Herr Goeli
Middle High German minnesinger From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Herr Goeli (or Göli) was a Middle High German minnesinger. Four of his poems survive.[1] They are found under his name only in the Codex Manesse. In three other manuscripts—the Weingarten Manuscript and the Berlin and Frankfurt Neidhart manuscripts[2]—they are mistakenly attributed to Neidhart von Reuental.[3] In fact, they are deliberate imitations of the village songs (Dörperlieder) of Neidhart.[1][4] They are of inferior quality.[3] Their incipits are:[5]
- Svmer der hat sin gezelt
- Willekomen svmer wetter svesse
- Wol gezieret stat diu gruene heide
- Wis willekomen nahtegal frowe
Goeli is usually identified with Diethelm Goeli, a knight of Basel recorded in various sources between 1254 and 1276.[1] Diethelm's wife's name was Sibilia. He was probably dead by 1280.[6]
