Editing Wolfram von Eschenbach (section)

=== Lyric poetry ===
Wolfram's nine surviving songs, five of which are [[Tagelied|dawn-songs]], are regarded as masterpieces of [[Minnesang]]. Dawn-songs recount the story of a knight who spends the night with his beloved lady, but at dawn has to slip away unnoticed. Mostly it is the lady who wakes the knight up in the morning, but sometimes this mission is made by the watchman. No melodies survived. Two melodies are still connected to him, the ''Schwarzer Thon'', attributed to Wolfram in a 14th-century manuscript, and the fragmentary and unfinished epic ''Titurel'' (after 1217) with a complicated four-line [[stanza]] form that was often used in later poems.<ref>[https://www.oxfordmusiconline.com/grovemusic/view/10.1093/gmo/9781561592630.001.0001/omo-9781561592630-e-0000030511?rskey=UKV4K8&result=407 Wolfram von Eschenbach at the Oxford Music Online]</ref>
