| Abstract | The Ambraser Heldenbuch (Wien, Österreichische Nationalbibliothek, Cod. ser. nova 2663), commissioned by the 'last knight' Maximilian I, is the most recent and most extensive entanglement of important and famous Middle High German texts in one manuscript. The first paper provides basic information about the work and its genesis, about its planning and production by a team of artists, and about its history of reception. The second paper presents the first entire transcription of the Ambraser Heldenbuch, which not only faithfully reflects the 25 texts of the codex but also contains several structural tags. The last paper focuses on the statistical examination of implicit rules of word separation at the end of lines in unique texts of the Ambraser Heldenbuch regarding language networks in the early 16th century. |
