Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1877 edition. Excerpt: ...as such. We shall, therefore, now turn our attention, to the condition of the separate states of the German Empire. Ballads XX. and XX1. contain two episodes of the history of the Empire during this period of misrule. Count Eberhard II. of Wurtemberg reigned from 1344 to 1392 conjointly with his brother Ulrich IV. who died in that year without leaving an heir. Eberhard was surnamed ber (r)reiner, i.e. the quarreller. His lot was cast in a most disturbed period. The Swabian cities, encouraged by the example of the Swiss, attempted to shake off the yoke of their prince, and the lower nobility were likewise astir to free themselves of their duty and allegiance. The Emperors of this period, Charles IV., Wenceslaus, and Ruprecht, possessed little or no authority, and Eberhard was obliged to stand by himself against all his enemies. Uhland has related some of the memorable events of Eberhard's reign in a series of ballads, from which we have selected a poetical account of the battle of Reutlingen, May 14, 1377. Eberhard was engaged in the siege of Ulm, and had ordered his son Ulrich to blockade the city of Reutlingen, near which the castle of Achalm is situated. 3. Slugel is a very appropriate expression in this place, being employed both of birds and of armies, like the E. wing. (There is, however, another reading Sluge.) 4. tyeifler 2!rang here = IjeifjeS S3ebrangttoerten. The town was being hard pressed. 5. fid) erIjeben = auffrred)en, fietj aufmad)en.--ju Staijt is less common than iet 9iadjt or jur Stad)tjeit. 6. Urad) is a fortified town on the river Erms, to the east of Reutlingen. 8. Observe the omission of the verb finb or toerten. This is very frequent in a lively description. 9. The more common expression is grimmiger 3otn. 12..
