Vergilij Marõis dryzehë Aeneadischë bücher

Thomas Murner’s 1515 translation of Virgil's Aeneid, dedicated to the emperor Maximilian I, represented the first German translation of the Aeneid. “This translation is considered one of the most significant translations of the ancient text within German Humanism. Insights into the findings from Murner's Latin model pave the way for outlining his translation practices, revealing both a didactic intent, as well as an attempt to create a complete text that would be intelligible in the German tongue” (Frick, J.
