Portrait of Gottfried von Strassburg from the Codex Manesse (Folio 364r).
Gottfried von Strassburg, was one of the chief German poets of the middle ages.
Gottfried had learned his best lessons from Hartmann von Aue, but he was a more original and daring artificer of rhymes and rhythms than that master; he delighted in the sheer music of words, and indulged in antitheses and allegorical conceits to an extent that proved fatal to his imitators.

Gottfried von Strassburg, was one of the chief German poets ofthe middle ages.
Yet, glowing and seductive as Gottfried's love-scenes are, they are never for a moment disfigured by frivolous hints orinnuendo; the tragedy is unrolled with an earnestness that admits of no touch of humour, and also, it may be added, with afreedom from moralizing which was easier to attain in the 13th than in later centuries.

And so most tangibilia concerning Gottfried come to us only from during or after one of the most revolutionary eras in Western literature, beginning, let’s say, with the extinction of the Hohenstaufens in the mid-13th century and then fading before the supernova of Martin Luther early in the 16th.

However, the influence of Gottfried von Straßburg's rhetorical device of the chiasmus and its far-reaching effects on Wagner's music drama have been ignored and are the particular focus of this analysis of Wagner's adaptational process.
Gottfried's rhetoric with its frequent juxtaposition of opposites – often in chiastic pairs – serves as a metaphorical model for Wagner's harmonic treatment of the subject, where different tonal spheres coexist and where the conventional resolution of harmonic conflict is frequently denied.
In Gottfried, Marke is enraged, leaving the scene to fetch witnesses for this flagrant violation of courtly conduct.

 126-416 Gottfried von Strassburg: Tristan
This subject analyses Gottfried von Strassburg's verse epic Tristan, which is rooted in Celtic oral tradition and has resulted in a variety of imitations by Anglo-Norman, French and German poets.
Gottfried created one of the more compelling versions of the topic, combining the themes of passionate love, divided loyalties, adultery and the inevitable tragic ending.
Gottfried's version attracted admiration but also led to diverging interpretations and to the central question whether this was in essence a Christian or a pagan work.

Gottfried uses these other topographies as a process of further signification, to map what he considers to be model constellations of femininity and masculinity for his audience.
Thus Gottfried firmly anchors his story in Arthurian tradition, though the work's focus is decidedly anti-courtly and in defiance of the courtly moral code (since Tristan, the consummate courtier, thrives on the decidedly unchivalric intrigues of the court).
And this is precisely the relationship that Gottfried celebrates throughout his poem, culminating in the elaborate allegory of the cave of lovers.
