Excerpts and translations set as parallel-text of three C13th South German verse chronicles: Rudolf von Ems's Weltchronik, the anonymous Christherre-Chronik, and the Weltchronik of Jans Enikel. They represent the perspectives of three distinct sections of medieval society: courtly, monastic and urban.
