Manuscript n of the »Nibelungenlied«, dated 1449 by its scribe Johann Lang, contains only the second half of the epic poem, but precedes this with a summary of the 'plot' of Part 1 in 19 stanzas. As such it can claim to qualify as a unified version. It displays interesting connections with the body of epic poetry centering around Dietrich von Bern and with the »Klage«. There are also striking parallels to the Nordic traditions. It is part of a South Hessian collective manuscript also containing the only version of »Alpharts Tod« and Johann von Würzburg's »Wilhelm von Österreich«. This edition gives a carefully restored version of the text with a concordance for manuscripts A, B, and C. It also has an index of missing and additional stanzas and an index of names.
