Heinrich von Meissen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Heinrich von Meissen is a name given to two different Mediaeval German poets:
- (Meister) Heinrich Frauenlob, from Meißen.
- Markgraf Heinrich III (Meißen)
As their poems survive in the same manuscripts, the potential for confusion is considerable. It is therefore unwise to use the form "Heinrich von Meißen" without adding either the by-name Frauenlob or the title Markgraf.
