Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins and development of the Heliand, an epic Old Saxon poem adapting elements of the New Testament, while providing new insights into its intended audience. The author argues that the Heliand is not about the conversion of the Saxons, but rather, was geared specifically towards an established, literate Christian audience. The analysis relies heavily on the work of previous scholars, carefully assessing and reinterpreting their conclusions and assumptions. Through a close examination of the text, the author demonstrates that the Heliand's contents and themes deliberately align with the religious and cultural sensibilities of its intended audience. This book is an essential resource for researchers and students of Old Saxon literature, as well as for those interested in the history of Christianity in Northern Europe.
