Kudrun: with The Book of King Otnit and The Book of Wolf Dietrich

"I am a huge fan of Whobrey’s translations. These new English translations of Kudrun, Wolf Dietrich, and Otnit uphold the quality to which I’ve grown accustomed in his work. They do an excellent job of capturing the language and cadence of the texts, and are as accurate, readable, and fluent as the original texts allow them to be. I especially love the texts Wolf Dietrich and Otnit, and I’m thrilled they are now available for the first time in English translation. They are such fun to read, and I hope that students find their hapless heroes as entertaining and humorous as I do. In short, it is a delight to read Whobrey’s English translations of these tales, and I’m excited to teach with them." —Kathryn Starkey, Stanford University Read more
