  hartmann von aue - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
Hartmann produced four narrative poems which are of importance for the evolution of the Middle High German court epic.
The theme of the latter--the cure of the leper, Heinrich, by a young girl who is willing to sacrifice her life for him--Hartmann had evidently found in the annals of the family in whose service he stood.
His most conspicuous merit as a poet lies in his style; his language is carefully chosen, his narrative lucid, flowing and characterized by a sense of balance and proportion which is rarely to be found in German medieval poetry.

Hartmann is responsible for introducing to German literature the new genre of Arthurian romance first produced by Chrétien de Troyes in France.

 A. Classen: Review of Hartmann von Aue, The Complete Works
Hartmann von Aue was the first Middle High German poet who introduced his audiences to the Arthurian material directly borrowed from Chrétien de Troyes, who in turn had borrowed it from Celtic sources.
Nevertheless, Hartmann's romances Erec and Iwein, his verse novella Poor Henry, and his religious verse narrative Gregorius, not to mention his wonderful courtly love poetry and his dialogue poem Das Klagebüchlein, are rightly considered masterpieces of late twelfth-century German literature and prove to be far more than simple translations from Old French.
Hartmann's verse structure is transformed into straightforward prose, which proves to be the only reasonable and most pragmatic approach to a medieval text today.
