Die rhythmischen Martinsschriften Guiberts von Gembloux (BHL 5636 / 5637)

The life and veneration of Martin of Tours was the foremost literary concern of Guibert Martin of Gembloux ( 1213). In the centre of this biographical and didactical project Guibert placed two rhythmical poems, which he dedicated to the life of Martin and his illustrious venerators. In this book Peter Orth provides the first critical edition of both poems, together with an introduction and commentary.
