the great troubadours. A contemporaryof Villon, versed in Petrarch, and a Knight of the Holy Sepulchre, Wolkenstein was lostto history until scholarship in the 1970s recognized him as the German language's firstgenuinely autobiographical lyric voice.

Facsimiles of Wolkenstein'smusical compositions are included.
