Abstract

The invention of the printing press revealed the interest felt by the German public for the Troyan matter and the validity at that time of both the Buch von Troja by Hans Mair von Nördlingen and of its Latin source, the Historia destructionis Troiae by Guido de Columnis. Between 1474, date of the first printed version of Mair’s work, and 1482, year in which Ein hübsche Histori von der künngclichenn Stat Troy, wie si zerstöret wartt was published, the German printers brought to light a great number of works based upon Mair’s Buch von Troja. The 1474 version was modified and rewritten using other texts until the publishing of the 1482 hübsche Histori, which was much closer to the taste of that period. This article deals with this complex process of transformation.
