By analyzing Chretien's Cliges, Ulrich von Zatzikhoven's Lanzelet, Chretien's Chevalier de la Charette, and the Old French Prose Lancelot, as well as Andreas Capellanus' De Amore and Eschenbach's Parzival, Weigand presents a picture of the ideals of courtly love in Europe in the latter half of the twelfth and beginning of the thirteenth centuries. A long chapter on Parzival focuses especially on the introduction of Christian themes and changing ideas of the compatibility of love and marriage.
